Bluetooth handset not working after upgrading to 2.2.1

I failed to get my bluetooth headset working after upgrading to 2.2.1. I have tried 4 different headsets (with different brands and models)and even bought a new one (Plantronic 640MP) and no luck also. I have also tried to hard reset and restore in iTunes but no success.

I can successfully paired my headset with iphone 3G but no sound transmitted over. I have been using my headset flawlessly before the firmware upgrade.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Sony VGC-LA38G, Windows Vista, None

Hello.

I´m new to iPhone and this forum

I am having the same problem with my iPhone but I don´t know if it´s related with 2.2.1. firmware since that came on the iphone right away when I bought it.

I can connect to handfree set and pair up fine, but no sound what so ever is passed to or from the handsfree set. The handsfree set works fine with other phones.

I tryed restore but it didn´t help.
I restored the iphone with itunes, the function "If you are experiencing problems ...." hit the button "Restore" e.g.:

After that it told me to "set up my iphone" and I chose "restore from the backup of" e.g.:

The links are not from my procedure, just something I found on the internet to describe what went on 🙂

Did anyone find a solution for this problem?

How often do Apple make new firmware upgrades? (hoping that will help)
