Problem with Jawbone

Problem with Jawbone

I've got the Jawbone Prime. It worked fine for a few days. Then even though I could hear fine, everyone said they could barely hear me. I contacted Jawbone tech support. They told me how to reset the Jawbone. That seemed to work. The next day, the same issue. I tried to reset it again, but it won't reset.

I don't know if it's an issue between the iPhone and the Jawbone or strictly a Jawbone problem.

Anyone else have this problem?

2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Mac OS X (10.5.8), Memory: 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

I keep getting offers from AT&T to give me a free phone, (not an iPhone). I may take them up on it and use the iPhone as an iPod Touch. Or give up on AT&T and go to Verizon.

Actually, now I can't get the headset to go into pairing mode. So I have to get another headset. I don't know if there's a problem with the phone as well, but the headset is definitely not working right.

Even if you get a new headset and seems to be working fine for a couple of days, you'll eventually end up having the same issues, as discussed on the thread a posted a couple of messages up.

If that's the case I can say goodbye to the iPhone and get another phone that works with a bluetooth headset, though in another discussion thread I've been informed that most people have no problem with the iPhone's bluetooth.

Right now, my problem is the headset will not go into pairing mode, so I can't pair it with any bluetooth device, not just the iPhone.

I got the replacement Jawbone. It pairs just fine. On this unit the buttons take A LOT OF PRESSURE to activate, so much so that I have to take it out of my ear, squeeze it between my thumb and fore finger and put it back in my ear to answer a call.

And the sound quality, sending and receiving is not great.
