How to repair a forgotten Bluetooth device While trying to pair my Bluetooth earbuds to someone else’s device, without knowing the consequences I clicked the “ forget device “ button. I assumed I could just repair it but I was wrong. I powered my phone off and on again, I’ve turned my Bluetooth off and on again, I have even tried resetting my network settings but it didn’t help. I’ve read other people’s discussions on this topic and the person just replied , “ put the device in pairing mode” but these earbuds of mine are always in pairing mode and there is no way to turn it of or on besides putting them in the case and taking them out again ( which I have tried ). I just got these earbuds and don’t want them to go to waste. I thought about resetting all settings but I would like to know the list of content that would be reset during the process. Please Help! The earbuds are called Jbl 220 wireless earbuds.

iPhone wired earbuds needing Bluetooth I have read the threads here where people are asking about wired earbuds needing Bluetooth. The tech support canned response is to turn off and restart or make sure the iOS is up to date. The problem is that there are aftermarket earbud replacements, I know of and have used some from 5 below, that are actually identical to the wired earbuds that used to come with an iPhone that plug into the lightning jack, but they are actually Bluetooth headphones that use the lightning jack to power them rather than be run through the lightning jack for sound. The question that should be addressed is how to put them into pairing mode so they work with the phone. I was plugged into my phone but listening to music on my wife’s phone because they were paired with her phone. I hope this helps the Apple support database to have more pertinent information than just the two things most people do before they even contact support.
