Problems with iPhone 4s and bluetooth ear piece?
Hi, I was wondering if anyone else is having a problem with the bluetooth on their iPhone 4s (5.0.1), specifically when paring with a Plantronics ear piece? Right now this is what is happening with my phone:
I'll be using my bluetooth ear piece with no issue. But if I shut off the ear piece and turn off bluetooth, and then I go to make a phone call with the handset, occasionally I cannot get the call to connect with sound. It appears that the calls are actually connecting, b/c the people on the other end report having received my calls, only without sound. Also, related to this problem, sometimes the handset will get stuck in speaker phone mode, where I can hear the person on the other end, but they cannot hear me--something that always happens after I've been using my ear piece.
In the past, doing a hard reset on the phone has resolved these issues for my phone, however, just now it did not, and I was stuck not being able to make calls at all for over 30 minutes. Even when I reconnected my ear piece, the connection was garbled and then it disconnected altogether.
If anyone else has had this issue, or if you have a solution to the problem, I would greatly appreciate your feedback.
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.0.1
