iPhone 6 (64GB) unable to find Bluetooth device after updating to 8.4.1

Am using a Bluetooth head set for a while,

but to my surprise, recently when i updated my iPhone 6 (64gb) O.S to 8.4.1, my iPhone stopped detecting any Bluetooth device

i tried reboot, restart, hard reboot except restoring from itunes i tried everything

I've tried with one of my friends iPhone6 (64 ) with same 8.4.1 OS and even it is not detecting any of the Bluetooth devices

assuming issue is with my Bluetooth headset, i tried to pair it with iPhone 4S IOS 7.X, it paired instantly and working as expected

I tried with couple of other Bluetooth headsets as well, none of them worked on IOS 8.4.1

I tried resetting network setting as well

does any one experienced similar issue or am i alone in this road

do let me know if any other work-arounds out there to make it work 🙂

Thank you

Hi! Try to reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on this device.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
Press and hold on the Home button
Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.

Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings

If this does not help, restore your device to factory settings. Note that this will erase the data from your device.
