Odds are your bluetooth device was connected to your previous phone. Here is what I did to correct this problem.


On your old phone, go to it's settings and go to bluetooth and disconnect the device or forget the device.

Consult the owners manual of the device you're trying to connect, or look it up on the internet to get the instructions for that device to pair with bluetooth.

Follow the instructions on how to pair that specific device. Some want you to have your iPhone X turned on and searching for bluetooth devices, and some do not, so follow that manufacturers directions as if it is a brand new device that has not been paired yet.


This worked for me, and all is good in my iPhone X world now.
