Droid !


Finally jumped in and got the Droid. Have been thinking about it since they came out and dragging my feet (big surprise), until Jamie and I saw an add this weekend for buy 1-get one free. Dove in.

Pairing with Jabra BT2040
This is my cheap-o bluetooth headset, which originally did not pair correctly. Worked on it again tonight and got it working. Turns out the first time I never got it into pair mode.

Here is the manual for the headset, but I couldnt get into pair mode by holding down for 5 secs like it says - it would just turn off. Finally got into pair mode by doing this:
when it's OFF, hold down the button to power it up, but KEEP HOLDING IT DOWN, then I get a solid blue light (which tells that it's in pairing mode)

Now the Droid is happy to discover it and pair.

FYI, if the manual is gone someday:
  • Solid blue light = in pairing mode
  • Slow single flash = connected to phone, in standby mode
  • Slow double flash = not connected to phone
  • Quick single flash = active on call
  • Quick double flash = incoming/outgoing call on headset
  • Triple flash = low battery
