Switching earpieces Have been given a GN headset-unsure of model and have no instructions. I want to change the over the head for the over the ear (appparently interchangeable?) without destroying it! Any links to instruction pages?

FLIP IT OVER

Unplug the unit, then take the ear piece and slide the battery off .... When you have the battery detached from the ear piece, wipe off the metal prongs, leave it off for a few minutes, then put back together. Make sure you plug the unit back in. It will take a couple hours for the unit to be charged. That should take care of the issue.

It sounds like your microphone volume is too loud. Get someone on a call with you so they can tell you how it sounds as you adjust it. Turn down the mic volume by pressing the + & - buttons on the earpiece together once which puts the earpiece into mic adjust mode. Then decrease the mic volume by pressing the minus button a few times until it sounds right. The earpiece will automatically revert to normal mode within a few seconds.
If this doesn't work it may be that you need to adjust the compatibility setting for the new phone. This is the small black dial on the base station. The most common setting is 'A' but you may need to experiment with other settings for that phone.

This is a problem that can occur on this model after a couple of years. You can try a small amount of non petroleum based lubricant as a short term solution but the problem most likely lies within the small tactile switch that the button is actually depressing. The internal spring in the switch becomes fatigued over time and is a non replacable part. The headpeice should be available for purchase as a seperate item from your local headset specialist (we sell them here in Australia). It is a simple matter of registering the new headpiece to the base.

•First take your  device and hold it vertical.
•Looking at the earpiece that ressembles somewhat Alladin lamp, it's tip is positioned either at past 20 (for right ear) or before 20 (for left ear).
•Depending if it's one side or the other, you should turn the earpiece clockwise to 30 or counterclockwise to 30. So the "tip of the lamp", which is the ear channel of the earpiece in fact, is indeed at 30 past the hour.
•Then pull it out with a round motion downward, assuming the upper part is the blue light.
You can then change the side of the ear wire and or the earpiece for a different size supplied by RIM when you bought the device. I don't know how/where to get new earpieces. They don't seem to sell them separately...which is rather frustrating considering the price they sell this device!

The loud screeching is probably due to the headset mic volume being too loud, or the campatability setting on the base station is in the wrong position for your phone.
To register a new earpiece to a base station, simply put the headpiece on the charging dock and leave it there while you disconnect the power, wait about 20 seconds and then reconnect the power. All the lights on the base should flash a couple of times and then the green charging light will start fashing as normal. The headset should then be registered.

It only picks up certain digital rings. I changed the ringer on my phone and had the same problem. To fix it, I had to plug in the little microphone that plugs into the handset lifter and place the mic over the ringer speaker. Now it works fine.

needs to have the earpiece redsigned like the headphones provided for the radio on g600 model can i swap my we200 for a redisigned one like that please

change the dial settings on the side (there's letters from A to G)
