My friend gave me his bluetooth but i need the pin to connect it to my phone and i cant get it .how can I pair it to my phone without using a pin or making a new pin?

The pin or the passkey is "0000". To pair the SGH-T749 (Highlight) handset with a Bluetooth Device follow the steps below:
  1. Place the Bluetooth device in discoverable mode
  2. From the standby screen, press on Menu
  3. Press on Settings
  4. Press on Bluetooth
  5. Search for the Bluetooth device by pressing on Search, located at the bottom
  6. Press on Yes to Activate Bluetooth and start the search
  7. Press on the desired Bluetooth Device (if not shown press on the left or right arrows until displayed)
  8. If prompted, press the Passkey "0000" then press on OK
  9. You will get a brief message stating connecting followed by connected, if prompted press OK again
Note: The first time you try to pair with another handset, you and the owner of the other handset must enter the same PIN. Once the handsets have been paired, you will not need to use the PIN again.

My nokia E71 will not pair up with the Supertooth Buddy. The phone cannot seem to locate the buddy. the Bluetooth is on! Do you know why?

I had the same problem as you. I took the following steps to solve it.

- Powered off both devices.
- Turned on the Supertooth by holding the powerbutton until light alternates red/blue.
- Turned on phone, enabled bluetooth.
- Went to Connectivity->Bluetooth->(right)->options>"New paired Device".

It finally managed to pair the device.
Had to enter pincode (0000, which is default for all supertooths).

Hope it helps.

What do i press to pair my cark 11 with my phone

Try using the re-set button. It is under or near the battery. You might need a paper clip to fit in the re-set hole. If not see your provider.

Hello I am trying to install a new headset to my CS70 desk phone. The ruber earpiece on mine broke. How can I pair the new earpiece?.

When joining (or pairing) a Plantronics bluetooth headset to another device a lot depends on the other device. Assuming that you know the necessary steps of your phone, PC or other device for connecting a bluetooth device, all Plantronics headsets pretty much follow a set pairing procedure for connectivity. This one is for the Discovery 975:

1 Turn on the Bluetooth feature on your phone.
2 Turn the earpiece on. Press and hold the call control button until the indicator flashes red/white.
3 Use the commands on your other device to locate and select your earpiece. 9xx Plantronics.
4 If prompted for the PIN code or Passkey, enter 0000.

Pairing is successful when the indicator on your earpiece flashes white.

Note If your phone supports Secure Simple Pairing (SSP), you will not need to enter a PIN code or Passkey.

How do i pair sp 500 to my nokia n95 mobile

The Jabra user manual is located below - you'll need to reference it to determine which button is the Pairing button. After you turn on the Jabra, press and hold the pairing button until the blue light is solid (approximately 2 seconds). Set your phone to discover mode as follows:
Go to the Bluetooth menu under the Tools menu item
Select Options > New Paired device.
Select the device and enter 0000 as the passcode.
If you want the device to automatically pair when they are within range of each other, select the device and select Set as authorised.
That's all there is to it.

Syncing blooetooth

Headsets don't be synchronised, as syncing means to update to devices with each other.

Bluetooth headsets are paired. Pairing means that both Bluetooth devices recognize each other and trust each other, so you do not need to provide any type of confirmation.

So, follow the phone's manual to see how to switch on the Bluetooth and make it visible. Now, there must be an option like make a new paired device. Consult your manual for this. The phone will search for a deivce and they will be paired.

You can even pair a PC and phone, phone and phone and every kind of Bluetooth enabled devices.
