I have the blueAnt Q2. I thought it would have better reception. I like my phone on my right hip and my earpiece in my left ear. I'm 6 foot 2 inches tall, and when I use it, it seems like it's struggling to keep a signal, or just loses it all together. If the phone and the earpiece is on the same side, all works fine. I'm of average build, and no steel or cement in me. smiles. I thought that I shouldn't have this trouble. Any solutions, suggestions, or work arounds? Thanks, Thom

I don't know if this will help, but here are the steps. You probably know them already but I'm wondering if you ever did the step where you tell it to pair if it doesn't initiate the pairing process. Also here is the tech support number at the end of the two sets of steps. The first part was just registration so I didn't include that. Even if you think it was trying to pair, it may not hurt to try this; from your description of telling you a phone wasn't found it sounds to me like it might have not actually gone through pairing. Pairing Your BlueAnt Step 2: Activate Pairing Mode on the Q2 1. If the Q2 is not switched on, turn it on by sliding across the power switch on the back of the Q2. 2. Put the Q2 in your ear. 3. If this is the first time you have used the Q2 it will go straight to pairing mode, and you will hear the voice prompts start to talk you through the process.If this doesn't happen, click the Multi-Function Button, wait for the Q2 to ask you to "Say A Command", and then say "Pair Me". 4. If you have a phone connected, the Q2 will remind you that your phone is connected and ask you if you want to enter pairing mode. Say "Yes". 5. The Q2 will tell you that it is now in pairing mode, and start to talk you through the pairing process. You now need to activate Bluetooth on your phone, and use your phone's Bluetooth menu to search for devices. Step 3: Select Your Phone Step 4: Apple iPhone Now you need to use your iPhone to search for Bluetooth devices: 1. Select Settings. 2. Select General. 3. Select Bluetooth. 4. Wait for your phone to search for devices, then select your BlueAnt device from the list. 5. If you are prompted for a PIN, enter 0000 (four zeros). 6. Select Connect. Your BlueAnt device is now paired. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.

I have the Iphone 4 and I recently purchased the Blue Ant q2 blue tooth earphone. I should point out that I already have another bluetooth earphone but, I thought I might like this one better because it actually stays where I put it. The other one keeps falling off my ear. Anyway, I tried to pair with my phone and I just can't get it to happen. Is there a limit to the number of bluetooth devices that can be paired with the phone? When I go into the bluetooth area in "settings", there doesn't seem to be any way to add a new device and the q2 doesn't show up there. I have taken out the other bluetooth earphone but, that didn't seem to make a difference. I listened to some instructions on the Blue Ant site and it would seem that I should be able to pair quite easily. But, after a few minutes, I get a message that says that no phone is found and to be sure "bluetooth" is enabled. It is. I've disabled and enabled again just to be sure. I hope someone can get me sorted out. Thanks. Debbi -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
