I recently purchased 2 Jabra BT5050 Handsfree Speakerphones, one for each of the Blackberry Curve 8330's my wife and I have. Pairing, connection and use of the unit for my wife was no problem with her Curve; my issue arises once I have my Curve connected (pairing and connection is no issue). Basically, there is no automatic transfer of calls I make via the Curve to the Jabra unit; I must push the button on the Jabra to have it go through the handsfree speaker. This should happen automatically, like it does on my wife's Curve.

I have contacted Jabra who indicated it was most likely a Bluetooth communication issue between my Curve and the Handsfree unit and suggested a Curve battery pull. This did not fix the problem, nor did exchanging the Jabra unit for another one. So I have concluded it is a potential issue with my phone. My carrier technical support people are stumped as to what it might be as well; I even performed a handsfree wipe at their request to see if that would do anything, which is didn't.

Has anyone else encountered this issue or a similar one. I have seached many forums across the internet without any luck. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks!

Go into bluetooth options and make sure "discoverable" is set to yes.

Thanks Renocat. However, whether or not I am in "discoverable" status, the calls still do not automatically transfer over to the handsfree unit as they should.

A small note: a few weeks back, my Curve started to do somethings out the of the ordinary including the lost of the audible sound of dialing when I was making a call. Now when I make a call, I hear nothing; the call just connects!

I get the same thing on my storm. I went out and bought a new headset thinking the old was was trash ...same issue. I have to push speakerphone and then again to bluetooth. Defewats the purpose of hands free
