remove / unpair bluetooth device

[Guest Amber2009]

Hi folks

Hope someone can help a newbie. I bought a bluetooth device which acts as a control unit for headphones. the first one was faulty, so i bought another (ta, amazon!). Problem is the Ascend still has the first device listed in its wireless & networks / bluetooth devices list, so while it will pair & connect with the first, dodgy unit (its going back tomorrow) it won't pair / recognise the second one that should be ok. How do I get the Ascend to remove the first unit from its listings, so I can pair with the one that works?

many thanks

Amber

From the home screen click menu, settings, wireless/Bluetooth the you can remove the device from there

I've been trying to use this approach, but if I press on the device it tries to connect. If I do a long press it offers to unpair, but it is still on the list once unpaired, so its not permitting another device of the same name to be paired. I want a "device manager" option, really, which I can't find

thanks for your help

Try "search for devices" after you have un-paired. That removes it from my list (using ICS)

It worked! Many thanks for your help

In case anyone is interested, it was the SD Soundwear bluetooth device (from Amazon), which you can plug any headphones or speaker into to. Nifty for £15

Hello there I am having same problem removing my redundant net book.

Could you tell me where I find the "search for devices" Sorry being thick but I am new to this phone and still learning but must say I love it.

Thanks for your help

With ics it is the same screen that lists paired USB devices. Systems settings, Bluetooth
