Christ, that sounds like what my mother would have searched for. Somehow you at least managed to put the correct terms in the title of your post.

This is not a new feature.

Has it always and does it now work with 3rd party headsets?

othersomethings•

not sure how far back, but I've used a lot of headsets (my husband gets samples from manufacturers) and some don't but most do. I'd have to think really hard about which ones specifically...I've tried 9 or 10 different headsets in the last year, but all were either Jabra, Plantronics, or hm. Maybe just those two. I forget.

I had the apple brand bluetooth headset since it was first introduced and it always did this. I'm not sure if it does this with 3rd party headsets, though.

It also shows up for bluetooth speakers and headphones, whether they report battery life or not.

It's not universally supported, is it? My Motorola S10-HD doesn't give me that icon.

jigglemybowls•

i havent tried with the Motorola. i think it only works for Jawbone as its an integrated function made by them. link :http://jawbone.com/headsets/icon/overview

Apple used to make a Bluetooth headset for the original iPhone; I think it's a standard.

I have original jawbone and it doesn't work with it. But that thing is like 5 years old.

It's the durability before you have to craft a new iPhone

Wouldn't it be simpler just to repair it using other iPhones you scavenge from the Wasteland?

Is it a crack pipe?

repost for all: http://jawbone.com/headsets/icon/overview.

this icon only enabled with jawbone wireless earpiece.

rhett121•

Not true. It's enabled by any headset that has the correct specs. My new Plantronics Voyager Pro activates it.

jigglemybowls•

let me rephrase as a previous post : i think it only works with jawbone.

jabancroft•

As stated above, it works with any headset that supports the protocol. Works great with my Plantronics BackBeat 903+.

It's not a Jawbone-only feature.

3
jigglemybowls•

duly noted thanks. i suspected that other headsets worked but i got some feedback that older generation headsets were not compatible with the function, although they work fine with the phones, the icon doesnt show up.

Those were really beautiful and clean. Too bad they never improved on them.

And that's how I learned what the Bluetooth icon was. Never tried it in 2+ years on 3GS.

How an I supposed to know what the icon was if I never used it? One day it just appeared when I accidentally turned Bluetooth on, apparently. Weirded me out for a while.
