REgarding bluetooth headsets and PS3

[Road Rash]

My PS3 doesn't seem to recognize the Motorola HS850. It "recognizes" it ut after the process of instant "installation" it fails to work with the PS3. I know the headset works. Anyideas?

Is it pairing up with any other devices? Cell phone, etc...

It appears that you aren't the only one. There are reports of this headset in particular that it works but has re-registration/pairing issue. There seems to be quite a few Motorola's with this issue.

I'm assuming that you've already done all this, but possibly not:

1 Put your headset into pairing mode.

a With the headset’s boom closed,
press and hold the Multifunction
Button E until the headset
indicator turns on (about
3 seconds). The headset indicator turns on.

b Release the button, then open the
headset boom. The headset indicator remains on.​

2 Perform a device discovery from the phone. For details on device discovery for your phone, refer to the phone’s user’s guide. When the scan is complete, the phone displays the devices found.

3 Select the Motorola HS850 from the discovered devices list and confirm following the on screen prompts.

4 When prompted by the phone, enter the passkey 0000 and confirm to pair the headset with the phone. The device ID is now stored in the phone’s memory. Pairing is successful when the headset indicator flashes 10 times rapidly.​

And for the part that might actually be the issue:

Your headset will only automatically initiate a paired connection (by opening the boom) with the last device it was connected to. If you want to connect your headset to another device in the paired device list, you must initiate the connection from that device. Whichever of the eight devices initiates a connection to the headset afterwards, that device then becomes the “last connected” device.​

Did all the above to begin with, and still no worky,worky. Last night I did go so far as to pair ir with my neighors cell phone and it works like a champ so I know its an issue with the PS3. If others are having problems and the ig majority of headsets eing sold are Motorola I would hope that Sony would address this in a later update... HINT,HINT,HINT...YOU HERE ME SONY???????

I've tried all the tricks one would with a PC periphereal device and tried unpairing then repairing and such still to no avail. Right down to making sure the headst was definetly "connected" in settings then ghone straight into Warhawk to look for someone to talk to for a test and ....nuttn'...

Feel free to add me as a friend and if I'm online we'll see if it's working. Mine worked fine in a chat but not while playing Lego Star Wars until I unlocked some ports.
