Forgetting a Bluetooth device

[Gloops]

Hello everybody,

My mom uses a Fleep 242 phone from Logicom. As I remember it runs Android.
She wants to use a WH-CH520 headset from Sony with it.

They were paired once, the sound was nice, but the following days it was not possible to connect them together any more. Pairing seems more and more hazardous. The headset works good with a computer, but no more with the phone.

So it seems a good idea to "forget" the headset from the phone.
Hum ... Any idea how to do that ?
I downloaded lots of user manuals for that model, and surprisingly none told a word about the topic.

We found how to reset the phone, but we would like to keep the phone book.

I suggest you forgot it and get a new one

Oh, you mean put the phone to the dustbin ?

Forget the pairing with the headset and then try connecting again.

Yes, I did that, but it fails more and more frequently, so I guess some bad manipulations can have happened.

Well my brother came at home, so I could get richer information about the headset LED than "it flashes".
The battery charge of the headset was too low, after charging we paired the headset and the phone at the first time.
The buttons to set the volume display information in black on black background, but my brother was more at ease to distinguish which one is the +, and which one is the -. After the volume was set at the maximum value I was asked not to shout, which was a very good sign indeed.

So now the hardware runs OK, and we did not need to reinitialize it.

So I can update the question: does it happen on a Fleep 242 that a peripheral needs to be "forgotten" in order to use the default settings, and if yes where in the menu do we find that?

Typically, you don't have to forget devices, unless there is a problem like you experienced.

This was the meaning of the question ...

Since the manual doesn't have the instructions and seemingly not a lot of people have the exact device you are working with, the only answer that can be given will be a generalized one. In most cases, the procedure is the same/similar on all phones:

• Go to Menu
• Select Settings
• Select Bluetooth
• Go to Paired devices (the list of already-paired devices)
• Highlight the device you want to remove
• Press the Options key (or hold the center/OK button) — a sub-menu should appear
• Select Delete or Unpair if the Forget option does not exist

Naturally, this will require you to re-pair the headset again to the phone.
