6210 headset n/w 'use phone microphone'

Hi, using a Nokia 6210, when I plug the standard OEM headset in, it comes up with 'use phone microphone' and the mic on the headset does not work which makes it difficult to use when in the car.

 

Cheers

Cheers mate but it didnt fix the problem, when I plug in the headset it asks;

 

Select Encancement;

- Headphones

- Lineout

- Music Stand

 

Seems as if its not recignising the headset, I have tried another headset, same fault. 

 

Should I have 'headphones' or 'headset' as default?

Re: 6210 headset n/w 'use phone microphone'

The headset provided with the phone is not intended to be used as a handsfree kit whilst driving (it is considered dangerous to have cables running across you whilst driving - you could catch them and distract yourself from the road - they are intended for the music and video players only. You have to use the phone mic because the headset has no mic.

 

For in-car use you need a wireless (Bluetooth) headset.
