I just bought Nokia BH-111 (http://nokia.ly/ACiqj6) bluetooth stereo headset and I can't pair it with my Omnia 7. Works fine with Nokia 5230 phone, so it's not a problem with the headset. The phone does not even detect the headset, it keeps showing "searching" and nothing happens.
This is what is says about compatibility:
"All phones, music players and other devices that support Bluetooth v. 2.1 + EDR, Handsfree Profile 1.5 and Headset Profile 1.0"
This microsoft support article ( http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2449475 ) has this to say:
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP 1.2)
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP 1.3)
Hands Free Profile (HFP 1.5)
Headset Profile (HSP 1.1)
Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP 1.1)
So as you can see, WP support EVERY one of those profiles and standards. What's the problem there?

If you have previously paired your headset with a device (5230?), press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. The green indicator light starts to flash quickly to indicate that the headset is in pairing mode.
It should now be visible to other devices for pairing.

Problem solved.
It seems my phone is one in the seres of Omnias that have some issue when both Wifi and bluettoh are on.
So after i turned wifi off, it now works. Awkward, but works.
