Unpair bluetooth earphone with a lost phone - TechnologySage - 06-16-2021

I have a bluetooth earphone i purchased a while back. I had paired it with another android device and then after some time i stopped using the earphones. I sold the phone i had paired the Bluetooth earphones with and now i want to use the earphones with my current phone. The new phone cant seem recognize the bluetooth earphones and i have a suspicion that it is still paired to the previous phone and that's why it is not being visible. How do i reset this bluetooth earphones so that i can pair them with the new device?

  3. Release the button and set the headset aside.


  4. You can now pair it with the new phone.


  5. If prompted for a passkey, enter 0000 (four zeros). Some phones do not ask for the key
