Welcome aboard @john11smith @mkobi @radar696 !

Thank you to yourself and any others that may have mentioned me.

I decided to drop in and post after reading a thread about a Plantronics Bluetooth earpiece that had some useful info in it.
So I decided to post my own thread with an issue and some comments pertaining to my personal Plantronics Legend earpiece.

I honest can't say that I'll be a regular but I will be sure to look around and see what other useful info I may be able to find.

I hope everyone has an enjoyable day.
And to those of you in southern Texas, please try to keep safe.
I live in the Detroit area and we received over 7" of rain in one day about 3 years ago and that made a big enough mess.
I don't know how I would deal with 4 or 5 times that amount all at once.
That would make an significant change even in the Great Lakes that almost surround this state!

I have ended up running the battery totally dead on my bluetooth twice now and both times I have had difficulty getting it to take a fresh charge.
Plus the 1st time it happened I had a terrible time getting it to work properly when I would answer a call.
As soon as I answered the call it would disconnect from the phone.
I would then have to hit the bluetooth button and it would reconnect right away.

In a last gasp I ended up using the updater make a small change to the programed settings.
It cleared it up.

This last time I had a very difficult time.
It didn't matter what I tried, it just would not link for the initial charge.
Finally it linked up and now it appears to be fully charged and functioning.

This really concerns me though.
I'm thinking that 1st the earpiece should turn itself off before the battery is fully discharged.
2nd I would like it if once it got close to dying if it would give me a minute by minute countdown similar to how it tells you how many hours of use are remaining.

I happen to have one:
I have issue with it from time to time... like now,. Turn it on it connects fine,.. go to voice dial - it disconnects (without voice notification)...

Biggest grip beyond that is that it falls out of my ear,.. regardless of which of the ear pads are in.
Well I can'thelp with it falling out of your ear since I do have to press mine back into the ear from time to time.

I can help I think with the disconnect issue though.
Have you used the Hub program that you can download?
It allows you to update the software and adjust the settings to your preference.

I have used this to fix a disconnect issue.
Just by changing the settings a small bit and then saving them to the earpiece.
You can then go and change them back to your previous settings once you have completed the 1st step.

I only seem to have these issues if I run the battery down to the point where it turns itself off.
Go figure.

Just the quick update seems to have fixed my glitch.
I can't guarantee that it will work as well for you but give it a try.
Plus it will help you keep the software updated to the latest level if you haven't done that yet.

It would be nice if they would give you the option of a factory reset.
I've felt all along that would work best for the problem I was having.

I hope that works for you.
When it's working properly it's hard to beat in my opinion anyway.

Thank you for your response.

First and foremost I would have swore that I posted this as a Plantronics Legend earpiece not the Voyager as it shows in the thread title.
I'm not really sure how that happened.

I have had 2 other earpieces prior to this one and those were Voyagers but both have now passed on to electronic heaven.

I'm sure that anything I ask for will mostly fall on deaf ears simply because they have moved on to newer models.

I can say that I did end up using this earpiece once while I was running the push mower and my son on the other end of the call could not hear it.
He was surprised when I told him the mower was running and I had to finish the lawn!
He said what mower?
He couldn't hear a thing except for our conversation!
I was impressed!

I've read how many people have their favorites from other brands but unless something drastic happened I will go back to Plantronics once this model dies.
