Question
Can I answer my cell phone normally when Bluetooth is on? And, if I do answer my phone normally, can I then switch to Bluetooth? (Like, with a regular headset, you can plug in the headset while you're on a call.) (I have a Jawbone, if that makes any difference; phone is a Samsung Juke.)
If the bluetooth is on, then no. The better way to do this is to not have the bluetooth on and then when you answer your phone, switch to the bluetooth (just turn it on and then you can transfer the call to the Bluetooth. It is a big mistake to leave Bluetooth on, it uses up the battery in the bluetooth and the phone. I hope that helps. thanks. DebiN
