With my previous BT cellphone, whenever a headset was paired, answering a call with either the phone or headset directed the call to the headset. This was a pain if I had set the headset down somewhere without turning it off.
WIth both of my 'Phones, I welcomed the subtle but very Apple attention to detail that allowed one to answer a call at either the 'Phone or headset. This makes perfect sense.
With either my Samsung, Plantronics, or LG headsets, when I receive a call, I can answer either with the 'Phone or the headset. If the headset is somewhere else, no problem, I take the call at the 'Phone just as one would with any other phone. One button, call answered. Natural, intuitive.
With the jawbone II, the call *usually* goes headset, regardless. If my headset is in the other room, touch Answer, touch Source, touch iPhone. After the intuitive function of the aforementioned headsets, three clicks instead of one. Sometimes I can answer at the 'Phone like I should, with one click. But most of the time it's touchtouchtouch.
Because of that behavior, I only use the Jawbone in noisy environments. People I talk to never hear the racket around me.
There aren't any BT settings on the phone for the headset.
Well, there aren't any that will help you with this problem. But then you already knew that.
