Question standard earpiece/headset

Please Login to Remove!

I like to use the hands free option when driving...but the standard earpiece that came with my Curve is not working? I've tried using the one from my old Razr--it looks the same, still nothing.
I use the USB to sync, so I think that works fine...
Please help!

You should try joining the 21st century and use Bluetooth. Not trying to sound like an ass, but going wireless is the way to go esp with so many options out there.

I'm confused by your OP. You mention the USB port, but the USB port is not used for the BlackBerry Headset. Can you clarify?

The Razr headset plugs into the usb port since there is no other connection.

If you received a headset with a usb plug on it, that's not a standard Blackberry headset and I would not use it or the Razr one. The Curve's headset is a round 3.5mm plug and plugs into the circular headset jack.

monkeypaw, thank you for pointing that out to me. I found the box my berry came in, and there was the appropriate headset.
You're a lifesaver and I should be a blond!!! (just kidding to all the blonds out there!)
thanks!
