Once we have turned bluetooth on both phones at the same time it indicates is is discoverable and looking for devices buts neither phone find anything. A third non iphone can detect and link with both iphones so they seem to be able to be detected but not detect anything - any help appreciated.

The iPhone can only connect to bluetooth headphones and some other accessories. No other phones can connect. It a bit stupid but i suppose it's to stop piracy.

How to get ios 6 on 3gs
There are two ways to upgrade the iOS version of your iPhone 3GS:
- via connecting the device to iTunes on a computer
- or directly from within the device, but only since iOS 5, it is possible to upgrade the iOS version without the need to connect the iOS device to a computer (over-the-air update)
just go to: settings - general - software update

Iphone 3GS not pairing to plantronics voyager 520
Without turning the headset on, turn the bluetooth on for the phone. Select the headset that is paired, and select Unpair. Then turn bluetooth off. Put the headset into the "discover" mode, by holding down the power button until the light flashes red and blue. Then turn the bluetooth on for the phone, and it should "discover" it. It should ask for the passcode, normally 0000. Once you enter that, it should pair. After that, you should be alright. You can turn the headset off and back on again and it should connect right away.
Hope this helps.

I just got a new iphone 3gs, having bluetooth
Hi, I have an iPhone also, you don't connect to other phones anymore, like if you did with normal mobile, if say you searched in a full room of people with the iPhone you would just find the printer in the corner!?!?, bizarre i know, but thats Apple for you, (2 steps forward, 5 backwards) you just connect to Bluetooth appliances like, your car, printer, pc/mac.. Thanks Mark
