When I plug it in, the blue light flashes briefly then turns off. I've tried holding down the on button, both the on and volume up buttons, etc. I simply cannot get the blue light to stay on (device on). The user manual doesn't have any information about this. Any suggestions?
If I read everything correctly in the manual I believe the light only stays on when the device is in the pairing mode. If the light flashes every second, the headset is on a call, if the light flashed every three seconds, it is in standby mode.
Standby mode: is when the Jabra BT160 is passively waiting for a call. When you 'end' a call on your mobile phone, the headset goes into standby mode.
Make sure your phone is bluetooth equipped.
You must first successfully pair the headset with your phone. The manual shows you how.....
1. Put the headset in pairing mode Make sure that the headset is on. Press the answer/end button and press the volume up (+) button at the same time, until a solid blue light comes on.
2. Set your Bluetooth phone to 'discover' the Jabra BT160 Follow your phone's instruction guide. This usually involves going to a 'setup,' 'connect' or 'Bluetooth' menu on your phone and selecting the option to 'discover' or 'add' a Bluetooth device.
3. Your phone will find the Jabra BT160 Your phone then asks if you want to pair with it. Accept by pressing 'Yes' or 'OK' on the phone and confirm with the passkey or PIN3 = 0000 (4 zeros). Your phone will confirm when pairing is complete. In case of unsuccessful pairing, repeat steps 1 to 3.

Usually to solve some pairing problems shut off bluetooth completely(no lights) Push and hold button until bluetooth comes on,flashes then steady light,you may have to hold button for ten seconds or more.Then put phone in pairing mode.
When asked for pass code enter 0000.Phone should show connected to bluetooth device.

I had the same problem. The many instructions available don't have quite the right details. This worked for me:
1. Turn off the BT150 by holding down the answer button about 5 sec. until the blue light goes off and is not flashing.
2. Turn on the BT150 by holding down the answer button about 5 sec. until the blue light flashes.
3. Keep holding the answer button, and press and hold the volume + button for another 5 sec. until the blue light comes on solid.

First turn on the Jabra BT 150 by holding the power button for about 4 seconds. Then hold the + key and the the power button together for about 4 seconds and the power light will go steady. Then have your bluetooth capable cell phone search. It'll find it and when asked for a PIN just enter 0000. Tjis will change the jabra power light to blinking when paired successful.

Start with the headset powered on. Press and hold down
the call control button while also rotating the multi function dial
upward (away from the light) until the indicator light on the headset
starts flashing red then green. When prompted for passkey, enter
0000.
For the Plantronics M1000 (discontinued):
Hit and hold the volume/mute switch in until the indication light starts blinking.
For the Plantronics M1500 & A500 adapter
(discontinued): Turn the headset on and the adapter off. On the headset
push in and hold the mute/volume dial until the indicator light begins
to flash. On the adapter press and hold the blue power button for 10
seconds. The light on the adapter will flash once after 3 seconds-
continue to hold the power button for another-7 seconds until the
light flashes red. If the pairing is successful, the headset will
sound a tone and both the headset and adapter lights will turn off.
For both the Plantronics M1000/M1500 (discontinued):
If you remove the battery cover from the headset and then remove the
battery itself. On the Green PC board itself there will be a letter
followed by 4 numbers. These 4 numbers are your personal PIN code.
