  3. i just got a new sennheiser momentum 3 wireless, and unable to go to the pairing mode after i connected it with a 3.5mm headphone jack.

    And still unable to connect to bluetooth after i removed it from the 3.5mm cable afterwards

    1. Calvin, were you able to resolve your headphone not pairing? My new headphone is also not pairing. The instructions says hold paring button for 5 seconds and there should be “pairing” prompt that says pairing with LED blinking between blue and red. I don’t get the voice prompt or the LED blinking. After a few minutes prompt says “no device found.” My new Samsung Fold and 2 laptops don’t see the headset on discovery.
