Hey monkey, call me tonight and I'll tell you how to change the settings. You're setting is not on the correct accessory. Make sure your pick the PS3 headset at the very top of the screen that has the "3" stuck. Also, delete the other headsets as additional accessories.

Well this is what TW told me, He synched it up with his PIN number on his Playstation, so his mic should be ready to go. I read somewhere on an online source (doubt its the truth) that there is a known issue with the volume being really low on these mics, not the hearing volume.. the speaking one. 

Everything I found online people are saying that an update made all these mics stay at level 3 due to feedback. Seems kinda strange to me

Guess we need someone that has the version 2 of the official PlayStation Bluetooth Headset to find out.

Mine is also stuck on 3 and i can't select any other number, but i think ppl can hear me just fine. I synced my up using the usb. delete your mic and just try that.... u can't sync it with the charger you have to plug it into the actual mic at the top. Maybe that will work for you lover.

Mines a v1 and i had the same issues as seph and connecting via cables solved it. It has spent most of its life in my drawer cos one minute its fine then it breaks up. TW it was working fine last time when u told pinnacle to sort it in Rails and I could hear u although my headset wasnt on for some weird reason.
Cos I'm Wonderman...I'll take that knife and shove it up your a$$!

Just return the headset and get a jabra like Bain said. It's cheaper and works better.

I've got two Jabra BT125's. The price has increased since I bought mine. They're now $24.74 each on Amazon. they're really basic bluetooths and come with a USB cable to charge them with.

just remember that Sony's PS3 headphones are coming out in October for $99.00. they're supposed to be really good.
