I'm trying this for the first time: a soft reset of the band?

How does one do I soft reset on the Band 2 ?

switching it off and on i guess - though you can check what long pressing the power button does

Have you already paired a BT headset before connection you Band 2 with your WP?

Yes.....a BT speaker. I've done a little experimenting with it. When I play music from my phone using the built in speaker, I can connect no problem. When I have a pair of wired headphones on it also works like a charm. It seems when I stream the music via BT that it has problems. It worked last Thursday when I received my band from Best Buy. I am on the latest Redstone insider preview build (393) so that may have something to do with it. I am hoping that the new firmware (053) for the 950 XL will fix it since that is suppose to bring BT improvements.

I also use a BT headset with my L950 and Band 2: the "trick" is to connect the Band 2 first with the phone - especially with Groove (by double press the power button on your Band 2), and after that connect the BT headset with the phone...
Not comfortable in some situations, but that workes for me...

Mine is doing the same thing.
Fast ring on my ICON 14393.
My Band 2 is always connected via Bluetooth on my phone. When I get into my car, I then connect to my aftermarket Bluetooth device (has USB and aux out that plugs into my cars aux in).
I still have the same problem. I don't remember if I have tried using it before 14393. I've only had it for a few weeks.

Press the power button until the screen goes red.

Try: Before connecting to the BT device in the car, connect your Band to Groove music with the double button press, then connect the phone to the car. That's how I do it with my BT / Aux-in device.

Sorry, power and action button together.
