Bluetooth Version

Hi Guys,

Just a quick question, I have bought a pair of earphones which are bluetooth version 4.1 but my tablet can't seem to find them. Do we know what bluetooth version our tablets are?

Version 4.0, according to this site: Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 N8000 - Full phone specifications.

It really shouldn't matter, because later Bluetooth versions should be backwards compatible with previous ones. Is there a Connect button on the earphones that you have to press first? Is the Note's Bluetooth set to scan for new devices?

Got it working, lets put it down to user error!

On another note, does anyone know how to use both a wired set of earphones plugged in and bluetooth earphones at the same time? Planning on a long train journey watching films and would be great if me and my gf can be plugged in at the same time?

Glad you figured it out! Unfortunately, you can't use Bluetooth and wired headphones at the same time. Maybe there's some sort of hack that will do it, but it's not possible on an unrooted phone, anyway. Just get a Y connector for the headphone jack.
