Losing Icon Earbud

I have no problem with the fit options for the earbud but how do you keep it from coming off the icon? When not in use I generally keep it in a pocket. The silicone being sort of tacky will drag and eventually it comes off. So far have lost one permanently and had to purchase the complete kit for $10.

Re: Losing Icon Earbud

Hi Jim,

 

I used to have the same problem, but if you'll do two things, you'll either eliminate or minimize the problem. First, twist the earbud 90 degress until it lays over the top of the Jawbone unit itself. That prevents the earbud loop (the culprit) from grabbing (friction since it's rubber) on the fabric of your pocket and anything else it can find in there. The second thing is not to put anything in the pocket with the Jawbone except your cell phone. The cell phone is too big to interact with the Jawbone unit and/or the earbud. Things like keys, the LAST thing you want in your pocket with your Jawbone (or cell) are not only metal and will damage both devices, but keys have an "octopus-effect," meaning they "reach out" all in your pocket and grab hold of anything in there. One or both of those should take care of it.

 

Hope that helps, Jay....

Thanks Jay. Had not thought about turning the loop and will give that a try.
