It can sometimes depend on the firmware in the headset. For example,
an older Jabra 200 won't work with a Nokia 6600. Whether it's the
firmware in the Nokia or the Jabra that is to blame is debatable. But
on the Jabra, at least, there is a number printed on the headset
telling you the firmware edition and if it is an old one it won't
always work with a Nokia phone. (AFAIK Jabra will replace headsets
with dated firmware free of charge.)

You don't say what brand your headet is, but hth anyway...
