OPN 1’s new phone with 14.2 and it blasts a burst of static in the right ear most times when the phone is sending audio to the ’s.
I did the Forget and re-paired. No better.
I rolled back to my old iPhone and no problem.
Clearly it comes with a iPhone 12 Pro Max on 14.2.
Heads up!

This has been discussed in many threads for days.
Hi all, I’m writing on behalf of my partner who just purchased an iPhone 12 pro, switching from her Samsung S7. She’s had her Resounds with mfi connected to her iPad pro using the MFI compatibility for the last year with no issue. But with the iPhone 12 pro, when she connects them, she gets a massive amount of static from both hearing aids, and then 1 would cut out (alternates between right/left cutting out), and sometimes both just die out completely. She’s done every possible troubleshoot …
As I have previously reported, I have had static over both voices on phone calls with my iPhone 11 Pro, Phonak M90s and P90s, and iOS 13.7 and 14.2. A similar problem has also been reported with Resound and Starkey HAs. For me the problem is solved, but only for several hours, by rebooting the phone. OK, a problem with the iPhone, right? BUT what utterly baffles me is that the problem is also solved by turning off my left HA! (As is the default, my right HA is the one that connects to Bluetoo…
I just got an iPhone 12 pro with IOS 14.1. When I use email and text I am frequently getting a very loud static in my starkey hearing aids. There wasn’t a problem with the old phone. Anyone else having this issue?

I have the OPN 1s paired with an iPhone 6 Plus with the same random static issues. I had problems in recent time frame. Phone has now updated to iOS 12.4.8. You would think that since the integration with hearing aids has caused many people to purchase newer phones that manufacturers would at least attempt to confirm compatibility with various aids.

I have OPNS1 and OPN1 aids and the iPhone SE 2020, and also the iPad mini 5 on IOS14.2 and I am not having any static issues, but I have to say I did have some static with IOS14 and 14.1.

Apple has released iOS 14.2.1 it fixes the MFI issues with iPhone 12.

In case any user of an older iPhone (like me) wonders why they don’t get iOS 14.2.1, it’s only for the iPhone 5G 12 lineup according to Phone Arena7.

Hi, I just loaded 14.2.1 into my offending 12 Pmax phone overnight.
Here’s hoping things got more better

Well, it has been a couple of hours now since I ’ed up following the load of 14.2.1 in my iPhone 12 Pmax and I would say Apple got close. The loud static seems to be gone.
When I get an alert such as a timer or notice of eMail receipt I do get a tad of a garble in what was a clear alert sound. The volume of the garble is not louder than the programmed sound.
95% is better than what it was.

End of the day report, 14.2.1 has fixed the static blast on my iPhone 12 Pmax.

That’s right. It’s because the iPhone 12 uses a different Bluetooth chip than earlier iPhones and Apple had allowed a bug to slip through in the firmware for iPhone 12 release. IOS 4.2.1 fixes that and a couple of other bugs that only affect iPhone 12.

Over the past week my right ear keeps losing connection to my iPhone 7 iOS 14.2. I’m not sure if it’s an aid issue, phone/iOS issue, or Oticon app issue. Thoughts?

The first thing I would do is reboot the iPhone, if that didn’t help, and you only had the aids paired to the iPhone, I would forget the aids on the iPhone reboot then pair again.

Have you updated the iPhone firmware? If it’s still on IOS 14.2 then that is likely part of the problem. You need IOS 14.2.1 or the current version IOS 14.3
Edit: Sorry, IOS 14.2.1 is only for iPhone 12.
Otherwise I agree that restarting the iPhone is the main thing to try.

We just got upgraded to iOS 14.4 and a major reason for its release is that it addresses some critical iOS security issues that according to Apple have already been actively exploited. There are OS updates for the iPad and Apple Watch, too. So all should upgrade ASAP.

I’m using iOS 14.4.1 on my new iPhone 12 and the audio quality in my Oticon OPN 2 is UNBEARABLY bad.
It was, no surprise, fine in the iPhone 7 I just switched from.
And, also no surprise, when I call Apple support about this, they (act like) they have no idea what I’m talking about, despite all the complaints on their own forum.

This was well discussed. Apple fixed the problems in 14.2. I am now at 14.4 and working well
Load the upgrades.
