My Zivio will drop conversations back to the phone every 10 minutes or so. I can restore by clicking the button -- but I haven't had this issue with other headset using the sam phone.
I would like to buy a Gorillapod; my camera (Nikon Coolpix 8800) weighs 680 grams, so I believe I need the Gorillapod SLR. I would very much like to use the suction cup attachment as well, so I wondered if you plan to sell such an item?
Bought a 'pod today for my compact - based on all the glowing reviews... and I cannot move the locking ring without the aid of a cloth ! Cannot budge it with naked fingers :-(
Have I got a duff one, or are they all this rubbish ?
VERY dissapointed...
My Zivio has a lot of trouble connecting to my iPhone. I have to press the Joby button several times before it actually pairs and 1 out of 3 times it pairs, but no audio comes out of the Zivio and the person on the line can't hear me, and the audio does not work on the phone when paired with the Zivio, yet not audio or mic from Zivio. Also when I fully extend my boom mic the mic stops working. The mic only works when it's about 80% extended and when completely retracted. The design is wonderful - it's small, light, attractive, and comfortable, but it's only about 60% reliable and can take several minutes of tinkering with before it works. I am very technology literate and I've owned hundreds of electronic products - so if it's difficult for me to get to work with my phone it must be really really difficult for light users of technology. Please help! send me a replacement or I'll need to return the product (which would suck because I really like the headset).
A. The ear loops are worthless. It doesn't make the unit feel secure at all and it keeps slipping out of the ear loop magnet (one broke within weeks).
B. I believe the power button on my unit is defective. It will work for a short period of time and then I can't turn the unit on or off. I have to plug it in to charge (regardless of if it needs it or not) and then I can turn it on.
In terms of using the unit in my convertible it's great. But for the money I paid and the issues I'm having I'm very frustrated.
I have small ears and the smallest earpiece in the package is still to big. I cannot get a good fit with the unit. It would be nice to have something smaller available
Fix the ear loop. There's a reason a person would need to use the ear loop and this design is worthless. Create something that will actually help keep the Zivio in place.
i'd like to buy the zivio boom,but i'd like to know if now there is a new version!i have seen the problems in \"report problems\"and i'm sorryed to read \"magnetic holder\",volumes problems,and others!and so?
Is it not possible to fasten the SLR-ZOOM without any extra equipment? When I try to fasten it to my Canon 40D, the screw seems to be a few mm to long, so the camera is loose and rotating.
I lost the bottom gray "foot" and one section above it for my Gorillapod while packing on the Sierra's last week. How can I get a replacement? I think I have added a picture of my problem tripod.
Thank You,

Lost a leg on my slr zoom... worked great all 4th of July weekend and when I pulled it out of my backpack it was missing a leg. I was able to slide it back in but it still is loose and I am mighty sketchy about putting my new camera and lens back on it. What should I do?
My Zivio arrived after a year of discovering its existence. I wanted to share my first impressions and experiences. Ordering online went smoothly and the ordering system instantly sent out the purchase confirmation emails. I was surprised at the low price and didn't hesitate to order. It's ironic I got your announcement email on my iPhone and I had to wait until I got home since the website won't load on my phone. The free FedEx Ground shipping was a great touch. It was easy to track using the link on the shipping confirmation email. I was at the Mail Center 20 minutes after it was delivered. I was surprised at the size of the shipping box and I'm stunned when I unpacked the Zivio box. The Zivio itself looks so good in the website pictures and the box is a first class presentation. The attention to detail with the magnetic cover to the slide out tray is right up there with the boxes for my Bang and Olufsen desk phone and my Apple iPhone. The packaging gave me high expectations for the performance of the headset. The directions are clear and educated me quickly. I plugged the shorter charger cable into my iMac's keyboard USB port and the charge was done in about an hour. I have lots of experience with electronics and the obvious quality was just like the photos. The lighting colors, the feel of the exterior, the shine of the metal parts, the fit and finish of the buttons and earpieces ooze excellent engineering. Ok, I have one quality control gripe here. Whoever packed my headset left a big fingerprint on the chrome. I wiped it off and the beautiful polished luster erased the annoyance. The pairing to my iPhone happened on the first try and I'm trying out all the ear pieces and the ear hook for the best fit. The headset is so light I can trust it to stay in place with the small clear ear gel and no ear hook. After a few minutes you don't hardly notice it. I'm familiar with the Nitinol boom and its shape holding properties. With the boom extended and a little pressure toward my mouth, the boom takes on a great curve that hugs my face. So now its 9:30 and I'm calling people that won't mind a late call to break it in for sound quality testing. I didn't tell them about the headset for a few minutes and none of them could tell it was a headset. The sound was clear and distinct just like my digital headset with a sound tube boom that I use with my B&O desk phone. The sound in my ear was perfect and I had to lower the phone volume because the clarity made it easy to hear. All this is relevant because I have 5 other so called \"quality\" bluetooth headsets sitting in the closet because I couldn't hear and people couldn't hear me. So I went to church today with my headset on and I was stopped 3 times by friends that saw the boom and had to know where I got it. They know I'm a technophile and this was nothing they've ever seen. One thing I have to get used to is how easily I can accidently press the last dialed button when I put it in my ear or in my pocket. I have to ask, can you figure out how to hear voice mails on my iPhone? I know the iPhone does something different for playing voice mails so I'll just use the speak phone to compensate. So after 2 days of use in the house and outside, I believe my Zivio is the World Class, top-of-the-line product I expected it to be ever since I read about on the web. The extendable boom does exactly what its supposed to do and its the perfect companion for my black iPhone. I can't wait to walk into the Mac store and see how long it takes to get noticed. I feel that for what I received in performance, appearance and presentation that its bargain priced. I buy the best I can find and if I was in a high end electronics store like B&O, I would not hesitate to pay $250-$300 for it. Thanks for making a great product and not \"cheaping out\" like the headsets that hang in blister packs in the mall. There will always be a market for professional grade hardware that helps people reliably communicate.
I purchased a small gorillapod late last year. It is a brilliant product! Unfortunately some of the joints have become loose and it just won't hold the camera up anymore. What should I do?
By the way the cameras I have been using have been the Casio EX-Z750 and the Ricoh GR II digital.
With the phone stationary lying on a desk, headset on same side as phone, the sound volume sometimes fluctuates. The volume drops low momentarily and then goes back to the normal level.
If you use this company's products or services, we'll add the company to your dashboard. If you work for this company, we'll add you as an employee. Got it, thanks!
