Multiple bluetooth devices discoverable but iPhone discovers none. It is constantly searching but nothing turns up under devices. Tried pairing from Macbook and that fails. The 6 Plus I am going to return no issues.

If you are not willing to try a complete restore on your phone, I would call Apple and see what they have to say.

I've tried a hard reset but not a complete restore. I've tried every bluetooth device and google results have yielded little. Restore it is.

In order to complete a full restore, you must plug your phone into your computer, open iTunes, and restore from there.
Ah yeah thanks. Just posting hoping a power user had a similar issue and an easier fix. Or if this is a known issue that requires me to take it to Apple.
 
i did, in fact, think of this, but after some poking around- the reset only changes wifi and cellular aspects of the iPhones wireless capabilities.

Pretty sure it clears any bluetooth devices as well, figured worth a shot before the whole restore.
 
Long restore underway.
If you tried the reset option, still had no luck; your best bet would be to contact the nearest Apple to store to get the exact solution.
Full restore did not work. Starting from new did not work.
 
I had trouble with my 6S+ syncing with my cars bluetooth. I had to restore the Phone and also reset the bluetooth system in the car before they successfully paired. Just restoring the phone was not enough. Now, they work well.
