Help Deleting Blue Tooth Devices

How do I delete a Bluetooth device from the list under "available devices"? It has the same name as a current paired device (because I paired it to the previous device that I had to return to the manufacturer for repair), so it could be confusing. When I press on the listing all it does is try to pair with the device, Doesn't give me any option to delete it.
 
You should be able to hit menu button and "more options" and choose to forget or modify. You will also need to make sure the devices don't auto connect. For my phone I can choose "forget" and it never happened. For my last phone it was more of a project.
 
Go into 'Settings' > turn on Bluetooth > then press the Bluetooth bar to the left of the switch you just slid across to turn it on > a page will open showing the paired devices with a little cogged wheel to the right of each of those > select/press the cogged wheel of the one you don't want to appear anymore > another page will open giving you options to either 'Rename' or 'Unpair' - select Unpair. Job done.
