bluetooth will not turn on (focus s) - Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

for some reason my bluetooth stopped working. when i turn it on, it will search then immediately turn off.
i've rebooted, pulled the battery, updated to 7740, then updated to 8107 and still no go.
any ideas short of a factory reset? i really do not want lose all my data.

this obviously is an issue with something in my data.
i did a backup, then factory reset, bluetooth worked. i restored data, bluetooth didn't work. i factory reset again, then just resynced and reinstalled apps manually, bluetooth is working.
oh well, guess i get to start over with all my games again.

[Q] (Q) Bluetooth connection error

Good day,
Hoping someone can assist. I just re-installed Gingerbeast and now I cannot get my BT devices to connect.
I wiped cache, including dalvik. I did backup my BT settings via Titanium, which may be the issue.
It recognizes the devices and says it is paired but not connected.
Also, the car now prompts me to enter a password, which it never did before. I enter the code and it still will not connect, just keeps asking me for a new code.
Any assistance, welcome as always!
You are most likely correct. I think Titanium caused your issues. It may have backed some other system data up for bluetooth that is incompatible with your new ROM. Have you tried to remove all connections and start fresh?
Word to the wise, never back up or restore system data as it can cause huge issues. I would reflash with a full wipe and restore only apps and app data and see what happens

Help?? Wifi seems to completely freeze up phone...

This is a new problem ive had since last night. Last night, since i turned on wifi and then attempted to play the family guy game... i thought it was the game that was messed up. I went to play it, phone froze, fair enough, held down the power button to do a reset... it booted, but as soon as i put in my security pattern, it froze on that pattern. Pulled battery out, and put back in, and STILL froze on pattern.....
ended up taking the SD card out, getting in enough to turn off wifi.... froze. reset again. went into recovery and cleared cache, froze shortly after i put my pattern in
it was just rediculous!!
i hadnt tried the wifi again until just now.... i wanted to go into the store to leave a bad review for the game... but it seems to be for some reason my phone. the store was half way into loading and it froze.... so i rebooted, it froze on lock... rebooted again... managed to get the wifi off and it seemed okay, but i restarted it thru the actual menu for good measure and it seems okay now.
but the question is, WHY???
same ROM, same phone, nothing new downloaded in about 3 weeks or so...... i was just trying to play a game over wifi..... normally i keep wifi and data off with just network connection for calls and texts.... but ive never had any problems wtih it freezing up for just toggling the wifi before, this is a new problem with nothing new on the phone as the cause. I hadnt even connected it to my PC in a week or so, for it to pick something up via USB that was bad.....
what can i do??
I would really appreciate help on this matter.... nothing new on my phone.... it still freezes after the wifi radio turns on...
the most recent time my home screen froze but i was still able to pull down the bar and turn off the wifi radio before a total freeze..... had to reset it again......
it works fine until wifi turned on since last night... no new updates, no new games.... no new anything so im REALLY confused!!!
Im trying restoring to a previous backup i have from CWM..... un fortunately from a year ago so its gonna take me forever to get things back the way i had them...
if this doesnt work i really dont know what else to do....
tried wiping the cache and dalvik cache, and still ntohing....... i wanted to get in to clear out some of the wifi network names... but you need wifi on... and well guess what happens.... friggen phone.....
OMG i am so flaming angry now.... ITS STILL HAPPENING!!!!
did backup, seemed fine so i reinstalled everything i wanted.... was fine yesterday and the night before wth wifi.... now its doing the SAME GODDAMN THING!!!!
i could really REALLY use some help with this!!!

No throughput in mobile data after factory reset Lenovo K4 Note

Hi All,
I did a factory reset to solve a problem, problem solved, but somethong happened to the mobile data.
Data connects, shows the connection, nothing comes through. No browsing, no data on facebook, nothing...
Wifi is working fine.
The data is not completely dead. Once in a while an app gets updated if I keep it on. Sometimes, it gets connected. But most of the time it does not.
Troubleshooting done so far:
1. Did Factory Reset agin and again.
2. Changed the SIM with another one, new one is also not connecting. My SIM is working on other mobile, nothing wrong with the SIM.
3. Reset all APNs, did manual APN settings.
4. Removed theSIM kept for 1/2 hour and put it back in.
5. Checked all setting that can possibly affect anything.
Do anybody have similar experience? Please help.
I am on Marshmallow, latest version of the firmware.

Bluetooth failed

I gotta say i bought this phone with high hopes but so far it is a total disaster. My Bluetooth stopped working. It started with being unable to connect and having to restart phone but now even resetting phone and settings does nothing. Since it doesn't back up app data (except for some google useless apps) i dont want to factory reset. Anyone had similar issue?

Nope but it sounds like you need to factory reset whether you want to or not.
Bluetooth working perfectly fine here... No connection issues with my Smartwatch, car, Bluetooth headset and speakers. Hopefully a reset will fix it for you

A8 keeps putting whatsapp asleep nomatter what setting I change.

So I have had this problem before a year or two ago, I tried everything and had to reset my phone to factory settings to get it fixed. The problem is now back and I'd like to avoid having to reset the phone as its just a huge pain in the ass to set it all back up. I get notifications late from whatsapp and it keeps losing connection to webwhatsapp (wifi or via 4g). Only way to reconnect is to unlock my phone. I have checekd all the settings, reinstalled whatsapp and the problem occurs out of nowhere as I didn't change any settings in my phone, didn't update my phone.
I'm hoping a wizard here has any suggestions as a last resort.
Kind regards, a desperate stranger.
edit: running android 8.0
edit2: reset the phone and the issue is still there.
