I've been reading and searching but I think I missed the thread that pertains to my issues. Running Stock everything and bluetooth connects from my phone to my headset fine but when I get in my car, the bluetooth system in my car starts screaming at me every 30 seconds that the "pairing process must be initiated from the car and not the phone". Well, I'm not trying to pair, why is the phone sending out a pairing attempt and how can I stop it?

So I of course love my Thunderbolt, but I have one issue I can't seem to fix. My phone connects to my trucks headunit over Bluetooth for talk and audio. Once I start Pandora or the native music app, about 20 seconds later the phone says "Bluetooth Headset Disconnected" and thats that. Anyone else having this issue and are there any known fixes yet?
this just started happening to me after using BT successfully for months. i have tried pairing and repairing. initial pair connects headset and media, but after a few seconds i see the message headset disconnected.... the media profile is still paired but not headset.
any ideas?
thanks,
eric
i have this issue as well, but i'm running bamf 1.6.2... i wasn't going to say anything itll i was on CM again (it did work when i was on CM previously)
Try unpairing, then repairing - this time deny any requests to let your car access the TB's phonebook via bluetooth. That solved it for me.
happens to me every once in a while.

no root.
i have to turn bt off and then back on and it reconnects without issue.
I own a 2011 Subaru Impreza STi which I have paired with my HTC Sensation 4G (t-mobile). Currently I can listen to music through the radio, take phone calls, and control the current song through the dash and steering wheel. Like others have reported, it always starts playing immediately upon bluetooth connection (annoying).
The real problem I am having is that the phone won't automatically reconnect to the car when I start the car/stereo back up. When I am using the bluetooth playing through the car, and I shutoff the car, the music player on the phone stops and closes, but the bluetooth still says "connected." When I go back to the car again, (15 seconds or many days later) it won't automatically reconnect and start playing again. In order to get it to reconnect, I have to disable bluetooth and reenable it; only then the phone will automatically connect. Any advice on getting the phone to automatically reconnect when I turn the car back on, so I don't have to disable and reenable the bluetooth on the phone?
I currently run the Sense UI (I hate it). I S-OFF'ed, rooted, and CID'd the phone yesterday so that I can install stock CM7 on it soon.
Thank you in advance.
I have the AT&T Galaxy S II Skyrocket and my phone used to auto-connect to my car via bluetooth without any problem, even after upgrading to ICS in early July. All of sudden since yesterday a problem has popped up: whenever I start the car, the car's control panel shows "bluetooth connection successful" or something similar, and then the car audio system switches into the talk mode as if the phone is in the mid of a phone call. Of course I am not in the middle of any phone call. So there is no audio heard (no radio, no cd playing, etc). I try to press the button on the car's panel to disconnect the call but it always returns to that talk mode. After some tests I find out that if I make any phone call, the call will be disconnected immediately and the status of my car's panel returns to normal. But next time when I start the car, the issue appears again until I make any phone call.
At the beginning I thought something was wrong with my car. Then I tried two other phones: one was iphone 3G, and the other was an old htc magic with android 2.2. Both of their bluetooth systems worked well with my car. So I believe it is something wrong with the Galaxy phone. However I am not sure what could be the problem exactly.
My phone is not rooted.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Have you tried unpairing the skyrocket and your car? Sometimes you just need to break the connection and set it up again.
Reported questions go in q&a and there are threads on Bluetooth issues

Yes I have unpaired the connection, restarted the phone and the car, and paired them again. But the problem persists.
Today I tried my wife's iphone 4 with the car the didn't see any problem. I am pretty sure there is something fishy with the phone.

Also look in the last couple of pages here, there is some explanation for it.:

I just flashed the OTA update for Android 6.0 last week on my Nexus 5 and I noticed that with the new update, phone calls no longer get routed through Bluetooth on my Mazda3. It is able to pair fine with the car and can stream music through Bluetooth, but calls do not go through.
Here is what happens:
When I place a call, the audio automatically gets routed back to the phone. If the other person picks up, calls will continue going through the phone speaker unless I manually select route through Bluetooth. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't, but it does get frustrating trying this workaround especially while driving.
I tried unpairing and re-pairing bluetooth with the car, cleared the data and cache of the Bluetooth app on the phone, and even tried a factory reset, but the problem still persists. Anybody else run into the same issue and found any possible fixes?
For the record, when I did this with Lollipop 5.1.1, it worked without a hitch.
Thanks!
I am having a similar problem trying to connect my Nexus 5 running Android 6.0 to my JVC car stereo. It continually complains of an invalid key, albeit both phone and car head unit show the correct key.
I am unable to make a bluetooth connection at all with the stereo. I had no issue with my Nexus when it was running 5.1, and my iPhone 5 continues to pair with the stereo.
I had this issue on the last preview but haven't seen it yet on final 6.0. For either regular calls or Hangouts calls.
I just rolled back to 5.1.1 and Bluetooth calls work fine with the car now. So it appears that it is a problem that is resident in 6.0.
Same here, but a little different: It pairs and when I start a call from the menu it goes down but the call is still up on the phone. When the other person picks up the call is re-routed to the car speakers... very strange behaviour!
Same behavior as what you are seeing when paired to a '15 Accord but works fine on a '14 Camry.
im at 6.0.1 and has the same problem, streaming music through bluetooth is ok but no voice call...
Any news on this? My wife's nexus has same problem. Nexus 5 with Android 6.0.1. compiling version M4B30Z.
I read on a different site to disable wireless scanning in location. Just tied that and have been able to make and receive calls from the car. Will be interesting to see if it continues to work.
As long as I've had this phone (January or so), this phone has been extremely flakey with my car's Bluetooth stereo. It connects within about 30 seconds of turning on the car, as usual, and displays a status showing connected. But when I actually try to play an audio file (usually a podcast, sometimes music, sometimes initiate a phone call), the BT connection dies, and the car stereo shows "No audio connection detected". I then have to wait another 30 seconds or so to try again.
This happened maybe 50% of the time when I got the phone, but since the Oreo update I feel like it's up to 85% of the time. It's only the first attempt--subsequent connections are usually fine. Nonetheless, it's driving me nuts. I've had four Android phones over the past seven years (including a Galaxy S2) and none of them ever had an issue with the stereo before this one.
Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this?
try forgetting the device in car bluetooth settings
You could trying pairing your S8 with another car. This will help you establish whether the issue is with the car or the phone. You could also try to Reset Network Settings
