Hello All,
First time, long time.
I bought a TF101 2 months ago...love the damn thing. Unfortunately after ICS my bluetooth (LG HBS-700) headset is now out of sync with videos. I have tried:
-mx player
-stock player
-cold boot
-fresh install
-different video formats
-equalizer/non equalizer
Unfortunately nothing works. Is there a way to fix this manually or is this a driver/ics issue? I travel alot for work and the TF has saved my sanity multiple times.
My TF is stock, no custom roms or anything of the sort. ICS is a great update other than this, so i cant really complain just yet Just a minor nuisance but its pretty high up on my day to day activities. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
bluetooth out of sync
same problem. Tot my headset was broken so I tried another bt headset and still the same problem. Hopefully, we can have another update for ICS.

I have the same exact headset, not sure if it's the headset or the tablet because i bought the LG headset after i got ics. But my problem is that the media connection disconnects randomly and refuses to reconnect. I have to reboot the tablet and repair the bluetooth headset. Can anyone else confirm that bluetooth (more specifically stereo bluetooth) has major issues in ICS?
Same problem here, I have tried three bt headsets, multiple video players and various file types and there is big audio lag in everything.
I am running Ricardo's CM9. Is there anyone who can look into this or is it something that Asus is going to have to fix?
Just wanted to say that I'm having the same audio delay problem on my Galaxy Nexus running Bugless Beast 4.0.4 and I'm using that LG headset too. It must just be a problem with ICS. Hopefully we'll get an update to fix it soon!
Same here with the roms
Same problems here, Using asus slider 101 with revolver rc2, and android revolution 3.2.1, everything's so fast and really good, but the audio lag kills it, if I use grooveip on it, they'll often overlap, in servere cases I have to reboot the device, so for now I'll just use grooveip and any video player with direct connection to the device, and use the bluetooth for music and such...
I just hope the great rom chefs can come up with a solution, heck It might be the ICS itself, being that it is in it's "baby" state...
It seems to this day, a lot of people are working for a fix on this, some say it's an asus thing, others say it's ICS, it seems that the issue is stemming from a incorrect value, here's a quote from one site:
"The root cause of the issue seems to be incorrect reporting of the A2DP HAL
(android_audio_hw.c) latency to AudioFlinger. The following 'in progress'
patch seems to make things better."
There used to be a patch floating around to try to fix the issue but, weather it'll solve it is beyond me because the patch disappeared along weather it worked or not.
Other sites are trying to resolve the issue themselves simply because asus is tight-lipped about it, or they're trying to solve it in due time...
For those that have the problems, are you rooted and have you tried another rom? I use the same headset as well as a moto S305 and theres no sync issues at all in bsplayer, diceplayer, stock player, netflix, and basically all the music apps that i use, ranging from 128kbps mp3s to flac files. Currently running Revolver 4 RC2 with Guevor's 17c kernel, on a B40 chassis. I didn't bother with the ota itself so i can't say if my machine has the same issues on stock, though Revolver is based on the OTA rom so i'm curious if there was some kind of tweak between the OTA and Revolver that made that problem go away.

Are you only out of sync of no audio at all?
My problem is the bluetooth is connected, but No audio att all.

I'm using Revolver 4 RC2, as I said before. It's definitely fully rooted, using guevor's kernel test 18e, I have 2 bluetooth devices with the same issue, a sony mw600 bluetooth stereo headset, and a htc brand ad2p stereo headset.
both have the same issue, worked fine in honeycomb, both stock and mod (revolver honeycomb, TF 3.11).
It might be a bluetooth model issue as you don't have the lag, as for the tweak, that part I don't know... I'll try to use guevor's kernel 17c though... I'll let you know how it turns out...
@3kgt
my issue is that the audio lag, the connection is fine though.
Well i gave mine to the store and used final days of warranty!
Mine did connect without problems, but no sound at all.

And yet a nother uknown BT Speakers..
i'm using team EOS ICS stable version, and a Logitech Bluetooth speakers.
i can connect and hear the audio, there maybe a 1/2ms sec delay. i never noticed till you asked so maybe i'm just seeing things?
i tested playing youtube and watching movies on mx player.
Tried it, same issue...
Well, I reinstalled revolver ics 4.0.2, wiped cache, and dalvik cache, the op runs smoother than before with guevor's kernel 17c and no SODs (so far...), but the 2/3 ms delay is still there, let me clarify a bit on it.
Any app that makes sounds (mx player, poweramp, mixzing, stock player, angry birds, etc.) will have that delay on the asus slider sl101 running ICS, worse if I use voip apps like grooveip, it's only tolerable without bluetooth...
I can use bluetooth on Poweramp and mixzing since I'm only listening to music.
Well that the issue I have...
Can't do much on my end but wait...
Same
Same issue here since upgrading my Sony Tablet to ICS.
I've had exactly the same problem with my TF101 on any form of ICS that I've tried. An unacceptable audio delay to my Sennheiser MM-100 bluetooth headphones. No problem for music, but I can't watch video like this. The only cure I have found is to run a good HC ROM - at the moment it's Revolver 3.11.1, the more I use it the more I like it. Is ICS really worth it? Maybe for some uses; but mine is primarily for watching video when I go camping, a bit of internet and some games. And Revolver is perfect for that. It even recognises my 64GB SDXC card; which my Win7 64bit 6 core has problems doing.
I have found the most simple way to resolve this
I Will simply Sell my damn Tf101 !
Cause i cant watch most videos (Thanks to tegra 2 and codecs problems)
And now this damn BT problem ..
Same here...

yeah I practically did the same thing, only difference, I gave it to one of my family members, after I experience lots of system flaws other than the problem I have such as increased slowness (sometimes unresponsive), and large battery drain, on all roms... though the last (and pretty stable) rom I tried was android revolution, it's quicker, but some programs would crash and eventually become so annoying that I had to uninstall them. but that might be a slider issue and not the transformer issue as most devs are more focused on the transformer... I pretty much tried many things to it to at least be more in sync with my bluetooth but upon doing that I must've screwed the pad in the process and now it just no good no matter what rom I tried, be it the official asus firmware, or a custom firmware... As I said, android revolution was the last rom I tried and everything seemed real smooth and accurate but I couldn't cope with the issues the slider has. so in short, ditched the slider, and I'm going for either Samsung galaxy pad 2, or Motorola xoom... both 32gb internal memory... Well it's sad really but what can you do when a company fails on you hard...
UPDATE:
I just went to an electronics giant to try out the asus infinity by playing some games on it and syncing to my headset only to have the same issue with the lag... looks like this is strictly a maker's issue, no way anybody here can fix that, though I haven't seen if it was happening on JB, but I'm not taking that chance... got the note 2 and I'm good with that for now.. also I've noticed that some movies play with little or without the lag, this problem varies though on what type of movie you're playing, as I couldn't tell what causes that. I play mkv, avi, mpg and mov files via MXplayer I got both results, lag and non lag, same goes for native mp4 files. so this is with my knowledge and understanding way too difficult to pinpoint weather it's a codec problem or hardware problem or both.
Hope this shed a bit of know-how as I just gave up on it the time I gave it away...
otherwise have fun on an otherwise great innovation...

Hi I own a note 2 and meet same issue. Sound delay 1 second while using bluetooth headphone(Creative WP-250). Watch movie with mix player get 0 lag, but watching online movie or playing video game always delay 1 second. I think it belongs to android design problem because I connect my Bluetooth headphone with my iPad no matter what I do I can't find any lag. Would google notice this issue and fix it in the next update?

I went to one of the google offices in San Francisco (nice office by the way!), but did not find anybody there to help on the issue, plus I don't think they'll do anything yet until the problem becomes widely known. If anything they'll just say that the problem lies on the device (bluetooth or phone/pad itself) and not the os as most other companies would do. As did you, I found that problem on the note 2 a while ago, almost as soon as I got it, I figured the features on the phone outweigh the issues on bluetooth and I might as well wait and see if they are able to locate the source of the problem and try to solve it as best as they can...
I'll go back to them since I haven't seen any of the top brass there since they're either in a meeting at the time or they're located elsewhere..
I'll also try to let ASUS and Samsung know about the issue in case that the problem lies on hardware, but that may seem unlikely...

Yea, they're real nice when I came in, but couldn't do much, I'll visit again before the end of the month, going back to work, hopefully I can reach them before then, If anything I'll keep my fingers crossed in hope that they'll fix the issue without my interaction...

Okay.. I know. This is my first post, but don't use that to determine the validity of the information.
I've been on here for months, just didn't have anything useful to contribute until now.
Switched from rooted Gingerbread MT3G to G2x - was pretty excited till the bluetooth issues set in.
Didn't have the random reboots like everyone else. I think that happened once in my pocket... not thing to write home about there. This damn bluetooth was killing me though. Like a bad toothache badly in need of a root canal. Every time I picked up the phone I was reminded how beautiful but flawed this is.
So my search began. Poured over LG forums, T-Mobile and Google searches, compiling information. It became clear that this didn't seem like a hardware issue. The crappy Andriod 2.2 shipped with the phone was the issue. To me it seemed like this wasn't fully tested before shipping. Has sold tens of thousands of these phones and were largely unaware of the issue - the techs were surprised when the reports came in - mainly from US based customers on T-Mobile. In my quest I stumbled across an app that reported to fix a similar issue on a few other phones and gave it a shot, and it worked. So real simple here you go:
1. Root your phone, if you haven't already done so. I did with a heavy heart. Was waiting to do so but this issue was driving me nuts.. I used these scripts to Mac and Linux (I'm a unix guy):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048309
2. Download, from the market, and run, the following app:
>>>> Bluetooth Fix Repair <<<<
That's it!!
Here's what I did to test:
a. Left headset on, power cycled phone
b. Left phone on, power cycled headset
c. Out of range disconnect on head set, then moved back in range - successfully placed call.
d. Received call from a fresh connect, force range disconnect, then reconnect - successfully received call.
e. Disconnected headset from phone menu, then reconnected, placed call successfully.
f. Left headset and phone on for hours, multiple disconnect/reconnect - successfully placed calls.
I'm using a Blueant Q1, with the Blueant app from the market - BTW.
All seems to be well so far.. Give it a shot

What were the issues you had? My bluetooth seems to work fine, except the volume seems low and of course it helps to drain the already short battery life -- sorry, don't mean to be adding another battery rant!

My battery life is fine. Lasts the whole day and then some. Check the running apps and kill the unnecessary tmobile apps and anything else that you don't need. Another way to save battery is to drop the data rate down to 2G. Settings --> Wireless & Networks ---> Mobile Nets --> Use 2G. I know, defeats purpose of having 4g, but it works fine for email and IM.
Bluetooth issue:
Bluetooth disconnects and doesn't reconnect. Only way to resolve is to power cycle phone. Sometimes it would indicate that it was connected where it wasn't. Multiple folks have the same issue. Doesn't seem to matter whether it's a headset or car bluetooth.. same issue.

Wish I had the time to get into the ROMs. Don't know how you guys do it..
Returned the original G2x today and got another. Well, bluetooth is jacked on this one also. You know, I shouldn't have to be messing with this damn thing I paid $300 for. It should work.. The right thing for T-Mobile to do is recall the G2x and replace it the new dual core nexus for affected users. This phone is a piece of shyte.
The BT fix was short lived My bluetooth must have disconnected half a dozen times today. Very frustrating.

I have a Blueant Q2 that collects dust because it is useless trying reconnect it every time it disconnects (far too often) while I'm driving, what's the point? Bluetooth is a fail on the G2X.
So the damn bt issue is still not resolved.

ICS fixes the BT issue... but how? And can it be done for previous versions too?
I have tried the ICS CM9 and it seems to fix this BT issue. Not sure how it happens. Can one of the developers comment and maybe implement the fix in their ROM as well?

It works in the SK ICS builds.
I know it is an old thread but would like to share my experience here.
My only desire was to have the bluetooth not disconnect without announcing the disconnect. I saw this issue in GB 2.3.3 and below and saw it fixed on 2.3.4 and above, only to see another issue (no mute via bluetooth) crop up.
I have, however, by sheer luck and burning hours at it managed to fix it for 2.3.3. Haven't tried to see if it fixes the mute problem yet. I am satisfied with Weapon G2x 3.0 R1 .
Here is the link to my post. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1590523. Note that you will loose everything in the internal SD card so be prepared. It seems that the disconnect problem has its root in another partition (other than /data, /system and /cache). I have been problem free for almost 3 weeks now.
Will try with 2.3.4 and above later to see if the mute issue gets fixed too .
Try at your own risk and post results as you find. The reference thread in the post can be used to create an out of the box G2x with T-Mobile ROM so no chance of bricking (I believe this phone is unbrickable ).

All these new roms are amzing however, Hellfire Sandwitch and Pheonix both have this damn Bluetooth issue. I go to make a call and no sound comes to the bluetooth except some static and then it goes away. I hear nothing. I switch to speaker phone and I hear the dialtone on that. What the heck is going on with the bluetooth on these roms? Both ICS and GB share the same problem. I'm using that fix posted on the forums that makes any rom work with the new march 2012 BB update.

No haven't done that. Not sure how you mess with the irl. I know it has something to do with baseband. But I don't think it has anything to do with Bluetooth?
I am about at my wits end and ready to sell this thing because my music stutters sometimes when multitasking. It happens most often when using the browser (open new tab, clink a link in an app that sends me to the browser, etc) but also occasionally happens just switching applications.
This happens when using the stock player with my own local .mp3 files as well as when streaming using either Pandora or Spotify.
I feel like I'm back in the days of my old Pentium I / Win 95 machine and I just don't think this should be happening.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Any tips on what to try? My next things to try are factory refresh and also a different music player (although I don't this will have any effect). I also have thought about getting an app from the market that will tell me cpu usage.
This is a WiFi only xoom, still stock, but soon to be rooted if I decide to actually keep it. I've had it for I guess 2 weeks and the audio stutter is one of the first things I noticed and is actually a big deal breaker for me since the main reason I bought the thing was so I could listen to music, watch movies, and browse the web. I'm just not sure if I got a lemon or not. It otherwise seems fine.
Factory reset should do it. Everybody says back up your apps but I never do. I like to go on the search for apps anyways
I get this as well. Bit annoying. Hope ics fixes it.

same problem here. Since the very first day. I really hate it and every update I was hopeful that it will be fixed. Well, ICS is my next big hope...as long as it is a software issue
If it really bothers you that bad use a diff player from the market. When I use one it no longer stutters.. but i m a fan of the stock player otherwise

Thanks for the replies. I guess I will have to try a factory reset. I'm using power amp player and still have the problem just like with the stock app. Power amp has an option to move to a larger buffer, which I'm hoping will help, at least for my local files. If not, factory reset is next.
Seems like a device with these hardware specs shouldn't have this issue though.
I think its not the hardware more the fact that honeycomb is a bodge job just to get into the tablet market.

OK, I now have used Set DNS and set my wifi to Google DNS and get much faster downloads and that seems to have really helped with this music stuttering issue while browsing. I used both the updated PowerAMP app playing mp3s from my micro sdcard, and also streamed music using Rhapsody and no stuttering, no effect whatever, as I surfed. I don't know if this will help you, but it seems to have solved this problem for me.
Thanks I may try to give that a try. I don't really know how to do any of that, but I'm sure I can figure it out with google.
The $600 tablet that can't play music and browse comment is exactly why I have a dilemma. I wooted the xoom so I would have to sell it at whatever loss plus spend the extra $250 over what I paid for the xoom to get an iPad 2 of the same capacity of 32 GB. Even the 16 GB iPad 2 is still $150 more. Not that money is the issue, I'll spend the extra if I deem it worth it, but I just feel like the tablet market is changing quickly enough that who knows in 6 months to a year I'll probably want to get a different one any way, no matter whether I have a xoom or an ipad 2 right now. I really have grown to like the xoom and don't want to get rid of it over basically this one issue, and it's not like I can't get around the music stuttering issue by using my ipod or phone. I guess it's just that I feel I shouldn't *have* to do that.

The Xoom is really an awesome device and I think it will actually get better with a bit more time. Its problems basically are related to software and there are some solutions now and more coming. The DNS thing is something I hadn't bothered with but I saw something about that app (ugliest icon ever) in Android Police so I checked it out--very easy to set either Google DNS or Open DNS or another, depending on what works for you. I think the app requires root, but you can probably find a way to change it if you're not. I recommend rooting anyway, for a smoother and richer user-controlled experience.
Thought I would just revive this thread and say that I'm really glad I held on to my XOOM because I've been running some of the ICS builds and haven't had any music stutters. I had one moment of music "crash" where the music makes an awful buzz sound for a moment, which is because of using the equalizer built into the music player on ICS. I've had it multiple times on my GNex and it is already widely noted that equalizer may cause music to do this. But as of yet, fingers crossed, I haven't had a single stutters on music when multitasking. It would happen most often upon clicking links in a program that would then open the browser. I haven't done a ton of testing, but have listened to music for a good 4 hours now on my XOOM with EOS ICS while surfing and installing apps and what not and haven't had any stuttering.
In general ICS has made this tablet 10x more awesome than it was to start for me. It was a bit of a disappointment at first, has grown on me with time as I accepted it's shortcomings, but now with ICS is a tablet I'm excited and proud to own. Can't wait for official ICS and more ICS roms.
Hey guys, I'm sure a lot of you are already on one of the ICS roms already. First of all hail all devs who have made our life better before official releases!
However I have seen posts talking about them experiencing Bluetooth problems just like I am right now and mostly mentioning the Music player stuttering and similar issues like that.
My problem is a little different. My aftermarket car deck worked perfectly with all the phones I have connected to, including my GB i727. However after I flashed the ICS my bluetooth connection kept dropping out randomly. Starting with the deck not auto connecting when I get in the car. Then after I manually connect "Phone" in the menu, it will MOST LIKELY disconnect after (on average) 2 minutes with the "Media" still checked (although the connection is not shown on either the icon in the status bar or the display of the deck). Weirdest thing is, sometimes it actually keeps on working after it connects.
I didn't think that would be a problem for me because I don't use Bluetooth earphones and I use my iPod instead of my phone to play music in my car. So I even disabled my Holo Music and my Google Play... I'm on Sean's SKY ICS 4.2D
I am just wondering if bluetooth misfunctioning is a common problem on all current ICS roms for our i727 or is it just the rom I am on right now? Because I drive a Manual car, the hand free in the car is actually very needed for me. So spread your wisdom on the bluetooth issues please!
Thank you!
my jvc car radio doesn't work at all with bluetooth sense updating to sky I c s. The stock I c s leak seemed to work pretty well however. Now the phone vibrates as if it's going to force close then disconnects the bluetooth within seconds of connecting every time.
Strangely, the radio does continue to play for a few minutes even though the radio and phone both say the device is disconnected. All kinds of weirdness going on here! I am going back to the stock leak as soon as I have time to reinstall all my apps for the millionth time.
On a side note, my monster bluetooth speakers seem to work flawlessly with all the roms i have tried. Seems I need an exterminator as I am over run with bluetooth bugs!
I am a programer. I wish I had the time to work on these and help develop these roms. The developers here are some truly talented and generous folks! After finals next week, I will try to devote some of my time to helping out this community which I gain so much from. Thanks to all of you guys! I can't wait until cm9 is in beta/release stage! That will be a dream come true!

Hey guys, I'm sure a lot of you are already on one of the ICS roms already. First of all hail all devs who have made our life better before official releases!
However I have seen posts talking about them experiencing Bluetooth problems just like I am right now and mostly mentioning the Music player stuttering and similar issues like that.

You should try his bluetooth fixes in the op. I had about the same problem and bluetooth fix 2 resolved it. YMMV

Yep, same isdues.
Tried many things but nothing.
It worked, still does only on sky ice update 6, but the phone does not deep sleep, that's the problem so can't keep using that.
Hope official rogers will fix it.

Same here.
JVC KW-XR810 car stereo running updated firmware.
Bluetooth crashes almost immediately and the phone buzzes.
I use bluetooth for playing pandora or internet radio.
UCALC worked perfectly.
UCLD2 is where problems started for me.
I've tried both fixes listed in the SkyICS thread.

Hi
My problem with Bluetooth is pairing to the car auduo. The phone can see the device, recognizes the type and tries to pair, but after putting a code I get a connection refused error. Previously worked with stock and custom 2.x.x rooms. From is now a 4.0.4 one.
Any ideas/suggestions?
Solved by replacing Bluetooth.apk to 4.0.1 found at androidforums
Works fine in my Cayman S

Bluetooth is finally fixed for me in CM10.1. No more Bluetooth Keep Awake. No more hassle of disconnects.

Hi guys,
I have found in other forum, and it's working for me.
Break connection between car and S3, and delete devices both in car and phone.
Now try to pair them again but don't let car system to access contact and data in phone.
After I did this my connection is stable.
Guy who suggested this believes that Samsung sends too much data ( all accounts data)and car system freezes).
Hope this works for you too

Hi guys,
I'm an Android poweruser, but definitely no guru, so I decided to share this problem with you guys. Although less urgent, it's still bothering me.
I've recently (a few months ago) purchased my TF300t. For me, it's the perfect device. However, with all it's quad core magic, the browser frequently hangs on me. Sometimes, it just works perfectly, but other times it freezes for about 5 seconds after which I receive the force close image. Would I press wait, I could continue browsing. Until, of course, the next pageload. This might seem like something minor, but it completely ruins the experience of having a great quad core tablet.
Here's some facts:
It happens all around the web, although some websites seem to trigger it the most. An example of this is the website foodgawker.com, which is a responsive website. However, this website never gives problems on my S2 with CM9.
It happens randomly. At one moment it may happen each pageload, or it may not happen at all for about 15 pageloads. Feels random.
Other browsers either give the same problem, or a terrible browsing experience.
Yes, the problem occurs after a factory reset
Yes, I've upgraded to the latest available firmware.
After a lot of dialoque with Asus, I sent it off for repairs. But as expected, all they did was wipe everything on it, and the problem still exists.
In the meantime, Chrome for Android seems to have been updated, and the problem is less apparent.
My questions:
Does anyone else experience these kind of problems with their TF300t?
Would unlocking it and installing CM help?
The reason I'm asking is because I want to determine whether or not this issue is hardware related. I don't want to be messing with custom software when I'm not totally sure the hardware's fine.
Thanks in advance

Yes, exactly so in the stock browser or clones. Hitting "Wait" often seems to fix it. Just shifted to Chrome and haven't seen it happen. Got to say not impressed by the browsing experience with any browser - slowwwwwwwwer than I expected.

So you have exactly the same problem? That kinda saddens me, since exchanging it won't have any use then. Are custom roms known to fix this?
I also have this issue....however after using the "brows2ram" app and root access, it seems to have 90% disappeared.
search XDA for the brows2ram app, install, reboot, and grant superuser permission and it seems to help a lot.
after a lot of reading here and the TF201 (prime) forum it is a fairly common issue and most of the users believe the 5th companion core is to blame.
basically downloading/scrolling (two main things in browser) are both handled by the companion core...so when this is done, it boggs down the processor.
i have yet to hear if someone experiencing this on stock OS also experiences is on a custom ROM....would love to hear this.
but if you can wait, Jelly Bean should be here pretty soon....and since jellybean was built around the nexus 7 which has almost identical specs, all lag should be gone. i expect JB to be here by september....hopefully.
in the mean time, brows2RAM has helped tremendously and makes me not even have a desire to unlock and ROM this thing.

This helps me out so much! It would explain why browsing is the only thing lagging, and games like Dead Trigger work flawlessly. I also forgot the Nexus 7 also has Tegra 3. I'm guessing Jelly Bean will work flawlessly on this tablet.
Thanks to your post I'm going to stop trying to solve this with Asus, as they'll probably won't admit this. I'll keep using chrome until the official update is here. I don't even think I'm going to root, because Chrome works acceptably!
Thanks!
Edit -> Also; September? Asus is that quick? I guess being used to Samsung, anything is quick.
I'm running hydro on tf300 with the stock web browser
the pause and wait option does still happen, but very infrequently
when I was on a stock rom, it happened all the time
now with hydro it rarely happens
And how is fluidity of web browsing? Because for me, even on Chrome, the experience isn't what I'd expect from a high-end tablet.
Try Ics Browser + and enjoy.

web browsing seems fine on hydro
there are still the normal hick ups from time to time
the difference in speed and fuidity between hydro and stock is night and day
after being on hydro for about the last month
I really don't know how I could even stand the stock rom
on hydro everything is super charged, super fast, super smooth
I've noticed the same problem on the stock rom, for that reason I switched to a early version of cm10 with jellybean. Haven't seen it happen again ever since
Hi guys, I'm enjoying my note edge so far. However, the bluetooth issue bugs me. When i streamed music via Bluetooth on my car, it lags sometime, the music would either stutter or stop then play again. It did not happen when i
first got the phone and i already tried on another car,same issue happened. I also performed a factory reset and the problem didnt go away,samething happen with my gf's note 4 as well. So i just want to know if you guys know
how to fix it? or it just a problem with samsung phone in general.Thanks

FWIW, mine works without a hitch even when using the power saving setting regardless of source (game for kids, local music, network streaming, movies) or client (car, multiple wireless headsets, home sound system...etc.)
The only time I've experienced any issues was when I was tweaking clock frequencies or when trying to optimize for low power usage.
When you say you're getting the same response out of two separate devices, that seems to point more to the client than the source... but that's just a guess - perhaps you have a common app or setting on the devices?
Good luck
I dont know what wrong at this point, I'm considering calling tmobile for a replacement phone. I test my old Htc m8 on my car and it works just fine. And i only install basic app, banking app... Any one else has this problem?

Try to Kies your phone with full wipe.
