Is anyone else having trouble with keeping their Bluetooth headset connect to their HOX on 1.85? I have a Plantronics, which has worked great until I exchanged my HOX for a new one. I have unpaired and then paired again several times. It pairs and connects, but when I make a call it starts out where I can hear it ring and then disconnects after 2 seconds. Works fine with the Bluetooth connection in my Fusion. Any thoughts?
Same problem
I have the same problem with 1.85. If you disable WiFi the BT will work fine, but it seems like you'll have to decide if you want BT or WiFi....I'm on my 3rd handset and I"m about done with HTC

I finally figured that WiFi was causing trouble. Couldn't believe that was the issue. I am on my 4th and I can now use both. Keep bringing them back! Its the only thing you can do. The phone is sweet now that everything is working.

So I had the SE Mw600 for my nexus one and it worked like a charm but after pairing it with the sensation. No buttons work. I just the the audio and nothing else works. I did some digging and it seems to work for the desire I wonder what is the difference? Anyone have an idea of why it wont work? or have it working?
It is working here as it should.
Works fine here too. I finally see Caller ID with gingerbread powered Sensation
Works here as well. Paired up fine. I could adjust the volume and stop, play and forward like when I had it with my N1.
So its just me... maybe I should factory reset the phone and see if that helps thanks for the answers guys.

Woah really? A factory reset for the phone just for a bluetooth pairing? Have you tried other options?
Like unpair and remove the headset from your phone and reboot. And for safe measure reset the MW600 as well.
To reset the MW600 headset
1 Make sure the headset is turned off.
2 Press and hold down POWER until the pairing indication appears.
3 Simultaneously press and hold down POWER and CALL button until the headset turns off.
Have you also tried other bluetooth headsets and do they work properly? I just don't want you to go through a full factory reset and have to restore everything in creation if you don't need to. GL
EDIT: And like with my n1, the tracks do not appear on the MW600 (but the caller ID function works) because it's a Sony Ericsson thing. But all the other buttons work without an issue.

Well I have tried everything. I reset the mw600 and unpaired it. I paired it again with my nexus and it works fine.
I haven't really tried other headsets because Well I don't have access to them. Except my bluetooth radio transmitter thing which works fine.
I searched around every other forum here and elsewhere trying to see if anyone had the same problem or similar but nothing. I've tried all the free players that they said worked and what not but really nothing works.
The really odd part is that the sounds comes out fine but none of the controllers work. which kinda make it useless in the gym.
I'll try to reset the mw600 again and pair it again and see if this time it all works this time. I know the factory reset seems a little bit too much for only the bluetooth thing but since I'm the only one having the problem I think it is the phone. Idk I'll wait a little bit more and do some more digging before I reset. Thanks for all the help.

I am not sure if this applies in your case, but are you on a non-US Sensation? Not sure if the others are using the US tmobile sensation or not. But I am using the Tmobile branded version here. Again, I am not sure if it's relevant in your case.
yeah mine is a Tmobile US sensation. for my luck after struggling with this thing all day yesterday today... I dropped my phone and I cracked my screen. This isnt my week at all. Called HTC and they are saying it will be 160 dollars to fix... Well at least that will take off my mind from this for a while.
*UPDATE* after factory reset to send my phone for repairs... I tried to pair my phone again with the mw600 and it worked fine... I guess there was just something wrong with the phone settings.
I use my MW600 with my t-mobile branded sensation and all works fine. I use it with xiialive and can skip stations fine and everything. The names don't appear on the display, but again like kpj says, it's a se thing.
Actually its not a SE thing but its a Bluetooth stack problem android uses a 1.0 AVRP version called bluez and track name support is only in AVRCP 1.3/1.4.
I found all this by doing some more research on the topic. So when we get an upgraded Bluetooth stack we will be able to see the track names. SE payed for the upgrade to enable this feature apparently.
Can we get the new stack with a custom rom?

yes. However, I've gone from one version of a rom to another and lost the functionality...and the chef could not explain why.
AFAIK, any rom that is remotely based on a stock one will not support song info.
I am really getting tired of my bluetooth headset not staying connected. Has anyone been able to figure out why both the Infuse and now my Skyrocket both lose their connection to my bluetooth headset during the day? It will connect to it (manually) no problem in the morning but after awhile it just loses the connection to my device? No ryhme or reason and the only way to get it back working again is to turn BT off/on again. Is the BT hardware in the phone just a piece of dog poo or what?

If you are using the same B/T device for both phones then I would be highly suspect of the device, not the phones. If it is fixed (not sure what folded means) then good...
Sorry to resurrect an old topic, but has anyone come up with a solution to this recently? I've been having similar problems recently. When I turn bluetooth on sometimes, it just hangs and doesn't turn on. I have to restart the phone. This has been happening more and more recently.
If it has something to do with the 2.3.6 update, is there a way to roll back to 2.3.5?
Wait, there was an update to 2.3.6? Did you get that OTA or is that from an alternate ROM? Mine is showing as up to date at 2.3.5 running stock.

I got it OTA about a month ago. Apparently AT&T pulled it, though.
Honestly, I see no difference between the two.
I have given up on Bluetooth with this phone! I actually went and bought a decent set of wired headphones incase I need to use them to talk handsfree.
On a more pleasant note (Lol) my new Galaxy Note is superb on my Jawbone and my car. Nice to use Bluetooth in the car again.
The skyrocket definitely has a Bluetooth issue. I had it before and after the 2.3.6 update.

BTW, where does one typically go to file a complaint? Would I go to AT&T or Samsung? They have probably heard of this issue already, but I figure one more person reminding them wouldn't hurt.

Is everyone having bluetooth issues in an LTE area? I think the first time I noticed this problem was around the time LTE was turned on in LA... or after the 2.3.6 update. Since people w/o the update are having the problem.. maybe it's related to LTE?
I started a similar thread a while back, but the mods moved it to accessories: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342831
There are definitely BT issues with this phone. I returned two because of the BT failing completely. So far so good with the two I have now. Some BT devices work better with this phone, but some don't work at all; it's very picky about what devices it works with. I have the Motorola HX550 headset, it works pretty well with that. Mine does not work well with Blueant, Jawbone, Motorola H17s or HX1s. The Blueant and Jawbone headsets worked, but voice dialing sucked because volume on confirmations was too low to be heard.
It's not LTE related; we have no LTE where I live. It's also not 2.3.6 related.

Thanks for clarifying the LTE theory. Thought it was worth a shot.
When you say you have two devices, do you mean two Skyrockets? I'm thinking of visiting the store, too.
Yep, I have had 5 skyrockets. 3 returned and I have two functional SRs now.

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!

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?

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

I am having trouble with my in car bluetooth kit...
It's a VW original touch phone-kit music device I am pairing my HTC one XL with... It connects fine and even sometimes I can take a call and it works fine.
But most times, it seems to restart my Phone-kit when on calls and even sometimes when I am not connected. Some times the audio will just switch to my phone as well and I have to toggle my phone back to use bluetooth..
I thought it was a problem with the phone-kit, but I have since tested it with a Samsung Galaxy 4 and an iphone and they both worked without and problems. No crashing at all so it seems likely that my phone is the problem.
I was using Viper 3.2.8 and now I am using CM10.1 Nightly build... and no change with the restarts...
Does anyone have an ideas? I've RUU to put the latest CM on, but I might just RUU back to stock and see if it does it. I have googled it and seems to be a wide spread problem with the One XL..
Hey guys,
I have a bluetooth headphone (Wearhaus Arc), which I had to sent in for repair recently. Since I have them I faced with connection issue, but sometimes it worked at the first go. Also because I wasn't able to update to firmware, the support told me to return it. Before doing so I unpaired the headphone from my phone (HTC One M8 running latest official stock unbranded Android 6.0).
Since I got headphone back, my phone isn't able to "see" the headphone. Bluetooth is on and the headphone as well, but for my phone it's like the headphone isn't there/switched on. I did some pairing testing with other phones (HTC Sensation, BlackBerry Q10, HTC HD2), which found the headphone immediately and worked fine. So my guess is, that only my M8 has a problem with it. Pairing, unpairing and "repairing" (pairing again) between my M8 and the other mentioned phones worked well, so there can't be an general bluetooth issue.
After doing a factory reset on my M8 I'm a step futher, because now the phone sees the headphone (somethimes), but it isn't able to establish a connection. In case my M8 sees it, I tap on the available devices, the phone tries to connect, but a second later I get the message: "unable to pair. Make sure your devices are on and discoverable, and then try pairing again". Rebooting the phone does not work. I also cleared the data and cache of the bluetooth share app and performed a network reset like described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-m8/help/htc-one-m8-bluetooth-wont-android-6-0-t3340279
My question to you guys is, what can I do, to get the headphones to work?
Is it possible, that the phone has is still a piece of information left about the former connection, which refuses any new connection?
Is there a file on the phone, which stores the bluetooth connections? if yes, maybe deleting or editing the file could help?
Thank you in advance!

Maybe, but as I have written, my M8 can be paired in both directions with the other mentioned phones flawlessly. That's why it actually can't be a general issue, right?
