Anyone having similar problems with bluetooth audio streaming on Tab 7.7 with new JB firmware please, post your device names to this thread.
I will post any future updates from Samsung here as well
Original post:
Major disappointment after using Bluetooth A2DP with Samsung HS3000 headset(apt-x compatible).
Tested with stock music player, google music and poweramp. After playing for a few minutes, tab starts to slow down, then player might freeze, tab settings freeze, reboot into the eternal samsung logo. Only way out long press on power.
ICS was pretty bad, but at least it played for 20-30 minutes before going kaboom ...
Please, post your experiences with Bluetooth audio streaming.
i'm using Jabra clipper and Jabra stone... havent had any of those problem you mention... yet...

I use a Jawbone Era and Jambox and have not had these problems.
All headsets listed above do not support apt-x.
Maybe this is the key to this problem.
Anyone with apt-x capable headset or speakers?
may be because its old device... cant support apt-x
Same prob

hi, actually it should support apt-x. Same prob here it is awful. A fix would be fantastic.
I used nokia bh 505 - played music for 4hrs, no glitch whatsoever
Mine syncs fine with older aftermarket car stereo, Jawbox Jambox and also a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard with none of these issues.
Now, it does reboot occasionally a different times but that's another story...
another prob
Hi guys, thanks for your answers. But I think the problem is more an apt x Codecs problem and less a bluetooth problem.

Over 5 weeks passed.
No updates. I still can not use 2 Samsung products which supposed to work with each other.
BT drivers are compiled in the kernel. I just wonder if there is an option (to enable) for further device support within the .config prior to compile.
Will take a look in approx 3 weeks time. Please remember to PM (remind) me before then and see if anything can be done.
Edit: please PM me anyway, because IF something can be done, you will be required to flash a custom kernel, and if you don't want that, let me know so I don't waste my time

Recently bought the Kenwood X895 headunit for my car. I can successfully pair the phone to the headunit, it downloads my phone book fine. But I cant get the head unit or phone, not sure which, to recognize that I can stream music. It will only let me make phone calls (and all that functions fine).
Any suggestions for how I get it to pair as a music player? Ive tried all I can think of short of calling kenwood and talking to a trained monkey.....
I've heard that not all decks can stream music through blue tooth. Some only do phone calls over Bluetooth. Are you sure the deck is capable of doing this?
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
your HU doesnt have A2DP support.
i too am a victim of them, i purchased a BT900 and it doesnt have A2DP either. Kenwood claims that there is not enough support for it and so they wont add it to the devices even though they are capable of the technology. a simple update would provide it.
That's what my next headunit will be capable of, people need to vote with their wallets when it comes to stuff like this, or send them well written assertive letters.
Well thanks for the input guys. The research I read said people were able to do it but maybe I misunderstood them using the headphone jack or something. Ill have to keep digging and harrass Kenwood to come out with a bluetooth update to allow a2dp.
oh don't worry they just released there 2012 line at ces.. If not there entire BT built in line now supports A2DP support. Fricken BS!!!! I already sent in a customer complaint and feedback. Also been spamming there FB and twitter. Its complete and utter Non-sense. My brothers 3 year old kenwood deck supports fricken A2DP but my x995 wont support it. STUPID and all there decks are capable of updates with firmware they just add the profile and its done. I think what it comes down to is they don't want to license it out for the models.
PIONEER AVH3300BT here..I too was burned by phone calls only over Bluetooth. No big deal though since Bluetooth quality sucks when streaming
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
a2dp supports up to 768kbps, the codec used with most is 378kbps. that is far above most players and mp3s, unless your pushing flac/alac/wav you won't notice a loss in quality
There are adapters to enable bluetooth a2dp playback through you're headunit, I myself have tunelink adapter which is great, works flawlessly

What model of tunelink? I would be interested in getting this if Kenwood isnt coming up with a firmware update any time soon, depending on the price of course. And what headunit are you using it with?
And unless Im misunderstanding the amazon listing, you connect to the tunelink with bluetooth and it streams over fm to the radio? so the streaming to fm is still the weak link...
Kenwood 3.90 Bluetooth Update
Different type question. Has anyone gotten the headunit to successfully update to the 3.90 software.
I have been trying to use my laptop unsuccessfully. My laptop is a Toshiba win 7 64 bit.
When I load the native drivers from toshiba it also loads its own bluetooth utility
I can connect to the headunit and according to kenwood the update should be done as an object push. When I attempt to do this it tells me file send transfer failed.
If I try to use their utility from the website it tells me no bluetooth device found.
Any assistance with this would be greatly appreciated.
Not sure if there are specific procedures com ports or whatever.

Hello everybody.
I've just found a strange problem with my phone's internal speaker. And I think the problem might be there since my purchase but I never realized it before.
The thing is, when I play a stereo track on my phone I can only hear ONE channel through the internal speaker. However my headset work fine at the same time.
I've even downloaded an app from Play store to test the speakers and it can only play the left channel.
Can someone please test this app on your phone?
(cannot post link due to low post count)
Search Google Play for the app named "Stereo Test" from Farrell and test it on your phone, then reply with your results
You might also have this weird problem!
Note:
I'm on stock firmware (2.3.5) never rooted/flashed anything.
I did tried factory reset before posting.
Your help is much appreciated!

Well, I think i didn't described the problem enough.
I know the speaker is mono, but it should play both channels merged.
For example:
If I play a stereo song having only music in left channel & vocals in right channel. I can only hear the music (no vocals), but if I plug my headset it plays fine.
Did you guys get it?
If you still don't understand what I'm talking about.
Just download that app, test your speaker and post your results here.
That will too help me alot.

You misunderstood him. the right channel is not played on the internal speaker or down mixed and not that he has 2 speakers.
Incidentally, I have the same error.

here is a MP3 file to test
Hey guys,
I've made a mp3 file myself to make things simple (and to prove this problem to SSC)
If you play this file, you'll hear only one channel every 5 seconds (till 30sec)
i.e.
left channel will play from 0 to 5 seconds
next right channel plays from 5 to 10 sec
then again left channel plays from 10 to 15 sec (so on till 30 seconds)
After 30 seconds, you'll hear both channels simultaneously till the end.
Now, if I play this file I can hear the first 5 seconds then the speaker goes silent for 5 seconds then again I can hear for 5 seconds and so on...till 30 seconds.
After 30 seconds though, I can hear the song till the end.
In my case, I can only hear from left channel and that is the problem I was talking about.
I request you to try playing this file and reply here with your results.
(sorry for my bad English, I tried my best to describe myself)

What the OP is actually trying to say is that only a single channel (either left / right chanel) is audible from the mono speaker that we have in our handset. Normally both channels should be audible but without the stereo effect.
'whatever' I'll try to confirm the same just give me a sometime as I can't check it currently.
Cheers !

I don't understand how could it be gingerbread problem?
When lots of other people on gingerbread can hear the song without problem.
Btw, I went to SSC yesterday and although it was hard do prove the problem, I did it with the help of edited mp3 file.
But then the SSC guy asked me to leave my phone there for"ringer" replacement, which I refused.
But, when I was leaving SSC, I found another user having Galaxy R, and then we tested the mp3 file in it, which played correctly in his handset.
So it means there is something wrong with the hardware, right?
tried that
pudup said:
No. I had this problem and now don't without altering my hardware in any way.
Indian stock rom has this issue maybe. This could also be related to the music player you use.
Try a different player. Then try a different rom. ICS if you like but if you'd rather be on GB then find out what rom and kernel someone without this issue is using and flash that.
Good luck.

I tried different players before starting this thread.
In fact, I firstly noticed this problem while I was playing a song in "n7player"
Then I thought it might be player related problem and tried stock player, "Xplay music player" etc. but nothing helped.
I'm just waiting for the official release of ICS from Samsung India.
Thanks to all.
Its been almost 4 months since last post, but I'm again here to share my experience...
I finally updated to ICS today and this weired problem is GONE!
So, its confirmed that it was a bug in my stock firmware...
Plz update if you have same problem...

Try pairing with an iphone or android, help determine what device is at fault. A mini review of the sound would be nice, in case these become a firesale item because of incompatibility issues.
I am having the same problem. Paired no problem with my regular Jambox but disconnects immediately with my Big Jambox.
I am going to update the Big Jambox firmware to see if that helps.
I can't believe that this is an issue in this day and age.
Frustrating.
For what its worth, I sent a support request to Jawbone with a link to this thread explaining the issue. Probably won't achieve much, but worth a try I guess. At least it may make them aware of the problem.

Haven't tried it out yet but it should work.
When I checked the "Properties" for my regular Jamnox versus the Big Jambox it definitely isn't being seen as a audio device.
In my other cars it works fine so I know its my Kia but I don't have any idea how I can rectify this. Called the tech at Kia and he said they've not tested the note 7 and may never as the car is a few years old so It looks like I'm on my own here. On my 2013 Kia optima w/ navi I do not get media audio so only BT that works is the phone. It will show the first song sometimes on pandora (Streaming audio, NOT pandora app radio) but never will update after that. All audio always comes from phone. I can change songs from the stereo but that's it. Totally useless. Works fine in my other cars and my BT radio in my garage so it's a problem w/ my Kia but WTF?? My note 3 and a note 5 work just fine. Very disappointing.
Anyone else have this issue? Any suggested fixes?

Other than the usual going into the settings of both your Kia's radio and your new phone to remove both devices from the list of available devices and re-pair them both, not sure what else you can do? There appears to be a widespread issue with the Note 7's ability to maintain a solid bluetooth connection for a lot of folks out there including me. Hopefully its a software issue and not a hardware issue in which case Samsung should already be well aware of it and working on a resolution.
I am having the exact same problem with a 2013 Sonata Limited 2.0. Reset the phone and even swapped it out for another. It connects to my portable Bluetooth speakers with no issues. My M8 and M9 connect to my car just fine. I'm hoping some type of fix is available.

So I spoke w/ my kia service manager today and we had a talk. I told him all the steps i've gone through and also that i've tried two different kia/hyunais and it didn't work in either. He has started a ticket and has an in w/ the audio designers at Kia so he says. I originally thought it was MM that was the issue but my wife has an S5 w/ MM and it works fine. She has BT 4.0 and I have 4.2 I'm wondering if that is part of the issue.
So you tried two note 7s and they both did it? That was something I wanted to try.

Yes, I did and same problem persists. It almost seems like the Bluetooth profile on the phone is not backwards compatible.
Sent from my SM-N930P using Tapatalk
The odd thing is it shows the first song in pandora on the stereo. I can also control forward but not play/pause from my stereo just no audio. Do you have the same behavior? Sso AVRCP is sort of working at least. I think you may be onto something about the BT profile even though it should be backward compatible.
Dave
Is it just Pandora or all media files playing back from your Music Library on the phone? It could be a Pandora thing. I have a 2015 Toyota Camry XSE V6 and my bluetooth works fine using my Note 7.
I tried spotify as well. Even waze only goes through phone speaker. No media audio option comes up in
In bluetooth.
So their first response to the service manager is below. How can 2013 MY have AVN 2.0 and by 2016 they're already at AVN 4.0 and basically saying FU to anyone w/ an "olde" car that is 3 years old.
To my knowledge, that platform is no longer tested (it is an AVN 2.0 and we are up to AVN 4.0 and developing AVN 5.0) however, advise would be for the customer to continue to update their phone, delete pairings and re-pair after they update their phone software. I can send this information to the Bluetooth team and see if they are able to duplicate anything on a vehicle however, it's hard to guarantee compatibility on older models with newer phones and software.
I would have to check and see if any later software is available however, sometimes a map update will give the customer the latest head unit software however, that is not covered under warranty."

Samsung's stance is it is my car. Despite the car working w/ the Note 3, Note 5 and S5. Everyone is passing the buck. This phone is about to be returned.

There's no firmware update for your car radio? Just curious if you hadn't gone that route yet. My parents had a similar issue on their Ford Focus.

Mine worked fine, tried it on the way to work. Both the regular BT streaming and the Pandora setting in the radio worked. Volume, change tracks etc. This is just a cheapie $100 Kenwood Excelon I bought earlier this year.

Nope, most up to date. Spoke to the Kia Bluetooth team and they said they have no plan to resolve.

And you have a note 7 correct? I'd be curious what model head unit you both have to compare the differences to see wtf is causing this.
Hey.
Had this phone for a week now and whilst it's a great phone, there appears to be a few bugs which need sorting. The main one is the incompatibility with the car for controlling apps like Spotify or streaming music via Bluetooth.
The later is a real pain and one which is causing me to seriously consider getting rid of this device as it's a killer feature for me due to the amount of driving I do.
Had a quick look at Talk Sony forum and a few other people have the same problem but as of yet there is no update or word from Sony.
Anyone else have the same experience and a potential solution?
Cheers
Scott
No solution, I got word from Sony that they are working on it, but my guess is that this will be fixed with Android O, and this could be months ahead :/
But maybe we will receive an update for Android 7, who knows...
Thanks for the reply. This kind of settles it then as Monday is last day of my cooling off period.. Gonna have to take it back as there is no way I can function in my job if I can t use handsfree properly or music
Such a shame.
had the same thing, after much research i found its probably the fact that the premium has bluetooth 5, with special codecs for music streaming. Non of which was available in 2012 when my car was made.
Ive ordered a £3 hadfree kit of ebay to see if that makes any difference.

I was gonna do the same but the only offer they gave me was an s8 with less data for an extra £15 a month. I stuck with the Sony and am hoping when my new car arrives it works.
Good luck.
I have a new 2017 BMW and I am stunned that it doesnt work. The S8 works great and the iPhone is perfect but for some reason Sony have been left out in the dark.

Spoke to Sony. They do believe their device is at fault and have no plans to do any software tweaks till Android O
I dont have any issues with mine controlling pause, play, last or next song, but I switched to Deezer a while back. Ive had more than one issue with Spotify on other devices, so I moved on from that service.

It's such a strange problem.
Hi guys goodevening I've solve this issue ! you just to go o dev menu anche change bluetooth version avrcp from 1.6 to 1.4 after that it will worck again with the idrive with any app.
I tried changing avrcp to 1.4 yet it still won't stream music at all to my alpine head unit.
Didn't even come up as an option under Bluetooth. Says it is connected for calls and contacts only.
The alpine works fine with galaxy note 2, 4, galaxy s5 and s8, Huawei y550. So the fault is with the xz premium.
Same Problem with Alpine and Bose. Solution?
