hello all !
I recently flashed shoredroid rom 4.4.2 latest build to my one x from at&t.
having a problem with multiple devices in my bluetooth.
whenever I turn BT on, it wants to auto connect to the last active device.
normally this would be fine except I routinely go back and forth between 2 and 3 different music streaming devices.
when BT is turned on, it gets stuck in a "connecting" loop and will never give up. I tried getting a 3rd party app to force it to stop connecting but it only works sometimes...
any ideas to disable auto connect entirely or to set a time-out function on auto connecting?

Hey guys:
I'm having a little issue with wifi connecting automatically after a restart or coming out of airplane mode. Sometimes it will not automatically reconnect to wifi unless I cycle the wifi off then back on. All other times it works fine and connects automatically.
I've seen a number of reports of difficulty connecting to wifi, but not specific to a restart or coming out of airplane mode.
Thanks.

So I bought a Xperia z1, used if it matters, and it is having this issue. When I'm done using WiFi and turn it off, the phone can't use the internet, even though the connection seems to be running (full connection bars, H+ symbol) but no data is able to move whatsoever. This doesn't occur every time though, it may as well work just fine. Yesterday I didn't use WiFi and the mobile connection worked the whole day. It also occurs sometimes when I boot the phone. Turning on/off the mobiledata or the airplanemode might work and get the connection running. Sometimes. This is frustrating as hell. I'm running android 4.4.2
Anyone?
I just switched from a S5 to a S6. One of my favorite things about the S5 was that I had Tasker set up to perform many actions when the phone connected to my car's Bluetooth. Unfortunately, the S6 is not connecting automatically like my S5 did.
It seems like I have to manually open the Bluetooth settings for the connection and manually turn on both Media and Calls... every time I start the car. While searching the internet for a solution, I found an app called Bluetooth Auto Connect. I installed it and turned a bunch of settings on, and I think it might be helping. It seems that I can turn Bluetooth off and then on again on the S6 and then it will connect to the car (2013 Subaru Crosstrek). However, it really bothers me that this is kind of a downgrade where I have lost functionality.
I just realized that I have so many workarounds:
*Force landscape mode = must have 3rd party app Rotation Locker
*Try to prevent music from auto-playing when connected to Bluetooth = must have 3rd party app Media Button Router (and still works inconsistently)
*Try to force screen always on = must have 3rd party app Secure Settings
that list could go on...
Is it possible to fix this completely, so my S6 will fully-connect to the Crosstrek's Bluetooth automatically?
Edit:
This thread seems to be about the same thing, but I don't a see a solution:

The Bluetooth Auto Connect FAQ sounds like it's a Samsung problem.
I started having the same issue with my motox after the 5.1 update. Prior it auto connected every time.
LG G6 on Android 7.0 ( I suspect this issue is not specific to this phone.) This happened to me like a year ago. Bluetooth in my car kept disconnecting and it had to do with me turning on some sort of feature where the phone keeps scanning for nearby Wi-Fi networks to notify me about. Of course as you drive your car around it periodically picks up a strong enough (nearby) networks. But I think it was doing it even without notifying me on the screen. Anyway, the setting was sort of buried but I eventually found where to turn it off and the bluetooth disconnect stopped.
So I replaced my phone with a new G6 because I switched providers from a GSM to a CDMA provider. I restored my apps and everything was working but then something changed and it started happening again. So I backed up the apps, factory reset, and restored just my bare minimum apps. Worked fine again. I didn't really add any apps that would affect this type of thing and then today I went for a walk and listened to an Audible book for about 45 min. Returned back and disconnected the headphone. About an hour later reconnected them and started listening to music and it started happening again. I have Wi-Fi Notification and Show Wi-Fi popup disabled in Advanced Wi-Fi and when this was happening driving around I can confirm Wi-Fi was turned off (I have a Llama event that automatically turned Wi-Fi off when I connect to my care Bluetooth)
Any ideas what is causing this issue?
I believe I determined the problem. I have a Pebble 2 watch. It was disconnected and while playing music over bluetooth, I went to reconnect it and for the first time I saw some message about allowing the app to turn on bluetooth (even though it was already on.) I enabled it and immediately lost my speaker bluetooth connection. So my guess is my watch app was repeatedly trying to connect to the watch every couple of minutes or so and each time that is what would cause the other bluetooth connection to disconnect. Maybe if I go into the watch app permissions and disable bluetooth toggle permissions that will prevent it from doing it when the watch is disconnected.
Pixel 3a running the latest Android 11 update.
The bluetooth connection of a Syosin selfie stick remote is very erratic. Sometimes it randomly bounces between connected and previously connected. Other times it connects and then abruptly disconnects. Other times (rarely) the connection seems to be stable. Can't discern any pattern.
I've tried forgetting and pairing again. I've tried clearing storage and data for the Bluetooth app.
Tested on an old Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 running LineageOS 16 (Android 9). None of the problems observed on the Pixel are occurring on the tablet. Connection is stable. Can turn Bluetooth off for several minutes and turn on again; reconnects automatically. Can put tablet to sleep for several minutes and turn on again; reconnects automatically. I can restart the tablet; reconnects automatically.
Tested on an iPhone SE running iOS 13.4.1. No issues observed. Connection stable.
