[Q] Verizon M8 Bluetooth Issues - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Ok folks, I know my situation is going to be a very focused group of people. I have an HTC One M8 on Verizon. This issue was first noticed when it was completely stock. It has since been rooted and had xposed modules installed. No change...
So here is the issue. My truck has a head unit with Bluetooth 4.0 in it. Every single phone I have ever tried can connect to it, Nexus 4, 5 Sony Z Ultra, etc.... Except my M8.
All other BT devices work with the M8(that iv had the chance to try) except my truck's head unit, It cannot find the signal the head unit outputs, so therefor cannot find and connect.
Any ideas of why this is or if anyone has issues with their M8 not finding BT devices? If anyone has found a fix or update to the radio, any info would help!

HTC HD2 Bluetooth Carkit hang up bug...

Hey Guys, i'm hoping you can help me.
I have searched this forum and couldnt find anyone that has the same bug as me. I apologize in advance if there is a thread already that discusses this.
I have a Ford Mondeo Titanium X 58plate. Bluetooth syncs up and sends/receives calls great, however When I try to hang up the call it crashes. Is anyone having the same problem?
I upgraded my o2 HTC phone to the latest 1.66 rom and I still get the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
I too have the same issue. I have a Mondeo Zetec and suffer from the same issue. After hanging up, the phone continually tries to connect and disconnect and the only way to stop it is to turn off bluetooth completely. I logged the problem with HTC and they were trying working on the problem howver I havent heard anything from them for 3 weeks. Im considering changing the bluetooth stack on the phone but arent sure how and with which stack.
I heard that changing the stack to the Microsoft default causes other issues. Let me know if you get a response from HTC regarding a fix. I dont even bother connecting the phone to the car anymore because it just crashes everytime i get a call, its so frustrating.
This is the response I got from HTC:
We can never guarantee that our products will be compatible with car kits or bluetooth headsets.
There are different ROM versions of Windows Mobile 6.5.
It might be that this product is not 100% compatible with this specific car kit.
When it comes to upgrades and updates then you will have to contact O2 for them to provide the upgrades for you.

Probably a generic answer to everyone.
Same issue/possible fix
I have a Titanium X sport exactly the same issue.
I was told a couple of days ago if you switch off Data connection in Wireless controls in Settings it helps and I have tested a few times and this does seem to work.
I have not had an opertunity to test thoroughly and would be interested to here if it helps you

[Q] Can Anyone Tell Me How To Replace My Bluetooth Radio Please?

I have performed several searches on this subject. I have asked several times. It seems either nobody knows the answer, nobody cares to answer, or else my question is so simple it comes across as a newbie question.
Anyway, here I go again.
A couple of months ago I replaced my EVO's ROM with RUU SuperSonic EvO 3.70.651.1 OTA - Stock - Sense. This was supposedly a rooted version of the last (pre 2.3) OTA.
Everything worked fine.
I then decided to update my radios because newer is always better
At first, everything seemed to work fine, but after a while I discovered my Bluetooth earpieces kept dis-connecting. I have two earpieces, both the same model (Original Jawbone). What happens is I'll be in a call, and all of a sudden the earpiece will disconnect. The only way to reconnect is to go into settings on my phone, turn off Bluetooth, turn it back on, and reconnect.
The current issue started with BOTH earpieces at the same time, after I flashed my phone's radios.
It is obviously software related. I am wondering if I can simply flash whichever piece of software that controls the Bluetooth radio, and if not, where can I find all the EVO radio versions so I can flash each one until Ifind one that works?
Or is it likely that I will need to flash the ROM to fix this issue?
Thanks.
I don't have an answer, but can confirm that I have a similar problem with my HTC Desire (CDMA) & Motorola H17txt headset. The only difference is, I haven't flashed anything (although rooted & S-OFF). I'm on my 4th headset, all with the same random disconnect of the earpiece. The first 3 turned out to be cheap Chinese knockoffs of the real thing, so I finally purchased directly from Motorola, same problem and a little worse.
I've searched everywhere online, and found others with similar issues, albeit in much older dead threads, but never any solutions offered. I'm convinced the problem is in the phone as you stated. I'll be interested to see if any solutions surface here on XDA-Dev.

[Q] Verizon WP7 Trophy Bluetooth searches but won't find/stay on

I have a Verizon htc trophy. On monday I tried to activate bluetooth for the first time in a few weeks or so. I turn the status to on, it searches, doesn't find anything and then kicks back to status off. I've tried this with 4 or 5 different bluetooth devices.
I've scoured the internet and this forum with every search term I could think of with no luck or even mention of a similar problem.
Notes:
I updated to mango beta through the windows phone developer portal when it was made available. I'm pretty sure I was able to use bluetooth at some point with that os, but can't be sure. I updated to the newly available leaked 7720 last night hoping it would fix the bluetooth issue, but it still persists.
No other problems with the phone, and I haven't dropped it or anything. I do however use it to track my runs, and enough sweat has gotten into it to start to change the water damage stickers.
Wich devices did u want to connect?
This phone canĀ“t connect with other phones, just with a few bluetooth-car-kits
and somethig like that!
I've now tried with a laptop, desktop, a cheapy noisehush bluetooth headset, a motorola s9-hd and also a motorola s10... Pretty sure all of which I have been able to connect with before (certain on the s9-hd and noisehush headset).
Any thoughts? This is a pretty limiting problem, especially since my state has banned the use of cellphones while driving.
I'm pretty close to opening the thing up and seeing if one of the Bluetooth antenna wires has popped off its connection maybe.
Anybody want to take a final stab at this question before I tear into my phone?
hi,
I have exact the same issue with my HD2. I have 7720 running. With 7392 it worked fine.
regards Coolity
It's possible there is an HTC driver needed to access the Bluetooth radio on the Trophy that is not on the Beta or RTM but would be on the final Mango roll-out ROM for this phone. All I can suggest is try to load the leaked VZW Trophy Mango ROM (but you can't unlock since it wipes the phone) or wait for VZW to roll out Mango for this phone.
Thanks for the responses. I have installed this version of Mango:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254384
which I'm pretty sure is as final as it gets. I did notice one thing, however. The firmware version seen here is 2305.13.20198.6 something, mine is 2305.13.20104.605.
Maybe this is the reason? All other revision numbers are the same, including the OS version in that picture.
This just in....
I also don't have regular fm radio. It's stuck loading (on 4 minutes now) with no moving forward.
Anybody else having these problems? Tried FM radio with the HTC shipped earbuds and it is still stuck on loading. The bluetooth is still experiencing the same problems.
I've tried to use the leaked htc verizon rom again but am not able to re-flash using the same steps as before.
I opened up the phone and looked around and it appeared that everything looked ok. no burn/oxidation marks anywhere.

[Q] Bluetooth Unstable

I don't think this topic has been discussed before (I did do a search before posting a new one). If it has, please remove it and redirect me to the correct thread, thanks!
So, here is my problem: I have a HTC Sensation 4G phone and I was trying to pair it to my car (Chevrolet Orlando 2012) using bluetooth. The car told me to do a search on the phone and once it has found it, enter the code provided. So I did all that and it seemed to worked out fine. It said the pairing was successful and it was ready for use. Then, things started to get a bit weird. Every now and then, and I am talking like every 10 to 15 seconds or so, the bluetooth will automatically turn off (unpair itself) and then 10 to 15 seconds later, it will pair itself again. While it is unpaired, it will switch over to the OnStar Handsfree Calling Service. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? My brother has an iPhone 4S, and my mom has the LG Optimus, and they both worked fine, no disruptions at all.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?
have you installed any custom rom?

Thank you for the reply, but no, I haven't installed any custom roms before since I don't even know how. I am currently running on Android 2.3.4 and HTC Sense 3.0, software number 1.45.666.5
I have contacted GM about it and they are saying that it's a problem with a lot of phones and they are working with the manufactures to rectify the problem. They have no time frame nor are they very willing to contact you if they solve the software problems. My husband just got a 2012 Toyota Yaris and his HTC Sensation 4G works perfectly! My brand new Chevy Cruize does the same exact things that yours does. Please post if you find out anything more, and I will do the same.

deleted a paired bluetooth device, no pairing again possible

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!

Are you sure that the Bluetooth antenna of your phone is working correctly? It sounds like its an issue of the phone.

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?
Is there a possibility to test the Bluetooth antenna?

Anyone some ideas?

Recently a firmware update for my headphones was released. After updating the pairing with my M8 works fine
