Blue tooth issues

I was trying to sync my g2x phone to my uconnect on my dodge. It dials but completely mutes the call. Then it s shutdown the bluetooth on my phone. I tried out on my wifes g2 and would reboot the phone when I tried to shut down the blue tooth. I had to reformat her phone to stop that. We have 2 g2x phones. Again will sync but crashes after that.

I can't even get mine to pair with my Subaru BT. It see it, tries to connect then says incorrect pin but doesn't even prompt me to enter one. Its like there is one already stored for it, but its never pairs since day one...not sure what's wrong. I've factory reset once too. Hmmm

I think there is a problem with the blue tooth in these phones.

Its connecting fine to my Samsung headset. I currently am using the bluetooth to watch a movie.

I just got the G2X myself and so far I'm blown away by it except for the BT issue....
I use my phone with NO ISSUES on my Jawbone Era, but the SYNC in my F150 doesn't like it.
It's strange, the phone drops the BT connection yet still shows (icon at top) that it's connected. But under settings it's not.
Once this happens you would think you could stop / start the BT but nope! Gotta reboot the whole phone.
Anyone have any resolution to the issue? Hoping that the new GINGERBREAD once released will resolve the issue.
I've noticed that it seems to be related to data though, seems that my SYNC trying to sync the contacts is when it flips out... I'm going to disable the contact sync and see if it stays attached. I'll post my results soon...

Works in my Infiniti, better than the G2 did. Do your cars try to find the phone or does the phone have to find the car? Mine's the latter. When pairing, the phone actually pops up "Invalid PIN" and then a second later it pops up a screen that allows me to enter the car's PIN. It's as if the phone's sending a PIN without me entering it. You might want to try setting the car's PIN to 0000 or 1234 and see if one of those two codes are what the phone's first trying to transmit.

I can go either way, find the car or have the car find the phone.
I'll try using default codes 0000 1234 as you suggested... Mine does connect and pair, but then later on just drops the car like a bad habbit and I have to reboot the phone for any BT device (headset or car) to reattach. Almost like a service gets locked or something....

Does anyone have a fix for this?

Less issues with the G2x on my 2010 Ford Focus with SYNC than with my Nexus S. It seems it doesn't always reconnect properly upon start up, even though the car thinks they're connected, but that is only streaming. Phone calls always work fine. The Nexus S had all kinds of problems if you had WiFi turned on.
*sigh*
My iPhone4 had almost zero with the BT, but every time a major iOS release came out, I'd have some connection issues. However, Ford would then release a SYNC update and everything would be fine again. I'm guessing that NO ONE is following the BT standard as closely as they should, and that causes issues.

The phone does seem to be half finished.

I have a 2010 F150 and I'm having the same issues with Bluetooth and this phone.
Initially it attached fine and downloaded my phone book but now it disconnects and leaves BT on the G2x in a funky state.
I'm kind of hoping that Gingerbread will have an update, but I don't know I want to wait that long. I'll be touching base with the T-Mobile store about this.
If you have any updates with your truck let me know. I'd be happy to only use this for the phone for a short period of time.

I synced my phone to my car on the first day w/o any issues.
The car's phone setup menu did not find the phone. I had the option to either choose a fixed pin or a random pin. I chose a fixed pin and then went to my phone to search for the car.
It found the car in seconds and I paired it with the phone using the pin I inputed initially from the car setup.
I was able to download my phonebook with no issues and it only took about a minute or less. It couldn't download my entire phonebook, but that was just because of my car's inadequate space. I'd imagine with a 12.5GB hard drive in my car that wouldn't be a problem, but oh well.
Also, phone quality is great, reception is great, the quality on the other end is great as well. The best thing is that the G2x actually notifies me during a call if I have an incoming call/text/email...something my G1 couldn't do while paired to my car.

What kind of car? The various head units have different Bluetooth implementations. My Infiniti (and I'm assuming Nissan's) work fine. We've heard that Ford and Subaru don't.

I don't know if those of you who can't connect have tried this but it might be worth a shot. Change the name of the phone in Bluetooth settings. Turn Bluetooth off and on and/or reboot the phone until that name sticks. For some reason, it would either go back to "T-Mobile G2x" or show that the phone had no name until it finally stuck.
The Bluetooth profile/stack in the phone is buggy. It'll either drop the profile completely or randomly drop a device. If I reboot the phone sometimes they come back and sometimes they don't. The profile for my car didn't show in settings but the car connected to the phone anyway. It will sometimes play phone sounds through my speakers or headset and other times it won't with none of the settings changed in any way.
I hope either an update or Gingerbread help stabilize Bluetooth.

Acura. So yeah it seems Infiniti/Nissan and Acura/Hondas are fine. Before I got the Acura I had a Nissan and it was able to sync my G1 w/o issues as well.

Yeah the bluetooth on this phone is a little funky when trying to connect to my kenwood kdc-bt945 system, whereas the nexus s worked much smoother.

Think it's a hardware bug for the Ford stuff? I'm thinking it's not, I'm thinking that it's actually a software issue givin the profile weirdness.
Perhaps one of the gods here will have a rom out soon with better BT drivers / managment in it then what's on stock. I wish I knew more about rom cooking cause then I could work on whipping up a batch of gingerbread cookies.
I miss my Sync and now debating on taking the phone back under remourse and going back to my Vibrant 3G.
Other than this BT issue I love my phone.

Given that someone else is having SYNC issues with this phone maybe I shouldn't return it under remourse for another one but simply wait and see what happens. Any thoughts??

Have you checked on Syncmyride.com for SYNC updates? This fixed a few issues I've had over the past 2 years with my Focus.

Bluetooth problems

I've been having bluetooth problems with this phone since day 1 & I'm wondering if it's just my phone or if anyone else is having the same experience. No matter what rom or headset I use, I get a craptastic connection. I don't have any problems pairing devices, but I can't get 10 feet away from the phone without it disconnecting and I can't even turn my head without the audio cutting out. It also randomly disconnects for no reason & sometimes won't reconnect until I reboot. This has happened with every rom I've tried & every headset too. I've bought & returned multiple headsets thinking it was just my Blueant, but it happens with every one.
Could I have a faulty unit or does the bluetooth on this phone really suck this bad? I listen to podcasts & music all day long at work so I need to have a decent connection. Opinions needed please.

I think it may be a bad phone.
I have and used the following bluetooth devices:
Plantronics 590A
Jawbone Icon and Era
BlueAnt S4 which I use in the car. And auto connects before I sit down to drive when I have it on.
Sony Ericsson MW600
And Jabra Pro 9470 (office phone setup that connects to my phone via bt)
All connects without a problem. Have you done a titanium backup and perform a factory reset? And after the reset use titanium backup to restore app and data only and leave the system settings alone. You can restore the wifi stuff if you like. From there that's like a fresh install. Hope that works for you.

Yeah I've done many, many wipes & fresh installs & nothing helps. I don't have any problems connecting, I just have problems STAYING connected & listening to audio. It cuts out constantly without me even touching the phone. I've never had such shoddy bluetooth on any other device.
*sigh* Looks like I may be doing an exchange...

Well before leaving the store...if you are going to a brick and mortar to do the exchange, bring the bt headset with you and try it out there and try to replicate the problem with a new phone.
I do not have range problems but I don't usually have my phone more than 5 ft way from me when talking on it via bt.

I have a replacement on the way for bluetooth problems,people complained of a horrid background noise and the range was maybe 8 feet before major static would kick in

My BT sounds like crap! People say it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel or they can't hear me that well, when they speak to me it cuts in and out.
This is when I connect to my Parrot BT in my truck. I know its not the Parrot system because my HD2 works fine with it.

I have a Dual car stereo & now that I think about it, everyone says they can't hear me even though I installed the mic on the side column & it's no more than a foot from my face at any time. Aargh this is so annoying. Freaking $600 phone & my damn $25 RAZR from Big Lots has better bluetooth.
If I bring it to the store, would they exchange it for me? I ordered it directly from T-Mobile, I didn't get it in a store.

No you will have to call T-Mobile and do a warranty exchange. I have no problems with BT on my phone at all.

So whats the deal? Has anyone been able to fix the BT problems with this phone yet?
Can we flash a different BT.apk file or something?
Somebody by now should have some answers I would think.
My parrot system in my truck suck ass with this phone. Always cutting in and out.

horrid bluetooth sound quality
it seems a lot of people have been having issues with the bluetooth sound quality. i have mine paired with a motorola HF850 car kit, which has bluetooth v1.1, or something like that. i wonder if the problem is with backward compatibility, as people seem not to have as many issues with newer devices. would flashing a different radio potentiall help this problem? is it possible to downgrade the bluetooth version with a custom ROM? any other thoughts on ways to address this issue?

Bad sound quality through Bluetooth

I'm having bad sound quality when making call through Bluetooth in my car. It sounds like the audio is breaking up. Anybody else have this problem? My note 3 was working just fine through bluetooth

I also noticed the same thing yesterday driving home. I did not have this problem earlier in the week. I'm not sure what is going on. This along with a strange wifi problem has recently surfaced. If I leave my wifi range and then return, it does not want to reconnect. I have to toggle the airplane mode then wifi will reconnect. I am running stock 11s rooted with 2.7.1.0 TWRP, Xposed framework, Xpoxed GEL, Gravity Box, Tasker, Autovoice.

I am. I'm looking for suggestions for things to try and improve the stuttering/skipping/dropouts that I'm experiencing when using my OnePlus One in media playback mode through my Chevrolet MyLink car radio. I have some additional details to offer and things I have tried:
1) The playback application doesn't seem to make any difference, the problem is most pronounced (unlistenable) when playing back music files and is highly annoying when listening to speech (e.g. podcast) files. I suspect the difference is the music having a beat that gets interrupted while there are some normal pauses in speech so the stuttering blends in a bit more. In any event, it's not a problem with the playback application.
2) It seems unlikely to be a problem with the car radio (Chevrolet MyLink). Though I haven't done extensive testing I have done some using my old Motorola Atrix HD with a nightly CM11 on it from a few weeks back and that does not seem to have the issue, or at least it is not nearly as severe.
3) When I use a third party bluetooth audio receiver (some cheap no-name one from ebay) the quality seems to be fine but when I try to go directly to the car stereo I get tons of stuttering/skipping/drop outs.
A friend suggested that I try running an alternative kernel and see if that improves things. Any ideas on whether that may be the case or which one might be the best to try? Any other suggestions? It's quite annoying that I can't playback audio through the car radio...
Thanks!

Anyone have any ideas? I tried running the Franco kernel tonight and it seems to have the same issue. I did some logcat captures and I seem to be getting a lot of "W/bt-btif ( 2104): btif_media_aa_prep_2_send congestion buf count 24" messages when playing back audio through the car radio. See the attached full logcat captures with both the stock and Franco kernels and connected to both an alternative Bluetooth dongle and to the MyLink car radio.
Any suggestions?

After further testing I was able to determine this is an issue with the phone and not the car radio as I was able to find at least one other BT device which exhibits the same issue. I have created a ticket for this issue at: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-1005 if you are also experiencing this issue you are encouraged to go and vote for the ticket.

One question though. Do you have WiFi on when traveling in your car? Try turning it off and see if you still get skipping.

I do in fact have WiFi on at all times. I tried turning it off for the day today while doing some driving and it appeared to clear up the problem. I would think it's still a bug because having WiFi on should not prevent BT audio from working correctly but it at least gives someone a direction to investigate.

So I've done some slightly longer term testing and what I can say is the problem is not totally cleared up when WiFi is off but it is much, much better (definitely listenable). I will still get a couple dropouts when first starting a stream (sometimes, not always) but after 30 seconds to a minute it seems to settle down and be fine as long as I keep the WiFi off.

Just to clarify the situation..
My Xperia Z2 have the same issues.. It is not your phone but the Bluetooth stack in android that pretty much sucks the problems you are dicribing has been there since android 4.2 on a lot of devices.
I have just changed my Lumia 1020 out with this Z2 and call me disappointed in music quality! On the Lumia you would have trouble hearing a difference between jack/auxiliary and Bluetooth..

And today I did notice some dropouts even with WiFi off well into my drive but it was just a few packets I would guess more of an annoyance than a serious problem. I've heard about issues in the Android BT stack but the confusing part of that is why certain devices (such as my Atrix HD) don't seem to experience the problem.

I have a bluetooth stereo I use every morning in my home and a bluetooth stereo in my car. I almost exclusively use pandora, but I have also used power amp on longer trips. I have never experience this issue with my opo. I have ran 25-33 all rooted with no problems and am currently using CM11 nightlies. I also am not having any wifi issues.
Sorry it's not very helpful, but it doesn't sound like a widespread issue at least.

It certainly has something to do with the particular bluetooth implementation used by the receiver interacting with the OPO. As I indicated I have three different BT receivers I can test with and the problem affects two of them but not the other.

Choppy Bluetooth?

Just wondering if anyone else is having issues with their bluetooth? Mine seems to be ok for a while then starts cutting in and out to the point I can't listen anymore. Seems to happen every time I use it and with three different radios. I plan on visiting the Sprint repair shop but wondered if I was missing something?

Having the same issue, I've already tried deleting the bluetooth cache, un-pairing/re-pairing and even went as far as to boot into recover and delete the entire cache.
Nothing seems to fix the issue, still cutting out like a champ. Starting to consider going back to the note 4.

Same problem here when I connect to my cars bluetooth radio. Also the network connections seem to be all over the place as well..

Give them time, they had some similar problems with the S6 Edge and got them fixed relatively quick.

Yeah I can hold the phone a certain and replicate it often ... Usually blocking the bottom right antenna spot

Same problem here. I've had similar issue with the Note 5 but it wasn't as bad as on the Note 7.

My Bluetooth reception is a lot better on my 7 than note 4.. I haven't had any choppy or cut off music with my bluebuds x. On my note 4 i would get it all the time

Mine has been VERY choppy. To the point that I dont even bother with Spotify in my vehicles anymore. And thats my main source of music!

Ditto. Ford sync system in my 2015 super duty. I thought it was my trucks problem. Par9ked my wifes s5 and no issues. Pandora is my main source.

0 problems here, pairing 4 different types of headsets, 3 vehicles and even my computer and gear watch streaming the sound through either. I mainly use pandora and sometimes just the music app or youtube. My data is what seems to be very touchy on this phone, where on my n5 I still get more bars than the n7 in the same areas.

I have the same problem, so does my wife's Note 7.

I had the same problem then I went into the settings for advanced location services and turned off random bluetooth scanning and wifi scanning. Now it works perfectly.

I have no issues with Bluetooth whether it's in my car, through my wireless headphones or using my Gear 2. I'm loving this phone. The bluetooth connection is actually better on this phone than my Note 5.

Also...Nearby device scanning. I shut that off as well and it has helped. Still, I'm getting occasional dropouts, but it's tolerable.

Agreed. I'm still having far too many dropouts/interruptions/skips/pauses etc.... to call it a final release. I listened to music that was on my device and still experienced the dropouts/interruptions/skips/pauses. Has anyone else experienced Pandora speeding up toward the end of a song?? Almost like the song is sped up to compensate for the delays/interruptions??

Meh...

My (negative) findings after 2 months

My Nokia 7 PLUS was bought mainly as a backup phone and to experience pure Android without paying an insane amount for a Pixel. I like my new Nokia but there are so many positive reviews out there that tell you why this is a good purchase, so I'll try to mention the weird stuff I've experienced. This phone has been my daily driver for 2 months now.
First and foremost the quick charging issues that I have another topic going about, so I'll skip this part.
Wi-fi disconnecting and giving me a notification sound. I don't know if I'm just being a noob here, but getting "ghost" notifications throughout the day has been a bit bothersome. At first I didn't know what was going on, I was seemingly getting notification sounds without there being any updates for me in any apps. But the other day just as I unlocked the phone I got the sound and saw the wifi being disconnected for a splitsecond. I don't know how I turn off wifi sound notifications without impacting other more important sounds so I guess I'll just have to live with this. But it's still annoying to get this sound if the wifi DC's for half a second.
Rubber around the edges of the screen coming loose. I got the bronze coloured model and if you look just at the edge of the screen there's a millimeter thick bronze frame, and between that frame and the screen some sort of black rubber or adhesive is starting to come loose. I noticed this about 2 weeks ago and I thought it was a hair that had become stuck and as I started pulling about 5 cm of black rubber came loose along the screen. I think the rubber casing that was with the phone is the culprit, because when your phone is in your jeans for several hours a day the "case" seems to dig just at the edge of the screen which could cause this. The rubber that has come loose was not visible before and it's not visible that it was been removed either.
Google Assistant opening seemingly randomly. I have two phones on my computer table just to the left of me, both with Android Nougat installed and Assistant enabled. Sometimes I sit in complete silence and play PC games, only with audible key clicks and Google Assistant will open on my Nokia 7, yet it has never happened on my other phone (Galaxy s8+). It's spooky in more ways than one.
The 3.5mm jack port is behaving weirdly. I've tried with 3 different headphones and it's always the same. I need to push, pull and turn before the headphones get properly connected and still then they can get disconnected at any moment. You can probably imagine how much of a nuisance that is if people around you don't agree with your musical taste. (hint: train rides.)
This may seem like a long list but my overall impression is still largely positive, especially when it comes to lack of bloatware, duplicate apps and the battery life is outstanding.

The headphone thing I find as well but I have a carbon fibre case on my 7+ and this is what causes it as if I remove the case the problem does not manifest. The other things you mention I have never had. I have the TA-1055 UK version since its release.

I really don't recognize any of your complaints. I can't type a long search query in the adressbar in Lightning, but that's about it. Maybe you should RTM your device.

The ghost notification sounds annoys me as well.
My headphone jack works fine.
Issues I have:
Ui stutter/lag compared to other phones.
Phone showing as uncertified in google play store.
Not getting android updates (still on may patch).
Battery not as good as expected for the battery size the phone has.

Don't experience any of the above issues here. Fully reset you phone or RMA.

Thanks, did the first part and saw an improvement, but will this impact battery life? Because I will gladly keep the stutters if I lose my almost 2 days bat life

About a week since I have received the phone.
The mobile connection is usually 4g+ to 4g. depending on where I am I guess. However, I have noticed that on phone calls, the icon changes to hspa+
I don't notice any speed change but I'm guessing this is related to no support for VoLTE?
Also, I notice that from wifi to mobile transition occurs very sluggishly. Sometimes on banking applications the wifi doesn't work which is odd, but it doesn't connect to mobile on the fly either. Usually I have to turn off the wifi for it to work.

I've also had some weird experiences with my N7 plus.
1. Headphones do not work randomly. When this happens only the speakers work the ear piece on the phone doesn't work as well. Phone needs to be rebooted to fix this.
2. Some apps, such as Prime music and Quora, do not work when connected to the TP link ADSL router aty home. The iOS versions of the same apps work from the same router. Apps on the Nokia start working only when I connect to mobile data or office WiFi.

The mobile connection is usually 4g+ to 4g. depending on where I am I guess. However, I have noticed that on phone calls, the icon changes to hspa+
I don't notice any speed change but I'm guessing this is related to no support for VoLTE?
Also, I notice that from wifi to mobile transition occurs very sluggishly. Sometimes on banking applications the wifi doesn't work which is odd, but it doesn't connect to mobile on the fly either. Usually I have to turn off the wifi for it to work.

Volte is a mess on Android. In the UK it mostly only works on iphones or Android devices bought directly from the network who modify the firmware.
That said I'm on BT Mobile in the UK (uses EE network) and Volte and wifi calling work well based upon my experience so far using Oreo 8 with July updates.

Since the day I started playing PUBG, the call speaker is acting quite weird. Many times when I get a call, the speaker will be automatically turned on, but it doesn't show that. I have to turn it on and back off to hear it from the earpiece. It mostly happens when I'm in a game. But it has happened other times as well. I don't know if it is a problem on just my phone or android in general. Anybody have any fix for this?

Is it even safe to change the default settings which is done by the manufacturers??
