[Q] S6 Bluetooth Streaming Issues - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

Im not rooted, on newest OTA update.
I stream audio from my S6 using apps like Spotify and soundcloud. I have a ford mustang with latest SYNC update.
My phone volume all the way up, i experience volume changing even though its all the way up on the phone.
Note, i have turned off all sound options such as adapt sound, soundlive+ and problem still persists.
Anyone have these issues?

Bluetooth since 2.3

Since the update, my Inspire locks up upon first use after connecting to my car. Reboots, then its ok. Anyone else experience anything like this and have any tips to correct it?
stupid thanks button.....
i havent had any problems with 2.3 and bluetooth. mine doesnt lock up when it connects to my car
Same
I have to force stop the Music app (poweramp). tried factory reset but no real difference. Also on the sony mex bt3800 I have, it will display icons for streaming and calls, well sometimes (of course) only one of those will turn on. Re-paired still doing it. grrrr.

I have the Mex-bt2800. You can turn the music streaming on by pressing the pause/play button when it's it bluetooth audio mode.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using the power of the dark side
Yeah, you'd like to think so, hit the arrow for play on poweramp right?
Well not quite as, if you start the car first then switch bluetooth on (you know powersaving) the message will display that the headset connected message then on the stereo , mostly, only the icon for media streaming will appear and the only reliable way to have both streaming and calls is to switch off bluetooth on the car stereo then switching it on again.
Froyo connected all time without issue and so did the 3GS i had previously.
The poweramp issue came about if you already had music playing through the internal speaker, started bluetooth, (you get the streaming media Icon on stereo) , then there would be no sound and poweramp would act if it had paused but no other button would work until it had been force stop. have only found time for a liittle bit of testing so can't tell much more about symptoms.
any other suggestions welcome
Hey there, I haven't had any issues with my BT either. I've used Ninja, Gingerbeast, and ARHD. I'm using it with the mex-bt3900 (i think thats right). i use it with the htc music app, google music app, pandora, and winamp. i havent had any lockups or anything on my end. what rom are you using? stock rom?

Still stock. Might root and see if those other roms make a difference. Saw comment on ace root kit thread about something new coming out on that so may put up it until what ever it is announced. Be nice to get rid of the att bloat too.

[Q] Bluetooth streaming problem and 4.4.4

I've got a stock G5 with Sprint. Since the 4.4.2 update, I'm having problems with streaming audio to Bluetooth- the streams are incredibly spotty in multiple apps, whether it's Pocket Casts or Power Amp. I get micro-drops repeatedly. I'm tried cleaning out my cache repeatedly, suspending and restarting Bluetooth, and nothing works.
I've seen tech notes that 4.4.4 fixes a Bluetooth issue. Is this the one? Will waiting for stock 4.4.4- or rooting and installing a new ROM with 4.4.4 on it- fix my problem?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Audio breaks in MP3 tracks

Hi all,
I just got myself a 16GB oneplus one. It is running on Cyanogen OS version 11.0-XNPH05Q.
I got this problem, which hopefully someone has a remedy for it:
During MP3 music playbacks (no matter what MP3 player app I have installed), there is always this audio ''breaks'' in between the song. It's like the music will start to play -->break-->play.
The playback is not very smooth and it's rather irritating.
Anything I can do to remedy this?

Honestly, I would try updating your rom. CM12 fixed a lot of audio issues, and a host of others as well. In any case, a custom rom and kernel would most likely be the easiest fix. Other than that, there's probably a thread somewhere around the OPO forums related to this

Unfortunately, I have tried using CM12 (latest weekly ROM cm-12-20150308-NIGHTLY-bacon), as well as LiquidSmooth ROM 5.0.
However, the problem occurs once the headphone is plugged into the headphone jack. I am getting this audio break from youtube videos, MP3 files in internal memory, etc...
But there aren't any issues with the music playback if I am using wireless bluetooth headphones or if the music is coming out from the phone speaker itself.
I suspect this could be a hardware issue? Maybe with the headphone jack?
Hi guys,
Any remedies on my problem? And by the way, if I downgrade my phone to CM11-33R, this issue of "music glitch" will disappear. Any ROM above CM11-33R will have this issue. This occurs only for music playback through earphones. No issues through the phone loudspeakers.
And another thing is what I found out accidentally:
When this music glitch happened, I just need to play some rock music at max volume, the phone will automatically bring up the google voice search screen. And I just need to close the google voice search and the music glitch will totally go away until the next time i plug in the earphones again.
No matter what i have tried, i.e. Official lollipop, franco kernel, etc... The music glitch is still there
Thanks

Bluetooth Media Issue

I've searched extensively and can't seem to find the specific answer I'm looking for. Ever since my phone updated to 5.1.1 my Bluetooth media connection won't work, just my call audio. This really pisses me off because I JUST bought a new head unit for my car so I could stream audio from my phone. My phone is not rooted and I wasn't planning on going through the hassle of rooting this one. Is there a fix without rooting? If not, will rooting and flashing a custom ROM fix the issue? I see there are some marshmallow ROMs already out.
I'm on 5.1.1 and have to power on and off my Bluetooth adapter half the time. Phone doesn't connect to data wifi or blue tooth in till adaptor is rebooted. Says it's connected.
I've tried it. Turned off bluetooth and turned it back on, as well as went into the bluetooth settings and turned "call audio" and "media audio" off/on multiple times. For less than a second if I have music playing it will play through the car and then the phone kicks media audio off again.
After I'm connected, I can take a call and music resumes. I've had problems with some apps that updates have fixed. But not what your describing. Maybe one of the auto connect apps from the play store?

You cannot root the phone even if you wanted to because of the locked bootloader. Do you have the latest firmware update for your head unit? If not see if updating it may help. I have a top of the line Kenwood NAV head unit that worked without a hitch on my S4. When I got the S6 calls worked fine but I couldn't get audio to work. I found a solution on a Kenwood support site and now it works without any issues. Somehow settings were changed when I switch from the S4 to the S6. Also could there be an issue with your mobile data?

Bluetooth headphone streams dropping but not disconnecting while using Netfiix

I have the most bizarre issue.
I have only noticed this while watching something on Netflix, basically I'm watching a video, doesn't matter which through my bluetooth headphones and after about 4 minutes or so the audio stops streaming through the headphones and begins to play through the phone's internal speakers.
I check the status of bluetooth at the time and it says my headphones are still connected, also I would normally hear a message while wearing them to say the phone has been disconnected if that was the case. Now nothing plays through the bluetooth headset not even the system music app and the only way I can get it working again is to switch bluetooth off and on again.
I have tried uninstalling and re installing Netflix
I have tried re-pairing the headphones, I still get the same issues.
If I don't use Netflix at all and just the music app I get no dropouts.
I have only noticed this since the last update to marshmellow and not pointing fingers in that direction but it's just around that time it started playing up.
