Bluetooth Disconnect Issue

So I of course love my Thunderbolt, but I have one issue I can't seem to fix. My phone connects to my trucks headunit over Bluetooth for talk and audio. Once I start Pandora or the native music app, about 20 seconds later the phone says "Bluetooth Headset Disconnected" and thats that. Anyone else having this issue and are there any known fixes yet?

this just started happening to me after using BT successfully for months. i have tried pairing and repairing. initial pair connects headset and media, but after a few seconds i see the message headset disconnected.... the media profile is still paired but not headset.
any ideas?
thanks,
eric

i have this issue as well, but i'm running bamf 1.6.2... i wasn't going to say anything itll i was on CM again (it did work when i was on CM previously)

Try unpairing, then repairing - this time deny any requests to let your car access the TB's phonebook via bluetooth. That solved it for me.

happens to me every once in a while.
stock
no root.
i have to turn bt off and then back on and it reconnects without issue.

[Q] Nexus 5 Bluthtooth Honda Pairing Issue

I just would like to quickly check if anyone has the car Bluetooth pairing issue for Nexus 5 and anyone has a solution for that? Thanks.
My wife and I both received the latest Nexus 5 from Google 1 week ago. I have rooted and installed the DroidKang v14 Xmas Edition and Google APK package and also installed the Mod fixing the volume issue. Everything looks fine until we try to pair the nexus 5 to my 2013 honda Accord LX.
the Honda HandsFreeLink Stereo found my Nexus. It connected. However, the stereo disconnects and reconnects repeatedly, with the phone displaying the message, "Unfortunately, the process com.android.bluetooth has stopped." I tried to reboot the phone and also play around the Bluetooth function, the error still come out. It looks like that the error will happen every time when the car Bluetooth tryes to import or read call history or contact info from the phone. So I changed Car Bluetooth setting and disable syncing info from phone. Now the connection does not drop and I could hear the music in car from phone. However, I lose the most function for Car Bluetooth because I cannot see call history directly on car system.
Even the Bluetooth connection stables after we disable syncing function. The bluetooth connection will fail again when we walk back from retailer store to the car. the reconnection will disconnect and reconnect again and again. it is so crazy and unusable.
I do not know if this issue is related to the phone hardware or the CM ROM. I have not tried other ROM but at least I know my old HTC phone and samsung phone seamlessly connected to this Honda Car Bluetooth system. There is no any issue. So I think the issue is related to Nexus 5 or this ROM.
I will try to do more research on this. in the meantime, if anyone has the same experience or a solution for that, please let me know. Thanks.

Definitely the CM ROM. I have a Nexus 4, and since upgrading from CM 10.2 to 11, I've been experiencing intermittent BT dropouts with my Pioneer car stereo that I've never experienced before.

i have the same issue with my Mercedes A bluetooth connection. it's very annoying. I am running CM11 nightly of yesterday....so far only 1 cm nightly worked....I think is was 14-12-2013.....I wish there was a way to revert to this only with the bluetooth part.....so far...no solution

I have a Honda with Honda link. I have that problem when I have the read sms feature on the car enabled. If I turn it off then it works fine. I use it daily for a 50 minute drive each way to work.
I don't ever use the call history on the car, but the voice call works fine. And of course streaming music, which is mostly what I do with it.

I'm on kangakat BT to stereo audio call and text with no issues -dodge truck. Worked fine on stock as well so I would try a different ROM and see how it acts.

[Q] Force phone audio to phone earpiece when connected to Bluetooth device.

Hi, I recently flashed my phone (Galaxy Note 3) with CM 11 and my Galaxy Gear with null_23.
I connected the two of them via Bluetooth and everything seemed to work perfectly, until someone called me...
That was when I noticed that my phone forwards my audio to my gear speakers as it counts equivalently to any bluetooth earpiece. I tried unchecking Phone audio profile in bluetoth device settings but that completely disconnects my gear. (I should probably also mention the reason I want them connected is cause I'm using Bluetooth tethering for internet access on my gear).
I tried using an app I found called SoundAbout that forced audio device but it did so by (unchecking phone audio profile?) disconnecting the gear entirely.. which is not preferable.
I have been trying to search around for any info on how to do this, but all I've ever found has been to do the opposite, force bluetooth over other outputs.
Currently I have to change the output manually every time I answer/call someone, which takes a few sec where the other party wonders why I'm not responding..
I thought I would be able to change default phone audio output in my phone app or something, but no, no such setting is available.. its frustrating to be stuck with so little customisation even after invreasing it with a custom ROM... dang..
Thanks for any help!

Bluetooth Issue

Hi Folks,
Anyone had any similar problems? When my Z5 is connected to my VW Golf it constantly disconnects and reconnects, tried rebooting the phone, un-pairing and re-pairing still no joy
Just wondered if it was a bug sony needed to be aware, it's as if it's a power save feature that turns it off and on?
Cheers in advance.

Mine stays connected to my van fine

I use one of these in my car -> http://www.amazon.com/SoundBot-Bluetooth-Hands-Free-Wireless-Streaming/dp/B00RH29CJO
No problem so far, it stays connected

I´we got the same problem with my Z5 and Pebble Time

I also have bluetooth streaming issues. Connections initiated by the phone seem to work fine. Those initiated by the car do not. Have zero issues with a Nexus 5. I believe the issue may be related to the "Throw" service.

My Z5 only connects to my Nissan Qashqai 50% of the time. My previous HTC M8 would connect every single time, but Z5 has to have bluetooth turned on/off to work with the car. It's incredibly annoying and I hope it can be improved with software

Sony will probably have to fix it in next update...

I have the same issue with a garmin watch but only since the update I had yesterday, same with the car stereo again since yesterday

Tried disabling the "throw" function and it's still doing the same.... really annoying !!!
Hope Sony are reading...

My Bluetooth keeps my device awake, which renders my Android Wear kinda useless

I have a 2014 mini and the Bluetooth doesn't have any connectivity issues, but I definitely have bugs with music skipping, especially if I have maps open or something. Better than the initial 5.0 Bluetooth bugs but still really annoying. Probably my main gripe with this phone so far other than the fingerprint scanner

I have exactly the same issue as the OP with my garmin watch it connects then disconnects every 5min or so, whats weird is if i unpair and repair the connection is good for about 3hrs then starts playing up...
I also have a nexus 6 which i've tested with lollipop 5.1.1 and marshmallow and it works perfectly, my HTC M8 i used to have did exactly the same issue's as this sony, its got something to do with the trusted device settings i think the nexus doesn't ever ask about trusted devices both the HTC and this Sony do so it can't be just coincidence...
Is there anyway to disable the trusted setup on the device ? Garmin are saying to connect via there garmin connect app and don't actually connect with the phones bluetooth directly, i've tried that still doesn't work properly... frustrating...

I also have the same problem in my BMW.
Additionally, when I start call using built-in handsfree it suddenly switches to the phone's speaker then after 10 second back to handsfree.
Hope Sony fix this soon.

Does anyone know if its possible to install a apk or whatever it needs to be so that you get rid of whatever modifications sony have done to the bluetooth process the only reason i ask is i know through my nexus 6 that the bluetooth works perfect from google so replacing the Sony setup with the pure google setup should cure the bluetooth issue's or if there is anyway to disable the trusted devices issue that i'm sure is causing my bluetooth problems this is annoying me enough to consider getting rid of this phone... Excuse me ignorance i'm not clever enough to understand if this is an impossible task...

Don't know if this will work for others but last night i unpaired everything bluetooth on my phone switched the bluetooth off restarted my phone switched the bluetooth on and re-paired and now the 2 things i had issue with are working flawlessly since about 6pm last night... ???

Similar issue with pebble time, every so often it disconnects. My only doubt is which of the two is failing the pebble or the phone.
No problem with car in-calls or audio bluetooth.

I have a Z5 and I have pretty much the same issue with a 2010 Jag XF, phone connects via BT for a differing period of time then disconnects, sometimes reconnecting sometime not.
I've not had this happen during a call, and not with other Sony Xperia Z's I've owned.
Also I don't appear to have this with other items connected Via BT.

'I aslo have problems with the BT. The z5 will pair with my garmin edge 520, after that it can't find it no more and can't connect.
With my Stereo amplifyer, NAD D3020 it can connect as it does not require pairing but the connection is poor and i get alot of artifacts when i play music over it.
For the Edge 520 it stops everytime it ask for Trusted device.
My phone is in for warrenty repair, Was for a cracked rear glass, but i told them about the problems with the BT too. The phone is on it's way back now. Hope this will fix the issue. If the BT don't work, the Z5 won't be usefull for what i want to do with it.

I know with my garmin, garmin told me not to connect with the phone directly just the connect app, weirdly my watch has been working perfect for about 3 days and now this afternoon is playing up again I've installed nothing new or changed any settings baffling

Similar problem here with my Android Wear and my Cartio Strip. Continuosly disconnect, B icon on status bar disappear, then re-appear after 1 - 2 min.
Someone known how to disable throw?
Thanks

bluetooth no call audio pixel

I used to be able to hear calls and media whilst connected to bluetooth in my car. one day it just stopped working. media still works but when i make a call or receive one, there's no audio. calls ,audio, and contacts are all checked in bluetooth settings. i've forgotten devices, rebooted, reconnecting, and nothing helps.
bluetooth connects to everything fine, but no call sound over any accessory i try. got a new car and it won't work in there either. i'm on android 7.1.2 .
searched all over and plenty of people are having these issues but none of the posts i've read solve my problem. any help would be appreciated

Hey hey, I have a 128GB pixel with the same issue. I actually opened a case with Google support today about it. about 3 months back, only phone audio stopped working in my car. I was hoping the 8.0 update would fix it but it did not. I have a 2017 Honda Civic LX. I tried everything on my phone - even factory reset. Media audio works, I can play Spotify just fine but when i get a call, I can not hear the other person and they cannot hear me. The phone indicates it is connected via bluethooth... I'll try to update this post with what they find.

128G pixel here. This happens with every Bluetooth device I connect it to. 2 car stereos, 2 speakers, and a headset. All worked fine and suddenly one day... Didn't. I was hoping O Would fix it with all the Bluetooth bug fixes and changes they implemented.

Darn, so the issue is a bit different. Mine works fine on a couple of other speakers I have.

Did anyone ever solve this? I've got the same issue, but it effects *all* my Bluetooth devices, but only when I am switched to my secondary user profile.
I've reset the phone app but no dice.

My phone will say it is connected to the Bluetooth device for the phone call. If I switch to speaker or phone and then back to Bluetooth, it works. Anyone else have similar?

Hi!
After hours of Googling you are the first I found who has the same error.
I have a Lenovo TAB4 8+, my kid wants to use Zoom and his Bluetooth headset but only the speaker and mic on the tablet works. I tried fresh install, without luck:
There are 4 type of users:
- Owner (primary - this is the only profile which works for calls on bluetooth headset)
- Standard Users (secondary - bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Child (bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Guest
The bluetooth headset is working with other devices, but not with this one. Unfortunately I have no other android device which supports multi-user.
Moreover, there was an hour when bt call worked from secondary user, but couldn't find out what is the problem.
Can anybody help me on this?
Best regards,
Karoly
