Is there any way to make my Bluetooth connection undetectable ? I have a non-rooted ZTE Zmax2 on lollipop. In the Bluetooth settings, there is no option to turn off discover mode. If I use my other phone to search, my phone always comes up. I use a Bluetooth headset so turning off Bluetooth completely is not an option.
Thanks

Is anyone able to automatically connect to a bluetooth device from your captivate? I am using a sony bluetooth receiver a2dp profile so it's basically functioning like a bluetooth headset.
Pairing works. Manually connecting works. But it would be great if the captivate automatically connected to the bluetooth receiver as soon as i turn on bluetooth. It takes almost five clicks to manually connect but only one to turn on bluetooth.

I have a similar problem in that the phone will sometimes "forget" the bluetooth devices that it has been paired with. I then have to do the pairing all over again.
I'm having the same problem - if I turn the phone off & back on again, it won't connect to my car. The bluetooth menu still shows that it's paired, but it won't connect (even if I try to manually connect). The only way to get it to connect again is to turn bluetooth off & back on - then it connects automatically.
Mine connects right away.
I think it is relate to not being able to set the bluetooth to always visable. My fuze had the same problem untill I put the energy rom on it.
I'm having the same trouble. I have to click on the Connect option which is buried in the Bluetooth menu. Annoying.
Are you using a task manager or some sort of helper to keep battery usage low? I found I was having a blue tooth problem until I saw a OPP service pop up on my task manager. Every time I killed apps I had blue tooth problems until I set this service to be ignored and left alone. Now even after I shut off the phone and turn it back on, I quickly connect to my blue tooth headset.
I'm just a noob here and I am thankful to everyone who posts who have helped me so i thought I's throw this out as something to check on.
Hi ppl,
I'm having issues with bluetooth on mytouch4g phone.
To connect it to hands free set I have to every time turn off and then turn on bluetooth on my phone.
Anyone have similar issue?
Is there a setting somewhere to set default device?
Thanks
Do you mean "Hands free mode" or do you mean pairing a stereo BT headset?
With the stock OS -- "Hands free mode" can be set by either 1) starting the Car Dock application, or 2) Using the BT headset phone button or the Genius button to enable speech commands, and saying "Hands Free On" once the phone is ready.
With the stock OS -- pairing of the phone occurs automatically whether the phone or headset is powered up first. Pairing of media (for stereo headsets) will only occur automatically with any degree of regularity -- from experimentation and observation by others, reported on forums like this -- if the phone's BT is powered up =after= the headset. One can manually disable and enable media connectivity after long pressing on the device in the BT settings window, and that will establish the media connection -- but it is probably easier to have a BT power toggle on your home page somewhere.
If neither of these answers the question you were asking, please rephrase it. And of course, for a custom ROM (non-stock OS), ask in the appropriate ROM's thread in the development subforum.
I mean bluetooth at car. I'm able to pair my phone with car and connect with no issues.
If I get into the car with my phone and bt on - it will not establish connection. I have to turn off bt on the phone and turn it back on. Then it will establish connection. It works fine with my old Fuze.

Hi
First, I have searched for this, but lots of questions, few answers.
I have a Creative D100 bluetooth speaker set and I want to be able to use my Desire S as a clock radio alarm. That all seems OK, except I can't automate the bluetooth connection. I turn on bluetooth on both devices, it pairs, but I have to go into the phone menu to actually connect. That's a bummer.
What am I doing wrong? Or do I need an app from the market for this?
I never really bothered to thing about this until recently, but I personally have three ways I use bluetooth.
1) My car, when I get in my car I want my phone to connect to bluetooth
2) My headphones, when I turn on my headphones I want my phone to connect to bluetooth
3) My home stereo, I only want this connection to happen when I initiate it
Is there anyway to manage bluetooth connections per device like this in Android? As it stands my only thought is to have my home Tasker profile disable bluetooth, but that's a hacky workaround and I'm hoping something better exists (also something that doesn't require tasker so I can make it work on my wife's phone too).
Trigger app should do the trick. You can create profiles for each BT connection.
I have the Huawei Watch 2 Sport Bluetooth model and I am wondering if it is possible to answer and make calls through the watch's speaker via the BT connection to the phone? I've setup a "hard BT connection" to the phone meaning 'Phone audio' is checked in BT settings on phone and I've also enabled 'Play phone voice call on watch' on the watch, permissions should be all good and set to go, but still everytime I answer a call on the wrist I get a prompt saying to proceed with the call on the phone.
Is that really a limitation even though the watch has a speaker (and a mic)?
Hi Floordust,
Did you ever manage to fix this? I've the same issue.
Thx.
Hi, had the same issue. But in settings > connectivity > bluetooth disable the option to answer calls on your smartwatch and enable it again.
I think there was a problem once with an update or something else. But for now i can answer calls on my watch (i have just to be sure that he is correctly connected via Bluetooth to my phone because sometimes i connect to my car an after that bluetooth won't connect again with my watch) ï
