Bluetooth on Nougat 7.0 - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

So, after upgrading to Android 7.0, I am unable to use buttons on my bluetooth headset to play/pause/skip tracks. The music plays fine, but the buttons are not working. Also, when connecting to my car's stereo by bluetooth, it says "phone not connected" even though it IS connected and I can play music just fine here, as well. Apparently this is a known bug in Android 7.0. Anyone else experiencing this? Any sollutions beside waiting for the 7.1.1 upgrade?
I should also note that my phone is not rooted, however, it is no problem doing that if it (for some reason) would help.
Thanks for all feedback!

Waiting is my "solution" too. AOSP is already available in Android version 7.1 ...

I have exact same problem and feel I have searched everywhere for a solution but to no avail. I recommend downgrading to MM until. 7.1 if you can't handle not skipping songs..

no problem here, everything works as it should, playback control, sound and track information ... i connect phone to sony mdr1000x headphones (LDAC codec) and car audio (SBC codec)

Bluetooth headset compatibility

Hello guys, anyone use a bluetooth headset? if yes, what brand is it? i use LG tone+ that support bluetooth 4.1, a2dp and apt-x, but the problem is the sound frequently become distorted, especially when my kenzo far enough from bluetooth headset (50 cm +). Is the problem with headset or rom i used? i use miui 8 dev cn. thanks for help.
hey, i think its headset related. im using a AudioMX Bluetooth Over-Ear headset and it works within a reach of 4-5m. after that distance i have problem with audio distortion.
I have a sony SBH60 and it works flawlessly. No distortion at all, and little to no "audio lag" (I mean audio/video sync), at least I haven't noticed while watching classic youtube content, I don't use my phone for movies or TV Shows.
For me I am using Samsung level U and everything works well. Besides, I have a portable bluetooth speaker too (china brand) and also works.
what rom do you use guys? i use miui dev cn official. thanks.
I'm using latest xiaomi.eu rom
Sorry for the late reply, I'm using 8.1.3.0 Global, always kept my phone up to date, no issues so far.
Also tested with my in car Pioneer MH380, a Logitech MiniBoom (UE), and a MPOW Bluetooth transmitter.
I've never had any issue with bluetooth whatsoever, maybe a clean install could help.
Hi, anybody having their sounds lagging every 10-30 seconds? I'm streaming via bluetooth to my car head unit and the sound keeps disappearing about a second and it's pretty annoying. and only this phone having this trouble. Update/clean install doesn't help. I'm using global dev.

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

Troubles with bluetooth speaker

Hi
I have a bluetooth speaker wich I can not make it the sound arrive. My Mi4 is running LineageOs (7.1.2), it connects successfully to the speaker, but the sound does not play...
The icon of the bluetooth is different from the "normal" one and when I see the notifications space, appears the player (in this case Spotify) as it was casting to the player, but again, no sound. When I disconnect the bluetooth, the speaker makes a sound (blink), telling that it's disconnected.
I have read about this problem elsewere, so I think it's not just me who have it.
Any ideas or help would be very appreciated.
Kind regards.
Hi.
After some time, I found out that this is a common problem in custom roms based on aosp android. It's widelly commented in the lineage forums. No solution right now.
Just for all you to know.
Regards.

New PX5 Android 8.0, 4GB RAM, Bluetooth not working

Hello,
I've got a new Dasiata PX5 with Android 8.0 and 4GB of RAM in my Honda CRV-2012.
Everything is OK exect the Bluetooth is not working. It can not recognize any device. Also no device can see the radio (tried Galaxy S8 and iphone 6).
I tried changing the bluetooth adapter in Factory menu then reboot, but no one worked.
Since bluetooth is 100% essential for me, any help would be appreciated.

I had the same issue when upgrading from Android 6.0 to 8. Have you contacted Dasiata about the issue?
If unable to resolve, consider downgrading to Android 6, at least to test your bluetooth. You can always go back to 8.

Bluetooth noise
I have recently installed an HA2102-V840-8 "10.2" HD Touch Screen Octa Core Android 8.0 car GPS player 4G RAM + 32G autoradio" in my Lancer. It's an awesome unit, looks great and has great features.
The only problem is digital/electronic noise whenever there is audio playing. The noise is only present when my phone (or any phone) is paired with bluetooth and some/any audio source is active. It happens with usb audio, radio and phone. It stops as soon as the phone is unpaired/bluetooth turned off or music is paused. It also stops briefly between music tracks. Has anyone else encountered this?

Bluetooth issues on Oreo 8.0 & 8.1 update

Hi,
Since the Oreo initial update (8.0), when playing Youtube musics in my car, the title of the videos are not synced with the radio screen (a VW Passat). The first video played, the title is correct but from that point it basically stops updating or shows a previous played video title and not the correct one being played. On Nougat it worked perfectly...
So, I heard that Oreo 8.0 had some Bluetooth issues that Google addressed in Oreo 8.1. (you can imagine my question, right? ). When will Huawei release the update to our Mate 9?
BTW, anyone having Bluetooth issues with Oreo 8.0 that would like to share here?
Txs.
I've been having BT issues since the Oreo 8.0 update as well. For me, I use a BT to FM modulator for my car. Used to connect to it with zero issues before update. Now since, sometimes it won't even connect unless unpair and re-pair the device. This does not happen with any of my other BT devices oddly.

In Developer Options I noticed there were options to change Bluetooth codec and bitrate. I have no idea if this will help, but it might be worth a try.
I get a crackling sound (BT headset), but sometimes also when I'm connected to the car in phone calls only, both ends of the conversation. I think my issue is more with an overloaded system at "quitting time". AT&T doesn't have enough towers in my area.
Had a BT issue with our car today (2014 Kia Rio). It failed to pick up when I told it to connect. ( Phone said connected but car didn't follow suit).Deleting the pair from the phone and the car plus a reboot fixed the issue for me. Sitting on B366 with stock everything.
My experience has been the opposite, running 8.0.0.366 (C432) with no BT issues. No issues now, no issues before under Nougat.
That includes connecting/streaming to cheap whiteline BT speakers, Sony BT speaker, Bosch and Clarion car radios, LG TV Soundbar, Xiaomi BT car lighter adapter, Gear S3 Frontier, Xiaomi Mi Band 2, sending files to a P20, sending files to a 2014 MacBook Air, etc.
All flawless, no disconnections even after extended periods of time (1h30 streaming continuously), no drop in sound quality, same long range.
