Hey, this is Sairam from India.
I got the honor 8 on Amazon and didn't use it until a few days after purchase. initially, the wife just wouldn't connect at all. I could not even set up the device. I thought I had to go to the customer care to get it fixed. and luckily today it worked after I reset the cache partition and the phone. now I have set up my profile, updated to 7.1 and stuff but the problem still exists. time and again it disconnects and reconnects and it is just not at all stable! I had to restart a few times and it worked a few times, but it is not consistent! is there a software update for this, am I doing something wrong, should I be selecting and deselecting some options. please give your inputs. TIA

What ??? 7.1
Make sure you disbaled the WI-FI+ in wifi options.
Mentioning android 7.1, are you using a custom ROM?!
I think he was using custom ROM.

Since I got my phone on release day and I haven't been able to use it to make calls in my 2012 mazdaspeed3. My other phones have worked fine so I thought I needed a software update on my radio. Well everything is up to date and that didn't fix it.
The problem is when I make or receive a phone call the Bluetooth will connect and disconnect every 5-10 seconds. This makes it impossible to talk on the phone.
So I have tried stock roms, sense based roms, and all the CM based roms and they all did the same thing. Yesterday I was trying to figure it out so I sat in my car in the garage and the phone was in a constant connect disconnect loop. During this time I was disabling apps and services hoping to stop it when all of a sudden I turned off WiFi and it stopped. I then called my wife and had a 10 min conversation with no problems. So I now run a tasker profile that when Bluetooth connects it turns off WiFi so I can make calls. The problem is I have a nexus 7 dash mounted and I use the WiFi hotspot to run apps.
So after all that, does this sound like a hardware issue or a software issue? Should I return my phone for an exchange? Thanks for the help

Sounds like u need to swap it out for a replacement. Never had an issue unless using custom kernals.

^ ^ What he said^ ^
Weird...
My M8 should be here today and I have a 2010 Mazdaspeed3. I hope this isn't an issue with all of them. Although, my MS3 has a long history of it's bluetooth not getting along with HTC phones.
Did you have any issues?

So far, no. It took me like 20 minutes to get the phone to pair but once that was done it hasn't disconnected at all. I have music constantly streaming through Bluetooth to the car and I've taken a couple calls with no issue.
having the same issue here. My vehicle is a 2013 Ford F150 with Sync.
Worked up until about a day ago .. Now i can't get stock or aosp roms to lock in bluetooth

Have you tried clearing data and cache in settings?
the Red Viper ROM
I am having the same issue.
It is connecting and disconnecting repeatedly, and it is SUPER annoying because it essentially renders my pebble watch useless.
For a while i was using the Automatic Link (car link) and was getting 'bluetooth share has stopped' errors, but found that when I stopped using the Automatic app it helped a little bit (stopped giving me the 'share has stopped' error), but it still connects and disconnects repeatedly.
The weirdest thing about this is that when I first got this phone I wasn't having this problem, everything was working fine for the first month or so, but it seems to keep getting worse.
I have tried wiping cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, etc. and have not had any luck, but I don't want to do a complete wipe of all my data and lose my text messages, etc. unless ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, since there are images and things in there that I continually refer to for work, and I have not found that titanium backup restores them very reliably.
Has anybody had any luck with this issue? Could it be a defective device? It seems to me like it should be a software problem because it is not something I was having problems with from the start...
I am very frustrated with this, even more so because I love this phone so much. I have never had a phone that I liked as much as this one, usually the first thing I do is install an AOSP rom, but I even like Sense 6 in some ways. With Nova Launcher's 'OK Google' hotword support this phone is a dream come true... if only the bluetooth worked.

Sounds like the common theme may be root for whatever reason. I assume when you first had the phone and it worked that you were not rooted? Possible issue?

you need to let HTC backup app take care of backing up your texts etc...what if you dropped the phone in the toilet tonight or got pushed into a pool?
this app is free...will backup your stuff daily or on demand and will restore email accounts/texts/desktop/apps/blinkfeed settings etc.

install that, backup to the cloud (uses Google drive) and then continue troubleshooting without fear of losing stuff.

Hi guys, I have a little issues with my nexus. When I lock the device, the wifi turn off and reconnect as soon as unlock the device. I've started to have this issue 3 weeks ago, I've updated from stock android 6 to 6.0.1 and the problem are still there (I've tried using cm and 2 or 3 others roms too). I don't have any energy save app or samething like that, and the option in "advance wifi" is set in always on.
I'm trying to read the log but I don't understand where is the wifi problem.

Hi,
Have you tried restoring to the latest factory image https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images with a full wipe?
(make sure to backup any data that you wish to keep before hand)

Yep, twice
This is a known issue that started with 6.0/Marshmallow.
It’s discussed in this thread.
Please to go the official Android Issue Tracker entry and star the item to vote for it. It’s already a high priority and been acknowledged by Google, but wasn’t fixed in 6.0.1. More exposure might help get it fixed sooner rather than later.
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=190667
I'm having this issue since I first used this phone (upgraded to Lollipop right away). It has been around before MM, but back then it felt I was the only one. I had given up.
Please turn off any battery saving applications or battery saver feature and then check again if the issue still occurs....
Hi,
i've noticed a very boring bug, sometimes the screen rotation won't work untill i reboot the phone; after reboot it's all fine untill the bug appear again.
Had it in B360 and also now in B131 (i've done a rollback).
Hard reset/cache clean already done and nothing changed, any advice? It's a known bug?
I did not have this bug on Android 6 but since update to Android 7 I too have this. Like yourself a reboot corrects this bug for a time.
I have reported this to Huawei Honor via feedback and email.
Their reply was this is a feature of the OS..
Yeah for real my reply was not nice let's just say until I emailed a reply with the problems once again.. Just goes to show they don't read the full details laid out when reporting issues..
You should just send them an email with your problem via email from within the HiCare app (Service > Feedback>email)
Same issue here. I bought my Honor 8 last week, and now my accelerator is only working for few minutes after reboot. Firmware is B131. Is this an software or hardware issue?
I have the same problem (smartphone is 2 weeks old, FRD-L19, B360).
Sometimes it occurs daily. Sometimes not for some days.
This is really strange. I did a hard reset and for now it is working again.
But you can try this:
Delete cache of compass app (in system settings) and start app again. I assume that you have to re-calibrate the compass now. Do so and make sure that calibration is successful (i.e. turning the phone in every direction)
Does this fix your issue? I assume that somehow the accelerometer/gyro is also dependent from a correctly working magnetometer.
Edit: After some days I figured out that also a hard reset is not the solution. I updated on B380 now and have no issues so far. Let's see...
Edit nr. 2: issue also occured with B380. Seems to be a software issue deep in the system. Hopefully Honor will fix this issue in the future
Probably isn't just a software bug, Honor service replied me that it could be an hardware problem came out with Nougat Update, they told me that i could have sent them the device to let investigate the problem, but i made a refund and bought another phone.
Which phone did you buy?
I don't think that this is a hardware issue as I have had this problem with Android 6 as well. Nothing is working for me yet. Will wait for my 3rd device and this will definitively be my last one...

Same here. It's definitely some software-related issue. Factory-resetting the phone solves that issue until the next system update is installed. A reboot only helps for some hours (not even days for me). I guess there's something wrong with the calibration data and that exact part is restored to it's initial state when you do a factory reset.
Found out that I have the same issue
I just found out that my gyroscope isn't working properly, for instance while using Google Cardboard app or if I'm trying to watch YouTube in cardboard mode. The strange thing with this issue is that it works perfectly fine if I'm enjoying a 360° vr photo in chrome/opera
I don't really want to downgrade my phone to previous Android version since I don't want to lose all my data...
I have realized that if I have installed "Huawei Health" app, accelerometer seems to work without freezing.
Can someone try and confirm this?

Yes its working thanks for the tip
Recently on my Note 10+ (SM-N975U1) running stock Pie and Dec 1 2019 update, I have been experience 2 issues.
Notifications for some apps are delayed
App updates hang on Google Play Store
For the app updates, they stall with "Download Pending" or the download stalls with <100% complete.
Resolution steps that have NOT worked
Clearing cache and data for Google Play Store
Rebooting phone
Rebooting into Safe Mode
Changing from Wifi to Cell Network Data and vice versa
Stop/starting app updates
Current Workaround
Closing/swiping the Google Play Store and opening it again. It will eventually complete downloading after multiple attempts and install/update an app - you will have to repeat this continuously for every app you want to install or update.
Is there anyway to debug this without doing a complete reset?
This is a problem I've had on many phones over the last few years. It took me a while to figure it out but it's bluetooth related. More specifically, I had the "Dynamic Lock" option enabled on my Windows 10 work laptop (which basically just locks my pc when my phone gets far enough away). I disabled this and now all my notifications come immediately and play store updates work as they should. I realize that you may not have that enabled and if that is the case then turn off your bluetooth for a while and see what happens. It worked for me and several others on the samsung community forum.

Thank you! I turned off Bluetooth but nothing happened but after I rebooted with Bluetooth off everything started to work again. Is there a permanent fix for this? I am assuming turning back on Bluetooth will cause this to happen again? The strange thing this never happened to my Note 8.

I have no idea why this happens. What I do know I have had this issue on LG phones, Pixels, and Motorola's. It isn't a Samsung thing. I think it's an Android Bluetooth issue.
This is an old thread - but in case someone else finds it, I came across someone's suspicions in another thread that their Plantronics headset was causing some kind of problem with their Bluetooth. I began unplugging my Savi headset when not in use and it seems to help... YMMV.
This has been going on since Pie; made me upgrade from my Note 8 to Note 10 and it came right back. Infuriating.
You may also want to try to rub a lucky stone and do some chanting as well, because it's about as effective as hoping for a fix after all this time.
Hi there! I've recently had an issue with my phone where i have no service. My bars have a little x next to them, as though i have data turned off.
Here's the info I've gathered:
My preferred network option is stuck on 22.
It tell me to connect to WiFi (despite being connected) when i attempt to send a text, but tells me to turn off airplane mode when trying to make a call
Nothing data related works, but WiFi is fine.
Now, I've found another thread from early 2022 with the same exact issue. Only thing is, they were having the issue after updating to Android 10.
My phone is still on Android 9. Like, I'm pretty sure its not even the most recent version of 9 either. Like, i have build number PKQ1.190302.001, which isn't the latest build for even 9, let alone 10 and onwards. However, i can't update. I've checked in the settings and everything, it keeps telling me there's no update available, which i don't believe.
I get my service through Boost Mobile, so I'm not sure if they didn't get the update, or if something else is going on. Either way, i have no service, which is a serious problem as i have no other phone and can't get a new one until late February.
I'm sorry if making a new thread wasn't a good idea, its just the only other thread I've found was from a year ago, and my issue is technically different.
Thank you in advance for any help!
