So I got my edge 2 days ago and I have it paired to my LG tones Infiniums and my LG watch R. Every so often my watch disconnects and my tones do as well. The tones reconnect instantly but I have to turn the Bluetooth off and on just to reconnect my watch. I had no problems having the two set up with my s5.
Anyone else experiencing any similar issues with their bluetooth?
I have a VZW edge and have experienced similar issues with Bluetooth dropping (all 4 of my) connections. I read an article about clearing BT apps cache and/or wiping the phones cache partitions. Neither have worked.
I have my Plantronics BT earpiece connected & the connection has never dropped off.

bluetooth drop
I have the s6. Bluetooth drops and reconnects to my headphones, g watch r and car. Did not have any problems with the HTC M8.
I'm having the same problem with a Galaxy S6 (non-edge) with a 2014 Honda Odyssey. Used bluetooth for a year with this vehicle with an S3 without any issues. Now, the S6 constantly disconnects and reconnects, shows call history from 4 months ago, or gets into such a state that bluetooth is so wedged that only a reboot of car and device will get it to re-pair.
I've found a number of threads searching online. This is not just a Sprint problem. Verizon S6s have similar issues. Not sure if this is a hardware problem or an Android problem...
I've got the same problem with my S6. Connection drops constantly with my G watch R and my car.
I had the Galaxy Alpha before the S6 and it connected perfectly to both my watch and car.
Pretty frustrating.
I've had some luck with clearing cache for Bluetooth and Bluetooth test in app manager. I can keep connections all day long without drops, but i still have the weird call history problem.
Just picked up a standard Gear S2 and updated the firmware. However, it's constantly disconnecting and reconnecting to my Galaxy S7 edge. Bluetooth stays connected for all my other devices. Any tips?

I'm having the same issue with my S2 Classic, but I've got a SGS7. Both are running stock software/firmware. My issue started a couple days ago, so I'm thinking an update was applied to something that introduced this issue. I am hopeful it will be fixed in a future update (sooner than later).

How often is yours disconnecting? Mine was every few minutes. Today it's been flawless. Weird.

I have the same problem and it is very annoying, bluetooth keeps disconnecting from my car, specially during calls and then tries to reconnect again. This never happened to me before in any smartphone so this is a specific problem from the S7. I tried clean cache etc. but the problem continues. Sometimes the call can go 15 minutes without disconnecting, other times it disconnects 2 times in 5 minutes, but it happens everyday twice at least. This is a very strange problem, can't find any solution. It is driving me nuts specially in a 700 euros phone!!
not only on S7
It's the same here with a Gear S2 Classic and a Huawei P8max. A few minutes after being connected (manually) the Gear disconnects.
I just switched over from my S7 edge to a Moto Maxx I had in a drawer - no disconnects today. Gonna swap out my S7 Edge for a replacement I guess.
Replacement didn't disconnect until I switched on high accuracy GPS. When I switch GPS over to power saving, the disconnects stop (so far).
Anyone else noticed a correlation with high accuracy GPS being turned on and frequent Bluetooth disconnects?
After working with three different S7's (2 edge's and one regular) as well as a Droid Maxx, I found that the phones would regularly disconnect when I had High Accuracy GPS set to on (with disconnects occurring multiple times per hour). If I switched the phones to power-saving GPS, disconnects would never occur.
Not sure why this would be but I don't recall it happening before the latest S2 update. I have always used High Accuracy GPS because I use the Tile app which requires it....HOWEVER, the disconnects were SO irritating, I guess I'd rather lose my keys and/or wallet because I turned the GPS to power saving to eliminate the disconnects because it was SOOOOO annoying.
PROBLEM FIXED -Bluetooth on gears2 /note 5 keeps disconnecting
Hi guys,i'm new to this forum. Came across it a few days ago when i needed assistance. I have been wearing my gear s2 classic and note 5 for approx. a year now . As of last week it kept disconnecting and connecting every five minutes which became really frustrating. I was missing important calls and message as my phone is on silent and gear on vibrate mode. After trying numerous attempts of clearing the Bluetooth cache and even hard reset watch and phone twice . It still did the same. I contacted my buddy over at Samsung headquaters is South africa to confirm my warranty date on my note 5. Thats how far i was heading, to return the headset for a new one. Luckily my warranty expires in October 2017. He then advised me the following
1) Check gear software updated - My gear was updated.
2)Check phone software updated- My phone was not updated.
So i got down to doing the update, size was around 1.4 GB
A fast WiFi connection will take approx. 15 minutes.
Had this done 2 days ago
Problem solved :good:
Phone looks and feel way better with the updated software and Gear has not disconnected since then.
Hope this helps.
Please share .
I'm starting to suspect it's a problem with my S7 Edge. I had the Gear S2 connected to a Nexus 6P for a couple months and never encountered connection problems. It's only since I switched to the S7 that I started getting the sporadic disconnects. I've tried changing my GPS settings but there doesn't appear to be a low power mode on the S7 edge with 6.0.1 stock so I just kicked down to the basic GPS only and turned off wi-fi and bluetooth location.
Not impressed so far.
also happens on S8+, but not on Note4
This is happening on my S8+ also.
It also doesn't work properly with my car radio and microphone (I can receive calls well enough, but issuing voice commands is a nightmare).
I had the Gear S2 and car radio connected to my Note4 before. They worked perfectly.
I will try lowering the Location accuracy. In any case, looking forward to upgrading to Note8 in a few months when my S8+ contract ends.
Whenever wifi is connected and I'm using my Bluetooth headphones my internet speed drops from around 70mb/s to 2mb/s; it can also disconnect the wifi as well
This occurs also in safe mode
Is it something with the android os? Because this never happened with my old iPhone
I am not a google pixel 2 owner, i have a mi a1 oreo 8.0 january update and i noticed the same problem when my bluetooth headphones are connected
Agree. I came across this post. When speed testing my device with blue tooth on I get 20mbps down. Turned it off and I was getting over 69mbps down. I have 100mbos internet service. Turned blue tooth back on. The test was slow. It would certainly appear Bluetooth being on slows the wireless.
Hi suddenly my WiFi stopped working now I am not able to connect to any WiFi network.
Any help would be appreciated.

As of today I am having the same issue; I have tried multiple networks to no avail. Booting into safemode and turning on/off wifi does not work. If I find a solution I will update this post accordingly.
Me too. I believe it happened after I installed the May security update.
Just started happening to me about 4 hours ago. First it went in and out a couple times but I was within say ten feet of the router. Now I'm one room away, but have line of sight to to the router, and I have no Wi-Fi connection. It will come up as poor with no reception and then connect but never get internet. LTE works fine, wifi worked fine all day even.
Not working WiFi. I can not even turn the WiFi tumbler ON, some security updates Fixed Bluetooth. Do you guys have the same issue?
My wifi also stopped working. I was on P beta and it was working fine but yesterday simply stopped.
I rolled back to 8.1, same problem. Rolled back to 7.1 and nothing.
It only gets wifi if place my phone on top of my router.
You guys think it is hardware related? Because it didnt fell or anything, it just stopped working overnight.
Same, it happened after I upgraded to P
My wifi stopped working too. I tried everything.. it will not connect to any wireless access point anywere
I tried going back to stock image 9.0 and tested NDE63V (Standard) and still nothing.
I get and see signals but fails to connect.
any ideas?
dam...this sucks..time to dump this pixel and buy something else
I looked on eBay.. a few listed as Bad WiFi
Apparently it's fairly common on eBay and on the forums with no fix for it
Hi all
I’ve recently bought a BMW E38 and it came with an android head unit. I’ve tried to connect to my iPhone to use it as a hotspot and it connects but only for a few seconds. Radios not working either but I think it’s not been fitted correctly.
I’ve tried researching online but can’t see any solutions. Really appreciate any help.
The details:
Model- PX5 (1024x600)
Android 8
MCU- MTCE_GS_V2.78_3
CPU- 8 core 64bit CPU coretex a53 @ 1.5g
What did the reseller suggest and has that been tried with anything else?
I had similar issue where HU's wifi turns off automatically after few seconds. Is your HU doing the same?
WiFi problems
I also have the same issue WiFi will either connect and disconnect repeatedly, or will just not find my network at all?? Either 4g dongle or tethered to iPhone. Although my phone will find the single and connect so I know they work so it must be something to do with the HU it’s nearly new running android 8.1. So far I’m stumped with finding a solution.
mine turned out to be the antenna problem. If I take off the small wifi antenna then wifi stays connected. this has reduced the wifi range considerably. I know it sucks but only thing that has worked for me so far.

Yeah I’ve had the same issues with my unit, I find sometimes it stays connected if I power up the iPhone hotspot a few seconds before powering up the head unit. If I forget and the head unit powers on first usually it refuses to obtain an IP from the phone.
