Hey guys, I recently downloaded and installed android 8.0 and love it! But I'm having an extremely annoying issue with connecting my Bluetooth to my car. Never had a problem until the update but now when I try to connect my phone tells me I HAVE to have a 16 digit password to connect to my car.
I've attempted to google his issue and can't really find anything apart from one mention of a 'high security mode' which iv never heard of?
I've enabled developer options and can't find anything.
Any help would be appreciated!
My bluetooth is crashing. Can't get it to turn on. Changed developer settings to 1.4, but no luck.

I would start from scratch with the Bluetooth connection for the car. From the car options try to forget/reset/unpair the connection with the phone...clear everything out. Do the same on the phone. Now try again to pair with the car. Also, have you tried in developer settings to switch Bluetooth versions? Oreo sets the default to 1.6, you can try 1.4 and 1.5 also. Reboot after each switch.

Have you tried a software repair using Xperia Companion from your PC?
This will reset your phone to scratch...everything will need to be setup again...PAIN IN THE BEHIND...but may be necessary. Backup what you must first.
This is a better than a factory reset using the phone alone as the Xperia Companion will install all new software.
Hope this helps!
Thanks Jase.
I will give it a shot. If not, do you think I should try flashing something other than the central europe oreo firmware? I'm in the US, but want the fingerprint sensor working.
Thank you.
I wiped and re-flashed everything. it's now working.
I guess you answered your own question! Glad to hear it is working now.

I have a Pioneer FH-P8000BT head unit which supports USB mass storage devices. On stock eclair, it would find my external SD card, where all my music is, and play the files whenever I connected my Captivate(USB settings set to mass storage).
Now, on Andromeda, it says "USB N/A" when I connect the device. I have tried every combination of USB settings that I can find. I checked the phone to make sure that it says "Mass Storage On" or whatever, and even tried turning it off.
Anyone have any ideas how to troubleshoot this?
I can still play tunes over BT, but I liked the sound quality when playing on USB, and I like that my head unit displayed the song name and artist.
I have an avic f720bt and it wont see my phone either.. Im running Paragon 6.0 (2.2.1 based)
I had given up hope to have it connect like my winmo phone did...
Anyone have a fix??

I'm going to bump this nearly year old thread in the hopes that you found a solution and just forgot to post it here...
I'm using a Pioneer MVH-P8200BT with similar issues. I've been struggling with this for at least a year but now that ICS is coming around for the Captivate I'm wondering what has been accomplished or can be done now.
I have a 2011 Jeep Grand Chreokee. When I first got the phone, it paired fine and I was able to make and receive calls through the BT. I had this setup for about 1-2 days. I then rooted the phone with the stock ROM only removing bloat ware...now I cannot connect via bluetooth back to the car. It seems to connect then disconnect me right away. Ideas?
I know this seems obvious but have you tried unpairing and repairing the phone to the car? Sometimes bluetooth can get fidgety and most of the time it requires you to repair the device. In my experience that generally solves the issues I have had with bluetooth.
Any time I have factory restored my phone I have had to repair it to any Bluetooth devices it was once connected to. Not sure if the Bluetooth address changes for the phone or not on a reset or ROM change, but it seems to be the case. My Infiniti G37s has Bluetooth and I experienced the same issue as you, pair it again and see if that helps.
Thanks for replies...I tried to repair about 6 different times...same result. It seem that the phone and audio connections both connect for about 2 seconds, then the phone disconnects.
Funny, I wanted to try this but kept forgetting. So I just went down to my garage and tried it, and it paired successfully on the first try. Tried making a call via number/phonebook and it all worked.
I'm rooted running Das BAMF 1.3, and paired it with a '11 Sonata Limited.
So I got it working...but without the phone book downloaded. The issue is in fact when it tries to download the phone book. Need to get another phone loaded up with my contacts and do a sync to get phone book loaded to car.

Did you do anything to get it working?
When the device asked me to allow connection to download the phone book, I declined, only then would it pair properly.
I think I figured it out, I have the Infiniti G37, when I rooted & re-paired the Bluetooth, somehow I ignored the question when it popped up asking to "allow" or "deny" the connection.
Yesterday during the whole 4G fiasco, I reflashed & had to re do everything this morning, when I paired my BT, it asked me whether to allow & this time I clicked allow & my BT connects & stays connected fine now.
My question is, is there a way to delete the BT pairing on the phone without having to completely wipe the phone with a reflash?

nevermind, I just found the answer

just hold down "paired"
I believe the issue is just with the MyGig radio on the Chrysler products. I have a SRT8 Magnum with the MyGig and allowing it to download the address book "Breaks" the B.T. connection. I don't know what the issue is? Perhaps too much information being sent to the MyGig and it "locks up"?
I also have a Ford Focus for a daily driver and allowing it to download the Address Book over the phone has no such issue.

It does it on my aftermarket Kenwood double-din unit, too. I've seen it happen on several Ford units too.

I updated my 430N radio with the latest firmware update and phone book downloaded and BT is working without getting disconnected.
Thanks
Thanks for that info. Although I can't do it as I have the "MyGig" retro-fitted into my 07 SRT. So, if I apply the "official update" I will lose GPS time and a bunch of other things.
But, nice to know it works.

Hi,
I recently bought a Nikon Coolpix P610 with built-in WiFi. When I tried to connect my OPO (factory ROM, up-to-date with OTA to 5.1.1 Cyanogen 12.1-YOG4PAS3JL) with the camera WiFi, my cellphone never reach to an IP address.
I have installed the app "Wireless Mobile Utility" from Nikon. I read that the app is compatible with several phone but the OPO isn't on the list so it might not work, but i need it to work.
The camera work just fine because I tried with a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini and it was okey.
I wonder if anyone had the same problem and could fix it or if you can help me to figure it out.
I tried to connect it through an static IP instead DHCP but I failed, I don't know if i'm doing it right.
Thankys in advance

As far as I know, Nikon Cooplix P610 doesn't have the WPS button, and the menu doesn't have the option like in D5300. So, you are forced to connect the smart device trough a tipical WiFi connection, like if the camera was a modem. And it didn't work :s

You don't need wps button , in 5300 connect using wps is inside WiFi settings ,so maybe your cam has that too

No, like I said, I did search the menu of D5300 and it's different to P610's menu. That's why I'm so concern about this because my only option is connect the smart device through a typical WiFi network generated by the camera.
I think that the problem is in my phone settings or how to fix it through a static IP addres, not at the camera, but I don't know how to solve it
Hi.. I am facing the same problem, not able to connect my one plus 2 with nikon d5300. Have got WMU installed, the phone says connected however camera shows not connected and when i open the app, it also says not connected... Please advise.

Hi. I have to say that with the following OTA of my phone that I received the problem was solved. So, I can't help you.
What can I say to you is that I talked to the Oneplus Support and they were very gentle and after like two months talking trying to explain my problem I managed to make an online appointment where they study my phone. Finally, because of my PC's operating system they couldn't upload some files in my phone to solve the problem. But the analyst I was talking said he would raise my problem to developers, and in fact, they solved the problem in the next update. If you really need this solved, you should try to talk to support, even most in your case, because your device has Oxygen.
I hope my answer helps you. Regards.
Hi there, is there any way to force S7 latestes nugat update to remember PIN code for Car Audio of mine?
It has no problem connecting to OBDII adapter remembering the PIN, but wont connect to Car Audio, i have to enter PIN manually every time i enter the car.
any solution?
Same problem here. No automatic connection. Pin input every time. Are we alone?
Looks like... sadly.
I have the same problem - 2016 Volkswagen. Sometimes the phone is remembered, but it asks me to pair 90% of the time. I have a Pixel XL
Of note: I also use Android auto - which I suspect could be the culprit. When I plug in via that connection, the Bluetooth connects without asking for a PIN, but then the phone invariably asks my permission to access messages. Why won't it remember?
No problems in my 2015 Chevy Silverado...
Mine works omn my cars and with my other paired devices.
Some devices I was able to add to smartlock and others I couldn't
Are you on stock rom?
Are you rooted?
I remember I faced this issue once on a previous smartphone because when I installed a custom rom I lost the IMEI.
IMEI corrupt will result in that bluetooth issue.
Hope not your case....
Any one found a solution to the issue maybe?
Did anyone find a resolution for this? I am having the exact same issue on my new S9+. It was working when I first purchased it then the phone updated and now it can't remember bluetooth pin numbers so everytime I get in the car I have to type in the pin code.
Thanks.

Are you rooted? If so, there's an issue with rooted S9+ not remembering bluetooth pairings after reboot. You have to download a Magisk module called libsecure_storage companion.
Hi guys, tried to use android auto today for the first time and having absolutely no luck. Either with wireless or a cable. Car says device not recognized. I've rebooted both, deleted all devices off the cars system etc and still nothing. The phone connectsvia Bluetooth and takes calls and plays music no issue but android auto won't connect. When I plug the phone in via USB it says device not supported?
I've Googled and it seems this is a common issue. Does anyone know of a fix or having similar issues? I'm rooted so wondering is that the issue or could there be a workaround as I'm rooted instead perhaps. All suggestions welcome, thanks!
