Gear S3 Keeps coming unpaired when exiting new Car with Android Auto - Samsung Gear S3

Got a new car the other day with Android Auto. Its a Nissan and the phone is also connected by BlueTooth as well as USB for (Android Auto). While driving my watch is connected, but as soon as I turn off the car and get out my watch also disconnects from my Note 8 and I have to re-pair it. Anyone have any ideas? Didn't happen with my Ford (though that didn't have Android Auto), just Bluetooth

Issues connecting to bluetooth devices yet my android watch seems to not have issue

I have a Huawei Watch and it seems to keep connection with my S6 just fine. I however have issues with every other bluetooth device at times. I have a shower speaker/phone, car 1 bluetooth phone + audio, Car 2 bluetooth phone only, and car 2 bluetooth music gateway. All of these have issues.
I can't get the S6 to connect some times so I have to turn bluetooth off then back on. Sometimes that works, but sometimes I have to restart the whole phone for it to work. Does anyone else have similar bluetooth issues? It is driving me nuts.

In-car bluetooth won't auto-connect

Running the AT&T Variant and though audio and controls work fine in my car once paired the phone is not pairing upon seeing my car stereo.
My LG V10 worked flawlessly in this regard, usually withing 10 seconds of starting the car.
I've tried bluetooth auto connect and tasker but they only work if I toggle bluetooth while the car is on.
If I toggle bluetooth without either of those installed I just get the pop up showing there is a device available and it has about a 30% success rate at connecting.
There is also an issue every few times where even if it connects the skip buttons do not work and no track title is displayed.
It won't connect to my BMW at all!!! What a holy crap.

I tried Samsung Music and Play Music. I verified Media Audio under BT was enabled. Mercedes Benz 45 AMG.
I have a Toyota and it connects flawlessly, T-Mobile variant. I can even go to the car while it's in the garage and leave my phone in the house and it's still connected to the car.
Strange, mine connects instantly (Ford Falcon - Aussie car).
Mine will connect with my car (Kenwood unit) flawlessly. I have to fiddle with it in my other car (Jeep with UConnect), while the wife's S7 works with both.
I've yet to figure out how to get it to auto open Pandora or anything when it connects. My Note 4 and LG V20 both did this seamlessly
Appears to be a "known" issue with S8 - see this thread : https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...id/GS8QA/highlight/false/page/1/thread-id/299

I've tried so many times. even reset cache, Bluetooth cache etc. It adding and then disappearing from both- car and phone. I think it is got something to do with contact sharing but this box never pop out.
I had this problem with the S6 and my HTC Stereoclip (BT to AUX adapter for cars), I had to manually pair it every-time and it was one of the reason why I came back to HTC, now I got the S8 and apparently it's the same problem.
Some BT devices auto-connect but not others

Bluetooth connection drops when Android Auto is disconnected

I have a Galaxy S9+, Gear S3 and a 2018 Jeep with Android Auto. Every time I unplug my S9+ from the car's USB port (which breaks the Android Auto connection) the Bluetooth connection between my phone and watch is dropped. I then have to manually reconnect my phone and watch via the Gear app on my phone. Highly frustrating.
Anyone else have this, or a similar, problem?

Yes mate, having exactly the same issue, got a new Kenwood in car system and now my gear S3 and S9+ looses Bluetooth connectivity every time I get out of the car and have to manually reconnect them each time.... Really annoying!!!
I have a similar issue. I have a S9+ and often when I'm connected to my Sony AA head unit, my phone loses it's connection to my watch. Sometimes this happens immediately after AA launches. Often I will have to reconnect my phone and watch 3-4 times during my 1 hour commute. It also happens sometimes when I'm connected to my Bluetooth headphones.

I think I am having this problem too! I couldn't figure out when it would happen but this makes sense.

bluetooth issue

so, im not sure if this is the best place for this as there are 3 distinct key factors at play. I have an A8(2018 model) (obviously LoL) and a Gear S3 frontier AND an Pioneer AVH2300NEX headunit which runs android auto. So, i guess 4 distinct factors. Anyways, every time i connect my phone via sub to the deck, it disconnects my watch. I can go into the phone and reconnect it and itll stay connected until the next time i connect to the deck again. Not sure if this is a deck issue, a phone issue, a watch issue or an android auto issue. Any help would be appreciated
Does the watch act as an audio device? It would make sense for only one audio device to be connected at the same time.
I have an A8,, Moto 360 v2, and a BT car system and stay connected. My watch does not have a speaker.

Samsung Galaxy active 2 takes Bluetooth calls over Android auto head unit

So as the title says.....
I have a OnePlus 7 pro paired to a Samsung Galaxy active 2 watch. I love both devices BUT many times when I'm driving and using my Android auto head unit and I make or receive calls it usually has 3 options phone, speaker phone, and Bluetooth. If I let it use Bluetooth, it will *usually* go to my watch and not my Bluetooth audio for Android auto
I just want to be clear, it's a pioneer 4200nex head unit, not the Android auto app
I am rooted and have made a profile that is if connected to my head unit Bluetooth then it should disconnect from the watch and kill the watch app (tried with and without the killing the app part) all to no avail
I'm so confused, other than literally turning off Bluetooth on my watch to drive, (which kills battery because then it goes to 4g) is there anything I can do to make the head unit Bluetooth default for calls when connected?
