What to you mean???Elaborate what???
I am having this problem as well. After using my Bluetooth headset the volumes will not return to the levels I had without the Bluetooth headset connected. It also happens on my Galaxy Nexus running Kit Kat so I think it is an OS issue. I do notice that the volume icon that comes up on the screen when attempting to change the volume is different than normal as it doesn't have the 2 "soundwaves" coming out of it. I have yet to find a fix other than turning the phone off and back on.

Please forgive my ignorance, but what is "headset mode"?

EDIT: nvm, I get it.
Google results suggest that the problem may be due to dirt in the jack.
I tried an app about a minute ago, that called SoundAbout and seems is a good temporary solution for the problem. If someone else tried something else and it worked for him please let me know.

I agree, probably not dirt in your case. So, what do you think? RMA?

I dont know, I think is a combination of a hardware and software issue. Maybe sth get contacted in jack and facted up my nexus.
My old Xperia randomly did this. Just keep plugging the headset in and out until it clears

I think it is a kitkat issue. I have the same problem but after a restart the problem is gone until i connect my headset again

This same thing happens to me. Its weird whenever i connect my bluetooth the audio starts to come out of the device's earset (where you put your ear). I have to restart the phone to fix it until I connect a bluetooth again. When I use the volume buttons I see a different bar (like when you are on a call or something) instead of the bar to adjust ringtone's volume. It is super annoying. Sometimes music comes out of the speakers but if I open an app that speaks over bluetooth (waze for example) the music audio stops coming from the speakers and starts coming out the ear speaker on the phone..
What I do to replicate this is to connect a bluetooth headset. Turn on music (google music) open waze.. Audio starts coming out the ear speaker instead of the phones speaker..
Any fix??

Did you find any other solutions for the problem?
I too have this issue. Same on two handsets. Connect to bluetooth and works fine. Disconnect and all future audio comes out of earpiece hole until you reboot and then back to the speaker.
Anyone found a solution for this? I have the same problem.

I may have a workaround for this issue.
This problem has been driving me crazy. The first time after a reboot, my Nexus 5 connects to my car audio just fine via bluetooth. But after I shut the car off, the phone's speaker is turned off, and all audio plays through the earpiece. Additionally, the next time I try to connet to my car's Bluetooth, it will no longer play audio through the bluetooth connection (although I can still control the device via bluetooth).
Rebooting the phone fixes it, but it's a pain to always be turning the phone on and off, and if I'm already in my car, it won't re-establish the connection if I restart my phone while the car's still running.
I downloaded the free 'Fast Reboot' app, which essentially closes and restarts all core user processes. Sure enough, launching 'Fast Reboot' seems to fix the problem... at least until the next time I disconnect.
It seems something in Kit Kat is locking the audio to the earpiece after a bluetooth disconnect. I've got my fingers crossed that the upcoming Android update fixes this problem for good. :fingers-crossed:
In the meanwhile, let me know if Fast Reboot does the trick for you too.
Thanks for the workaround, it works well. I think google will fix this in the next update, it only says "Bluetooth fixes" right now but what else are they gonna fix? Well, i hope they will.
Anybody else experiencing a weak bluetooth connection with the S6? I'm losing the connection with my Garmin Vivosmart in places I've had no problem connecting with other devices. I'm curious about other's experiences on this as a search hasn't turned up much yet.
I have noticed this as well. I could walk pretty far away from my S4 before it would drop. With this S6, I only get a few feet away before audio gives out. Doesn't disconnect, just loses audio.
Also, random loss of audio from time to time, even when the phone is right next to my head.
Yeah I've noticed the same thing with my S6. At work I don't always keep my phone on me and with my M8 I could walk around the whole building without my G Watch disconnecting and with my S6 I can only get a few feet away before the connection drops.
Yes happening with my moto 360 it is annoying and hopefully will be fixed soon
Haven't had any disconnect issues, but for some reason connecting to my car stereo has been a nightmare. It takes like 5 tries before it actually connects.

I'm having issues with my car bluetooth too. It works fine initially, but every couple of days I have to delete my phone and re-pair it for it to connect again.

Same here, takes me 3 or 4 times to try to bluetooth sync with ford sync system. Yesterday it would sync then play for 30 seconds and pause play back. I don't know if its the phone or lollipop as alot of the problems I see are also happening on my nexus 9.
I'm getting sent a new one since I've been having these problems

I had Bluetooth issues on an old phone, and when I flashed different roms the issues were fixed. This leads me to believe that it's software related

Identical experience. With my S4 and my Nexus 9 I was able to literally get to the edge of my large yard before losing connection with my Vivosmart. Now I can't leave the room since getting my S6. I hope it's software and we can somehow change it, because it's ridiculously bad. I also have had to turn my BT off and back on three times this week because it would crash and refuse to talk to either my Vivosmart or my car. As soon as I toggle the BT on the phone it reconnects to everything. Seems to be triggered by starting my car (i.e. the BT car interface becomes available.) Never had either problem with the S4.

Since so many people are having this problem, it's probably phone related and not just an isolated incident.

Yeah this is one of my only remaining complaints about the device. I can't use my Vivosmart for sleep tracking anymore...it disconnects/reconnects way too many times and the persistent vibes wake me up.
So honest question...let's assume it is fixable by software tweaks. What's the fix in that scenario? Reroute more power to bluetooth radio? Other?

Well I've seen a lot of threads online for other devices where an Android update affected bluetooth range. Obviously there's some sort of software control for this. I'm rooted, and I'm willing to try some things but I don't know where to begin. I'm not an OS / Kernel guy.
i wonder if its what it is connecting to as well as a problem with S6? i have the Motorola Buds headset and it has worked as expected giving me about 100 foot range when talking on it. i also have a 2013 Ram truck with Uconnect and have not had any issues and it connects right away and reads my text etc.. as it was doing with my Note 3 and ATIV.
i havent tried other devices but have a few like a speaker and will see as i use them if i have issues.
Haven't messed with Bluetooth that much on this phone, but I think wifi is a bit weak

I've had Bluetooth issues. Seems really short range.
Wifi is about the same as my LG G2, but BT is about half as far. I used to be able to get around 15m at work (lots of shelving) but now I'm lucky to get 5m before hearing static and starting to cut out. Sucks because BT is my main source of music at work.
Anybody had better luck after applying the new ota?
Hello everyone!
I have mate 7 mt7-tl10 (b125sp02) rooted and i bought a plantronics voyager edge and it seems that there incompability with my mate because when i speak suddendly its hearing like being into water! i replaced with another one and still the same. i tried with an old nokia and its perfect! now i replaced it with a sony sbh 52 and the same issues. So i think something is wrong with my mobile. Any idea what's happening or a solution?
Thanks in advance!
I noticed that, the solution is to turn off wifi when using bluetooth headset !! Try it, trust me it will solve your problem
So I have had my phone since it was released and used it with my BMW to make and receive calls and listen to music. This week I got a huawei watch and now I have issues in my car. I am not getting sound through the car and it disconnects and reconnects. I read you can have 7 devices connected to Bluetooth at one time. Anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

I have a Gear 2 Neo, Gear Fit, and 3 vehicles with bluetooth connections. None of which have any problems unless its a kernel problem. On more than one occasion with both the Note 4 and now the Note 5 I have had to change or reflash a kernel or rom because of bluetooth issues that have surfaced.
Thanks form the reply. The problem is in am stock and not rooted.

had the same issue with my s5 and had to disconnect my moto 360 to fix it or in my case i had to turn it off
I figured out how to get gasket to disconnect android wear when I get in my car. Annoying that I have to bring up the app but it does work.
Hello. So I've recently switched from a Oneplus 7 to 7 Pro and I have a problem with airpods volume. Whenever I connect them to the phone, even if I put the volume at max it still sounds like half the volume from the Oneplus 5. I've tried enabling/disabling absolute volume, reconnecting them and forgetting them, changing audio codecs, wiping all data, wiping data of bluetooth, but without no success. Nothing really worked. Anybody in this situation/knows some solution?

Have you been running Android 10 on your 7 pro since you got it? When your Airpods are connected try going into bluetooth settings, click on the Airpods to go into the headphones settings, then toggle 'Media Volume' off then back on. I was having bluetooth issues with my car and I randomly tried this one day and everything was all good again so hopefully you haven't tried it and it works for you.

Yep, I am currently using Android 10 and this issue was also on 9 (Pie). I have tried the media volume also several times but without no success (forgot to mention). Also another thing to mention, my phone is not rooted but I can accept some volume boosters or settings in root folder if that actually works.

Hmm I was really hoping that would work. In that case I'm not too sure. Have you ruled out a defective pair of headphones? I ask because I have a pair of Powerbeats Pros and those are pretty similar and also Apple made and I don't have these issues. Other than that, I believe Viper4Android is a rooted extension that might help you.

They are not defective because I use them a lot on other devices and also on Apple ones and everything is fine. I will try the Viper thing + root asap (or as soon as a tutorial for rooting android 10 arrives) and give you and the forum feedback. Thank you for your suggestion!
Having the exact same issue. Weird because it was fine just a while ago. No idea why it decided to decrease max volume all of a sudden.
I am also facing the same exact issue and it is crazy frustrating.
Mines seems to work fine 50 % of the time. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!!
Sanme problem here in a mi mix 3
I dont get any sound at all, completely mute! But I know they are communicating on some level because I can pause/skip tracks using double tap while in spotify! Makes no sense
I can confirm that I faced this issue on oneplus 6 , pissed me off, sold the Airpods 2, sold the op6 .. got myself oneplus 7 pro, bought airpods 2 and issue appeared again ... which is RIDICULOUS and making me think oneplus might be doing this on purpose because it worked very well on Android 9 for OP 7PRO until I upgraded today to Android 10 and here I am the same issue.
any solution maybe in the horizon ?
I have Airpods Gen 2 as well but don't seem to have any issue.
I am rooted, and running rooted stock OOS 10.0.3 with arter97 kernel, with a few Magisk modules, but no DSPs or anything that affects volume/bluetooth. I also use Android Auto with either cable or bluetooth often.
Has anyone tried troubleshooting this using Developer Options?
I would trying disabling absolute volume and see if that has any affect on it...
Also see if changing the Bluetooth Audio settings in Developer Options has any affect on it... I can see how perhaps a few of those settings might affect or fix this.

I spoke to oneplus they advised resetting network and disabling absolute volume in developer options. the problem seemed to vanish.
Please guys try and report back.
now I got full volume of the airpods
one more thing, please format your phone and it will work fine
Seems like a pretty extreme way to resolve it... Don't you think? ?
Hi, did anyone ever get a permanent answer for this??? I've been having the same issue and have tried literally every step. Even when i format my phone sometimes it will work and other times it wont. even when it does work its a temporary solution and the volume will eventually go low again at some point - this is when i format my phone all over again losing all my apps and settings which is very frustrating!!
