Hi, has anyone run into this?
I'm used to play music from my phone to my car (Toyota Auris hybrid) over Bluetooth. Worked good with my LG G4 but with the Mate 9 it miserable fails. BT connects but it won't play anything.
There's loads of forum messages around since nougat came out, it seems to be an android 7.0 problem that seems to be solved in 7.11
Do you guys have successfully streamed in your cars over BT? Please let us know!

I'll test it when mine arrives as I use bluetooth also.
Some other info, it really seems to be widespread and only with cars. Will check if calling actually works, I was so busy with music I forgot to check.
Btw, I have a Pebble time steel and that now has a better and more stable BT connection across a longer distance than with the lg g4.
Update next day:
Car/phone BT connection is fine.
Audio suddenly worked after a few tries but no tags visible. Much in line with what others say. Really erratic behavior.
Same for my BT speaker, perfect connection.
Another update: It played audio only once. After some more digging on other forums it seems that Android 7 is the issue. A lot of cars won't play audio over BT anymore or just handle the stream only now and than. The connection is there, the song is playing on the phone, it streams to the car but there's no sound. Oddly when you receive a phone call there's no prob whatsoever.

My Nexus 6P on RRemix rom rooted with Marshmallow does this with 2017 Audi A4. Only thing that makes it come back is to hit the bluetooth icon in notification tray off and back on, and it syncs back up with sound. Try that? It might be a Huawei bug?
I had a similar issue on my mate 8. Spotify worked but deezer didn't in relation to showing what's playing etc.. it's likely to be nougat 7 as I've got a pixel xl and no issues with 7.1 at all over Bluetooth to my car. Looking at a mate 9 though as I miss the bigger screen

I have had issues with my S7 Edge where everything connects up and all seems normal but when it plays it either delays before sound works right out of car speakers or you have to do a dance of connecting and reconnecting before sounds works properly. Also think I recall similar glitching with my previous car and my previous android phone but maybe it was previous phone (Nexus 6P) and current car (2015 Nissan Murano Platinum). Only regularly ever play podcasts in car from Beyond Pod app, BTW. Occasionally play something off YouTube but don't recall it glitching.

I have a Japanese 2014 Mazda Demio, and my Chinese Mate 9 (MHA-AL00C00B109SP01) connected, played music no problem, over bluetooth. The artist/song name shows up. But it doesn't support browsing the song library like the iPhone or Galaxy S7 did.
I also have issues to connect my mate 9 to my car (Renault Laguna 3 from 2011). I simply do not succeed to connect the phone to the car: when I try to connect, my car gives me a 4 digits pin number to enter into my phone to establish the connection, I try to connect to my car from the mobile, the box to enter the 4 digits opens and closes before I have the time to enter the digits with a connection error message.
I suspect a software bug on the bt connection with pin validation on the mate side. I can connect without issue to a standard Bluetooth speaker.
I think some cars, maybe many, just have suck computer systems. It is why I always laugh at the idea of self driving cars - like these same morons that make these terrible in car computer systems will be worth trusting to drive you around.

I also have issue on Bluetooth with my Renault Megane 2009
I had to choose nomade device to pair my mate and I have some problem on mp3 play-back that suddenly stop where has it continue on music player.
It seems to be better since I install A2DP switcher from playstore but don't know why
So I have had this issue since I got the phone yesterday and just got it working in my 2012 Toyota Tundra.
Settings > Apps > hit the 3 dots > Show system processes > Bluetooth Share > Force stop, clear data. After that try pairing your device, mine has stayed connect with frequent breaks for 5 hours today
No issues with 2 of my vehicles.
I'm having no issues at all. I'm connecting to a Tune2Air bluetooth adapter ('11 A4 doesn't support Bluetooth streaming).
same issue with Pioneer Android Auto unit.
Sometimes it works out of the box, sometimes music plays (as per screen indicators) but no music, sometimes music plays for split second and stops.
disabling/enabling BT helps
no issues when phone is connected over usb with android auto
Same thing with me as well. I have reached out to Huawei but no response. I have a US version
Just got a new Huawei Mate 9 from Optus Australia. It would not connect to my car bluetooth although it would connect to two bluetooth speakers I have. Optus technical support finally resolved the issue by changing the car bluetooth PIN from 1111 to 0000. Looks like a Huawei bug in that it can only connect to devices without a PIN or with a PIN of 0000. Checked my speakers and one has no PIN and the other has 0000 as the PIN. Hopefully Huawei will fix this.
I have a recent Japanese Mazda, as well as a gear s3 or a Huawei watch connected at the same time, and no issues with Bluetooth at all with any recent Huawei firmwares.
My Fabia plays over BT just fine, Android Auto plays it fine too.

I previously reported no issues, but now BT is very problematic. For me, it seems, the issue stems from multiple connections. Before I needed two bluetooth connections in my car: one to the car itself for phone calls, and one to a BT adapter to stream music to the car's audio system. A couple months ago, I added a Huawei watch to the mix, and things went south. Typically I'll put my watch on in the morning and it will connect to the phone no problem. But when I get in my car, it doesn't want to connect: the car itself is not connected at all, the phone reports that it's connected to the BT streaming adapter, but no music plays through it. If I turn off BT on the phone and turn it back on, typically that will fix the streaming, but not the phone call connection. The phone will report that both the streaming adapter and the watch are connected, but not the car. If I click on the car connection, it will then connect. The watch connection in the list with then lose the "connected" status, but strangely, it stays connected.
So, I can't get three devices to say "connected" in the BT device list simultaneously, BUT if I turn BT off then back on when all three devices are available, THEN manually connect the car connection, all three will work, even though only two of them will say "connected".
I used to be able to hear calls and media whilst connected to bluetooth in my car. one day it just stopped working. media still works but when i make a call or receive one, there's no audio. calls ,audio, and contacts are all checked in bluetooth settings. i've forgotten devices, rebooted, reconnecting, and nothing helps.
bluetooth connects to everything fine, but no call sound over any accessory i try. got a new car and it won't work in there either. i'm on android 7.1.2 .
searched all over and plenty of people are having these issues but none of the posts i've read solve my problem. any help would be appreciated
Hey hey, I have a 128GB pixel with the same issue. I actually opened a case with Google support today about it. about 3 months back, only phone audio stopped working in my car. I was hoping the 8.0 update would fix it but it did not. I have a 2017 Honda Civic LX. I tried everything on my phone - even factory reset. Media audio works, I can play Spotify just fine but when i get a call, I can not hear the other person and they cannot hear me. The phone indicates it is connected via bluethooth... I'll try to update this post with what they find.

128G pixel here. This happens with every Bluetooth device I connect it to. 2 car stereos, 2 speakers, and a headset. All worked fine and suddenly one day... Didn't. I was hoping O Would fix it with all the Bluetooth bug fixes and changes they implemented.

Darn, so the issue is a bit different. Mine works fine on a couple of other speakers I have.
Did anyone ever solve this? I've got the same issue, but it effects *all* my Bluetooth devices, but only when I am switched to my secondary user profile.
I've reset the phone app but no dice.
My phone will say it is connected to the Bluetooth device for the phone call. If I switch to speaker or phone and then back to Bluetooth, it works. Anyone else have similar?

Hi!
After hours of Googling you are the first I found who has the same error.
I have a Lenovo TAB4 8+, my kid wants to use Zoom and his Bluetooth headset but only the speaker and mic on the tablet works. I tried fresh install, without luck:
There are 4 type of users:
- Owner (primary - this is the only profile which works for calls on bluetooth headset)
- Standard Users (secondary - bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Child (bt headset only supports listening: Spotify etc..)
- Guest
The bluetooth headset is working with other devices, but not with this one. Unfortunately I have no other android device which supports multi-user.
Moreover, there was an hour when bt call worked from secondary user, but couldn't find out what is the problem.
Can anybody help me on this?
Best regards,
Karoly
I thought I read somewhere that people were having issues but I couldn't find the thread.
Issue is that after update, the Bluetooth in my car won't sinc over the artist and title anymore. It plays fine, I just have no clue what song is playing. Haven't had a call yet, so can't vouch for that as well.
Anyone experiencing issues with Bluetooth on Oreo?
I believe it a Google problem have the problem on 6p 8.1.
Mi Band 2 worked flawlessly with Nougat and suddenly after the Oreo-update, I have to reconnect it a few times in a week manually or it won't send any data to my phone.
It works great in my car
Just switched to Oreo and now my Garmin watch will not stay connected. Drops in an out or just does not connect at all
Wifi & Bluetooth not turning ON
Hello, Im having problem with my mate 9 MHA-L29C636B191 it somehow disabled wifi and bluetooth,
I thought at first it was just the update to B191. Last night i got the Oreo update using Data and succeed upgrading but still my Wifi and Bluetooth is not turning ON. Should I go to a service center and request for a replacement Wifi &
Bluetooth parts? Any thoughts? Hoping someone can give any advice.Thanks in advance
Hi,
Since the Oreo initial update (8.0), when playing Youtube musics in my car, the title of the videos are not synced with the radio screen (a VW Passat). The first video played, the title is correct but from that point it basically stops updating or shows a previous played video title and not the correct one being played. On Nougat it worked perfectly...
So, I heard that Oreo 8.0 had some Bluetooth issues that Google addressed in Oreo 8.1. (you can imagine my question, right? ). When will Huawei release the update to our Mate 9?
BTW, anyone having Bluetooth issues with Oreo 8.0 that would like to share here?
Txs.
I've been having BT issues since the Oreo 8.0 update as well. For me, I use a BT to FM modulator for my car. Used to connect to it with zero issues before update. Now since, sometimes it won't even connect unless unpair and re-pair the device. This does not happen with any of my other BT devices oddly.

In Developer Options I noticed there were options to change Bluetooth codec and bitrate. I have no idea if this will help, but it might be worth a try.
I get a crackling sound (BT headset), but sometimes also when I'm connected to the car in phone calls only, both ends of the conversation. I think my issue is more with an overloaded system at "quitting time". AT&T doesn't have enough towers in my area.
Had a BT issue with our car today (2014 Kia Rio). It failed to pick up when I told it to connect. ( Phone said connected but car didn't follow suit).Deleting the pair from the phone and the car plus a reboot fixed the issue for me. Sitting on B366 with stock everything.
My experience has been the opposite, running 8.0.0.366 (C432) with no BT issues. No issues now, no issues before under Nougat.
That includes connecting/streaming to cheap whiteline BT speakers, Sony BT speaker, Bosch and Clarion car radios, LG TV Soundbar, Xiaomi BT car lighter adapter, Gear S3 Frontier, Xiaomi Mi Band 2, sending files to a P20, sending files to a 2014 MacBook Air, etc.
All flawless, no disconnections even after extended periods of time (1h30 streaming continuously), no drop in sound quality, same long range.
My Bluetooth works fine with Pandora haven't had an issue. But the moment I try to play my audio Bible or YouTube TV it does not play through my car speakers. I'm not for sure what the issue is and it's getting really annoying. I have tried to reset the settings. It did nothing. I took the optimizer off it did nothing. Have tried to clear the cache and It is grayed out and won't even let me select it. I really love this phone and it's kind of getting too much with this. Any help would be appreciated.
I have no idea what to suggest - apologies. Hopefully, it's a bugfix that either Google or the app developers will have to implement to work with the Pixel 7 Pro.
It's concerning to see this. I'm coming off of Pixel 2 XL and be getting the 7 pro. The annoying Bluetooth issues this phone suffers or something I hope Google would have remedied over the last 5 years. It sounds like they haven't. My work iPhone will connect first to a device over my pixel 2 XL even if the iPhone is on the other side of the house. There are other various weird connection issues like the one you describe that require me to turn Bluetooth off and on, turn the device off and on, and a bunch of other annoying hassle that doesn't happen with the work iPhone.
Bluetooth so far is much faster to establish connectivity and the connectivity is more stable than the Pixel 6 Pro. I will see if I can test youtube tv tonight for you.
I have the same problem with my Pixel 6Pro with Youtube TV and bluetooth in my car.
Other apps seem to work OK... Spotify , standard Youtube work fine for me.
When using a portable Bluetooth speaker the Youtube TV does work.
I would be very happy to hear about any possible solutions to this issue
thanks
