Since I got my phone on release day and I haven't been able to use it to make calls in my 2012 mazdaspeed3. My other phones have worked fine so I thought I needed a software update on my radio. Well everything is up to date and that didn't fix it.
The problem is when I make or receive a phone call the Bluetooth will connect and disconnect every 5-10 seconds. This makes it impossible to talk on the phone.
So I have tried stock roms, sense based roms, and all the CM based roms and they all did the same thing. Yesterday I was trying to figure it out so I sat in my car in the garage and the phone was in a constant connect disconnect loop. During this time I was disabling apps and services hoping to stop it when all of a sudden I turned off WiFi and it stopped. I then called my wife and had a 10 min conversation with no problems. So I now run a tasker profile that when Bluetooth connects it turns off WiFi so I can make calls. The problem is I have a nexus 7 dash mounted and I use the WiFi hotspot to run apps.
So after all that, does this sound like a hardware issue or a software issue? Should I return my phone for an exchange? Thanks for the help

Sounds like u need to swap it out for a replacement. Never had an issue unless using custom kernals.

Weird...
My M8 should be here today and I have a 2010 Mazdaspeed3. I hope this isn't an issue with all of them. Although, my MS3 has a long history of it's bluetooth not getting along with HTC phones.
Did you have any issues?

So far, no. It took me like 20 minutes to get the phone to pair but once that was done it hasn't disconnected at all. I have music constantly streaming through Bluetooth to the car and I've taken a couple calls with no issue.
having the same issue here. My vehicle is a 2013 Ford F150 with Sync.
Worked up until about a day ago .. Now i can't get stock or aosp roms to lock in bluetooth

Have you tried clearing data and cache in settings?
the Red Viper ROM
I am having the same issue.
It is connecting and disconnecting repeatedly, and it is SUPER annoying because it essentially renders my pebble watch useless.
For a while i was using the Automatic Link (car link) and was getting 'bluetooth share has stopped' errors, but found that when I stopped using the Automatic app it helped a little bit (stopped giving me the 'share has stopped' error), but it still connects and disconnects repeatedly.
The weirdest thing about this is that when I first got this phone I wasn't having this problem, everything was working fine for the first month or so, but it seems to keep getting worse.
I have tried wiping cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, etc. and have not had any luck, but I don't want to do a complete wipe of all my data and lose my text messages, etc. unless ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, since there are images and things in there that I continually refer to for work, and I have not found that titanium backup restores them very reliably.
Has anybody had any luck with this issue? Could it be a defective device? It seems to me like it should be a software problem because it is not something I was having problems with from the start...
I am very frustrated with this, even more so because I love this phone so much. I have never had a phone that I liked as much as this one, usually the first thing I do is install an AOSP rom, but I even like Sense 6 in some ways. With Nova Launcher's 'OK Google' hotword support this phone is a dream come true... if only the bluetooth worked.

Sounds like the common theme may be root for whatever reason. I assume when you first had the phone and it worked that you were not rooted? Possible issue?

you need to let HTC backup app take care of backing up your texts etc...what if you dropped the phone in the toilet tonight or got pushed into a pool?
this app is free...will backup your stuff daily or on demand and will restore email accounts/texts/desktop/apps/blinkfeed settings etc.
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23329332407589902
install that, backup to the cloud (uses Google drive) and then continue troubleshooting without fear of losing stuff.

Recently on my Note 10+ (SM-N975U1) running stock Pie and Dec 1 2019 update, I have been experience 2 issues.
Notifications for some apps are delayed
App updates hang on Google Play Store
For the app updates, they stall with "Download Pending" or the download stalls with <100% complete.
Resolution steps that have NOT worked
Clearing cache and data for Google Play Store
Rebooting phone
Rebooting into Safe Mode
Changing from Wifi to Cell Network Data and vice versa
Stop/starting app updates
Current Workaround
Closing/swiping the Google Play Store and opening it again. It will eventually complete downloading after multiple attempts and install/update an app - you will have to repeat this continuously for every app you want to install or update.
Is there anyway to debug this without doing a complete reset?
This is a problem I've had on many phones over the last few years. It took me a while to figure it out but it's bluetooth related. More specifically, I had the "Dynamic Lock" option enabled on my Windows 10 work laptop (which basically just locks my pc when my phone gets far enough away). I disabled this and now all my notifications come immediately and play store updates work as they should. I realize that you may not have that enabled and if that is the case then turn off your bluetooth for a while and see what happens. It worked for me and several others on the samsung community forum.

Thank you! I turned off Bluetooth but nothing happened but after I rebooted with Bluetooth off everything started to work again. Is there a permanent fix for this? I am assuming turning back on Bluetooth will cause this to happen again? The strange thing this never happened to my Note 8.

I have no idea why this happens. What I do know I have had this issue on LG phones, Pixels, and Motorola's. It isn't a Samsung thing. I think it's an Android Bluetooth issue.
This is an old thread - but in case someone else finds it, I came across someone's suspicions in another thread that their Plantronics headset was causing some kind of problem with their Bluetooth. I began unplugging my Savi headset when not in use and it seems to help... YMMV.
This has been going on since Pie; made me upgrade from my Note 8 to Note 10 and it came right back. Infuriating.
You may also want to try to rub a lucky stone and do some chanting as well, because it's about as effective as hoping for a fix after all this time.
Hi,
Those who installed LineageOS on T5, could you please share your experience ?
I noted from few comments on this forum:
5GHz Wifi is not working but 2.4 GHz is working fine
disable HW overlays in the dev options to remove blur
disable AudioFX to correct sound
Is there any other prooblem ? What about bluetooth, camera, GPS, gapps ?
Any feedback will be appreciated
I'm the one who said it didn't work on 5GHz wifi, it is working.
I had to wait several minutes until my AP appeared, once I connected for the first time it did not give me any problem.
Also something like this happened when starting LineageOS for the first time, it did not connect neither in 2.4 nor in 5 but waiting it worked.
After disabling AudioFX I installed Eqfy Equalizer which works fine.
The camera app is not working, a white line appears in the middle of the screen and there are no photo options or anything.
Since I don't use it to take photos, I have not tried more but I suppose that with some other camera app it should work.
Not tested bluetooth or GPS for now.
On the other hand, the tablet works more fluidly and you have more free space.
In the absence of trying more things, for now I'm sticking with LineageOS.
Thanks for your feedback.
I have flashed LienageOS 16, and have patched RAMDISK.IMG to install Magisk.
It looks OK, I like it so far. There are only two issues:
* Camera is not working
* I have only 2,4Ghz WiFi (which btw is working fine), but I do not see 5,0 GHz network in my list
GPS, bluetooth, sound, image,...everything seems working OK, but I didn't check in details.
Despite those two issues I will stay with LineageOS. I prefer it one hundred times over EMUI. And for camera, which btw is not very important to me neither, I will probably find a fix one day.
From time to time your 5GHz AP may appear, you can connect but then it disappears again.
Yesterday I checked, I thought it was connected in 5GHz but no, the connection was in 2.4
I confirm that the Wifi in 5GHz does not work.

I have sorted it out.
For WiFi, I changed the channel on my router, put it at 44, and now the 5,0 Ghz Wifi is visible and I can connect.
For camera, I have found a Gcam which works OK, it is "GC_4.1.006.126161292-41003513.apk", easy to find on XDA.
So now I have LineageOS fully working. For the time being everything is fast and stable.

I thik it is related to router. On my router, in settings, the choice of channel was set to automatic, I put it to 44 and it is visible, and the connection is fast and stable. For some reason the tablet doesn't see higher frequencies.

I'm going to take a look to Gcam, I've tested a couple of cam apps but not working.
Now I'm using channel 56 but previously I tested other channels, maybe the day it worked I was using a lower one, will test too.
Thanks a lot.

Hello again, I have changed the channel to 44 and for now it works fine.
The Gcam is not working for me, It tells me that it cannot find the camera and closes.

Hello. If this can be of any help: the Gcam which I installed, I found it on this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20/themes/google-camera-huawei-p20-kirin-devices-t3882198
It is : Google Camera v4.1.006.126161292, in the first post, section OTHER AVAILABLE APKs.
Maybe we’re not using the same version.
After flashing LineageOS, I found that I had two cameras : HwCamera2.apk 8.0.0.200 which I think is Huawei camera, and Camera2.apk 2.0.002. First one was crashing immediately, the second one didn’t work with a white line in the middle. Now I have first one disabled, second one is still there but useless. And third one is the one above which is OK.
Has anyone had any luck with Netflix?
I tried LineageOS yesterday and was unable to install Netflix from the play store, likely because it said I was uncertified. I was however able to download and side load Netflix, which initially appeared to resolve the issue, however any attempt to play content resulted in a 5.10 error. From what I can tell, this appears to be something to do with DRM, however the few potential solutions I've found using Magisk didn't help resolve the situation, and I've ended up reverting to Emui
Aside from Netflix, I didn't come across any other issues while testing. Unfortunately for me, Netflix was the main reason for getting this tablet in the first place, my old 3rd Gen iPad would have been more than adequate for my needs other wise
In order to get Netflix work, I installed one older versions found on apkmirror. I picked up randomly 6.21.0. I installed also liboemcrypto_disabler (even though I do not know if it was necessary), and in addition of that it is hidden in Magisk. It is working, I do not know how to check the quality, but I guess it is 720p.
Why TWRP needed why not to flash directly from stock recovery...
If you want to install LineageOS, the TWRP is not needed. You flash LineageOS via fastbot. In fact, it is better not to mess with TWRP, officially it is not supported by OpenKirin ROM's.
I also thought so but it's ok I have LineageOS installed with OpenCamera everythink seems to be working fine even LTE is there 16.1 version available ?
and also where can I get stock recovery if I need it, is it available for download anywhere ? or after LineageOS instalation it also installs stock recovery ?
If you want go to stock recovery again, On OpenKirin site there are comprehensive guides, under section Support, about where to find stock EMUI firmware, and how to extract and flash stock recovery image.
I do not think that LineageOS will install stock recovery, if you had TWRP before LineageOS installation, most likely it is still there. You may check it yourself : Vol Down + Power on boot.
I've just tried LineageOS build 6 on my AGS2-W09 and the camera seems to work ok now.
Had to install OpenCamera and set the all permissions, clear storage for this app and on the next run it can finally save the aquired photo.
The 5Ghz WiFi works with no problems (my router selected channel n.60)
As for audio: there is a glitch when device is booting, might want to not wear headphones during a reboot ☺
Haven't tried disabling AudioFX or installing Viper4Android as I am rolling back to stock firmware.
Netflix:
I think I konw why Netflix is not working: I have no IMEI with this OS.
UPDATE: IMEI should not matter on this device as it has no network.
I had tried the Netflix 6.21.0 version mentioned here and it gives me the same "Device failure occurred 501.-1006" error.
Then I've installed Kodi with a Netflix addon and it gives me: "It was not possible to get data from Widevine CryptoSession. Your system is not Widevine certified".
It is pretty clear that the LineageOS 16 build 6 (lineage-16.0-20201019-emui8-gapps.img) has no Widewine libraries installed.
Other than this the OS is very responsive, unfortunately I have to rollback because of this.
I am using this tablet for Netflix and prime on stock emui.
I really want to upgrade to custom ROM but no polished ROM anywhere!
guys how you have managed to pull boot.img from the device?
can anyone guide me through?
I have successfully managed to flash LineageOS latest build on MediaPad T5

Hi everyone,
I'm a new Pixel 3a user and I was quite excited to finally get my hands on a Pixel, but I immediately found out an issue which is too annoying for me to ignore: the device keeps losing Bluetooth connection with other paired devices, even if only connected with one. This is so bad that if I cover my BT headphone with one hand or turn my head putting it in between the two devices, the audio starts to cut-out until it loses the connection.
I've tried everything, from Network Reset and deleting Bluetooth cache to even install different Android OS from Android 9 to 12 while performing factory resets, the problem is always there and is just too frustrating.
Are you aware of a possibile solution, like if there are any custom ROMs addressing this problem? I saw this is such a common issue in this device.
Thanks in advance.
Try changing the Bluetooth options in developer options. You probably know how to get the settings menu option by tapping the build number.
You could try the Gabeldorsche stack or other settings, e.g. different versions.

Thanks for the answer! Unfortunately I already tried a lot of different combinations of those settings without success. This is stressful as hell.

Sorry to hear that. Perhaps it's a HW issue with the antenna?
My bluetooth has worked very well, except paired to one cheap speaker. The volume was low and could not be adjusted. I tinkered with the developer settings lowering some of the protocol versions and the issue was solved.
Today suddenly my wifi stopped working. It automatically switched to 4G. That has happened before so i tried accessing my wifi settings, but when opening wifi settings i saw a black screen and got the message that settings stopped working. I tried rebooting the phone about 5 times. I tried turning on and off planemode. Even combined that with the rebooting but nothing seems to fix it. Other settings are working fine, but they are really really slow. I am planning on doing a factory reset, but maybe there is an easy fix i didn't think about.
It is running on miui 13.0.1.0 global version. I live in the EU. The phone is almost a year old.
I hope somebody can help me with this problem.

If you haven't managed to "manipulate" the software, be it Rom, kernel or install unknown APKs, I think that the factory reset will not help, since it seems to be a hardware problem.
