Bluetooth problems? Anyone else having them? - Gen8 General

I was wondering if anyone else is having issues with bluetooth on their Archos 101. I can't tell if perhaps my hardware is flaky, or if its a software issue.
Basically, bluetooth seems to work sporadically. Sometimes it pairs like it should, other times it is a fight just to get it to pair with my phone, laptop or bluetooth keyboard. Often times I have to reboot just to get it to pair and it seems to really struggle if both bluetooth AND wifi are enabled.
I'm running the stock current ROM and outside of the android market APK and some basic apps, I haven't done anything wacky or weird to it.
I guess I'm just looking for some validation and/or confirmation and/or possible fixes if any.

Sorry, i have experienced no issues with bluetooth apart from forgetting to switch it on

I have had some issues as well. Paired a set of Motorola S9 bluetooth stereo headphones. They pair and connect fine, but the audio is choppy. It will sound fine for 15-20 seconds and then it will skip, go silent, bring back audio, etc. Tried playing same audio through unit speakers and no problems. I also have an Archos 70 tablet and have no problems with the same headset. Both have been updated with the Froy 2.2. Starting to think it might be a hardware issue with the 101. Anyone have any other thoughts?

Never had it working
I always get paired but not connected. Never have been able to get it to work.

The same problem. Pair, but not connect!

I've never found problem about bluetooth (Archos 101 - firmware version 2.1.08)
Pair & connect with DELL BH200 (Bluetooth Headset) - work fine.
Pair & connect with DELL BT Travel Mouse - work fine.

i'm getting major issues on my new replacement 101. did you ever sort your issues? i'm using latest fw.
its really hit or miss (mostly miss) whether it actually see's any BT devices when it scans. yet wifi works fine 100%

I experiment something very similar with my 101, this both on standard Android and Urukdroid 0.7 or 1.0 :
- very difficult (multiple tries have to be done) to get successfull peering.
- with BT enabled phones
- with BT GPS (G-Sat BT-368i, wich is given in forums to work well on our gen8 devices)
- for the GPS (which is the BT device that interest me) : impossible to have it working directly from GoogleMap, I got some success with "Bluetooth Gps Provider" appli from Market). This device is never shown as connected from the BT Parameters.
Could it be a hardware problem, that is do I have to return the tablet to archos ?
Thanks for your experience feeling about the fiability of the BT on 101 tablet.

It generally works fine for me, but a couple days ago it got stuck, and it would not allow to send me files to other devices until I rebooted the Archos. The same day I was also using bluetooth headphones and the wifi network together, and I had audio stutter problems. It seems that wifi has a negative effect over bluetooth stability.

It works for me... though

Bluetooth is not working on my Archos 101.
When I try "scan for devices" it shows 1 or 2 devices, while my HTC HD2 shows about 5. When I click again on "scan for devices" - sometimes it is howing different device, sometime shows bloothooth adress only.
Evan my HTC can see Archos, it cannot pair with it. Archos never see my HTC.
Zalek

Same here
I can pair with my phone (htc desire hd) but cant connect.
I need my phone connected for gps.
Nobody has a solution ?

No solution ?
Thanks

BT has some issues for me too with an A43.
BT+wifi means i either can't get a proper internet connection, or BT devices disconnect.
quite annoying, because i want to be able to use my BT mouse with the internet browser.
and my jabra halo headset connects in dumb mode (no media/volume controls) most of the time.
which is annoying, because it means my headset is stuck on the volume i last used.

Hi Lara and other fellows! For me, after all sort of tries, the solution comes with full reinitialization. Plug the unit to AC outlet, backup all your data, go to settings, repair and formatting and full reini. It seems that when we update firmware the things go a little crazy with the bt side. Good luck!

Think I've sorted out bluetooth problems
I also have had real problems with the bluetooth on Archos 101 - pairing but not connecting, causing "Location & Security" to crash when I attempted to open it (in settings). I updated the firmware to 2.4.19 and then rebooted - still the same problems, so I did a full initialization and hey presto all problems seem to have vanished ! A pain because I've now got to re-download all the apps I had before but at least the tablet is working as it is supposed to.
Hope this helps others.

Archos 101 Bluetooth Problem - Known issue?
I'm having the same problems. I contacted Archos support and they told me to do a full reinitialization. This did not resolve the issue.
When scanning for bluetooth devices, nothing shows up until the 5th or so attempt.
The mac address of the discovered device is shown instead of the device name.
When attempting to connect it fails several times, then it pairs but says "paired but not connected."
When I finally connect the audio stutters. It's extremely choppy... useless.
If the bluetooth is left on, the 101 will eventually freeze when the screen sleeps and cannot be woken up by pressing the power button. The green light stays on when this happens. Pressing the button a few times or holding it in reboots the 101.
After reading all the posts I've come to the conclusion that Archos likely knows about this issue.
Archos, if you're reading this, for the sake of your customers, please admit this is a known issue and let us know if it's fixable and when a possible fix may be available.
I encourage everyone to open a ticket with Archos support.
If you purchased your 101 used and it's been registered by the previous owner, you can register it and the registration will be instantly transferred to you.
Create a support account at archos.com
After you create an account you can add products to your account and submit tickets for them.
Firmware: 2.4.81
Board ver: A101IT-V5
OMAP ver: ES1.2
Boot ver: Unknown / 4.04.000000
My bluetooth device: Jensen WTB210. Works fine with several other android devices.

8525 Bluetooth disconnects with headset mid-call

Hi All,
I have been reading a lot of messages on both 8525 and 8125 trying to isolate the issue and there doesn't seem to be a straight asnwer anywhere and hence I am trying to get the attention of the users here...
I have a pioneer navigation system with a bluetooth built-in. My previous phone (blackberry) and my wife's treo650 both stay connected with car's bluetooth when on call (never a disconnect). But my new 8525 gets disconnected mid-call (usually after 2 to 5mins, but have also seen a disconnect within 1min). That is, it does pair with the car kit and when there is no call going on, the bluetooth connection never dies. This disconnect only happens mid-call, almost all the times.
I have the latest ROM (1,34.502...., radio: 1.16), got the phone about 2 weeks ago from Amazon.com. Called cingular and they say could be faulty phone and I have searched other forums like audi message board where their car kits are also having the same disconnect problem with 8525, so I doubt this is a single phone issue.
I have taken the 'band' hack and forced the phone to be in either GSM or WCDMA mode and in either modes, the phone still exhibits the same problem (there might not be any connection between the two at all, bluetooth with GSM/WCDMA, but thought there might be some weird connection...but not the case thankfully).
I read somewhere about some bluetooth tweaks on 8125, but never found what those were. I need some help here otherwise I am going to return the 8525 and stay away from it. I need the bluetooth to work efficiently.
thanks for all your help

please help
I really need some help, clue or direction on solving or at least isolating this bluetooth issue. I love the 8525 but if I cannot fix this bluetooth mid-call disconnect issue, I will unfortunately have to return, which I don't want.
What headsets the 8525 works fine with (no drops mid-call)? May be that is a starting point.
Please also give me some links to 8125 tweaks that some talked about? pof/other moderators/anyone?
thanks a lot in advance!!

I have an Motorola H700, and every once in a while it will disconnect, looking at the phone after that, BT is turned off, turn it back on and it works again...
There are problems with the hardware and the API used to access it, good phone, but I don't think it was ready for the market yet when they released it. It is likely to be corrected in the next ROM release, last I heard from Cingular is mid 2007, but by the way things go, prolly around late 07/early 08.
I'm having similar issues with the BT headset I use, which is a Samsung WEP150. It'll drop midcall to the handset. I'll look and BT is turned off.
The only remote correllation I've found is that it seems to occur when I've received a new email or something a la ActiveStink.. And I haven't really been able to confirm that... But I have definitely noticed it happening then though.
my 8525 does this as well with my factory BT in my 05 Acura TL. Kind of frustrating, have not been able to figure it out yet.
Problems w/ Audi BT as well
Same issues with my Audi Q7 BT. I have seen posts in this and other forums blaming the MS bluetooth stack.
My 8525 worked flawlessly with my Garmin NUVI 660, never disconnected or failed to connect automatically. This is frustrating.
8525 Fix
I had the same problem with the 8525 and my Pioneer Avic-Z1 bluetooth kit.
I hacked the registry to force the bluetooth radio to stay ON, rather than going into sleep mode. This seems to have fixed the problem (although with limited testing at this point).
My calls would consistently disconnect with 2-4 minutes. After the hack, I've had 2 45-minute+ conversations with no trouble.
Here's the fix... install a registry editor (like PHMedit), and add a DWORD here:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State\ Suspend
Add a DWORD called btl1: (note the colon, the colon must be there), with a DWORD value of 2.
Good luck!
My Q7 as well i took the advice of wolfgram and did this to my phone i will let you know how it works it would be a shame to give up this phone but it is really useless if this feature does not work right.
Well this is what i did i did what wolfgram said and it still cut out but not as much so i took the checks off in the advance power mode and never let the phone go to sleep and it works all the time. HTC needs to upgrade thier bluetooth setting not to go to sleep. It must stay active at all times MY phone book and all other info posted into my Q7 with no issues at all and it even sees the bluetooth b4 the MMI system in the car Boots up..
Lance
Resolution I think
I turned off 'Making device discoverable to other devices' and it seems to have solved this problem, I am using the phone with a parrot kit and it kept disconnecting now it works all the time.
Treo 750 doesn't have this problem
Well, hopefully you owners of Hermes have figured out the fix. I had to return it and now got the Treo 750 and can gladly say the problem is not there. The treo 750 has the v1.2, but I guess following the replies here, that possibly Palm fixed the problem by keeping the BT radio on at all times.
In any case, here is the post I wrote in avic411.com forum - if you want to see any follow up responses by other owners..

Bluetooth cut out
I am having the problem too with the garmin Nuvi and the Tytn - which is ineresting seeing as how one poster had no problem with the Garmin device. Here is something else that is interesting - I did not have the problem when I had the HTC 1.18 Rom installed. After I flashed the HTC 1.35 Rom, the problem began. I have already tried upgrading my firmware on the Nuvi - that did not help. I also use a Nokia 800 bluetooth headset - and that never cuts out with either ROM. I will try turning off the bluetooth discovery first. If that does not work, will try editing the registry. Keep you posted.
Turning off bluetooth discovery did not work.

Hey guys, has anybody found a solution for the auto turning off of the BT in suspend mode? its gettin really annoying

Bluetooth not staying on - same problem as Tracy and Matt Blog

My Xperia X1 is great. The keyboard is a refreshing change from the orbit 2/polaris.
Problem - Bluetooth does not stay switched on. This is most apparent when using my Parrot carkit because it does not automatically connect due to the bluetooth being switched off. I have looked through the settings to no avail. Any suggestions? Anyone else with similar problem?
Also the screen switches itself off at such short intervals - possibly to help battery life but it makes reading web pages frustrating at times.
The screen switching off can be changed or turned off in the phone settings.
Thanks for that. The bluetooth issue is real although it may only be on the branded uk ROMs. Anyone else with a similar problem - when I click bluetooth on it stays but as soon as you open up settings or programs the icon disappears (switches itself off). Any bright ideas?
Bluetooth just turns off...
I have the same problem.
The Bluetooth just turns off.
Its a real problem, and nothing i can find either talks about it... or in any setting.
Anyone know of a fix?
My friend at SE Sweden told me that a new FW will fix this. They know about the problem and are working on it.
RTFM - switch bluetooth on + soft reset device = bluetooth stays on.
Works for me

This does not fix the issue. Soft reset after enabling.
Again... I contacted SE... and was told.. "We are aware of this and it has been passed to developers to create a patch in the form of a CAB/flash that will become available on the SE website under support."
So... timescales... she said.. it won't be weeks as this is a new phone and any issues are taking priority.
Sit and wait... if you need it and use BT constant... Hold fire on buying one...

What works for me is switching off the wifi - my bluetooth has stayed on every since.
I installed the Touch HD TF3D and hey presto.. WIFI and Bluetooth work as wanted with no probs.
So... What does this package do?
any Bluetooth settings or power?
Hello,
i have a german rom ( 1.02.932.3 ) and i have the bluetooth issue too.
daniel
I think this is just a small bug in the SE BT stack. SE phones have an option to turn on BT for 10 minutes or so, maybe this setting was used in the first roms. I hope SE will fix this.
I've got a 02 SE X1 just out, I have the same issue, I can connect to my Parrot 3200and it works fine, get back in to my car sometime later and BT will not connect, 1st I tried switching off the phone, then resets, and finally which works, switching off the BT and back on again (although BT still shows as being on in Connection manager), after that I can finally get a BT connection to the car kit,
Is anyone getting the same problem ?? and is there a patch yet as its really frustrating to do this every other time,
Thanks Mark
Hi Mark I have a Parrot Bluetooth carkit (3200 the same as you). It is working and syncing beautifully with the X1i just as it did with my previous WM devices.
I dont go through the stages you mentioned anymore but bluetooth only stays on if the wifi is kept off.
Hope you get yours sorted.

Wifi is always off ? I've emailed SE tech support so it will be interesting to see what they say
Does anyone have a problem with the HBH-DS980 bluetooth headset?
On my X1, it only shows Wireless Headset and Hands-Free services. What about A2DP and AVRCP?
I never use wifi, but I still get this problem pretty regularly. It's the only thing keeping me from using the phone.
Also, has anyone else noticed a bug where the email signature you set will not be retained after a soft reset? It always reverts back to the stock Xperia sig.
I have a Xperia uk version and had the same experience, bt went off randomly. I installed Touch flo 3d and now works fine. Switching on and off WiFi has no influence on bt in my case. Also tried bt on + soft reset and still bt went off sometimes.
i have same problem
i have the same problem with the bluetooth, i cannot connect to my car kit (which is SE also by the way!). After contacting SE i was told to wait for the new firmware coming out on the site... this is so frustrating!! how can such an expensive phone have this silly problem??

Anyone else having bluetooth connection problems?

I've had my Z Force for about a week and a half. At first, everything was fine, but now, BT won't automatically connect to all of the trusted devices. It automatically connects to my BT speaker at work, but not the one at home or my Ford Sync.
I'd appreciate any thoughts.
Having an issue with it dropping the connection when paired with the LG Tone Platinum HBS-1100.
I have mine since Tues. Connected to 2014 Honda and Moto 360 and Moto sd 11 headphones. No issues I have noticed, especially in the car. It connects quicker and continues pandora quicker than any phone I have used previously with the car (LG G2, LG G3, Turbo 2). I will soon test with a Ford Sync 3 system, a vizio soundbar, and an ECOXGEAR speaker, and some ihome cheap headphones. Hopefully all goes well.
09 Ford with sync. Having issues as well. Don't have trusted devices set up because of the fingerprint reader, but I do have issues with automatically connecting, especially if I leave the source on Bluetooth audio when I turn the truck off. If I hit the phone button, it will usually reconnect. Don't have any issue with my moto 360 though.
I think it's a Ford sync problem. I have a 2015 fusion. Mine connects but it's delayed. Unfortunately the automotive radios are only designed for specific bt protocols. This is a problem with many car systems. My wife has the same problem with Dodge uconnect and the g5.

But mine worked fine for the first week or 2. It also is a problem with my BT speaker.
Bluetooth Connection
The same thing was happening in my Subaru, so I went into the voice settings of the moto actions app. Once there, choose "Talk to Me" and then touch more options. Once I selected the "audio troubleshooting" button, my car bluetooth problems went away instantly. Maybe something to try if you haven't?
Yeah Ford doesn't have any options like that.
So, the simple fix was to go empty the Bluetooth Share cache. Seems like a simple idea, but I had never needed to do this on any other phone.
I'd had mine a while and one day I noticed my BT wouldn't connect to my speaker at work. So I tested it on all my devices and my Bluetooth doesn't work at all. It will not find any device at all. Yes I've made sure they're all on sync, search, find, whatever the option is. I've cleared cache, tried to dig deeper to find that there are no legitimate settings or options menus, no way to troubleshoot the issue. I even thought an update would fix it as I thought it had updated just before I noticed it not working. Well it's updated again and nope. Still no Bluetooth. I've given up. And to beat all, no damn headphone jack so I gotta remember to carry around my adapter to use an aux cord.
On Bluetooth people can hear me but I cannot hear them.
I have had my Moto Z force for a while now, and all of the sudden when I connect to any Bluetooth device I cannot hear anything when it comes to phone calls. All media works, and people can hear me. I have factory reset the phone to see if this fixes it... But it did not work. Anyone else have an idea or experience this issue?
Hi, I have the same problem, suddenly after upgrading to nougat, I can not detect the wi fi and bluetooth.

I have the same problem too 3 days ago. It stopped working randomly. I was running Nougat with December security patch. Tried hard resetting and nothing. Now I updated to the January security patch and I still have the same problem, even after doing another hard reset. Could this be a kernel glitch or a driver issue? Bluetooth says it's on but it won't find any device and I can't pair any device to it. I hope Motorola is looking to fix this because I am from Europe and can't send the device to warranty in the US .

You can send it out, you just need a forwarding US address... You can do this if you do it with a middle-man https://www.shipito.com/ for example. might cost a little more for shipping, but it's an option that you have at least!

Thank you so much! I'll send it to warranty in the end. Moto is going to completely replace it. I'll have a Z Play to play around with meanwhile and then I'll see wich one of the 2 I'll keep.
My Moto Z has a similar issue. I got my first unit last summer and had to return/replace it because the charger melted to the phone (but that's another story). With my new phone, I constantly have trouble connecting to BT. I can almost always connect eventually, but it's NEVER on the first try. I usually have to toggle BT off and on, force stop BT, or restart my phone. So my Bluetooth isn't quite 100% useless, but it's a huge inconvenience any time I need to connect to anything.
Also fyi this is not related to the Ford issue--I'm connecting to headphones and speakers.
Bluetooth on G5
I can't connect to the handsfree on Mitsubishi Mirage
I'm having the same issue. All Bluetooth devices just quit. Headphones, Watch, Car adapter. Everything. I've reset my phone and nothing. Anyone had any success with any fix?
[Update] I think there may be something up because I mentioned it to the customer rep and they immediately said I need to send it in.

Bluetooth issues

I have 3 main devices that I pair to my phone via bluetooth: watch/lg tone/car
The watch stays paired with no issues, but the watch is having issues swapping from the lg tones to the car and vice versa.
Anyone found a remedy for this?
As of now, I have to go into the bluetooth settings of the one I don't want to use and deselect media/phone, then go to the other and select media/phone. And even sometimes this takes multiple times to work.
My previous phone (gs7) had no issues swapping from the two.
Hi,
Did you get a solution ? I face the same problem and can't find any solution...
Just to clarify, when you are in your car and want to connect to it, the headphones are turned off, correct?
Having similar issues... Every time I try to connect to my car (stock Subaru WRX), I have to manually connect and it takes several attempts before it connects. Once it connects it usually doesn't drop though. Very frustrating...

It's not in my car but with the bluetooth device of my motorcycle helmet. The reference is ncom bluetooth kit 3. I have to connect it manually and it takes several attempts before it connects. Sometimes it doesn't connect at all....
I have 2 headset Plantronics Backbeat Pro and Plantronics Backbeat Fit. They both work flawlessly
My Huawei Watch also works.
But my Nokia 616 Car kit wont connect at all.
And my motorcycle hemlet bluetooth kit, Cardo scala rider PACKTALK, connects, but the audio is slowed down to about 80 percent?
Same thing here.
I have been facing problems with a Sony SBH52 Headset and with my Opel Corsa E, stock infotainment system.
It gives me a hard time connecting but when it does it's stable.
I had the same with my gen 1 Moto 360 but after a factory reset to the watch and a reboot it's stable.

Ahem, I seem to be unable to find bluetooth in my app settings. Can you please give me a hint?
It's been driving me crazy these days with my SBH-52 and I want to try this too.
Thanks!
P.S.
I'll also give it a shot with a plantronics pro headset I have to see if it does the same.
Bluetooth profiles implementations, even though they passed certification, are not always made equal! So don't end up pulling your hair if a certain BT device doesn't play nice with another.
Just as an example... Head Unit X had big issues with the initial contacts sync, right after pairing with Samsung phones (already known to sometimes play around some other standards). It would only work after several reconnects. After several weeks of debugging (poor development guys) and reproduction test (poor testing guys) it was concluded that it is a phone issue caused by some wrong timing delays in the process of exchanging information between the HU and the phone. Samsung was informed and the ticket was internally closed.
I have similar problem with Bluetooth Earbuds. Phone simple doesn't "see" the Earbuds. But strange - it can see other Bluetooth devices and other devices can see Earbuds.
I'm sure this is a OnePlus 5 software problem.
Version OxygenOS 4.5.10
i have somhow issue as urs, i have Bluetooth pad lock and android watch, it sometimes connected and sometimes not, i do believe its software issue, im on 4.5.11
Yes, it is strange. After some restarts and on/offs connection suddenly appears

Bluetooth problem

Hello to everyone.
From when i bought it the op8pro has some problem with the bluetooth. Is like if the device can connect to one device only. I have a fossil 5 gen, one fiesta mk8 with android auto and the bluetooth headset but is like if the bluetooth has some problem to connect to two or one devices. For example every time my car doesnt connect to the phone automatically and today when i was to the gym my headset doesnt connect automatically too. My previous note 10 pro was able to connect without any problem... Someone has some problem with the bluetooth? Thanks
I have another problem. Every time that i enter in my car the device is connect to android auto but if i want to play an audio from whatsapp i have to tap a lot of time on the play botton.!!!???why
I see this same issue, I'd say 80-90% of the time (the other 10-20%, it "just works", which is truly odd, given the protocol).
For example, I use some bone-conducting open-air headphones, while cycling (long time road cyclist), and sometimes I want to connect my Garmin Edge 1030, to download a route, when I'm out.
Good luck, even upon returning, I'm often sitting in the garage, trying 20+ times (after shutting my headphones off, even), to try and download my ride-data, for the day. Sometimes it requires rebooting both devices, flushing the Bluetooth app-cache, and the Garmin app-cache, and then it'll work, that's perhaps 40% of the time.
For another 40%, it will NOT connect, what-so-ever, across multiple reboots and app-cache flushes, period (I tend to give up at around the 20+ attempt mark, depending).
The last 20%, it works, perfectly, as you'd expect, and as my OP7 Pro did, I can't recall a single BT connectivity issue, with it, either solo (Garmin) or with headphones concurrently.
I've filed bugs with OP (along with NUMEROUS other radio bugs, like the fact you can't connect to a 5G-mobile signal, if you're connected to a WiFi signal, on the INO2025 model, bug filed, trace-logs submitted, including pointing out log-lines where the radio(s) fail).
Unfortunately, with the Bluetooth issues, it will not repro, if I use the OP debug-mode, which is how they want to receive logs (and how I've submitted many bugs, previously), so I'm at a loss, short of finding a hardware Bluetooth debug module (I used to work on h/w and s/w boundary driver stuff, so I've used a h/w BT debugger before, but not for some years, and have no access to one, currently).
OP seems to just ignore the bugs, at that point, when I can't provide the logs, they pretty much abandon the bug-thread, so I'm not sure how they're going to get some of these resolved (I've noted that the debug-mode seems to introduce some latency, or similar, that prevents repro, no response to that, what-so-ever).
I have reset the radio-stack, a couple of times, and did one full factory-reset (shortly after getting the phone, about 1 month back now), with no real change in results, for reference.
I feel like I'm back in the late-90's, when Bluetooth was super-flaky. on most devices, in the 1.x and 2.x days.
Not exactly a "flagship phone experience", or even a decent budget phone Bluetooth experience, for this day and age...
I'm open to ideas on how to debug further, I'm really more of a storage and display guy, and memory-management, in terms of the bulk of my dev/debug skills, communication protocols were something I did on the fringe, of sorts, when they overlapped, or similar.
