I had been using a Mytouch 4g running 4.1.1 and the bluetooth audio and phone synced up automatically and flawlessly whenever I got in the car and started the engine. Now with the Nexus 4 I have to turn the bluetooth on and off and uncheck the phone audio and media audio boxes and recheck them until my car's bluetooth will finally see it and connect. Is there a different setting on 4.2.1 that I'm missing that fixes this or is it a 4.2.1 bug?
Anyone else having this pairing issue?
Hi,
Since upgrading to version 4.3 i'm unable to stream audio via bluetooth to my car headset using youtube and other music apps, the only one thats able to stream music to my car stereo is "google music", phone speaker through the car stereo works, and handsfree buttons as well.
The problem occurred only after upgrading from 4.2.2, it's not working on my wife N4 as well, so it's not just my phone having this problem.
using stock 4.3 and also tried CM 10.2 but that didn't help as well,
hope some one can give me a hint on how to fix this.... thanks!
Hi everyone,
I have seen a few threads for other phones, but could not find a solution for the problem I have...
When I get in my car the phones connects to Bluetooth (which is perfectly fine), but it also automatically starts the music player. And that's the problem - I don't use music player (stream music instead) and I don't need it to start the player with only one track there...
I went through each and every setting in the phone menu as well as in Music player menu - I could not find any settings to turn this freakingly annoying feature off...
Have anyone been able to switch this thing off? Any advice is appreciated!
I drive a 2013 Hyundai Sonata (Dimensions Bluetooth Audio system), and I am also trying to connect a Canz 808 Bluetooth Wireless speaker to my LG G2. When I initially pair my phone, everything connects fine. On both my car and the wireless speaker, the media audio does not connect properly after turning off the car or the wireless speaker and leaving the Bluetooth on the LG G2 on, and then either getting back and turning on the car or turning on the wireless speaker. The media audio does not connect properly (no sound) even though the phone shows it's connected. I have to turn off my phone's Bluetooth and then back on for things to connect properly. I found an app called Xperia Z1 Bluetooth media fix on the Google Play Store that seems to fix this problem. I did a factory data reset on my phone and I still have the same problems unless I use the app I mentioned, or I turn off my phone's Bluetooth and then turn it on once the devices I mentioned are already on. It seems when the devices try to connect to the phone, instead of the phone trying to connect to the particular device first, the media audio connection gets messed up. My Nexus 7 tablet, which is also on 4.4.2, connects perfectly each and every time so this seems to be a problem with the LG G2 specifically. Anyone with any ideas why this is happening?

Guys I went to the T-Mobile store today and I brought my Canz 808 wireless speaker with me. I tested it with another LG G2 at the store, and I was surprised when it didn't have any problems whatsoever. It seems my handset has a Bluetooth hardware problem. I already tried a factory data reset, and today I even downgraded to the stock 4.2.2 to see if that would fix it. No luck. They ordered me a replacement handset. It's on backorder so I'm not sure when I'll receive it. I'll test further once I receive the replacement.

After further testing things out with the replacement handset, it seems the replacement handset has the same exact problems. This appears to be a software issue then. I wasn't able to test things out properly with the demo unit at the T-Mobile store since I only tried it a couple of times. I would highly recommend anyone having media audio Bluetooth problems to try the Xperia Z1 Bluetooth media fix app on the Play Store since this little app has solved all my Bluetooth connection problems!

I too have a problem with this speaker (canz 808) though I believe the problem is with the speaker bluetooth, I cant get it to work on my samsung galaxy or my lgg2.. also the speaker no longer makes the initialization sound that it used to make when you turn it on.. I bought this thing less than one month ago.
works with the audio cable.
Hi all,
It seems as if this is one of those eternal questions that nobody can answer completely. I just cant get the music player (either LG Music player or Google play music) to stop autoplaying when i connect to the bluetooth in my car. I called Verizon and LG and neither of them have a solution. I figured this forum was the next good bet to either have a solution or a workaround. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated for this annoyance.
Thanks!
I used greenify's "cut off" feature and that seems to have worked. I haven't noticed any side effects yet but I don't use the music player that much
