[Q] Reset Bluetooth settings? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a problem setting my S4 to autoconnect with my car bluetooth automatically. When I switch ON bluetooth I need the car to connect instantly, but it doesn't happen. Until I go to bluetooth settings and select the already paired device it doesn't start.
I've read that I need to clear the memory of the car and of the phone and start again. I've done that with the car's bluetooth, but I'm not able to do it with the phone. Do you know what do I have to do?
I'm root, by the way, so I can delete some folder or file if it's necessary.
Thank you

Bluetooth 'discoverable' always on?

Hi all,
Searched under 'bluetooth' with no obvious joy.
When I turn on bluetooth I have to manually make sure that the device is discoverable every time if I want to receive via bluetooth. Is it posible to make the device 'discoverable' automatically when I simply turn bluetooth on?
Thanks.
Matt
Well I'm surprised at you all! lol.
Sorry guys, been away (pc problems!! still ongoing but at least now I can connect to www) so not been watching the site.
Anyone any ideas on this?
Matt
I think you have to tick "receive incoming beams" under connections

All I did was go into bluetooth settings, make discoverable, and everytime I power on my BT Headset, it automatically connects.

Is beam receive switched off? This has been a very common problem with WM5 users before I've published the fix to it.

It should connect every time you power it up - even without your PDA being discoverable.
Hello!
Unfortunatley ihave the same issue when i'm connecting using Stereo BT Nokia BH-501. The problem is that each time after the BT is switched off and then switched on i need to go to Bluetooth settings and make an update for it and save. Only ofter these steps it reconnects to Hermes (HTC TyTN) and starting to play sounds and music through BT
Is it possible to make it fully reconnect automatically after it is switched on and how?
Thanks!
VJVolubilis can force you into discoverable mode from a shortcut, so you can drop that into your startup folder, but it's not advisable to keep yourself discoverable unless required.

Hey VJ
I just tried that... I made a shortcut with the -bluediscoveron paramenter and removed the -status parameter. I dropped it in my Windows\Startup folder.
It doesn't seem to be working, When I turn on my BT, Dicoverable Mode is still OFF. However after, I enable my BT and then click on the shortcut with -bludiscoveron parameter, it works.
Is there anyway to have Discoverable Mode on even after I turn off my BT and then on again?

Possible to block bluetooth unit from connecting?

So i once paired my phone with my car stereo handsfree, but since it was a $100 stereo, the handsfree didn't work correctly. So i don't want to use it anymore. But the stupid stereo have no way to turn off bluetooth.
I tried deleting the stereo from paired devices, and set my phone bluetooth to "hidden" - but that stupid stereo still finds me, and a message about "bla bla wants to connect" pops up everytime i get into my car.
I also tried disconneting power from my stereo, and use the reset switch on it, which reset all settings on it - but IT STILL FINDS MY PHONE!
Anyone have any suggestions on what to do? At the end of the day, i have like 10 notifications on my phone i have to go through and click "No" on...
On the Wizard did you ...?
1) Push the Comm mgr tab
2) Click on settings
3) BlueTooth Settings
4) Mode: UN-check the box "Make this device discoverable to other devices"
5) click OK.
If you didn't do that, try it.
Then go to B/T settings again and pick devices, and remove the device giving you trouble.
That SHOULD do it.
as mentioned i have already made it undiscoverable for other devices. But it still tries to connect to me...

Bluetooth problem!

Hi, I was able to pair my x1 to my pioneer headunit in my car and get the a2dp to work, but say when I leave the car and it d/c as it should, it does not automatically reconnect when i start the car again like it should, I have to manually go into the settings and set wireless stereo again. Anybody know a solution to this? I am used to my old phone just automatically connecting everytime I start the car. Phone is visible also.
Hi, can I ask how you get your pioneer unit to work with X1? I've tried pairing my Pioneer unit to my X1 and it doesn't connect. Btw, I want to use my unit for handsfree calling. Thanks.

[Q] How to disable automatic start of music when connected to BT

Everytime My Galaxy S5 (G900F) is connected to my inbuilt BT handsfree in my car (Skoda Octavia) music player is turned on automatically and it starts to play music. (I cannot hear music because car audio has selected Radio mode not BT audio)
Do you know how to disable it please?
It is not possible to disable it in settings of BT, Music Player, Car Mode, Sounds. I dont want to disable BT audio at all, because I sometimes use it.
Thanks
Michal
This maybe something to do with your car kit or settings? I don't have that problem when connecting to my factory fitted car kit.
Try the "places" setting in "location settings" and use the BT connection to tell the phone you are in the car.
Places were already done - Car via BT connection as you suggested. Not solved

Sorry for my poor english, once connected go to bluetooth settings and select the option of your connected car (the gear symbol on the right) once there uncheck the multimedia option.
No problem, but I know about this option. As I wrote "I dont want to disable BT audio" because I sometimes use it There must be another way to disable it
