Bluetooth connectivity problem - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hey guys. I'm hoping one of you can help me. I'm having issues getting my Bluetooth to work. I'm running SHOstock in the stock slot on safe strap. I never had a problem with the phone connecting to my headset using my old stock ROM. However, it has never been able to connect while running SHOstock or Google play edition ROMs. My phone will see the headset but when I try to pair it says incorrect pin or password,but it doesn't ever give me an option to enter a new one. Any help is greatly appreciated as this is a feature I really need.

[Q] Trouble With Bluetooth Cyanogen 6.1.2 RC2 on Mytouch 4G

***I am a n00b***
I have searched cyanogens forums as well as xda and google and have not found the answer to my situation. I am hoping that anyone can lead me to the answer.
Basically, I have already rooted my Mytouch 4G and flashed Cyanogen 6.1.2-RC2 onto it, successfully and on the first try. I went around installing fonts and different themes even android market 2.2.7 all this works like a charm.
I have only come across one issue that I have not been able to find the answer for on any forum and I have been looking all day. When I try to pair my phone with my bluetooth, it won't find anything after scanning. There were only 2 times out of around 50 times that I got my bluetooth headset to show up, when I did, it said "cannot establish communication to jabra so-and-so". What I would like to know, I read that it has to do with the firmware or something. And browsing around, people said that it was fixed with a nightly build. I attempted to extract a .bin file but later found out it was only for the G1. I don't understand that, can anyone help me out? either explain what to do or do I have to wait for an update? Thank you so much!!
It may be a communication error with the Jabra..... I have a Platronics 320, and mine works perfect with no problem.. would you be able to try with another headset?... I have the same rom as you...

I have a jawbone...i will try that one, ive been reading more and more about this, i thought there would be a patch out or something to fix it but i'll try my other bluetooth...err...blueteeth lol. Thanks for responding back!
No problem... Let me know if it works with the Jawbone... I am pretty interested to see if that is the issue
It's not the ROM. Check your earpiece pairing instructions. Spent so much time, reflashed, etc. _ pairing a Jabra but I was using a Samsung pairing procedure.
If we have same Jabras, turn it off then press power continuously until it shows on bluetooth scan, then pair.

Yeah I will... its so strange because there are times I'm trying to pair and the closest I ever got was it said incorrect pin or passkey...which as I know from selling phones at tmobile for almost 4 years is 0000. but the problem is, there's no where to put in the passkey. I tried menu long pressing and nothing..btw I'm using a jabra stone 2 just got it for christmas so I'm sad if I can't get it to work. Thanks for all the support

rooted and flashed
w/ cyanogen 6.1.2 RC2
So it worked....putting the headset in pairing mode was hard to figure out without instructions....I had to hold the bluetooth button down for like 40 seconds

Bluetooth not working on Stock rooted Gingerbread

On stock rooted Gingerbread ROM, I am not able to connect to any of my devices via Bluetooth. It turns on OK and it says it is scanning, but it will not connect to any of my bluetooth devices. It worked on Froyo before. Rebooted phone and still the same issue. Short of doing a full wipe and reinstall, anyone else have any suggestions on how to fix it?
i had the same issue before wiyh ny bt headset...after switching to a diff rom, my headset wouldnt even show in the scanned devices...turns out i had to re "pair" the headset by deleting what it had stored before...i've had to do this everytime i switch roms...hope this helps...

How do you do this delete on a headset? I'll give it a shot. Otherwise everything else on stock GB works great.
on the headset, i just had to reset it to factory setting, as if u are pairing it for the first time...on my headset, i had to hold down power button for about 10 secs until i had a blinking light...but diff brand might have a diff way of resetting...what devices are u trying to connect?

a Motorola Bluetooth hands free headset
As the post above said, need to put the headset/device in pair mode.

Still wouldn't pair with my bluetooth.
Just to make sure my bluetooth headset was not broken, I was able to pair it with my HP Touchpad (it was never paired on my Touchpad before and it paired and connected just fine right away).
I then Odined EC05 stock rom and tried to pair while in EC05, no go either.
It did the autoupdate to EI22 and tried again to pair and no go again either.
I'm thinking the Bluetooth hardware may be broken? Take it to a Sprint Tech Store and have them check it out? Since my phone is now completely stock and unrooted, maybe I should hit the Sprint Tech store and have them check it out.
Sounds like a good idea, they should have some headsets laying around they can try to pair it to.

Went to the Sprint store this afternoon. Techs looked at it and they determined the radio is bad. They gave me a new Epic. Now it's off to puting back CWM and restoring my nandroid backup.
On a side note, while waiting, the store must have sold at least 8 iPhone 4S's during my wait, while I did not see any non iPhone sold during that timeframe. I pity those people.

Bluetooth not connectig automatically to the car kit

Hi guys,
I have a very strange problem with my beloved note. After I get in the car and drive off I remember that I have to turn bluetooth on so it can connect to the hands free system. The thing is that it doesn't connect automatically, I have to go into the settings and tap the BT name in order to connect it. If on the other hand if I have BT already enabled on the phone before starting the car, it conmects automatically. With the first version of GB the Note had in November I didn't have this issue, but after the first update it started not to work. Now I am on official unrooted ICS 4.0.3. Never had this problem with any other phone.... Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

You can try Automatic Bluetooth Toggle PRO (I think there is trial version on Google Play). I don't know if it will help you. If not then I'm sorry you will probably have to go back to GB. I'm still on GB as I was also having issues with bluetooth on stock ICS (CM9-based ROMs worked well though).
Thanks a lot. GB had the same annoying problem though :-(... so it's not that....

Hi,
Did you allow the pairing automatically between the devices?
When you pair at installation, it isn't permanently (= automatic) yet. When you get in your car and pair for a second time, normally your phone asks you if you allow your hands free system to access your phone; at that moment you have to tick "don't ask me again" and "yes" for automatic paring.
You might want to disassociate the two and try a new setup (pairing).
To disassociate, stop the system in your car (that cuts the BT connection between the two), disassociate on the phone (push and hold your hands free system in the BT section of the phone and chose disassociate), reboot your phone (so it forgets your cars BT system) and start pairing all over again.
I would provoke the second connection so you get the "automatic" question to make it work.
Good luck :good:
I have the same problem with the original ICS rom.
Flashing a custom ICS rom fixes this problem.
I tried kingdroid (worked ok)
I tried Cyanogen (phone ok, no media audio over BT but connection OK).
I had a similar problem after upgrade with stock ICS through software update. I couldn't pair Note with Mercedes bluetooth. Galaxy Note recognized Mercedes BT & vice versa, but connection was impossible. I read every forum on internet but no help. Everybody was blaming Samsung and ICS. Some suggested resseting Note to factory default, others downloading bluetooth app etc.
Until...I finally figured out that something was confusing my car's BT, so I resseted car system, and the problem was solved.

These is a twist with "old" BT systems and ICS: Old BT systems want you to insert a pin code, ICS wants you to to confirm a code that the BT system sends and that ICS shows on the screen.
It's obvious that that ICS on an old system can be a hassle.
A work around is to put the car in discover mode (so it shows the pin code) and then send a contact (or a picture) from the phone to the car system. As the car replies, your phone will show the possibility to insert the PIN Code.
After that your system should work.
At second connection make the pairing automatic (as I described above) and you're happy.
(This is not my discovery, I found this solution on the SE XPeria Ray forum as I had problems with my wifes phone )
Thaks a lot. I will try as soon as I get the chance and will let you guys know.

So with the workaround mentioned above - it doesn't work. When turning on bt on the phone it won't automatically connect to the car.

Try A2DP Volume on the market.
I have the same problem as you. I used a leaked ics rom on my galaxy s2 and also had the same problem we now have on our ics galaxy notes. My car's head unit is a 3 year old eclipse cd5030. For the last month ive just been manually pairing it every time. PITA. Ill try the workaround suggested earlier in this thread and let you know. Otherwise i think cyanogen mod rom may work.

I had similar issues with Parrot 9200 kit in my car. Paired automatically under GB but on stock ICS wouldn't pair unprompted. Sometimes it would but only after minutes.
I'm on Paranoid Android 0.4 now which is CM9 based. It's better but often still slow to pair unprompted. Main improvement for me is that the phone doesn't carry on playing music through its own speaker, like it did on stock ICS, when I turn off the engine.
There is an app on the market called "Auto Connect 2.0", but it is only available for ICS and above Android versions

i have same problem with my note, but with my Galaxy S1 works fine, when i upgrade the android to 4.0.4 solves the problem.

Issues with bluetooth

Hey guys, been a while. I'm having some trouble with this app I'm trying to use with my continuum.
Link to app
Every time I try to connect to my GNex it tells me there was a connection error. I know it has to be an issue with my continuum because my Archos 70 pairs and works fine with my GNex. Any ideas? I was on EG04 and it wasn't working so I jumped back down to EC09 and it's still not working. Completely stock on both aside from root on EG04.
I have only been successful connecting bluetooth headsets have not ever had much success using bluetooth data transfer or as a wireless controller such as your application.
Old samsung touchwiz roms are missing something important in the bt stack... So functionality is extremely basic, unfortunately xP

[Android][BT] Bluetooth Hardware Spoofing

Hey guys, Dan here
So here's my setup. I've got a Turtle Beach PX4 Headset, PlayStation 3, and my Windows 8.0 Desktop PC (w/ Bluetooth of course) I was wondering if it was possible to spoof a Bluetooth microphone on my phone somehow to show up so I can onnect it to my PS3 to use as a Bluetooth mic.
Is this possible currently? Through use of soft mods or apps?
I'd really like to know if this is possible and if so, how I can achieve it.
Thanks Guys!

Can mods move this to the right section? Sorry for bumping, thanks

I tried googling and different apps once for same idea. I ran into an article saying its impossible with current Bluetooth, let me google to get the link.
Don't believe me and lose hope yet, that was like a year ago
How is your quest on finding a way to use an Android device as a microphone for the PS3?
From what I Researched, I can dual boot a 4.0/4.1 ROM with Safestrap and use BlueputDroid.
Will try and report back
