Problems switching from Bluetooth to handset or speaker - Omni Q&A

Hi,
I've tried searching for the similar topic, but didn't find one.
There is this annoying problem with Bluetooth. While connected to bluetooth car kit and making a call everything works fine until you want to go private and switch to the handset speaker. You may here some sound for 5-10 seconds and then you can hear nothing while the other party hears you. Switching back to bluetooth resolves the issue.
I could post a bug report, but have no idea how to do this
Thank You

I use the Samsung S3 I9300 and have the same problem but I cant hear anything immediately if I leave the car. I have to stop the call and dial again without bluetooth.

Call breaks up using Carkit & Speakerphone

Hi,
I have the TyTn and when I connect it via Bluetooth to my Nokia CK7W carkit callers complain that my voice breaks up and they only hear every 2nd word or so. I also get the same complaints when using the handsfree inbuilt speakerphone, and that my voice fades in and out.
Yet when I talk normally with the phone to my ear the problem isn't there.
I've tried raising my voice and speaking closer to the mic in both cases but this doesn't work.
Any suggestions?
Tnx
Ari
Might be similair to the issues other users and I are having.

Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately it's not related to the other forums. My phone keeps the bluetooth connection and both incoming and outgoing voices can be heard.
I've heard it for myself and it sounds like i'm in a bad reception area. What's really puzzling is that it also happens when I speak on the phone with the speakerphone activated, yet when I place the phone right to my mouth then the problem goes away, so i'm thinking it's something to do with the mic switching off to cancel any echo?

[Q] Jabra Extreme2 with Epic 4G causes phone to freeze

I have searched and searched and I am actually currently waiting two new Jabra Extreme2 headsets from Jabra.... but I don't have a lot of faith that the problem will be solved.
The scenario is simple.. Calling and listening to music is fine. The issue is on incoming calls, and only MOST of the time.
If the headset is on and connected (bluetooth) the ringtone will start to stutter and the announcement in the headset will be "call from " and a number instead of the actual name in the contact list. At this point the phone will be frozen. The call will roll to voicemail. The only way to shut the headphone up from repeating the number continuously is to turn it off. Once the headset is off, you can usually get to the pulldown and turn off bluetooth. It will take awhile (minute or two) to release, but it will. At this point you can turn on the headset and turn on bluetooth again and make a call without issue. Maybe even receive a call... but about 8 out of 10 calls will result in the above.
My wife and I each have an Epic 4g and a Jabra Extreme2 headset. The issue is the same on both phones. We have older Jabra BT530 headsets that other than sounding like crap. (old bluetooth tech) work great, no issues.
I'm not convinced the issue is the headset. I mean really, there is no "software" for the headset. It's just a bluetooth connection, so why is the phone freezing? I tried different ringtones as I thought that might be the issue, but it isn't.
Does anyone have any thoughts or insight, or any idea if it could actually be the headset causing the phone to freeze.
Also, does anyone know how to disable the PBAB as that seems to be related but without being able to disable it, I can't confirm.
Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated. Anyone using the Extreme2 ?
Well, I have a Moto Finiti Bluetooth and I am not having any of the issues you mentioned so far. Thankfully its connecting better than earlier ROM releases on my Epic

Note 4 Exynos Bluetooth Voice Call Problem

Hello everyone, I run into a really weird problem on my Note 4 when receiving voice calls while using a bluetooth headset.
Summary:
If BT headset is not already connected before initiating or receiving a voice call, you have to press bluetooth button during the call to direct sound to phone and then back to the BT in order to get the mic on the headset to work.
More Details :
1. Incoming Voice call
2. While phone is ringing i turn on the bluetooth headset.
3. I answer the call(Either from phone or the headset)
4. I can hear the other party, but he doesn't hear me.
5. The bluetooth headset mic is not working, neither the phone's mic.
6. If i press the bluetooth icon on the phone(while in a voice call) to direct audio to phone, everything works fine.
7. If i press again to direct audio back to bluetooth headset, everything works fine.
8. If the headset is already connected to the phone before i receive the voice call everything works fine.
9. If i make a voice call (maybe cause headset is already connected?) everything works fine.
10. Problem doesn't occur if it's a VOIP call through skype viber etc.
10. Using plantronics Marque M165 & M55, I have unpaired both repaired, cleared bluetooth cache etc problem still there. Lollipop 5.0.1.
For me it's a big issue since if i have the phone in my bag/pocket i have to take it out in order to be able to use the headset, which kind of defeats the purpose.
Anyone facing this ? Any suggestions?
Sorry for the long post & thanks in advance !
Anyone?
Anyone with similar problems ? Any ideas or suggestions ???
Yes, I have a similar problem, but with my car's bluetooth (the only hands free I use). This problem started after I upgraded to Lollipop, and it worked fine in KitKat.
With te device connected to the car's bluetooth, I have to make the call in the phone's Speaker mode until the other party answers. Only then I can switch to bluetooth.
If I make the call in bluetooth mode, I won't hear the ringing through the car's speakers and even after the other party answers, we cannot communicate.
This is a serious bug. It is my 4th Samsung Galaxy phone, and the only one that doesn't work properly. My previous S4 worked perfectly and I regret profoundly having bought the Note 4.
Ironically i don't face the problem you have. Mine works fine with my car's BT but i suppose this happens because in my case the car's BT is already connected to the phone.
I suppose you have tried to repair the bluetooth/ cleared BT cache etc right ?
I've just tried the phone with a Samsung bluetooth and problem solved !....So it doesn't play well with the plantronic's BT , warning for potential buyers !

Phone Call - Sometimes the other party is only audible if I turn on the speakerphone

When someone calls me, I cannot hear them unless I turn on my speakerphone. It works if I call out. Anyone encounter this bug?
I have also experienced this issue. So far it seems to occur after I've connected to my hands free bluetooth headset, but I haven't been able to fully confirm this.

I'll try to turn off bluetooth and see if that fixes the problem. That would suck though - I use bluetooth a lot.

Bluetooth issues

Hi everyone,
I recently got my self a OP5 (coming from a Meizu PRO 5). The phone is great but I facing an annoying issue with the Bluetooth.
I have a Sony SBH20 Bluetooth headset. And everything works perfectly fine EXCEPT when someone calls me.
Every single time when I answer the call via my sbh20 I can ear and talk through it but a few seconds later the sound switch back to the phone earpiece.
But on the phone, the logo on the call app is set to the Bluetooth device.
And when I manually switch it to the phone earpiece and then going back to the Bluetooth device, the sbh20 works again. But only for couple of secs and then switch back to the phone with still the Bluetooth headset selected.
My phone is completely stock with noting fancy on it.
The phone is up to date according the present date (10/08/17).
PS : I set my phone from scratch. No migration or something like that.
Thanks you for your comments.

Anyone please?
I use a Bose Bluetooth head phones no issues while calling.
Try some other headphones!!
I had a similar issue with my OP5 connection with my car's Bluetooth. It always fails to discover car's Bluetooth after connecting to the car, and stopping and starting the car. I did some research and most of the suggestions stated the issue was with cache. I reset the cache and did not have the problem. worth a try.
