My phone connected via bluetooth to my car no problems until yesterday. All of a sudden it stopped working, i noticed no other changes, so i proceeded to try to pair both from my phone end and the car, still wasnt working so i unpaired and removed the device from my car and phone and tried to repair, the car (2012 sonata) tells me to pair from the phone, and on the phone it cannot find the bluetooth of the car.
I was freaking out and thought it was the car, but i tried my tablet and laptop, andboth are able to pick them up, ive tried turning bluetooth on/off and restarting the entire phone,
Has anyone else experienced their bluetooth going out on the s5 yet?
and what do you think would help? factory reset, or manufacturers return for hardware error?

Have you tried pairing your phone with other devices than car? At least, it will confirm that your phone Bluetooth is working fine.

then take it to the store after trying factory resetting.
I've been experiencing some issues with my bluetooth in cars and with wireless headsets. it has annoyed me enough to search the forums today.
Issue with Pandora and bluetooth controls can pause, cannot resume play with MS530 wireless headset.
Issue with Pandora and bluetooth controls can pause, cannot resume play with 2012 Volvo S60 T6 R-Design.
Issue with Pandora and bluetooth controls can pause, cannot resume play with 2011 Volvo S60 T6.
Issue with Pandora and bluetooth controls can pause, cannot resume play with Aftermarket Sony deck in my truck (don't have the model handy).
Built in player sometimes has the same issues, I see more issues when the phone is locked. Fingerprint scanner on.
Today bluetooth locked up totally and had to reboot the device. I did not power down my headset before I left range of my phone and came back and it would not re-connect. I unpaired and attempted to repair and it would not. rebooted powered everything off and repaired and it started working again.
Bluetooth has issues on the S5 phones in my opinion. My iphone 5 has no issues at all with everything. locked or not. Was thinking of rooting to see if I could fix some of these issues as I prefer Android as I like the apps better and the openness to get stuff done.

No, it's not a S5 issue, it's an Android issue and it's been continuous since the beginning. These problems have happened with my previous 3 phones too, so don't delude yourself into thinking these are specific to this phone. Or that they will be fixed for that matter...

I disagree.
Bluetooth has worked on all the android models I've had in the past.
Past Android phones:
HTC Hero - worked great, slow though
HTC EVO - worked great
LG Nexus 4 - worked great
Motorola Zoom - worked great
Samsung Moment - Slow but worked
Samsung Epic - worked great
Samsung S3 - worked great
But if you want to blame the OS go for it. I think your alone there. Its a software issue with Samsung crap in my opinion vs security and all the bells and whistles they are trying to use. I think Android has nothing to do with the issue at all.
I have a moto headset with my s5 and no problems. Had no problems with same one on my s4 either so I wouldn't blame all the phones. It's electronics. Things can go won key when you have a lot of parts. It's probably just that. It happens. Even on iPhone's.
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app
I have problems too. Very odd tho. I can pair my phone and listen to my music just fine. However if I try to use my gps while the BT is connected, no audio will cone from the phone or the BT radio. But as soon as I turn off thr BT on my phone, I can hear my gps through my phone just fine.
I haven't done a factory reset yet, but I have cleared thr phone from my car and re-paired.....still nothing.
The even stranger thing....every one in a while it will work, 9 times out of 10 it won't work. It has worked 2 times since I bought the phone, April 25th.
Never had a problem like this before, with other phones.
meh

As I reply to this one person said they have no problems, one said they have problems. I have had the same issues with syncing and playback on my 2 previous phones, neither of them the S5. There are idiosyncrasies that exist in the software (like any software ever) that just don't work sometimes. I don't know why we should think this phone would be any different.
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.
Let me lower your stock:
XT1650_GRIFFIN_VERIZON_7.0_NCLS25.86-11-4_cid2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
But I do not know how to flash

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.

Same issue for me.
My Bluetooth is very problematic too. Whenever I connect to car device it just auto-disconnects. FIX THIS PLEASE LENOVO!!!
Is anybody having experiencing Bluetooth issues when streaming music or phone calls to your car radio or portable speakers? This seems to be a major problem with many people on the Sprint variant of this device and I wanted to know if any of the AT&T folks are facing any similar issues..
none here, I use my Samsung level BT speaker and it works fine. im on the 930fd model tho.
I was having the issue when I was with Sprint. I switched to At&t a week later and I haven't had the issue since. I'm not sure if it was Sprint related or device related. I got my wife the Note 7 on AT&T too and there have been no issues.
I reset all my network settings on the Sprint version though and it did seem to help quite a bit.
i use a bluetooth headset and the bluetooth in my car every day with no issues.
my ATT note 7 rooted with spirit firmware lost its paired device log every time its rebooted, forcing me to pair it with my car again every a few days.
No problems connecting and staying connected to a Subaru STi '17 stock system (starlink) and a pioneer aftermarket one.
I've had horrible issues with the note7. Twice. First when I moved from a note4 and then again when I moved from the AT&T-provided S7 interim device back to the non-exploding version of the note7. Whatever Samsung changed bluetooth-wise between the S7 and note7 has made it completely useless in several situations.
A few examples:
Witti Designs' Beddi alarm clock is displayed in the Beddi app but will not completely pair.
Automatic v2 adapter had to about stand on my head to get it paired (multiple resets, unplug / plug adapter, etc)
Plantronics Voyager Legend Call quality is completely worthless.
All three devices worked flawlessly with the Note4 and the interim S7. I could list more craptastic behavior but I think that suffices to prove my point.
Hello, I recently bought a 32 GB g4+ and everything was awesome so I decided to upgrade to the 64GB version of it. Ever since I switched to the larger model I have not been able to connect to my JBL charge 3 Speaker (recognizes it but says it cannot connect) or my LG tone+ headphones Can’t find them to pair at all, other phones can see and connect), although it connects fine to my pioneer deck in my car and my Samsung sound bar. When I was using the 32 GB model it worked fine with all these devices and my note5 works with all these devices. I have tried factory reset, resetting network settings, factory reset JBL charge 3, none of these things have worked. has anybody else had connectivity issues? any solutions?
This phone is on the newest factory firmware, have not rooted yet. Sprint network.
Since the previous two updates on my Verizon V20 were installed (VS99518A & VS99519A) running 7.0 , I have been having bluetooth issues where there are momentary pauses while connected to BT earphones and random "rustling" sounds when I am connected to my car stereo (A2DP). There are even times the bluetooth does not reconnect (have to manually select the paired device at the pop-up).
I have already performed a factory reset and it still happens. These issues do not occur on other android phones so it can't be my stereo and bt earphones' at fault.
Any ideas? What should I check?
Thanks.
I really wish I could help you. Ive been having the same issues. Please follow up if you figure it out and I will as well
Same here
The 7.0 update took a while to get to me but now that it has, I'm not impressed and wish I could revert.
Immediately after I started noticing the same issues as OP. In addition, I can no longer BT FTP send to my desktop but I can receive from the desktop.
I've tried quite a number of things to resolve but none have. Several soft resets, hard reset, network reset, factory reset, reset of desktop settings (although apparently not needed a SIM-less Galaxy S4 does NOT have issues with BT FTP to the same desktop....
Attempting to pair the two, the S4 can see the V20 but the V20 does not recognize the S4.
I believe it is 7.0 update related because all was fine prior and the issues were noticed just 20 minutes after.
