[Q] Bluetooth Connection Problems

Hi all
I'm hoping for some help with a niggling issue with connection on my HD2. I am trying to connect it to my Pioneer head unit in my car. I am able to get it to connect in 'Open Connection' but I have to turn blue-tooth on after I turn on the head-unit. I have tried to register the handset which is sees but doesn't pair....I know I am using the correct pair pin as I have had it paired in the past. :S
Obviously it is an inconvenience in having an open connection and having to turn on and off all the time but i'd rather it connected as soon as I turn on the headunit without messing about with the phone each time.
Can anyone shed any light onto this problem?

Use bluetooth to connect a android head to internet

Has anyone tried to connect their android heads to the internet with bluetooth as it is a little more energy efficient than wifi hotspot?

Strange issue with hotspot and bluetooth

I have this strange issue with my G4
It's my workphone and i use it in my van with hotspot-starter app.
i get in the car, turn on ignition and my phone connects to the inbuild handsfree system.
The hotspot-starter app toggles the hotspot so my tablet wich running navigation has internet for live traffic information......
This worked flawless with my previous phone but with my G4 the tablet won't stay connected to the phones hotspot, it keeps connecting and disconnecting every minute or so. But when i toggle bluetooth off and on again everything works fine and keeps working without any problem.
It seems like if the bluetooth connection is made before the hotspot is turned on, the hotspot fails to maintain a connection....

Interesting; haven't seen this. A possible workaround is to use Bluetooth tethering vs a WiFi hotspot to deliver internet connectivity to the tablet. Works great, connects faster and has a side benefit of consuming less juice on both ends. I use a similar config due to the crappy G4P GPS receiver.
Is it possible to use 2 bt connections simultaniously?
Handsfree set and tether to the tablet?

Give it a shot. It is certainly possible to establish multiple BT connections simultaneously. I occasionally use a BT keyboard, mouse and speaker with a cheap Amazon tablet. Doesn't miss a beat.
OK..... I got bluetooth connection made between phone and tab, checked bt tether on both devices otherwise it won't connect at all....... But no internet passtrough ?

Hum, sorry to hear that. Make sure WiFi is disabled on the tab. Have to believe the fault lies with the tablet as I'm able to successfully tether several different devices (individually) to my G4P via BT. Works a treat and cuts power drain on the G4P by half meaning I don't have to keep it on charge during longer trips.

Bluetooth issues since 8.1

Hi There, since July update I have serious bluetooth issues.
As also reported by other users when you want to share the internet connection (tethering) via bluetooth the bluetooth app crashs.
it es even reproducable.
So as I was not able anymore to tether and bring my car online (toyota touch and go) I tried to switch to Wifi Hotspot, which works fine.
however yesterday I recognized that when Wifi hotspot is activated audio streaming via bluetooth is interrupted every few seconds.
anybody else here with same experience?
any workarounds avaialble?
how can I create a bug report and submit to Xiaomi, is this even possible?
thanks
and brgds

Wifi Keeps disconnecting when hotspoting from Iphone to Seicane 10in head unit

The wifi will connect after toggling the wifi on/off buttom, but is there a dongle or something I can connect via usb to maintain a strong connection? Also, maps doesn't seem to work even when the wifi is connected. Works fine in carplay tho.
