Bluetooth is randomly disconnects - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Lately I have a problem which occurs somewhere after installing one of the latest Roms.
The Bluetooth connection to my incar Radio is unreliable.
Sometimes it connects sometimes it doesn't.
When I'm making the first call, it works just fine, but the second call, doesn't go through the Bluetooth to the radio.
Going to Bluetooth setting, the car radio seems to be connected, but it doesn't work.
What can be done to solve this annoying matter?
Thanks,
Amir.

Bluetooth and WiFi won't work at same time

I have an 8125 with the 2.17 ROM. When trying to stream audio using WiFi and my 820 bluetooth headphones, the blutooth connect breaks after about 5 seconds and cannot be re-established until a reboot. If I stream using GPRS the bluetooth works fine. Can WiFi and Bluetooth normally be used together or is there something wrong on my unit?
They are supposed to be able to work together concurrently but sometimes there can be conflict with the signals.
One thing you can try is to set your wireless router to use a different wifi channel to the one you are on now and see if it makes things any better.
It won't work
I have tried everything. Re-installed everything. Turned things off, turned things on. Nothing corrects the problem. Motorola says to disable the phone connection to relsolve the problem. That does not work either. The Bluetooth A2DP is not working right. Maybe it is the ROM I am using. It is simply 2.17. Is there a bug in that one and should I reflash with a newer one?

Bluetooth connection with Pioneer 9880BT car audio

In my car I've the Pioneer 9880BT (with bluetooth support). I can connect with the radio without any problem, but I saw a lot of limitations. I can't transfer my contacts to the radio. It freezes in the receiving contacts screen and then the bluetooth disconnects. Another thing is that after connecting, the only thing in the display that appears is that the hermes is connected. It don't display signal strength, battery power and other things that I saw after connecting a friend's basic cellphone from Nokia or Motorola.
Is there a way to solve these problems?
Thanks
Try installing Jetwaremobile on the phone, that extends the bluetooth capabilities.

Thanks, I'll try it
It worked, thanks a lot
I have only one problem now, i still can't send my contacts.
Sending contacts have now worked, but there is another problem. I can't send more than 7 contacts a time. Hermes displays that has sent all the contacts (it sends very fast), but in the radio it freezes after sending 6/7 contacts. Closing the sending window in hermes, the radio displays contacts sent. Maybe the sending is too fast?
Thanks.
I was wondering iif you were able to get the pioneer to automatically detect the phone? I have a tytn and the P980BT and everything works great except for the contacts and the fact that I have to manually establish a connection with the phone.
Now it's eveything ok, I've installed Jetware 1.2 beta version. Now I've transfered all the contacts (273) without any problem.
The connection is automatic only when the bluetooth is active. If you turn the radio off (and in your car the radio is turned off after turning the car off) then you need to connect manually after turning the radio on.
If you can turn the radio on even with the car off, then the bluetooth will stay active even turning the radio off (you will see the bt light on), and after returning to the car, the bt will connect automatically. It won't connect only if you turn off and take the face off. Then you need to connect manually again.
interresting
So you work around is to keep the deck powered at all times and manually shutoff when you leave the car. Can you remove the faceplate and still have it work?

Bluetooth Radio turning off by itself

I have the mono audio set just the way I like it using my default 8525 and your fix plus BTAudio.
However, I still have the problem where my BT simply turns off or drops the link to my heaset. Never during a call or while listening to a podcast, but I'll go to use the headset and it searches. Check the BT Radio and it's off. Sometimes it'll turn back on, other times I have to soft reset.
Did you ever experience this problem? Have you managed to resolve it and how did you resolve it? Is the Widcomm the way to go - all I care about is making/receiving calls from my headset and mono audio. Internet sharing would be rare, haven't done it yet, just use my USB cable for the modem dialer.
As soon as XDA-Live is a little more mature I'll be switching to that, but I'm also contemplating upgrading the radio to 1.34...

I have the same problems. If you find a solution post it here.

bluetooth switches itself off!!!

Using the Touch HD with a builtin bluetooth car kit. Everything works fine, the phone's contact list displays on the screen of the car. The pairing went fine. Call history works. Happy me. But occasionally i notice after making a call via the car (after hangup) the connection disappears and i check the phone. Bluetooth is switched off!!! How can this be? Are there any settings i have missed?
Any other users experience this?
same here with my bt handsfree
what if you connect it to powersupply ?
with power : working
without power : after some minutes off
sometimes I can not access the contactlist, stop the car, remove the key, start again and it works
There is something wrong with BT + car
I've had my HD a couple of days and use it with the built in BT in my Audi. The car displayed "telephone is not connected" and when I checked the phone, no BT icon. I've had problems in the past with other makes not working very well like this and was thinking it was going to be the same here... As I was getting annoyed a call came in, rang for about half a ring on the phone then it reconnected to the car and continued ringing there, answered the call just fine.
Since then it's done the same thing twice, I'd prefer it didn't but it hasn't actually caused a problem yet.
BT shuts off by itself.
I seem to be having the same problem in my Audi Q7. It does not make a difference weather to be connected to a power supply or not.
Im having the same issue here, in my A4 Cab with integrated UHV 0420
Strange thing is, it doesnt disconnect from my works Parrott kit.
It does turn off the Bluetooth on the phone, strange. It didnt happen for the first week though.
Any ideas?
Bloke
same here. having problems with my Land Rover LR2. first week, there were no problems. now, the phone doesn't automatically connect when i start the car, i have t manually connect it by pressing the phone button on my dashboard. it then connects with no problem. however, when i try to place a call, it automatically disconnects the bluetooth.
not sure if this is a problem with the htc or my car; i have to try another phone with the car first.
Same happens in my Lamboughini and also my Mercedes- Benz E Class.
Looks like I'll just have to stick with my roller from now on!!!!
I see I'm not the only one with this problem. Soooo...... anyone got a fix?
Please, at least have you checked for a few seconds after the disconnect to see what happened ??
Well, I have a BMW S1 with in-car bluetooth. I previously owned an S200, SE K800i and a Touch Pro and never got any problems with those phones.
With HD Touch I also have the same problems like you people, but 2 or 3 seconds later the BMW regain the connection with my HD.
So, for me this is no big deal. If this only happens to me, then I'm the first to apologize my introduction on this post, if not... lol
Im sure its not related, but I installed the hotfix for the TF3d earlier and I didnt have any disconnects on the way home....... ????? Go HTC.....
Bloke
yesterday i installed the hotfix from htc, but today i lost bluetooth connection again in the car. The bluetooth in the car keeps functioning, but the bluetooth on the HD has deactivated itself! With my previous sony ericsson phone (also bluetoot 2.0) i didn't have this problem. So i think it's related to the bluetoothsoftware on the HD.

Have a look at this thread - also bluetooth problems with pairing issues - looks like BT maybe bugged
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442987&highlight=bluetooth+problems
Hello,
I have the same problem. I can not really use bluetooth in my car, because the Touch HD ends the connection after a few minutes (most times after less than five minutes).
Without a connection to the car, bluetooth will not be ended by the Touch HD, so it seems to be a problem of a connection to a bluetooth headset or a problem of a connection only to a car bluetooth "headset".
Regards
Thomas
Does this only apply to original built-in bluetooth kits and not after-market kits?
My BT-radio does not have problems with the Touch HD, but it is an after-market radio.
Same problem here. My connections drops also. I drive an Opel Zafira with builtin bluetooth carkit. Bluetooth is turned off after a while.
I've noticed when i start the car a connection is made and a few seconds later bluetooth is turned off and immediatly turned on again. After it's turned on, the connection is stable for a while. A few moments later it turns off again. Then i have turn the bluetooth connection manually.
Today i had a phone confercation for a half hour. The connection stayed stable. When i hang up the phone, the connection dropped .
Can the synchronisation of the phonebook be the problem? I had this problem with my p3600. After installing Jetware, the problem was solved. I've installed Jetware on my HD, but with no luck .
Is there a way to log the bluetooth communication. May be it tell us more
Indeed the HD bluetooth seems to be poor, I also experienced bluetooth switching off by it self when trying to pair with my Motorola S9 headphones, I have the hotfix installed, before I didn't notice this bluetooth behavior.
Also when exiting Opera the phone hangs, not always but sometimes
Anyone solved the problem yet
I send a email to HTC support. Hopefully they can help. If they answer......word goes arround that htc support sucks
still don't have a solution.........

Bluetooth and S9 issues on 2.73 ROM

Hi
I have the T-Mobile G2 Touch and a Motorola S9 headphones. Using the Origianl Stock T-Mobile ROM i have had no issues with bluetooth.
BUT
using the generic 2.73 ROM i have issues with connecting to the headset
It will connect, then instantly disconnect, then try to connect again, at which point it fails to connect properly
To Reproduce:
Using a HTC Hero & 2.73 ROM
Pair your S9's with the Hero
then Turn off the S9's and Bluetooth
Then turn on Bluetooth, and the S9's with the Bluetooth Settings up
you will see it say "Connected with Media", "Paired but not Connected", then "Connecting......." at which point it will fail
I have tried all the different radio versions to make sure it isnt a issue with the radio, but the same problem prevails.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue? or what is causing it?
I also had issues with an unlocked Hero and a Sennheiser MM200 headset. Worked perfectly on original rom, but very fiddly to setup with the 2.73 rom.
The only way I can get them to work properly with the phone is to:
1) Make sure headset is turned off, as well as bluetooth on phone
2) Turn on headset
3) Then turn on bluetooth on phone
Headset connects as normal - any other sequence doesn't work.
I have tried this, and it doesnt seem to work. I have been trying it for the last hour.
While in Bluetooth Settings it says its connected with media, then is disconnects, then it trys to connect again, and then it just says "Connecting.........." for ages
The Headset light flashes as if it was connected.
I also had problems connecting MM200. I could connect it, but then it kinda stuck when i was pressing play button.
But then i decided to check my old sony ericsson bluetooth headset - it was working normally. And after that the MM200 also was working. One wonders.
Still i've noticed some stuttering problems when song starts. And it seems to start with faster tempo and then slow down after 10 seconds to normal speed (could be related to that stuttering? Trying to compensate for the lost time or something). No issues when i'm listening to wired headphones - so it must either something with hero bluetooth or MM200.
I have to check how it works with my old headset, but i'm kinda afraid of having MM200 connection problems again.
Ok
i will keep playing around. i have some CX-300II coming next week so i have a backup plan if i cant get the bluetooth stuff working properly
Thanks for your help

I think the speeding up / slowing down and stuttering is more to do with the Hero - I have tried the headset connected to a laptop and there is no problem whatsoever. Hopefully the next Android update will improve the bluetooth problems.
not compatible with new mazda 3
Well the hero is probably the best phone ive had and ive had many many phones over the years including the jesus phone which was pants.
Well ive just bought a new mazda 3 and unfortunately the hero does not like connecting to the car via bluetooth. tried all sorts. sometimes it works but usually only for a couple of times and then manages to lock the car radio up.
So its bye bye hero for me as i need a compatable phone for my car. looks like its back to nokia...shame as i really love the phone
