Any clues?
Seems like ever since buying gear 2, I've been having issues with all of my sounds not working, like sound from YouTube and alarm clock wake up
Update : I have two bluetooth devices connected at one time on my s4. My gear 2 and a Plantronics headset. I'm thinking here lies the issue. ..
When I turn off my headset, sound is still piped out via Bluetooth. It should come back to my phone.

Hi everyone,
I picked up my GSIII yesterday (SGH-I747, Bell version from Canada). The phone is a champ, but so far I found fairly serious problem. My car has bluetooth phone functions built in. I paired the phone with it, and it pairs just fine. I can receive and make calls from the car just fine as well, but there is no incoming or outgoing audio. When connected to my car's bluetooth, there is no audio going through my car's speakers or through the phone. It is only when I grab the phone and unclick the "bluetooth headset" button that I can talk on the phone. If I turn "bluetooth headset" back on, there is no sound again. My car worked with my old Blackberry 8330, so the car is fine. It's a 2009 Mercedes-Benz B200, fully loaded, Canadian spec. It has the AUDIO 20 system built in.
My phone specs are as follows:
-stock ROM, not rooted or anything (do we have root yet?)
-Baseband: I747MVLLE8
-Build: IMM76D-I747MVLLE8
The GSII seemed to have the same problem when it came out and it was fixed with a firmware update (http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/5212-Speaker-and-mic-problem-when-calling-someone.)
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
Did u by any chance turned down the volume on the phone?

Bluetooth worked fine in my car. Made a call. And they could hear me and I heard them. This with a Kenwood hdx6980

after pairing did you go into the bluetooth setting for the paired device (car) and check the "call audio" box?

Nope, I checked the volume and everything is turned up the way it's supposed to be.

Yep. It's checked. Moreover, if I uncheck it, the car doesn't connect to the phone.
I'll check my calling this morning, but yesterday I had streaming audio via bluetooth (audible playing a book). The only thing I noticed was that, unlike my old myTouch 4g running CM7, the book didn't stop playing when I turned the car off. That's something I'll have to work out.
EDIT - it's only audible that gives me a problem - looks like a specific app issue.
I'll l have to check if my calls work. All my music and podcast work good. They stop when the car turns off and starts up again when I start the car the next day.
Edit: Just tried it out and incoming and outgoing call sounds work great. No issues here.

I have absolutely no issues with incoming and outgoing calls through Bluetooth in my car. Also, I have no issues playing music through Bluetooth. Possibly try a factory reset on your phone and try again...
It sounds like all your cars support A2DP for playing music. Mine doesn't, it just acts as an old-school bluetooth headset. Can that make a difference?
Mine plays perfectly using Googles Play Music streaming service, also calls work fine, too. This is on my Dodge's U-Connect.
Update: I tried with an old jawbone headset to see if it's a general Bluetooth problem or just specific to my car. The jawbone works like a charm, so it's not a problem with Bluetooth versions or anything like that. But I did notice something interesting: in the Bluetooth options in the gs3 the jawbone comes up with a picture of a phone handset beside it whereas the car has a picture of headphones. I think that's the problem: the phone recognized the wrong Bluetooth profile. I can't seem to delete th car off the list of Bluetooth devices. This is rreally irritating. Any suggestions (short of a total reset)? Thanks!
You might see if there's an update for your car's Bluetooth... if so that might fix your issue.

No go so far. I'll have to try a reset, otherwise wait for an update or some custom ROMs.
Update: I still haven't done the reset, but I went to the Mercedes dealer today. They told me (after almost a day of investigating) that Germany said that the GSIII is forever incompatible with the B200. I think that's pretty dumb because the problem is clearly software, but the dealer seems to be washing its hands of this matter.
I have a note 10.1 gt-8013 (2012) with 4.1.2. I have a bluetooth speaker that I used to be able to connect to without any problem in the past. Now it shows that I'm connected to speaker but sound comes out of notes speakers, but i can still control music from speaker controls(next song, repeat etc). I also have a android phone running 2.3.4 that is having the same problems, shows connected but music coming from phones speakers. I thought it might be the speaker going bad, but I have another speaker and these two devices act the same way with it. I know the speakers work fine because my wife has an iphone that connects without any problems to both speakers. Is there some some setting on my phone or tablet that has changed that doesent let me connect to bt speaker? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Have you tried to re-pair them together again? Unpair them and then re-pair.

Hi guys. I am wondering if anyone else is having the same issue I am.
In no certain frequency, when I'm playing music through my Bose SoundLink Mini Bluetooth speaker from the Google Play Music app, it will sometimes skip and speed up/change pitch. It seems to happen on both WiFi and LTE. Haven't noticed it through plugged-in headphones.
I also noticed it when I had an AT&T Galaxy S4 through a Logitech Bluetooth stereo adapter and a Creative D100 Bluetooth speaker using the same app - Google Play Music.
I had both a Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 and never noticed it with either device.
All my devices have had the stock roms (non-rooted), and were always up to date. My Galaxy S5 is on Verizon. I haven't tried any music through the native music player app (such an mp3 or flac) but will update when I do.
Very annoying issue, especially for a musically sensitive person such as myself! I have sent multiple bug reports through the Google reporting process, and I guess I need to figure out how to send some to Samsung. Just wanted to see if anyone else had the same issues. Didn't see any other mentions of it on XDA. My apologies if there are similar posts on here and I didn't see them. Thanks!

I would root the device & keep the stock rom and install Viper4Android, It's the best sound app/mod that I have ever used and It will let you adjust all of your bluetooth sounds.

For me It's worth rooting just so I can use Viper4Android..
I think it's the Bose device. I have the same issue with the Bose SoundLink Mini. Completely different phone than you. Droid Turbo. Never happens with any other Bluetooth headphones or with my car. It's very annoying. Any slight interruption in the audio stream to the Bose, and the music's pitch goes up like a quarter step. No it doesn't happen on any other Bluetooth device I have nor does it do it on the phones speaker or plugged headphones.
Apparently many people are having this issue with Bose SoundLink and similar devices. https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=69397
I got a Bose Color SoundLink for Christmas, playing a station on TuneIn...after a little while there's a slight pause and the music starts up again at a faster speed! I was wondering if anyone else was hearing this and now I see its other Bose owners. Same thing happened with YouTube.
I have a rooted Note 3 running KitKat. Not upgrading to Lollipop.
Never happens if I use my LG BT earbuds or BT to my other little portable speakers.
Paired my phone with my level on Bluetooth headphones and the audio is very choppy. Didn't experience this on my note 5.
Any ideas? Will try repairing it and see if that helps.

BT audio works great for me.
Useless comment, really, I know.
I have three devices I've used it with (LG HBS-730 headset, MPOW receiver for wired headphones, and the head-unit in my car - VW RCD 310 in my '13 Golf).
Have you tried your phone with other BT audio?
Seems to be working better now.

Works better than nexus 6p with same BT devices. Only had it drop once vs daily on nexus (main reason I sold it). All BT devices can have a little different stack and that includes phones. Unfortunately, BT is hit and miss. Unpair device and boot into recovery and wiping cache. Sometimes that helps.
I have a pair of Samsung level u pro Bluetooth headset paired to my S7E that i bought on friday which when i paired them to the phone they worked fine all day Friday. Now all of a sudden if a contact calls with a custom ringtone the phone plays the ringtone obviously but the headset does not it plays some generic tone at the same time. Any ideas?

New owner.
Tested several BT headsets, car BT and most of the time i get stattic and Extremly bad call quality on both ends.. Sometimes it works without any problem.
Even Call quality with phone itself is pretty bad compared to other phones i owned.
Googled and several have this issue.
Wounder if there is any fix?

I have no issues either with my headphones.
Its only Call qualty..IF i listen to a radio station/song on BT there are no problems. But as soon as its a call it goes to hell! Must be a software issue.
Beside that even call recorders have problem.
I had the same issues with my car stereo and Bluetooth. Kept having to repair. Same thing happens to my smart watch. I just feel like it's something in the Bluetooth radio. Idk it's really annoying.

Sadly its very anoying and if the Nougat firmware wont fix it i will return the phone. Will wait 1 more week
I Tested it with following BT
Car BT Audio streaming works,. Calls Disaster
Jabra Stealth - Works on both calls and audio. BT 4.1
Jabra Boost - Horrible at calls, Audio streams works fine
Samsung Gear S3 Works on both calls and audio
Dunno if changing caller app changes anything?! But strange thing that it works for some headsets but not all. And its easier to change the phone than the Car
