Bluetooth AVRCP Issue in Cars = OxygenOS - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone, long time lurker, first time poster here. I'll get right to it..
A lot of OP2 users that have the stock ROM, or any Oxygen-based ROMS are having issues with Bluetooth AVRCP when connecting to car stereos. For some (myself included), music metadata will not display and track control functions are not working when connected to my 2015 Civic Touring w/ Hondalink. Others are experiencing problems with phonebook not syncing. For some, it's all of the above.
Link to an active thread in OP forums for MORE INFO (pages 5-7 has the best info):
*edit* I can't post external links yet, but if you Google "Bluetooth AVRCP OnePlus 2" and click the first link, that is the thread.
What some people have discovered so far is that some car stereos do not support AVRCP 1.5 yet, and OnePlus has 1.5 enabled in OxygenOS. Some people have flashed CM 12.1 and that resolves the issue as AVRCP 1.5 is disabled.
My question is, does anyone know any OxygenOS based ROM that have AVRCP 1.5 disabled? I have tried flashing SkyDragon ROM but issue still persists. Thanks in advance!

Did you solve your problem?

BlueTooth CarKit ISSUE

Hello buddies,
this thread is about some strange behavior of bluetooth with current energy roms. details follow...
why a new thread?
I decided to start a new thread, because it leads to nothing to discussing this topic in the main thread ... found some people who shares my sorrow, never the less there was a lot of users who hit the answer button on page 1 and report "problem xy" or "hell yeah what a nice rom"
what is the problem?
I'm not able to pair my TouchHD with my car's Hands Free system. A2DP works fine, but when I turn on the Radio Unit a small blue headphone symbol blinks in the statusbar of the phone - no pairing succeeds. If I switch to BT audio, a black headphone symbol stays resident and the media player opens for playback, so A2DP works. Installing SIM access profile on roms without built in rSAP or other various tools in addition doesn't make it work. [see "what have been done" section!]
Just used the latest MIRI-Roms (discontinued) and it works like a charm for me. After initial setup, Hands Free (version 1.5) and Wireless Stereo where installed and activated - Serial Port left out unchecked. Then a popup message informs me, that a BT-Device is trying to access phones phonebook remotly - all went fine.
as reported by other users, this behavior occurs since ~may versions of energy roms...

sorry dude, not much help but i have the same experience; all energy roms (and i do mean all of them) work perfectly with my parot CK3100 but then i do task 29 before every flash & hard reset a few times after initial setup.
in addition, i also flash the latest stock rom from htc every so often.
i know this seems a bit ott but i rarely seem to suffer the buggy issues that many others do.
hope you get it sorted
It is not about Task 29.
I had problems with access through the original multi-functional touch panel in the Ford Mondeo. When I went to CLEAN ROM, all troubles are gone. The problem is that you must agree with access on the phone. This question is not on Energy ROMs displayed. I can pair phone but can not be used for handsfree calling.
Now I have a CLEAN ROM and everything is bugfree.
To be honest, no ROM to date consistently works with the in-car bluetooth kit in our Zafira. It works flawlessly with my old phone (K800i) and my wife's phone (W950i) but it's just not stable for the HD.
If it works, it'll drop the bluetooth connection after about 15mins. It's as if there is a time-out, but I've hunted the registry and both HD Tweak and Adv. Config for anything related to this but with no joy.
My current ROM seems to be about the best so far (kwbr's WM6.5 and Manila 2.1) but it still drops the connection randomly yet other times it may keep the connection for over an hour no problems.
Seems very very strange to me, but from what I've read, it's a common issue with the bluetooth kits in GM's euro cars (Vauxhall, Saab, Chevrolet etc.)

@DaRulah
what kind of rilphone / radio rom do you use - pointing my research in this direction, may that's the reason... does bluetooth depends on the used radio rom?
@raistlin74 / @Don-Maco
tried all ways possible
car to phone
htc comm mgr to car
windows BT settings to car
@superseagull
having the latest carrier rom flashed before (comes with SPL 1.54 to enable flashing of 6.5+ roms)
what kind of rilphone / radio rom do you use? [EDIT: saw it in your signature ]
@malson
well, sounds logic ... the pairing won't succeed cause the phone's dialog to allow access doesn't appear. will try it with energy's titanium rom. never the less, the outdated MIRI roms /w sense 2.5 and windows mobile 6.5 works for me
@jonifen
as mentioned, the phone is compatible with my car - in basic. simply doesn't work with energy roms.
therefore I tried it with various other systems to exclude a mismatch with my car kit
well, thanks for you participation so far - may we get the clue with my problem
regards - FS
2 options?
Why only two options yes and yes? Why not a no option in the poll? I don't have a problem with nrg roms.

i don't think it's a radio problem since i used that one with older energy roms, and had no problems with my car kit.
no problems here
I tried my phone with a bluetooth carkit in a BMW X5 and found no problems with it. I use latest NRG rom 21905 with CHT and latest Radio (1.17) with Rilphone 1.15. i suggest u upgrade to those as well.

As this is about a genaral pairing problem I don't know if it will help u as u seem to be able to pair but just have Handsfree problems...
But as u didn't mention how u tested out the fixes I will post this here.
Remember i had a problem once when trying to pair my HD.
Base:
- Touch HD with some newer Sense 2.5
- A2DP wasn't working or Windows Mediaplayer hooked A2DP keys
AFTER I tried to fix A2DP problem (installed some "fix" cabs u mentioned above) I wasn't able to pair anymore.
Here is what i figured out:
- To get it working again it didn't help to over-install another fix - don't know why but seems that some fixes do reg changes wich break other ones.
- I had to hard reset the device
- so never try to install 1 fix after another to figure it out
- always do 1 hardreset + 1 fix then hardreset again
- only really good working fix for me was HeadsetFix.cab I posted in NRG thread - many other fixes broke my pairing capability
Now im on:
- actual NRG 2. June MaxSense 23xxx
- HeadsetFix.cab installed (otherwise Windows Mediaplayer pops up or it doesn't work for me)
- haven't had problem with pairing since several month with any NRG Rom (before it wasn't depending on NRG but on Sense 2.5 / but just had A2DP issue - pairing issue just with wrong fixes installed)
Radios I tested were .12 and .14
Tested BT Headsets/Caraudios:
- Motorola HT820
- some Sony MEX BT xxxx Caraudio
BTW for all who are interested in - i always install "AutoA2DP" or "AutoActiveSync" cause A2DP doesn't pair automaticaly in my car - just the Handsfree pairs by default.

or you will have to reset the cars bluetooth as shown in the manual

set up you bT via comm.manager. dont turn Bt on just choose set up bluetooth hdset device etc/ turn you cars bt on an make shure it is visible etc by keeping the on button pressed in while searching with your gsm and thats it i think thats how it worked 4 me and will work 4 every one too!!!
study your old rom be4 you use a new one and you will know how to recognize the differenzesss amen
I've experienced something similar with my volvo. In my case it paired sometimes and usually in a call it disconnected. This happened with all kind of roms. It all disappeared after a radio update.
Somebody mentioned 1.17... with rillphone 1.15... works like a charm!
Hope it helps

Bluetooth A2DP issues w/ 2.1

So, I have searched all over these forums, and cannot find a difinitive answer or solution. I have problems with A2DP when connecting w/ the BT in my car, since installing a 2.1 ROM (currently DC 2.09.01). When connected, the music plays about twice as fast as it should, then slows down, then speeds up again. Conversley, Android 1.5 worked fine. There has been a lot of talk of BT issues, but it doesn't appear there are any solutions. Am I correct, or has someone found a solution? THanks.
ZenEXP works if you dont mind switching.
I have had those problems occasionally with all 2.1 ROMs I have tried. Usually, if I pause and then unpause it solves the problem. Sometimes I have to do it more than once.
I'm currently running ZenEXP and I've had the problem a few times, but it has been significantly less than with other ROMs. However, AVRCP hasn't been working with ZenEXP, whereas it has worked on other 2.1 ROMs, such as DC.
So, with the unrooted stock Sprint 2.1 software, A2DP works?
The Darchdroid ROM actually fixes this problem! I had the exact same problem as you with playing audio in my 2010 Mazda 3 and Darchstar's ROM fixed it for me, it's the only ROM I have found so far that fixes the bluetooth
I have a problem with my bluetooth headset when I'm playing music, the music stutters alot, I almost have to hold my phone a certain way with very little movement in order for it to play decently. Any solutions on that problem?

Turn off/disconnect headset while playing music fixes studdering for me in settings under bluetooth for the connected device. Disconnect the ' phone' while playing. Haven't really tested this on anything but my kenwood head unit.

here's a reply I received from HTC support:
Hello, I understand that you have had issues with your bluetooth since the update for your Hero. With the update, the entire bluetooth stack was updated, and thus some bluetooth devices that previously worked are unfortunately no longer compatible. While we have not heard any information about nor made announcements about any upcoming patches to address this, it is not at all out of the realm of possibility. Otherwise, you may want to try a different bluetooth headset. I do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us again. You can find additional support at support forums at community.htc.com. There is also a customer satisfaction survey for you to take if you are interested.

Bluetooth Stack?
So is it possible for one of the developers on this site to rewrite the bluetooth stack or copy the old one from 1.5 that worked?
I have a Panasonic TH12 bluetooth home phone that worked fine before 2.1. I recently bought an AT&T bluetooth phone and it does the same thing. Will pair but not connect.

I have to call BS on this. (Not on the post, on the reply)
Why would any company not support legacy hardware as simple as Bluetooth. Especially since most devices aren't even Bluetooth v3/v4 standard yet. And Bluetooth 2.1 is 1. Not very old and 2. What 90% of Bluetooth device still manufactured are! and its been around since 2006!
I honestly can't believe a company is going to just say "Oh its to old" instead of fixing their crap. as far as I know v3/v4 is fully backwards compatible to 2.1 because they include "Classic Bluetooth" protocols!
Not to mention I doubt the hardware in our phone is even capable of v4 stuff. I'll have to do some more research on what BT chip is in the phone. Utter BS.
Either Phillip or HTC is a moron.
CDMA Hero Specs for BT:
Supported Profiles: HSP 1.1, HFP 1.5, A2DP, AVRC, (OPP, PBA)
version 2.0+EDR / possibly upgradeable to 2.1+EDR, plus OPP and PBA profiles
2.1 FULLY backwards compatible to v1. Meaning HTC built the crappiest BT Stack allowable by law to say it includes it. May as well have not bothered.
Someone could probably redo things with AOSP and a newer bluez stack.

Yeah, I just bought a BT USB adapter so I could exchange files and synch and stuff. I got it to work ONE time and all it did was pass 200 of my contacts to my phone from my PC. Like it was just waiting to upchuck on me. After that, nothing.
There's three hours of my life and $8.99 I'll never get back.
Bluetooth is pretty much the #1 complaint that users have been posting on the Sprint Community Forums (here's the HTC Hero section). Nearly all of those complaints say that Bluetooth now doesn't work at all or just plain sucks on the stock 2.1 Sprint/HTC release. Which probably also means that any ROM here based on 2.1 stock will also suck it up bad with Bluetooth compatibility. Known problem, no one has done anything about it yet. It sounds like AOSP ROMs don't have this issue, so at least that's good.

[Q] Audio crackle through car speakers on bt

I am getting an audio crackle in my 2005 mini cooper s with a kenwood radio over bluetooth on stock 12b. When on a CM based rom this doesn't happen (lg roms have a built-in equalizer?). If someone knows how to remove the stock eq please post how. Thanks
"I have a similar issue in my 2011 Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The static is only present during loud levels on songs, not at all times during the track. Seems like it is most noticeable on the higher frequencies also. Please reply here if your issue is the same.
I did not have this problem on my HTC One X in the same car.
I have searched all over Android and Hyundai forums and found little to work with. What I have found is that this is not affecting everyone, otherwise it would be all over the forums. I appears to me that it is related to our cars bluetooth receivers and how they communicate with the phone.
I found some posts from a user CBaronne where he had what appeared to be the same issue on another phone and modified the "Bitpool" value with good results. He wanted to do the same on this phone but the variable is buried in a system file and modifying it was beyond his expertise.
I have also flashed several sound mods with no success, as well as different tricks to ensure that APT X is enabled. Nothing has helped.
I think until we get a developer with this phone and has this issue there will not be any attempt made to resolve. You can always just buy another car..."
I have been posting this comment in several threads to try an get some attention on it. This issue is not common enough for it to have consistent comments or investigation. I also can confirm that it does not happen on CyanogenMod, so that's what I use now.

Reading other Android forums and Hyundai threads it DOES appear to be a compatibility issue, meaning that it is about the combination of two devices, it does not affect every G2 bluetooth connection. From the first link I posted it DOES appear that if we can adjust the bitpool values of the G2 we could improve the quality.

sorry for late reply, I was on 4.2.2 stock. right now I am on cloudyflex 4.2.2 and I have yet to see if it makes a difference.
I had the issue on every 4.2.x ROM I tried. When I moved to Cyanogen 11 the crackle went away. I don't want to switch away until I know that this issue is not present on the 4.4 Stock ROM.
My recommendation is that you try a 4.4 Stock ROM if this is important, if that doesn't resolve, go with Cyanogen.
welcome to the world of botched standards, its often appliences with same technology dont always work, just check compatability of devices such as car radios with mobile phones. contact them and ask if they have or can update compatability with newer tech.
its possible kenwood already has an update

Bluetooth issues for 4.4

I've read around, and multiple people are having this issue, without any real solution. Does anyone know of a rom with which bluetooth is stable (or do I have a hardware issue?)
When Bluetooth is connected to any handsfree car system , it cuts out for a few seconds before reconnecting. For example, If I am in a call, it will revert to the built in earpiece & disconnect from the car , only to reconnect seconds later. Same of Bluetooth audio (a2dp). It's fairly disjointed.
I've tried both stock android 4.4.4 & the lastest Cyanogenmod snapshot & nightlies.
Thanks for any help, and I will post back if I find anything useful.
Never happened to me, I've connected with jawbone FM music transmitter, and with several other Bluetooth peripherals including headphones, my smartwatch, and a mono headset and not experienced this. Maybe its a problem with the specific car your trying to connect to? My BMW 750li doesn't pair with the nexus 4, and even a bb z10
Edit: if multiple people are reporting this and multiple hands free car systems don't work then maybe is a hardware issue? Which revision nexus you have ?

I suspect people are experiencing different issues, since no 2 cases appear to be the same. As for me, I have a 2008 Audi with integrated BT which worked fine with Gingerbread. 4.+ has been very different: the connection would often be lost and regained mid-trip and worst of all, 9 times out of 10 I couldn't initiate or terminate calls from the car. That last point is a deal-breaker for me...
Some early KK builds were fine, in fact I used Purity till March. Then a new build came along which returned the above issues. Since then I have tried virtually all the popular ROMs (I would create a Nandroid backup and reflash after a day or so - I still try new builds), and at least for me the AOSP ROMs all have the same issue, above.
I am currently using AICP ROM which is AOKP, nightlies are installed OTA and I don't have a single issue with the car BT any more. And it's a very stable ROM, I´ve been using the ROM for about 4 months I think.
Your mileage may vary, since I suspect we all have different issues, but the AOKP branch works for me. Dirty Unicorns works fo rme too.

Thanks for the responses. The cars work perfectly fine with galaxy phones & iphones, the issues lies with my nexus sadly. I will try the posted roms later on and update!
Also Paul, can you post a link to the rom you have installed? I've been out of the loop for a while and cannot find it !
Mine is also a rev11, 303k. I guess that rules out hardware issue

Here you go: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/orig-development/rom-aicp-3-5-kk-4-4-2r2-mako-t2632777 - enjoy!
This is the official download page, where you can get the gapps package you prefer, plus the release/latest nightly.
If you install the release you won't get the nightly updates. The nightlies are very stable, so I'd recommend the latest nightly.
I'm experiencing exactly the same problems than Blazing angel.
Bluetooth is unusable in my car, "Unfortunately, the process com.android.bluetooth has stopped" being displayed repetitively.
I suspect it's not hardware related as I do not have problem using the stock or paranoid ROMs. Unfortunately, my favorite ROMs (AOKP, CN or Carbon) are causing problems.
Do you think it's possible to pickeup some files in the paranoid files and inject them to Carbon to solve the problem ?
Thanks in advance for your help !

Thanks for sharing this ROM Paul ! :good:

Bluetooth Call Not Working

I installed GSI Roms like Pixel Experience, RR both ROMs have issue when using bluetooth call.
Tried with Skype or Whatsapp call, sound will go to phone speaker.
Bluetooth audio (non call) is fine though.
I tried to do bluetooth call from my pc using the same headset and it works normally.
Anybody having the same issue ?
Need help please
It's a massive issue with Android 9, not the Nokia 6.1 plus in particular. I'm returning my 6.1 plus tomorrow due to this problem. It cost me more than the phone to have my car's Bluetooth firmware brought up to be fully 5.0 compliant, but it made no difference.
Google completely **** the bed with Bluetooth on this release, and from what I can see online there's no fix in sight. Android die hard users are jumping ship to Apple all over the place due to this problem.
Short answer, if you want working Bluetooth calls on this device, flash an 8.1 Oreo build, then it will work.

I suspect the same thing.
I saw phhuson have bounty for GSI bluetooth call issue.
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/374
Punch your symptoms into google "android 9 bluetooth call problems" or "android 9 bluetooth car problems" and you'll get hundreds of forum listings with thousands of examples of the same or similar behaviour, usually but not always associated with a stock android device such as any android one handset, or the pixel etc... Some 3rd party builds are also affected, OnePlus and Samsung users are reporting problems.
