CM13 G900F Bluetooth problem - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello.
I flashed Cyanogenmod 13 two days ago. When I connect to my BT speaker it has lag, loss, skipping. The problem is more notable when I am streaming radio on WiFi and less on mobile data. When I am using the phone the problem is bigger especially when trying to see BT menu.
Some minor problems that I experience is that I can't answer calls with home button?!?
WiFi drained the battery yesterday and the phone was warm. After restart it went OK.
I guess I should forget about heart rate sensor on this phone but CM13 is so much faster than stock rom that I want to stay on it. Also the notifications now are working correctly. On my touchwiz all were staying on phone no matter checked and cleared from PC (skype, messenger, gmail, etc.) The BT problem is my biggest one.

I'm sure I've read it's a common issue with CM and Bluetooth at the moment. Personally never tried CM on this device yet because of its limitations like no MHL support.

Thanks. Actually I did a mistake upgrading to the last nigtly while thinking there is a snapshot before. Anyways it should come.

*Music issues thread*

I thought I would start a thread for those experiencing music play-back issues.
I get 'skipping' when playing back music, but the really annoying thing is that sometimes it does not occur at all. This means I cannot, by process of elimination, determine what the cause is. Today I listened to an album with no problems at all, but last night the same album was skipping very badly - so file type cannot be to blame (it was AAC anyway).
If anyone else is having similar problems, please post and detail your phone model and network.
I have the graphite model on Orange. I have alerted HTC tech support to this problem and am awaiting a response.
Thanks.
Well, I still get intermittant skipping during the beginning of tracks! This is VERY frustrating, especially as I cannot pin down the reason and some people on here seem to have no problems at all. So my music player is effectively useless. I hope the update addresses this issue, but something tells me it won't...
Sorry but I have no problems at all really. Maybe a bit of hiss at the very lowest volumes but other than that I have happily replaced my ipod touch

I get the same problem, but only when i listen to one song and it changes to the next. If i select another song theirs no skipping.

Exactly the same here, does anyone out there have a clue why this is happening?
I have this problem too - Hero on Orange in the UK.
I have stuttering with BT playback and also the 'stretching' problem where a track goes off-key, like a dying 1980's walkman. Have tried turning off Wifi/Mobile/GPS but still occurs. Is better if the phone is 12 inches away from the BT headphones, but that kind of sucks.
Are you using bluetooth?
I found that having wifi turned on while using bluetooth caused stuttering, and this was fixed by turning off the wifi.
There are a variety of different issues you may encounter. For those having stuttering issues at the start of a track, are you using the stock SD card supplied with the phone? I think that is only a class 2 SD card, which provides a lower transfer rate which some people think can hobble things - particularly if you have other SD things going on like apps2sd and swapper. I have a 16GB class 6 card installed and haven't noticed any stuttering.
Cutting other background tasks such as Twitter (or at least dialling it back from an update every 5 minutes) may help things.
YMMV.
I've had a few Heroes now and only my most recent one had a stutter problem. The apps and settings were set to be the same on each phone. The MP3s were the same on the same card. I have no idea why one phone would have problems like that when the others didn't.
Happily, I applied the latest Rom and based on listening to half an hour of music last night it seems to be fine now.
Everything works better with this ROM it seems so look forward to release / get flashing.
I can confirm that since installing the Modaco update ROM, I no longer experience skipping/interferance. I have not listened to a large amount of music so it's early days, but things are looking good!
For people's information, I have a class 6 16gb card and yet I still used to get problems. So I think SD cards are not the source of the problem - especially since the update appears to have cured the problem.
Thanks.
I get stuttering and tempo changes over bluetooth using 2.73.405.5 (MCR 2.0), ie. the latest 'official' ROM, AFAIK.
Mid-tune stuttering seems to be down to weak BT transmission, i.e. if I turn my head to the left whilst cycling, I get stutter, if I look forward, it's OK. If I have the handset in one pocket (nearest the BT headphone receiver) no stutter, if I have the handset in the other pocket, I get lots of stutter.
All of this with BT headphones that worked flawlessly with my iPhone 2G...
Hope this gets resolved soon (are you reading HTC?) or the phone going back to Orange for a Nokia N900
I had major stuttering at the start of almost every track with the original ROM. Although as for the OP sometimes it would be fine. Usually it was resolved by a reboot, but not always.
The latest ROM is a lot better (I have installed Generic 2.73.405.5, not MoDaCo's Customer ROM).
There is still occasional stuttering at the start of tracks though when the phone has been on for a long time and I have been making phone calls (the Phone and People apps do not seem to ever shut down once they have been opened - maybe this is the cause), but a reboot now ALWAYS solves it.
Syncing apps also cause a tiny stutter so tweak your apps like Peep etc so as not to be syncing every few minutes.
So, HTC have gotten some of the way there, but they could still improve things from here. Let's hope the next update sorts it (although we're still waiting for 2.73.405.5 to be officially released so who knows when the next one will be?)

General Stability- What is your experience?

What is your general experience regarding stability with the T-Mobile hd2?
Mine so far has been lack luster. I love the phone, I just wish it was actually stable. My experience thus far has been-
Hangs at lock screen about 2-3 times per day
Texting occasionally lags heavily..
Music app has frozen once
1-2 times per day won't respond after returning lock mode, requires reset.
All the problems I have can be resolved by turning it off and on. So far, I've found myself resetting the phone 4-5 times per day. Anyone having the same experience? Any tips? It's been frustrating. Such an awesome phone, but sometimes it just locks up for no reason and I can't even make a phone call.

I've found it pretty stable. I have no problems... just as stable, if not more, than any of my previous WM devices. It'll lock up occasionally when I'm experiment with certain apps or settings, but never on normal usage.
Before I flashed to a custom ROM I had all kinds of problems with the phone. It was laggy and was almost unusable. After flashing to a custom ROM all those problems went away. Now I haven't had any problems with the phone and it is very stable now. I would recommend you flashing to a custom ROM if you haven't done so already.
Coming from an HD, I have been using custom ROMs for over a year. However, I haven't yet flashed a custom ROM on my HD2 simply because I have yet to find any problem with the stock ROM (mainly since it's completely up to date and the cooks are using it as their base). So far, I've had only one...maybe two freezes. I'll definitely start flashing custom ROMs once there's an update to manila, but till then, I'll prolly stick with this one (or until i get bored).
(Also, I am a very heavy user, so I'm pleased with just one freeze a week.)
Using stock rom, occasionally using Task Manager to kill something that's sucking CPU, but otherwise very stable. Only hit sleep-of-death twice so far, and rebooted only couple times to fix extreme lag from something unkillable and hidden.
Using my own 8GB SDHC class 6 (instead of crappy 16GB class 2) to cut down battery drain, and using only external GPS. Lots of registry tweaks to turn on power-management, and using BsB Tweaks.
Besides Opera 10 constantly screwing up virtual, runs mostly fine with Garmin Mobile XT, Google Maps, iGo8, Navizon (wow!).
No Problems, What a fine piece of Hardware.

Hello all,
I have had great stability out of this phone thus far. Only problem I had was a cab that I installed gummed things up for a while, uninstalled it and soft reset and all was good again.
Like any phone, if your going to tweak it or install cabs, do one at a time. Then test the results. See how it effects your phone.
Most of the complaints you hear are unfortunately from people that really don't know what their doing or dont do the research before doing stuff and just dive in installing everything they can get there hands on, and then the end up complaining in the end, giving a phone a bad rap.
Just my 2 "Sense".

[Q] Bluetooth stutter

Just got my Note 3 a few hours ago, on the drive home, I slapped in my microSD card from my other phone which had my music collection. Paired to my bluetooth stereo in my car and started playing my tunes. Im experiencing random stutters that last for half a second and it just continues playing. I also noticed theat watching video, thers random hiccups just like the stutter on bluetooth. Tried playing through the phones speakers, it happens too.
Is this normal? Should I have it replaced? Or are there tweaks that should be done?
TY
edit:
Forgot to mention its a quadcore snapdragon version
ps. will rooting this break the knox fuse?
I've noticed similar stuttering when listening to music on my bluetooth headphones. It doesn't happen often and only lasts a second but it is regular and it is annoying.
Can't be a range thing, phone is in my breast pocket and the headphones are, obviously, on my head. Never had this issue with my Galaxy Nexus.
Good to know I'm not the only one. Might have to wait for a fix for it then.
Hope others can test this out too so maybe we can check if its a very isolated case and have our units replaced asap.
Note 3 Bluetooth Music streaming Stutter
I used 'Rocket Player' from Play Store instead of Samsung 'Music' or Google 'Play Music', the stutter seems to disappear.
I suspect is the .m4a music format.
let me know if this work for you too !
I tried Rocket player and the problem is still there, though Id like to believe that is much better compared to stock.
Video seems fine now as I blame the media that was playing that caused the stutter.
Can anyone who has rooted their phone, and removed the bloat, test it out if their bluetooth streaming stutters?
TY
I have the stutter too.
On top of that, it doesn't auto-connect to paired devices.
When I was with my S3, it would automatically connect to the car bluetooth without issue. The Note 3 doesn't connect automatically although told to do so. On top of that, it sometimes (randomly) only connects media audio and not media AND phone.
I usually have to tell it to connect several times until it finally does. The S3 didn't have any of these issues.
Seems bluetooth overall needs some fixes.

My device is rooted, and the bloatware are all removed.
I noticed that the bluetooth stutters even before and after rooting. My phone had been reset to factory once I have rooted to ensure a clean start.
Today i noticed something. When the screen is on, and you're doing something, there is no stutter. When the screen is off, the stutter starts. This is most likely the cpu. 300mhz isn't able to handle the music. I raised the minimum cpu frequency to 400mhz, and it was better. So basically, it could be down to the govenor or the cpu unable to handle the music at the minimum frequency. It could also be a bug.
I guess we'll have to wait for an official fix then. Thought rooting would have solved it.
I have this same issue since I upgraded from the S3 to the Note 3 using a Sony DSXS310BTX. Audio seems to cut off several times during the song. The song itself continues to play. Kind of aggravated to have this problem on a new device when it was not there on the previous.
Hi,did you update the latest Firmware?just released today.
I have the newest firmware and it still stutters. Any progress?
Same problem here, even with the new firmware. In addition right after a stutter there is a +/- 15% pitching of the streamed audio. Extremly unpleaseant on music playback.
But I found out, that for me this problem only excist if the phone screen is off.
I've noticed some issues having both bluetooth and wifi on at the same time. If I turn one off, the other works perfectly. Not cool, Samsung.
I do notice I get less stutter with WiFi turned off, but it is still there.
Damn, and I thought the Note 3 would be my next phone. This is a deal breaker, I spend all day with music playing from my current phone via bluetooth headphones.
I can confirm that by turning off all unnecessary services that the Bluetooth audio stuttering is gone. I had the exact same problems as the rest of you. When I got my S9005, the first thing I did was stream audio to my car's Bluetooth radio, and it was awful. Skipping/pausing/stuttering, the whole works.
I then set about disabling virtually every unnecessary app and service that came bundled with my GN3, and then went for a 3-hour car ride yesterday and streamed audio the whole time, and there was absolutely zero stuttering. Not even once. And I had WiFi enabled at the same time as well, and I never updated my firmware. So, that's the good news!
The bad news? Unfortunately, I don't know which app(s) or service(s) that I disabled eliminated the Bluetooth audio stuttering. It could be KNOX or the indexing service, or one of the various S apps, or maybe all of them, some of them, or something else. I just don't know. Your best bet would be to go through and start disabling the apps/services one by one (I also used Titanium Backup to disable some of the ones that are restricted) until you find out which one(s) are related to the Bluetooth audio stuttering.
2013 I'm guessing was jellybean?
Just updated my phone to lollipop 5.0 and get missing/stuttering/skipping.
Got it in kitkat 4.4.2 and thought lollipop should have fixed it?
It's not as bad but it's still as annoying as hell.
headset is BT 4.0,I have another headset that's 3.0 and I'm sure it doesn't happen with that headset(testing).
Phone is stock and unrooted and also waiting for the 5.1.1 update so I cannot alter the cpu which I heard was the problem?
But why no problem with my 3.0 headset?
It's also a bit weird,sat at my desk skipping doesn't seem to be that big a problem but when phone is in my pocket and I'm walking to work it's a problem?
phone to headset is the same distance apart.
It's like using an old mobile cd player,skip city.
Any known solutions or something?
I started to get the Bluetooth stuttering a few weeks ago, and it drove me nuts! I'm on lollipop, and even though my fix might not be the fix for you, the thing that did it for me was that stupid beam service that comes with our phones. I didn't even know about it until I factory reset, and went through each apk, one by one, until I fixed my issue.
delete:
/system/app/beamservice/beamservice.apk
and
the updated apk in /data/app/com.../....
(obviously you need root to do this...)
Hope this helps someone. I listen to music A LOT, and it made me so pissed that something as simple as streaming music couldn't even stream properly!
Spoke too soon. Rebooted and Google Services Framework updated and the stuttering came back. I removed every extra APK, totally debloated the system. It has to be something that Google updates because before Google Services/apps get updated, bluetooth is totally fine. After = stuttering.

[Q] Galaxy S5 + bluetooth cuts out during music playback?

I recently got a Galaxy S5 about a month ago and have been using LG Tones hbs730. While listening to music, whether it's streaming or on my device, it cuts out for a second or so. Sometimes it happens a lot at once and really kills the vibe. It almost sounds as if I was listening to music with aux headphones and I unplugged half way then plugged back in.. I have replaced the bluetooth with the HBS800's and the problem still persists. My Galaxy S4 did NOT do this. Any suggestions? I have tried just about everything. Thanks!!
Same problem with LG Tones HBS-750 fixed - sort of

I had the same issue with my AT&T S5 GM-900A and an LG HBS-750 bluetooth headset. Found the problem starts when the screen goes to sleep. I installed ScreenON just now and set it to the dimmest level. No more skipping. Unfortunately the screen does stay on, but it's a workaround. :fingers-crossed:
Just search the Google Play store for Screen ON

Yeah it's a common s5 problem. Put your phone in recovery and clear your cache that should fix it.

I just cleared the cache on my phone and rebooted. Using the stock music player, the music plays fine through the headset until the screen goes to sleep. Then it starts cutting out almost instantly. If I enable ScreenOn so it doesn't go to sleep or have it in daydream mode while charging, the music plays fine. Do you know of anything else we could try?

If you're rooted you can try installing Viper4Android, I think it has an option to disable Bluetooth low power mode which might be the problem.
Tapped It!
According to the update's bug fix list, this bug was supposedly fixed in the 4.4.4 update. But since that update, my bluetooth audio cuts out just as much, if not more. Wiping the cache partition doesn't help at all.
Is there another thread that discusses this that's more recent and has more than three people addressing it? (i.e. since the 4.4.4 update)

I've just switched from a sony Z1 to the s5 and noticed this issue with bluetooth in my car.
The Z1 was rock solid in the same car via bluetooth.
It seems the s5 gets drop outs when then screen is off for a while and i presume it turns some of the CPU cores off or something?
I have a g900F, there isn't a 4.4.4 firmware out for it yet? The Z1 was running 4.4.4 though and was OK.
i'm so happy that i'm not aline, not for you of course. Did someone find a solution? i also have the lg 730, and i also have sony z1, but i really can't use the 730 with z1, it was awful, and also have problem with the screen, so my phone company give me the s5, and i was happy , but i still have problems with bluetooth. Some tied another headhones?.
It is confime that the problem is because Bluetooth power?

I've got no idea what's the cause of this behaviour. However I pretty much tried every solution attempt that I could find on the net, except for rooting or custom ROM. Nothing has brought a solution for me, not even close actually. All actions taken seem to have no effect at all on the audio stuttering. Meanwhile my two brothers can play their music my home theater (which is what I'm trying to do) without a single hiccup for hours. It makes me think it must have something to do with a deeper problem. Bluetooth low power seems at least more likely to me than any other possibility, although that's highly speculative on my part.
I have been trying to get bluetooth audio from my phone to my home theater to work ever since I got this phone. It seems such a mundane task to me, yet Samsung seems to fail to fix this issue and I'm actually getting seriously pissed off at that.
When I contact Samsung support they seem to think this is a problem that is just on my phone and actually suggest to hard reset my phone and all that nonsense.
Meanwhile I updated to Android 5, the official version, but no change in this stuttering behaviour what so ever. And actually, audio to my home theater is one of the main purposes of this phone for me. The fact that I haven't been able to do that for many months now, well... That's a f**** sad situation.
And on top of all that, with the 5.0 update, I now get about 5 hours on a full charge (was getting at least 15 hours on 4.4.4). But that's another thread, I know.

i came here with good news for me, at least. After triying lots of things, installing programas and unintalling them and Reading a lot i read somo post with the same problem of us. But in that post they focus the problem not in the bluetooth but in the cpu. They claim that the worst (because may be more tan one) proble is the cpu profiles to save battery. So tire with the bluetooth path i follow this new one. After some test (with tasker) i change my cpu governor from interactive to performance and almost solve the problem, i have a little jump now and them, but nothing too anoying. I need more testin because having the cpu governor in performance all the time kill my battery too fast. But at least i can hear music again with my belove LG-730.

Well.. There's no changing the cpu governor without rooting.
A little jump now and then is still unacceptable for me. This phone is a cpu powerhouse so regardless of cpu governance or scheduling, this should work without any jump or cut out at all.
Are you sure it's not a coincidence that your situation has improved? I mean, with the cpu in power saving mode, normal audio playback without bluetooth should be pretty much equally problematic as playback with bluetooth. I've never had an issue with music cutting out without bluetooth usage.
I'm not sure of anything, at this moment i'm testing this, and without doing any other change i improve the quality to a level where i can use bluetooth again. Before i have between 3 and 5 jumps per song, and not little ones. Now one every hours or more and i thinks this ones are from other things, like gps and some programas that affect or bluettoth o music. From hear i'm not sure what to test next beside cpu, this one was my last bet before leaving bluettoth for ever. So any advice are welcome.

You shouldn't hear any jump at all, even when you are using the phone for other actions as well. Quad core CPU and 2gb memory really is far more than you should need to do all those things. For example, one of my brothers has a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini. When he connects his phone to my home theater he can play music, lookup soccer results, read the news, ... All that without any jump what so ever. Obviously that's the way it should work.
I still got a laptop with a Pentium 3 550Mhz, 512mb memory, win2000, .... It's able to do all these things and it's almost 15 years old. There simply is no excuse.
For what i read is not a hardware problem it's the saving battery profile for the cpu. So you have the hardware but android tell the cpu to go veryyyyyy slow so you save battery

Yah, you're probably right about the cause. But does that really matter, we're speculating anyway. The fact that ancient devices do this better than this modern device I'm using now is just pathetic.
yep you are right, its pathetic.

Mine does it even with the battery saver turned off. Makes no difference.

Android Pie Bugs

As promised by Nokia, all the Nokia 6.1 Plus users got the Android Pie Update at the end of October. I feel like the update was rushed and even though they had the Beta Labs for the Android Pie, it still consists of many bugs. Not sure if there are any other bugs other than the ones I'm listing but here are the major ones:
Battery drainage is comparatively more
The fast charging is not working. It takes 3 full hours for full charge. Also it no longer charges upto 50% in 30 minutes.
There are issues with the WiFi where it won't connect to any network until you restart the device.
Bluetooth switches on its own, randomly.
Fingerprint recognition is significantly slower.
The launcher (Quickstep) freezes or even crashes if you uninstall an app from the home screen. Also it freezes occasionally when you use the navigation to switch between apps.
Please list down other bugs that you've had, if any, down below. Also if anyone knows when is Nokia most likely to push an update for fixing these bugs, do let me know since the November security update already came without any fixes.
UPDATE:
Nokia pushed a new update last night. I'm hoping it contains fixes to the numerous bugs.
Frame rate drop on WhatsApp video calls . Don't see frame rate dropping on duo , Skype or any other app . Now I don't know who should be fixing this nokia / Google or whatsapp.
Fingerprints is not working in third party apps like AppLock.Casting is also not working. When I playing games touch is not working properly.So,these are the bugs after updating with pie.
Drainage of battery is also very fast..
Launcher3 crash when you don't have it as a default launcher and try to tap on recent apps. Scrolling left and right works, but as soon as you choose an app or try to click on Clear All, it crashes and takes you back to home screen.
For the battery drainage, with Adaptive Battery turned on, mine is almost equal to that on Oreo.
It does tell that it's fast charging, though it takes around 1 hour and 45 minutes charge fully, compared to 1 hour 30 minutes on Oreo.
Wi-Fi works fine for me, no issues.
I have my Bluetooth always turned on for my band, and it works just fine.
For Fingerprint Recognition, yeah, it feels slow. My Mi A1 is much faster at that.
I had some other issues with the device's lock screen acting super weird. I've set up Google's Face Unlock, and the built-in fingerprint, with a pattern. Sometimes it doesn't actually lock with power button press, and the lock sound comes much later. At that time, it would not unlock either with face or fingerprint, and even the pattern won't work. It occurs rarely, though.
I'm having some issues during calls, I don't know if it's hardware or software, but my mic doesn't work on calls sometimes. I have read on other forums that this is happening for many users of this phone.
Lock the phone and scan the fingerprint, repeat this continuously for 3-4 times. The phone gets hanged.
Also, sometimes, the screen starts flashing randomly and erroneously. Haven't been able to find out the exact reason for this.
Hi
Bro same are problems with my device.
But not with my friend's device
I want to ask whether it is the inbuilt problem of WiFi or software bugs?
I was so annoyed that I had planned to sell this phone .

Better request service centre to revert back to Oreo.....i visit there yesterday & successfully revert back to Oreo. Now my 6.1 plus is working flowless.
Bluetooth HD audio AAC doesn't seem to work, judging by the developer options.
Although admittedly, I've never used this on oreo and I know my headphones supports AAC because it worked with another device before.
Is it possible to revert back to Oreo?
When I'm on a call, and if a notification is received, the notification sound is of the battery charging sound. Very weird

You can using ost with bl unlocked
pie bugs
1. watsapp video call lags
2. battery draining too fast
3. phone slow down the performance when battery below 10%
4. phone lags usually
5.charging slowly
6. hiding notch not covering full notch
7. wifi issue
Pie Bugs for me:
--WIFI connecting but no internet. Restarting the device everytime is not a good solution. To make sure that WiFi works fine thereafter I do not toggle the WiFi OFF ever.
--"Ok Google" voice activation not working. Neither able to retrain my voice.
--Battery drain is atleast 10% higher over a period of 8 hours in idle mode.
--Fingerprint unlock has become extremely slow.
--Random freeze while trying to unlock using fingerprint scanner. The screen refuses to turn on even when power button is pressed. This happens for almost 5 to 10 minutes till finally the screen turns on.

Take backup on laptop/desktop, your phone will be just like box pack.

I ordered one phone for my wife and now I start regretting reading about all these problems after Pie update (the phone is not here yet). I was planning to stop updating it from Oreo, any way to do it or once it gets set and WIFI on it will start updating itself ? Interesting that in your case it works, do you think that they changed OTA so new updates gets a newer fixed version ?
