Not sure if this is related to 6.0 BT issues or hardware problems with the 6p but I appear to have some BT connectivity issues.
I have an Aluminum 32gb 6p, on the MDB08K build.
I'm experiencing occasional loss of connection between my Zenwatch and the phone despite going through the usual troubleshooting steps (repair, reset, factory resetting the watch, uninstalling Android Wear, etc). I believe I experienced it once with the car where BT was on but it wasn't connecting.
So far, the only way to re-establish the connection to the watch is to turn BT off and back on again.
Is anyone having trouble with this because if this is a hardware issue, I want to have it taken care of ASAP.
I have a Zenwatch 2, and my brother in law does as well. We both had trouble pairing the device to the 6p, and then it doesnt hold the connection. My phone and the Zenwatch 2 do not recognize eachother. The Zenwatch 2 recognizes other devices, but not the 6P
in an effort to consolidate the BT related issues as there seems to be a few, may I suggest that we focus our efforts on this thread:

Right after the DP5 installation, I had to unpair the phone and car (2016 Mazda) because the phone would never connect. It was no where near as easy as that sounds, took me the better part of 30 minutes because of repeated "unknown errors" coming from the car.
The phone paired up just fine but I still have frequent and completely unexplained dropouts on literally every Bluetooth device I have (headphones, Moto 360, car and the list goes on). So far this has been the absolute worst of the previews for BT that I have ever seen.
But then, if you read around here, it sounds like there were a lot of these that had flaky BT hardware. Have not exchanged mine, but that has certainly been my experience since I bought this back in December.
I have no issues with Bluetooth and the latest DP. I have my phone connected to a Kenwood deck.

I wonder if I have flaky BT hardware? Mine was a launch phone and it has worked perfectly in my Toyota since day 1. However I've recently bought a fitbit type band and with that application (veryfit 2.0) installed and connected to the band then if I make a call in car it drops the BT after about 30 seconds with an error message on screen saying 'corrupted probe message'. I can manually reconnect the call (it's still active on the phone) but after another 30 seconds or so it repeats the cycle. Have upgraded to Nougat Dev Preview NPD90G but still the same. Removing the app and its binding (it binds in the app not the phones BT devices in settings) and rebooting the phone resolves the issue. Tried again with a proper fitbit and the issue is identical.
I will RMA it to see if I get another one that works. Now to figure out how to put it back to stock marshmallow. gulp.
I have the same issue pairing to my car's Bluetooth keep pairing failed

I had this same issue, I flashed the system file again and wiped the cache and dalvik. It seems to be ok now.
Check this solution. Pair with '0000' worked for me.

Since switching from my Nexus 5 with 6.0.1 to a Nexus 6P with 7.0 I am also suffering from bluetooth issues. Pairing itself is not a problem but the connection sometimes drops, controls in my car don't work properly, remaining track time is not shown, etc. Haven't even tried to make calls yet. If I can't find a solution I'll probably be going back to 6.0.1.
The proposed '0000' solution is not working for me as I cannot change the PIN on my Seat Leon (2016). The PIN is autogenerated and shown on both displays to be confirmed upon pairing.
Has anybody tried flashing the latest 6.0.1 radio image and use it with a 7.0 system?
I've had my Z Force for about a week and a half. At first, everything was fine, but now, BT won't automatically connect to all of the trusted devices. It automatically connects to my BT speaker at work, but not the one at home or my Ford Sync.
I'd appreciate any thoughts.
Having an issue with it dropping the connection when paired with the LG Tone Platinum HBS-1100.
I have mine since Tues. Connected to 2014 Honda and Moto 360 and Moto sd 11 headphones. No issues I have noticed, especially in the car. It connects quicker and continues pandora quicker than any phone I have used previously with the car (LG G2, LG G3, Turbo 2). I will soon test with a Ford Sync 3 system, a vizio soundbar, and an ECOXGEAR speaker, and some ihome cheap headphones. Hopefully all goes well.
09 Ford with sync. Having issues as well. Don't have trusted devices set up because of the fingerprint reader, but I do have issues with automatically connecting, especially if I leave the source on Bluetooth audio when I turn the truck off. If I hit the phone button, it will usually reconnect. Don't have any issue with my moto 360 though.
I think it's a Ford sync problem. I have a 2015 fusion. Mine connects but it's delayed. Unfortunately the automotive radios are only designed for specific bt protocols. This is a problem with many car systems. My wife has the same problem with Dodge uconnect and the g5.

But mine worked fine for the first week or 2. It also is a problem with my BT speaker.
Bluetooth Connection
The same thing was happening in my Subaru, so I went into the voice settings of the moto actions app. Once there, choose "Talk to Me" and then touch more options. Once I selected the "audio troubleshooting" button, my car bluetooth problems went away instantly. Maybe something to try if you haven't?
Yeah Ford doesn't have any options like that.
So, the simple fix was to go empty the Bluetooth Share cache. Seems like a simple idea, but I had never needed to do this on any other phone.
I'd had mine a while and one day I noticed my BT wouldn't connect to my speaker at work. So I tested it on all my devices and my Bluetooth doesn't work at all. It will not find any device at all. Yes I've made sure they're all on sync, search, find, whatever the option is. I've cleared cache, tried to dig deeper to find that there are no legitimate settings or options menus, no way to troubleshoot the issue. I even thought an update would fix it as I thought it had updated just before I noticed it not working. Well it's updated again and nope. Still no Bluetooth. I've given up. And to beat all, no damn headphone jack so I gotta remember to carry around my adapter to use an aux cord.
On Bluetooth people can hear me but I cannot hear them.
I have had my Moto Z force for a while now, and all of the sudden when I connect to any Bluetooth device I cannot hear anything when it comes to phone calls. All media works, and people can hear me. I have factory reset the phone to see if this fixes it... But it did not work. Anyone else have an idea or experience this issue?
Hi, I have the same problem, suddenly after upgrading to nougat, I can not detect the wi fi and bluetooth.
Let me lower your stock:
XT1650_GRIFFIN_VERIZON_7.0_NCLS25.86-11-4_cid2_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml
But I do not know how to flash

I have the same problem too 3 days ago. It stopped working randomly. I was running Nougat with December security patch. Tried hard resetting and nothing. Now I updated to the January security patch and I still have the same problem, even after doing another hard reset. Could this be a kernel glitch or a driver issue? Bluetooth says it's on but it won't find any device and I can't pair any device to it. I hope Motorola is looking to fix this because I am from Europe and can't send the device to warranty in the US .

You can send it out, you just need a forwarding US address... You can do this if you do it with a middle-man https://www.shipito.com/ for example. might cost a little more for shipping, but it's an option that you have at least!

Thank you so much! I'll send it to warranty in the end. Moto is going to completely replace it. I'll have a Z Play to play around with meanwhile and then I'll see wich one of the 2 I'll keep.
My Moto Z has a similar issue. I got my first unit last summer and had to return/replace it because the charger melted to the phone (but that's another story). With my new phone, I constantly have trouble connecting to BT. I can almost always connect eventually, but it's NEVER on the first try. I usually have to toggle BT off and on, force stop BT, or restart my phone. So my Bluetooth isn't quite 100% useless, but it's a huge inconvenience any time I need to connect to anything.
Also fyi this is not related to the Ford issue--I'm connecting to headphones and speakers.
Bluetooth on G5
I can't connect to the handsfree on Mitsubishi Mirage
I'm having the same issue. All Bluetooth devices just quit. Headphones, Watch, Car adapter. Everything. I've reset my phone and nothing. Anyone had any success with any fix?
[Update] I think there may be something up because I mentioned it to the customer rep and they immediately said I need to send it in.

Same issue for me.
My Bluetooth is very problematic too. Whenever I connect to car device it just auto-disconnects. FIX THIS PLEASE LENOVO!!!
I have 3 main devices that I pair to my phone via bluetooth: watch/lg tone/car
The watch stays paired with no issues, but the watch is having issues swapping from the lg tones to the car and vice versa.
Anyone found a remedy for this?
As of now, I have to go into the bluetooth settings of the one I don't want to use and deselect media/phone, then go to the other and select media/phone. And even sometimes this takes multiple times to work.
My previous phone (gs7) had no issues swapping from the two.
Hi,
Did you get a solution ? I face the same problem and can't find any solution...
Just to clarify, when you are in your car and want to connect to it, the headphones are turned off, correct?
Having similar issues... Every time I try to connect to my car (stock Subaru WRX), I have to manually connect and it takes several attempts before it connects. Once it connects it usually doesn't drop though. Very frustrating...

It's not in my car but with the bluetooth device of my motorcycle helmet. The reference is ncom bluetooth kit 3. I have to connect it manually and it takes several attempts before it connects. Sometimes it doesn't connect at all....
I have 2 headset Plantronics Backbeat Pro and Plantronics Backbeat Fit. They both work flawlessly
My Huawei Watch also works.
But my Nokia 616 Car kit wont connect at all.
And my motorcycle hemlet bluetooth kit, Cardo scala rider PACKTALK, connects, but the audio is slowed down to about 80 percent?
Same thing here.
I have been facing problems with a Sony SBH52 Headset and with my Opel Corsa E, stock infotainment system.
It gives me a hard time connecting but when it does it's stable.
I had the same with my gen 1 Moto 360 but after a factory reset to the watch and a reboot it's stable.

I had the same issue with my TSX. I did some research and cleared the cache. Worked like a charm afterwards. Did not have the issue one week since doing that

Ahem, I seem to be unable to find bluetooth in my app settings. Can you please give me a hint?
It's been driving me crazy these days with my SBH-52 and I want to try this too.
Thanks!
P.S.
I'll also give it a shot with a plantronics pro headset I have to see if it does the same.
Bluetooth profiles implementations, even though they passed certification, are not always made equal! So don't end up pulling your hair if a certain BT device doesn't play nice with another.
Just as an example... Head Unit X had big issues with the initial contacts sync, right after pairing with Samsung phones (already known to sometimes play around some other standards). It would only work after several reconnects. After several weeks of debugging (poor development guys) and reproduction test (poor testing guys) it was concluded that it is a phone issue caused by some wrong timing delays in the process of exchanging information between the HU and the phone. Samsung was informed and the ticket was internally closed.
I have similar problem with Bluetooth Earbuds. Phone simple doesn't "see" the Earbuds. But strange - it can see other Bluetooth devices and other devices can see Earbuds.
I'm sure this is a OnePlus 5 software problem.
Version OxygenOS 4.5.10
i have somhow issue as urs, i have Bluetooth pad lock and android watch, it sometimes connected and sometimes not, i do believe its software issue, im on 4.5.11
Yes, it is strange. After some restarts and on/offs connection suddenly appears
I'm wondering if anyone has issues with and solutions for bluetooth connectivity problems. Specifically, constant dropouts and stuttering.
Background of problem
I recently purchased my phone, which was already on Android 10 (Build QP1A.190711.122). From the start, bluetooth has been unbearable: if I move the phone in any way, or I move the connected bluetooth device (headphones, earbuds, speakers, etc.) it stutters and cuts out momentarily. Sometimes the stuttering continues incessantly. In short, my bluetooth is useless for listening to audio, making phone calls, etc. I basically have to be next to be perfectly still and right next to the phone, and even then it may act up.
Failed troubleshooting efforts
I installed the September update, rooted the phone and tried various options many times, including:
*Hard resetting the phone
*Flashing and re-flashing the stock rom several times (even after full wipes)
*Wiping the cache in recovery
*Clearing the bluetooth cache
*Playing with the bluetooth options in Developer Options
*Unpairing and re-pairing various bluetooth devices
I'm lost and wondering if the gyroscope is messing with bluetooth connectivity in someway. I have no idea whatsoever.
Thoughts and comments appreciated.
@droctii
I have not had an issue like this, sounds like a low power/weak signal issue or interference or conflicting devices
Which sounds like this

Same here. bluetooth connectivity has rather worsened since android 10.
however the recent ota updates on android 9 have been a hit or miss since march 2019. Before that, bt was working perfectly fine.
Coming back to android 10, as an example, the link with my bose soundwear with minor exceptions had been really strong bt -wise but since the update I get even with it random disconnects, and infrequent stutter/cuts etc. The same for my sony wh1000x m3, it behaves a little better but only using sbc codec, so i stick to that. However, older devices such as my car's bt, tv soundbar or even google mini when phone's just next to it are unusable with this phone. Also, the more crowded an environment (interference-wise) more likely to experiment issues.
For comparison, all other older phones I have still work fine within same parameters
I haven't taken my PH-1 to A10 yet, but my pixel 3XL had been struggling with Bluetooth. Today is the first time it's been useable, but I made a bunch of random changes in developer options. I haven't worked out which had helped. FWIW, I'm attaching a screen shot of the settings I'm using.

A lot of Bluetooth devices don't implement the protocols properly, especially on the cheaper side. You disabled A2DP so that probably helped.
You should be able to enable A2DP but use the highest version of AVRCP available, yours seems rather low. Should work fine.

What makes you think A2DP is disabled? The hardware handoff is disabled. Not the same thing. And that is the solution to my stuttering and disconnect issues. Toggling that makes the problems come and go.
Same problem on my car with 1+7pro and android10, music is discontinued, or freezed, stuttered...
But for me line with disable bt ad2p hardware offload is greyed and swith is to left

You would be better served looking/posting in your own device forum. This is the Essential PH-1 and your software is very different.
I have had such problems with various devices and while disabling A2DP offload always solved the problem, so did playing around with the AVRCP versions.
My essential phone has been sitting on my desk for the last 3 months due to these insolvable bluetooth issues. Neither AVRCP nor A2DP solved the issues, the bluetooth is stuttering constantly when I move my phone around and not in direct sight of my receiver(s).
I tried 3 different wireless earbuds and they all suffer from random stutters or disconnects if I'm actively walking with my phone. The closer the phone is to my upper body, the better the signal is (most of the time). If I connect my phone to any Bluetooth device at home or in the car where the phone isn't moving, the connection is perfect. I've tried the different methods mentioned in this thread and nothing fixes it. I've given up and just hoping my next phone doesn't suffer from the same thing.
