Dear All,
I own a Renault Laguna III (nov 2010) and run the Android NAND version of Cotulla (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893620). Earlier versions of android (none NAND) caused the same issue being:
After connecting the bleutooth carkit I have no sound at all! Even when deleting the device from the list in my Car the sound is gone.....
The language switches to English and all radiostations are gone. It could be a bug in the SW of the car audio device but when running windows I had no issue.
Does anybody faced the same issue?
Please help me out!
Harmen
hello,
I own the same car and also noticed that the radiosat from Renault isn't very compatible with android based phones. (I have got a SGS2 at the moment)
The connection sucks big time and reloads every 1-2 minutes so the sounds stops for 5 seconds and reconnects, but in the end it doesn't work at all.
I have got the ICS android update about a week ago and it makes no difference.
BUT, I found out that when you launch the connection, go to, settings, apps, running, and tick bluetooth, you can stop the Pbap services and then it works like a charm. But you have to do that every time you restart the bluetooth on the phone of after every reboot of the phone.
I hope this helps a little bit. I am still looking for some better options but this is the best I found out.

So, I have been looking on the forum for 3 days know commenting on all forums with questions regarding BT. Now I do know that BT on WP7 does not allow to transfer files. I also know that Headsets are able to connect, however.... my phones does not allow it for some reason.
Like the title says I really need Handsfree for my daily life.
My phone does not find my headset, it just keeps searching. I kept it next to each other for 1 hour.... after a hour still searching...
I know Bluetooth is on the Update list when it comes to the next step in cracking WP7, but allot of you guys use BT with a headset, any other have this problem? How do you fix this problem?
I heard it might have something to do with the Radio, that correct?
Please guys help me out!
I'm using a Parrot carkit on BT and that works just fine. The Parrot (that's nothing more than a headset) shows up in my BT devices and I can make the connection. I'm using the 'default' DFT WP7. Exept from a terrible battery usage, WP7 works magic !
I use sony ericsson bluetooth HBH IV835. Never been any problem at all.

I have the same problem. One guy said that his bluetooth started working when he flashed the Moon Light Rom, I flashed it and it still did not work for me. I use magldr 1.3 and the 1.12.50 radio. I am now back on the original DFT Rom.
I've run WP7 for only a day and managed to connect it to my Nokia CK7. I took much longer than normal to pair but it worked in the end. Whilst this doesn't really help at least you know it is possible to achieve.
The primary reason taken WP7 off my phone is that I NEED my database apps (currently Handbase) plus the traffic data from google maps.
For the brief period I was using WP7 I was really impressed but for some reason I never managed to dual boot it with Android as I kept loosing the Android partition. I certain this was my fault but having spent more than two hours reformatting the SD card as per the tutorials on here I gave up and flashed back to 6.5/Android.
Have a stock unrooted N4 running the new 4,4,3.
Updated to 4,4,3 solely in the hope it would solve the bluetooth disconnects experienced. Note I did not have 'stuttering' or the like, just solid disconnects which would then auto reconnect in 30-60 sec unfortunately stopping my music app which would then need to be restarted and since I primarily use the BT on my bike or motorcycle it is obviously a pain ....
!!!!!!!!!!!! the update not only has not stopped the disconnects it has now introduced stuttering on occasion (not all the time) ....
Here's where I am at:
1. Live with it until Google finally realizes IT'S A PHONE not a camera or whatever and solves the BT problem or gets the BT folks to do it. (really can't believe they can't solve this or is it just an N4 problem?)
2. Root the phone, install TiBU, backup, wipe and install 4.4.3 factory images, reroot and recover stuff from TiBU ... all this in the hope the BT problem goes away ... chances of this?????
3. Give up and install CM which people say does not have this BT problem ... true??????
Thanks in advance to all for your help and opinions ..........
Could it be
Could it be the BT device itself? Does it work like a charm with other devices?

That's a great question and I am sorry I did not include the info in my original post ... the problem is evident with several different BT devices and these same BT devices work fine connected to other things ..... but not with the N4

Has it always been stock? Perhaps your BT adapter in the device is faulty itself. I've ran two different headsets off of mine in the past year as well as connected to my PC and other phones with no issues at all. I've been rooted running beanstock right from day 1 though..

Yup ... always stock ... when new on whatever version was current then (can't remember) did not have this problem and BT worked fine ........ when they went to the 'low power' BT solution it started.
Was really hoping this update would solve the disconnect problem.
Hi and sorry if i do not found such a topic in some discussion. I tried to search but didn´t found it yet.
My problem is that i have a new Yotaphone 2 YD201 with latest update (as far as i know) 1.1.124 , which i got OTA.
And i´m not sure if this was happening also before the update, cause i didn´t tested it before with Android 4.4.
The problem:
If i set up a call or got a call and talking some times over my bluetooth headset, the colleagues asked me that i sound like under water.
Sometimes it happens within minutes, sometimes longer...
If i switch to the mobile phones microphone everything is working correct instantly.
I tried several bluetooth headsets, which are working well on other android phones.
Then I tried the soundrecorder SW which is on the device and found out, that the bluetooth sound isn´t recorded well, means it´s very dull and quiet.
If i put my voice directly to the mobiles microphone (although bluetooth headset is still connected), the recorded sound is louder but still far away from a good quality.
But it doesn´t change, if the bluetooth headset is switched off and the soundrecorder is used directly without bluetooth headset. Still very dull and quiet.
Can anybody please test this with his Yotaphone 2 YD201 to check if only my phone has a problem, although i do not believe that it is a HW topic.
Is there some known issue or bug regarding this topic and has somebody any idea how to overcome this problem, cause without using a bluetooth headset, the phone is unaúsable at all for me.
Thx and nice evening
Cheers
neo
Meanwhile i contacted the Yotaphone Support and there was a very fast answer.
Problem is known by Developers. They are working on a fix and keep me updated.
So, lets see if and what will ever happen...

Hi Neo,
I have the same probem with my Yotaphone 2.
I bought the new Bose QC30 Bluetooth, the sound is very bad for my contact.
I found something working : plug the headset Jack, and then test to phone by bluetooth.
if the jack is plugged when the bluetooth mode is selected (before or during the call), the microphone from the bluetooth is good.
if you unplug the jack during the call in bluetooth mode, the microphone is operating yet properly.
Why ???
same problem here
hi everyone,
is there any update on this issue? sadly cant use my headset anymore.
thx, luke
Isn't there a solution just above?!

Hi, thx for all the feedback- I also tried this CN Radio + the topic with the audio jack but none of them are real workarounds.
It seems that the CN -Radio brings some other issues for me, like unstable LTE connections + problems with SRVCC (switch from LTE to 3G/2G) in some handover situations. These problems were not available before.
So i installed the RU stock again and sorry to say it- sell the phone - It´s a nice phone and for people who do not need the bluetooth headset nearly the complete day- its a very good phone, with a great idea.
By the way- the support from Yota was quite good and they tried to help me as well as they confirmed the bug is known by the developer, but this help that much at the moment- so i´m back with my P9000 now...
Have fun with the mobile and appreciate the ideas of Yota devices...
Cheers
Neo
I seem to also have this issue on the EU version. Is it a matter of the antenna? I've ordered one of those cheap 3.5mm jack antennas to try out.
The odd thing is that bluetooth audio is fine with both speakers and a headset, from a variety of distances. I don't understand why the microphone is affected.

I would be interested in how you did that, my gf is getting upset as she can't use her bluetooth handfree set while driving... she has the yd206 model, build EU 1.1.124, i already thought of installing RU buil then ota update to 1.1.134, but i wonder if this would change anything.
Thanks.
any news?
YD206 model too
Hi, I have a YD206 model and same problem with the mic with bluetooth.
I am not sure if I had this problem with Kit Kat, but as I am using bluetooth in my car everyday for my job, I think that problem was from my recently Lollipop update.
bluetooth mic: any news?
Hello, I have the same issue with YD201. Phone calls over my car's integrated bluetooth sound fine to me but the people I speak with say I sound like I am in a pipe or underwater.
Has anyone found a fix?
Thank you!
YD201
Android version: 6.0.1
Baseband version: s01_003_4240_RU1_M05
I did a factory reset on my Android 6.0.1 and the problem seems to have gone away. I did try other radio firmwares before which was a wasted effort.
