Hi, did a search didn't seem to get any results so here goes.
Connected up to Sony head unit via BT and began to stream music, within a few seconds the audio cut off and then a second or two later came back on, this happened on every track every 10-15 seconds or so.
im using the latest froyo firmware.
anyone got any idea how to fix this? or has anyone else had these problems?
Cheers
Waz
hmm.. no problem on JH2 stock rom
i'm holding off on the BETA froyo, waiting for the full release of froyo before installing.
might be a firmware thing, or some other apps that you installed
Bluetooth streaming in BMW
I have the same problem with the stuttering. Will play for a while then stutter. Not to annoying but still a problem. I am thinking Froyo will fix it.
Froyo fixes everything. If not, Houston we have a problem...lol
Hi waz000000
Not using a head unit but a Nokia BH-500 unit with my Shure ear phones with no problems at all and all the controls on the BH-500 work on the Galaxy perfectly.

I read somewhere that some users were experiencing this issue until they tried turning off their wifi. That was their fix. Anybody wanna try?
Anyone else having problems with bluetooth on the Moto X Pure? I'm using a Verizon SIM, on 6.0 with the February 2016 patch, fully stock (although using Nova). Having to constantly power off and back the phone to get bluetooth to work with audio in mine and my wife's car (audio cutting in and out, skipping, jumbling), and with Android Wear, constant disconnects (and this is my second android wear device).
Just wondering if this is pandemic or worth wiping and giving it a fresh load. Thanks!

I sometimes have issues reconnecting to my bluetooth headset (fixed by repairing) but no issues when it is connected. And I have a moto 360 always connected that has no disconnection problems. I would go with a factory reset!

I know this is several weeks old, but yes I have this issue, and have done everything imaginable to get rid of it, to no avail.
My phone pretty reliably connects to my 360 (or, currently, Pebble), but is almost useless in my car. Fine for phone calls, but audio works 1 time out of 5 at best, otherwise it just does thta jumpy skip thing.
I initially thought it was because of Android Wear -- connecting to the watch was using too much bandwidth and interfering with the ability to talk stream audio -- but a) it's ONLY aproblem in my car (and my wife's car, so it's not JUST my car), never to, like, a standalone bluetooth speaker, and b) I completely wiped my phone and didn't install Android Wear or pear with a watch at all, and the problem resurfaced. A clean wipe almost always results in reliable bluetooth for 2 or 3 days, and then it gets jumpy, which HAS to be a clue (some state or buffer being corrupted / filled?) but I haven't been able to figure out what it's clueing me into.
This thread dives into the potential Android Wear connection, but no real solution.
If anyone who HAS experienced this figures out a solution, I'd really love to hear it.
Not sure if this applies. However, I experienced this EXACT problem when streaming music over bluetooth. This problem only happened AFTER I made or received a call. Reboot is the only cure. This is with 6.0 stock with Feb update. I tried 2 phones with the same problem. Both were new out of the box. This FW is obviously defective. I'm not sure why others aren't reporting this issue. My search for a phone continues....

I can usually toggle off Bluetooth then back on and it's okay, but sometimes it does require a restart. SUPER frustrating when you're driving! I'm glad I'm not the only one, I just wish we'd get more info on this and maybe someday a patch.
Okay so I'm gonna describe my problem as clearly as possible and will hope someone can find a fix for this.
Device: Nexus 6P
OS: Android 6.0.1 (latest vendor & security patch - June 2016)
Bluetooth devices used: Sony MDR 600BT, SOL republic tracks air, jbl synchros earphones, jbl flip 2 speaker.
1) pair earphones/speakers
2) start playing music on earphones/speakers
3) works fine on first run and when screen is off
4) when I switch on my screen to change the song the music stutters for 10 full seconds, then stuttering stops.
5) I change the song and again put screen off, works fine.
6) i put my phone in my pocket and suddenly my phone audio stops skipping??? Wtf???
7) so I change my pocket and put it in my hoodie pocket. (Nearer to earphones - maybe distance is the problem I thought)
8) audio still skips............:crying:
9) put my screen on to change song, audio starts stuttering again like crazy and then stops.
10) I request anyone here to heed this request and tell me how to workaround this problem
Currently running latest android MM 6.0.1 and no improvement .....:crying:
I don't understand one thing - top of the line flagship device and still these problems? Not getting value for my hard earned money. This is wrong.
I tried it with my iPod and it works like a charm. No stutters. No skips. Nothing.
Tried different Bluetooth headphones too in case my Sony earphones were the problem. NO IMPROVEMENT SAME PROBLEM PERSISTS.
TRIED USING IT ON ANY BLUETOOTH SPEAKER THE ABOVE THINGS KEEP HAPPENING AND I AM GETTING REALLY ANNOYED WITH THIS PHONE WHEN IT COMES TO BLUETOOTH.
I'm sorry for agonizing so much. But I hope you'll can understand my problem. And hopefully there's a fix somewhere in the world.
I am having the same issue, and my searches came up with this:

Is this a Play Music issue? I don't have these issues, but I don't use Play Music. usually stream through YouTube or something like that instead. Works on BT Headset and Sony BT head unit in my car.

I can't speak for Zapjack12345, but I notice it with PowerAmp, Pandora, Spotify, YouTube, basically any app that is pushing audio through bluetooth. Audio is fine when the screen is off, but as soon as I pick up the phone, and turn it on to check notifications, things get screwy with the audio
Strange. I just checked with Pandora, YouTube, and IheartRadio and all seem fine with screen off and turning it on, using the pulldown menu, or changing songs. I'm using a cheap set of bluetooth earbuds from Amazon (no-name brand), and am stock with the phone, not rooted (yet) and on June updates. Phone was purchased in May new from Best Buy.
Same issue for me as well. I'm specifically using Amazon and Pandora most of the time. Its very annoying. On Chroma and franco kernel.
What rom are you using? This has been a well documented CM rom issue so any rom that uses CM as a base will and has had this issue since mid-January. Stock and AOSP based roms dont have this issue (from what I've seen and tried).
I'm currently using the 6/15 nightly for OMNIrom and do not have these issues.
As a sidenote, this was also an issue with Android N Dev Preview 2.

I'm currently on Pure Nexus 5/6/16. Nothing out of the ordinary installed. Tried clearing the Bluetooth cache, as the issue I am noticing was similar to issues that the Samsung S5 was having, but there was no difference.
I am going to look to go back to stock and see what happens, but looking at what OP posted, it looks like they're on stock, and having the same issue.
I am about to throw my phone in the sea. BT seems like it's getting worse and worse with each update. Cmon Google/Huawei. Don't make me lose faith.

I had a little less issues when using the Dev Preview 3 but there was another issue that arised that I hope gets fixed.
If you're using bluetooth when driving around when you lose signal or drop/gain data connection the audio skips for a quick second. Through past testing I've done working with kernel devs on 2 phones, the issue is related to how the hotplugging works for the cores. If only one core is running when the connection drops there is an issue with how the cpu ramps up and/or turns on another core to handle the workload. I thought this regression was pretty interesting seeing as one the things they were boasting about at the Google conference was how android would fix slow downs and issues when losing/gaining network connectivity with N. Hopefully it'll be fixed before final release.

You and me both. I am on my 3rd 6P and my BT problems are still the same. If the BT problems were only effecting one particular device I could understand but my Microsoft band, BT earbuds and car all seem to disconnect continuously on a bare/stock phone.
Okay guys. I changed my ROM from Resurrection Remix to Paranoid Android and this issue has been solved. Thank you so much for all your help and answers!
Does anyone else have any updates regarding this issue? Literally wanted to throw my phone out of the window during the morning commute.

Don't use cm based roms

Yep, this is 100% the reason. It is a CM issue. AOSP roms like Paranoid Android and Pure Nexus don't have this issue. I love Resurrection Remix, but this is starting to bug me. I may jump to PA rom soon...

Thanks. Was about to ask this question. It is a CM issue.
I have had issues with BT dropping randomly in my car on 2 different 6P's. No rhyme or reason, and it doesn't happen often, but annoying when it does. Happened on MM and DP4 currently.
On the flip side, my audio quality went down on my S7E over BT when my smartwatch was connected. Somehow, that doesn't happen with the 6P meaning I can keep my watch on in the car, so I am happy.
Hey, I just found this thread and surprised it took me this long considering I've been having this issue since I got my phone in November.
My 64gb 6P was stock until earlier this week, when I finally rooted and flashed xposed. The issue stopped the day I rooted my phone, and I was thrilled.
After reinstalling most of my apps and getting back into my routine, the problem came back. I've tried booting my phone into safe mode several times before rooting so I'm fairly confident the issue doesn't exist because of a specific app interaction, but I can't figure out what it is to save my life. I might backup again and restore to the backup I made right after rooting to see if I can narrow down the problem.
Other than that, I am very new to this stuff and honestly just thrilled to have found other people having the same issue.
I only experience the problem while connected to my car (2015 Chevy Cruze), and not any other bluetooth device.
Let me know if you guys find/have found anything I suppose?
I kinda have up on trying to narrow down the issue. I tried PureNexus, Paranoid Android, I tried different kernels, different cases. Still kept skipping and jumping, no matter how far, or close it was to my Bluetooth device (car stereo, speakers, home audio system). I went back to stock, no root, no Xposed, pure and simple Android, and I have not had a single issue, it's beautiful.
Having an issue with the Bluetooth on this phone. When streaming music to a stock head unit (no navigation) on a 2015 Mitsubishi Lancer, the songs speed up for about a half second, every 30-40 seconds. It's not skipping, pausing or anything like that, it's actually speeding up the temp and pitch.
An S7 Edge doesn't do this with the same head unit, but the user was not happy with the S7E.
I haven't tested with other devices (but I will shortly), because she only listens to music in the car.
Anybody else see this issue? Thanks!
Same issue here. Happens in my car, with my shower speaker, and with my portable speaker
(UE Boom 2). It is incredibly frustrating and has been an issue with my phone for a while. Really miss my note7.

have you done a factory reset?
I know my bluetooth earbuds did this sometimes. It happened after trying to skip a song.. If youre not rooted, try a factory reset or see if your phone has an update? If you are rooted. Id wipe youre phone through TWRP and reflash your rom to see if that helps.
OK, so the phone isn't rooted (and never will be) and a factory reset is completely off the table. I do believe that it is either fixed or worked around, I switched the music player to PowerAMP 3.0 Beta latest build and it seems to be completely gone.
i also have this same issue when bluetoothing to my car. i still havnt found a fix/workaround for it. had this issue with stock ROM/and now the custom ROM so hopefully a update will fix it.
I've had this issue in 2 of 3 places that I've paired up.
1) Dodge Durango - Music from any app is basically unlistenable. I get about 10 seconds of music, then a bunch of stuttering, then about 10 seconds of music.....
2) Samsung Soundbar - Same description as above, but only when more than 5 feet from the soundbar. BT should be at least 30feet good in an open room, right? Yeah, not for me.
3) Jawbone Jambox - Everythign works fine here from everywhere in my condo. Separate, rooms, no problem. Weird.
So yeah.. Not sure if it's a BT buffer thing, but I certainly can't find any settings that might make any difference.
SUCKS
Same problem here. 2017 F250 Sync 3. Before I rooted it would randomly drop the bluetooth connection. Seems a little worse now that I am rooted running the stock Rom. Thinking maybe I should try an ASOP rom?
I do not have this issue or dropped connections. I do, however, get a 3-4 lag between the sound and the mouth movement on screen. It only happens with my LG V20 and my previous phone LG Nexus 5X. Before that I had a Huawei Nexus 6P that worked perfect.

I have a 2016 F150 with Sync 3 verizon 2.2 with Android Auto and I never had bluetooth issues until I rooted my V20 with Verizon. I also was having bluetooth issues with my Android Wear watch after rooting, it would randomly disconnect and never connect again until rebooting the phone. What fixed it for me was flashing the modStock kernel, I am currently on the WETA rom and everything is perfect.

So I wiped my phone and loaded the MegaROM. It's much better. Not perfect. So I believe most of the issue are likely software. Again stock the phone had significant issues. My old V10 rooted never missed a beat on this truck.
Bluetooth can always have random problems pop up unexpectedly. Aside from the occasional glitch here and there, I havent had any major bluetooth issues on t mobile stock Rom or on WETA (which I'm currently on)
My V20 never connects to my car bluetooth automatically, and doing it manually every time is driving me insane. I'll try rooting and flashing some ROMs tonight to see if that solves the issue.
Anyone having stutter issues with bluetooth? Playing through my echo dot and just 10 feet away it's super choppy. Even from 3 feet I was having issues. Anyone have any ideas? I'm about to use it in my Kia soul (2012) tomorrow and already worried it won't work there. The audio issue right now is so bad it's not even usable. It chops up for a second every 10 or fifteen seconds.
Also, my WiFi signal strength is much lower than my nexus 6p. Anyone else have lower WiFi strength?
This happened to myself also... albeit intermittently. However it also happened more on my S7 with my car stereo. Usually skipping a song/waiting 10 seconds fixes it. I thought it was my phone, but now I'm not so sure. Just something I just learned to deal with when it happens. Any one find a fix?

I use poweramp. It has settings for buffer length and audio priority. I haven't really played with them much but it could solve your problem.

I don't think that will work with Spotify unfortunately.

Definitely a problem - there is a large (unhelpful) thread over on the Samsung support site too called "Galaxy S8 Bluetooth Connection" (I'm not allowed to post links here yet)
A moderator claimed it's been reported to Samsung but no updates on the status for 2 weeks from him now. Restarting, clearing cache, factory resetting seem to only temporarily help.

New moderator jumped on and blamed the problem on the other devices not being Bluetooth 5.0. So apparently the S8 is not backward compatible with EVERY SINGLE BLUETOOTH DEVICE EVER MADE. Fun!
I am getting bluetooth audio stuttering issues when the FitBit app is installed, and the FitBit battery drains incredibly quickly. When I uninstall the FitBit app everything is fine. All other devices work fine with FitBit, it's only the S8 that's having this weird issue. Any status on a fix???
