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.
Hi fellow xda'ers
I got the 4.3 OTA today for my Nexus 4 and the problem of stuttering bluetooth audio persists for me.
This is in reference to the bug described here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39633
I also unpaired my phone and re-paired it but still facing the same problem.
So, just wanted to ask around...
1. Is anyone still facing this same bluetooth audio bug like me in Android 4.3?
2. Can anyone who had this bug in 4.2.2 confirm that it got resolved for them in Android 4.3?
Thanks..

Worked fine for me in 4.2.2 .... now in 4.3 LOTS of stutter and occasional drops. Very annoying and probably related to the change of Bluetooth in 4.3 ... hope someone comes up with a fix, otherwise I'll need to go back to 4.2.2 as I use Bluetooth for music lots. Anyone that can help ... ??
I was excited to see that as soon as I upgraded from 4.2.2 to 4.3 my bluetooth streaming worked flawlessly in my car for a 2 hour drive into the mountains. However, a couple days later the stuttering came back, just as you described.
This was the one thing I was looking forward to for 4.3 but it looks like we've been let down.

Odd, I also have a Clarion stereo. I'll be curious to try it out in another car with a different brand of stereo to see if it may just be that our phones don't play well with Clarion...

I'm not really sure, what's happening.
I tried earlier on with Poweramp Player (third party app) and Google Play Music, I had stuttering in both the apps.
Then I decided to unpair the phone/stereo, change the phone name and then re-pair. Just wanted a fresh start..
After that, I had the stuttering problem whenever I used Poweramp player. The problem happens within 5-7 min. However, when I use Google Play Music, it seems to work fine. However, I haven't tested it for long. Maybe 1 hour max, so can't say if my hypothesis is correct but I'm keeping my fingers crossed. After 7 months with this phone, I really need to get Bluetooth working.

I'm in the same boat. But I really am wondering if looking at the software/apps used is the wrong method. I've been doing the same thing. Over the past 7 months I've tried various ROMs, kernels, radios etc. and nothing changes it. I've talked about it with various friends with Nexus 4's and none of them seem to have any issues.
At this point my money is on the Clarion stereo being the issue but I still have not tested the phone with another stereo. This weekend we are visiting my parents. I will try using the phone with the bluetooth on my Mom's 2013 4Runner and my Dad's 2010 F150 to see if I can replicate the problem. If it works with both their cars then I will be in the market for a new stereo. :laugh:

If N4 continues to have problems with the Clarion stereo, it could be easier for me to sell the N4 and get another phone, unfortunately a non-Nexus one

It seems the problem is with our Clarion car stereo indeed. A lot of Clarion stereos have bluetooth issues:
http://www.fixya.com/support/t12082313-bluetooth_audio_streaming_breaks_up
http://community.crutchfield.com/car_audio_and_video/f/27/receivers/t/22006/clarion-cx501-bluetooth
Phones like iPhone 4, Lumia 920 and Moto Razr also seem to have these problems.
My stereo CX501 doesn't have any bluetooth firmware upgrade too. Though, they have provided some firmware update for some other stereos like NX501 and so on. So you should check out on their site for a firmware upgrade.
http://www.clarion.com/us/en/support/compatibility/bluetooth/index.html
I really think you're right. I tried streaming music through my girlfriend's car stereo last night and had absolutely no issues. I've also read the threads you linked to as well as a few others and the consensus is that Clarion keeps trying to pin the blame on the phones and not their receivers. Looks like it's time to change stereos...

You should at least check if there is a firmware upgrade available for you on Clarion's support site before spending on a new stereo.
Unfortunately, it's not available for my stereo CX501.
I have stuttering too on both my A2DP devices. Both are cheap: one is from DX, th eother is from a local 'dollar store' (where it was 10 euro or so).
The one from the dollar store seems to work fine after pairing, but not when connecting again.
The one from DX (z nice plug for the aux in of the car, with a mic and henadsfree speakers through the car audio) seems to stop stuttering after a few minutes. The audio level is a lot better with 4.3.
But no difference in stuttering beween 4.2.2 and 4.3.
Problems remain
I have found no improvement with my Nexus 7 with Android 4.3. I get stuttering every minute or so. I've done a bit of reading and found that Bluetooth is hellishly complex - and would be very difficult to debug. For instance to set up audio streaming, both devices need to agree on a codec to use. There is a default base level codec. As I have found that the issue is worse on some bluetooth receivers than others, I can only guess that the issue relates to Android's selection of a codec or other parameter on some devices. I certainly have no issue with any device streaming from my windows laptop (no matter how busy it is).
I have the exact same issues with bluetooth stuttering.
Using 4.2.2 PACman rom on my Note 2 with a Sony MW600 bluetooth adapter, the audio would switch off for a second every minute or so, whether using Google Play music or PowerAmp, but it seemed to happen less on the former.
Updating to 4.3 has made it worse, the audio now switches off for at least 5 seconds to the point where i have to check if the phone or app has crashed each time.
I never had an issue with the Revolution HD rom (I think its called?) but I believe that's mostly stock?
It kinda feels like the bluetooth can't handle the bandwidth depending on the size of the file. I think there's less stuttering on lower quality files - could just be in my head though.
I have a Galaxy S3 i747 running latest 4.3 CM10 rom. My audio stuttering actually got worse when upgrading from 4.2.2. Using platronics 903+ and a bluetooth stereo unit for my motorycle helmet.
Very disappointed. My work iPhone doesnt skip a beat.
Hello all,
I have tried Googling but a working solution hasn't come up for me yet. Ever since getting my S7 Edge in April I've had issues getting AVRCP to work correctly with in car head unit.
It's an Alpine CDE-133BT (actually, I have two of them both with the same problem) supporting AVRCP v1.3 and it worked perfectly on my old HTC One M8 and HTC One X before it (makes me wonder why I ever changed to a Samsung). I've tried clearing the cache as described everywhere online but no luck and I'm getting bored of keep having to manually control my music on my phone. Not only is it dangerous, but also highly irritating.
The only 'control' I can get it work is Pause/Play but only once I have manually started music playing on Google Play Music. Forward and Back don't work, and I certainly can't get any metadata.
I was hoping that Samsung would have fixed this by now; clearly not.
Any advise?
Dave.
Forgot to add; I also hear some loud 'clicking' sounds when listening to something quiet at high volumes.
Anybody?

did you try updating the software on your alpine, it may not recognize the marshmellow.
I have a 2012 VW Golf and AVRCP works perfectly fine on my end. I don't think it's the phone. Possibly try repairing the phone and make sure to hit allow when the phone prompts you to, to allow your car access to contacts, music, etc... when pairing it.

My understanding was the AVRCP was a standard protocol; not unique in anyway to the different versions of OS. My old HTC One M8 had Marshmallow on it towards the end of it's life and it worked fine.
While Alpine do provide updates; the mechanism for applying them appears to be very buggy and almost unusable as I have tried it in the past.

What version of AVRCP does your car support? The reason I ask is because I borrowed an almost brand new Mazda3 towards the end of last week and AVRCP worked perfectly; but the car supported AVRCP 1.4 (possibly higher - I was able to browse track lists).
Is it possible that AVRCP 1.3 is broken? I'm not alone in this issue after months of Googling; and I have tried all of that previously multiple times but thanks for the suggestion.

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

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.

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.

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...

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.

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.

Hello there,
some of you probably know Android has a problem with Bluetooth audio quality when there is another device for example a watch or other wearables connected.
The s8 was one of few phones which solved that problem for me, because enabling the dual audio function would allow higher bitrates on sbc. However after the last update which included the security patch from August the problem reoccurred.
Is there any place where I can trustfully download the old version of firmware eg the July update? I would like to try if that really caused the problem because the changelogs are not giving it away. I have been searching endlessly and I have come to the point where I would actually pay for it...

you cant download that portion of the firmware that im aware of as it has to do with the bluetooth stack overflow which goes into far more than just the audio eq portion of the software. Have you gone into developer options to look at the options there?

Im talking about the firmware from the July 2019 update. I wasnt planning on changing only the BT stack.
Yes I have been in the Developer options, but changing stuff there doesnt change anything. There have been topics on this on reddit and also a youtube video which shows the difference betweeen dual audio on and off...
obviously they changed something in the august 2019 update without noting it in the changelog.
The thing is: it seems its pratically impossible to download official firmware from samsung other than the newest one. its so frustrating, but i dont wanna give my credit card to these shady websites, they dont even accept paypal...

you can only notice the difference when using bluetooth audio with for example a fitness tracker connected at the same time.
