Hi everyone,
I recently got my self a OP5 (coming from a Meizu PRO 5). The phone is great but I facing an annoying issue with the Bluetooth.
I have a Sony SBH20 Bluetooth headset. And everything works perfectly fine EXCEPT when someone calls me.
Every single time when I answer the call via my sbh20 I can ear and talk through it but a few seconds later the sound switch back to the phone earpiece.
But on the phone, the logo on the call app is set to the Bluetooth device.
And when I manually switch it to the phone earpiece and then going back to the Bluetooth device, the sbh20 works again. But only for couple of secs and then switch back to the phone with still the Bluetooth headset selected.
My phone is completely stock with noting fancy on it.
The phone is up to date according the present date (10/08/17).
PS : I set my phone from scratch. No migration or something like that.
Thanks you for your comments.

Anyone please?
I use a Bose Bluetooth head phones no issues while calling.
Try some other headphones!!
I had a similar issue with my OP5 connection with my car's Bluetooth. It always fails to discover car's Bluetooth after connecting to the car, and stopping and starting the car. I did some research and most of the suggestions stated the issue was with cache. I reset the cache and did not have the problem. worth a try.

I have now tried 3 different bluetooth headsets with my AT&T Tilt with Stock Rom. First was my BlueAnt V12 I used great with my RAZR then I bought a Motorola S705 now I have Sony HBH-DS980.
With the BlueAnt V12 the audio was low and tinny and couldn't hear the caller
The Motorola S705 sounded good minor choppiness but the callers couldn't hear me worth a damn. Both of these devices paired great and kept connection, only the Motorola would loose connection if I got a system alarm or if I was streaming music. For just handset operation it worked great. With the Sony it seems to be a crap shoot when they are going to work. I installed JetWare to enable Caller ID Name and Ringtone through headset and when I pair them the first time they work great all day long. However if I turn bluetooth off on the phone and then back on I have issues with disconnecting and sound not going through headset for calls.
So I installed the new Official AT&T Rom from HTC's Site the other day hoping the bluetooth improvements they made would help. I decided to try JetWare again just to see if it worked, again I started having problems again. So I hard reset and didn't install the JetWare Extensions. For the first day everything worked great. Next day I fired it up it's up to it's old tricks of disconnecting after a call.
Anyone else having these issues? My state is going to be bluetooth only while driving in about 4 months so I really need bluetooth to work.
Can you charge the sony ds980 via usb?
No it has a real strange plug for charging
Hi, I have the Sony Ds980. I've experienced similar problems in the past.
check your Bluetooth settings on the phone: communication manager --> Settings --> bluetooth. Select your device (ds-980) but don't double click on it. and then check its mode: in that window, ensure that you have checkmarks in both options (i.e, Turn on bluetooth & make sure this device is visible to other devices). Sometimes, when you restart your bluetooth headset, the second option is left unchecked, thus causing disconnections between it and the device.
another option is to trigger the headset button. sometimes, when a call comes in, I would have to do this once or twice before it connects.
I think it is a bug.
i have the Jetware extension and MSVoice, and they help with the caller ID.
HTH,
rgds, Manny
I'm trying to decided between the DS980 and the Moto S9.
I'm so tired of wasting my money on crap.
Thanks I'll have a look at those settings, I just wish JetWare uninstalled nicely
I have been running it lately without JetWare and the only issue I am having this way is the wireless stereo portion disconnects after each Incoming call it does not do this if I place a call.
With JetWare I can sometimes keep it connected no matter what the issue is it connects but when I place a test call it rings on the headset but when I answer the call it isn't comming in on the headset it is still on the phone although the call button works and ringing on the headset works. It got to be a pain to have to place a few test calls to make sure the headset was working.

Well, that does it for me. The DS980 is officially off my list.
Finally, i got my HD today. Everything is working fine, except for one thing.
I'm not able connect with my bluetooth carkit. I've tried severall things: Carkit searching my device, which was visible and device searching for carkit. Both without success
Anybody an idea what i'm doing wrong here?
This may sound like I'm being condescending, but I'm not. Have you tried turning it off and then back on? The HD has a couple of problems that are solved by a power cycle. If it still doesn't work, then is the carkit compatible with HTC's? It's not a Sony Ericsson one is it? Their Bluetooth tech isn't very pally with other devices.

What do you mean with a power cycle?
I turned the device several times off. Performed several resets. No luck. The carkit is working fine with my old HTC 3600
The Bluetooth [for phone/A2DP etc] in WM is pretty retarded when you compare it with phone manufacturers like motorola and nokia who have had it down perfect for years now - it's one of may major gripes with WM (and why I can't wait for Android, then some clever person can hopefully develop a BT interface that WORKS properly...anyway) - I've not tried to hook mine up to the car yet [will try tonight] but if it's any consolation my Diamond took a few go's to get hooked up as well (in both cars - seemed to prefer the Parrot unit though)
Just one thing - you DO have the bluetooth set so that it is visible to other devices right? (I know that may sound a bit patronising, but I have to confess to one time getting really bent out of shape trying to hook up my headphones and eventualy realising that I hadn't set the phone to visible....ahem...)
***EDIT:
Later that day....
Ok - DITTO that - just tried many many times over and my HD will NOT connect to the Parrot 3200 in my car - NOT good [haven't tried the wifes car yet as I'm just too pi55ed off right now]. This unfortunately Is a deal breaker for me and I'll have to sell it on if it wont hook up (how retarded is that, even my humble ancient motorola works perfectly in the cars!)
***Second Edit:
Just FYI/update: Soft reset - and hooked up straight away. (So if you have issues, try a soft reset)
Got my HD yesterday, was able to pair Motorola S9 BT, both in headset and A2DP and listened to podcasts via RSS HUB. Today, nothing works!!!!
Tried soft-rebooting HD and restarting headset to no avail. HELP!

Same problem here. I was able to pair my HTC Touch HD with a JVC KW-NX7000 radio/Nav. On the display of the JVC I can see the batterypower of the HTC and the signal of my provider (Vodafone). My adresbook is transferred to the JVC, I can place a call from my JVC and then I get an error. When I turn on the screen of the HD Touch HD and then place a call on my JVC everything works fine. The problem seems to be, that the screen of the phone doesn't turn on when I place a call. When I dial a number on my phone, everything works fine.
I hope that someone has an answer to these problems.
I thought the problems had to do with the JVC but now I have my doubts.
Today I removed my bluetooth-connection and tried to make a new connection between my HTC Touch HD and the JVC KW-NX7000 radio/navigation in my car. On top of the screen of the HTC I saw two icons appear. (Left from the 3G icon)
I was surprised to see everything work, even though it was just for a short period. I could place a call from my JVC, the screen on my HTC turned on, the number was dialed and I got connected. At some point 1 of the 2 icons disappeared and again I wasn't able to make any calls from my JVC. The problem has something to do with those 2 icons which (should) appear when you make a bluetooth connection. I hope that somebody can help me with my problem.
Personally I think the bluetooth is bugged. This is what I have figured out when connecting my headset.
First time I paired everything worked fine. The paring profile was correct. There are two differnt profiles matched -1st the wireless stero and 2nd Headset
So this gives me two functions after pairing - 1 = listening music on my wirless headphones and 2 = making and recieving calls through the heahphones.
This gave me two icons - 1 being headphones with music symbol (wireless stero profile) 2 being headphones with another round symbol i cant make out (for the headset profile)
After you disconnect both the phone and headset the problems start. I turn on the blueooth on phone and headset, but I only get one symbol appear and thats the second one. This means i can use to make recieve call but not listen to music.
After along time messing about i found out that if you go back into the bluetooth device profiles and remove the tick for wirless stero and save config - then go back in and re-tick and then save evething starts working again until you disconnect again
I now have to do the remove tick and add tick everytime I want to use my bluetooth headset which is annoying. Thats why im conviced there are problems, so becareful when you setup as it might be working first time but you wont know unless u check it straight away on the initial pairing

Got excactly the same problem. Tried A2DPToggle but that thoes not work on my T-HD. Hope someby knows a tool or an answer for this.
absolutely agree , bluetooth is buggy !!!
sometimes I am loosing the connection to my car , sometimes it worked fine for hours , sometimes only for minutes
if I am listening to music (ds980) and receive a call, the connection to hear music is lost after closing the call
if I have some longer calls, sometimes the connection drops
so at the moment bluetooth @ HD is absolutely not stable !
buggy BT still happening?
Had issues with Nokia E71 randomly dropping/reconecting BT ... sometimes dropping during a call ... sold it on eBay
Brought Omnia i900 - Voice over BT headset does not work ... (but now a fix has been found over at modaco.com so happy)
was seriously looking at touch HD but will not if this thread is correct as sick of paying out good $$$ and finding a must have feature is not working
Q. has a fix been found or is BT still buggy
thanks
Bluetooth Problem
I think the problem may have something to do with multi-function devices (make and receive calls + stream music) I'm having problems with my Jabra
SP700 ,pairs no problem , 2 icons in top bar , can make calls and play music. Switch off phone or Jabra and then reconnect I can only make calls, no music, even though the 2 icons are displayed in top bar. I also have a Sony Erricson external speaker and a pair of Sony headphones both of which work fine no problem. Is this something that can be fixed with updated bluetooth drivers for HD?
I'm having much fun with my new Legend, and I love android 2.1!
Everythings goes smooth except the connection with my car.
I have a pretty new Audi TT from 2008, and with my old phone (t-mobile G1), I used it without a problem for over a year.
One month ago I bought the Legend, and bluetooth connection to the car seems to hang!, Even when I disable bluetooth, the phone becomes slow, and the bluetooth icoon keeps displaying in my notification erea.
One thing works, when I reset the phone, I can use the carkit for about 10 minutes, then it starts to disconnect. The adress book never syncs.
Can people please reply if they got their legend work properly with their bluetooth car kit.
Also when other people have problems, please reply here!
Thnx
I have a mini cooper S with BT car kit.
The connection is good and all the contats are correctly transferred but sometimes the connection has been lost.
It seems it happens during the net switch (between UMTS/GSM).
Same problem here. Kenwood DDX7029 with BT. 5 out of 10 times the phone won't connect when starting the car. Dis- and enabling BT does the trick.

This implies that if you disable data-roaming, it would work all the time?, I'm gonna try that out! Thanks for your reply!
Hi there. My first post in XDA
So cool that I found this thread because I have the exact same problem. I have an Audi A3 and the bluetooth connection is 9 out of 10 times lost during conversations and then the bluetooth icon just hangs until I boot the phone.
I'm gonna try to disable the data-roaming and see whether it works.
Still problem carkit/bluetooth Legend!!
Hi all,
I still/also experience problems with my Audi A4 carkit.
Also my colleague with a Opel Insignia experiencing the same problems.
I have to reset the bluetooth or reboot the phone te fix it
It is very annoying when you loose the bluetooth connection within a call.
I have already sent a message to HTC...and still waiting!
Switching off the data roaming or fix the UMTS/GSM settings doesn't help
Somebody a sollution?

Audi UHV 6654 problems
I have a BIG problem with this car kit connection...BIG means the device is useless till now.
I've paired the Legend with my A4 factory car kit and there are several problems:
1. No sounds come from the speakers (car speakers), still the michrophone is working fine. I had to put the phone on loudspeaker to hear something but of course this is not the normal way of using a car kit
2. There is no sound till the call is actually ongoing (the other party respond)...that means no ringing, busy tone, or whatsoever sound... I don't even know if the call is made if I'm not looking to the phone (and if it's entering power saving mode, I stare at a blank screen).
I don't have any problems of this kind using a Nokia phone and also they (especially point 2) are happening with all smartphones I've tried (WinMo or Android ones).
Is there any software (even a paid one) to outcome this?
Please don't tell me to "try" this and that, I don't want to spend money "trying" things...I would appreciate if someone had a similar problem and managed to solve it somehow.
P.S The phone is brand new (got it for 2 days by now) and it is not rooted.
P.S.2 The car kit is a "basic" one, don't have navigation, contacts downloading and all that stuff...It's a plain BT car kit, I would just like to be able to make and receive phone calls with it.
Seems like many have bad experience in making the legend and car kit work together.
As of yet I could only pair my legend with my blaupunkt audio system, but they have not yet connected each other successfully to make use of the bluetooth feature. I've had no problem at all using my audio set with my samsung galaxy spica's bluetooth. So it probably is not an android issue.
Is there anyone who didn't experience any such trouble with their legend and car audio system's bluetooth ?
To add some more details...
I search for BT devices, phone finds the Audi UHV car kit. Then I'm asked for the pairing password and I enter it, than I get that "connection sound" from the car speakers but the phone is still "connecting..." endlessly. The BT icon on the phone appears but is the standard one, no headset or car kit icon appears (does it have such an icon after all?)
From here...nothing special happens. When I make or receive a call only the phone is ringing, no sounds came from the car speakers. Only when the call is connected, then I have the bord computer showing "Call..." and the radio/CD is muted...and that's all. The conversation can be heard only into the phone not from car speakers as it was the case with the ringing tone before. When call ends, music resumes.
Hello everyone, I run into a really weird problem on my Note 4 when receiving voice calls while using a bluetooth headset.
Summary:
If BT headset is not already connected before initiating or receiving a voice call, you have to press bluetooth button during the call to direct sound to phone and then back to the BT in order to get the mic on the headset to work.
More Details :
1. Incoming Voice call
2. While phone is ringing i turn on the bluetooth headset.
3. I answer the call(Either from phone or the headset)
4. I can hear the other party, but he doesn't hear me.
5. The bluetooth headset mic is not working, neither the phone's mic.
6. If i press the bluetooth icon on the phone(while in a voice call) to direct audio to phone, everything works fine.
7. If i press again to direct audio back to bluetooth headset, everything works fine.
8. If the headset is already connected to the phone before i receive the voice call everything works fine.
9. If i make a voice call (maybe cause headset is already connected?) everything works fine.
10. Problem doesn't occur if it's a VOIP call through skype viber etc.
10. Using plantronics Marque M165 & M55, I have unpaired both repaired, cleared bluetooth cache etc problem still there. Lollipop 5.0.1.
For me it's a big issue since if i have the phone in my bag/pocket i have to take it out in order to be able to use the headset, which kind of defeats the purpose.
Anyone facing this ? Any suggestions?
Sorry for the long post & thanks in advance !
Anyone?
Anyone with similar problems ? Any ideas or suggestions ???
Yes, I have a similar problem, but with my car's bluetooth (the only hands free I use). This problem started after I upgraded to Lollipop, and it worked fine in KitKat.
With te device connected to the car's bluetooth, I have to make the call in the phone's Speaker mode until the other party answers. Only then I can switch to bluetooth.
If I make the call in bluetooth mode, I won't hear the ringing through the car's speakers and even after the other party answers, we cannot communicate.
This is a serious bug. It is my 4th Samsung Galaxy phone, and the only one that doesn't work properly. My previous S4 worked perfectly and I regret profoundly having bought the Note 4.
Ironically i don't face the problem you have. Mine works fine with my car's BT but i suppose this happens because in my case the car's BT is already connected to the phone.
I suppose you have tried to repair the bluetooth/ cleared BT cache etc right ?
I've just tried the phone with a Samsung bluetooth and problem solved !....So it doesn't play well with the plantronic's BT , warning for potential buyers !
Hi all
I'm having this strange (but really frustrating) Bluetooth bug on my Motorola Moto X Style (XT1572) with Android 6.0. I already tried restoring the Phone to factory settings and without any extra apps but the issue persists. It just suddenly started happening (about a month ago).
Nothing has changed in the bluetooth devices that I use with my Phone. I connect my car using Bluetooth and if I'm not in my car, I use a Bluetooth hands free kit to make and receive my Phone calls.
About a month ago my bluetooth started acting weird. When I'm in my car and want to make a Phone call, it starts the call on my Phone but then my car says that something went wrong and the call couldn't be initiated, although the call is continued on my phone. I do receive my text messages on my car and can also sent them but I'm unable to make/receive Phone calls.
When I receive Phone calls, they don't come up on my cars media. However, my Phone says its using Bluetooth for the call and the bluetooth connection is up. When I'm having this issue, I can not disconnect the Bluetooth connection with my car on my phone. It refuses to disconnect and I can not switch to any other Bluetooth device. The same goes when I'm having the issue while connected to my other Bluetooth hands free kit. In the advanced bluetooth settings of the bluetooth connection on my Phone, I also noticed that when the issue occurs all Bluetooth functionality is checked (eg. 'Media audio'), except 'Phone audio'. 'Phone audio' is not checked and it refuses to check it (however it's not greyed out). When I tap on 'Phone audio' in order to enable it, you see it getting checked for like a few microseconds and then it instantly gets unchecked again.
The only remedy I found is to power off and start my Phone again. Very frustrating if you want to make a quick Phone call and that you have to wait 5 minutes each time or if someone is trying to reach you but they can't hear you and they keep calling back while you try to press the power off button and drive your car . Why do I even have Bluetooth .
I've noticed that when I keep my Phone powered on at night and let it charge, the issue is present. If I recharge my Phone while it's powered of, pull out the power plug and then power on the Phone, there is no issue.
It seems to me that it has something to do with the update process...
Any idea how I can solve this issue?
Previously I did had other bluetooth issues like sudden switches between the phone's speaker and the bluetooth hands free (without any clear reason), it would just switch the bluetooth audio off and on again. So imagine, I'm calling someone with my hands free kit and suddenly the sound is gone. I grab my Phone and hear the other person talking, I continue the conversation using my phone's sound, then the sound is gone again and I need to continue with my handsfree. Other times when the phone said it was using bluetooth audio, it actually wasn't and I had to select 'Phone speaker' and then bluetooth audio again to get audio via bluetooth.
I don't think it has got anything to do with my car's bluetooth or my handsfree because the handsfree works flawlessly with my laptop and the car's bluetooth also works perfect with my partners Phone.
I have the same problem as you and i've never found a solution someone could help us please
Anyone?

So basically since the December security update that was released in February? Yeah, we know... some people seems to have issues with Bluetooth since then, but some people don't, not sure exactly why. In the Lenovo support forums there is even some mention of Bluetooth issues (although they come short of admitting there is a problem) on the latest update.
If a factory reset doesn't cure it, then you just have to wait... we don't have the factory firmware images for the latest release to reflash and downgrading is a questionable solution at best. Hopefully the factory images become available or the Nougat update actually gets released and one of those fixes it.
Sorry, that's the best I have for you... which is basically nothing.
