Hi everyone,
I picked up my GSIII yesterday (SGH-I747, Bell version from Canada). The phone is a champ, but so far I found fairly serious problem. My car has bluetooth phone functions built in. I paired the phone with it, and it pairs just fine. I can receive and make calls from the car just fine as well, but there is no incoming or outgoing audio. When connected to my car's bluetooth, there is no audio going through my car's speakers or through the phone. It is only when I grab the phone and unclick the "bluetooth headset" button that I can talk on the phone. If I turn "bluetooth headset" back on, there is no sound again. My car worked with my old Blackberry 8330, so the car is fine. It's a 2009 Mercedes-Benz B200, fully loaded, Canadian spec. It has the AUDIO 20 system built in.
My phone specs are as follows:
-stock ROM, not rooted or anything (do we have root yet?)
-Baseband: I747MVLLE8
-Build: IMM76D-I747MVLLE8
The GSII seemed to have the same problem when it came out and it was fixed with a firmware update (http://samsunggalaxysforums.com/showthread.php/5212-Speaker-and-mic-problem-when-calling-someone.)
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
Did u by any chance turned down the volume on the phone?

after pairing did you go into the bluetooth setting for the paired device (car) and check the "call audio" box?

Nope, I checked the volume and everything is turned up the way it's supposed to be.

Yep. It's checked. Moreover, if I uncheck it, the car doesn't connect to the phone.
I'll check my calling this morning, but yesterday I had streaming audio via bluetooth (audible playing a book). The only thing I noticed was that, unlike my old myTouch 4g running CM7, the book didn't stop playing when I turned the car off. That's something I'll have to work out.
EDIT - it's only audible that gives me a problem - looks like a specific app issue.
I'll l have to check if my calls work. All my music and podcast work good. They stop when the car turns off and starts up again when I start the car the next day.
Edit: Just tried it out and incoming and outgoing call sounds work great. No issues here.

I have absolutely no issues with incoming and outgoing calls through Bluetooth in my car. Also, I have no issues playing music through Bluetooth. Possibly try a factory reset on your phone and try again...
It sounds like all your cars support A2DP for playing music. Mine doesn't, it just acts as an old-school bluetooth headset. Can that make a difference?
Mine plays perfectly using Googles Play Music streaming service, also calls work fine, too. This is on my Dodge's U-Connect.
Update: I tried with an old jawbone headset to see if it's a general Bluetooth problem or just specific to my car. The jawbone works like a charm, so it's not a problem with Bluetooth versions or anything like that. But I did notice something interesting: in the Bluetooth options in the gs3 the jawbone comes up with a picture of a phone handset beside it whereas the car has a picture of headphones. I think that's the problem: the phone recognized the wrong Bluetooth profile. I can't seem to delete th car off the list of Bluetooth devices. This is rreally irritating. Any suggestions (short of a total reset)? Thanks!
You might see if there's an update for your car's Bluetooth... if so that might fix your issue.

No go so far. I'll have to try a reset, otherwise wait for an update or some custom ROMs.
Update: I still haven't done the reset, but I went to the Mercedes dealer today. They told me (after almost a day of investigating) that Germany said that the GSIII is forever incompatible with the B200. I think that's pretty dumb because the problem is clearly software, but the dealer seems to be washing its hands of this matter.
Last night, I tried pairing up my GS4 in my car (which has bluetooth) and although I sync'd it and verified the settings on the GS4, for some reason no audio will play (both calls & music).
Is anyone else having this problem? I've paired my car to a couple bluetooth devices and this is the first time it's not working.
I havent made any calls yet, but Pandora was working fine for me yesterday.

There are indeed some issues with Bluetooth and I'm not sure who's to blame, or maybe both parties.
I have a 2013 Subaru wrx and it will pair fine, but sometimes it only pairs "Media" and sometimes it pairs media and phone calling functions.
Also, it will NOT pair automatically. I have to go in to the Bluetooth settings on the device and manually click on the Subaru car media, wait 5-10 seconds, then it pairs.
My galaxy nexus always worked like a charm, shame.
I have used Pandora and also made/received calls over Bluetooth without any issues. Always connects automatically a few seconds after my car starts. 2012 Honda Civic
I have had bluetooth issues as well with my pioneer 6100bt headunit. It would only auto connect to phone audio, it was driving me crazy. As a temporary solution i downloaded a free app called Bluetooth Auto Connect. It's free and you need to mark the checkbox setting: Auto Connect every time the screen goes on. Hope this helps you out

I am having the same issue. My phone portion will autoconnect and I have to go back in and check the media box everytime. I have unpaired and paired it back again and the same issue. Every single time I connect I have to recheck that box.
Edit: Sony DSXS310BTX is the deck I have. Worked 100% fine with my GS3.

I have the same issue; phone works great, media not so much. it's not a huge deal, because i use the phone part more anyway, but still...
Wow thought it was only me that had this problem, I have to manually select the audio portion all the time as well. What gives!?
And I'm having the opposite issue - media pairs 90% of the time, phone doesn't. And, it will NOT autoconnect.
How is it convenient that I hop in the car, drive away and phone doesn't connect. Instead I have to get the phone out, open up the BT menu and manually connect while I'm driving - real safety feature there Samsung lol

Hello All,
Galaxy S4 user x1 month and I absolutely love it!
I'm installing an aftermarket stereo head unit in my car, with bluetooth (Kenwood KDC-X896). I chose this head unit for the reviews and sirius-xm and a few other options available on it. http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Car_Entertainment/2012_Car_Entertainment/KDC-X896
Along with the install of the head unit, I am installing a Rocketfish Bluetooth Receiver with apt-X capability. The reason I'm installing the Rocketfish Bluetooth is to make use of the apt-X on the Samsung Galaxy S4. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Rocketf...11138&ref=39&loc=01&CJPID=6149808#tab=reviews
The plan is to pair my phone with the Rocketfish play my music collection off my Samsung Galaxy S4 through the bluetooth Rocketfish (using apt-X) which is power-sourced to the car battery (switched) and plugged into the Kenwood head unit's AUX plug. This should provide brilliant sound from my phone through the car speakers.
QUESTIONS
1. Since the Kenwood head unit has bluetooth functionality as well, do you foresee any interference or issues with music playing through my phone?
2. Is it possible to pair the phone to the Kenwood head unit (to use phone via car speakers) IN ADDITION TO the Rocketfish (for music)?
3. If number 2 doesn't work, is it possible to go through the Rocketfish for audio and then switch to bluetooth on the Kenwood head unit for incoming calls?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
I guess it depends on the profiles offered by the Kenwood. My setup is to connect to the BMW inbuilt Bluetooth hands free, connect to an aptX Samsung receiver with a headphones out port plugged into the aux port of the car audio. When I get a call, it switches to the hands free automatically

Check out an app called sound about. You can choose what device different audio uses. For example you have media to be played through head unit and phone calls through you're other bluetooth device

Hi, thanks so much for a fast response! It sounds like what you're doing with your BMW is similar to what I'm wondering if my new setup can do.
A few questions:
1. The headphones out port you refer to - is this from the aptX Samsung receiver to the aux on your car audio head unit? (That's what I'm hoping to do with my Rockefish device). (Or are you referring to your headphones out port from your phone to the aux on your car audio?)
2. What kind of aptX Samsung receiver do you have in your car? (Can you post a link?) Is it similar to the Rocketfish?
3. Are you using specific apps on you phone to help in this situation, or is it as easy as it sounds?
Thanks again!

1. The former. Headphones out port from the apt x receiver to the head unit. The phone has nothing physically attached
2. HS3000. Google brings up loads of results for it.
3. No specific apps. Just regular bluetooth, with Play Music running .
I do love the phone and despite there are very few minor details i would love to be changed by LG (if any update), i have realized something. You know there are some devices that when you are nearby, and if your bluetooth is on and already has paired with that device before, the device connects automatically to the paired device.
I have a bluetooth FM transmitter in my car; eventhought i did pair with it, after turning off and then turning on my bluetooth, i didnt see it got automatically connected. Could it be that LG didn't implemented that feature, thus, making us go to bluetooth settings everytime we want to pair with it again?
I haven't had that trouble yet. It pairs whenever I am near anything I have paired with it.

I mean, is not that it wont allow me to connect. it does connect to the device and it is already paired, but for things such as a bluetooth in the car to be able to do it automatically, well, it doesnt do it automatically, when i turn on the bluetooth it does appear a floating box to select which one do you want to connect, regardless of whether the device is already paired or not. (Maybe it is a good thing ?) I mean, i activated the smart lock and i choosed that when im inside the car with the bluetooth on and paired to my car's bluetooth it will remains unlocked even when i turn off the screen
I hop into my car start the car couple seconds later my device is paired. I don't touch anything other than putting it in my car dock.

And no. I tried to unpair and pair again and see, but it doesnt connect automatically even though it is paired. I also tried to unplug and plug the bluetooth once again but it didnt connect automatically. Which leads me to the following questions: What lockscreens and securities have you implemented on your device? such as: finger print, patter, pin, google voice, face unlock , etc.. ?
I have knock on and fingerprint on. I have voice, and all my Bluetooth devices as trusted.

Maybe i have way too many methods at the same time, i have knock knock, fingerprint, google voice, and pattern? maybe one of them is not allowing the bluetooth to connect because you need to activate some option?
P.S: On the other hand, my computer gets connected in milliseconds .
No idea but it sounds like something between your phone and your car.

This box is giving you a choice of what to connect to? This doesn't sound like an issue to me but expected behavior. Somewhere in one of the threads is a photo someone else posted that sounds vaguely like this. Chances are, you've given your phone more than one choice of things to connect to and it's asking what to do.

Yes. It does. However, my samsung galaxy s4 and LG G3 connect automatically to the bluetooth >> "Perhaps is because im using custom roms in all of them, :silly: .
The 'automatically connect' thing isn't dependent on the phone. its determined by the device you're trying to connect to it. Generally a peripheral will be the one initiating the connect, not the phone. For instance, for a car stero, the car stereo turns on and if the bluetooth mode is what turns on first (as in, you had bluetooth mode on when you turned the car off, so when the car is started it defaults to the bluetooth mode) then the radio sends a signal to the 'last paired device' and initiates the connection. Same thing for BT Headphones. If they were already paired to the phone before the headphones were turned off, then when they turn back on, they try to initiate the connection with that last paired device/phone. You can easily test this by simply hopping into your car with everything paired and playing music. Then, you turn the phone off and turn it back on. The connection usually never re-establishes because the phone usually never initiates anything unless explicitly told to by the user. This is a security feature... You dont want your phone actively trying to make connections with things that it 'thinks' is safe when they may really not be.
Now if you perform the same experiment backwards, where you turn the car/stereo off instead of the phone, then turn the car/stereo back on, you'll see it automatically try to connect. This is because its safer for a 'dumby' device like headphones and stereos to broadcast its existence since it contains zero personal info. Even the stereos that ask to sync your contacts. Because every time you connect the phone it resyncs. and most stereos delete their info once the connection is broken and so many seconds/minutes pass by.
So, more than likely, its your fm transmitter that's at fault. your bluetooth fm transmitter might be using an older bluetooth standard which may not function properly with the newer standards implemented in the V20. Ya need to remember that the Bluetooth radio in the V20 is special. Its not your every day BT. There is only one other phone in existence right now that is like it, and that's the G5. It supports a whole slue of different codecs at insanely higher bitrates. Because its either the fm transmitter's BT tech is too outdated for newer standards/codecs, or it isn't set to auto re-connect anymore somehow.

It really just depends though. the LG V20 and LG G5 use Qualcomm's special BT chip which allows for "Aptx HD" audio streaming along with some other very high bitrate codecs. So it could be an issue with the FM Transmitter not being compatible with this and thus the V20 just goes 'nope, i dont want you'. While it also depends on the type of BT the transmitter is using. If its using 2.0 it may just not play nice with 4.2. Even though BT is supposed to be backwards compatible and all that jaz, it doesn't mean that 'every thing' is actually compatible sadly... what i'd do, is search "aptx HD" into google. there is what amounts to a 'product page' for it by qualcomm. it lets you see all the devices that are compatible. So once you're there, I'd have a gander at their FM Transmitters. there was I think 2 or 3 there when I looked yesterday. I did alot of research into this thing the past few days cause I'm getting the V20 and thinking about getting the LG Tone headphones that support aptx HD
I just bought the LG V20 and noticed the same thing... BUT instead of going over what BT devices didn't auto connect (none of them auto-connected), I just tried restarting the phone (power off, wait 10 seconds, and turned back on) and now it is automatically connecting to my old Jawbone headset. I have not tested it with my other BT devices that weren't auto-connecting before I restarted (I'll probably go back out to my car tonight to test it). I will report back if they still don't auto-connect.
Update (Fix): I don't think it was the restart, but I got it to work. I had to go into BT settings for each device, and make sure they all were enabled for "call audio". If "call audio" was not enabled, my devices would not auto-connect. I have now tested this with three of my BT devices, and they all auto-connect as long as "call audio" is enabled (media audio setting doesn't matter):
Jawbone Era
Flexsmart x3 BT FM Transmitter
Artic BT Stereo Headset
All of these devices are a few years old and two are ultra inexpensive, so no ultra high-end tech here.
I have not tested to see if I try to use my headset for calls with my BT FM transmitter for media while both having the "call audio" enabled. I hope this is not an issue. I usually listen to the news on my phone through the car's radio, and if I get a phone call I turn on my BT headset. My FM transmitter's mic sucks, so I have to use the BT headset when in the car. I will check this out tomorrow.

If you haven't done that yet: Delete Bluetooth pairing form both the phone and your car's stereo. Pair them again, but make sure to check for any dialog boxes which may ask for your permission to some feature. It could also be that your car's stereo needs a firmware update from your car's manufacturer.
Did all that. Now I am gonna try oreo and see if that helps.
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
One more thing to try. Go to Settings/Location, hit the 3 dot menu (scanning) and disable Bluetooth Scanning. Go back to the BT menu on the phone, delete the pairing if you haven't already, then try to pair again before jumping to Oreo (unless you just want Oreo). It should work and Phone/Media/Contacts should all be checked.
It's not an Essential problem, per se, just funky BT that is more problematic on Pioneer units for some reason.

Try rename your essential phone with a shorter name. It works for me after changing name to a shorter one.
Is working fine here on my 2015 Mazda 3.
I got the same problems. my iPhone and Nexus 6p work flawlessly, the essential connects but after a while it either disconnects or goes to (no media). Re-pairing doesn't work and reconnect either since the essential thinks is connected.

Seems to be better for now on stock essential firmware, it did run spotty, turning on and off a few times, but seems to have stabilized for now. Battery efficiency is noticeably worse, but it does warn about that when turning Bluetooth battery optimization off.
Never mind, it broke connectivity after a couple of hours, doesn't really fix it permanently.
