My (Snooper) sat nav with hands-free function pairs perfectly with my other 3 phones and my G2 pairs with my Tom Tom 720 but not with the Snooper AVN730. I've been told I need a software update or patch, but where do I find this please?

Who told you that you need a software update/patch? If you are on a 2.73.xxx firmware for the G2, you have the latest version for the phone, so perhaps they are talking about a patch for the Snooper?

Suggested by the company where I bought/had fitted the Snooper & by T-Mobile!
Hmm - what else might be causing the problem? I've been told it's because Bluetooth versions change when new equipment come out, though the Snooper is only a couple of months old too.
I found my way to this site by searching solutions to this problem and apparently someone else got a patch for the G2 phone which sorted the problem out (they had some other sat nav though).
I'll have a go at searching from the Snooper side too but if anyone can suggest other solutions I'd be grateful

my plantronics320 which i have used on 3 other phones does not seem to work with my TYTNII... wtf! it dosnt even detect it.
Came across your post while looking for help with my 590A
Hi DirtAddsHP,
I came across your post while scanning for help with a problem with my Plantronics 590A BT Stereo Headset. My phone (ATT 8525, WM6) detects and sets up my headset, but if I turn off my phone, or my headset, no longer sees it or connects when I turn them back on. I have to delete the profile and recreate it every time I want to use the headset. I wonder if our problems are related?
Plantronics tells me there is some issue with HTC devices and the way they handle BT. When I pressed them, they said it was a "known problem," and that it wasn't at their end. (Interesting that it isn't mentioned anywhere on their website, or KB, FAQs, or anywhere in their product descriptions.)
I'll post anything I find that might be helpful on this thread. Will you do the same? Good Luck!

If you really have a TyTN II then please refer to the Kaiser thread.
What Rom are you using? Might be a Bluetooth software glitch.

its a at&t tilt.. and i have no idea what a rom is
Hi DirtAddsHP and sdemon,
its a at&t tilt.. and i have no idea what a rom is
DirtAddsHP: the "Tilt" is ATT's version of the TyTN II, and "ROM" is how we refer to the version of the OS and batched apps that the phone runs on. When you got your Tilt, it already had a ROM from ATT flashed onto it. The version information can be found by looking in the "settings" menu in the "system" tab, and tapping "Device Information."
sdemon: I will move my question into the Kaiser forums, as my 8525 was stolen from me on Sunday.
ATT let me upgrade to the Tilt, which was less than buying a new 8525.

ah ok it says 1.57.502.2 and ROM date is 8/25/07
It's paired but it seems like the connection drops in and out, it won't let me make a call.
Hero was working perfectly....ideas?
mine works perfectly in my car, on my head set and my stereo headset
yes, that is a software issue mostly, should be fixed with the next firmware update..
try to play with the settings also.

i updated mine, maybe that's the fix you're looking for
Can anyone else verify that it didn't work before the update? I might just go a few days without hands free in the car and monitor the s-off thread in development.
Gonna go play with it some more too...will report

I can almost guarantee whoever is rooting this thing shifted their focus to the latest update.
Whatever version is settled upon w/o another OTA will be our rooted firmware. You're ok to update.
Sprint probably had the updates rollout like to throw the developers off anyway.
What kind of car? I have an Infiniti G37, and my Hero would not work after the 2.1 update. I'm hoping the E3D works fine.
hope this works ok in my new truck..ill be mad since my old phone im replacing restarts everytime i connect via bt
Chevy Cruze, the bluetooth wasn't working again this morning on my way to work. I haven't accepted the OTA updates yet. Also this is not a user error, its a connection issues with the phone itself. The phone is paired but will not keep a connection with the car.
Still debating OTA updates...
Edit: My hero worked in the Cruze with Aosp 2.2 and 2.3.4 - I didn't have the car before then.
@op, do you have WiFi on?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
No, WiFi was off.
I tried with WiFi on...no difference. Anyone else driving a cruze that can confirm this happened before but not after the OTA?
Thanks

Do your contacts sync over to your car?
I bought an Evo 3D and now my contacts won't sync over bluetooth to my car! This sucks, I need this essential feature to work or I'll have to return this phone. Dialing from my car is much easier than dialing from the phone. My contacts synced just fine over bluetooth to my car with my old Evo.
The Evo 3D will connect to my car over bluetooth and can act work in "phone audio" mode, but how come the contacts won't sync like before?
Does anyone know if this is an issue caused by the new OTA? Unfortunately, I updated my phone so I could watch Green Hornet.
First of all, could you guys please list as below to clarify the issue. Thanks
1.What is the Rom version or Model of the phone you have use?
2.Car model Brand/ Year / model
3.Which car kit model? Original from the Car or install from car shop?
Im running the Malaysk ROM for RK3188 on my Eonon GA5153F
Since flashing the Malaysk ROM my bluetooth settings keep reverting to default, carkit device name etc.
Even if I manage to change them and even hold the settings for a coupe of boots on rare occasions they always revert to carkit and the default pin.
This problem has repeated over 2 versions of the ROM and posting in the Malaysk RK3188 thread brought nothing useful in the way of info.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions how to sort this out, its very annoying and I desperately need bluetooth handsfree back for work purposes.
Dont know if its relevant - I also have the GA5153F and although everything was fine with Malaysks 4.4. ROM - when i updated to his 5.1 version - bluetooth did not work until I changed the bluetooth adapter in Factory Settings to the non "b" version (same model number) since then it works great.
Yep, youll get nothing with the wrong adapter set.
Unfortunately this is a different fault.
Anybody?
I know others have suffered this problem, doesnt anyone have any other suggestions?

Im sure it is, but it doesnt help solve the real fault with the kit Ive already purchased, fitted, and seriously need to function as I regularly need to take calls when driving, Im a courier.
Frankly I didnt have any call quality issues when it was working, its the total lack of function thats a bit of an issue!
Is this a hardware fault? Is it a Rom fault? IS it a media board fault? IS it as simple as a file somewhere being over written or with bad permissions?
Non b worked for me but now I have no wifi

It is essentially a manufacturer (software) issue. Malaysk has mentioned somewhere that Chinese developers messed up the BT stack. You must understand that these units use a plethora of BT boards from various suppliers AND in various HW revisions. Nobody will work on a universal BT service that accommodates all these boards. Your best bet, if you want to use the on-board BT, is to find a ROM that works, through trial and error, and stay with that one.

Thanks I am aware of the hardware diversity. It is frustrating that these companies have a weak attitude to stability. However the original rom had functional Bluetooth, and the Malaysk rom is supposed to be based upon it, thats what is also frustrating.
I tried posting in the Malaysk thread but it was largely ignored, scoffed at and lost in all the noise.
Anyone else?
Hi
Since updating to Nougat the quality of the bluetooth audio is terrible, it seems to fluctuate between all the time and can get very crackly and hissy.
Is anyone else experiencing anything like this - I updated using LG Bridge.
Thanks

All ok Here, using a Bluetooth Speaker
I've tried it with several speakers and several apps - I've also factory reset my phone but it's no different.

Don't what could be the problem, using the stock app with a Bluetooth Speaker in my case works the same as with marshmallow
I've emailed LG and got the attached reply - he mentions that there are problems with Android 7, but I think this might be a generic answer to blame android instead of themselves.

Hi,
I also have problems with my Bluetooth (headset Bluejay X2) after the Nougat upgrade. Media works 2-5 minutes, then audio just stops... the device looks connected and the media player continues to play (silently then). I have done all trouble shooting tips I've found and eventually I also did a factory reset, still same problem. I also have an android wear connected (Sony Smartwatch 3)... actually, I will test to disconnect the phone and see if the audio works better then.
Thanks for contacting LG. I will try to do the same; I sincerely hope they will send out a fix soon, as there to my knowledge is no way to (easily) roll back to Marshmallow.

A short update; problem persists. I have tried to clear system cache and now also forced the bluetooth apps to stop. Here I come to a question...
When wanting to clear Bluetooth app, I discover that I have two different apps called "Bluetooth", only difference is that one has version 5.30.18 and one has version 7.0. Should it be like this? If not, is it possible to disable one of them?

Ok, thanks... bummer, thought it might had to do something with the problem. It might have to do with the model of headphones (still a Nougat problem though), but I don't know; don't seem to have the same problem in the car, but I do not use BT audio very much there.
One thing I have noticed on my Jaybird X2's is: when this happens and I trigger "Ok Google" (long pressing the talk button), the audio starts working again (after I cancel the "Ok Google"). So... still confused, but on a higher level
I recently purchased a Bluetooth headset (Bludio T4) which evidently is not compatible with my VS990 Verizon LG V10. It pairs with a Nexus device, an iPhone, and my Windows 10 laptop. It just won't work with my V10.
I contacted their support, and they issued a refund saying that it was incompatible. I searched the reviews and found lots of other LG owners of the era having problems. (V10 and I think G5 and G6).
I'm tempted to try and throw on a Bluetooth apk from a V20 or V30 to see if that makes any difference. Am I crazy to think that might help?
Thanks.
BT Issues Too
Same issue. AT&T (LG-H900) and none of my Bluetooth devices work - keeps "skipping". Uconnect in my car, Bose in the house, any BT earphones - same issue. I've just started looking into this and came across your post. Hopefully someone can help is loading a newer APK will help solve the issues.
Nope

Thanks for the reply. I never tried a V20 APK, and never solved the problem. My V10 does pair to other things though, just not my Bluedio headphones. It sounds like you've got a different issue.
There were several things that I tried that didn't work for me, but might help you. Look around for instructions on restarting the V10 in Safe Mode, and then clearing your Bluetooth cache. You'll lose any existing BT pairings, but since none work, you probably won't mind.
There's also an option to clear the entire application cache for the phone. It's more drastic, and I lost a lot more settings than I anticipated. Avoid that one if you can.
Good luck.
