I had posted about this a couple of months ago but decided to put it on a back burner and work on some other things.
Here is my problem. I am connecting to the wifi at work and also have a Creative D100 A2DP speaker that I use for listening to music. I use Pandora and also an app called Gizmo which allows me to stream music from my home computer. I can connect to the speaker and it will play for a while and then drop the bluetooth connection to the speaker. Sometimes it plays one song sometimes many then just disconnects. I can go into settings and reconnect and it will do the same thing.
I have tried this with TNT Lite, Vegan, TTx, and now Calkulins rom. They all do the same thing.
Anyone have any idea how I can keep the bluetooth connection alive? The speaker is A2DP only. It will not autoconnect like a BT headset will, I have to manually connect it. I can do the same with my Iphone and the connection will stay on all day.
Thanks for any tips anyone may have.
Not too sure if this is relevant, but I have been having a similar problem with my Bluetooth but with a different device. I connect up to a BT keyboard (apple), but I get disconnected after a minute or two. Looks like we might have a problem with our BT.
I finally exchanged mine thinking it might be a hardware problem but the new one does the same thing. It annoying as hell!

ok, this has been plaguing me and preventing me from switching permanently to 2.2 since the camera has been fixed.
the problem:
you pair your bluetooth device and connect. media works fine. then disconnect and turn off bluetooth and the bt device. turn everything back on, and media won't play through the bluetooth device.
the cause:
well, i have been using the same jabra sp700 for a few years now. worked great on all my devices (iphone 2g, iphone 3g, dream, various nokias and my x10 up to 2.1). well, apparently 2.2+ android requires a bluetooth device that supports avrcp or the avrcp handling of 2.2+ roms require avrcp to work on the bluetooth device. however, my sp700 (and i would imagine other older bt devices) either do not have this or it doesn't work as android wants it to.
the solution (tested multiple times, works sometimes, not others):
pair and connect, go into settings and disable "phone audio" for the bluetooth device.
kind of sucks since this is my car speaker phone, but i use it for media more than i use it for phone. but i have connected/disconnected several times and media is still playing through the bt and not the phone speaker.
so those who have bt media problems with 2.2+ roms, try this, it may work for you.
will this fix the problem? http://www.foogod.com/android/ ?
it is the same with MW600 headset on Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 0.54 ROM.
what happens for me:
both devices were paired in the past and remember each other. I turn on BT on the phone and power on the headset. press play in the music player - nothing plays, it hangs and come back to paused state.
when I press play for second time music comes from headphone speaker.
what helps:
stop the playback at this point. turn the headset off and on again. press play and the music should play through it. with both music headset and phone audio profiles active.
this is how I have to do it every single time. headset works normaly afterwards until you turn the BT off on the phone again. it's just a little inconvenience.
what troubles me more are the short gaps in the playback you get about every minute and when you turn the screen off.

does not work
what about the method I wrote about? I think it is the same problem.
power off/on your headset again when the music starts playing from the headphone speaker used normally for calls. every single time this happens it fixes this for me.

that was working on and off for me. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
i made some modifications to the bluetooth audio.conf, will test those on my way home tonight.
no problems here with my bluetooth and i'm using wolfbreaks' 2.2 rom. i'm using a sony dr-bt50 headphones.
I've been having this problem with my headset too (hbh is800) and I'll try once I get back from home. Hopefully it works. I've tried the foogod link before and it never helped. I've been experiencing the bluetooth problem with my watch too (mbw 150) it connects and later it disconnects. and the cycle keeps repeating.
I have the same problem with dante-fu. I use Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 v0.54 ROM and MW600 headset. But turn on/off headset doesn`t help me sometimes and I have to re-pair devices.
I'm too having some problems with my mw600 head set.
Sometimes it does not play through the Bluetooth headset but through the speaker of the phone (it happens rarely)
But the most annoying thing is after a call, my headset just freezes & nothing works expect for the power button. Only solution is to turn the device of & turning on it again.
Using Wolf's 2.2 CM ROM
well, this sucks, i've tried changing all the media configs and nothing.
only solution i can think of is porting the bluetooth stack from 2.1 to 2.2.
back to 2.1 since my bt speaker is the only option for music in my car since my kid decided to deposit $.42 into my cd player.
Blutooth Media streaming problem
Hello,
Has anyone had any luck resolving this issue?
It's starting to drive me crazy. Bluetooth phone calls work perfectly but media streaming works intermittently.
Is there an easy way to replace downgrade the blutooth stack?
I am running CM 6.13
Is anyone facing issues getting sound to play from their bluetooth headset when paired with the Asus Transformer Prime? Have you been able to resolve it? I have been able to pair it without a problem but the sound doesn't stream. I'm on TW_9.4.2.15
So far, I've seen a few threads but no answers that have been confirmed. Any thoughts? Also, confirmation that this problem still exists would be helpful, thanks!
Bluetooth headset connects but can't stream audio

Bluetooth Disappointment
Bluetooth headset and Transformer Prime (ICS)
inline mic or bt headset
I am now on Virtuous Prime, but also had this working previously on stock .15. I have Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones working. I have also gotten music audio to stream to my Plantronics m155, so it does work, but can be a little fiddly.
Process that works for me is as follows (and I know there is no particular reason for any of this, but it is what works so I do it this way).
1. Start Google Music, hit play so music starts, then pause the music.
2. Turn on the headphones and let them pair to Bluetooth.
3. Settings->Bluetooth, go to the headphones and and make sure you have both the Phone Audio and Media audio profiles checked (this is where MOST times the issue is on my TFP)
4. Press play on your headphones.
Again, no rhyme or reason why, but it does work for me this way.
Cheers,
Peter
I have the Samsung HS3500 and HS3000 and both work fine for streaming audio out of the Prime.
In general I just have to turn on the Prime's bluetooth, then turn on the headset I want to use (they look for connections when turned on, so if the tablet's bluetooth isn't already on they won't connect) and it connects after a few seconds and works perfectly.
I don't know if I am just getting lucky with the Prime's bluetooth but I haven't had any problems streaming content from the internet such as Netflix and listening to it with my bluetooth headsets.
If you are looking to just listen to music and video on your Prime you could give the HS300 a try, it isn't expensive:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Stere...WK5E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1330989035&sr=8-1
However if you want a bluetooth that is easy to use while driving I would suggest the:
http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Black..._1_2?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1330989270&sr=1-2
Both can be used to listen through headphones (the 3500 requires you to use the included headphones, or listen through the included adapter). The HS3000 can also be used for calls, since there is a mic next to where the headphone plugs in, however the 3500 is easier to use while driving.
Thanks for the suggestions! pbrauer I tried your workaround, and it didn't work out, but I learned something... I have no media audio profile, only the phone profile. I have been doing more research on the matter and it looks like it could be incompatibility between mono earpiece/headsets and android in general.
My headset is an i.Tech Clip II mini 606 mono headset, and it doesn't appear to have a2dp technology. Looking at what's posted on other android forums unrelated to the Transformer Prime, some have tried software such as BTmono and SuperMonoFroyo to reroute the audio feed. Unfortunately, no dice... I'll keep researching to see if I can find any solution - if I find a solution elsewhere, I'll make sure to post back here so it can help others.
Almightywhacko, I'm going to try and struggle with this for a bit longer since I just got out of university and would prefer to stay away from getting further in debt, at least until I get a job. But once I get a job, and if this issue persists, I might go for one of those, thanks!
I have Transformer TF300T and I have problems with my two stereo bluetooth headsets (Dell and Jabra). Headphones pair with no problems, but then there is no sound. Sometimes reset (turning off/on) helps, I also tried to hard reset the tablet - this helped too, but only temporarily. After some time of listening, sound disappears. And these are my BT headsets that I use all the time with my mobile phone, without any problems.
I have also noticed, that when there is a problem with a Bluetooth headset sound, and I try to display film (using MX Player), film stops for a while every one second. It looks like there is a heavy process in the background, that makes the film perform bad. When I turn off the Bluetooth (or I have a luck, and there IS sound in my BT headset), film is displayed perfectly well.
TF300T has Bluetooth 3.0 on board, my headsets are BT 2.x. Could this be a problem? (o.k., I do know, that BT 3.0 is compatible with 2.x, but still, this is life, and who knows ?)

SO GLAD to hear I'm not the only one with this problem! To date the best answer anyone can give me is: "not all brands of Bluetooth Headsets work on the Transformer Prime"- what???
My Jawbone Icon didn't work & I had it a year before I bought the TP. Somehow I lost the Icon so I bought the newer Jawbone Era, and it doesn't work either. It pairs just fine & I can hear sound but when using Google Voice /Talk, I can't speak into the BT mid and be heard.
Really sucks! My 2 year old Droid 2 phone has no problem with either BT headset. Very frustrating not to know why they don't work??
Anyone experience this? connected to the car bluetooth, but when i off the infotaintment and stop the car, the music continue playing using the phone speaker. H'mmm not a bit issue but very troublesome to stop what is playing every time
I read in a review that there's a setting you can change which lets you have music continue playing after removing headphones or have it automatically pause, I believe this setting will also affect bluetooth audio as well, perhaps this will help? I can't say if it is this though, I haven't got mine yet but it will be good for me to know too as I connect my phone to my car's stereo via bluetooth and will do the same with the Z2.
So I have a Ford Edge with a bluetooth receiver where I can play music, as well as some headphones, and I'm having intermittent issues when using this type of playback. The issue doesn't occur with my partner's Note 5, does anybody have any issues with stereo bluetooth? I'm close to writing to LG about it so they can log with (possibly) other reports for the same issue.

Just today i had issues with mine, i have one the parrot devices on my car and it picks up my iphone right away but i tried for about 2 minutes to play music from my v10 and it wouldn't connect to it, someones it connect right away its very off and on. I didn't try to unpair it and re-pair it though.
Am I reading that right, are both BT devices trying to connect at the same time? If so I had sorta the same problem in my Audi. I sometimes had to toggle Bluetooth on and off to get it to reconnect. But what I did was go into the Bluetooth settings for each device and specifically select the profile I want to use for that device. So for Audi MMI, which handles the phone calls, I selected the profile "Call Audio" only. Then for my headphones I selected the "Media Audio" profile only. I just figured that if two BT devices are fighting for the same profile only one is going to win it. And it seemed like it was a toss up which one got the call or media profile first.

No, you are not . However, allow me to clarify that the devices I mentioned are having issues on their own when using the V10. One incident is with my car's stereo, if I'm lucky, the audio will hold or it will decide to be a douche and start getting choppy with 1 second gaps.
Also, I'm noticing with the WiFi that my signal is horrible, but my partner's Note5 is perfect and super quick. I really really like this phone, but these issues are a bit annoying.
I have problems with my car stereo too. When I get in the car, it will connect automatically and start playing like normal but only for a minute or two. Then bluetooth will disconnect. So, I turn bluetooth off and on and, it will stay connected after that.
I also have a bose bluetooth speaker which doesnt have any problems.
I just found this thread after posting to the rom thread I am using...
I am having a minor annoyance with Bluetooth and media streaming.
When the phone auto pairs to my cars stereo head unit (Kenwood KDC-BT762HD), system sounds/calls etc come through the car fine, but not Media like music, videos etc.
Phones says it is paired to Media and the head unit does show the song info and I can control the app via hardware buttons on the unit, the phone acts as if it is playing, but no sound is heard. I have to turn bluetooth off then on or re-pair and then it works fine. I thought it was just the music app I use, but its any apps that play media like music or videos, including Pandora and Youtube.
I have 4 varying bluetooth headphones and they auto- reconnect to the phone just fine with no issues.
Anyone else having a an issue like this with any of their car stereos? My G3 never did this.

This is a fairly known issue to specific cars.

Also, I have a gmc canyon 2015. I have the same issue. I stopped using my car's bluetooth , I now only use aux cable. Amazing in 2016 and I still have to use aux cable. I am looking to moving to one plus 3 because of this issue. marshmallow also brought gps bugs on top of the bluetooth one.

I don't think its a MM issue or a vehicle specific issue (and i have an aftermarket stereo head unit) I have not had this issue with any of my other MM (or LP)devices I have tried with the radio. I have a spare LG G3 and a Moto X Pure that is running MM that is running MM and many of the mods and same apps I use on my G3 and now V10, again, no BT issues.
I am not having any disconnect or not pairing issues at all....just the odd thing that the media sounds don't work unless i disconnect/then connect the phone to the head unit when I get back into the car and power up and it auto pairs.
My folks have a much more serious issue with their 2015 Ford Escape and Ford Sync and their Samsung S4's they both have. Phone pairs and works fine once, but then the mic acts like its muted, no one can hear u, even if u un-pair the phone from the car, the phone itslef no longer outputs sound at all. You have to reboot the phone in order to get it to work again. It did it when the phones were on Android L and still after the MM update. Web search finds many folks with same issues in regards to that issue. (which is not the issue i am having at all, infact, their phones work fine on my car).
I found a work around for my issue. Since i simply just needed to disconnect and reconnect the BT to my car's head unit, found a widget that does just that. A2DP Connect2. Car auto pairs, i tap widget once, disconnects, wait a few sec, tap again, connects, my media streaming now works fine.
Still a annoyance, but much better than having to navigate menus and such.
BT issues fixed with update to 20j.
I can confirm that the annoying Bluetooth media stream issue in 20e, where you had to re-connect the phone or no media stream....is fixed in 20j. Auto connect works perfectly every time now on my Kenwood head unit.
Hello,
Need some help with phone calls not passing through Bluetooth to my car stereo.
It's a new stereo, the old one died, but I could make/receive calls with it without any problems.
The new stereo recognises BT media audio, but not phone calls (incoming or outgoing).
The BT settings screen shows the car stereo as "Connected (no phone)"
I am using [ROM][Slim][6.0.1][AOSP_r74][Slim 6 For Kenzo][21/11/2016] and I saw two posts here and here from @DoubleDroz experiencing the same issue.
I would ask at that thread, but unfortunately it has been locked by @Umang96.
I've seen this problem mentioned before with some ROMs.
I know the phone's BT works fine because it worked with the previous car stereo only yesterday (and it works with the new stereo for media audio).
I've tried a few apps from the PlayStore but nothing sorted the issue.
Ideally, I'd like to stick with this ROM, old as it might be, as I find it just fine for my needs (I don't play any games, it's work only).
But if I have to install a different ROM to get bluetooth calls in the car I will because it is a necessity.
I don't want to install MIUI though, can't stand it.
I would use Krexus-CAF if it hadn't the issues with GPS navigation, which is also a necessity.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Hi, i found fix for bluetooth "NO PHONE" on car set. It's work on latest LOS rom. Follow this post.
