USB Audio to car stops playing after a few minutes - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hey Folks,
Wondering if anyone is having similar issues. For some reason, whenever I play music in my car (2011 X5 with IDrive) via USB cable & Default music player from my SGS 2, the audio stops playing on its own. Doesn't happen with same tracks or at the same time. It just stops and sometimes doesn't start playing again. I have to unplug the USB cable and wait a few minutes then plug it back in, put in my Unlock pwd and after a successful MTP connection it'll play again.
I don't think its related to media scanning. There's simply no message on my phone when the music stops playing. I know the USB connection is fine since I never had any issues playing music from iphone 3g via USB.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My phone is stock ATT Galaxy S2.
Thanks,
JV

Bump. This happens to me, but with just headphones. Happens in the music player, but never in Listen. Any more info on this?

Wow, I never even got my usb-connection to established. It rums around in circles trying to mount/connect. I just use the auxiliary port
Good Luck

[Q] Strange Bluetooth issue

So I got the Thunderbolt on release day and the first thing I tried when leaving the store was syncing to my 2011 VW Tiguan. It did sync fine with the phone (handsfree) and phonebook. I was using it without issue until I decided the other day to try streaming media to the radio. Both devices showed that the mediastreaming was paired as well as the headset.
Long story short... it didnt work. No audio was streamed thru the connection. OK so fine. Except now when I connect the phone to the car it first connects the headset and the media streaming profiles and then disconnects the headset. It will not reconnect at all now. (Actually it says that it is paired but disconnected)
I deleted everything and tried to re-pair it to no effect. I changed the phones name as well. I have tried a battery pull from the phone but it will no longer connect the headset profile to the car or download the phonebook.
**UPDATE**
I was able to pair it and use my jawbone headset. Would still like to get the speaker phone working.
Any thoughts? Im in the car for many hours per day and this is going to make me crazy.

[q] Soft reset after 30 mins on bluetooth?

Hi
Wondering if anyone can help me with how to diagnose this issue? I use my phone a lot in the car for navigation and to listen to music / books.
When I connect via Bluetooth, after somewhere between 30 mins and an hour, the phone does a soft reset (could be the wrong term - I don't see the normal boot screens, it just goes black and then starts at the home screen again, but the phone has clearly restarted).
The only thing thats the same,e about all these resets is the Bluetooth connection - I've tried a number of apps (mort player, spotify, audible) and they all do the same.
The only other thing I can think of is that the charger I plug it into is on it's last legs
Does anyone have the same issue, or any idea how to diagnose what's going on?
Thanks
Jon

[Q] Force USB audio

First I will explain my set-up:
- Galaxy S 3 Intl. with CM11 snapshot
- USB Audio Patcher (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=48966264&postcount=334)
- Fiio E07K with a USB OTG cable
Now I use this for my music (I use Poweramp as music player). Unfortunately, I can not really use this on-the-go because if the USB connector moves around, Poweramp (or android itself?) thinks the DAC disconnected and stops playing music (and if I press play, it will play it through the speakers if I don't reconnect the DAC).
The DAC itself isn't actually disconnected though. I am wondering if I can force music to always play through USB, regardless if Android thinks the cable is attached or not.
I also seem to have a problem where sometimes it makes crackling noises. Could this be because of an unstable connection too? Most of the time, when I reconnect the cable it's fine again.

Android Auto/Bluetooth Issues

Has anyone had any success with android auto and the V10? I have not been able to connect to my NEX4100 via android auto AND bluetooth....
I think there are general bluetooth issues. I have a 2014 Cadillac with CUE Bluetooth and the V10 connects fine but no media can play. Calls work fine. I've tried many of the tricks that helped with the LG G4 (turning media audio off in settings after connecting then turning it back on) to no avail.
Between this and the force restarts, I may return this phone and go with the Nexus 6P. Also annoyed that verizon is selling the Qi chargin back as an accessory...
I had the same issue with my 2014 Jetta and the V10, took me 30 minutes of restarting bluetooth, turning the phone off and on, turning the car off and on and finally I switched my car to FM and the bluetooth connected to also support media audio. After that it worked ok. No idea what's up with the bluetooth but for my wireless headset it paired without issue. Seems picky

Same strange issues here.
Paired no problem to a 2015 Honda Accord. Unable to pair to a 2011 BMW X3 (however the HTC One M8, M9, Samsung Galaxy Avant and Light all pair no problem). And it paired no problem to a 2016 BMW X3.
And at the gym, it disconnected from the bluetooth headset while I was using it. Wouldn't reconnect until I powered the headset off and back on.
I've got the nex4100 as well and I have had no issues at all. Everything works as it should.

I don't know. Others in the thread seem to be confirming the issue your having but I seem to be the only one with the exact same head unit. Do you have the update for the head unit? My S5 had issues before the update. Update is kind of old but it did help with my S5. And Android Auto is working fine.

I am up to date on the 4100. So i swapped it out today and now it works with Android Auto, however it still does not work with bluetooth which is super odd.. to my understanding when you plug the phone in to connect to AA it still transmits the audio over bluetooth. Pioneer said it could be something wrong with the media bluetooth profile or something. Anyways i guess im stuck until they fix it. Maybe when android M comes out.
I don't know about Android Auto, but I definitely think the V10 has Bluetooth issues. I traded my Galaxy S6 Edge+ in for a V10 a week ago. I notice the Bluetooth audio is consistently "skipping" on both my car's audio and my Bluetooth headphones. Both devices worked flawlessly on my S6. Sometimes my car will even completely disconnect from the phone and I have to go through a complete reset/re-add process to get it back.
Hoping a 6.0 update will come soon and fix this issue.

Just an update as I just ran new cable in the car for the new phone. Everything tested out fine for me. The car is an 02 Camaro that I don't drive often now that it's cold outside but after hearing your problems I wanted to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. I don't think bluetooth audio while on Android Auto worked at all but Google play works just fine. Bluetooth audio was flawless when not connected to Android Auto. Tested it on and off Wi-Fi. Good to hear your better after the swap.

I'm having problems connecting to my 2015 GMC Sierra (GMC Intellilink). I can connect, connect automatically, make and receive phone calls, but the bluetooth audio for music DOES NOT WORK. Most of the time, when I try to play a song via google play music or Deezer, the head unit in my truck immediately goes BLACK for about 10 seconds, I hear a whirrr of an internal fan, and it starts back up disconnected from the phone. The phone is causing the head unit to fail & restart. Sometimes it doesn't restart. It'll show the progress bar of the music, as well as on my phone. I can pause, play, next song, etc. but NO AUDIO comes out. It's just dead silent.
I'll let you guys know what my dealership says, as it's in service right now for this issue. I'm hoping there's an update for the software :/
When I bluetooth over to my $300 Sony x-7s speaker, every 10 seconds or so I get a loud static pop. Luckily I kept my note3 so I just use that until an update (hopefully) will fix the issue, so I can listen to my Howard Stern on the v10. I am surprised they didn't push an update on or near release date. Maybe they are going straight to Marshmallow.
So i have an update after having a week or so to play around with it. Although I cannot connect to my NEX 4100 via bluetooth I can use google play music via android auto. Also i cannot use spotify on AA UNLESS i hit play on google play music first then pause then try to play a song on spotify...... very strange.
I'm glad it's not just me... Same weird bluetooth issues here with my Mercedes E63 AMG and the COMMAND unit. It was working flawlessly with my last phone (Xperia Z3.) The V10 is nothing but a headache so far. The following problems are happening:
Won't connect at all, and hangs.
Connects for calls only, no media.
Connects, instantly disconnects, cycle repeats.
To fix it I either have to keep manually connecting from COMMAND, until it randomly works. Or disconnect from the phone, and reconnect again. Or turn bluetooth off and on. On the note of which, half the time I do that, it hangs. Love the phone, but I'm going to return it if this goes on.
Further note: I even took the car in to the dealer, and paid 150 bucks to get the latest firmware updates done on it. That didn't fix it either. Tried my Xperia again, still works flawlessly. Ugh.
I had an interesting issue with bluetooth.
I paired it to my 2015 Jeep Overland.
Music from SD Card played fine.
Then tried pandora. Nothing worked. Disabled bluetooth and pandora was fine. Went back to local mp3s from SD card and they would not play now.
Had to un-pair and pair it again. Then mp3s worked.
Played pandora and nothing and that broke mp3s again.
Then I tried my g4 on Sprint. Pandora worked fine.
Also tried Tune in Radio and that worked on v10 over bluetooth.
I think it is caused by Binge On from t- mobile downsampling the stream on pandora and the Uconnect radio does not like the bitrate or format.
I did read t-mobile will downsample streamed movies.
So folks with bluetooth issues, what are you testing with?
I have a less standard setup. I connect to my 2012 Cadillac system as a phone only, and I have an aptx bt dongle attached to the aux port that I'm connected to as a media device.
My phone connects to both simultaneously, and hands the phone back and forth for calls and music. It works flawlessly, and the audio quality way better than any OEM bt streaming that I've ever heard.
I have a Pioneer DEH 80PRS in my truck and it has connected and works perfect just like my G3 did. It always auto connects when entering the vehicle and hands off between streaming Tune in radio or from the SD card using the Android music player app and a phone call no problem. Hopefully the guys having problems will get a fix when the phone is given some MM goodness.
Same issues with Bluetooth and my 4100nex. Calls work, Android auto works, Bluetooth music does not. I'm in my 14 day window. This may be a deal breaker for me. Kinda regret ditching my note 4 for this.
Yall think it will get fixed with an update, or are we permanently screwed?

I am having the same problem with my LG V10. It won't stay connected to my Lexus 2015. The only thing I found that would work is if I keep the phone unlocked.
looks to be an issue with LG

Same issue between LG V10 T-Mobile and my Bluetooth audio on my 2014 Kia Optima SX. I also have similar connectivity issues between the phone and the Microsoft Band. Similar reports on the Microsoft boards of same Bluetooth issues with the Band and V10. Sounds like a problem on the LG side to me.

Android Auto and Bluetooth

Hey all, I recently traded in my V20 for a new G6.
I've got a 2016 Honda Civic and am having serious issues with Android Auto. Every time i plug in, it will play audio for about 10 minutes and then disconnect. Once I reconnect it will be about 10 seconds to 1 minute before it disconnects again if it connects at all. After clearing app data in AA i usually can get it to stay for about 10 minutes and then it does it again.
I know it's not the cable because i've tested both the cable that i was using with my v20 and also the one that came as a charging cable for the g6.
I have tried turning on USB debugging and also have tried all three USB connection modes.
This is super frustrating especially because for some reason (even though my v20 played audio just fine) the g6 and civic combo will only connect bluetooth for voice and not for media (without crashing.)
Anyone else experience this??
Sorry I can't help. It works fine on my Tesla.
I have what might be a similar issue. I don't get disconnects but on my 2017 Chevy Colorado, if I turn off the truck with the phone still connected to USB (for example, a quick stop at a gas station), after I restart the truck, G6 audio doesn't work at all. I have to reboot. I've tried force-stopping Waze, Pandora, and Android Auto; disconnecting and reconnecting USB; and even going into airplane mode (my phone hitchhikes on the truck's WiFi)... nothing works except a reboot. Literally the only thing I don't like about the G6.
Android Auto was flawless on my previous Nexus 6P ... but it went into bootloop and became a $700 paperweight.
I'm having similar issues with my G6 and AAuto in a 17Civic Hatchback My 1st drive of the day is usually ok But 2nd and thereafter drives no matter how much time in between The radio or music play pauses randomly whether it's a music player on Bluetooth sub Amazon music Pandora even Sirius radio I brought it in for service 4 times they tell me it's the phone or settings on the phone finally got a tech to see what's going on long story shorter they just replaced the entire radio/android system with latest android update well guess what same old same old still doing it very frustrating I had an LG G3 prior and for the most part no issues So is it a G6 thing Android Auto thing or Honda thing??? I also tried 4 or 5 different music player apps that are compatible with AA
When pressing the play button on any music player while connected to my 2017 Civic, it instantly crashes the bluetooth application. Oddly enough, for some reason the YouTube Music application can play multiple tracks without issue as long as you're using a playlist and keeping the screen off while doing so. I don't think that Android Auto is the problem, because it works perfectly fine via USB port and always allows me to interface with the application on my Civic's touchscreen panel. However, I am glad to see that I'm not the only one with this issue so maybe there will be a fix hopefully somewhere down the line.
