Is anyone else experiencing constant Bluetooth disconnects while streaming audio? This happenes to me every 15-20 minutes whether I am listening to music or an audio book. Its only become an issue again because I started to drive my car which has MS sync in it. This is driving me insane because the only way I can get it to reconnect is to cycle the Bluetooth radio on the phone... So here I am at highway speeds playing with my phone, the exact thing the Sync is supposed to prevent.
Thanks

I get it every so often using my jawbone icon and Netflix. I am on the latest 198-7 ROM. I ended up making a tasker shortcut to cycle through for me, which works well. maybe you could program your camera button or something.

Every single time! It was annoying. Specially when increase or decreasing the volume. Im using an a2dp bluetooth headset. And reconnecting it, is a pain! Need to unpair n pair it over n over n over again

Thankfully, this is one problem I do NOT have!
Flawless connectivity with my Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and with my Hyundai Genesis.
I have not seen this issue at all. my truck unit works great and my Motorola headset works well. i stream every day and haven't had a bug yet, knock on wood.
I have a set of moto s9-hds and i have to unpair and pair at least once a day. I read on the moto forums that its a known problem.

I had this problem, I even started a thread for it. I used rsdlite to flash back to an older software an updated manually. Then once u pair your Bluetooth device click down on it and wait a few seconds and options will come up. Just make sure everything is checked off. Pm me if u need more help. I will try to make a video for everyone else.

I had the jawbone icon and i had the same frequent disconnect issues a few times a day, but i got the new motorola elite flip, love it btw, works way better than the icon every did and has only disconnected once since i have been using it for 3 days now and it automatically reconnected, unlike my icon where i had to do the power cycle

My Plantronics 220 earpiece works great. My Moto Stereo BT Headphones work flawless unless if I am listing to Pandora and i get a phone call, I can answer but when they hangup, BT disconects. I have to shut down Pandora, thur headphones off/on, then go back to what I was doing? I just THOUGHT it was Pandora?
EDIT: I have Moto S305!

My Dad wants to go the Android route and I want to tell him to get the Thunderbolt but Bluetooth is the single most important function he uses in his car. He has a 2010 Volkswagen Jetta Diesel. It pairs fine with blackberry phones.
I know that the Droid Incredible only worked with cyanogen. I'm just curious for some information on the Thunderbolt. Thanks for looking. XDA has been an amazing resource.

Well the TB is going to be capable of using Bluetooth 3.0 so I'm sure its pretty capable
I use it as a Bluetooth mp3 in my truck, it automatically pairs just fine

Let me ask you... I have a 2011 Sonata and I have notice a little cracking noise when I playing music pretty loud. Now the noise is somewhat low but you can hear it more when raising the volume. Wanted to see if anyone else had this issue.
So wait it's a 3.0 device? I thought it was a 2.1???
I had a lot of problems with this on the Droid Incredible. It's the same reason why wi motes would not work with the Incredible when we tried to pair them using bluetooth. Has this issue been resolved on the Thunderbolt?
I loaded Cyanogen on the Incredible which had a different bluetooth stack native to its build. This resolved the problem on the Incredible and I am looking for verification that by default the Thunderbolt does not have the issue.
If so I will ditch my Incredible too.
thanks,

When 3.0 becomes available they will update the Bluetooth stack to.support it... It has the hardware for it just not software
And as far as I know the thunderbolts Bluetooth stack is up to date instead of being behind like the Dinc

Hi everyone, I'm just curious does anyone else have problems connecting Bluetooth headphones or a Bluetooth earpiece to there photon. And when I mean connecting I mean making the connection and using it for a long period of time. I can pair and sync but after listening to music for like 15 minutes the audio stops transmitting to the headset but the song shows its still playing. And yes the phone still says the Bluetooth link is still their. Any ideas?

Back on track...............Yes I do, BUT only when listening to Pandora. If I get a call and/or message, it sometimes goes out for no reason. I have to cut it off on the headset then back on. Again this is sometimes. Other than that, works fine!

I doubt you have a bad Photon (just my opinion) as we both have the same issue. If I am doing ANYTHING else, like listening to music from my card or stock internet radio, even YouTube, works great. Pandora is like playing the lottery with the headset. And its a Motorola Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.

Thanks, nice to know I'm not alone, sprint as usual told me we have to factory reset over the phone and they Guy didn't want to wait with me while I tested the headset. He actually hung up on me. Well anyway I tested using a Motorola h500 earpiece and also my turtle beach px5 headset, and I also tested using my wife's jabra headset and they all failed. But they work on my buddy's evo flawlessly

So, not that it's SUPER important. But I just got done dialing my system in my truck in. Put all the speakers in, sub, amps, head unit, etc etc. And I got a model with bluetooth. And I must say, it's legit. I can stream music via it from my phone, take calls and it'll mute the music so I can take the call. I recommend to anyone that drives and talks a lot to do this. It's not too much and it's very helpful and sounds decent too.
been doing that in my car for a couple years now... Love it. But for some reason my MoFo will drop the BT connection after playing music for about 20 mins. Well maybe drop the connection is the wrong thing to say, it is still connected, still get message notifications through the Headunit, but it stops streaming the music....
Are you using the stock music player?

Just put a jvc unit in my work car. Damn its sweet. Love being able to stream music without the aux cable.
Also mine has a bt remote so i cab skip tracks through Pandora or any of the other music apps without using the phone.
This and the unlimited Pandora apk is the best combo ever.

Do you guys leave your bt enabled on your phones? Never really used anything Bluetooth except for my ps3 so i don't know how much it would affect battery life leaving it on.

Jvc av794 i think. Works awesome. Names of songs pop up via bt through music app. Calls also work great. Car has a factory 9 speaker h/k otherwise
I also have an eclipse cd5030 and call quality sucks. But its been that way with all phones. I think the car is too loud and there is no echo cancellation sw.
Factory speakers otherwise. And a 10 inch sub.

Right on. I'm running four mids two tweets two amps and a sub. The amp is actually kinda handy for call volume.

Hoping a fellow xda member has found a way around this issue before. So I connect my amaze to my cars stereo to stream using A2DP, I use to do this with my galaxy s 2 as well. One thing I find annoying about the amaze is that unlike my gs2 it doesnt connect automatically and I have to enter the pin code everytime can someone share a way to get the amaze to automatically do this? Tried some autoconnect Bluetooth app from the market but it still made me type in the pin code.

In my car you have to register the phone to the head unit in order for it to connect automatically. Have you done this?
Hope it helps,

It works with my truck 100%. It may be your radio. I have an aftermarket Sony radio unit and my Amaze connects to it with no problem. My music plays through my speakers and I do not have to enter a pin code besides pairing it up for the first time.

Well I'm using a pioneer and my galaxy s 2 did this just fine. Everything else works fine which is weird I can flip through songs from the head unit. Another issue I see is the amaze only connects media or phone depending on which screen I'm on with my pioneer the only way to connect both is by going into the settings and doing it manually.

Are you on ICS or GB? I'm thinking of you should probably install ICS for the updated radio. It may give you a better connectivity.
I'm on ics it didn't work on either maybe my phone isnt paired as the primary or there is something I can reset in the stereo?

I did have some problems before and most of the time it was fixed by increasing the max frequency while screen was off ( I was using viper rom or meanbean), I don't know what rom you are having trouble with and also Bluetooth is really sensitive to interference specially in open spaces, I work outside and I've noticed that if I wave my hand right next to my handset while on a phone call, I get the static and crackling noise you might be referring to, but if I'm in my house I dont get the same result... What rom are you using? Kernel? Scheduler? Or app to set your frequencies? I'm on cm 10.1 and this is my second replacement which doesn't like over clock without the kernel stabilizer made by Viperboy and I'm currently using Komodo rls 30, I don't have that static anymore... :good:
Hatkalte 1.3.2... But it happens on all roms. Also it crackles and then disconnects and then reconnects.. And then cycles again.. It's so annoying.

Ok, my bluetooth died at the end and would not be recognized nor recognize any device that I had previously paired with my phone so I had to use VipeRuu and got it replaced, this is my second replacement after that bluetooth failure... Good luck, you might have a hardware issue like mine was, I won't be surprised if in a couple days it dies completely just like my original evo lte, have you tried stock rom?
Sent from my EVO
I've had issues as well. The best performance I had was on an aosp rom. I was able to walk a crossed 8 bays and through a door and still pick up my music playing. I've noticed sometimes while doing yard work that the music would be very choppy. My buddy has an lte and the same LG tone headset and has the same problems. Hopefully when I get my new s4 my problems will be solved. I'll report back when I verify if it is the phone or the headset or just bluetooth in general.
