Hello, I just bought a Xperia S and I did not reach in connection it to my Built-in bluetooth system (a parrot built-in kit in a Citroen). The pjone can see the system but I'm not able to make the system pairing.
I already had difficulties in the past with an X10 but it was linked to Android 1.6 and with my Samsung Galaxy S2 under Cyanogen7. I have no issue to conenct with Nokia E6, iPhone 4 or Android 2.3.X smartphones (Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire,...).
I think that it could come from the BT stack used by Sony or from their Android adaptation and I don't think I would be able to pair the system till an update could be released or perhaps with ICS.
Does somebody has the same difficulty or a solution ?
Best regards
Try to reset the bluetooth in your car.

I had the same issue with my bluetooth IO player.First time when I added it after that it would not connect. Turned bluetooth off and on and automatically connected. Might be worth restarting your phone. If the phone can add it then it should be able to connect to it.
Hello, I do,'t know where to reset my car BT as it is a built-in. One solution could be to remove the fuse....
It is not a question of connexion as I'm not able to pair the BT device and the Xperia.
I have no issue with all the other phones !!!
I have a 2009 Ford Mondeo and my Xperia S paired with the integrated bluetooth unit without any issues. Can browse phone book and call log without any issues and obviously make/receive calls.
Hi Guys,

Hello,
I have upgraded to Android 4.1.2 and my Kernel is JZ054K.I9100XWLSD. Since the upgrade I face problems with bluetooth. Everytime I conncect via bluetooth to our car telephone system (Audi), I get connected. After 30s I get reconnected than connected again. I had version 4.0.4 before and did not have any problems with bluettooth connections to my car. Does anyone have an idea? Does the 4.1.2 in general has this problem? How to fix it?
Thank you very much for any suggestion ort support!
That's strange. How did you update? Does is connect as rSAP or only with Handsfree profile? Did you already try to remove the pairing from the car and to do a new pairing?
I updated three days ago using KIES from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 and I do not have any problems with connection to my VW FSE Premium. Everything is working like before I didn't even need to do a re-pairing, the old configuration was still working.

I updated via WiFi. Re-paring was not necessary. I switched not to visibility from 2 Minutes to always. Need to see, if this helps.
I do not need to set/change the visibility on my phone. I switch on bluetooth and when I enter my car, the car "takes" the sim card. When I switch off bluetooth or leave my car, the phone is getting access back to the sim card.

I've had similar issues with my SGS2 on ICS and now with 4.1.2 (XXLSJ). I'm convinced the problem is a combination of the phone's current processes and how often the car kit retries to connect. I have a Parrot based bluetooth kit factory fitted in my 2006 Mitsubishi. It usually connects within about 20 seconds of starting the car. It often won't connect for about a minute and sometimes doesn't connect at all (maybe 1 in 20 times). When it doesn't connect, I turn off bluetooth in the SGS2 wait about 15 seconds and turn it back on. It usually connects again without touching the car kit.
I've noticed that if I unpair the car kit at the SGS2, the car kit will try to reconnect about once a minute and the phone makes a noise to tell me that something is trying to connect.
Recently I took a vacation and rented a 2012 Toyota Camry and paired my SGS2 to its bluetooth. The phone connected faultlessly very time, there were no issues.
My theory is that if the phone is busy with some process or another when the bluetooth kit tries to connect, it misses the connection. If the kit retries several times (I'm guessing the Toyota kit did this), then there seem to be no issues.
I can only guess that if the SGS2 bluetooth stack is given a higher priority it would be less likely to miss the connection. Clearly that's impractical because bluetooth only needs to connect (maybe) 3-5 times a day and may exclude a more frequently used process.
Just my 2 cents worth - I hope that helps

Actually, we own two SGS2 phones: Both pair with our Audi telephone kit. The first reconnects after 30 sec./ 1 minute and then reconnects. The later stays connected. However, if I try to use the phone to dial a number via the Audi telephone unit.....the Audi telephone unit starts to dial and then stucks. The first phone is able to dial.....as I have seen in the web others seem to have the same problem with SGS 2 4.1.2. I even bought BLUETOOTH KEEPALIVE...no succces. With version 4.0.4 neither of the phones had a problem with paring with the Audi device. Any other ideas?
Same for me
Im also having the same issue, I have a SEAT Altea and after upgrading to JB on my S2 i have exatly the same issue.
Connecting to the Blue Tooth now takes a lot longer than previously and i get a rapid reconnection about every 30 seconds or so (could be slightly longer i havent measured it). There is no disconnect sound from the hands free though only a conneciton sound.
Please post if you find a resolution to the issue.
Regards.

Problems with Bluetooth
Hi All,
I have the same problem. I upgraded to 4.1.2 recently and immediately after all was OK. However now it has developed a new problem.
It will connect to the Car Bluetooth and will play music however the minute I start a call it will only use the small speaker designed for when you hold it to your ear. I will not allow me to press the headset button and will not automatically switch to headset/Bluetooth. This is seriously irritating and I have tried all the usual options of rebooting and unpairing etc. but to no avail...
Your pearls of wisdom would be gratefully received

I report the same issue between my SGS2 and my '04 BMW 3-series.
With the 4.0.3 ICS no problems: the phonebook is shared correctly and visibile with the car, without loosing the connection.
Starting from 4.1.2 JB I'm not able to keep up the connection for more than 30 seconds, and I cannot read also the phonebook: in this way the phone cannot be used in the car.
The only way to have JB and the bluetooth working togheter is to install a custom ROM (4.2.2 SuperNexus or RootBox 4.2).
Try it!:good:
Install File Manager which can access system files
go to System/etc/bluetooth
in file called main.conf add
IdleTimeout=0
save file - it worked for me
hi
i have an m155 plantronics bluetooth headset which has a specification of bluetooth version 3.
when i use it with my android jellybean 4.1.1 mobile phone ALCATEL 5035E (unrooted) to play music, the music stutters,
drops off, then resumes, then finally drops off completely without resuming, although bluetooth
icon remains blue. i touched the bluetooth icon to disconnect it. the icon
blinks and does not stop.
i brought my mobile phone for service and they replaced my phone with a brand new one. but the same problem occurred.
the technicians said it could be a problem with the bluetooth compatibility with the android jellybean. they said to update my bluetooth device so that it becomes compatible with the android 4.1.1. i was skeptical because i had this vague thought that there is no such thing as updating the software on a bluetooth headset.
i checked on my android device, and the bluetooth version on the mobile phone is 4.1.1-1350
sorry if i sound stupid to ask you guys. but i need to give the technicians an answer so that we can move forward in finding the problem. Your answer will help us go in the right direction.
does the bluetooth headset need to be the same version with the android phone in order for it to function properly?
is there an android update that fixes my issue? if so, how do i get it?
thanks much
I'm not sure what's wrong but I've been having bluetooth connectivity issue last few days. I paired the Z Ultra with Sony Smartwatch and I noticed that the Smartwatch would loose connectivity every once in a while, even though the phone is in my pants pocket or just 30cm away from.
I did all the usual troubleshooting, restarting both devices and re-pair it.
Anybody experiencing similar issue?
I have actually experienced a problem with the bluetooth when pairing to my Jabra headset. I have only had the phone for a 2 days and just recently updated to build number 14.1.b.0.471. Since then, i havent tested out the bluetooth yet. However, i have seen some bug fixes.
Have you updated to the latest firmware yet?

Yes, the phone is up to date.
I'm having Bluetooth issues with various headsets and this phone. Some of them disconnect, some hang, some randomly will have one way voice in the middle of the call.
Running the latest firmware. Something is up with the BT drivers on this phone.

i had similar issues with bluetooth and linking to my car. at first it worked fine, but if i would change input on car stereo and come back, to the bluetooth, the mb bluetooth would auto start google play music. the solution for me was to remove all device from bluetooth option from phone and car and it worked perfectly.
That sounds worrying cos I ordered the SBH52
Hope they fixed this. Haven't tested my blue tooth yet cos I don't have a BT device.

The thing is, I only paired one bluetooth device to the phone. As mentioned above, I unpaired, restart and re-pair the Smartwatch again and the issue persist.
I find it weird because it worked fine when I first paired the Smartwatch with the phone. The problem only occurred recently
I've had nothing but trouble using SBH50 (same with both firmwares 1.0.A.4.0 and 1.1.A.0.7) with Z Ultra (14.1.B.0.475). First time connection (NFC) went smoothly. Followed by lots of trouble within minutes. Frequent lost connections (even when they were just a few inches apart) followed by requests for pairing. Random loss of media or phone audio without any warning sign.
Connection was stable only after uninstalling the SBH50 android application (and all the smart extras), disabling Sony Smart Connector and execution of manual pairing. No more event reminders, but at least it is now usable for music and phone calls. Hopefully Sony will update firmware/software to address the connectivity problems.
[Edited 30 August 2013: Happy to report that the connectivity problems were resolved in firmware 14.1.B.1.510]
how about me, i can't event send a file from my laptop to my device?
anyone can help?
it's paired but when i send, doesn't notified to receive any of that files
NFC can't recieved item
My Z Ultra can't recieved item that another device send to my Z Ultra via NFC. It always trying to open Play Store after beam. Can anyone help me please!!!!!

I have the SBH20 and never had any problem... connected the first time via NFL, just turned on bluetooth on both the phone and the headset since.
Everything runs smooth, and I'm still at. 510.

broken bluetooth
hi guys, ive been looking for a fix to my bluetooth. i just bought SW2 but i still unable to use it because apparently the bluetooth on my phone could not detect the watch. I have tried reset, fixing it via companion apps in windows but problems still persist. i have tried using my galaxy with SW2 and no problem there. basically it was my bluetooth inside the ZU that are causing all the problems. Im on the latest build .257 and are not rooted. Bootloader is locked and everything else is stock. When i tried to connect via the 1-touch NFC there's dialogue showing up on my phone that the watch is connected but nothing happen afterwards. the SW2 is still in its pairing mode and there are no instruction to ask me for download or anything as shown by Sony in their youtube channel. Im growing frustrated with this phone. Having to live without root and now wasted $200 on a watcg that i cant even use. argghhhhhhhh....any help is much appreciated guys!
I have the same problem with the Sony SmartWatch 2 when I talk in my BT headset the phone keeps losing connection with my watch.
edit: system restore did the trick
Im also facing unresolved issue with my xperia zultra and bluetooth connectivit.
My phone is unable to recognize any bluetooth hardwares and its becoming quite annoyiing.
Has there been any remedy to this issue?
Thanks
Good afternoon.
I got a simple handsfree bluetooth carkit, wich works as a simple bt headset, transfers call audio to car speakers and nothin more, doesnt sync messages nor contacts, just a simple pair&go.
I had a sonyericson x-10 mini pro with android 2.1 that worked just fine, recently i've aquired a bq aquaris 5hd with jelly bean 4.2.1, and i cant get bluetooth to stay connected.
what happens is, i pair the two devices just fine, but then, they just remain connected for some secs and then connection is disabled, rendering the handsfee kits useless. i reconnect, after some secs it disconnects again. been reading on internet and it seems its a common problem with JB 4.2.1, these bluetooth issues.
my question is, is there any fix i can apply? any app that i can install? anything at all?!
thx for any help
Other phone (Walton Primo X2 with 4.2.1), same issue.
Is there any solution, because no upgrade is planned from the manufacturer.
Thx

somebody???
I have Samsung Galaxy SII (Sprint) running Android 4.0.4. This is stock rom.
I recently got a Bluetooth headset (Taotronics TT-BH06). I paired it with the phone and it worked fine. However, the next time I turned on Bluetooth the phone went into an bootloop. The only way I could stop it was to to into Bluetooth settings and unpair the headset. I have tried pairing several times and get the same problem each time. Also, when I originally pair, the device has the manufacturer's name, but when I later go to unpair, it has the name "00:23:01:23:32:B1".
I sent a support query to the vendor, and they sent me a replacement. However, I get the same problem with the replacment! I have used other BT devices with my Galaxy S2 and had no problems. Furthermore, I have used this Taotronics headset with another Android device, without any problems. Has anyone heard of this kind of problem? Is there any way to fix this problem with the phone?
