Bluetooth crashes when trying to connect headphones - HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G

I have a pair of Motorola S305 headphones and they absolutely will not connect to either of my Flyers. One is running LeeDroid and the other Cool Honey. The tablets see the headphones but will not connect. When I try to click on the headphones under "Paired Devices" I get "The application Settings has stopped unexpectedly"
I am pretty new to Flyer ROMs so I am not sure if this is common or if there is a known fix. It is a major issue as my fiancee uses these headphones to watch video on her commute.
Any ideas? Thanks

Anyone?

Bumping this up..

LeeDroid 4.3 fixes the BT *audio* issue but not the BT *phone* issue (if you're using it as a phone at all).

Nope, not using it as a phone, just as wireless headphones.
I don't have the tablet in front of me but IIRC one of them IS on LeeDroid 4.3.

Could you get a logcat of the moment settings FC's trying to connect to the BT headset.

Yep will do tonight.

I have S305 headphones too, and I just got my daughter's Flyer back from HTC with stock Honeycomb. I will try to connect my headset and let you know.

No connection problems with stock rooted Honeycomb here. Connected fine, was able to adjust volume, skip tracks, and pause using the headset controls while listening to Google Music.
I have also learned not to mod the Wife's electronic devices... that is why she now has an iPad and iPhone 4s and refuses to let me touch them. She used to have an Evo 4G and called me from work one day because her "customized" phone was in a bootloop and I had to walk her through recovery to flash a stock rooted ROM. She was not happy that day!

[Q] Connecting to IOGEAR BT Device

I haven't seen anyone post this yet, and I'm hoping I won't draw the usual search you fool comments. I am trying to connect to an IOGEAR GBHFK231 handsfree car device which I know usues a passcode to connect. It pairs without prompting me for the passcode, and when it tries to connect i get a message bluetooth device has disconnected, and the BT no longer shows up in the list.
I am currently using Scotts Cleanrom 1.6.5 without any mods installed, but I have had this problem with stock before unlocking, Nils ICS, Scott's Cleanrom ICS, and a few others ICS and GB.
I have also contacted IOGEAR who says they have not received any reports of issues, and will get back with me if they get any information. I'm holding my breath. Notice the blue color.
Any ideas from this renowned collection of geniuses?
This is a cheapo device by the way, and relaceing it isn't a problem. Just looking for answers.
Thanks,
Matt
Wow no responses yet.. I had it connect one time and was able to make a call using voice dial, but after it was disconnected it went back to paired but not connected, then disappeared when attempting to connect. I'm planning to upgrad my car stereo with a bluetooth calling built in model. Am I likely to have similar problems?
Thanks again.
Am I the only one to experience this problem? anyone using a Bluetooth hands free car device and can verify it working? I'm a little hesitant to buy another and have the same problem.

No comments about searching. See? :-D
You might try Amazon reviews to see if there are any reasonable complaints there.
Not sure where Berlin is but, if you live in the south, the bluetooth device itself may overheat on your dash, and that may cause the issue you describe.
Also, not familiar with BT pairing for your device, but you should be prompted for a pin / code. Make sure you're in BT wireless settings on your Rezound when you are trying to pair. It might be good to "forget" your BT device and start with a fresh pairing attempt.

If you've had the device previously paired to the phone, the phone I'd has changed according to the device. Clear your pair list and re-pair or pair, delete the pair, re-pair.

BT is flaky at best right now with the ICS rom. Mine works most of the time when it wants to. Occasionally I will have to reboot my phone to get it work right.
I have the turtle beach px500 headphones and my phone hooks up to them over Bluetooth just fine. Can make calls, listen to music.

htc uses its own BT stack. Unfortunately, BT still has too many variables which is why I have never bought the BT peripheral for my pioneer system. Not worth 150 bucks to have it not pair with a phone down the line.
Thanks for all the replies. I've been through stack problems in the past with some car audio bt devices never won one yet. This issue started before I ever unlocked my phone, and I have used both GB and ICS roms with no luck so I'm going to rule that out for now. I've started getting error messages that say I am using the wrong pin to pair, but have never been given the box to enter a pin. So far as heat etc this was working fine on my Dinc, and hasn't been in the car since I switched to the Rezound. I have also connected it to other phones while trying to fix it without a problem. Does anyone have a method to force the box to open to enter the pin, or is there possible a security setting that I need to remove?
Well I figure it out. I changed the bt device to a setting to use 2 phones, then reset it to factory default and it's working now. I don't know why the other resets didn't do the same thing, but it's working.

[Q] Sprint Photon Bluetooth Issue

Well I have searched high and low and have not found an answer yet so here goes.....
I have a Pioneer AvicZ130BT stereo in my truck and I have just switched to a Photon from an EVO 4G. I am having issues with connecting to the head unit over BT. It will work some times and sometimes it will disconnect the phone and shut off the bluetooth on the phone.
Q. Are there any updated or legacy BT drivers that I might be able to try to get these two to play nice?
Q. Is there an App that might be helpfull.
Any help will be appreciated.

Are you running on stock?
I know certain rom/kernel combos are having Bluetooth issues. I am on cm9 with the original kernel and connect to my blau deck in my bimmer and a pioneer deck in my blazer no problem.

Yes the phone is stock but has root through the All In One Root just for hotspot. The phone had issues pairing in the parking lot of the Sprint store but I thought I would be able to work it out. I have tried just about everything but can not get the phone to connect automatically or consistently.
My EVO worked perfectly. I spend alot of time in my truck and this will be a deal breaker if I can not get the phone to play nice with the truck.
I have been having similar problems with my Bluetooth. My keyboard disconnects randomly and my headset often disconnects. I posted a question about updating Bluetooth stack, but no answer as of yet. I did try cm9 and the keyboard seemed to work better. However, i didn't use Bluetooth nearly as much while on cm9.
For me not a deal breaker, but i am hoping the motorola update to ics will fix things.

UPDATE
Just wanted to say that the phone is connecting very well now and seems to be streaming Pandora and other audio just fine. I did download some 3rd party apps like bluetooth manager and car dock settings that do help in configuring the connection better. I also think that I may have been a little impatient waiting for the phone to connect automatically and may have been causing more issues than the phone. My Evo connected very fast and this phone is just a little slower but I can live with that. So in short, the phone is working as it should and I will stay a SexyMoPho for a while longer I think.
Thanks to all

YMMV:
This worked for me.
su to root:
Code:

This nukes your Bluetooth (bluetooth daemon) stored settings. Handy if you've dirty flashed any ROMs.
I found this here:

Disclaimer: I'm not responsible for your phone or command line fowl-ups. If you know what you are doing, have at it. If not, research it.
Edit: In the interest of due diligence, I have to add that there was also a firmware update for my Pioneer DEH-80PRS. Between nuking the Bluetoothd settings on my Android and updating the Bluetooth Firmware on my Pioneer car stereo, I have had flawless operation ever since. Pioneer has a disclaimer that if you don't have an IPhone, you don't need this update... I think they fixed something they aren't admitting to. You see this often with big companies that throw things in under the radar.

Bluetooth car kit problem

Mine is an A Class Merc, had the same issue with an HTC One S, I wonder If the Bluetooth is different on these newer phones and it's broken something somewhere.

Interesting, just tried it in my wife's Vauxhall, no problem at all...crystal clear both ways.
Try a couple of times. As it is intermittent in my van. Works sometimes but most of the time it doesn't. Callers just can't hear me
Ended up selling it today, car kit is a must for me, so back to iPhone 4S
I did see on the avforum
Just out of interest did you try it a few times in the vauxhall more than once?

Hi...Fine in the Astra, definitely a Mercedes problem, as I picked up a Note today from Amazon, exactly the same problem. I can connect, and hear them, they can't hear me.....so back it goes!
This is very strange, tried a Galaxy Note with Gingerbread, same problem, updated via Kies to ICS ,ver 4.0.3 and it fixed it, worked perfectly....borrow a Galaxy S3 to try again, running ICS 4.0.4, same problem.
Anyone have any thoughts?
I have the same problem, worked fine the first time I connected and hasn't worked again since :-(

I have the exact same problem. I have a 2 year old Toyota Camry with a Toyota factory built-in car kit and since switching to the galaxy s3 nobody can hear my end of phone calls.
I can use the car kit to listen to music from the s3 and can even control the music with pause/stop/previous/next buttons from the carkit, but the problem is the microphone is dead.
The bluetooth connection actually takes the microphone function away from the phone over to the car kit, but then doesn't work... Previously I was using a HTC Desire and had no problems at all with the same setup...
I've tried unpairing the devices several times, but to no avail.
I'm not sure what to do next, but I can't change the car kit as it is a factory one and actually works really well with every other phone except for the galaxy S3.
Any help would be much appreciated. Taking the car back to the factory is quite annoying, I'm hoping there's an easier fix that can be done on the phone...
Works fine in my UK Honda Civic 2007. Does clash though with my HTC Car A100 bluetooth bridge - works fine on its own but the Media Audio pairing seems to stamp all over the Call Audio pairing so I am wondering if the S3 has a bug with splitting the 2 audio connections between 2 devices.
Could it be that you're hearing your caller through "Media Audio" & thus they are unable to hear you cos the pick-up mic on the phone is too far away/being noise cancelled instead of routing through the car's hands-free mic & being treated as "Call Audio" as it should?

Bluetooth a2dp stuttering issue

I just bought a Sony MW600 bt headphones and it seems that there's a terrible stutter when i try to listen to anything. The only fix is to turn off WiFi. Anyone else experience something similar? I am forced to turn off wifi everytime i wanna use this, which is kinda annoying. Please tell me it's an android bug that can be fixed with some hack

FWIW, I have the same issue, although eventually it seems to settle down to one-two stutters every minute or so. Sometimes it is really bad, though.
It could be hardware... my original Inc. did not have this issue. But my old Touch Pro 2 did do something similar if WiFI was on.
I have the same issue with the BT in my car. Can't use the hands-free in the car & streaming music is unbearable. Are either of u running custom roms?
Sent from my Dinc 4G using xda app-developers app
What player are you guys using? Are you streaming over the net?
Might relate to WIFI AP range?
I never meet this kind of problem in my HTC phone with MW600 BT headphone when I listen to mp3 music and browse facebook in the same time.
Is it possible that your WIFI AP signal is too weak to affect BT? I heard that BT and WIFI shares some common resource in HTC phone.

Using stock ROM (rooted, but nothing more than that), playing local music using the stock player. Doesn't seem to matter if I am connected to WiFi AP or not.
I don't want to muddy the waters on this one but I wanted to mention some things that have happened to me with several phones over the last few years. Thunderbolt....BT headset needed to be replaced as it had no outgoing voice but could hear people fine. Rezound.... BT headset (plantronics I believe) wouldn't even connect to the phone, replaced with a jawbone. Wife's Inc 4g... needed a new BT headset (had an older jawbone, replaced with a newer one) it would connect to the phone and work most of the time, but sporadically it would have no sound or voice communication at all.
All of these headsets were tested on both the older phones and the newer ones when the issues were occurring. The headsets would work without any issues on the older phones, but the new ones just wouldn't work correctly.
I'm not sure if it was just a bluetooth version incompatibility (they seem to update the BT version with every damn phone) or extremely bad luck, but the problems were occurring and could be duplicated consistently. I know they say BT is backwards compatible, but I've seen issues over the years.

Hmm. I've played around with a few scenarios and I have not been able to find a stuttering issue on my phone. It's always possible that the ROM (UKB) I'm running is responsible for it but I don't think it is.
just to update everyone, i ended up returning the headset. turning off the wifi only temporarily fixed the issue and it came right back up once i got back in my car.. for the original issue i had (ground loop noise over the headphone cable) i ended up getting a ground loop isolator cable - problem solved

Bluetooth Skipping on 23B

i have flashed back to 10B several times, updated to 23b three times and every time i have my bluetooth skipping, while listening to Pandora or any music really in my truck. Just want to know if i am alone on this one or is anyone else experiencing it. If i pause the music for a few seconds, its plays, then stops, like its buffering. Any help is appreciated.

After doing a little troubleshooting, I've narrowed it down to just the radio in my truck..every other Bluetooth radio I have works fine. I'll wait till we get a final OTA I guess..

You Know i am also wondering if the issue may be coming from what version of bluetooth those other devices use i know that my alpine in my car uses v3.0 of bluetooth and it has the issue but the i home speaker i have no skips at all.
I have the same problem with my Pioneer AVH 4500Bt in my MDX. What is funny is when my wife and I were in NYC yesterday, I had her sync her IPhone 6 to my radio and the problem continued. I played my phone with a pair of Bluetooth headphones today with no skips. This problem is weird.

Finding this post has finally convinced me to sign up and participate. Long time lurker...
I have the same problem and have been working on hunting this down.
I have a pioneer deh-80ors receiver with the vs985.
On 12b and previous bluetooth works great but everything after that introduces the problem.
The audio plays normally for 15-45 seconds regardless of the app used, then drops for a second, plays for a second in a hurried mess and repeats until the receiver is restarted or bluetooth is disabled on the phone and reconnected.
I have tried a handful of roms for lollipop without success (I do like skydragon though - nice and lean with the termal mod).
If I flash back to OEM 12b using kdz everything works great. If I load an old rom like jasmine 4 it works great. I have tried enabling and disabling all settings from the hidden menu for bt_test with no results other than it occasionally not working at all.
I have read reports of people turning off the call audio from the bluetooth pairing with mixed results, using an app from the manufacturer of the deck (which doesn't work here since pioneer connect was released like two years ago), disabling driving mode (for the S2 and S3), and all kinds of other snake oil. Based on the fact it works fine with the OEM revision up to the one before lollipop leads me to believe it's some problem with lollipop directly. I'm confident it's not the bluetooth drivers or firmware as flashing between major releases resulted in the modem being broken (intermittent LTE) but the same bluetooth issues. That is, unless the BT drivers are built into the release and are specific to each one in which case replacing the new drivers in a more modern ROM with the old ones may work.
The worst part is that most decks don't work with droid devices nearly as well as apple anyway, if we could just plug them in over usb I would be ok with that. Unfortunately the receiver doesn't even see the thing and no manner of apps or settings changes I could do ever got that working either. If anyone has gotten a usb audio connection working (preferably without USB Audio Pro App which is the one that most people like) I would love some input.
