[Q] ICS BlueTooth issue - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i have flashed my sgs2 with an ICS rom ( official ),
And since then every time i trying to talk with my car hands free by bluetooth the other side hear me only in short bursts.
i have tried to change the rom also tried to change the kernel and no improvement.

Have you already wiped cache partition (and Dalvik cache) in recovery?
Maybe that can help.
If not, try another kernel ... such as SpeedMod or Siyah.
Good luck !

nothing of the above has worked
i'v tried already the Siyah kernel.
is there any way to install the gingerbread bluetooth implimintation on the ics ?

No. Won't work. Different frameworks.

i hope so... it would fix the reboot when streaming issue as well.

i managed to quote the wrong reply.
as 4.0.3 and 4.0.4 are both ICS could the BT files be moved over to fix it that way ?

Hmmmm.... WHICH version of ICS?
I have no problems at all with official ICS I installed (OK, GPS lock is a bit slow, but I can live with that)...

4.0.3 has a soft reboot problem streaming to my car stereo, it seems to be quite widespread but not an issue on gingerbread or 4.0.4 roms
i have found 3 file sin system/lib that may be related to bt
libbluetoothd.so
libbluetoot.so
libbluedroid.so
i did a backup and zipped the folder structure but it refused to install the zip, probably because i have no idea what im doing!

[Q] Bluetooth related reboots - ICS (Official ROM)

Hi,
I have BT problems. While connected to my car stereo (Sony MEX-BT3900U) for a while, the phone reboots itself. After reboot the phone doesn't automatically connects to car stereo, I have to manually reconnect. I'm using the Official ICS rom (I9100DXLP7).
This occurs during audio stream & call.
Tnx for any sugestions.
Phil
Root you phone and change you kernel

I'm aware this is a noob question, but I think don't really grasp the complete flashing process:
The only thing I did was flash ROM I9100DXLP7 with Odin. I wasn't aware the kernel had to be updated manually.
Should I root first using CF-Root v5.4 LPQ, and then flash the Separate Kernel: Download (.TAR)? Both files are listed:

tnx for your help...
I have the same problem with my S2 and car stereo (Sony MEX-BT2950) had no luck after trying multiple stock / custom ROMS and even combinations of different kernels and modems. nothing worked. the only way this is going to work is to roll back to Gingerbread

I forgot to mention that this bug has happened on every ICS build i have tried right up to XXLPQ. I have just noticed there have been two releases since then, XWLP2 being the latest. i'm gonna try it and will report back with the results.

It does not its part of the firmware and root wont fix the problem either .
Although a custom kernel with a built in fix for the problem could be the answer .

good call. i'm downloading LP2 as we speak and if this does not fix the problem then I'll give one of Siyah's new beta kernels a shot as well.
EDIT: I have installed LP2 and Bluetooth streaming to the car stereo still results in a reboot after approx 15 minutes. Flashed Siyah Kernel 3.0b6 and that didn't help either. back to GB i guess.
Good news everyone!!!!!! I have found the fix! Just load following kernel (using Odin): SiyahKernel v3.0.1 (Posted on April 8, 2012). this kernel can be found at http://www.gokhanmoral.com/ . All credit go to the devolpper of the kernel.
Cheers,
Phil

Sorry but it isn't a solution. I have installed the last siyah kernel, 3.1rc6 and my phone keep on rebooting every about 15 minutes if it paired with my sony car audio system.
Has anyone found a solution?
I have the same problem. I'm using Wlp8
DULP9 and its still broken. god this sucks. im tired of having to use the slow and battery hungry GNex cos it's bluetooth, of course, works fine with my car stereo
SOLVED!!!! well for me the fix was using a CM9 based ROM. F1 Galaxy Nexus to be exact. I was able to stream via bluetooth for well over 90 minutes without any problems whatsoever. I hope this will help someone out there.
From what I can tell from some thread I found somewhere else using google, it seems that any custom rom running 4.0.4 works fine, seems to be somehow related to Samsungs 4.0.3 rom and any roms based on it (not sure about 4.0.3 roms NOT based on the Samsung rom).

My 2c.
I am having the same issues. With the ROM XXLPW the problem stopped, but this ROM is not smooth and battery friendly as XWLPD that I was using before.
Today I flashed XWLPG and guess what? The reboots came back!
Where is the Bluetooth related files? Maybe using the XXLPW in the XWLPG or XWLPD we can have a trouble free ROM and smooth at the same time.

Marcello there are 3 solutions
1. given that XWLPM firmware is based on Android 4.0.4 this *might* solve the problem (i no longer have a GS2 to verify) Beware! I *think* this rom may have the dreaded "brick bug" that could permanently damage your phone. Do NOT install CWM recovery with this rom!!!!
2. install a ROM based on CynaogenMod 9 or AOKP. both are also based on Android 4.0.4
3. If you must stay on a Samsung stock ROM then downgrade to Gingerbread.
I'm pretty sure nothing else would work. I sure hope the Galaxy S3 stock roms dont have this bug as im really considering getting one this week

God doesn't play dice with the WiFi .. ?

Authenticating, obtaining ip adress, saved then loop.
After 6 hours on google im confused totaly.
There is hundreds or thousand posts about this problem and dozens "solutions" (personaly i tried 10 or 12 of them)
How is that possible can someone explaine me.
I mean in some roms wifi working normaly and in some wont.
What is changed in those roms, what is the problem?
Any help is apreciated.
It maybe kernel ralated .
Flash sirkey new kernel and try !!
If still the problem persists then flash kernel modules found on that thread !!

I get this problem whenever I flash cm9 direct from the cm site. I was advised to go back to stock first and then flash cm. I flashed the 4.0.4 from boy racers ftf list, booted in Stock, powered off and flashed the baseband from the fxp thread, booted up. I then used cm9 from the fxp thread rather than cm9 site and got stable WiFi.
I like pratting about though, so I'm now on rooted stock 4.0.4 using the guide in this forum to create your own rom

Thanks guys, finally some answers.
Here is my situation,flashed JellySandwich 4.3 (so far perfect ICS for me), tried sirkays 7.431 (rom is developed and tested with that version) and flykernel 0.7 and flykernel 0.8.
Nothing, one or two connections, 200 tries.
Then, 6 hours before tried sirkays latest 9.587a, with him is better but stil half-half situation.
"If still the problem persists then flash kernel modules found on that thread !!" will try this,thanks.
Full wipe done, etc.
On repacked4ru rom for example everythings working perfect, never experienced single problem with wifi. (same ap,my home ap)
Once again, flashed with full wipe, cache wipe, dalwik cache wipe.
Tried multiple times,result is every time the same (also redownloaded rom) and tested same kernels with other roms, they dont cause problem by themself.
Router isnt problem.
But, that what realy frustrating me is this problem is very common on android but i didnt seen in hours of googling what realy causing him.
Tell me please guys, im a noob but not stupid and learning fast.
To cure some problem man must knows hims root, whats causing that problem.
What causing this very common problem on android, one or more things?
Thanks again (and sorry for my bad english, my english is learned from movies,music etc)
Try picking up a pure stock ftf file from boy racers thread. I have a copy of the last gb stock ftf and two stock ics ftfs stored on my pc so if I screw up, I have options. I had this problem of reconnect loops using cm9 as above and pretty much reverting back to stock was all that cured it. Once you've flashed stock you can then go about the business of putting jelly sandwich of whatever rom you want on. I've tried putting jelly sandwich on twice now have issues of my own so am sticking to rooted stock.

Tried that and 10 more solutions, thanx anyway.
My questions still remains, that problem is obviously software related, how is possible no one knows reason why is this so common problem and whats a problem.

I Have same obtaining IP problem.Wifi problems started with official update to ICS.(on GB no wifi problem) Tried all possible "solutions".Nothing works... And finally? Use only WPA security on your router, but still some connection drops. Or buy new wifi router. From information I found. Older routers may have some new standards compatibility problems

Unfortunately, WPA security isnt option.
Im not on a hardware ruter, using virtual hotspot (Connectify applications + my notebooks wifi)
No WPA support.
Im back on repacked4ru rom , no phantoms problems, all works fine (too bad, yellysandwich is a nice rom,perfect ics for me)
Greetings from Serbia
p.s. (this thread can be closed)
The problem is the dhcp client ...
To resolve this issue, I create an /etc/init.d script for delete 2 tmp dhcp files
My script 99dhcp-reinit :
#!/system/bin/sh

[Q] SGSII heating a lot while doing regular tasks

Hallo everyone!
So since a week ago i'm a proud owner of Samsung Galaxy S2 (yay!).
It had Android 2.3.5 at the beginning so 2 days ago i've updated it to ICS (4.0.3). I've updated it via ODIN (since it couldn't find updates via KIES or by air) with a official ROM (if that's what it's called) from samfirmware.
Since then my phone heats up a lot more compared to 2.3.5 , i don't know how's that possible but i haven't installed any new apps or used the phone differently since the update. I know it's normal to heat up when playing games but even if i'm browsing the web it heats up a lot. I haven't this problem with 2.3.5
Any suggestions?
Go back to 2.3.5 and wait for JB.Or try custom rom.

Hmm.. This is weird.. I'm having the same issue, but I'm having it with JellyBean ROMs.
For ICS the combination that works for me best is Cyanogenmod 9.1 and Siyah Kernel. If that still heats up, you might want to try some different modem and check out if any of them works for you. I think the stock XXKH3 modem helps.

As you might red above i'm a total newb to Android world atm , i just learned how to flash few days ago, i'm not going to mess with new modems etc. (for now). Do you guys think that if i upgrade to that leaked 4.1.2 , that might fix the problem? Also i didn't do factory reset after the upgrade to 4.0.3 because some other user from other forum told me that if i install the official 4.0.3 rom from Samsung - there's no need to do factory reset.
I would have done a factory reset,but thats just me.ICS was overheating my wifes phone,but it was the 4.0.4 thats worst.
If you are flashing modems,you should root first and backup your efs folder......and make a nand backup.

As i mentioned i won't be flashing modems and such. What would you suggest me to do from that point (aside from downgrading)?
You can only downgrade to GB.I detest ICS(rootbox was ok),so I went back to GB.
But now I use vanilla rootbox(JB) with dorimanx kernel.
Only problem Ive seen with this so far is the bloody volumes far too loud when I press keys(had to switch it off).
Anyway,whatever you do make sure you get rooted and backup your efs folder.
So i just upgraded to JB and we'll see how's it going.

is there any method to fix this without flash other rom??
im personally like stock rom.. its minim of bug..
I see you have Rage Kernel, so you have rooted your phone.
Have you removed any system apps at all?
Or done any modifications to the ROM, other that custom kernel?
What phone is the other one, you are trying to pair with? Does it happen with all other phones or only some?
I have 2 Xperia phones, both running .62 and both can send/receive via Bluetooth,
Why still runnin on .42? It's ok to prefer stock but at least update to latest .62 version!

Bluetooth Headset Not Working (Supernexus i9100 4.2.2 Build 3)

Hi,
I just flashed my GS2 9100 to Supernexus 4.2.2 Build 3. I'm enjoying this rom quite a bit. However, I'm having a problem with my bluetooth headset not having sound when i am in a call.
My headset is a blueant q2 with the lastest firmware (1.1). I have no problem pairing them, and I can hear sounds from the phone through the headset (such as vol up/down), but as soon as a call connects, there is no sound at all.
Can anyone help me? Much appreciated!
Thanks~
It looks like a glitch a dev will have to patch in the phone app. Can you hear the call when you put your phone up to your ear while the headset is paired?

update:
After trying a variety of different options including (wiping my entire phone: cache, dalvik, data, system and internal storage).
It turns out it was indeed the modem after all. After flashing (LS8) the issue was resolved. I had no idea that the modem and rom would have such specific incompatibilities (since it worked fine on NeatROM, bluetooth and all)
To other Canadian users who may be experiencing similar issues:
The Bell Canada modem for jb (UGMA5) is incompatible with Supernexus 2.0 build 3. Trying to use it results in any calls taken on bluetooth being muted for the duration of the call. You will not be able to hear or speak to your contact. Instead use a different international modem. I am using LS8.

Hi, Sorry I am new with this. I am also having the same issue with bluetooth device, I can't hear anything during a call. I actually upgraded to 4.2.2 AOKP. I have I9100M (in canada). I am wondering how can I choose the modem that's right for this phone. Also, how do I know which one is the one used by this phone just in case if something goes terribly wrong, I can revert back.
What does this modem do? I remember in the old days modem is to translate digital data over a transmission medium, is this the same in this case?
Thanks,
