[Q] Droid Razr Bluetooth Pairing - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Currently have a Droid Razr Maxx which I connect to my radio via bluetooth. Everytime the radio connects to the device the Razr asks me to confirm the connection. This happens on multiple blue based ICS roms. I have not been able to try and ASOP based roms because HDMI currently does not work with them (and is required to use the radio). This does not happen on my droid incredible 2 running GB. Can anyone direct me as to where I could begin looking to try and either correct the problem or bandaid it so that the pairing request is automaticly accept? The request normally only pops up for about 2 seconds and then closes. I have tried to automate clicking the pair button with tasker but the button presses are not fast enough and the dialog closes.
Thank you in advance,
Cyro

Bluetooth audio works but no phone

Running newest OTA ROOT ROM now but ever since I rooted to 2.1 the BT ausio works but not the Handsfree for phone. I am also running a leaked 2.1 eris and it to wont connect to phone. My Moto headset will work but not the Pioneer hed unit. Any one else having this issue or found a resolution???
I'm having a similar issue. When I connect to my Jabra Cruiser, this voice says it's connected, the phone reads that it's connected, but when I check it in the settings, all it says is that it is connected to phone media, and doesn't stream anything through the Cruiser. I can't use it for phone calls and it also won't stream my music like it did prior to the flash.
I'm running
Firmware - 2.1
Baseband - 2.41.05.02.03
Kernel - 2.6.29-564a4a15

Build - 2.6.605.4 CL140744 release-keys
Software - 2.26.506.4
any ideas on how to get the ability to use bluetooth back?
I use my bluetooth handsfree in my 2008 Accord every day. I've NEVER had an issue with it until the new 2.1 rooted roms. It would connect to my phone and dial the number, but the audio would come out of the phone instead of my car speakers. This also only happened sometimes, not all the time..
However, I recently flashed Evil Eris v1.1 and I have yet to experience any issues with it. Bluetooth has been working flawlessly for me. I'm still unable to transfer my contact list to my car though. I thought this was supposed to be possible with 2.1?
hopefully a dev will read this and be able to give some input on my idea.
Since I'm not 100% sure how to do it, I want to give my idea and see if it will work...
I downloaded the milestone 2.1 apk dump file that I found floating around and was seeing what apps were worth anything. The only one I may use is the MotoPortal app. It seems to launch on the Eris, I just haven't been able to try it out fully yet... Anyways... Back to issue... I noticed that there was apk files for bluetooth.
Is there any way to rip the bluetooth apk from another ROM and replace the bluetooth stuff on the Eris? Like maybe revert back to the bluetooth apk from 1.5 so we can fix the bluetooth issue with 2.1?
Just a thought. i'll be a guinea pig if someone could give me a how-to.
So... I tried dumping in the Milestone 2.1 bluetooth file into a zip of the eris official 0.5.4 ROM I had to see if maybe replacing the file would work. Well, after wiping my phone, I tried the install, and here is what it gave me.
Install from sdcard...
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Verifying update package...
E:Wrong digest:
system/app/Bluetooth.apk
E:Verification failed
Installation aborted.
Does anyone have any other ideas on how to get bluetooth working correctly on 2.1?
BT audio is working for me but calls will not. I had the same problem on 1.5 though. My wife's Moto Droid works perfect on the same unit.
This worked for me.
I had the same problem when I rooted with Grdlock's Rom. I switched to SENSE-ABLE and was able to get both phone and music to BT with my Sony car radio. Could just be a coincidence...but it works great!
I tried the Sense-able rom, and my phone is still doing the same thing as before. Hopefully since the update for the Droid is out, we aren't too far behind.
I ran the Vanilla Rom the other day after a wipe and now I am having no bluetooth issues. I'm not sure if it is just the other roms or if any of the nexus stuff was causing it but I'm good to go now.
I'm only using the nexus lock on my phone. no live wallpapers or nexus theme anymore.

[Q] Bug on bluetooth after Gingerbread update

I searched the internet and apparently many of Atrix owners are experiencing the same problem as me.
After upgrading to Gingerbread, my car does not automatically "connect" to my Atrix via bluetooth, i have to do it manually every time!
Theoretically there is an option under security that allows devices to connect to bluetooth even with the cell phone locked, and this should solve the problem, but it does not!
Just found out that even when i connect it manually, the connection drops in the middle of the phone call and i have to take the phone and use it without the bluetooth....
Have any of you guys had this problem? And does any one know how to solve this? Maybe changing basebands or ROMs?
I already tried different kernels (faux 1.2 and 1.6) and had no luck.
Thanks
I was having this issue with my headset and Alien ROM V3, but I upgraded to v4 last night and the problem is gone. Hope this helps.
I just found out another aspect of this error.
Me, and everybody else who is having this problem, also reports that even when we sync the cell manually on the car's stereo, the bluetooth just stop working in the middle of a phone call.
It's really a serious bug, and there are a lot of Atrix owners unhappy about this one...
Maybe if i start using another ROM, someone other than Motorola will have this fixed...
Just to keep you guys updated, i installed CM7 pre-beta 2 and bluetooth is working fine now.
It is a bug on stock gingerbread for sure...

How to pair(almost) any phone with TouchPad to send and recv SMS/Calls!!! Like Pre3

Make sure you follow these steps exactly! If you don't, you will have to do a webOS doctor and start from the beginning to get it to work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Things to do first!
Download freeTether from Preware.
On your phone, go into where the bluetooth settings are. Turn on messaging access or MAP. (these settings are in all cyogen roms and a lot of other phone too, like sensation and MyTouch)
Make sure you turn off WiFi during the pairing, it can confuse it. You can turn it back on after if you want.
In freeTether make sure you enable "Auto BT Tether " in general preferances and enable "PAN profile" in bluetooth pref.
Turn on touchpad and phones bluetooth now!
Tethering time!
1st - Launch freetether and just leave it running.
2nd - have your phone search for devices.
3rd - You should see the Touchpad, but don't pair it on your phone yet! Now launch the bluetooth setting on your touchpad(don't close freetether though)
4th - Now pair with your touchpad on the phone. Wait until you see a pairing request on the touchpad bluetooth settings screen. It comes up at the bottom. Accept there and then finish on your phone and your done.
5th - you can now close freetether just don't uninstall it. From now on both devices will automatically recognize each other so all you have to do is turn on the bluetooth on the touchpad and touch your devices name that's saved under bluetooth settings.
Hit "Thanks" and Enjoy!

This enables you to use your TouchPad as your phone basically. The TouchPad comes with a Phone Dialer and and a messaging app installed already, so you don't need to download anything extra to get it to work. The TouchPad was designed to only pair with other WebOS phones to use the SMS/Calling, this is a way around that to allow you to use other OS's.
And no bluetooth headset is needed, calls play over the speakers on the TouchPad.
very cool will try this later tonight thanks!
Can you please edit the "Motorola Droid Charge" to the "Samsung Droid Charge"? I saw it like that in the Palm forum and it really irritates me!

Fixed just for you, my bad! Haha
don't see the messaging access setting on desire running miui pretty good find though!
Some Phones/Roms dont require you to active the MAP. So Give it a shot anyways. Worse comes to worse, the calls will still work for ya.
Sounds very cool... Will try it.
Sent from my CM7 Atrix!
htc evo 3d has report issues and will resend the texts sent from the hp touchpad once the phone is restarted.
mine did it.
I have a Samsung Infuse 4G but it does not "find" the Touchpad when I do a search on the phone. Both bluetooths are turned on. Also on the TP, what do you select to find the phone? Do you choose Audio or Other?
On the 'Free Tether' app a circle symbol has appeared next to Bluetooth and it also shows as on, yet my android phone is picking up the touchpad
Any ideas?

Well you shouldnt be doing the paring from the TouchPad, you should be doing it on your phone and then wait for a pop up on the TouchPad. You will probably need to doctor your TouchPad and start over now. From some reason if you make a mistake with the pair process the TouchPad won't allow it with that phone again.

If you can't see your TouchPad on your phone Or your phone on your TouchPad under the bluetooth settings, then the only thing that I can recommended trying is doing a WebOS doctor and starting from the beginning. Like I said in a previous post, there are so many phones and Rom out there the pairing will be different with a lot of them. Just play around with it and post how you got it to work here!
So I managed to pair my Milestone 1(droid) with TP. I can answer phone calls with TP but I can't dial out. Furthermore, text messaging doesn't receive and I don't know how to send one.
Any ideas?
PS: This is so fun to answer a phone with my TP though!!! Thanks a million!
Can confirm voice calls work with Photon 4g, text messaging does not
ive tried it but i dont see a pop up screen om the touchpad to inter the password...
Great guide, many thanks.
Calls working on my Desire with CM7 and HD2 with WM7 (mango)
SMS not working though, would be v interested if anyone can fiddle it so it works!
This didn't work for my HTC Inspire. The phone didn't find the TouchPad at all.

[Q] Bluetooth Pairing Request

Hi all,
Having a little issue and was wondering if anyone could come up with a work around. I am currently using my Razr with a Pionner appradio 2 running ARLiberator. Everything is working great except the bluetooth pairing request. Everytime the device attempts to make a secure connection with the Razr it ask for a pairing request on the phone that last for about 2 seconds. I have attempt to automate the accepting of the dialog with Tasker but the dpad action is too slow to hit the "Pair" button in time. I have also tried using Keyevents through execute plugin through tasker with the same results. I remember on my Incredible 2 that I could set a device as "trusted" or something like that so it didnt ask every time I connected. I havent been able to try CM9/10 or AKOP because the Appradio requires HDMI to function.
Can anyone come up with a way to automated accepting the Pair request, or does anyone know where I might be able edit a file to set a device as "trusted" even through the menu option isnt available through blueooth settings?
Thanks,
Cyro

[Q] Weird sound bug with CN JB on XT910

Hi, I am seeing a weird issue with the behavior of my XT910 when pluggin in head phones.
Basically, It can recognize the head phones but it causes complete loss of sound on my device. When I try to play a ringtone via the settings menu, I get an ANR for the Settings app.
Now even if i plug out the head phones, the status bar still shows the head phones icon. I need to restart the device to get sound back.
After a restart the phone again behaves normally for a while until I plug out the head phones and leave it over night. The next day I face the same issue
This never happened on my device with ICS before and even with JB custom ROMs like Dtrails's D-wiz.
Could this be a kernel issue or just a bug in the JB ROM? Also, has this type of thing happened to anyone else?
Some details about my device:
Moto Razr XT910 running a rooted CN JB leak with BMM 0.3.2 and CID erased.
