Bluetooth issues - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

For some reason, I cant get any bluetooth headsets to connect to my phone, is this a normal problem with the phone?

I don't know of any known issues and never had any problems with multiple brands of headsets, remote speakers and cars. I always try to delete everything from the Bluetooth pairings and then setup your headpiece for new pairing. For the Jawbra type I use, I hold down a button for 15 seconds to clear and pairings then start the scanning process, make sure you are able to be seen and shouldn't have any problems. It's about as easy as pairing to your car, maybe easier and shouldn't take more than 1 min.

Bluetooth not reconnecting

When working i wear my bluetooth and leave the phone in the truck, and when i return to the truck, my bluetooth doesnt reconnect automaticly. Shouldnt it?

I to would like to know im always reconnecting after break and lunch at work this would be awesome if it connected on its own when im in range.
What worked for me was to leave BT on on the phone and then when I started my truck or turned on the radio the phone would reconnect with my BT radio. For some reason it worked better with the phone on first then the radio. This has been my experience with the Streak and a couple of Motorola android phones.

[Q] Simultaneous Bluetooth Connections on the Evo 3D

I'm thinking about purchasing the Cobra iRadar Radar Detector for my car but I'm wondering if this can be synced up to my Evo 3D since it connects using bluetooth at the same time my car's bluetooth phone system is connected. To my understanding I thought only one piece of hardware could be connected to a device via bluetooth at a time but the more people I talk too the more I hear that it depends on the devices involved and what their bluetooth specifications allow. So if anybody knows anything about this issue involving the Evo 3D I'd be much appreciative for any help that could shed some light on this...Thanks!
If it using the same protocol it likely will not work. I was able to get my stereo headset (phone and media) and my BT keyboard connected at the same time. However, i think i needed to connect the keyboard first and it would not auto reconnect when i turned the screen back on.

From my (limited) understanding Bluetooth allows for 7 simultaneous connections. But, like the poster before me stated, it probably won't work if they are using the same protocol-you will have issues connecting 2 a2dp devices at the same time. I'm not sure what the cobra uses... You might want to field this question to cobra directly, or on their forums. Certainly they tested this or some customer has.
There is also a possibility that Bluetooth 3.0 in the phone might change this as well. I can say from personal experience that things get iffy with my Kenwood head unit in my car with the 3d, an ipad, and a nook color... Hardly able to say which device is at falt in that loop though-and its 3 devices hooked to the head unit, not to the phone.

mutliple devices can be synced but only one device can be using particular bluetooth feature at a time.
Example:
Car Stereo has Bluetooth
My Phone can be connected to Bt Phone
My Ipod Touch can be connected to BT Audio
Both connected at the same time

[Q] Bluetooth disconnecting

I enjoy listening to my podcast's all day long. However, my bluetooth disconnects without warning nor is it predictable. The bluetooth indicator is lit blue as if is connected. Also, in settings, there is no sign of it being disconnected. The only way to get my bluetooth to reconnect is to toggle my bluetooth off and then on again.
I tried to replicate the issue at the Best Buy where i bought the phone, but had no luck getting this to happen. Best Buy replaced the phone only to find out that i still have the same issue.
I typically use Dogcatcher for podcasts. Uninstalled it and started using Stitcher. Unfortunately still getting this issue. Even went as far as buying a different brand of stereo bluetooth headset.
Any one have any ideas?
Sorry, no idea. Try posting in the Motorola Owner's Forum and see if the Moto techs can shed some light on it.
Just for reference....I use a Blueant Q1 headset and Motorola S10HD headphones and no issues with disconnects, at least with music or audiobooks.
I was actually going to post something about this but haven't got around to it. Mine disconnects all the time, I have to shut off/on and then it will reconnect. It sucks. Also, when I put my phone in my pocket when I'm on my phone I get some very crappy sounds through my BT. I mean, its like 3 ft away max, through cloth, why would that matter? Is the BT radio on this phone really that bad? Anyone else having similar issues?
I remember this happening with my first phone but I thought it was my earpiece. I have upgraded my earpiece, still doing the same thing and has gotten worse lately. But the other thing is that I can walk pretty far away 30-40 feet before she disconnects, in my house around walls and such, so I don't get it.
-DJ
I'm having the same bluetooth sound issues as you DJ, except I don't hafta have the phone in my pocket. If I put the phone to my other ear I can hear the caller thru the headset & it stutters in the bluetooth.

I'll give Moto techs a try. Otherwise, its too difficult to replicate the problem at the Sprint Store. All they do is wipe the phone and hand it back to me which is not acceptable. Especially when i explain to them that i have tried this with no improvement.
Thanks guys for your input.
This used to happen with my EVO as well so I wasn't shocked when it happens with the photon from time to time. What happens is that the media connection gets lost while the headset is still connected to the phone audio. I use a Jawbone ICON and ERA and it happens with both. I listen through my headsets all day every day so I'm pretty used to it. Usually if I un-pair and re-pair the headset it solves it for a while. Just make sure the headset says its connected to both phone and media audio.Hopefully it will be corrected through an update soon. I'm sure they have a long list of stuff to repair...
I have the same BT audio disconnects as others while I was listening to stream music, very frustrasting, I had the phone swapped due to other issue, but this still happened very randomly. Infact, as the other poster said above, BT audio disconnects also happened to my previous HTC phones(Diamond, EVO 4G & EVO 3D)as well.
im having same issue with blue parrot headset
glad to know I aint the only one with this problem, hopefully a fix is in the works
I have a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and my Photon practically refuses to play my visual voicemails through it. When I attempt to play a voicemail, the scrub bar runs through it in like 1 second even though the voicemail may be 2 minutes long and no sound is heard through the BT. If I then disconnect and reconnect the BT, the message(s) will play properly for a short time. So most times, I either disconnect BT to play my messages through the speakerphone or earpiece or I dial into my voicemail with my BT. Overall, it is a frustrating situation. However, I guess things could be worse.
I have a similar issue with Bluetooth for HID devices (mouse / keyboard). I have the webtop hdmi hack in place. I haven't tested this with the latest ota yet.

I have a blue ant q2, and t1 with this issue, which also manifested itself in my EVO 4G
Disconnect from car handsfree
Looks like I have same issue,if I am in my car and talking over car bluetooth build-in system it will disconnect after some time, need to toggle bluetooth button on phone screen to send it back. I never had this problem with Epic4g before. I am in battery safe mode is it possible that after awile phone think that it can shutdown bluetooth. I am rooted but using battery mode without ant 3rd party app. Also can someone post link to related Motorola tech forum described above gor Photon 4G?

I agree with this statement for sure.
After doing some searching, I found this thread.. I'm having the same issue with a photon I picked up acouple of weeks ago. I'm running stock root. Is there a fix for this, or is a custom rom a way to fix it?
Thanks

[Q] Loosing Bluetooth pairing

After the pairing procedure for the Galaxy SII to the Vehicle (uconnect), it works fine. Turning off the phone and back on, still remains paired. However, if we were to turn off the bluetooth and GPS for battery life on the phone and then turn it back on when I want to pair, the phone looses the memory of the pairing and we need to re-pair it. This wouldn't be a huge deal except that uconnect make you delete the pairing phone and resync it, a real pain in the @$$. Did you experience this and am I missing something that can be done in the phone setting to not loose the pairing when bluetooth is turn off/on on the phone.
Thanks

Never had a problem with mine losing pairing. Has another device been able to hold a pairing to it in the past?
What's a "uconnect"? It doesn't rely on remote power being hooked up correctly by any chance does it?

Sorry about that. Uconnect is the Bluetooth service installed on Dodge vehicles in North America.
The Uconnect holds 2 phones, in my case a Blackberry and the GSII. If I was to turn off Bluetooth on the blackberry and then later reactivate it, the blackberry does not forget the pairing and they pair with no problem. However, if I was to turn off the Bluetooth on the GSII, it seems to forget and I need to start the whole pairing process all over again.
EDIT: lol, I'm a product of French Canadian bilingualism, I can't spell for crap
I keep my BT on full time, but just out of curiosity i followed your steps and no such issue on my Nissan factory radio bluetooth. Probably some weird compatibility issue.

I have 1000xm2 - no problems whatsoever.
Are you sure you're getting your phones into Bluetooth pairing mode (long press on the power button, till you hear the prompt)
I am having the same issue as @haidar7 . I have reset my Mate 20 Pro twice and tried to pair with my JVC HA-EC20BT headphones 20+ times in different areas around my house. I know its not the headphones as they connect no problem with BB Key2. The only thing I can get my Mate 20 Pro to get to pair to is my Desktop PC. JVC headphones do not register at all on my phone Bluetooth.
If anyone has any solutions, I am certainly open to them.
I was having the same issue, then changed the mame of the phone un BT settings avoiding using spaces.
Give a try.

I ended up selling da phone
I got Note 9. Managed to connect it to my bluetooth deadphone no problem whatsoever.
Started to believe that Huawei has some bluetooth issues with a number of devices.

Nah it's fine with about 4 different pairs of headphones i've used, Bose, Sony, AKG and Panasonic. Note 9 is okay, I have a 512gb version as my backup phone, its just a bit big and the camera isn't as good.

Maybe check the number of "Maximum connected Bluetooth audio devices" under Developer options in Networking part. I also had some issues due to Smartwatches. After changing it to 3, no problems whatsoever.
