I purchased mine yesterday. Once the WOW effect wore off, came the disappointments..
The bluetooth is terrible. Lots of static in my Plantronics Voyager Pro, and also it pairs with my Nissan BT handsfree, but only connects the first time, afterwards its not possible to connect to it anymore.
Flashed to the latest KE7, factory reset, did not help at all.
How can such an expensive phone be like this? Bluetooth is one of the most important features in a phone...
I have the same pairing issue like you. Don´t get my Sony Bluetooth headset to work. Tested it with two devices.
I have car bt xplode System and i never had it so good. Always connects. It does skip if wifi is on though. I had the same issue with gs1.

Happily mine works nice, with SonyEricsson a2dp stereo headset, Belkin a2dp receiver, a nokia handsfree (not sure about the model), the file transfer is faaaaaast
It has paired everything I used it with and no problems so far.
The sound is even better than it is via my retired iphone.
does anyone tried working with SE LIVEVIEW.
My N1 had truble, and looking forword to SGS2 and don't know yet if it is OK.
Also have problem with a Plantronic Discovery 975. Statics and stuttering sound. No problem pairing though and it is the same (bad) sound quality if I'm near or 5 m away.
I'm on KE7 firmware.
Wow, should this be added to the official bug list?
For me, bluetooth intermittently skips if wifi is turned on. Once I turn wifi off, its crystal clear. This has happened on all my different bluetooth headsets so if other are experiencing the same thing, I think this is definitely an "official bug".
Mine skips, and randomly drops connection to my JVC car stereo requiring a reboot. Back and forward buttons don't work reliably either.
Anyone who says theirs is clear is wrong. They just don't have an ear for decent sound quality. The bitpool on every Android phone (including Cyanogen) is horribly low and it really shows in the mid-high tones (ie hi-hats). No-ones is different.
Worst of all, sometimes if I get out of my car, I'll get a 'hot' leg where the device is overheating from the bluetooth going nuts. I feel like it's damaging my SGS2.
Yapp, can confirm that turning of wifi stopped the stuttering. Sound isn't great but probably usable. Defenitly a bug?

Any progress on this yet? Mine drops the sound quite a lot. Remains connected but just no sound and does this about every 15 minutes, requiring bluetooth to be turned on and off.
First let me start off by saying, my bluetooth pairs well with my Motorola S7HD and the sound to ME is DECENT until you put it in your pocket and from there it gets "staticky" somewhat but not too bad.
As for the car, I have to manually pair the phone to the car stereo every time. Sometimes it would connect it to automatically. The sound to MOST of us in the car is fine. Keep in mind most of us aren't audiophiles. If it plays well, understandable, and without any static, it's a ok in my book.
The suckerpunch is that sometimes the bluetooth would drop connection now and then. I need to do a restart on the phone to get it flowing again. Meh.
If anyone finds a fix, please tell
i also get crappy sound quality, but whats worse is, that neither the mic nor the earplugs work on my BT headset when i try to answer a call! (sony ericsson mw600 headset)
only when i pause the call and resume it, the headset works!
did anyone experienced this?
solved it by disabling wifi....seems to be a common android issue
Any progress on this issue?
E.g. does 2.3.4 improve?
Hi @all,
I noticed a (bluetooth) headset issue while calling (not only in this rom, even in all roms i have tested): when wifi is on, crack sounds make every call inaudible.
It happens with plantronics voyager 520 and BMW professional (2011) car kit.
I can't believe having the best phone with such an error.
Suspending wifi, stops the crack sounds, but the quality of headset calls is much worse than with my "old" SGS1.
I use my phone two hours a day for calling. I'm not amused about this fact.
Other surveillances?

Hey everyone,
Has anyone noticed bluetooth issues? I've pointed them out in other threads, but they seem to be glossed over. I hate to seem like a noob by creating new threads, but I fear that the issue is being looked over by most people. I've read a few reports of people having issues with their phones connecting to their cars or headsets automatically. Has anyone else faced these issues?
I specifically cannot get my BT headset to connect unless I unpair and repair it everytime I want to use it. Sometimes even during a phone call the headset will drop connection and wont reconnect unless i turn it off and on a few times. For reference, I've tried multiple BT headsets and they all behave the same way. These headset's also work just fine with my Galaxy S2, just not with my S3 (international on XLE8)
No problems with bluetooth here and I use it a lot (HS3000, Logitech Boombox, PS3 and Wii controllers too).
No issues here. Phone sometimes doesn't pair automatically with the BT kit in my work car, but I've had that issue with my S1 and S2 in the same car so I'd say it's a problem with the headunit.
Works perfectly with the Sony headunit in my own car, and connects to my mate's fine.
ok, what firmware rev are you guys running? im going nuts not being able to use bluetooth here!!
somewhat related.
i often leave my sgs3 connected to my laptop via usb when i fall asleep. at morning, battery's charged 100% obviously and phone isn't hot.
last time around, i was listening to music via hm3700 bluetooth headset. then later turned off the bluetooth headset. i forgot to turn off the bluetooth on sgs3 and again fell asleep while it's still connected via usb to laptop.
when i woke up at morning as usual battery's charged 100% but the sgs3 was hot, not so hot but isn't anywhere the normal hot we're accustomed to.
connects automatically to my car's BT built-in system. Only needed to pair once.
Works very well with my Sennheiser PXC 310 BT.
If I switch on the headphones the phone automatically connects to it.
can everyone please detail their firmware/kernel they are using?
i am on XXALE8, with the stock kernel
I have problems on XXLE8 as well connect it to my car head unit and it acrually crashes the headunit after 5 mins being connected . After the heaf unit crashes 3 times it requires a pin code. Iphone 4, 4s and gs2 connect no issues.

thanks for your input, i upgraded to XALF5 and still having the same issues. this is frustrating!!!!
Oddly - my phone will automatically connect to my cars in-built BT system, but it won't auto connect to my Jawbone Era without switching BT of and back on....
I also have problems, with my build-in bt in my car. Have XXBLH3. Connect fine, but drop the connection 2-3min after. My SGSII have no problems
No Ringtone through Bluetooth
Okay here is my problem……I want my custom ringtones i have set for contact to play in my Bluetooth headset when a receive a call, not that dumb ring. That way I will know if I want to take the call or not because I can tell by the ringtone who is calling. Why would Samsung disable this feature. my iPhone 4s plays the ringtone I have setup when I get a call. Is there anyway to do this. I ride a motorcycle and I have a device called a Chatterbox that let’s me connect via Bluetooth to my phone so I can hear my music and talk and make calls while I am riding. On my iPhone 4s my music would pause my custom ringtone would play and I could decide it I wanted to take the call or send it to voicemail, then my music would start right back up from where it left off. Right now my Galaxy i717 and my Galaxy i747 (Note and S III) just play this annoying ring and I can’t tell who it is! Any have a fix or work around for this.
Hmmm, the sound on my cars bluetooth gets distorted and only a reconnect will fix, and more worringly sometimes the S3 will not wake up after disconnecting from my car and only a hard reset will solve it.
My S2 did pretty much the same thing.
Hi all,
Since I got my S3, I've been connecting it to my car's built-in bluetooth headset for music and for phone calls, and it's been working flawlessly.
Anyway, about 2 weeks ago it started making weird noise when I'm trying to call someone. At first I thought it's a connection issue, I hang up and call again, and it works fine. But at the moment, it happens all of a sudden during phone calls.
The issue is that the phone itself is still working earpiece and mic even while the bluetooth headset is connected and the bluetooth headset green button is ON. Which creates an audio loop and makes all the static and noise.
I've read that people started getting this after the JB update, with me it happened so slowly, I'm not rooted to try ICS back again. However, I tried to diagnose by connecting my old XPERIA arc to the car and my GS3 to another bluetooth headset. Same problem with the other headset, while the arc and the car work perfectly together.
I also tried to disable NFC and even removed the NFC sticker from the car completely....still the same problem.
Any idea how to fix this, or even bring it up to samsung to try to fix in the next update?

I had a similar issue when connected to my friends bose. Ended up with noise coming through, it might just be bluetooth, can be a bit funny at times.
Car bluetooth audio feedback
Helo,
I'm trying to revive this thread... I have also problems with audio feedback from my original embedded bluetooth car kit.
have a Toyota Avensis and I get a terrible feedback noise when making out calls from my phone.
I tried playing with many settings, like noise reduction etc', but none helped.
All this started since I updated to Android 4.1.X (from 4.0.4). At 4.0.4 there is no problems at all.
I see that it takes a while to the phone to actually dial. From the time that I push the call button to the actual dialing, the microphone is active and is directly feeding the audio system, which results in this annoying audio feedback.
In my mind, the microphone should be muted till the call is made... but it is on. When I wear a BT earpiece, there is no problem since there is no audio feedback path from the mic to the earpiece. but when hooked with the CAR kit there is a direct audio path between the mic and loudspeaker.
I'm sure I'm not the only one suffering from this problem. please post here if you suffered such problems.
Please post if you managed to solve the problem.
I am currently running with the latest 4.1.2 update - same frustrating problem.
no solution for feedback noise....anywhere
It seems to be a mystery. I've checked a number of forum posts with this problem and absolutely no solution. I also suddenly began experiencing this problem in my car's hands free blutooth system. Sometimes it happens, other times not. I usually switch the phone to headset then back again to make it stop. But it's becoming more frequent and the headset switch seems to be lasting for a short perios before it starts again. I've seen posts mentioning grounding issues and others that say it's normal because of the car speakers (like putting a microphone close to a speaker). This is NOT normal. I have never experienced this with a hands free system and a phone. Also, the fact that I have been using this for some months with no problem. I did however notice that when I am not using the hands free and I put my s3 on speakerphone, it sometimes switches back to headset for no reason at all. If anyone has found a solution please post it because right now in the interverse...there is none. Will do the same if I don't crush this s3 for being so annoying while in the car first.

I've been going nuts with a similar problem and it started happening after the 4.1.2 update as well. When I make a call I sometimes get an ear shattering blast of static for about 1 or 2 seconds just before the call connects. My wife has the same problem and she uses her phone all the time and she's going deaf. We both have Moto's Razr Maxx. Verizon gave he a new phone, it worked phone for about 2 weeks and now it's having problems again. This really sucks and I think we need to buy new phones. If anyone has a solution I would sure like to hear it.
Hi all,
I am facing a weird problem with the audio jack in my galaxy s3. Strangely i can only hear sound from one ear.. i tried several headphones and cables the only way to get sound on both side is to keep playing with the cable and trying to find a ''sweet spot'' or to push the jack only halfway.
i don't know if this is a common problem but i made the (stupid) mistake of buying i9300 in canada so i don't think there is any way to get samsung to fix it.
I would like to know if anyone faced the same problem and how to fix it ?
thank you
Hi.
Same problem for me. I've bring back my phone where I bought and they have changed it.
And the new phone no longer has the problem !
the thing is that the i9300 was never officially released in north america... i guess i'll have to buy bluetooth headphones
Hi!
I bought a Plantronics M165 MARQUE 2 headset for my S3 and since day one i've had problems like:
Can't here the caller, very loud noise at the caller end when i answer the call.
Often i have to pair the device again to get media sound, sometimes it connects just to the media sound.
Droping connection in the middle of a call and so on.
Can someone please tell me if i am alone with this problem?
I have flashed now a Nordic ROM latest 4.1.2 ROM (See sig).
I have gotten 1 new device from Plantronics sent to me and that one is the one i have now and are having similair problem with.
At Plantronics they now want to blame my S3 and want me to send it in for repair or check up because he thinks it can't use a BlueTooth device newer than 2 year because my old Plantronics M20 headset is working fine and have had 0 problems.
