Hello everyone,
I've just updated my SGP321 to stock KitKat (rooted).
I stream audio using Spotify to a Jawbone Big Jambox via bluetooth. The thing is I'm getting lots of stuttering and some drops.
After searching a bit, I tried turning off Stamina Mode but the problem persists.
It happens no matter if the song is streamed or offline.
Does anyone have this issue or any tip to solve it?
Cheers

Ok, this is definitely something with Spotify. Youtube audio is perfect.
My phone (also KitKat) doesn't have this problem... No clue whatsoever on why this happens!
Cheers
Same here
I have the same problem on my Xperia Tablet Z LTE, since KitKat upgrade.
Audio over BT studders, when wifi is on. With wifi off, it works like it used too.
Doesn't matter where the audio comes from or if it is streamed or local.
Having no problem whatsover either with Spotify or Walkman to my SBH20.
I've been getting stutter with my pair of UE BOOMS, but only when doubling up. Will try with wifi off and report back.
Didn't stream much til recently. Does anyone have positive results pre4.4.2

I have just bought a bluetooth speaker (JBL Charge) it usually works fine for a little while wioth my S3, then the connection seems to have issues, the music splutters and sometimes slows down or speeds up. I have tried connecting iphones and my nexus 10 which work fine, so I know its not the speakers.
I am using Omega ROM 45 4.2.2 but also on the 4.1.2 firmware it did the same I have done a full wipe etc.
Do you think a kernal change might solve the issue or would it be ROM related or just a dodgy bluetooth chip?
Has anyone else had issues with bluetooth sound peripherals?
Thanks for your help
Is there anyone who has no issues with Bluetooth streaming?

It might be something with ROM. usually kernel dont create problems with that unless you changed settings in kernel for amplifying the sound in bluetooth. or if you are using third party equalizers. try uninstalling third party equalizers first.
I've been streaming music to my JVC RV-NB90B with no problems.

Me, phone: c6802, build number: 14.2.A.0.290
I just got my SBH52 and test on ZU, failed to listen to music and I was thinking about the SBH52 device issue.
then I connected the SBH52 to iphone 5 with iOS7. no problem at all.
I think we need Sony to fix this firmware.
hey guys,
just managed to have it work back. simply uninstall the sbh52 app which u download from google play and it would works. but u will lose function of the sbh52.

well, i did a test just now and confirm the sbh52 app in google play cause my issue.
my issue was, i can make and hear call with sbh52, but when need to play any audio source e.g. youtube, spotify, no sound coming out from the sbh52 at all.
after i uninstall the sbh52 app download from google play, reboot and re-pair, music comes back. no the sound is very clear. but after uninstall the sbh52 app, i cant set any sbh52 setting in the Sony Connect app on ZU.

I don't see any problem about the sound quality so far . But look like after update the new version of "Smart Connect" on Google Play, the connection between ZU and SBH-52 with full function such as phone log, messages...that access on SBH-52 does not establish. Then I've removed the update version and it back to normal again!.
My ZU and SBH52 has same problem (cannot access clock, call log, message, listen music and call only), i have uninstall update of Smart Connect then my SBH52 connected normally

I have Sony SBH-50 and two devices Nexus 7 2012 (Android 4.4) and Sony Xperia SP (C5302 Android 4.1)
I have similar sound quality issue with my Nexus 7 device but with Sony Xperia SP I have no issues.
Just in case somebody checked BT sound quality on other devices with Androind 4.3+.
Maybe the issue related to Android's BT enhancmets?
Having similar issues my self there is a crackling when running music tracks and pairing up issues too. This all started after the 4.3 update.
I have unistalled and re installed the app couple times but to no positive results.
for me I hear a very slight hickup about every ten minutes when i stream audio over bluetooth, I did not have this before on 4.1
I did a factory reset when I installed the 4.3 and I dont know why this is happenning when I use my iphone on my car stereo it plays flawless
it seems there are issues with bluetooth in 4.3
aptx
I was on. 290 and didn't had any issue with my sennheiser mm400x which has aptx bluetooth profile. Just to let you know
Hi everyone,
does anyone else also have problems with bluetooth audio? I'm using my z5c with two different audio devices (car stereo and a jbl bluetooth box) and the audio signal is stuttering quite often. I tried using different apps (so far Audible and Deezer) and with both I get the stuttering. When I disable and enable bluetooth again sometimes it works fine for a while and then it turns bad again. Most of the times the stuttering is back immediately after reconnecting. The same happens after restarting the app. When I'm switching to headphones or the internal speaker I don't have any stuttering at all.
Any ideas on how to fix this? If it stays with Android 6.0 I might have to send the phone in.
Same, very rare audio gaps with BT and stock player and spotify

Had that happen a few times. Stuttering not related to distance or other apparent reasons. Also phone slows down like crszy sometimes. I think stock rom is plain ****.
Happens very often when using Garmin Fenix 2 with HR monitor in the same time. If the watch is to close to phone then sometimes I hear nothing - but I think it's Garmin's fault.
Doesn't happen at all in my case
I have not noticed any stuttering while connected to the Bluetooth in my car (Acura TSX) or my Homewerks Bluetooth speakers in my house.
This is CONSTANT for me while using a variety of bluetooth headphones/speakers. Usually if I pause the music for a moment, it'll stop doing it for a while. But it's driving me insane today. I do usually have the phone paired with a Moto 360 as well, but I haven't noticed a difference whether it's connected or not.
Strange. I use BT audio all the time with 3 different BT devices, and never experience stuttering. I do use a 3rd party player (GoneMAD Music Player), not sure if that is part of it.
I had this issue constantly with my Z Ultra, had no issue with my Z3 Compact, after ~4 months started having it constantly with my S6 Edge, and I noticed it twice with my Z5 Compact.
I think it's something Android related rather than something Sony-specific (and definitely not phone-specific).
I use it with a wireless Sony loudspeaker. My z3 compact never stuttered. My z5 compact (with the same speaker) does stutter a little, especially if i hold it. If it's on a table it is fine.

I don't experience stuttering at all, but I do however have the problem that the audio is too loud... Even on the lowest setting, audio through bluetooth headphones is almost too loud to listen to
Having connected the Z5 Compact to a Sony SBH-20 Bluetooth headset, I can confirm the stuttering issue. With music coming from Play Music the stutter happens sometimes and will not stop appearing until I stop and start the music. This also happens with navigation voices from Maps app.
Is this a Z5 Compact specific error or Android 5.x? My Motorola Razr i (4.4) never had this issue.

Not sure if this applies to every case, but the stuttering in my case I found out was due to accidentally touching or holding the phone near the fingerprint sensor.
What this generates is a music playback gap (no phone vibration or other sound, which makes hard to understand what is happening). Tested with bluetooth headphones, Sony AS600BT.
I am having all kind of issues using audio on Bluetooth devices... And I have to do the pairing again every time I want to use one of these devices. It never connects automatically. I don't know if the app Throw or Smart connect have something to do with it.
Is this issue commonplace? I regularly use several pairs of Bluetooth headphones to listen to music with my phones. I've never had an issue with any Android devices stuttering over Bluetooth (Not since the Droid X2, anyways.), so I'm concerned by this. I had a Lumia 950 XL that had the issue, but a replacement seemed to solve that.
Just wondering, as I'm expecting my Z5c to be delivered Monday. Sorry for the necro!
I have the same issue with my Sony Z5 Compact, Audio through Bluetooth was working perfectly fine before Android 6.0 Software update, since the update the audio is very choppy/stuttering quite badly, even if the bluetooth earphones/reciever (Sony SBH20) is sat untop of the phone, I have tried different recievers/earphones, tried turning all apps off, turning wifi off, switching bluetooth on/off etc tried different music apps... tried most things, it happens at home/office and happens outside too, so my guess it's a Sony Bluetooth issue that has been effected by the Android Update.
Stuttering/chopping badly here as well... Using BT to a 2016 Volvo. Especially if the phone is used at the same time, no matter the load.
Had no problem before Marshmallow.
it's interesting... the last 5.x update solved the problem on my phone and the marshmallow update didn't change the fact... have you tried to reflash the firmware?
Found a possible solution which at least works temporarily in my case. Stuttering didn't happen since I performed the following:

Hi everyone,
I resolved Bluetooth audio stuttering on my Z5 Compact by wiping the cache partition.
This can be done the following way:
1. Go to Home screen
2. Press and hold both keys 5 seconds : Power + Volume Up
3. The smartphone should vibrate 3 times when done, and shutdown
4. Power on
The issue should be fixed.
This works on my Z5 Compact, I hope this can help you too.

I saw this at the Sony support forum as well but said method did not help my bluetooth problems
First of all, hello!
Ok, so I've been having this problem with the phone since I received it: When I want to transfer the audio of the phone to an LG Home Cinema via Bluetooth, the audio doesn't sound properly (sometimes nothing comes out of the speakers and sometimes half of a second of the song plays but very distorted, but in the phone it is displayed that the song is playing). I tried to pair the audio of the phone with a mini speaker that also supports Bluetooth and the Redmi Note 2 works just fine with it.
I've changed the rom several times since I bought the phone (MIUI always, I'm currently on 7.1.0 Stable) but the issue is still there.
My previous phone, a Mi3, worked well with the Home Cinema and also every other phone that I link to the speakers also work well so it's definitely a problem with the Redmi Note 2 and this LG Home Cinema in particular.
Any suggestions or thoughts on this?
Thank you!
I am having the same issue with bluetooth headphones...audio stuttering is horrible + some peak distortion...I`ve tried anything (change build.prop,disable wifi,disable bluetooth log) but no change.
The headphones are not defective as they work properly with PC or other device with android 4.2.2.
Same here. Annoying stuttering in bluetooth headset.
I'm using weekly dev builds from xiaomi.eu
No problems here with the global developer version. Works like a charm with Bose Soundlink Mini and Creative T12 Wireless.
Bluetooth stuttering....

Does work fine with miui though... BUT.
For me so far, bluetooth audio stutters very rarely, but it does stutter now and then. No distortion, however.
Currently on xiaomi.eu v6.2.25 about to move on to v6.3.24 beta
Hi guys,
I am facing a awful problem with bluetooth handset (Plantronics Blackbeat) and stock ROM
When connected in bluetooth, music plays fine, but I cannot get the music paused through Bluetooth headset. However, changing tracks works fine. Clearing bluetooth data and reboot the phone makes things to works, but only one time !!
How can I get this issue fixed ? Does someone else 's facing this issue ?
I am using Poweramp and YouTube Vanced if it may help.
No problems with IconX (2018), the pause button works fine, maybe it's a problem from the bluetooth headset, have you tried with other phones/devices?
No problem here with Redmi airpods.

This has already been discussed, no solution for now. Let's hope Android 10 solves the problem.
