Hiya,
So I managed to get my phone rooted and flashed a new ROM or two (PACMan and CM10 and 11) and in each one the bluetooth was essentially not there. I could toggle the switch, but no bluetooth would show up, and the actual bluetooth menu is empty. I've searched a bit and couldn't really find a definative statement on the issue. Is it just me? or did i miss some note stating the issue?
I'm on CM11 and have had no issues with Bluetooth.

I haven't issues too
Interesting. So I just tried to run Tablet Talk and it said Bluetooth isn't supported by this device.
No BT issues here.
I updated to m9 today and Bluetooth would not connect then would not turn on when I tried to cycle it I wiped cache and dalvik cache rebooted and it connected fine. Might try that if it's still not working for you.

Thanks for the reply. So i did a bit of experimenting. First I went back to stock. BT actually worked. Next reloaded CM11. Again BT was OK. The I restored my backup data. Suddenly BT was not OK. So I simply went back to a clean CM11 install and loaded my data bit by bit. I never actually figured out what was causing the issue - the issue being that something was telling the phone that it did not have bluetooth capabilities - but I imagine that it was so specific and unlikely that it isn't much of a concern.
That is interesting about the davlic cache. I did not try that.

My car, 07 Acura TL Type S has always synced via bluetooth for handsfree with my Fascinate until I loaded EB01, Anyone else having this issue? I put the phone in visible mode and the car should find it. It does not. When I scan with the phone for bluetooth connections, it finds the car but the car does not allow you to initiate bluetooth connections from the phone.
Mine had no issues with the car, I just had to re-type in the code to pair them. However my phone did ask to do so.

Welp
I used my wife's phone which is a HTC EVO and it connected to my car's bluetooth without a hitch. Soooo, I went reloaded the EB01 ROM and Radio and yes I wiped the data and cleared the cache. Tried to connect MY phone again and I had NO luck. Should I order yet another phone? This is my 2nd fascinate. The previous one connected to my car's bluetooth just fine using EB01 but the vibrate motor worked only when it wanted to. One thing I must note, the bluetooth on my new phone connected to my mac book pro just fine. I was able to transfer files from the mac to the phone via bluetooth.
Keith7120- did you restore the system settings using an application like titanium backup after flashing eb01? I had some problems with Bluetooth after doing that on DL30.

I'm having Bluetooth issues as well...my phone connects fine, but after hanging up a call something happens where it drops the connection and the only way to get it back is to turn off bluetooth on the phone and turn the stereo off, then turn bluetooth back on the phone and then turn the stereo back on. Even though the connection gets dumped the stereo is not recognizing it.
When streaming music or podcasts the behavior is that the phone is streaming, a call is placed (or comes in) which pauses the stream and then when the call has ended the stream should resume. In my case I get the dreaded "force close" vibrate series (vibrate, pause, then 2 vibrates) but I never get a force close message. The content that was streaming attempts to stream and then stops and the connection is gone at that point.
I'm very frustrated at this point as I have taken the time to reinstall everything from scratch, wiping the phone to factory, deleting dalvik cache, regular cache, wiping, etc. from recovery. It worked last night in testing and it worked initially this morning. And then a little later this morning it went back to not working.

Yes i did restore the system settings using Titanium coming from DL30. How do i skip that part during the restore?. I suppose i can figure that out within Titanium. Reset phone, wipe, then re-flash EB01 ROM and Radio. Restore but do not restore system settings. I will give it a shot. Thanks!
Bluetooth issue SOLVED!

Thanks for that idea, I reflashed my phone and I did NOT auto restore system settings using Titanium and Walla! I have working bluetooth in my car again. The steps I took were:
1. wiped phone/factory reset
2. re-flashed the EB01 modem
3 re-installed/flashed the EB01 ROM
4. once booted up, headed right for the car to pair bluetooth(worked!)
5. restored apps one by one through titanium.
6. went back to the car to see if the bluetooth worked (it did)
7. Issue SOLVED
what did you leave out when you retored all of you apps? did you leave out all system data?
i was having the same issue, tried above and seems like its all fixed up now, appreciate the help
I'm running sc2.7.1 (based on eb01/eb16) and my bt works fine except that it will not connect to my headset automatically. I have to go into settings...etc then click on the headset to get it to connect. It should poll for paired headsets and connect automatically if one is available but it doesn't. It stays connected until the headset it turned off with no problems though.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Not a deal-breaker, just a minor annoyance.

Hi there,
First time poster - So, "Hey guys!"
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (Hence the post in this sub-forum,) running on Cyanogenmod 9 (10/04) nightly.
For quite some time, i've had issues with loading videos from the youtube application on my mobile network. Wifi works perfectly fine.
Whenever I go to load a video, it always comes up with, "Connection to server lost, touch to retry."
I'm able to bypass this, by enabling HQ (On or off) and the video loads perfectly.
However, this is only a work around - The issue still remains. It's quite annoying, as It's worked once or twice in the past (This was when I was running stock, without root.)
I've tried everything I can think of. (Reflashing to stock (Rom and kernel,) rebooting, fixing permissions, clearing dalvik cache etc, etc, etc...)
I searched for this exact issue all night last night, and half the day today at work - All to no avail.
Does ANYBODY have the same issue and or know about fixing it?
Many thanks,
Josh
Uninstall ur youtube and install again from play store. Or try to remove google account and re-enter ur account.
I am having the same problems.
Does this not have something to do with the 4.0.4 data problem that has been reported?
Reinstalling youtube doesn't help me.

just refresh it a couple of times .. works for me
OK I messed about with different ROM versions and nothing happened even after a factory reset.
Also updating youtube didn't work.
However I have just installed the latest build 31 of Team Kang and installed an older gapps package from Feb 12 (instead of the Mar 12 package).
Youtube then updated itself automatically on reboot and now works fine off wifi.
It didn't have anything to do with 4.0.4. I stand corrected.

Hi people,
I am currently having this issue on my HTC Desire hence the searching of the entire XDA website for answers. Any help would be thankful.

I have a Galaxy S2 running CM9RC1 and I'm having exactly the same problem. I've tried GApps packages signed from March and April to no avail.
YouTube's mobile site works fine. The YouTube app works fine over WiFi. It fails to load any videos when I'm connected using 3G though and returns the error above.
I've tried a factory reset, cleared cache, uninstalled/reinstalled the YouTube app, tried enabling/disabling HD from within the YouTube app, tried a number of different APNs, selected/deselected the option to preload videos, ensured my flash player is up to date, reflashed CM9 and reinstalled GApps. I've been Googling a couple of hours now and I'm beginning to lose the will to live! :crying:
Everything worked fine prior to me rooting my phone and flashing CM9. I was originally running the official Vodafone UK ICS rom.
I'm beginning to lose faith that I'll be able to fix the problem so would appreciate any suggestions?
TIA,
Bob.
Edit: Well no sooner have I posted that I think I've managed to crack it. I navigated to Settings > Location Services > GPS Source, and noticed that the radio button to use the internal GPS wasn't depressed. I selected it, backed out and now things seem to be OK.

I'm having the same problem. My GPS Source was also unselected but selecting it hasn't made any change to the situation. I'm not sure how GPS can effect Youtube performance?
I've had the same issue with youtube on both my Epic Touch 4G (Galaxy S2) and Nexus 7 device.....but only at my house. Youtube works perfectly elsewhere. Can it be something with my home wifi network? The nexus 7 is wifi only and I have never been able to get youtube to work at my house but it works when connected to other wifi networks elsewhere. Also, my mother-in-law is visiting this week and her kindle fire will not play youtube while in our house, getting the same "Connection to server lost, touch to retry" error message.
All signs point to something being up with the wifi network but I don't know how to solve this issue.
Wound up being Comcast's throttled DNS. All good now.

Try looking at the apn you are on in your settings. Mine was on EPHRD. Moved it ti LTE and now you tube is working again.
I have the SGN2 WITH SPRINT.
disable "restrict background data" from data usage. or if you have any firewall apps disable it then try. hope it will work for you as like me.
sorry for my bad english
I rooted and have s-off but have an issue since. My bluetooth headset will no longer stay connected to the phone (constant connect/disconnect). I tried to do a fix permissions via recovery as well as wipe cache/dalvik cache which didnt help and caused all of my contact pictures (in the messaging app too) to no longer show. Any suggestions as to get my bluetooth working again?
This has been hit or miss as I have flashed about 5 different roms and sometimes the bluetooth is more sensitive. I just flashed the newest radio update and was hoping that would fix that problem.

I flashed the new radios yesterday and it doesn't appear to correct the problem. This is frustrating as I just bought the EVO LTE (coming from OG EVO) along with a brand new earpiece and can't use the earpiece. I haven't flashed any ROMs yet, still running stock.
I'm running the 8/31 build of cmx and my Bluetooth audio disconnects occasionally and sometimes requires a reboot to connect. Also my phone calls rarely go to my Bluetooth.

Running Jamie's cm10.1.
My phone can see satellites, sometimes more than 10, but will never connect. I've tried the A-GPS data fixes with no result. What do I need to do, would returning to stock and then flashing cm fix it?
I've tried other modems, just for the hell of it. I've flashed lots of roms, a couple of them had locking GPS, most didn't.
It's killing me, lol.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your reply. I've already done all of that prior to posting, but I appreciate your taking the time to try and help.
Whenever I now try and switch bluetooth on it instantly snaps the button back to the off position, I have tried turning it on in loads of different ways and it just won't come back on...
It was working fine till yesterday, I installed Swapp Link app and let it manage the BT connection and now it won't switch on... I have remove / reinstalled the app and restarted phone etc, nothing has fixed it.. any ideas? ;(

Do you have any app like Liama or similar?
Maybe that app has rule to switch your BT?
If you don't have it, try to restart TS and wipe both cache from recovery (if you have it)

Bluetooth also suddenly stopped working for me. And it is not possible to turn it on. To make things more interesting - I didn't install anything on my omate since I upgraded to TEST_RELEASE_Omate_2100_TrueSmart_20140314.zip on the day when my omate 8GB/1GB 2100 arrived more than a month ago. It worked fine all this time, and without any visible cause it just stopped today.
I wanted to tether to ipad to provide internet connection, while riding in a bus, and suddenly snap - bluetooth turned itself off. I tried restarting omate. I couldn't figure anything to get it back to work.
it happened exactly 6 hours ago. About the time when you made your post.

how to do a hard reset of omate, without voiding the warranty? Do I need to wait until battery runs out?
No, just turn off quickboot and power the watch down. When you turn it back on Bluetooth will probably reinitialize and work again. For a while.

Quickboot didn't knock it out. The defective TrueSmart MTK firmware and hardware combination cause all sorts of problems with using Bluetooth, including some that require a full power cycle reset. That is not possible with Quickboot enabled unless the battery runs down or is removed.

Glad to see your BT and TS are working fine now...
All el devices could be "fixed" by restarting it.
They are all using RAM and/or dalvik cache and that has to cleared sometimes...
Dalvik cache is a "place" where Android decompile apk files for quicker access, so when you wip dalvik cache from recovery you are clearing everything so system has to decompile apk files again and RAM is cleared also...
It's like fresh start and it "fix" many software issues that way...
If you have ADB tools and rooted device, you can use adb reboot from adb shell, no need to open your watch, lose warranty and pull battery out...
