Hello, Question for anyone that can help, this is kind of minor but it bugs the crap out of me..... I have a few issues using my G3 via bluetooth with my car stereo...
FISRT, I pair the phone to the stereo, everything is ok, until I leave truck and turn off bluetooth, the only way it will pair again by itself is if I first turn on bluetooth on my phone then turn on the radio, if I do it the other way around, radio first, then turn on bluetooth on phone, it will not pair, I need to shut off the radio, turn it back on, then it will pair, I dont think this is a problem with the radio because it never did this with any other phone I had and I tested it with another bluetooth device and it works fine, it only does it with the G3.
SECOND, when I am playing music to the radio using I-heart radio, it will not send any song data to the radio, it works fine with other music players, only other ones I use are google play music and u-sound to play music from, they work fine, shows song data on radio screen, etc, but if i play something from I-heart radio, it will not show the song data, again, I dont think this is a radio issue as all my other phones worked fine and I tested it with my nexus tablet, from the tablet, it shows song data, from the G3, nothing.
Has anyone else had any bluetooth issues like this with this device?...

That sounds really bad. I have CM11 nightly on my G3 now. The only bluetooth complaint I have is about sound drop offs - when there are multi-second silent breaks in music/podcasts, the data is just lost. But pairing/connecting is all good here.

I had posted about this a couple of months ago but decided to put it on a back burner and work on some other things.
Here is my problem. I am connecting to the wifi at work and also have a Creative D100 A2DP speaker that I use for listening to music. I use Pandora and also an app called Gizmo which allows me to stream music from my home computer. I can connect to the speaker and it will play for a while and then drop the bluetooth connection to the speaker. Sometimes it plays one song sometimes many then just disconnects. I can go into settings and reconnect and it will do the same thing.
I have tried this with TNT Lite, Vegan, TTx, and now Calkulins rom. They all do the same thing.
Anyone have any idea how I can keep the bluetooth connection alive? The speaker is A2DP only. It will not autoconnect like a BT headset will, I have to manually connect it. I can do the same with my Iphone and the connection will stay on all day.
Thanks for any tips anyone may have.
Not too sure if this is relevant, but I have been having a similar problem with my Bluetooth but with a different device. I connect up to a BT keyboard (apple), but I get disconnected after a minute or two. Looks like we might have a problem with our BT.
I finally exchanged mine thinking it might be a hardware problem but the new one does the same thing. It annoying as hell!
ok, this has been plaguing me and preventing me from switching permanently to 2.2 since the camera has been fixed.
the problem:
you pair your bluetooth device and connect. media works fine. then disconnect and turn off bluetooth and the bt device. turn everything back on, and media won't play through the bluetooth device.
the cause:
well, i have been using the same jabra sp700 for a few years now. worked great on all my devices (iphone 2g, iphone 3g, dream, various nokias and my x10 up to 2.1). well, apparently 2.2+ android requires a bluetooth device that supports avrcp or the avrcp handling of 2.2+ roms require avrcp to work on the bluetooth device. however, my sp700 (and i would imagine other older bt devices) either do not have this or it doesn't work as android wants it to.
the solution (tested multiple times, works sometimes, not others):
pair and connect, go into settings and disable "phone audio" for the bluetooth device.
kind of sucks since this is my car speaker phone, but i use it for media more than i use it for phone. but i have connected/disconnected several times and media is still playing through the bt and not the phone speaker.
so those who have bt media problems with 2.2+ roms, try this, it may work for you.
will this fix the problem? http://www.foogod.com/android/ ?
it is the same with MW600 headset on Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 0.54 ROM.
what happens for me:
both devices were paired in the past and remember each other. I turn on BT on the phone and power on the headset. press play in the music player - nothing plays, it hangs and come back to paused state.
when I press play for second time music comes from headphone speaker.
what helps:
stop the playback at this point. turn the headset off and on again. press play and the music should play through it. with both music headset and phone audio profiles active.
this is how I have to do it every single time. headset works normaly afterwards until you turn the BT off on the phone again. it's just a little inconvenience.
what troubles me more are the short gaps in the playback you get about every minute and when you turn the screen off.

does not work
what about the method I wrote about? I think it is the same problem.
power off/on your headset again when the music starts playing from the headphone speaker used normally for calls. every single time this happens it fixes this for me.

that was working on and off for me. sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.
i made some modifications to the bluetooth audio.conf, will test those on my way home tonight.
no problems here with my bluetooth and i'm using wolfbreaks' 2.2 rom. i'm using a sony dr-bt50 headphones.
I've been having this problem with my headset too (hbh is800) and I'll try once I get back from home. Hopefully it works. I've tried the foogod link before and it never helped. I've been experiencing the bluetooth problem with my watch too (mbw 150) it connects and later it disconnects. and the cycle keeps repeating.
I have the same problem with dante-fu. I use Wolfbreak's CM 6.1.3 v0.54 ROM and MW600 headset. But turn on/off headset doesn`t help me sometimes and I have to re-pair devices.
I'm too having some problems with my mw600 head set.
Sometimes it does not play through the Bluetooth headset but through the speaker of the phone (it happens rarely)
But the most annoying thing is after a call, my headset just freezes & nothing works expect for the power button. Only solution is to turn the device of & turning on it again.
Using Wolf's 2.2 CM ROM
well, this sucks, i've tried changing all the media configs and nothing.
only solution i can think of is porting the bluetooth stack from 2.1 to 2.2.
back to 2.1 since my bt speaker is the only option for music in my car since my kid decided to deposit $.42 into my cd player.
Blutooth Media streaming problem
Hello,
Has anyone had any luck resolving this issue?
It's starting to drive me crazy. Bluetooth phone calls work perfectly but media streaming works intermittently.
Is there an easy way to replace downgrade the blutooth stack?
I am running CM 6.13
I've had my Touchpad for all of four days now. I know their are not a lot apps, but was happy with the basics (browser, e-mail, calender, music player, photo viewer and Skype), but was also looking forward to using TuneIn Radio and Pandora.
I've had two issues with TuneIn Radio.
First, I have an portable Bluetooth speaker (Monster ClarityHD) that I use with my Android tablet. It works well with the Touchpad, except it won't work with Tunein Radio (works with everything else including Pandora). As soon as it connects I can't hear any audio and as soon as I unconnect it the TP starts playing the audio again.
Secondly, Intune radio seem to every so often stop playing and buffer the audio. Some times for for a short time sometimes for a longer time. I tried it with Pandora today and didn't have any issues. Maybe it was just a slow connection that day, not sure. Is this normal with this app?
PS... was streaming Tunein radio just now and it did it again, this time a very short pause before it started playing again. But I've had it happen for so long I just closed the app after 20+ seconds.

The second one is definitely a common bug with Tunein, just go back or go to another station and go back to the original station and it will work. Not sure about the first (bluetooth bug) I will test my bluetooth headset with it now.
Haha.... you must of posted just as I was typing.
Well, it a shame Tunein radio has this issue. Let me know how your bluetooth headset does. It just so odd that Tuneon is the only app that doesn't produce audio over Bluetooth.
Thanks!

BTW what Bluetooth headset do you have.
I used to have the Motorola S9 but the touch buttons stopped working from the sweat so I got the S9HD's that where suppose to have better moisture resistance, but they stopped working too.

Tunein definitely doesn't work with Bluetooth. In fact sound completely stopped coming out of the speakers when I connected my bluetooth.

OMG, it used to be bad, but for some reason TuneIn just constantly buffers for me now. I have it on Android too but it seems fine there, so I'm not sure what's up with the WebOS version.

Yeah, it works great on my Android tablet. I guess WebOS is the red headed step child of the OS world.
My car is connected via bluetooth to my G2x and MT4G and tunein has not issues with it. It plays great through bluetooth.
I just can't control it using the bluetooth controls.
So it must be some other problem for you.

This is specifically a TouchPad (WebOS) issue. TuneIn Radio works perfectly on my android devices.
just regular streaming my TP works fine in tunein and pandora webos and android.
now BT i don't have so :/
i just downloaded the app myself. I am running it on my touchpad with cm7 and it keeps on buffering and then says unable to start audio. I have never tried it with the webos. Is there a fix or any work around by any means?
So I know this is an old thread. But I too have a similar problem. I have a nokia 360 wireless bluetooth speaker. My touchpad has both cm9 and webos in a dual boot configuration. Tunein radio works great on android the bluetooth pairs and I can hear the audio through the wireless speaker. On webos however tunein radio will work fine for audio through the touchpad, but once it pairs to the wireless bluetooth speaker no audio works. The tunein app hasent been updated in a long time. In fact it still has the old icon logo in webos, the blue one with the robot. has anybody found a fix. Or is anybody else experiencing this problem. I prefer to watch and listen to stuff on webos because for some reason when when watching video while running in android and paired to the bluetooth speaker there is a quarter second delay on the audio and it makes it look like a bad chinese dub soundover, where the lips are moving but the audio isn't synced correctly but when watching the same video on webos it works perfectly.

I can confirm the it seems to be a TuniIn problem. External audio works perfectly with all other audio apps in webOS and all apps including TuneIn in CM9 on my TouchPad.
BTW: It doesn't seem to be a bluetooth problem. Even with headphones or external speakers connected to the 3.5mm plug, I have the described problems with TuneIn.
So I have a Ford Edge with a bluetooth receiver where I can play music, as well as some headphones, and I'm having intermittent issues when using this type of playback. The issue doesn't occur with my partner's Note 5, does anybody have any issues with stereo bluetooth? I'm close to writing to LG about it so they can log with (possibly) other reports for the same issue.

Just today i had issues with mine, i have one the parrot devices on my car and it picks up my iphone right away but i tried for about 2 minutes to play music from my v10 and it wouldn't connect to it, someones it connect right away its very off and on. I didn't try to unpair it and re-pair it though.
Am I reading that right, are both BT devices trying to connect at the same time? If so I had sorta the same problem in my Audi. I sometimes had to toggle Bluetooth on and off to get it to reconnect. But what I did was go into the Bluetooth settings for each device and specifically select the profile I want to use for that device. So for Audi MMI, which handles the phone calls, I selected the profile "Call Audio" only. Then for my headphones I selected the "Media Audio" profile only. I just figured that if two BT devices are fighting for the same profile only one is going to win it. And it seemed like it was a toss up which one got the call or media profile first.

No, you are not . However, allow me to clarify that the devices I mentioned are having issues on their own when using the V10. One incident is with my car's stereo, if I'm lucky, the audio will hold or it will decide to be a douche and start getting choppy with 1 second gaps.
Also, I'm noticing with the WiFi that my signal is horrible, but my partner's Note5 is perfect and super quick. I really really like this phone, but these issues are a bit annoying.
I have problems with my car stereo too. When I get in the car, it will connect automatically and start playing like normal but only for a minute or two. Then bluetooth will disconnect. So, I turn bluetooth off and on and, it will stay connected after that.
I also have a bose bluetooth speaker which doesnt have any problems.
I just found this thread after posting to the rom thread I am using...
I am having a minor annoyance with Bluetooth and media streaming.
When the phone auto pairs to my cars stereo head unit (Kenwood KDC-BT762HD), system sounds/calls etc come through the car fine, but not Media like music, videos etc.
Phones says it is paired to Media and the head unit does show the song info and I can control the app via hardware buttons on the unit, the phone acts as if it is playing, but no sound is heard. I have to turn bluetooth off then on or re-pair and then it works fine. I thought it was just the music app I use, but its any apps that play media like music or videos, including Pandora and Youtube.
I have 4 varying bluetooth headphones and they auto- reconnect to the phone just fine with no issues.
Anyone else having a an issue like this with any of their car stereos? My G3 never did this.

Also, I have a gmc canyon 2015. I have the same issue. I stopped using my car's bluetooth , I now only use aux cable. Amazing in 2016 and I still have to use aux cable. I am looking to moving to one plus 3 because of this issue. marshmallow also brought gps bugs on top of the bluetooth one.

I don't think its a MM issue or a vehicle specific issue (and i have an aftermarket stereo head unit) I have not had this issue with any of my other MM (or LP)devices I have tried with the radio. I have a spare LG G3 and a Moto X Pure that is running MM that is running MM and many of the mods and same apps I use on my G3 and now V10, again, no BT issues.
I am not having any disconnect or not pairing issues at all....just the odd thing that the media sounds don't work unless i disconnect/then connect the phone to the head unit when I get back into the car and power up and it auto pairs.
My folks have a much more serious issue with their 2015 Ford Escape and Ford Sync and their Samsung S4's they both have. Phone pairs and works fine once, but then the mic acts like its muted, no one can hear u, even if u un-pair the phone from the car, the phone itslef no longer outputs sound at all. You have to reboot the phone in order to get it to work again. It did it when the phones were on Android L and still after the MM update. Web search finds many folks with same issues in regards to that issue. (which is not the issue i am having at all, infact, their phones work fine on my car).
I found a work around for my issue. Since i simply just needed to disconnect and reconnect the BT to my car's head unit, found a widget that does just that. A2DP Connect2. Car auto pairs, i tap widget once, disconnects, wait a few sec, tap again, connects, my media streaming now works fine.
Still a annoyance, but much better than having to navigate menus and such.
BT issues fixed with update to 20j.
I can confirm that the annoying Bluetooth media stream issue in 20e, where you had to re-connect the phone or no media stream....is fixed in 20j. Auto connect works perfectly every time now on my Kenwood head unit.
Hi, I've been connecting my mate 10 .128 to the car, audio works fine, calls are working fine, only issue i have is that I'm unable to control the tracks from the car. I have to manually do it in the phone. Is this a software issue? Can anyone help?
I have the same issue with a pair of Sony on ear headphones with controls built in. Volume works but nothing else does.
Same here. I have 2 cars, one of them is a Sony deck and I'm able to control the tracks and display the track information just fine. My other car has a Kenwood deck, it doesn't display the track information and I'm not able to control the tracks with the stereo. Also, both decks have bad Bluetooth audio quality compared to other phones I've used in the past. Huawei really needs to address the Bluetooth issues. If I knew how bad it was, I might second guess my purchase.
Same problem here, it happens in my personal car and with my plantronics Bluetooth headset, in my job car music is not even streaming... I've contacted huawei support and they told me to factory reset my phone, I've not tried it yet

Done, it bugged and didn't turned on Bluetooth at first, then it started and music started playing on my job's car, then suddenly stopped playing from car speakers but from the phone ones but still controllable from car's touchscreen... Set Bluetooth off/on again and now it seems to work nicely but for how long? It's pretty buggy in my opinion!

I agree, it's the worst part of this phone. Don't be surprised if you have to clear cache and data everytime you need to connect Bluetooth.
i had exact the same problems with two different car audio systems.
solution:
i deleted all BT devices on my car navigation AND on my phone. i also cleared the cache of the bluetooth system app. after that i paired my mate 10 pro with my car again. that's it...no problems anymore (since 3 weeks).
users with other phone brands reported the same problems and similar solutions. so i think it's a generic oreo-problem.
