[Q] Problem with turning on bluetooth - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have strange problem with bluetooth. I can turn it on only if wi-fi is turned on too. When I turn off wi-fi, my phone is showing turning on bluetooth for some time but without succes. When I have wi-fi turned on bluetooth is working normally, I can connect to other devices and for example send them files, so I think it's not hardware problem. I was using NeatROM, then I tried rom based on 5.1 android, and I tried on stock 4.1.2 rom - on every rom with the same result.
I have this phone for almost five years, problem occured few weeks ago.

[Q] Bluetooth connection issue

Hello guys...
It's been a couple of days now that my phone keeps disconnecting from my Bluetooth headset. This behaviour is completely erratic. It won't happen in every call. When the issue started I hadn't changed anything in the phone. Had installed nothing. The problem is irrelevant with the headset (used a different one and had the same issue). Since then I tried a different rom but to no avail. I returned to my previous rom. I attach a pic of my current phone setup. Any suggestions would be most welcome.

[Q] Cubot One Bluetooth Connection Issues

I have a Cubot One, using the G800_CUBOT_D1_V0.8_20140124_MJK firmware (4.2.1) - it was previously on the 0.6 firmware and had the same issue.
What I have experienced is that when connecting to a device with Bluetooth - in this case a Sony SW2, but have also tried Bluetooth headsets - it has problems pairing.
The phone sees the BT device as an available device, and when I select it, it starts the pairing process. Initially it seems to be ok and successfully pairs for 2-5 seconds, the the device is relisted as an available device, but not connected. I have had success twice. The first time was immediately after rooted my phone, and this was ok for several days, even rebooting my phone and the watch didn't seem to cause the issue again, but then it randomly stopped working. I was unable to connect until flashing with the 0.8 ROM. At this point is was again working for about 24 hours - even better than before - until I switched the watch off. Since then I have been unsuccessful in pairing again.
Interestingly, when I try to pair with my Galaxy Tab 2 I have the same problem, UNLESS I initiate the connection with the tablet, then it is fine.
I know that there were problems with the Bluetooth stack on 4.2.1 when it first came out, and it may be related to that, but can anyone offer suggestions as to what else I can try?

[Q] Wifi not usable, ideas?

Hi,
This morning I randomly decided to update my firmware (as per Sony's incessant reminders). I updated to 17.1.1.A.0.402, as it was what Sony's updating app was telling me the latest firmware was. I updated as instructed on my tablet, wirelessly. The update was successful and totally uneventful -- no incidents whatsoever.
However, immediately after my update, my wifi dropped, and after that, I couldn't reconnect to *any* wifi network whatsoever. I toggled on/off, and the wifi would reconnect for a matter of seconds, maximum 2-3 minutes before dropping and never reconnecting again. To reconnect to wifi, I'd have to toggle off/on again and then would have seconds to try and load a page (but would never succeed)
So, I updated the firmware again, this time using the update application for the Mac since my tablet could no longer connect to wifi.
I successfully updated to 17.1.2.A.0.314.
Still the same wifi dropping and not coming back issues.
Then I tried "repairing" my software from the Mac, which I'm lead to believe erases everything and flashes with the most recent firmware.
Still had the same wifi issues.
Then I tried an erase/factory reset directly from the tablet.
I still have the same wifi issues, but they don't kick in within seconds anymore. Now after several minutes, the wifi will drop and not come back.
Any suggestions for a fix? I'm as of yet unrooted, and would like to remain that way if possible...
Thanks!
I would suggest a factory reset after flashing the update. Might solve your problem.
Before that you could try to delete your Wi-Fi and set it up again...

Thanks for your help
"Repairing" from this Mac app is flashing the update, correct? It erased and then flashed anyway. Had to set up the tablet like it was new. Is that not a factory reset?
In any case, I did a factory reset immediately afterwards, from the settings screen of the tablet, as mentioned above.
By "delete your wifi" do you mean "forget" the networks I'm trying to connect to? If so, I've done that many times, and have had to re set up my wifi networks anyway upon each factory reset/flash/erase.
So I think I tried what you suggested, and no dice, unless I've misunderstood?
Perhaps worth noting: I'm using the accompanying Sony Bluetooth keyboard.
Wifi seems to stick around a bit longer when Bluetooth is toggled off (no keyboard), though I could use the Sony keyboard before the update, no problem at all.
Yes that was what I ment.
Sorry it didn't help solving your problem.
Seems like you should call Sony.
It's the Bluetooth. Wifi and Bluetooth are on the same chip and won't work at the same time. It's a hardware fault with pretty much every Android system I've used. Turn off the Bluetooth and your wifi will be fine.
Thanks for your reply – though it was possible to use the bluetooth keyboard at the same time as wifi before the update.
Bluetooth keyboards would be pretty pointless if you couldn't use wifi at the same time as you use the keyboard, wouldn't they?
Between the Sony Xperia Z2 tablet, a Samsung Galaxy Tab S, and an iPad, I've used all with bluetooth keyboards + wifi without issues (until this firmware update on the Z2).
Use 5GHz Wifi, then the problem will be solved.
Sounds like you have been lucky so far and due to the small amount of data a bluetooth keyboard transmits. Bluetooth headphones are always transmitting as is wifi when watching hd youtube videos. They will always interfere with each other, but only every minute or so. Google the problem and you'll see its pretty universal.

Hi, here's my experience with my Z2 tablet, unrooted. I too have had wifi problems: after using the tablet fine for a while, with a strong signal, the tablet drops out, then wifi access stalls whilst "Obtaining IP address". I sometimes use a Bluetooth Microsoft keyboard, but have had the wifi drop out when I have Bluetooth off.
The only reliable (so far) solution I have found is to move to a static IP address. Not ideal, and perhaps not much help when travelling, but an OK workaround for a home or other wifi network where you have admin access to the router.
Hope that helps. Apologies if my newbie post is naive.

Lg v60 Problem with wifi

When I click my wifi icon it lights up like it's trying to turn on, but turns off after a few seconds without connecting. I can temporarily fix the problem by restarting my phone. It will turn on and connect after restarting. But if I turn the wifi off and back on again, it has the same problem. I really don't want to have to restart my phone every time I want to use the wifi, so if anybody has any idea how to fix this, that would be awesome.
Never had that issue, I'm currently on latest fw v10m and no issues at all, connected to Wi-Fi ax router.
Is this a mesh type access point. Been having issues with google wifi. It stops connecting to the same ap after a while but it will connect to the other ap's . Once I reboot I'm back to normal. There is another thread with this info. Unfortunately no fix yet, looks like a bug. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next update.
