My phone will not detect my Samsung WEP301 headset. I've tried resetting, turning on/off etc. The headset pairs fine with my HTC G2 and my THL phone manages to detect other bluetooth devices nearby. Any ideas?

I had issue with bluetooth on my THL v9, but with another bluetooth profile. And that seems to be hardware problem.
The headset is detected and pairs fine with my friend's iPhone and my HTC G2. I'm trying to get my hands on another bluetooth headset to try with my phone. Maybe it's just incompatible for some reason. The headset is an older model.
unrelated question, does your v9 get hot when watching videos or playing games over extended period of time?
Has anyone had any success with android auto and the V10? I have not been able to connect to my NEX4100 via android auto AND bluetooth....
I think there are general bluetooth issues. I have a 2014 Cadillac with CUE Bluetooth and the V10 connects fine but no media can play. Calls work fine. I've tried many of the tricks that helped with the LG G4 (turning media audio off in settings after connecting then turning it back on) to no avail.
Between this and the force restarts, I may return this phone and go with the Nexus 6P. Also annoyed that verizon is selling the Qi chargin back as an accessory...
I had the same issue with my 2014 Jetta and the V10, took me 30 minutes of restarting bluetooth, turning the phone off and on, turning the car off and on and finally I switched my car to FM and the bluetooth connected to also support media audio. After that it worked ok. No idea what's up with the bluetooth but for my wireless headset it paired without issue. Seems picky

Same strange issues here.
Paired no problem to a 2015 Honda Accord. Unable to pair to a 2011 BMW X3 (however the HTC One M8, M9, Samsung Galaxy Avant and Light all pair no problem). And it paired no problem to a 2016 BMW X3.
And at the gym, it disconnected from the bluetooth headset while I was using it. Wouldn't reconnect until I powered the headset off and back on.
I've got the nex4100 as well and I have had no issues at all. Everything works as it should.

I don't know. Others in the thread seem to be confirming the issue your having but I seem to be the only one with the exact same head unit. Do you have the update for the head unit? My S5 had issues before the update. Update is kind of old but it did help with my S5. And Android Auto is working fine.

I am up to date on the 4100. So i swapped it out today and now it works with Android Auto, however it still does not work with bluetooth which is super odd.. to my understanding when you plug the phone in to connect to AA it still transmits the audio over bluetooth. Pioneer said it could be something wrong with the media bluetooth profile or something. Anyways i guess im stuck until they fix it. Maybe when android M comes out.
I don't know about Android Auto, but I definitely think the V10 has Bluetooth issues. I traded my Galaxy S6 Edge+ in for a V10 a week ago. I notice the Bluetooth audio is consistently "skipping" on both my car's audio and my Bluetooth headphones. Both devices worked flawlessly on my S6. Sometimes my car will even completely disconnect from the phone and I have to go through a complete reset/re-add process to get it back.
Hoping a 6.0 update will come soon and fix this issue.

Just an update as I just ran new cable in the car for the new phone. Everything tested out fine for me. The car is an 02 Camaro that I don't drive often now that it's cold outside but after hearing your problems I wanted to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. I don't think bluetooth audio while on Android Auto worked at all but Google play works just fine. Bluetooth audio was flawless when not connected to Android Auto. Tested it on and off Wi-Fi. Good to hear your better after the swap.

I'm having problems connecting to my 2015 GMC Sierra (GMC Intellilink). I can connect, connect automatically, make and receive phone calls, but the bluetooth audio for music DOES NOT WORK. Most of the time, when I try to play a song via google play music or Deezer, the head unit in my truck immediately goes BLACK for about 10 seconds, I hear a whirrr of an internal fan, and it starts back up disconnected from the phone. The phone is causing the head unit to fail & restart. Sometimes it doesn't restart. It'll show the progress bar of the music, as well as on my phone. I can pause, play, next song, etc. but NO AUDIO comes out. It's just dead silent.
I'll let you guys know what my dealership says, as it's in service right now for this issue. I'm hoping there's an update for the software :/
When I bluetooth over to my $300 Sony x-7s speaker, every 10 seconds or so I get a loud static pop. Luckily I kept my note3 so I just use that until an update (hopefully) will fix the issue, so I can listen to my Howard Stern on the v10. I am surprised they didn't push an update on or near release date. Maybe they are going straight to Marshmallow.
So i have an update after having a week or so to play around with it. Although I cannot connect to my NEX 4100 via bluetooth I can use google play music via android auto. Also i cannot use spotify on AA UNLESS i hit play on google play music first then pause then try to play a song on spotify...... very strange.
I'm glad it's not just me... Same weird bluetooth issues here with my Mercedes E63 AMG and the COMMAND unit. It was working flawlessly with my last phone (Xperia Z3.) The V10 is nothing but a headache so far. The following problems are happening:
Won't connect at all, and hangs.
Connects for calls only, no media.
Connects, instantly disconnects, cycle repeats.
To fix it I either have to keep manually connecting from COMMAND, until it randomly works. Or disconnect from the phone, and reconnect again. Or turn bluetooth off and on. On the note of which, half the time I do that, it hangs. Love the phone, but I'm going to return it if this goes on.
Further note: I even took the car in to the dealer, and paid 150 bucks to get the latest firmware updates done on it. That didn't fix it either. Tried my Xperia again, still works flawlessly. Ugh.
I had an interesting issue with bluetooth.
I paired it to my 2015 Jeep Overland.
Music from SD Card played fine.
Then tried pandora. Nothing worked. Disabled bluetooth and pandora was fine. Went back to local mp3s from SD card and they would not play now.
Had to un-pair and pair it again. Then mp3s worked.
Played pandora and nothing and that broke mp3s again.
Then I tried my g4 on Sprint. Pandora worked fine.
Also tried Tune in Radio and that worked on v10 over bluetooth.
I think it is caused by Binge On from t- mobile downsampling the stream on pandora and the Uconnect radio does not like the bitrate or format.
I did read t-mobile will downsample streamed movies.
So folks with bluetooth issues, what are you testing with?
I have a less standard setup. I connect to my 2012 Cadillac system as a phone only, and I have an aptx bt dongle attached to the aux port that I'm connected to as a media device.
My phone connects to both simultaneously, and hands the phone back and forth for calls and music. It works flawlessly, and the audio quality way better than any OEM bt streaming that I've ever heard.
I have a Pioneer DEH 80PRS in my truck and it has connected and works perfect just like my G3 did. It always auto connects when entering the vehicle and hands off between streaming Tune in radio or from the SD card using the Android music player app and a phone call no problem. Hopefully the guys having problems will get a fix when the phone is given some MM goodness.
Same issues with Bluetooth and my 4100nex. Calls work, Android auto works, Bluetooth music does not. I'm in my 14 day window. This may be a deal breaker for me. Kinda regret ditching my note 4 for this.
Yall think it will get fixed with an update, or are we permanently screwed?

I am having the same problem with my LG V10. It won't stay connected to my Lexus 2015. The only thing I found that would work is if I keep the phone unlocked.
looks to be an issue with LG

Same issue between LG V10 T-Mobile and my Bluetooth audio on my 2014 Kia Optima SX. I also have similar connectivity issues between the phone and the Microsoft Band. Similar reports on the Microsoft boards of same Bluetooth issues with the Band and V10. Sounds like a problem on the LG side to me.
Hello, i am working on project to convert Lenovo Phab Plus as car headunit, with all accessory, like backup cam, HD audio via high end dac, HID commands, and so on.
LG QPair would be very nice solution for connecting phone to tablet, but i was unable to use QPair, even then changed build.prop, so it will recognize my tabled as LG tablet.
It allowed me to connect phone, but after pair, it just crashed. Any idea how to fix that ?
Is it just me or is there a problem with LG G5 (H860) connecting to Chromecast?
I can't get to connect to my 2 chromecast devices on my TV using my new LG G5 (H860) cellphone. Also tried Localcast and YouTube. It still won't connect.
My other devices work alright (Samsung Tab A) connecting to the chromecast device. I've also tried a different chromecast unit and it still won't connect
See screenshots for reference.
Well.. I have a fully working screen casting.
One with the older model Chromecast and one with the new model.
Just used one of them today and earlier this week the other..
Tried to reboot your device and chromecast?
Edit.
I have a H850 model

I have the LG G5 LS992 (Sprint-US variant) and CHromecast works just fine. I tried Youtube, Netflix and Spotify with no problem.
You are not alone in this problem. I too have the LG G5 and have begun noticing connection issues with this specific handset.
I can usually get it to connect without issue and begin the streaming process, then somewhere along the line, the phone disconnects on it's end of things while the media continues playing on my home theater or my TV and I then have zero control over what's playing.
I'll also see intermittent flashes of the cast button on my phone's screen and when I go to connect, it asks for the CC's pin. Problem is, once something's streaming, you can't see the pin, so I have to unplug any and all power to the CC to get it back to working order. I have one in my living room and one in my bedroom and both will disconnect at various times from the phone, but not the wifi network. I know it's the phone because my old HTC One M8 will remain connected, without issue. Our tablets and PCs remain connected as well.
It's only this phone that I'm having trouble with. Even the Google Cast app doesn't find the CCs in the house, just that it knows I have backdrop settings for both.
It's become a major annoyance since we stream most of our entertainment now. I don't know why it's doing it, but I'm hoping someone has an idea. I do, but it may be nothing of value....
In Marshmallow, there's supposedly a setting to allow the wifi to sorta "sleep" to save on battery power until you touch the screen. I'm wondering if the wifi goes to sleep and disconnects from the Chromecast, causing this issue? If that's the case, is there a way to disable that so it doesn't do it? I have to charge the battery or swap it out on a regular basis anyway, so I can't imagine I'm saving much by leaving such a feature activated.
Was trying to figure out why I dont have the option to bluetooth tether to my car radio. Is this a Tmobile version of the phone thing?
Is there a way around it? Is it because its tmobile locked? or? any help would be appreciated, hopefully I am not f'd and have to deal with it
There is no problem tethering bluetooth with a PC...must be your radio capability.
Well I just don't even have the option on my phone. Settings > Network and Internet > Tethering.
Only 3 options I have is mobile hotspot and usb tethering and Help.
I go through the same menus on a friends g8x and they have Bluetooth tether option.
Wondering why I Dont?
I have the T-Mobile variant and confirm that bluetooth tethering is not available. It looks like TMobile removed it from most of their LG products. The LG G8X from my understanding is not officially carried by TMobile.
Good news though, you might have some luck with 3rd party apps like PDAnet or some other apps on play store for bluetooth tethering. I'll see if I can test it for you.
So the V60 won't connect to a vehicle? I haven't tried it, but I'm surprised I haven't heard more people complaining about that

I had absolutely no issue connecting mine to my car's infotainment system just pairing through the bluetooth settings. I normally use Android Auto, though, as my car's infotainment system has a well known delay through bluetooth (gen 3 Mazda3). Bluetooth tethering, though, should be for sharing the phone's internet connection. I also only see USB or wifi for tethering on my phone.
