Is anyone else having issues with Bluetooth and/or Android Wear? I got my P9000 a few days ago and the Sony Smartwatch 3 is frequently disconnecting. The Android Wear app just says trying to connect. The only way I can reestablish the connection is to reboot the phone. Neither turning Bluetooth off and back on not rebooting the watch help. The watch was rock solid with my Oneplus Two.
I have my P9000 connected to a Huawei watch... usually works great but in the area where Android wear lacks - reconnecting - the P9000 is even worse than my Nexus 5. After going out of range it often struggles to reinitiate connection.

Thanks. Unfortunately my issue isn't limited to going out of range, although that's usually the worst. Last night the phone and watch disconnected, whilst sat on my lapin the cinema, and refused to reconnect until the phone was rebooted.
Yes I've had the same problem. Also can't connect to my Bluetooth OBD reader in my car, it sees it, but refuses to connect

Having a problem too, connecting to Android car stereo. Connects okay but only for a split second then disconnects and then repeats about every 20 seconds.

Moto 360 (1st Gen) here, working fine with no issues.
Strange I have no issues connecting to any bluetooth devices (I mainly Moto 360, Jaybird headphones and Ford Car stereo)

If you go out of range, does it reconnect? Mine is fine as long as I don't get disconnected, but if I do, then a reboot of the phone is the only way

Yep, reconnects fine - mine disconnects every time I leave my room to go to the kitchen because of thick walls in my flat then reconnects just fine once I'm back in my room.
Right, a removal and reinstall of the Android Wear app has stopped the random disconnects. However, if I go out of range it doesn't reconnect. If I terminate the Android Wear app and restart it, however, the connection reestablished. Bluetooth to other devices is fine. It remains connected to my car streaming Spotify for hours without problem.
It seems I spoke too soon. The phone disconnected today despite being within 2' of my watch and terminating and restarting the Android Wear app didn't help. The only way to reestablish connection was to reboot the phone.
Mine lost connection today because I left the phone at home, when I got back it refuses to reconnect, even after a reboot.
I've force closed the app and nothing.
My Sony Z5 has been repaired, so I'm using that again now, but I still really like the P9000, so I'll keep an eye on development

Hello; I've noticed something odd with my Note. I have a profile on Tasker to start Pandora when I'm plugged in and BT connected to my car headset/speaker. On my Evo 4G, it would be less than 2 seconds from hitting the Bluetooth switch to the profile activating. On the Note, it has taken upward of 20 seconds from Bluetooth "on" to actually pairing with the speaker and the profile activating. On a few occasions, all I get is the notification that there are open Bluetooth devices and have to manually select my device (Motorola Roadster, if it matters).
I've tried renaming the device, to make sure it wasn't "confused" with the Evo or something but no luck. It disconnects immediately, so doesn't seem to be an issue with the BT toggle or system setting.
Anyone have any ideas of how to speed up the pairing/connection?
Ditto. I always have to long press my cars Bluetooth and click connect otherwise it wont do it

One bump just in case the Sunday night crowd can help.
Have you tried leaving bt on constantly?
The skyrocket has the same issue.
Basically if bluetooth is turned off it kills re connect capability.
I have found that if you just leave bt on it reconects without issue

Hey all, does anyone else have an issue with Bluetooth keeping the phone from going into deep sleep? I have my Z2 connected to my Pebble and the phone hasn't slept all day since taking it off of the charger. I never had this issue with other phones so just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this.

Bluetooth isnt something sony seem to care about
Hence why its stupid
I have this issue too on all my xperia devices and tend to keep bluetooth off when needed
Not sure about Pebble but I have bluetooth connected to my Sony SW2 and headset the whole day and I don't have an issue with phone not sleeping.
When connected to my car, I get wake ups with the notification for "throw" constantly telling me it's connecting, then stops, then starts again. Anyone else have this?

Mine did this in my MB .suv. It would eventually crash the Bluetooth and then restart itself. Quite annoying if I must say. Never had a phone with unstable Bluetooth.

Weirdly mine is a Mercedes too, a C class. Maybe it just doesn't like MB? I dont know if mine crashes but it just constantly brings up this throw crap!

That's interesting, but I was reading the sony mobile forums in Taiwan and there were plenty of complaints about unstable Bluetooth. I had hoped the first firmware update would fix it, but it didn't happen.

Yes I can confirm I also have this issue when paired with my Audi car stereo. Constant wakelocks draining the battery. Is there no fix for this. I think it is related to the downloading of the phone book but I have tried disabling this feature and it still drains.
Sometimes even after disconnection they continue until I reboot the device. They also stop if I freeze / unfreeze the Bluetooth share app using titanium backup

For anyone who's interested I used the xposed wakelock terminator on Bluetooth share and codeaurora.bluetooth and the issue appears resolved with no obvious side effects

For who is keep having the issue, try to take a look to what is happening to my Z3.
I have no solution (yet??) but it looks to be very similar to yours with the Z2.
Hi for those who have played with the Zenwatch 2, have you experienced any bluetooth disconnect issues?
I am about to buy one for my wife but heard there had been some bluetooth disconnect issues in the past with the orginal Zenwatch, so just want to make sure.
Thanks!
Andrew
I've noticed it does seem to disconnect a lot and even close to watch but usually connects back by itself
I have fun into this problem, but it doesn't happen very often. I assume it's a coding problem add Erik Gerry psyched with a firmware update when Marshmallow launches
Yes... regularly... multiple times a day. Phone is always in my shirt pocket, pants pocket or hand, so it's not a distance issue. Wish i could find a way to turn off the vibration every time it disconnects/reconnects
I don't seem to have this issue that I have noticed. Have had it for a bit now with no issues.

I am using a zenfone 2 with my zenwatch. Only time I have noticed it disconnected is when I'm out of range of my phone which is normal. Otherwise everything seems consistent even compared to my Moto 360.

I had a few disconnects beeing next to the phone. But only 3-4 times.
But I had a few reconnect issues after out-of-range disconnects. The watch didn't reconnect properly and I had to fiddle around, reboot, disable BT,...
I just need to use android wear on the phone to retry but it is still odd I suspect it is related to the OS on my phone for saving battery life?

I am using s6 edge+ and it seems to have more bluetooth disconnect issue with my other device after a recent OTA
I reset the watch rebooted the phone then the watch and removed the zen watch manager/zen camera and some unused watch face seems better now
Once we get on this watch. A lot of things can get fixed from us dev's. Just waiting on the source code.

Weird. I have the LG G4 and had the LG G Watch for about 6 months prior to getting the AZW2 and I've never noticed it ever disconnect throughout the day. The only time is when I walk out of range, but it reconnects again when I am in the general area
I just got the disconnect issue today. If I restart the watch it'll reconnect, but only for a few minutes then it disconnects. Rinse and repeat. I'd do a factory reset if I weren't at work and far away from my charging cable.
I bought the Zenwatch 2 a week ago. I'm using it with my S6. Software on both is up to date however the watch continues to get disconnected. Last night I did a factory reset on the watch and after a few minutes it disconnected again. WiFi isn't turned on either (which I read might cause interference with the radio or frequencies). I don't think there's any other option left but to return this and try another Zenwatch 2 (hoping it is an isolated issue).
I had a few disconnects, but only when it was out of range. The thing is, I let the phone somewhere in the house and I just wander around. The range on this thing is amazing! But when I get back in range it just reconnects automatically, just as it should. I must say, I am really impressed with the little one :d
Note3 5.0 stock rooted+latest update ZW2
Just curious if this is the way the device works with my phone, the Android Wear app always says "connected", however, whenever I go to the bluetooth settings on the watch, it's always disconnected...........no matter how many times I hit it to connect, it never does................but I always get notifications as usual, and it will vibrate for every call I receive on my phone.
Wifi is still connected. Never used bluetooth since i last setup my watch. Just using my phone as WiFi access point.

Listening to my phone via Bluetooth is more and more irritating. I'm not an audiophile by any stretch but the crackles, cuts and stops are increasingly terrible. I stream everything, Google music, amazon, audible, it's like my phone can't buffer fast enough to transmit to my car stereo or my headphones. Any suggestions? I am not rooted. I am running tmobiles stock everything.

How long have you had the phone? Perhaps try an exchange? I haven't noticed that problem at all, I stream Google Music, TuneIn, etc. The main bluetooth issue I remember with this phone early on was people not being able to connect to their car stereo. I hope you get it fixed somehow. Are you streaming with a good strong data signal?
Thanks for the reply. Yah. LTE and 5 bars. Its really been since the M update. Gonna just try a factory reset and see what happens. Otherwise I guess there are 2 options after that. Exchange or Root.

This has been an ongoing problem with this phone. I've had a second replacement phone with the same issues. Usually rebooting solves it, but it'll progressively gets worse and worse until you have to reboot again.
I am thoroughly disappointed with this glaring issue, never had such headache with any of the phones I've used before.
Hi folks, I have a new Huawei Mate 20 Pro and it initially had the feature on that turns the screen on when you pick the phone up. That was fine, but I noticed they it kept turning the screen on when I put it in my car dash holder, so I turned this feature off.
However, whilst the screen no longer comes on when I pick the phone up off my desk, it does still come on twice, every time I put it in the car holder.
The car holder doesn't plug into the phone at all, it just holds the phone, nothing more. But he screen seems to turn on and instantly face unlock (or turn on already unlocked, is how it actually seems), so I turn the screen off and then it always happens a second time. After the second time of turning it off it doesn't seem to do it again the whole journey but does anybody have any idea why it does this and how I can prevent it from doing so? My old Samsung never did this, so it must be a Huawei thing.
The only thing I can think is they it could be linked to do with the phone connecting to the car's Bluetooth, but that doesn't explain why it does it twice each time, and I can't find any settings to stop it from turning the screen on when it connects.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
EMUI 9 has been buggy AF for me, I'd say this is just another bug and who knows if they'll ever fix it
The stand doesn't have any magnets?

Do you also get any new notification each time the screen turns on?
In that case maybe your phone (or an app) is configured to turn on the screen to show its notification.
Nope, no magnets. It's a passive Brodit car holder. Plastic and grips the sides of the phone.
No notifications either. I think it must be something related to the Bluetooth, as picking the phone up and jiggling it as if it was in the holder whilst the car is in motion doesn't cause the screen to come on either.

Did a bit more testing with this and found that the screen doesn't come on when I put it I the holder without Bluetooth enabled. So it seems to be connecting to my BMW's Bluetooth that is causing the screen to come on twice, every time I connect the phone to the car.
Usually just as I pull out of my driveway the screen comes on, so I hit the power button, then a few seconds later it comes on again. After that it doesn't come on again unless I receive a call.
Does anybody have any idea how I might stop it from doing this? The BMW iDrive display shows a signal indicator as soon as the phone is connected, so I have no need for the screen to turn on, but it bugs me.
I just want the phone to connect and keep the screen off like my Samsung phones always did...

Maybe try go to Settings - Notifications - Bluetooth and turn off everything and see if it does anything?
Thanks. I've turned off "turn on display" for all notifications anyway, but just went into the Bluetooth settings and unticked the one that puts a notification on the lock screen.
Let's see if that works.
It's annoying, because the Bluetooth also causes the phone to instantly unlock, or the face unlock works really quickly from my phone cradle.

Yeah, same. Doesn't unlock that quickly when it's right in front of my face!
I just need to find the setting to stop the car unlocking it. Perhaps that'll do it. I think the phone needs to be connected to the car to turn that off though.

Just did a quick test.
Turned off bluetooth
Wentout to van
Put phone in cradle
Sat in drivers seat
Hit power button
Instant face unlock.
Guess it works better if a bit further away from the face
