Bluetooth issues after MM update - Sony Xperia C5 Ultra

Hi to all, long time reader/lurker, first time posting
On topic, i have a Xperia C4 E5306, updated from lollipop to marshmallow via flashtool ver. 9.19.8, no issues, everything went fine, aside some functions with new names or in different place, all dandy... except connection with my kenwood car stereo (KMM-BT312), actually, it connects fine, just it doesn´t display media info like it did with lollipop, it just displays BT AUDIO, but no song title, artist, etc.
Has anyone come up with this error, if so, did you were able to fix it?
Thanks to all, and i hope somebody can help with this little anoyance.
Ramon S.
Ps. I did try by deleting devices, pairing, unpairing, renaming devices, resetting the phone AND the car stereo, to no avail.

Firmware update
I find an updated firmware for my kenwood headunit, firmware 0.32 to 0.36, still the same problem, no media info from bluetooth, odly, USB connection shows all media info... So now i am pretty sure it´s an android 6.0 issue.
Cheers.

Bluetooth working just fine... Bravia engine working for u??? .... Not working for me....

I am having problems with Bluetooth after upgrading to 6.0
Connected Watch Sony SmartWatch 3. When the screen is turned on - off on its own Wi-Fi
In 5.1, this was not.

Same issues for me. Bluetooth completely full of bugs and stuttering since upgrade to MM on my C5 Ultra Dual. Perfect before. Frustrating how the device is now totally useless for my day to day needs. Have approached Sony several times and they have no answers or don't answer. But certainly, have no idea of what is causing issues since upgrade to MM. My phone was perfect on Lollipop. Complete rubbish now. Done full reinstall. No difference. My guess is its "Throw" causing issues.

Bluetooth Not Discoverable

My LTEVO (running Stock w Goodies 3.28 rom) bluetooth problems started last week when I tried to play music through my Alpine deck. I noticed it was skipping and stopping so I unpaired it, after that my deck couldn't find my phone and my phone couldn't find my deck. Also tried to connect to my Bose Soundlink and Moto Keyboard, no dice. Any advice?
If you haven't already you can try a full wipe and a fresh install?? Or have you tried a different kernel ??
Also you can make a nand of your current rom and try a fresh install of a different rom. Also you can try a nand of an prior rom you may have to see if the problem still exists.

3.28 gave me bt issues. Skipping, failing to pair, ect.
Jumped to viper 3.0 with no issues. Might be isolated issues but a reflash of 3.28 didn't help the issue. Seems like a rom related issue and there are better roms out these days. Might as well as make the jump.
Bluetooth Problem Solved
I know it's 2 years later, but here is the solution, and it is so simple that is laughable. You see, the issue is really a hardware problem. There needs to be more pressure on the contacts inside of the phone near the camera lens for both Bluetooth & WIFI. The solution is demonstrated in this simple You Tube video. Go to You Tube, and search for the following title: "Connection, Wifi and Bluetooth problems on HTC One X - SOLVED (not opening the phone)"

[Q] is a bluetooth headset version3 compatible with android jellybean 4.1.1?

hi
i have an m155 plantronics bluetooth headset which has a specification of bluetooth version 3.
when i use it with my android jellybean 4.1.1 mobile phone ALCATEL 5035E (unrooted) to play music, the music stutters,
drops off, then resumes, then finally drops off completely without resuming, although bluetooth
icon remains blue. i touched the bluetooth icon to disconnect it. the icon
blinks and does not stop.
i brought my mobile phone for service and they replaced my phone with a brand new one. but the same problem occurred.
the technicians said it could be a problem with the bluetooth compatibility with the android jellybean. they said to update my bluetooth device so that it becomes compatible with the android 4.1.1. i was skeptical because i had this vague thought that there is no such thing as updating the software on a bluetooth headset.
i checked on my android device, and the bluetooth version on the mobile phone is 4.1.1-1350
sorry if i sound stupid to ask you guys. but i need to give the technicians an answer so that we can move forward in finding the problem. Your answer will help us go in the right direction.
does the bluetooth headset need to be the same version with the android phone in order for it to function properly?
is there an android update that fixes my issue? if so, how do i get it?
thanks much

[Q] Xperia Z Ultra Issues: Bluetooth

I'm not sure what's wrong but I've been having bluetooth connectivity issue last few days. I paired the Z Ultra with Sony Smartwatch and I noticed that the Smartwatch would loose connectivity every once in a while, even though the phone is in my pants pocket or just 30cm away from.
I did all the usual troubleshooting, restarting both devices and re-pair it.
Anybody experiencing similar issue?
I have actually experienced a problem with the bluetooth when pairing to my Jabra headset. I have only had the phone for a 2 days and just recently updated to build number 14.1.b.0.471. Since then, i havent tested out the bluetooth yet. However, i have seen some bug fixes.
Have you updated to the latest firmware yet?

Yes, the phone is up to date.
I'm having Bluetooth issues with various headsets and this phone. Some of them disconnect, some hang, some randomly will have one way voice in the middle of the call.
Running the latest firmware. Something is up with the BT drivers on this phone.

i had similar issues with bluetooth and linking to my car. at first it worked fine, but if i would change input on car stereo and come back, to the bluetooth, the mb bluetooth would auto start google play music. the solution for me was to remove all device from bluetooth option from phone and car and it worked perfectly.
That sounds worrying cos I ordered the SBH52
Hope they fixed this. Haven't tested my blue tooth yet cos I don't have a BT device.

The thing is, I only paired one bluetooth device to the phone. As mentioned above, I unpaired, restart and re-pair the Smartwatch again and the issue persist.
I find it weird because it worked fine when I first paired the Smartwatch with the phone. The problem only occurred recently
I've had nothing but trouble using SBH50 (same with both firmwares 1.0.A.4.0 and 1.1.A.0.7) with Z Ultra (14.1.B.0.475). First time connection (NFC) went smoothly. Followed by lots of trouble within minutes. Frequent lost connections (even when they were just a few inches apart) followed by requests for pairing. Random loss of media or phone audio without any warning sign.
Connection was stable only after uninstalling the SBH50 android application (and all the smart extras), disabling Sony Smart Connector and execution of manual pairing. No more event reminders, but at least it is now usable for music and phone calls. Hopefully Sony will update firmware/software to address the connectivity problems.
[Edited 30 August 2013: Happy to report that the connectivity problems were resolved in firmware 14.1.B.1.510]
how about me, i can't event send a file from my laptop to my device?
anyone can help?

broken bluetooth
hi guys, ive been looking for a fix to my bluetooth. i just bought SW2 but i still unable to use it because apparently the bluetooth on my phone could not detect the watch. I have tried reset, fixing it via companion apps in windows but problems still persist. i have tried using my galaxy with SW2 and no problem there. basically it was my bluetooth inside the ZU that are causing all the problems. Im on the latest build .257 and are not rooted. Bootloader is locked and everything else is stock. When i tried to connect via the 1-touch NFC there's dialogue showing up on my phone that the watch is connected but nothing happen afterwards. the SW2 is still in its pairing mode and there are no instruction to ask me for download or anything as shown by Sony in their youtube channel. Im growing frustrated with this phone. Having to live without root and now wasted $200 on a watcg that i cant even use. argghhhhhhhh....any help is much appreciated guys!
I have the same problem with the Sony SmartWatch 2 when I talk in my BT headset the phone keeps losing connection with my watch.
edit: system restore did the trick
Im also facing unresolved issue with my xperia zultra and bluetooth connectivit.
My phone is unable to recognize any bluetooth hardwares and its becoming quite annoyiing.
Has there been any remedy to this issue?
Thanks

Z5 compact and Android auto music not working

Has anyone who has received their z5 have an android auto head unit in their car to test with? I'm having a problem where audio from Google play music won't play over USB when I'm using android auto. I'm wondering if it is just me.

I dont have the android auto head unit, nor I have the Z5 but I do have one suggestion.
Is it a Bluetooth connection between the unit and the phone? If so, maybe u used the unit with a previous device? You can try reset the unit to factory defaults if possible.
I use an alpine car radio for Bluetooth calling and after updating my Z from KK to LP, it did connect but not all features where working.
A full factory reset of the radio fixed this, so it might fix things for u also
Sorry, but no that isn't the problem. Android auto does not use Bluetooth audio for media. It uses USB audio for media, and Bluetooth audio for phone calls.
Is it only Google play music that doesn't work? Does Spotify work?
Sent from my E5823 using Tapatalk
I found that amazon music also does not work but Spotify and tunein radio work fine. Weird.
Just for anyone googling and finding this thread--
Software update 32.0.A.6.152 fixes this problem.
Google play music playing through android auto now works correctly.

Still isn't working for me and I'm on 32.0.A.6.200 - I've got a VW Discover head unit and it tries and fails to link using Android Auto before failing over to Mirrorlink.
I've got the VW Discover Media and don't have any problem.
At the begining, the connexion was crappy (2 or 3 attemps to finaly work) but now, I've disabled Throw and it's working...
I've since upgrade to Android 6.x (Marshmallow) on the Z5 Compact and still no luck getting it to work with the VW Discover head unit ... does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried the usual stuff like setting USB for MTP transfer and enabling USB debugging/dev mode.

2016 GTI owner, with the Discover head unit. I got my Z5C today and applied all the updates to take it to 6.0. Didn't have to do anything other than install the Android Auto app, sign into GPM and accept the various disclaimers.
My previous experience with setting up Android Auto is that your phone needs an active data connection during setup.

[Q] Connection with car's Bluetooth, no media.

Hi
Whenever I connect my car's Bluetooth with my phone, I can make/receive calls but I can't access the media on my phone. I have tried clearing the cache, unparing and paring back again but still doesn't work. The option to use media in my phone is also enabled.
I previously had HTC Sensation and it worked absolutely fine with the same car, even media worked fine too.
Can someone please help me?
My phone is:
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 - Snapdragon and 3GB RAM Variant.
Screenshot of the ROM below.
Thanks
Edit: My phone is not rooted. But if it is guaranteed that rooting will solve the problem then I would root it.
i have a similar issue and like you many other phones work fine. I have a bug fix request into google if you'd like to add your info maybe we can get this resolved. Do you have BT 4.2? What kind of car do you have?
