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.
Hey all, I recently traded in my V20 for a new G6.
I've got a 2016 Honda Civic and am having serious issues with Android Auto. Every time i plug in, it will play audio for about 10 minutes and then disconnect. Once I reconnect it will be about 10 seconds to 1 minute before it disconnects again if it connects at all. After clearing app data in AA i usually can get it to stay for about 10 minutes and then it does it again.
I know it's not the cable because i've tested both the cable that i was using with my v20 and also the one that came as a charging cable for the g6.
I have tried turning on USB debugging and also have tried all three USB connection modes.
This is super frustrating especially because for some reason (even though my v20 played audio just fine) the g6 and civic combo will only connect bluetooth for voice and not for media (without crashing.)
Anyone else experience this??
Sorry I can't help. It works fine on my Tesla.
I have what might be a similar issue. I don't get disconnects but on my 2017 Chevy Colorado, if I turn off the truck with the phone still connected to USB (for example, a quick stop at a gas station), after I restart the truck, G6 audio doesn't work at all. I have to reboot. I've tried force-stopping Waze, Pandora, and Android Auto; disconnecting and reconnecting USB; and even going into airplane mode (my phone hitchhikes on the truck's WiFi)... nothing works except a reboot. Literally the only thing I don't like about the G6.
Android Auto was flawless on my previous Nexus 6P ... but it went into bootloop and became a $700 paperweight.
I'm having similar issues with my G6 and AAuto in a 17Civic Hatchback My 1st drive of the day is usually ok But 2nd and thereafter drives no matter how much time in between The radio or music play pauses randomly whether it's a music player on Bluetooth sub Amazon music Pandora even Sirius radio I brought it in for service 4 times they tell me it's the phone or settings on the phone finally got a tech to see what's going on long story shorter they just replaced the entire radio/android system with latest android update well guess what same old same old still doing it very frustrating I had an LG G3 prior and for the most part no issues So is it a G6 thing Android Auto thing or Honda thing??? I also tried 4 or 5 different music player apps that are compatible with AA
When pressing the play button on any music player while connected to my 2017 Civic, it instantly crashes the bluetooth application. Oddly enough, for some reason the YouTube Music application can play multiple tracks without issue as long as you're using a playlist and keeping the screen off while doing so. I don't think that Android Auto is the problem, because it works perfectly fine via USB port and always allows me to interface with the application on my Civic's touchscreen panel. However, I am glad to see that I'm not the only one with this issue so maybe there will be a fix hopefully somewhere down the line.

Hi folks,
I bought a Honor 8X last week, and until now I'm very satisfied, except for one thing: Bluetooth stability.
I use Bluetooth earbuds and speakers on a daily basis, and on all 3 devices I use, I'm encountering regular drops and stutters during audio playback.
I'm using the same devices with my previous phone, a OnePlus 3T, and I didn't get those issues (well, not BT related issues, I had other ones with that phone )
I'm also regularly having troubles to connect to my Anker speaker.
Anyone else is having this issue?
I use BT headset most evenings watching TV etc no pertic brand just cheap ones and not noticed any issue also had my 8x a week nearly

I am facing same issue. Device paired but media audio and input device are disabled. Only showing device is paired
I don't have this issue, it's probably because of the software. If it's not solved with an update, then who knows what's causing the issue.

I don't have this problem. It may be related to your bluetooth device. What is the bluetooth device you use?：○

Well, he said that the bleutooth device worked perfectly with OP 3T, my guess is that the current software of the 8X is the issue.
I fixed this by changing the bluetooth codec used in the developer settings.
1. Enable developer settings
2. Change the Bluetooth audio codec to SBC from aptX to SBC

What's your Bluetooth headset?Have you turned off WiFi for a try?

When I go to developer options, bt audio codec options are grayed out. Can't change anything...
honor 8x cannot find or detect sony wi c300 bluetooth headset...although honor is very good when using it...i am very satisfied but i only regret in terms of connecting bluetooth headset.
I have no issues with bluetooth, the range is better than my previous huawei P8 max and it doesn't randomly disconnect.
What case are you using? Metal bumpers may look cool but they kill bluetooth and cellullar signal.

Hi
I have the same problem and I'm happy to know I am not alone, on French websites I have not found this topic. So my bluetooth headsets are a model called Fozento, Version Bluetooth: V4.2.
And my speakers are Ultimate Ears Boom.
With both I have the same problem and that is very very annoying.
i have the same issue with my bluetooth devices (Bose, JBL)
Hi! I´ve got a weird Bluetooth problem, i hope someone could help. I´ts about data transfer. I tried to send some photos to my work PC from my new 8X. Did not work, it sends a few percent of the photo and then I get an error message "BluetoothStackserver crashed" or something like that. New, up to date PC with the newest drivers, Win 8.1 64 bit. Well, I tried with different other devices, Galaxy S9plus, Honor 7x, Note 10.1 2014, and even my old Surface Pro (also with 8.1 64 bit) it works with everything but my PC. (And my PC works also with all of them). I brought it home, added to my wife´s PC (older but high spec laptop) and also doesn´t work but this time without error messages. I tried to connect to her phone (some LG) also works perfectly. Sending, receiving. I literally tried everything, newest drivers, reboot, but nothing seems working. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Same issue with mine. APTX stutters and is unusable. When I pair headphones that use APTX, I have to turn off APTX and revert to SBC to enjoy listening to music (which is an inferior codec). Something wrong with the software and APTX codec. Hope Honor fixes this in next update.
I am facing the exact problem with honor 8x. Usibg avantree tws 120 and Changing to sbc seems to disable the issue temporarily till i reconnect the buds and forget to revert to sbc as it automatically sets beack to aptx. Worth mentioning i have another galaxy phone which doesn't manifest the problem.
I'm having an odd issue that's been causing my Android TV box to become unresponsive (interface gets sluggish and then remote inputs are repeated 2-30 times, so generally need to do a hard reboot). I suspect it has something to do with my IPTV box, and possibly it's standby screen (it outputs an idiot signal even when off telling you the box is in standby). If I don't switch to the IPTV box, it's generally rock solid, but after going back and forth (seems random - can be 1 switch or 10) it eventually locks up.
It started when I upgraded to the new 4K IPTV box, which also required changing my receiver (damn HDCP). I'm thinking it's not the receiver as I've seen it happen at least once on my secondary TV in the basement(used infrequently, so I'm not 100% sure), which has a similar IPTV box (just lacking the PVR function), but both devices are directly connected to the TV inputs.
Anyone have any ideas? Both my boxes appear to be no longer supported, so a software fix is probably a pipedream, but I can't just buy a new box as they all seem to be AMLogic based.
Setup:
Samsung 55" 4K 6300 series
Yamaha RX-385 Reciever (Switches HDMI imputs, and plays sound via ARC)
Mi Box 3 and Jetstream AGT-418

Hello there,
I bought a USB-c to HDMI adapter today and tried to connect my Huawei P30 to the projector with it and a HDMI cable to watch Netflix.
The problem is the subtitle doesn't show on the projector screen but only on the mobile screen. Same issue when I try Disney +. I then tested with my iMac using the same adapter and cable and all worked well.
I searched here and someone mentioned to disable the hardware overlays in the developer options. I tried that and then yes the subtile worked on both screens however there's a new problem, the image itself disappeared on both screens, left only the sound and the subtitle.
Wondering if anyone can advise some other ways to solve this issue please?
TIA
