paring a BT headset w/ other devices... - General Accessories

I've got a Jabra BT8010, and it works great with my Moto Q9c...haven't had a problem yet.
However, I've encountered a few anomalies pairing it with my PC and PS3.
I've got the BlueSoleil BT device on my computer, and as long as the headset does not have the computer in memory as a paired device, then it will connect fine, and all works well.
However, if the computer has already paired with the headset, then when it attempts to connect by "calling" the headset, the headset can't "answer" the call...so it keep vibrating and ringing until you stop trying to connect to it w/ the PC.
Connecting it w/ the PS3 yields a different issue...it will connect fine, even if it's been previously paired and connected, but it can never seem to keep the connection, and the "audio devices setup" within the PS3 shows no mic activity while connected, and usually causes the connection to drop.
I've read in quite a few places that people have had no problems with the BT8010 for pairing with a PC or a PS3
The only thing I can come up with is that either the BT8010 firmware version I have doesn't work with the PS3, or the new firmware in the 80GB PS3 doesn't work w/ the BT8010
this is very frustrating...

well I just figured this out....
DON'T HAVE ANYTHING PLUGGED INTO THE USB PORT.
I was charging a controller on the PS3, and as soon as I unplugged it, the headset worked fine, doesn't drop connection, and is being recognized as the audio input device, NICE.

Getting Bluetooth Audio to autoconnect.

I have used my SGS3 for a while now with the built-in bluetooth phone connection in my car. The first time I used it I had to go through the pairing process, ever since then it automatically connects as soon as I turn on the car. I don't have to touch anything, as long as I have bluetooth turned on it connects.
So, I added a Logitech bluetooth audio receiver to the car http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Speaker-Bluetooth-980-000540/dp/B004VM1T5S
This unit paired with the phone fine, and remembers the pairing. Only problem is every time I turn it on, I have to go to the bluetooth menu on the phone and tap the entry for the logitech adapter to get it to connect. It's a few more steps that I'd like to make this work.
Can anyone suggest a way to my phone to auto connect this pairing?
I know it's uncool to bump your own post, but really........nobody?
Really unsure but try deleting the device from your phone reboot and pair again. All I can think of.

I have the same problem and I have not been able to solve the problem. I am using a Blackberry Bluetooth Stereo Gateway. It would auto connect just fin to my Evo 4G. It will not auto connect on the SIII. If I look at the Bluetooth settings I will see it briefly show Connecting before dropping off when I power up the gateway. It has been this way since I got the SIII. I have only tried the stock ROMs. I am thinking about trying an AOSP ROM to see if it makes a difference.

Trouble with headphone/car aux

Been trying to connect this to my car but seems like it won't register add being connected so it never actually connects to my car. Works well with headphones, not when plugging into my car.
Yeah, many people including I are having this issue. BT works flawlessly so I'm using that to play music in my car.
I think I might have Bluetooth. But it's easy also with the cable.
Plug something into the usb port at the same time. It takes some playing with it but I've got mine working

Bluetooth pairing problems

Hello, I am getting weird problem when using bluetooth devices with my HTC 10 (stock rom)
I bought a bluetooth device with aux-in for my car radio.. That way I only enable BT on my phone and devices connect without problems.
But I also have a small Bluetooth speaker I use when I renovate the apartment (JBL GO).
The problem is when I paired car bluetooth device so it can connect automatically and after that also connected bluetooth speaker this one does not want to connect. If I unpair car bluetooth device, the speaker connect normally.. also if speaker connect and I come down to my car and try to pair to car bluetooth device, it doesnt want to connect/pair... Again if I remove BT speaker from paired devices, car bluetooth device connect normally...
Why is that, anyone knows a solution? Why can I have only one BT device paired with my phone?
Thank you for answers
i have this problem too.
Had this problem myself.
Updated to the latest firmware, rom and kernel.
Currently using cleanslate.
Turn on the BT device, make sure no other BT devices are in the near radius which may confuse it, no wireless devices (I know hard in this day and age)
Turn on BT on your phone, hold it up clearly (not laying down) close all apps, and open the Bluetooth menu.
Click the Bluetooth device to make sure it's ready to pair. Then scan on the phone.
Should start picking it up.
Repeating this and turning the BT device on and off periodically, allowing for several attempts at a time before switching off..
Even really it'll work, perhaps a different rom or kernel combination may help..
I have had this problem, once connected it'll always work and work well. It's odd
Same issue somewhat..I really want to keep this device...i dooooont want to go back to the s7. But on the S7, i could have my Gear S2, Sync and LG Tone all paired at the same time...If i got a call they would all ring and i could answer on whatever device...now if i have the LG on, sync wont find the device. or the phone wont allow for sync to use the Phone, because the S2 is using that feature...what gives? just me?

Do you have another device to try it with? i have had a similar problem, but its just my terrible bluetooth rockford deck causing me grief, and an ebay pill. But it did it with a lg g3 and xperia phone as well. so i chalked it to that
Seems like HTC only allows one bluetooth profile at a time. Like it will only allow one device to use the phone profile or one device use the media profile.
I have to turn off my tone for Sync to connect. Sucks.
I've had this problem since purchasing the HTC 10 about a month ago. My Bluetooth earphones work without issue, but I've been unable to connect to my car or portable speakers (pairs but never connects).
After reading this thread, I unpaired the earphones, cleared all devices, and I was finally able to connect to my portable speaker. So glad I found this topic.
Still, I'm hoping for a fix. I don't want to bother with pairing and unpairing just to connect to a different Bluetooth device.
Similar problem
Hello !
I am having a similar issue!
I have been trying to register and pair my phone with my car's Bluetooth.
Every time I try to pair with my car an error message pops up saying "couldn't pair with Hands Free System because of an incorrect PIN or passkey" except it never even prompted me to enter the passkey...
Things I have already tried:
Resetting network settings
rebooting phone
Factory reset phone
Also , I do not have any other devices paired with my phone.
Any suggestions??

Bluetooth

I'm having an awful time trying to get the g7 to auto connect to a hyundai elantra. When i initially pair it will connect and stay connected. Once I leave the car and then return, bluetooth will not auto connect. I have to go through the whole pairing process again.
I use several blutouth headsets and speakers, smartwatch and toys.. No problem. What so ever
Maby try hyunday forums.
A lot of people have problems with connecting to cars so it's already known thing. Try opening the Bluetooth menu to see if it's trying to connect at all.

Anyone try out a ps4 controller via bluetooth yet?

Trying to pair a PS4 controller through Bluetooth and it's not working on my note 10 plus. It pairs fine but the phone seems to receive no input from it. Trying to unpair the controller hangs and never finished disconnecting. If I turn off the controller, the phone still thinks it's connected. Turning off Bluetooth takes a minute or so as well.
It works perfectly fine on my wife's s10 plus, and after it failed to work on my note 10 I tried pairing it with my note 8 for the first time and it also worked perfectly. I was really looking forward to using Samsung Dex with my living room TV and the PS4 controller to play emulated games.
Hoping this is a software issue that can be fixed and not a bug with the Bluetooth radio on my phone. My gear fit 2 paired fine and works great as far as I can tell. My headphones work fine through bluetooth and so does the bluetooth/aux adapter in my car. So it leads me to believe it could be software issues. The controller works fine on everything else.
I checked for updates and there was an Android update from Verizon but it did not fix the issue.
Also the controller works if I hook it up to USB via the USB C adapter included with the phone but the input is all wonky. Shoulder buttons are start and select, up is triangle, etc. I know there's ways to alter the input to fix that but it works perfectly by default on bluetooth on my other two Samsung phones.
