Bluetooth problems sorted with Froyo ? - Desire General

on the edge of updating to froyo at the moment but might wait a week or two for the little problems to get ironed out..
just wondered though if they have improved the Bluetooth on the phone ?
I have heard a few people having problems with the HTC implementation of it and have myself a device with pairs but does not connect
thanks
mitch

hi mitch,
bluetooth issues are still there after official htc 2.2 froyo update.
I have a Logitech diNovoMini keyboard that can pair but not connect to my desire.
htc broke the damn thing...

Bluetooth woes
I have just bought a Linx B-Tube. It should function as a bluetooth headset (only it has a speaker). I was hoping to pair it with my Desire which was running Cyanogenmod RC1. I couldn't get it to pair so I decided to make the leap to the nightly to see if it made any difference....nope!
I can see the device and I am prompted for a passcode for connecting. When I enter the code it just goes back to the original screen and doesn't pair.
I have also tried pairing to my MacBook pro with the same result..
Any solutions would be much appreciated

I have a Vodafone unbranded HTC Desire running Froyo, and I have a similar bluetooth problem. It really sucks. My Plantronic bluetooth headset can pair and connect with the phone without any problem. The connection is fine and will automatically be re-established if the headset is in range. However, occasionally, yes, occasionally, the headset will be detected and connected, but can NOT be used. I can see the icon that shows that the bluetooth headset is connected. However, clearly the phone voice output is for whatever reason NOT routed to the bluetooth headset, and hence I can't talk using the headset. I found that once I got this issue, the only way to solve it is to unpair and re-pair the bluetooth headset.
Very annoying. These days software quality control is very poor.

Hi my problem is different. both with Android 2.1 and 2.2 my bluetooth headset (Blueant Q1) works fine except when the Wifi Connects to a new hotspot. When this happens teh bluetooth headset discoinnects and then reconnects : (
Maybe I should be happy it works most of the time listening to previous posters !

bluetooth paring problems WM6.5

Yesterdaty I updated to WM6.5 and now try to get everything working again. Somehow my TP2 won't pair with my bluetooth carkit anymore. With WM6.1 this was no problem. The phone still pairs perfectly with my computer (also bluetooth connection) so I think the bluetooth connection is ok.
When parining to my carkit it finds the device, then I have to enter a password on the TP2, and after that it just sais "pairing connection failed", and it will not work. I am sure the password is not changed since yesterday. I tried it several times. I do not know what to do anymore. Could this be a setting somewhere? I get the feeling my password is not send properly but have no idea.
Meanwhile I tried pairing my carkit with another phone and no problems there. So my conclusion is: something has changed with bluetooth, updating to WM6.5 which makes it now impossible to pair my TP2 with my carkit.
Is there maybe a programm for the TP2 which give me more controll over bluetooth (like maybe go to an older standard)?
I have exactly the same problem as you
good to hear I am not the only one. Hope someone will come up with a solution for this.
I did nor observed any issues when pairing my TP2 after reflashing to WM6.5
There is another issue however - I can not hear any voice until it is charging.
Unplugging of the charger fixes this issue immediately. Horrible...
Seems, HTC guys are saving money on testing by using us as Beta Customers.
Would a custom ROM be a solution for us?
I updated to the "energy 6.5.1 rom" and guess what..............
The same problem. The rom is very nice, but my TP2 still won't pair with my BT carkit which is very big problem for me.
Is there maybe a way to downgrade just the BT part of a rom to WM6.1. I read on different forums there is something that is called a BT stack. Could this be the problem?
I have a ton of problems with bluetooth pairing now. However, I don't know whether it's the fault of 6.5 or the Tilt 2. Here is what I am experiencing...
- On car deck or headphones, the skip buttons don't do anything
- on car deck or headphones, I have to disconnect Stereo Audio and then reconnect to actually get sound. It NEVER works when it auto connects.
- Music will do a brief skip when you shut the screen off
- Stupid message about volume control every time it connects (resolved by switching to custom rom)
- SMS or any kind of alert tone now turns music way down so that the tone is the only thing you hear. Which is super awesome when I'm driving my drunk friends around and they are singing along to a song when suddenly it mutes so everyone can hear my incoming text message.
Not a single one of these issues existed when I had my Fuze.
Same here
My bt headset (sony hbh ds970) and simply does not find the pairing...
I asume is a problem related to energy´s ROM

No I do not think so, because I used the official WM6.5 with the same problem. Does someone know a way around this issue. I strongly believe that if only I could pair I have some options to work with it (in 6.1 it worked like a charm). If I only could pair without having to send the passkey it would be great step forward. I presume with sending the passkey, the bluetooth of the TP2 sends out other "rubbish" that confuses my carkit.
My problem is solved and guess what, it had nothing to do with my TP2. The problem was my carkit. It has a maximum number of bluetooth devices (5) it can pair to and the last one (the WM6.1 version of my phone) had been reached. So a hard reset on the bluetooth carkit and the problem was solved.
Well, at least I now know how to flash a rom to my phone and I think I learned more about the phone reading through all the forums. Thanks all for thinking with me on this problem!
Does anyone else still have this problem?? I have removed all the devices from my car and continue to have the same pairing error just after entering the passcode. Stock Spint ROM worked great, but multiple 6.5 upgrades don"t pair..............suggestions/ideas??????
bluetooth settings, advanced, enable beam data exchange,check the box
Interesting.....I actually found a fix. Instead of pairing the phone with the car, I paired the car with the phone. I didn't even know that this was possible, but it did the trick!

problem using bluetooth headset on desire

Hi all, I have a new Bluetooth headset h680 which I have paired with the desire, its connected and when on a call the person on the other end can hear me but I cannot hear them....anyone have a similar problem?
No, but only tested Plantronics 975. which works fine.
I Have a problem with the bluetooth as well. The connection and pairing are OK but there is no sound coming out of the headset.
I've google it and it seems there is a general problem with the bluetooth audio.
I also have a bluetooth problem.
I paires with my car kit (jvc kd-r711) and after a few seconds i get a error saying "headset disconnected"
I've read similair problems since the froyo update. Anyone else have the same problems?
@johnsten
Yes, I have the same problems with my Volkswagen Golf 6 navi!
At first, the phone connects just fine. No problems at all. Made several calls, phone book is synced automatically. All fine..
But then after some time it gets bugged. When I tart my car, and the systems sais.. phone connected. My desire sais "headset connected", and after some seconds it says "headset disconnected". The Bluetooth connection remains active, but the phone is not in "headset" mode.
The only thing that really seems to fix this problem is a full system swipe, but then I lose all by programs and Angry birds savegames
I really want to get rid of this problem. Any ideas?
Grtz, Ron
similar to jah, only tested the plantronics 975, never had issues
also working well with my Jabra Extreme so far
no problems with Nokia BH-503 and SE MW600
No problem with my SE MW600 either, for 340 SEK (36€) it has everything I need: volume, back, play-pause, forward and mic
No problem with either my JVC-901 car head unit or Sony Ericcson HBH-980 stereo headset
ford focus bluetooth headset issue
Hi there, I have a problem with the desire and Bluetooth with my Ford focus.
It pairs fine, but looses connection after about 45 seconds. If you check a task manager you see the Bluetooth process at very high CPU after the disconnect, for a number if minutes.
If you make a call before the Bluetooth drops out it remains connected for the duration of the call !
Tried disabling WiFi etc, makes no difference.
Any ideas?

I had just the exact problem no problems any more though after this fix I dont know if it was a bad rom flash that screwed something up for me but BT works great now
I have the same problem, bluetooth paired but can not hear anything. I tried over 10 different, but it does not help. Can anyone solve this problem?
I'm having a similar problem with my car stereo & HTC Desire bluetooth connection.
I have a Silvercrest stereo with blutooth which worked with my provious Nokia & Blackberry but cannot get it to work with my Desire (2.2 Froyo)
The 2 devices will pair but when I try to make a call or receive a call the devices disconnect.
I am not at all savvy about flashing ROM's or anything so as simple a resolution as possible please...(& no, changing my car radio is not an option )
Any info is greatly appreciated as I spend a lot of time in the car & need the hands free

I have a Pioneer 7100bt car radio and a Desire with Leedroid 2.2f and i does the same.
Does somebody know a solution??
I too have a H680 and like you, callers can hear me however, I can hear them but very quietly even with volume full up.
I also have a Jawbone 2 where I can hear callers but they cannot hear me very well.
The Jawbone 2 was fine with previous handsets.
No solution though, sorry.

Bluetooth incar needs constant repairing for in car stereo

I have a HILUX that comes with bluetooth.
For some reason every few days the Bluetooth won't connect automatically, I am required to disable and enable bluetooth on the DESIRE HD 3-4 times so that it connects fine. If it doesn't work then I have to repair again and the issue comes back again in another few days.
Is anyone experiencing this issue also with any of their bluetooth devices?
Yes I have some issues with bluetooth and the handsfree kit opel cd70 it connects but after a cople of seconds it disconects
For me was it gingerbread I downgrade it to froyo and it worked for me

[Q] Bluetooth not working on Galaxy Nexus

Bluetooth appears to be broken on my Galaxy Nexus I can discover other bluetooth devices fine, and they can discover the Nexus, and pairing appears to be successful from either direction. But as soon as I try to connect/transfer a file immediately I get a notification on the Nexus saying 'connection unsuccessful', 'transfer cancelled by user' (when I didn't cancel anything!) etc.
I've tried this with three different devices (my old HTC Desire, my wife's HTC Legend and my MacBook Pro) with the same results on all three.
Has anyone else run into similar problems, or does this sound like I've got a faulty unit and should send it back? Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this any further? (I've not rooted the phone and its running the stock Android 4 ROM).
I wish I had an answer; just got my Galaxy Nexus yesterday; it won't pair with any of my bluetooth(s) -- they were all working fine in my Droid so I know how to pair. Any suggestions? Help!! Thanks
After further investigation, it seems it's just outgoing connections that don't work on mine. I can transfer files from other devices to the GN fine, just can't transfer from the GN to any other devices. Haven't tried connecting to a headset or anything like that as I don't have one.
I asked an acquaintance who also owns a GN to test it out on theirs and they experienced exactly the same thing - everything works ok except for outgoing connections/transfers.
I'm wondering if its a software bug if that's the case. If it were hardware related you'd have thought the whole bluetooth thing would be broken.
FWIW: I have been able to pair and connect via bluetooth with my car, with no problem. Downloaded my phonebook to my car via bluetooth as well.
Bt phonebook pairing
I'm having BT issues as well with my G-Nex on Verizon. Will connect/pair with my car, works for making/receiving phone call audio, but will not synch the contact list. Thus, cannot use voice dial in my car (Nissan).
Have searched all over the internet, no real answers. Tried to disable the existing bluetooth PBAPservice as suggested somewhere else - no dice, and it just restarts itself anyway. I've seen some suggestion about rooting the phone and replacing the PBAPservice which may be my next step. Hate to root a phone this new when I may end up returning it if I can't make this work ... sorta a deal breaker for me.
Anyone have any suggestions? Could my phone just be defective? Seems like there are a number of BT issues around, but I can't find anything "official" acknowledging the issue(s) ..
Thanks ...
I'm having a problem with my new GNex bluetooth as well. I'm using a Blackberry Stereo Gateway (an A2DP adapter) in my car and it -does- work, but only after I toggle bluetooth off and back on again. That's kinda annoying.
Previously I had been using an Incredible and it was working fine.
Having problems with Bluetooth as well. I have a BlueFusion unit installed in my car. Worked perfectly fine with my Droid X. Every time I got in the car, it just connected and calls and music both played over the stereo fine. Got my Galaxy Nexus paired and it worked great. However, whenever I get back in the car and the Galaxy Nexus reconnects, the audio does not work. It says it's connected, it plays with no audio coming out of the phone or the car speakers though. Tried re-pairing, no go. Tried bluetooth on/off, no go. The only way to get it to work, is to reboot the phone every time I get in the car.

Does A2DP work properly? And what sort of bluetooth device are you pairing with?
Same here, sending files works, receiving doesn't. Pairing with my bt headset also works fine....

I had this problem when I fist boot the Nexus and after the first boot of the update to 4.0.1. Reboot the phone, re-pairing the devices and everything is fine since then.
Sent from my GT-P7300
I can't even get my Nexus to pair with my car (Kufatec FISCON unit for Volkswagen). Just straight up error "unable to pair" when I try it. :/
And I have a problem as well. I did get it to pair with my PC but I can't send any files from my PC to Nexus (it works fine with Desire).
I have two Nexus (one is my wife's) and both car have Blackberry Bluetooth Gateways in them. In both cases I am seeing the same issue as the OP, the bluetooth will not connect automatically. However if I manually power on the bluetooth on the phone when the gateway is in connecting mode than they will connect. I never had a problem like this with previous phones.
Is there a official way to inform Samsung of this issue?
I'm also having problems with bluetooth on my Galaxy Nexus. I wanted to transfer files via bluetooth from my old Incredible 2 to my new Galaxy Nexus and it just wouldn't work.
Edit: A reboot appears to have fixed the problem.

I have this same issue exactly - and had this issue after a System Update on my Droid Incredible for a few weeks before I ended up buying the Galaxy Nexus. I had hoped the new phone wouldn't have this issue. Anyways, it also seems to happen when I take a phone call.
Scenario: I'm listening to music over bluetooth to my bluetooth audio enabled headunit in my car. I receive a phone call, and toggle the bluetooth off so I can take the call privately over my phone's earpiece. When the call is finished, I toggle the bluetooth back on and the phone will connect - however the music is playing, but no audio comes through the phone nor the speakers of my car.
I started having this -exact- scenario issue when System Updates started rolling out for Droid Incredible, and they added the options for "Phone Audio" and "Media Audio" under the bluetooth options. Before these System Updates, my Droid Incredible had worked perfectly with bluetooth audio in my car.

I am having similar problems with both my car's BT phone and BT audio.The phone through my car gets terrible static until I stop and start Bluetooth again, which is dangerous on the highway.
I hope it can be fixed with a little software update.
I have the same problem with new nexus galaxy, pairs well with car bluetooth audio, can hear a confirmation beep on car speakers but no luck in the phone. It just stays on paired but not connected. It doesnt allow to remove pairing and redo it untill rebooting the device.
I'm also having issues with the bluetooth audio in my car. I pair okay with my Sony Xplod head unit, then when I turn off the car and reconnect, the GN starts playing music through the internal speaker instead of the car speakers.
I'm having the previously mentioned A2DP issue as well. Everything connects fine but occasionally, no audio is heard via the deck in my car. Phone calls via bluetooth work, just no A2DP audio.
For those having this same problem, you can fix issue by toggling airplane mode on and off. This is quicker than rebooting (which also fixes the issue).
This has to be a bug. I'm running 4.01. Anyone having the same issue with 4.02/4.03?

Yes. I just got mine last night...ran some errands today. Paired fine in my car, can make and receive calls through the car's audio system, but no sound. I'm running 4.02. Tried this with my BT headphones and the same thing happens.
The airplane mode trick works, however. Thanks!
Hopefully this will get fixed rather quickly!

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??
