[Q] Bluetooth not turning on - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I pretty much cant get my Bluetooth to turn on, sometimes it turns on and works just fine but the majority of the time the widget and also through Bluetooth settings just says updating and gives the look that it actually is updating but never does. restarting phone doesn't help either. any suggestions? thank you so much!!!

did you install a custom ROM by any chance?

yes, I am running juggernaut 2.0

after running several roms I have noticed that the Bluetooth still doesn't seem to work on certain occasions. I am not sure if its probably just my device but after searching and finding no other post about this issue I think I am going to try and get a replacement. Thank you!

You aren't the only one with BT problems. Check out my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19445290&postcount=5

I've had issues like that as well. It turns on/off fine and connects. Then all of a sudden it doesn't turn on. Have to reboot the phone to get it working again.

Yes, I've had this issue as well.
I'm just sayin!

[Q] Bluetooth does not turn on

FYI, I'm on stock SGN 4.0.2
there is no way I can turn the bluetooth on, it seems like it didn't turn off properly,
This is happening after connecting to the car, mki9000 , but not always, so I could not be able to replicate it yet. The only solution I have found is to restart the phone.
Actually the Bluetooth settings seems to be unresponsive, like waiting for a never coming force close.
Have to say though that sometimes it does not connect automatically to the car, others it seems to be connected but it's not.
I'm starting to figure that it could be the way parrot and the phone disconnect. I guess of course, this is a software mistake, so I hope it has easy solution.
Any guess?
I am having the same issue. Glad to know that you've shortlisted to the fact that it always happen when paired/unpaired with the car. Now looking back when I had this issue, I think that's when it normally happens.
I hope someone figures something out for this or I might have to try another ROM.
I'm running Galaxy Nexus on Fido network in Canada (GSM) with 4.0.1 Stock.
Thanks for starting this thread.

ok, this is it!
if you never turn on Airplane Mode (after you reboot of course) it will work flawlessly,
I have heard it could be a radio problem, interfering with Airplane Mode, and its correct, no issues after a few days,
i have also heard, the 4.0.5 OTA will have a new radio.
Thanks

[Q] wifi and bluetooth not working

Hey my bluetooth and wifi both are not working. I go to wifi in settings click to turn it and it says turning on wifi for a while then the toggle sets back to off and if i try again same thing happens again and again. Exact same thing happens with bluetooth, not to sure when it started because i recently started using mobile data so have not been using wifi alot. Im currently using MIUI.us 2.10.19 v4 | 4.1.2 (JB) | 10/20/12 and was on codefire when it started, have flashed numerous other roms, jelly bean or ICS roms with the exact same thing happening each time for bluetooth and wifi. I tried restoring to a previous back up when it was all working but same thing happens there as well. how can i fix this ? anyone else have this problem ?
Your wiping you data before installation of any ROM right?

yes definitely every time i flash roms. The only reason that comes to mind that might have caused this i dropped this about 4 times last weekend. On the SAME night could it be that i damaged something inside ?
Maybe the two cables that are WiFi and Bluetooth came unplugged or are making contact with each other.

Do you know how i can fix ? which cables would it be ? what are the chances of my phone still working if i open it and try to fix it ? I also noticed the volume buttons don't work. They do sometimes, but rarely so if I am looking at fixing it, might aswell try to fix that up aswell. But that is not major, i just want the wifi and bluetooth to work so im looking at opening it up ?
I don't know how to fix it.

Wifi and Bluetooth

Hi Guys,
I have been having an issue with my S4 mini where if Bluetooth is turned on it will not see any Wifi networks, however if I turn off bluetooth it connects and works right away.
I have tried going back to stock and different kernels but I am getting nothing, and its sending me spare, since I sued bluetooth a lot.
Anyone else experienced it?
I am running stock 4.2.2 at the moment rooted, and have tried all sorts of roms and kernals.

I'm running Proxyuser's Slimrom (JB) and F4ktion 1.3.0 Kernal has no such problem. Maybe try this combination? But I remember no such problem even before I did anything to the phone (ROOT/ROM/Kernel, etc), only the battery drain issue at standby.

Thanks! I'll Give it a go.
Ok, what strange is it seems to only be when I have root.
If I have root enabled, nothing, if I unroot my phone, all works perfect.
EDIT:
Well that's not true any more, running SlimKat now, slimjim gave that same result

I got the ****s and sent it back to repair by Samsung, I got a new phone Back and the problem is gone.

Welcome to the club, mate! For me, wifi has almost never worked as it should.
Mostly, it works just fine until the phone goes to sleep for a few minutes. Then
the speed is reduced to around 1-2 Mbit/s, & the only way to restore the speed
is to turn wifi off & then turn it on again. After doing that, everything's Hunky Dory
until the phone goes to sleep again. Then the story repeats itself....
I've almost given up on Samsung by now, since they seem totally unable (unwilling?)
to fix this widely experienced issue. Also, their update scheme for this "flag ship" (?)
suck big time, at least for us wanting the "NEE" version of KK4.4.2....
And btw, this phone also seems unable to record both sides of a conversation
when using a BT headset. That's NOT ok in 2014, Sammy! You've got my
money once, but you've made sure that I won't do the same mistake twice.

Has anybody found a solution to this, I can't download anything in sleep mode, tried all wifi settings, is it just 4.4.2?
Hi , is not the best solution but you can try Juice defender to automatically turn wifi on when phone wakes.
I'm on dr Ketan V14 rom and wifi works fine.
I hope that can help you.
I realize that this is an old thread.... amazing how they just peter out with no real solution.
N7100, stock ROM, Rooted, and have Xposed Deep deep wifi sleep activated.
This happens about 90% of the time coming out of sleep, even the wifi quick setting is un-illuminated so have to turn it back on. When phone is shut down and then restarted, it happens 100% of the time, even after a full re-install of the ROM, 4.4.2.
I've stopped worrying about it.

Bluetooth not working on boot, but works after toggling off and on

Weird problem I'm having is with the Bluetooth on my Galaxy Tab 3. I'm using the AOSP on Santos10Wifi ROM and whenever the device starts, I have to turn on the Bluetooth manually. The thing is that it doesn't turn on, but looks like it's frozen in trying. If I exit and re-enter the Bluetooth setting, it goes back to Off, but then it's able to successfully turn on and I can connect my keyboard to it.
Anyone else have this problem or found a workaround? I'm guessing it's a simple fix but I can't seem to find it. If you know how to fix it, please post.
Thanks,
DJ
