I got a Samsung WEP460 for xmas and tried to connect with my Desire (non-branded (not unbranded!), non-rooted, official firmware) and it paired once, made one phone call with it - seemed to be working great.
However, I disconnected bluetooth and reconnected it later (assuming it would just connect up) and it seemed to have lost my headset from the pairing list in settings->wifi and bluetooth -> bluetooth
Tried to turn on the bluetooth headset into pairing mode again but got no lights/sound from the headset...
Thinking it had just run out of juice (not charged enough) - charged it up again, and it let me re-pair it to the Desire - however it asked for the passcode, then said paired but not connected.
pressed to connect and it wouldn't connect -
repeated this a few times and it still won't connect again at all.
When it tries to connect once and fails the headset seems to lock up and i get nothing out of it - not sure if this is a headset issue, or a Desire/Android issue...
Anyone else have any thoughts on this before I take the headset back to the shop?
thanks
tried connecting the headset to an iphone which worked.
tried on my desire again last night and that worked too.
the only difference was i made sure that the headset was 'turned off' (held for 4 sec to disconnect from phone) before turning off bluetooth on phone and then it seemed a lot happier...
strange!
Recently got the jabra bt3030 to use in the car.
I'm able to pair and connect it with the evo initially. However after turning off either the BT in the evo, or powering the bt3030 off, it doesn't reestablish connection upon power up of both devices.
I'm running the rom in the sig. I'm not all that familiar with BT devices, but would think if the pairing has been previously defined, when both are power on and within range, they would automatically reconnect.
I must be overlooking something?
Thanks!
Anyone? Bump
Hello everyone
I have upgraded to B510 which I have rooted so that I could get a higher volume output in the jack out.
But I have some problems. I can't connect my Jabra Revo Wireless headphones with bluetooth. It simply just says failed to connect. It worked like a charm with my Logitech bluetooth receiver. My Jabra headphones also worked like a charm with my old phone which was a Huawei P1 unrooted. My headphones have been connected to my P6 before I rooted it, but has never worked like it did with my P1. There has always been some trouble in the connection proces between my Jabra headphones and my p6.
Another weird problem is the Dolby sound service. When I listen to music, it's on but suddenly it turns off. I can turn Dolby on again just by turning on the screen and turning it off again with the power button. It starts to work again when I turn off the screen. I think it may be something power saving option, but I can't find any settings.
Hope you understand my two problems here and I hope someone can and will help. I haven't been able to find a similar post.
Thanks.
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??

Had exactly the same problem htc10 would not pair with car bt. changed my passkey on car to 0000 still a valid code and phone paired straight away It was driving me insane trying to make it work. Worth a punt if you can change passkey

Hi, every one! I bought brand new JBL Bluetooth Headset, model name is JBL Reflect mini BT2, and when i turn bluetooth and headset on, there is nothing in the pairing menu. I had older BT-Headphones and everything worked fine. However, the JBL headphones connect to my Galaxy Tab A perfect. On my Mi5S runs LineageOS 16.0, latest update.
Greetings
You might have already tried this since you managed to pair the headphones to another phone, but maybe they don't want to pair to a new device unless the following is done:
To connect to a different Bluetooth device, first switch the headphones off.
Now press and hold the center button on the headphone remote control for about 3-5 seconds.
You should see the light blinking red/blue to indicate pairing mode, and the voice prompt should state “looking for device”.
You should see "Reflect Mini 2" appear on the source's BT list. Choose that option, and wait for the voice prompt to state “connected”

I do this everytime and also did a hard reset on the headset and still not found.
I'm on LOS 16 too and don't have problems connecting to a headset or BT speaker. Here's one crazy idea Go to Developer settings (might need to enable them first - go to About phone, and click on build number at the very bottom until you get a note that you're a developer). Now go to System, Advanced, Developer options and under Networking hit Show Bluetooth devices without names. This will give you a list of BT MAC addresses. I'm curious if you see the JBL listed now. You can get its MAC address from the other phone.
