Hola,
I'm having Bluetooth problems. When I paired my Galaxy Nexus with my car (2012 Passat SE) and with my home phone, I made my phone visible and then told the devices to search for my phone and initiated the pairing from them.
The pairing request popped up on my phone, I typed in the PIN, finished the pairing on the device side, and it worked.
When I'm not connected to these devices, they don't show up in my list of paired bluetooth devices like my bluetooth headset, heartrate monitor, etc do. I put all of those devices into pairing mode and initiated the pairing from my phone, however.
Now, when my phone is in range of these devices and they start up, a pairing request pops up on my phone. I have to type the BT pin in (twice for my car!) before they're paired again. It is not automatic, and is as though my phone has no memory of these devices at all. For my car, every time, I need to tell it that the car can access the phone book.
How can I get the phone to remember these connections so I don't have to type in a PIN every time?
Thanks!
Rob
EDIT: I'm running stock 4.0.4, rooted.

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.
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 -
I have a rooted HTC One M9 with the stock Marshmallow image (http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-one-m9/development/6-0-verizon-htc-one-m9-marshmallow-3-37-t3318605) from here loaded. I had my BT devices sync'd up, including the one to my truck's Kenwood stereo, but suddenly for some unknown reason the other day I lost all my remembered BT devices. Now when I try and and pair it up with my Kenwood, it offers a 6 digit number, and the same 6 digit number appears on my phone and gives me the option to pair or cancel. Then it fails saying incorrect pin or code. Doesn't seem to matter whether I just hit pair button on phone, on stereo, or on both. If I leave BT on it obviously keeps trying over and over.
The device WAS BT paired before the mysterious disappearing of my BT devices recently.
My bother's S4 connects to Kenwood just fine.
My HTC One M9 is paired with a BT speaker without issue.
I'd really prefer to not do a hard reset, but suppose I could take a Nandroid backup and do it just to see what happens after the reset.
Any ideas?
Thanks SO much in advance for any advice anyone may have!!
My watch is on DP5 and works perfectly but for some reason, when it is connected to my phone, it prevents my car's handsfree system from connecting automatically with my phone. I can easily connect to the car manually by going into my phone's bluetooth menu and selecting it, but it just won't do it automatically. If my watch is not connected to the phone, the phone connects automatically to the car without issue. I didn't have this problem with my Moto 360, so I know it's not an issue caused by my phone or the presence of a watch. Has anyone had and fixed this issue?
EDIT: Fixed it. If you have the "play phone audio through watch" option enabled, the phone recognizes the watch as a bluetooth audio output. Since the phone cannot be connected to two audio outputs at once, the car system will not automatically connect. This option needs to be off if you want the car to connect to it automatically.

wow, will try it today. thanks for the tip.
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.
