I never had this issue with my 2010 VW Jetta when paired with my Droid Bionic - But every time my GS2 is connected, it remains connected for about 5 minutes, at most, and disconnects - It NEVER stays connected, paired, but not connected, and I need to reconnect. any ideas of how to keep this thing connected? Is it the "car's fault"?
What ROM you using?

Has it always performed this way with that car, or did it just start recently?

Before I rooted my Evo and upgraded to 2.2 all in the same day I had no issue with BT and my car connection.
Now my phone will connect to my car via BT, but then disconnect within 30 seconds. Then the car fails to reestablish a connection with the phone (even if I cycle the car, off and on) unless I cycle the BT off and on , on the EVO). After cycling the BT on the phone, the car will reconnect, only to lose it again within 30 seconds. ?
Ideas or thoughts?. Is this a hardware issue with the phone (doubtful) or a 2.2 issue or is something not right between 2.2 BT stack and the car BT system
The vehicle is a Ford with the "Sync by Microsoft".

What ROM are you using?

same problem here. using Fresh 3.40.1
driving me nuts... i haven't tried it yet as I have 4G in my area but I hear Cynogen works...
Google and HTC know there is an issue in 2.2 with Bluetooth intermitent disconnects. The 2.2.1 supposedly fixes this but, it is only available to a few phones.
While others Android devices I use seem to connect (and stay connected just fine), my GS2 T989 will connect to my VW's bluetooth system but, generally, disconnectes after 10-15 minutes. My Bionic stays connected until I release it.
Any settings I need to change?
Mine would do this while the connection tried to use the internet proxying. I have Toyota Entune. However, after this last update, the bluetooth has been rock solid. I'm guessing the driver update fixed a bug. I would do the update if you're on stock.
BT Toyota Problems
I am on Darkside Evolution 2B3 (Beta 03) and love this ROM, my only issue is that occasionally my BT connection will pause and unless I cycle through modes on the Car it will freeze. It works fine on my wife's toyota (Camry) but it locks up in mine. Does anyone else have this issue?
Got my AT&T Galaxy Note II. Have left the ROM, bootloader, etc. all stock.
Where my Galaxy Nexus would have trouble uploading my phonebook to my 2012 Honda CR-V car stereo without Navigation system, the Note II seems to pair without issue.
HOWEVER, if the phone is unplugged from power... about once every two minutes it drops the BT connection from the car stereo, and about 20 seconds later reconnects. I say if unplugged, because if I plug the phone into a cigarette lighter charger, the BT seems to stay up and stable.
I figure this could be a BT timeout issue, or perhaps some power setting we could adjust? I have disabled the power management functions on the Note 2, but that has not prevented the issue from occurring.
I also have a Sony SmartWatch that I have paired to the phone. The watch doesn't have any issues, but whether I have the watch on or off, I see the same functionality between the phone and the stock car deck.
I'm having the exact same problem, I thought it was an issue with my vehicle's Bluetooth antenna.
I tried calling Samsung about this issue and they were, as expected, pretty unhelpful.
I'm having a similar problem with my Ford Sync Bluetooth connection. Except I'm only using battery power.. The first time I connect for the day, all seems fine. Any subsequent connections during that day are problematic with connect failures or random disconnections.. Must be a gnote2 bug as my gnote1 (stock ROM) worked perfectly in my car.
As soon as I read this, I began to wonder if my issue is somehow related.

same problem here with SGN2 and Veloster...I lose my connection after a few minutes. Before with my HTC, I had no problem .
BT works fine for me in my MDX stereo and on my BlueAnt device. I don't have to plug it in or anything... just turn it on, pair it and go.
My note 2 is bone stock - just rooted so I can use Titanium Backup.
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 since I made the last update I have noticed that there are problems with the Bluetooth. I always keep it active to keep it connected to the smartwatch. I have found that often the phone no longer recognizes it and there is no way until I restart the phone. The problems are accentuated when using the wifi hotspot.
Yep the whole coms system on the 6 is poor. I have disconnection issues with headphones and wahoo cycling computer. Just no fix despite resets .

Yep, my 6 Pro Bluetooth connection to my car has gone backwards in quality in the latest 12.1 stable build
Mine will be fine for an hour and then suddenly disconnects all devices. Then it reconnects on its own. It's not fun when you are on a call or virtual meeting.
Mine is staying connected to my watch without any issues, and when connected to either my car or earbuds I don't get any drop outs at all.
This is on the March update, but I don't use it with a hotspot on the phone though.
I am hearing impaired and have my 6 Pro paired with hearing aids, my car, and my smartwatch. When the phone rings, it is anybody's guess where the phone's sound is going to go. It is so frustrating. In my OnePlus 7 pressing the volume up or down would let you pick where to direct the audio but the pixel doesn't see that as necessary. Boy is it ever!
No issues with the connection to either car, but here's an odd one.
I have a connection to my Samsung Galaxy Watch4 & my Plantronics 5200 headset.
From time to time, if my phone rings, I put on the headset & turn it on, it will connect,'
answer the call, then anywhere from 20-45 seconds later, disconnect the headset and
put the connection back on the phone. Doesn't do it all the time.
Everything is up to date, stock, not rooted.
