i searched for "bluetooth" in the troubleshooting question and couldn't find someone with this issue. Bluetooth starts but doesnt pick up anything. my tablet picks up the signals but my phone doesn't on anything even my car or my headset. what could i be doing wrong ? it worked on stock correctly btw.
Try doing another clean install of the ROM. Sometimes the GPS won't work correctly the first time either.

My Dinc works fine with my Jawbone headset with the stock ROM, and also works with Fusion ROM, which I appear to be stuck with.
I have tried CM builds and several other ROM's and none of them will acknowledge the existence of the headset. I've tried restarting and pairing in different ways. I even held them right next to each other. :^)
Is there a separate BT radio that can be installed in the other ROMs I'd like to try so that BT will work? I tried posting on CM and got silence.
Searching a bit, I found that some folks have a USB brick problem which also messes with BT, but everything else on my phone works. But I'm finding nothing else, maybe I don't know the right terminology.
Any ideas, please?
Hey guys,
I'm having some pretty bad bluetooth issues, and my searches haven't really found a solution. When I attempt to connect my phone to my car headunit, my headunit shows it's connected and my phone also shows connected. But the audio still comes out of the phone speaker. After a few minutes it will disconnect and reconnect a few times, sometimes only showing headset connected and not media. Eventually the bluetooth just locks up saying "connecting...". If I turn off bluetooth on my phone, the stereo still shows it is connected to a bluetooth device. I tried to "forget" my device and re-paired, and the process seems fine except the phone never asks if I want to share my phonebook, so I assume something behind the scenes is already broken at that point.
This is a very new problem for me, and my bluetooth was working fine with this headunit for months now using numerous different ROMs from GB to JB. I was on AOKP JB build 1 when this started. I tried a full wipe and reflashed the ROM and still had the problem. I have tested this on about five other ICS and JB ROMs and am currently on CM9.1 and the problem is continuing. I also tried a different phone to make sure the problem wasn't my headunit and the other phone worked as expected.
Has anyone else had this problem, or does anyone have any direction for me to fix this? Thanks!
I have a similar problem with aokp jb, when it wasn't present before. The head unit shows my phone audio connects but the media audio does not connect sometimes. I would have to reboot my phone or fully disconnect my phone from the head unit and pair them again.. no real solution but it is slight work around and to say that you're not alone

Thanks. I've had to reboot or re-pair in the past every once in awhile, but neither rebooting or re-pairing is fixing the connection anymore. Anyone else had this problem? Are know if there is some sort of log I can find on my phone that might give some clues to why this is happening?
Problem Solved....
I tried my phone in a different vehicle, with a different headunit. No problems at all. I went through my head unit menus and found an option to clear all bluetooth data. I assume this clears all paired device information from the headunit. Everything works perfect now. Phone pairs fast, stays connected, and all functions are perfect. I hope this helps someone at some point.
Ok so it's been a while I didn't use my phone with a wired headset, but some time ago I would always use it to listen to music on my daily commute. Lately I started using it again. I've always used it with some Soul SL99 for music and calls with no problems.
But since 2 days ago I noticed it stays on headset mode even after disconnecting the headphones. when I make a call the built in mic and speaker don't work and the proximity sensor disabled. I can use it on speaker with no problem, and if I connect the headset people don't here me clearly. I have to restart the phone to exit headset mode on it, but whenever I connect my headphones it'll stay in headset mode no matter what until I restart it again.
Only weird thing I've done is try out different audio mods, like AwesomeBeats, Ac1d audio and Noozxoide. So I can't tell if it's damaged hardware or software. I've tried full wiping my rom, I've tried 3 different Roms including going back to 4.1 and on every single rom it does the same thing.
So basically my question is, could it be software driver related? Or most likely hardware? If software, would there be a fix? And if hardware, what piece would it be, the loud speaker/headphone module, or the headphone flex cable?
Has anyone experienced this before?
I have no experience with it, but maybe this will fixed in the next update to fix Bluetooth streaming.
Can you try cm10 stable or another 4.2 rom and see if that helps

I did, I tried AOKP latest build, XenonHD, CNA 3.8.0, and some others. Still does the same thing. Hopefully it is software and I won't have to buy replacement parts.
No one can help?

I've bought a Nexus some days ago and it already came with 4.2.1. I have just added root and CWM.
Yesterday I tried for the first time to connect it to my car's bluetooth handsfree kit. I activated Btooth, but I've not found any way to make the phone visible. Tapping on the phrase "your phone is not visible" did nothing. It was searching for devices but found nothing. Later at home I've found on google forums many people that have problems with bluetooth on 4.2.1. I also found that in some situation it is impossible to turn it off, and it does not work correctly. I have found this advice:
Go in settings - applications. swipe to the right last page "ALL". Search for bluetooth pairing app. Click on it and terminate it. Maybe you have to tap twice. Now your BT is off. Now go in application again (or use your favorite widget, like widgetsoid) and turn BT on again. Now it should work (for some time, only !!) This way I was able to pair Nexus with handsfree and also I've made some calls.
From forums, it seems a software bug. Found in other phones also, not only on Nexus.
Cheers

Just wondering if anyone could help me please, I'm having problems connecting my M8 to my car's Bluetooth hands-free it just keeps connecting then disconnecting in a loop every few seconds never had this problem on my galaxy S3. I have tried it on my friends car with a different model stereo and works fine. I am getting the latest map DVD in a few days not sure if this will help but if it does not is there anything you could suggest? would a custom ROM help I know you can change Kernel and Modem but would either of these solve a problem like this?
Thanks for any help.
I have the same problem hopefully there's someone who knows how to fix it. The only thing I found out to work for me, is to manually turn the car's bluetooth off then turn it back on. Then the loop stops for me. But its kinda annoying to have to do that every time I start my car. I own a Nissan.
Had this problem with my mazda. Turn on bluetooth and go to the settings. Hit the menu button and select advanced. Make sure you allow files to be transferred over bluetooth. I can't look at the exact setting at the moment.
Try again to pair. It may take another try or two. This resolved my issue.
Has anyone encountered issues with connecting with a car bluetooth? My wife phone conntects with no issues.. She can use the cars remotes to make and receive calls.. Mine I have to pick a contact from the phone for it to work, it will not work with the car or my work truck controls.. It seems everytime it ask if my car or truck can access my contacts, I always choose allow, but nothing happens, but it works with the wifes.. This is with the Lollipop update, that we both have...
happened to me I just rebooted my phone and it connected, also check settings for that paired device

Got one to work, in my truck.. The car it worked for a while, then quit.. I will try it agian to see if it will stcik... Most likely caused by the 5.0 update..
I've noticed a Bluetooth problem that suddenly started in the last week or so. I upgraded to Lollipop when it first hit, and didn't have any problems.
Now, however, after Bluetooth works fine for awhile (I can connect to a Pebble watch, Bluetooth speaker, car Bluetooth, etc) all day long - then all of a sudden it can't connect to ANYTHING. Toggling Bluetooth off\on doesn't fix it.
Restart the phone, then everything works just fine for awhile. Until it doesn't, and I have to restart again.
Anyone else experiencing this pattern?
I've actually had the opposite happen. I have a iSimple bluetooth box in my car. I've never been able to auto connect with either VZW Note2 or 4. The CS rep told me it had to do only with VZW phones and he couldn't help me out. On another forum, another member mentioned he didn't have any issues with his older phone, so I dug out my old HTC Incredible. Sure enough, it would auto connect. Something changed with Lollipop, and now my Note4 will finally auto connect to the iSimple box. I tried using a third party Bluetooth app prior, but it didn't fix the problem.
Finally got the one in the car working as well... Because the wife and I have the same phone, I just simply changed the name of my phone and it works fine..
If your talking about the developer edition one rom update.. YES.. What fixed mine was wiping everything and redoing the one rom lollipop, then twrp, then installing Ricks Rom Lollipop, things have been perfect. I even addressed it in the ricks rom thread the week.
I haven't had any issues connecting devices but since Lollipop, when I am connected to a bluetooth speaker (car, bose, other bluetooth speakers) the audio gets choppy randomly.
I have done some searching and found others (LG g3) who had the exact same issue after updating to Lollipop.
I have tried rebooting, using different music apps, unpairing/pairing, forgetting the device ect and nothing seems to work. Anyone else having this problem after updating to lollipop? Anyone know how to fix it?
