[Q] Bluetooth Issues after 4.3 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I have a jabra bluetooth headset Ive been using for awhile and have had no issues with it what so ever, until I upgraded my phone to 4.3.
After 4.3 after about 2 minutes of talking, nobody can hear me, but I can hear them fine. If I switch the call back to the phones speaker/mic and then back to the bluetooth it will work for another minute, This was extremely frustrating so I completely hard reset the phone and started over. Same deal. Any ideas?

[Q] Sound stuck in earpiece after disconnecting bluetooth headset?

I've used many ROMs (Viper, Bonsai, Nebula, currently ACS Syndicate) and I've had this problem on all of them. I've even ODIN'd back to stock before and it still didn't fix my problem.
After disconnecting my Epic from my Jawbone Icon headset, the sound often gets stuck inside the earpiece. Music, movies, games, ringtones will all play from the earpiece instead of the speaker behind the phone.
Is there some software fix to correct this? Can any of the devs point me in the right direction as to how I might troubleshoot this (maybe at the kernel level)?
Thanks in advance!
This doesn't really go in Development, and I suspect it will be moved soon.
I can tell you, though, that I've experienced similar problems, intermittantly, and here's what I've observed.
If I'm listening to music through bluetooth, before I disconnect, I'll stop the music. Then I'll turn the bluetooth device off. Then I'll turn bluetooth off on the phone. If I do it in that order, I don't seem to get the bug.
If you do still get the bug, rebooting fixes it.
Hope that helps!
This is a known issue. It's a bug that has to do with being connected to a device for both media and phone calls. If you use only one or the other it doesn't happen.

It's very annoying for me as well.
The other bug that I noticed is after taking a call over BT, when I end the call, the earpiece on the phone starts randomly popping. rebooting fixes it but it still really irks me.
I think the OP is wondering if there's a way to dig around in the BT stack and fix it ?

This stuff has been going on since DK28 and before. I believe Rodderick was looking into fixing it from the kernel side, but I'm not sure how much progress has been made. I know it's not as bad as it was on DK28, but still very annoying. It used to happen to me all the time (audio going through earpiece instead of speaker after disconnecting Bluetooth) when I would turn my car off and it would disconnect the Bluetooth to my car stereo. Now that I have the Samsung Car Dock, I just connect Bluetooth for phone only, and use the audio out on the Car Dock for Navigation and Media.
Moved to Q&A.
i am having a simular issue but mine is that when i connect to bluetooth headset i have to have media playing before i get a call or i will not hear the other person in the call.
it seems to me that ANY bluetooth headset with A2DP is doing this and i have tried 3 diffrent headsets. Jabra Stone, Jawbone Icon, and the Blueant T1.
all 3 of these headsets do this. does anyone have any solution yet?
Even if there isn't a fix, I wish there was an app to reset the sound settings post facto. Anyone know of one?
I just want to add my name to the list of those who are affected by this. Glad it's not just me, though. Hopefully it can be debugged easily.
For the record, a Quickboot Hot Reboot (reboot of Android only, not phone) does NOT solve the issue. Only a full reboot works for me. Seems like it may not be a software issue but something hardware-related.

Just want to add this happened to me the first time just now. I'm on rooted EC05. I was scared for a bit that the speaker had blown. Then when I discovered it all coming from the earpiece, I remembered this thread. A reboot did make it go away.
I wonder if it has any relation to the issue I see once in a while since the upgrade where my BT devices need re-pairing and ask for a passcode, when they really shouldn't.
I Also Have This Issue
I have had this exact issue since DI18.
After I hang up a Bluetooth call, I have popping sounds coming out of the earpiece. Turning off Bluetooth doesn't fix it. Turning Bluetooth back on after turning off doesn't fix it. In addition, after this happens, all devices sounds (phone ranging, notifications) all come through the earpiece and *not* the main speaker.
I've had all of the stock ROMs up until EC05 loaded on this Epic and have had the same issue throughout. I am now running midNIGHT ROM, which has cured most problems I’ve had with my device, except this issue.
I was just poking around trying to find some sort of tool or the name of the service(s) that I need to restart to fix this issue.
Same issue for me. Quite annoying as I listen to audible over bluetooth quite a bit, and then pretty much know I have to reboot when I turn bluetooth off.
SRF users have reported Bluetooth issues being cleared vs. stock builds. I can't say exactly why, but it does seem to work.
What are SRF users?
Nope...
Syndicate Rom Frozen...
Well, I'm on SRF 1.1.1 and I've got the same incredebly annoying audio issue.
Please, someone, come up with a fix!

Help! My Note 2 drops bluetooth phone audio during phone calls

This happened recently. When I make phone calls with my bluetooth headset, my AT&T Note 2 with stock rom will drop the phone audio in the middle of the phone call. The sound will come out of the speaker on the top of the phone, instead of the headset. I did notice that this begins to happen after i installed a phone signal refresher app. I notice that when it's refreshing my phone signal, it also turns my bluetooth radio on and off. I have since uninstalled the app, but the bluetooth problem persists. Please help me. Thanks!
Did you also try repairing your Bluetooth headset. Unpair first. Reboot your phone, then repair the headset try again! Hopefully that helps your issue!!

I am suffering from this very same problem, could you please elaborate what do you mean and how did you fix it..
Much Appreciated
Uninstall the app?????
I have a completely stock GN2 on 4.3 and I am experiencing bluetooth issues since the upgrade. I use bluetooth in the car and when I get a call, if i switch to the device rather than the radio, it will switch back to the radio after 30 seconds or so. Also, the radio used to go quite when on a call, now it will kick back on. I ended up powering down the radio just so I could talk on the device.If anyone has any ideas.....

Bluetooth issues

Hello there, I am having a bit of an issue with my Bluetooth and I was wondering if anyone could help out a little bit..
As of a few hours ago, my bluetooth just dont work. Well I cant say that, it sort of works.. I can Raise the volume, End Calls, Accapt calls right from the headset itself, but for some reason the phone just refuses to dump the call audio and input to the bluetooth. Voice still comes out of the phone itself.
This is what I have
Sprint Galaxy Note 2 l900
Rooted with CM11 11/26 build
my Headset is a Blueparrot Xpressway
The Headset worked fine, flawless on the phone the entire time untill a few hours ago.. Any ideas ?

I would try restarting the phone. Also I find that sometimes if I turn on my headset before turning on BT on the phone the results can be flaky.

Audio Issues: Can't make calls

I am not sure if this has been discussed before, I tried searching around but I couldn't find anyone dealing with this issue before with the GS3.
I've had this problem with the Motorola S305 Bluetooth headset I started using with my GS3. Basically it would have problems going back to regular non bluetooth calls after I would use the headset, even with bluetooth off the call would turn off and on over and over again, but eventually with repairing bluetooth or forceclosing bluetooth share and the phone app I was able to get it to go back to making calls normally, using the speaker for audio as well.
But 3 days ago that changed, I couldn't get it to make calls after I had used the bluetooth headset to listen to some music for a few hours. It'd take 20-30 seconds to launch the phone app and by then it'd have zero audio. The people I called said there was no volume when they connected, and music wouldn't come out of the speaker again. I tried the fixes I had used before, no dice.
I tend to run rooted but just haven't had the time lately to get back to it, so I've been running stock, nothing complicated, but I figured when I pulled the 4.3 stock upgrade that would have to fix it....but it didn't, same issue. I also factory reset, no difference. I can still bluetooth pair and get audio to the headset for music, but i can't make calls that way, seems to have the same 30 seconds of jammed no changes.
I took it to sprint, they had no clue obviously, it wasn't a corporate store and the closest one is a hour and a half away. I'm about to actually call them and demand a replacement be sent, but I should be able to figure this out somehow, am I missing something? I hope someone has dealt with this stupid issue before.

Anyone with this specific BT issue?

Phone has been solid since a week ago when I got it. Works like a champ, BT audio in the car works(2016 Colorado with MyLink NAV system)... Works really well with Android Auto... phone call quality through the car was perfect... Updated to 3.2.1 yesterday or the day before, still works great, no issues...
Today I am on a couple calls in the car, no problem. Hang up on one call, try to make another about 10 min later, says I am connected to the person, but I cannot hear them and they cannot hear me. Try a few times, same issue. Try calling other people, same issue.
Reboot the phone, same issue. Stop and turn off the car for a minute, same issue. I can talk to them on speakerphone, but no audio goes in or out over the phone via BT or Android Auto. Other sounds like music and everything work fine. Everything works fine in fact, except any audio associated with the phone.
Visual Voicemail, won't play through the car, only the phone speaker...
I reboot the phone and car again, same problem.
I delete the BT connection in the car and the phone and re-pair, same problem...
I am gonna go to a friend's house to try his phone, but has anyone ever heard of this? It was literally working fine for a week up to today, I didn't shut the car off between calls... It was working, I hung up on the call, tried to make another one a few minutes later and now nothing works...
Help!
