Bluetooth headset answers and drops call - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone have isssues with their bluetooth headset ?
I have a Plantronics m70 and a m165 and if there is an incoming call, and i press the headset button to answer, both headsets will answer and drop the call right away...
Is there a setting or soemthing that I missed?

Update: I've tried with a samsung bluetooth device and it does the same thing. Also whats weird now is that when I have the Samsung bluetooth connected and I tap on the screen to answer the call, it answers and drops the call.
Can anyone help ?

Something similar just happened in the car a few minutes ago. Add that to my bluetooth problems.

Yeah. It's annoying.
I cannot answer a call while on a Bluetooth headset. I have to deny the fall and call them back.

I tried with a Motorola bluetooth headset today and same thing.
I've done some more testing and noticed that with calls from landlines, the calls don't get answered and dropped. It gets answered normally.
I should add that I am rooted and running the ROM from tx_dbs_tx.
I have the same issue with rooted stock rom as well.

Plantonics Voyager Pro+ and BT prob

The phone rings both the headset and the evo.
When anwering the call with the evo the call is not transfered to BT. Answering the call via the headset works correctly.
Voice dialing doesn't work through the headset. The Evo seems to turn on the speakerphone instead of listening to the headset.
Any ideas? Should I get an Iphone instead? (kidding)
it is supposed to answer at the headset if you use the headset to answer the call so if your bluetooth is not within reach you can still answer the call. Are you initiating voice dial thru the headset with a long press...Ihave the Pro and it works fine with my EVO
same here, if i answer on the headset it goes straight to headset, if i answer on phone it goes to phone until i press the call button and it transfers over

Yes long press.
Are your sure that Evo is hearing you via the headset?
I'd like to long press and then say "call home", which works if I'm close enough to the phone. If its on the dashboard I almost have to SCREAM.

thats exactly how ALL BT headsets work, or are supposed to..
As far as voice dialing, it sounds like operator error, as I have the same headset, and it works perfectly for me all the time..

As far as operator error what could I possibly be missing? Its pretty straight forward.
Also I have the bug where in I speak to Vlingo and then turn off BT, EVO reboots.

Dropped calls during headset use, anyone else?

Wanted to ask if anybody else is having dropped calls?
Using the headset included in the box and another one that I have that I know works the call kept cutting out after 5 minutes or so and then the call hanging if I did not wake up the screen.
I thought it was a phone issue obviously, but if I leave the screen on and play around with it, then the phone call does not hang.....
Also if the sound cut out and before the call was dropped, if I wokeup the screen then we could hear each other again.
Has anyone else got this issue? I am on the original Three firmware v1.26.xxx, handset was sim locked but now sim unlocked.....
And since then I have tried calling with just the speakerphone and the call did not drop, not used the phone for long or with the speaker near my ear as I usually use a headset.
Thanks.
Bump, someone must have used the headset and made a long 10 minute+ call?
Using without a headset and the speakerphone the call has not dropped.
I only use a bluetooth headset but i don't seem to have problems with it (and i realy talk alot at the phone).
Just FYI this does not happen anymore for me after installing the 1.28 update from Three..... Still waiting on the other updates for other fixes!

Galaxy S3 - iPhone 5 Headset?

Hi. I want to know how to get the iphone 5 headset to work on my galaxy s3? I'm aware the volume control will never work but assumed everything else does. Some have said they have managed to get it working on their galaxy s3 either through specific software or ROM changes?
Right now I can make calls to other with the headset working perfectly, but when I receive calls from others I cannot hear them nor can they hear me. So the problem only occurs when I RECEIVE calls. The mic is really important to me.
Any help would be really appreciated.
OK. I've narrowed down the problem. The headset stops working when I press the middle button to receive calls. In other words, if I answer a call using the actual phone, the headset works fine. If I do press the middle button to receive a call, I can no longer hear the other person nor can they hear me through the headset.
Does anyone use the iphone 5 headset with the galaxy s3? Does the headset work for you?

The workaround I'm using now is to have auto-answering enabled while a headset is connected. Now i'm trying to find away to reject calls with a single click but after trying various apps I've not been able to do so.

Bluetooth drops to handset volume on incoming calls while on a call.

I'm currently using an LG G3 Vs985 on Sky Dragon 5.0
I'm also using T-mobile on the LG G3
I use my phone for work a lot and the most annoying thing is happening. While I am using my bluetooth headset and talking on a call, if somebody tries to call me and my screen is telling to either accept or deny the incoming call, my bluetooth speaker drops to handset volume. I have to deny the incoming call, then quickly tap to turn off bluetooth and bluetooth again to get the call back to my bluetooth.
While already on a a call if somebody is talking to me while an incoming call comes in, I miss an entire sentance or two before i can do all of the above to get the audio back to bluetooth.
Is this a wrong setting I have on the phone or simply a bug with either Lollipop or Skydraggon?
"Edit" I got so annoyed I went to my wired headphones and I noticed the issue is not happening on my headphones. I didn't expect to happen but i wanted to note that the audio does not drop to handset speaker while using wired headset.
I appreciate the help.
I wanted to update the post that either it was a phone reboot or possibly of me flashing the Skydragon 4.2 kernal to the phone that fixed the issue. So far as of right now the audio is not dropping when talking or listening on an active call with another incoming call requesting to be accepted or denied.
Edit: The issue has returned. This is goofy !! lol

Bluetooth calls problem

Having a strange problem on my S20U Exynos. I'm connected to my Sony Bluetooth head unit in my car and anytime I answer a call it's just silence. I can't hear anything. But if I make a call then everything works perfectly. Any thoughts on how to fix the incoming call issue? It's getting annoying having to turn off Bluetooth when I answer the phone.
Have this problem with my 2013 Infiniti but both making and answering calls. Suspect its a bluetooth codec issue and maybe changing that in developer settings helps, but haven't had time to play around.
