Anyone else experiencing issues with Bluetooth or Android Wear? My 360 wont get notifications or stay synced very long. It drops connection a lot.
My lg g watch is working fine so far. It's on 5.1.1 not sure if that matters.
I have a 360, and it's only my first full day, but I've had no issues
No issues on my Moto 360.
No issues on my 360 or G Watch.
No problems with my 360. Been up a week, no connection losses that aren't related to a phone reboot, or similar.
Reset the watch and repair the Bluetooth connection?
I have a LG G Watch R and it took me 5-6 factory resets on the watch before I was able to get it to connect with the G4. Surprisingly I had no issues pairing it with the S4 I had before. I also had problems pairing the G4 with my car and once paired it does not send metadata to the car. I've come to conclusion that LG's implementation of Bluetooth leaves a lot to be desired.

Yeah, there is something funky in LG's bt - software. I had to do factory reset to my LG G watch R to get it to connect to Android Wear app (it was connected to the phone in bt-menu). And the bt-audio is horrible compared to my other phones.

As far as I know, Android Wear doesn't connect to multiple devices. Although, there were some updates recently that I have not received on my MOTO 360, so YMMV.

I assumed that, that is why I disconnected it from my S4 and removed it from the watch. I still had to factory reset 5-6 times to get it to work correctly. Needless to say it's been working great ever since.

Hey all I've had my 360 for a few months now and just started noticing a problem. When I have my watch connected to my phone my phone has a hard time connecting to my Chrysler Uconnect in my stereo. I can't tell if it's a phone problem, Uconnect problem or the watch. It'll drop connection from the car on and off and sometimes not connect at all. I'm pretty sure the watch stays connected the whole time. Once I disconnect the watch, the car connection works just fine.
Anyone else run across this?
These issues are seen with lollipop on phone....
or some people whose phone is moto x or one plus one

It's a Bluetooth low energy issue. Same exact problems with my nexus 5 and my pebble, also exists with my nexus 6 and moto 360. It's very very annoying as it appears to be an issue with android itself somehow. I'm hoping with more Google engineers using wear and a nexus they'll get annoyed and finally fix it...

i have no such issues with pairing a nexus 6 connected to a moto 360 in the ride.
i mainly use poweramp and the connection to the HU is a few seconds SLOWER than i noticed on the htc one max i used prior, but it connects and displays the music data on the ride with no issue. steering wheel buttons also work normally.
stock and not rooted. both devices.
It seems to be select car kid or a2dp devices. My car has the issue but not my Bluetooth speaker. So the Bluetooth device also matters somehow

Were the other Roms aosp or TW? Maybe it's an aosp specific issue

Just got a Moto 360 this week-end and in the car on the way home, my phone calls over bt to my BMW dropped repeatedly. Would connect and disconnect. Rebooted my phone, same issue. Did not happen with original galaxy gear. This is a deal breaker from me. My phone is a stock Samsung Note 4. No car phone issues with a Striiv Touch.

Unpair them and pair again.

I have an older TomTom Toyota Head-Unit on my Toyota Yaris, and it doesn't support Bluetooth Audio. But bluetooth phonecalls are working exactly as before pairing the Moto 360 to my HTC One.
I just disconnect my watch when I get in the car. Annoying that I have to do that.
I just got a LG Tone bluetooth headset and noticed that I got really crappy bluetooth reception. When playing music, it would constantly break up to the point that it was not bearable to listen to. I figured maybe it was due to my custom ROM (I'm running Cyanide L on my Note2), so I cleaned and reinstalled it on my phone. As soon as I brought it back up, everything was fine and the choppiness was gone. However, as soon as I reinstalled Android Wear and paired my Moto360, the choppiness came back. Anyone notice anything similar with their headsets? I'm not sure if this is specific to the LG Tone, Moto360, or the combination of both of them, but it makes the headset unusable.
I have the LG Tone paired to my handset and i have no problems at all, i've heard that some LG tone models have some issues, people say that the HBS700 is the best model with no issues at all.
What model do you have?
My set is:
LG Tone HBS730
LG Optimus G Pro E980 with android 4.4.2
Moto 360 with android 5.1.1
LG Tone 750
Note 2 running Cyanide L
Moto 360 on 5.1.1

The most significant change is support for watches with a speaker. Everybody has known for a while that audio support was on the way. Not only has Google mentioned this in the past, but we've seen that both the Huawei Watch and LG Watch Urbane Second Edition are already equipped with speakers. Nevertheless, this is a pretty good clue the firmware update isn't too far away.

The Asus ZenWatch 2 also has a speaker.
In fact speaker support was the main reason I upgraded from my LG G Watch.
I currently own an elephone p9000 and am thinking of getting rid and getting a OP3. My reasons for change are that the battery life sucks, android pay isn't supported and the main issue is that android wear frequently disconnects from my Smartwatch 3 and refuses to reconnect unless I reboot. If I go out of range of the phone for any reason is also won't reconnect when I'm back in range. Sometimes force stopping android wear will work, but usually a reboot is required.
So, does anyone have issues with android wear on the OP3, or any of my other issues? I don't want to buy a new phone only to have similar issues.
My watch worked perfectly on my OP2.
I don't have any issue regarding bluetooth connection with OP3 and a LG G Watch.
Is it me or does Samsung always have Bluetooth connectivity issues? One of my biggest complaints is that It's always a hassle to connect via Bluetooth. I also own an iPhone and that sucker connects to Bluetooth seamlessly. Especially when connecting to my car.

I've owned the S3, Note 3, Note 5, Note 8, S9, and, now, the Note 10+, and I'd say I only remember some BT issues with one of the early Galaxy phones on that list. I can't remember which one, but they went away as I experimented with different ROMs. Eventually, I was happy enough with the OOTB OS and Samsung overlays that I just stopped flashing ROMs. I've certainly had no BT issues with the Note 8 or the Note 10+. (I didn't use the S9 long enough to have a strong opinion)
In my life, I have, off the top of my head, the following BT devices:
- several portable BT speakers
- 3 family cars
- 2 August Smart Locks
- 2 garage door openers
- a JBL Link 20
- an LG sound bar with BT
- thermostat
- refrigerator
- Nespresso
- several smart lights, switches, and dimmers
- a weird string of lights in my daughter's room
Many of those things only use BT momentarily, while setting up a WiFi connection, but they seemed to work perfectly with my Samsung phones, nonetheless. (I'll get back to you on whether I'm frying my brain and sterilizing my kids with all the wireless tech in my home)

I have used bluetooth devices since my sony ericsson days, the k700i, back in 2005, since there, I have had a lot of various bt gadgets, and, the most common issue is the difference in bt versions, and the implementation, commonly the phone has a higher version, and the gadget has a lower one, and there is where I have found some troubles, not always, but sometimes, at first, say, 2006, 2007, I always thought as you that the phone was somewhat the culprit, but as I have had more and more phones and gadgets, the pattern became evident

Hey there. I had the same issue amongst a few other things. My audio for phone calls wasn't working about 90% of the time. Took it in to a Sprint Service Center and not just one of their kiosk stores. They said it might have just been a bad load from the factory and wiped the phone and reloaded the factory software they had up to date and everything seems to be working flawlessly. Apparently this happened to a few of the handsets. So try to have it reloaded with the original software and not just a factory reset.

Hi, I don't think that's my case. This has been my history with the Note 8 & 9 and now with 10. I always have to manually connect and it takes me 3-6 tries before it connects. Sometimes it doesn't connect at all.
Not any connection issues whatsoever here with mine either..
