[Q] Bluetooth Issue when connecting with OEM Car stero

heylo everyone,
experiencing a issue which had become a pain !
i have a ford figo with OEM stero (India) which is an awesome one. i had a SE ARC before i moved to HTC One X and with Arc, once paired, there was absoultely no problem ever to pair it again, all i had to do was to switch the bluetooth on and it used to connect.
with HOX, i have a major issue, the first time, it connected flawlessly, was able to make calls, play music from phone thru bluetooth on the stero system. but then comes the problem! it doesnt work the next time, i tried to delete the pairing on both car and phone but with no joy.. i did a factory reset and it again worked once.. next time, it says its connected, but when i play music, it plays on the phone's speakers, i went to music player settings and tried to select the player as bluetooth but doesnt make any difference... i read couple of people having similar but not same problem, some have crackling issue, some are unable to connect, but this is strange, able to connect but only once.. i havent formatted the phone again for this and its a little cumbersome as all my music is on phone and i always used to use the phone to play music.
any help will be much appericiated

I have the same with an after market Sony.
Really erratic pairing. Always pair's phone but not media.
Have to randomly switch it on and off for a while til I get lucky.

It works the same as my SGS2 on my Infiniti (Nissan) nav system both for phone and media. The One X has BT 4.0 which I'm assuming is backwards compatible but it might be a challenge with some systems/devices.

Barry, Possibly yes, but i beleive new technology is always backward compatible ..
anyone had a fix ? i read about some bluetooth stack fixes, but looks like it was for a previous HTC device and not HOX..

I can fairly pin the issue down to your car audio not playing nice with Bluetooth 4.0. Yes, its backwards compatible, but, that's not always a guarantee. Get some other Bluetooth 4.0 devices to check.

My HTC one x with pair perfectly with my Mazda 6 Bluetooth. only thing is the steering wheel controls won't skip music. quite annoying if the wife's tracks come on!

have you tried restarting the phone when this happens? I happens to me now on the HOX and did happen on my old desire. If I restart the phone all connects fine and can phone and listen to music.... although the music stutters. using an aftermarket sony.

This same problem here with after market Sony MEX-BT3800U.
Before I use to have Desire HD, which was fine, now it's a nightmare.
Maybe somebody have more luck with different after market model which works perfectly with HOX ?

Mine is a Sony unit too... Possibly that one off the top of my head. It's annoying as sound quality via aux in is awful due to the low volume

Got the same problem in my Mitsubishi Outlander navigation system.Don't know why.Must be the version of the bluetoot that you'r car isn't recognizing it.You can try to do a factory reset of you'r car stereo,i did that the other day and now seems that it's working well,don't know the reason why.I think that it's the cars fault because the bluetooth headset that i use doesn't seem to have any problems working or connecting to my HTC.Even if you have open "slots" in your car to connect you'r phone,the car doesn't whipe the data of the last phones you used on it,that is why i am saying to do a factory reset.I don't know if you can do it yourself,i went with my car at the Mitsubishi Service,they conected the computer,reseted the navigation system,connected my phone and now works.

I find it ridiculous that a £150 Sony head unit has issues, wheras I have a £20 Nokia cheap bluetooth headset that works flawless, thats a good few years old.

Solved ! Bluetooth Issue when connecting with OEM Car music system
Finally this is solved for me after the 1.28.720.10 Update it now connects flawlessly and works like charm everytime anyone else who had problems tried this ?

Mine works fine with my Ford OEM headunit.

I havent had the update yet so will have to wait for that to try i guess
Mine takes agaes to pair to car BT and then doesnt connect when in range

Same problem here with a Sony head unit.
Phone profile connects flawlessly every time
Media profile seems random (though I have better luck if I leave the head unit on and switch bluetooth off and on again on the phone)
My software version is 1.28.401.9 so I guess I'll sit tight for an update and hope it cures it. I get nothing new if I try to trigger an update, so it's probably a case of waiting for HTC to pull their fingers out

Mine works great with my Sony head unit and am on 1.26.206.2 (o2) I even stream my music flawlessly phone calls work can you not take ur handset back and say its not working and exchange it for another 1

i have a mazda 3 and i have the same issue! i checked the heck out of these forums and havent seen anyone reporting the same issue i have, i was beginning to wonder if it was just me.....
has anyone else had issues with track advancing etc? not just with cars but with other devices like headphones or bt boomboxes? i wonder if the issue persists across devices.
has anyone gotten this to work with the HOX?

I also have weird experiences about the bluetooth-car connection.
On my desire, when i just get in my car, without doing anything else the phone/car would recognize each other and the music on my desire would start playing in the car instantly.
Now on the HOX, phone part always gets connected, no exceptions, media part gets sometimes connected sometimes not, if it gets connected it sometimes starts playing automatically it sometimes does not, and regardless of it plays automatically or not, i sometimes can use the controls on the steering wheel to skip songs and such, but sometimes i cannot.
Any ideas to what is causing these "sometimes"es?

Im on version 1.28.061.9 and mine doesnt connect at all. When pairing it stays on "pairing" for quite a long time and eventually it pairs but then doesnt connect
Tried a second HOX and its the same with that
Hoping that there will be a future update to fix this
This on the OEM bluetooth on a fiat Panda

Bluetooth in car

I haven't seen anyone post anything about bluetooth issues but I've been having one so annoying, everything was fine until I installed a a2dp app so that whenever I got in my car Pandora started. It started having this issue where about every minute it would disconnect and then 30 seconds later connect again. It will do this over and over and over again. So I un installed the app and still the problem persists, I made the phone forget the car and then sync again but nope. The only way to actually get it to stay connected is when I'm in the car having the issue to restart the phone and then it works until I turn off the car. When this issue is going on I get the bluetooth share has stopped or whatever, I Googled that but the methods I saw didn't work for me. Things like deleting the cache and data for bluetooth share. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Your cars bluetooth probably isn't compatible with the note 3 ... bluetooth isn't as compatible as people think

I've been meaning to start a ***** thread about Bluetooth and the fact that Samsung is still putting out devices with low bitpool settings.
Music sounds terrible through my Bluetooth. I have no idea why.ibalways end up running some kind of cyanogenmod because of how ****ty music sounds over Bluetooth. It's really frustrating...

You are not searching enough as I posted about Bluetooth just about 6 hours ago. If it is any consolation, my music players pauses too somewhat erratically sometimes. I need to press the pause button to get it to play again.

Try flashing the newest saber kernel, I heard it's been helping some with Bluetooth issues, it doesn't help with Pandora avrcp though, Pandora will still crash bluetooth if your Pandora is modded avrcp.

i have an issue with bluetooth and google maps navigation. Seems like the instructions are not always read aloud over the speakers. The music will pause and there will be a silence but no vocal instructions. Sometimes it will pause playing music and I will only vocally get the end of the driving instruction. I'm using power amp for playing music but I noticed it is exactly the same using other players. I confirmed this on 3 att note 3's and 1 tmobile note 3. Any one else?

I have my Note 3 connected to my iO Play and it connects fine. The audio is also good without the problems described from the OP.
I don't use Pandora but I have used YouTube, Play Music, Digitally Imported or internal music and it has never disconnected.
When you disconnected the bluetooth, do you do it on the phone end or your bluetooth end? Try removing the pair on your bluetooth end.

Mine connects fine to my stereo. Music, YouTube, everything. Maybe it's your stereo.

I don't know how to unpair off car, it's a 2013 subaru brz. But it did work fine at one point when I first got it. ........

Music sounds great through BT and my Pioneer stereo.
1 gripe is it doesn't access my phone book. I think Pioneer has a BT SW upgrade for stereo that may help.
I use IheartRadio all the time sounds better than HD Radio IMHO.

Depends on the car. Check your dealer for software update to the Bluetooth in car. Just be prepared to pay for a hour labor charge if ur car is out of warranty.

Hate to say it but it may be the stereo in the car. I'm having the same issues in my BRZ as well. It worked fine for a few days but now it's constantly disconnecting and reconnecting. I have the stock radio still. My S3 worked flawlessly.
Looks like I may have an excuse to spring for that new head unit I was looking at.

Listen mates, Galaxy S4 BT was perfect did all on my car, Note 3 BT does audio only. What gives?

It works if I restart but not always and it's a hassle. We shouldn't have to spend a couple hundred on a unit to fix this though.........

Anybody have bluetooth experience with Ford Sync. I have a 2010 Fusion, my Galaxy Nexus works great with it, but I'm eyeing a Note 3. BT is an important feature for me, so this is critical.

Mine works great in my Toyota Tundra with the factory Jul stereo. I select Bluetooth for audio. It starts playing the last song that was on from the Google Music app. When I have Wade or Google Maps Nav on, it plays that audio over the music. Can also play YouTube or any other audio from the phone through Bluetooth.

I AGREE WITH YOU borrow someone elses phone or flash a different rom and see if results change. it could be the phone acting up

I figured out a little something!!!!
I unpaired the phone right, then when the car asks for map and contacts and all that I put decline or no, whatever it is and now it doesn't disconnect!!!!

BT media player in my car

I'm listening to the internet radio on my Note 3. Used it with the mini 3.5 mm cable first, then found the menu in my car media center to hook it up via BT. Got everything connected seems to work fine the sound quality via BT is much better that via the cable.
HOWEVER BT connection between the phone and radio randomly disconnects for no particular reason (I have it set to connect automatically as soon as the ignition is turned on) and every time it connects it starts playing the Samsung tune or whatever music theme even on the top of the radio music.
What could be causing that?

My touchscreen clarion does it to as far as the disconnects go, and music playing through the default Google player vs my player pro.. As for disconnecting, mine just have a issue connecting off hand but best way is make sure the player in the car is turned on with bt enabled and then turn on the phones bt and press play after the connection is made, shouldn't have any disconnects
As for the playing, if it's the same as what mine used to do, I'd free one of the players and keep the main one you use that way nothing plays but what you want.
Hope that helped any..

Yes this is what I do. As soon as as ignition is on BT connects, and the stupid Samsung tune ("over the horizon" according to my car audio system) starts playing in the car by default. I have to go into phone menu and pause that and then start the radio. And then it starts disconnecting the BT so I have to do all those things again (this time while driving)...

Sounds like something with your cars receiver doing like a auto play type deal once connected. The phone wouldnt have a way of playing automatically without being told to.. id check the receiver and see if it has something about auto and changing it to manual, the only thing that should be auto is the pair

I connect my Note 3 to my Kenwood deck daily. Its a bit different scenario but I have no issues with BT streaming at all. It connects automatically and waits for me to switch to Pandora or BT streaming. When connected it stays connected and doesn't skip. I think the phone can be solid with the right receiving device.
The only issue I do have is that the microphone doesn't work when people call me. Works fine if I call them.

I have had zero issues on 2 different Toyota vehicles using the factory audio system with Bluetooth. Phone and media (music) connects. Music only starts playing when I select BT on my stereo. No issues. Probably something with how your car's system is setup.

BT connection issue
I have a question for you guys, up until recently last week I had been using my stock note 3 with my 2013 kia optima bluetooth radio but last week it started only connecting to the phone audio ive tried pairing and repairing but only the phone audio connects no media audio, ive tried going into the settings and checking the media audio box but it will only flash for a little and not connect any idea on what it may be or how I can fix it? Thanks

Bluetooth problem when streaming in car?

None of you guys have any issues with streaming audio music/pandora/google music on your phone to the car? My problem is getting worst and I cant stand it any longer. The music would skip constantly every few seconds making it unbearable. I checked google and few people has problems with it on androidcentral, im surprised no thread for it on here?

No issues here since device came out. Have a uconnect setup in my car and stream everything from my phones BT to the vehicle's BT. My old device did that often, had an older version of BT though I think? I've yet to have issues, sure maybe 1-2 times every week a song might skip a beat but not at all on the regular. If it's a regular occuranxe it could be a bad connection. I would then delete the profile and link from scratch the vehicle and phone's BT.
Also while listening and if it gets bad. Stop the BT connection, then reconnect. Sometimes a reconnection is better than your previous and skips go away. I just turn BT off on my device, wait a few minutes, then turn it back on and let the 2 connect. Try this and the above, those 2 methods should work if not one or the other.

I get static issues if someone calls me while I am listening to bluetooth audio, and then switch back to music. Usually switching to the radio and then back to bluetooth audio resolves this. Try making sure your settings in pairing options are set to allow data transfer between the device and your car. I initially could not even connect my device until I checked off that option.

I used to have the issue with HTC One M7 and Galaxy S4 in my Renault Medianav, but no such issues with the One M8,.

I can semi- validate this issue. I have three Bluetooth devices. My headset for phone calls will get some static if my M8 is also connected to my HTC Stereoclip, but goes away as soon as I'm out of range of the Stereoclip. Because of this, and the fact my Stereoclip runs on battery and often fails to disconnect after I leave car mode, I tried switching out my Stereoclip for the RocketFish Bluetooth Music Receiver.
Now, I don't get the static, but when streaming music through the RocketFish, it skips every 20-40 seconds. I've swapped out the RocketFish twice and have had the same issue each time.
Based on queries on the Android Revolution HD thread, the developers are saying it's a base issue and needs to be fixed by HTC.
I just find it odd that the Stereoclip will steam media without skipping, but third party hardware like the RocketFish does skip. Also, my headset doesn't get the aforementioned static issues with the RocketFish.
Also worth noting I have not had both the Stereoclip and RocketFish paired to my phone at the same time.

Just wanted to second this. Mine isn't that bad, but every so often (3-5 minutes) the music skips about 0.5 seconds. Have tried stopping my navigation app, putting the phone to sleep, and unplugging the charger. Nothing works so far.
Pretty sure it is not a pairing issue since this started the first time I paired my phone to the car stereo.
Needless to say, not happening when listening with headphones or speakers.
Any insight or updates would be very helpful. Thanks.

Have a cheap'ish Chinese double din headunit (Xtrons).

I have the same problem using a Sony Bluetooth Speaker BTX300.
It's really annoying. It happens with Deezer, Spotify or internal mp3. It does not happen on voice calls.
Maybe it's something related to the Bluetooth bitrate not handled correctly by device ?

Only happens to me in stock radio over bluetooth with the mylink system in the new chevys. No problem with my Kenwood head unit in my Cherokee though

On stock Bell ROM, pre camera/EPSM update, happened every minute in my 2011 Subaru WRX as well as my Motorola Buds. I flashed InsertCoin 2.4.0 and ElementX 0.10 today... no more skipping. Not sure which it was.

I'd had this issue before on my m7 with Pandora. Are you guys using adaway? If so, disable it and try again, it should go away

Hi guys,
Resurrecting this thread. I am having skipping/stuttering issues with my phone when streaming using Spotify over bluetooth A2DP.
I've tested this on 3 different bluetooth devices (Volvo, Belkin and another bluetooth speaker).
The problem is very annoying, once the screen goes off, music would slightly pause every 20-30 seconds.
This happens when using Spotify and TuneIn Radio.. so I'm pretty sure it's not an application problem.
Anyone else having the same problem? I'm running 4.4.3 - 2.07.980.2..
Also, I'm pretty sure this only started happening after the latest update from HTC.

[UPDATE] I've tried doing some tests with turning wifi - OFF and I did not experience any sound/music skips during this morning commute. I will see how this goes in the next few days.

I'm using an app that starts playing music as soon as I connect to my cars Bluetooth. Luckily this app also provides "wifi off on connect"
Gonna give this a try. Really hope this fixes the audio drops. Hate it.

So from one day with Wifi off I can definitely tell it doesn't drop audio on Bluetooth streaming anymore.
So turn your Wifi off to fix the m8 ?

Glad it works for you as well, this has fixed the problem for me most of the time. I use the Trigger app to turn off wifi when bluetooth connects.
On another issue which I don't think is related to the above, on my Volvo at random times, I still have severe stuttering issues to the point that you almost can't tell what music is playing. I've been having this since day 1 with the M8 and not from recent fw upgrade as above. I'm not sure whether this is Spotify or the bluetooth stack tho.
Nevertheless, any of the blueooth issues were something I never experienced with Samsung Galaxy S3, Xperia Z or any other phones. HTC!!, are you listening!?!

rBlink
I have the same problems connecting to my Arcam rBlink at home with my M8. Music dropouts every 20-30 secs. Streaming from my sons M7 is flawlessly.
Stopping Wifi makes it slightly better but is no option since I want to use spotify over wifi.
Could it be a problem with a low bit rate for bluetooth audio?
Arcam gives the advice to increase it for OS X as high as 58.

I am also getting this issue as of late....
I'm using an unrooted Sprint M8 HK phone.
My problem is audio drop out (0.5 sec) constantly. Doesn't make a difference over BlueTooth or the speakers.
It appears that it is related to the phone accessing something during playback which causes the dropout.
It does it when streaming over wif or data... it even does it with audio that I have downloaded to my SD card...
I have uninstalled everything back to when I thought the issues started with no luck.
Anyone with any ideas? I see where some have had this issue and even a hard reset (wipe) didn't solve it.
This doesn't occur on my Verizon M8 which has almost the identical app's installed.

I have an international version M8, bluetooth skips randomly when streaming on car bluetooth and to my sony srs X9 speaker. It seems to happen only with continuos feeds. Mi cousin told me the problem could be that bt device is searching at all times for other devices but since there is no option to stop search i can't be sure.

I am also having problems I have a Scala headset on my crash helmet it doesn't matter if WiFi is on or not when streaming music, It seems to be better with the play music app the car app is annoying because it comes part of htc and I don't know how to disable it without rooting the phone. Has anyone come up with a solution yet? It sounds like an old LP playing with the stylus jumping like a good en.

Bluetooth connection issue

I cannot fully connect Bluetooth so the phone part works with my 2016 Mazda cx9. I can only get the audio. All boxes are checked on the Bluetooth side but the screen on the car says cannot connect with phone. Any other settings I could try or maybe missing?

Getting same thing on my Lexus Gs and my fiat 500

I'm also having a Bluetooth issue with my car, though it's a bit different. It pairs no problem and it will play music through the car speakers but then it randomly starts playing through the phone speakers. I go into Bluetooth on the phone and it says it's still connected to the car but it plays through the phone. It's happened 3 times now. Two times turning Bluetooth off and on again fixed it, the other time I couldn't get it to play through he car speakers again.
The sound has also been very choppy through one of my Bluetooth speakers. I'm hoping this is software related, not something wrong with the hardware.

I have an issue w/ BT in my car as well, but in my case the phone connects but doesn't STAY connected. It pairs just fine to the car (Cadillac SRX), but drops within seconds. When I first paired it, the connection dropped before I could even add the smart lock device. I repeated multiple times, and even turning BT off/on it literally disconnects within 5 seconds. So I can't even make calls in the car. But it connects and stays connected just fine to my Soundfreak BT speaker in the house..

No BT issues to report here. Phone and audio work perfectly in my 2016 Infiniti Q60.

Same here. 2013 Genesis Coupe BT wokring great no issues....

mine says in correct pin, lol but both Pins are the same on the car and phone, idk

Anyone have updates on this or has onePlus acknowledged it? It looks like they have tons of a2dp problems on their forums with the oneplus X and have yet to resolve them, just leaving the people with a phone that doesn't work with tons of different systems, which work with about 99% of other phones.
To update my situation, in my 2014 Lexus it will not display any song information or play music properly.
In my 2016 fiat, it makes the car completely useless as it sends the fiats head unit into a boot loop upon connecting.

It pairs no problem and it will play music through the car speakers but then it randomly starts playing through the phone speakers. I go into Bluetooth on the phone and it says it's still connected to the car but it plays through the phone. It's happened 3 times now. Two times turning Bluetooth off and on again fixed it, the other time I couldn't get it to play through he car speakers again.
The sound has also been very choppy through one of my Bluetooth speakers. I'm hoping this is software related, not something wrong with the hardware.

I'm now having an exciting new problem. If I'm listening to music over Bluetooth and I stop somewhere, to get coffee this morning for example, when I get back in the car it'll start playing back on the car speakers but extremely quietly. I have to turn the car volume up to max to barely hear it. I have to toggle Bluetooth like 5 times or more to get it working again.

I have an issue w/ BT in my car as well, but in my case the phone connects but doesn't STAY connected. It pairs just fine to the car (Cadillac SRX), but drops within seconds. When I first paired it, the connection dropped before I could even add the smart lock device. I repeated multiple times, and even turning BT off/on it literally disconnects within 5 seconds. So I can't even make calls in the car. But it connects and stays connected just fine to my Soundfreak BT speaker in the house..

Have exact same issue with my Escalade

Seems to be a default bug with Oneplus phones and yet my cheap Cubot at a 1/6 of the price of the OP3 connects fine to my car.

2015 Fiat Ducato works well.

Bluetooth connectivity does not drop on my VW Golf VI, however no song information is displayed, it just shows 'Bluetooth Audio'.

I cannot fully connect Bluetooth so the phone part works with my 2016 Mazda cx9. I can only get the audio. All boxes are checked on the Bluetooth side but the screen on the car says cannot connect with phone. Any other settings I could try or maybe missing?

Same sort of problem here with Renault MediaNav. Different is It connects onley to disconnect a few seconds later.
Really driving me mad.

Got problems with my Kenwood car stereo as well. Sometimes, if I'm trying to connect, it just says that the PIN is incorrect (even though I don't enter one). And if I'm lucky enough and it opens the prompt to enter the PIN, it won't do anything after I enter it.
Had a similar problem on my HTC m7 or Nexus 4 (can't remember) with a faulty custom ROM. Changed to another one and it worked again.
But I don't wanna leave stock on my Opo3 yet :S

I have the Renault Kadjar and using the stock rom i can only use the music side of the bluetooth. I spoke with Oneplus and they tried to help but they did not know what is wrong. I ended up rooting the phone and using a Custom Rom, at the moment i am using resurrection rom and i have no problems with the bluetooth.

Just tried it with my other car which has a pioneer radio. No problems with that one.
Still a no go on with the MediaNav
