Moto 360 Bluetooth headphones constantly skipping - Moto 360

I've tried syncing 2 different types of BT headphones and am constantly getting skipping on the music playback. Like a cd skipping. I added the music to my Moto 360 but can't use it to play music on my runs which totally defeats the purpose. The first set of headphones were BTS and the second set Kinivo 240s. Anyone have the same issue? I also tried putting the watch in airplane mode and then turning on the Bluetooth.

I am using Jaybird Bluebuds X, never had an issue, music never skips. But playing BT Music from watch causes my watch to shut down randomly, sometimes around 50%, sometimes around 75%

Streaming bluetooth audio while moto 360 synced question

Hello,
Just wonder if I am alone on this one. I noticed today that when I stream music on my note3 to my car while being connected to the moto that the must quality dropped. I use Google play all access paid feature. This has never happened before when I didn't have the watch synced.
Has anyone else heard of this? I am going to try to use spotify tonight and see if it was a Google server issues or my signal.
Thank you
Custom rom?
It's possible the music streaming is maxing out the bluetooth and the watch updating itself is just too much, but for a Note 3 it should be no sweat...
I havent noticed any problem like that... you sure your audio quality from the play music itself isnt lower?
same here, no problem..same situation, same quality
Does anyone know how to NOT have Google music on the watch? I took it away from notification on the wear app but it still happens. I don't want to see what is playing or skip to next track on the watch.. For this reason and i'm sure its killing battery lift if I go on a long trip if it updates after each song.
I haven't noticed any problems. Nexus 5, All Access, with my BT speaker and in my Mazda, it works same as before I had the watch.

I notice the audio from my car cuts out or stutters. This is when I have my watch connected to my phone too. I never had this issue prior to the watch.
I'm using a LG G2 running Optimus 1.3.2 rom
On the latest PA Beta 2 Rom on my Nexus 5 and no issues connecting to my HTC Stereo clip. Used with spotify, poweramp, n7 player and other players as well.
I'm having an issue with audio dropping out and being interfered with too. Oneplus One, Moto 360, Audi Bluetooth audio. Very frustrating. Sometimes I can hear the quality level of the music change when it drops out, almost like it's trying different bitrates or codecs to fix the issue.
Least I am not the only one, but mine never actually drops. But I can just tell the quality go down. Like going from 256kb to 128kb..This is even music that loaded on my phone, Not spotify or Pandora.
Are you using ART or Dalvik runtime? This was happening to me after switching to Dalvik. Switching back to Dalvik solved it.
I noticed the audio quality drop as well on my HTC One m7, stock rooted. I first noticed it dropped slightly after getting a bluetooth obd reader but it wasn't enough to really worry about. Then, after getting my moto 360, the quality dropped even more to the point I had to stop using bluetooth for streaming music and use an auxiliary cable instead. So, it seems it's just using up too much of whatever bluetooth bandwidth is available so the audio quality drops in order to compensate.
I have this problem to, using a LG G3 with ART, I have to disconnect the moto 360 from the phone to have a good audio.
No problems here with my Note 3 connected to my M360 and Ford Sync.
This is a question I keep checking on too. Seems like the common factor for people not having issues drive a Ford, using Ford Sync.

I've switched roms on my Lg G2. Im currently running Liquid Smooth (with ART enableD) and have not had any issues. I am streaming from my Google Music and bluetooth is connected to watch and my car. Cutting out and stutters are gone.
So may be ROM specific?
Small update; connected to a a Pioneer AVH- 200BT and the watch with no issues.
I'm having the same problem. My Moto 360 is constantly connected to my stock Moto x (original). When I stream audio over bluetooth from my phone to my car radio, the phone and radio randomly lose their connection to each other. Sometimes they appear to be paired and my phone says that it's playing, but no audio is coming out of the radio, so I have to cycle the phone's bluetooth off & on again to get audio working again.
Edit: I just found a thread on Motorola's official forum for the 360. Matt, the forums manager, thinks that the bluetooth capacity of the phone is being overloaded.
No issues with my note 2 connected to watch and my Hyundai car audio

After some more testing I still have the same issue, Works perfect with watch disconnected. There isn't some kind of widget or toggle that can discount/reconnect only the watch is there? without going to the wear app.
But I did find this, it has something with the music controls on the watch. I was uninstalling Spotify and reinstalling it. Before the watch was synced knowing I have the spotify app, I was able to use the app and play perfect audio. Of course this doesn't last long before the watch kicks in. After doing more re-search we CANT disable the controls on the watch no matter what. Least with the current version we are on, Hopefully that will change.

[Q] Pairs, but no sound in BT headphones

My Sony Smartwatch 3 pairs with bluetooth devices without problems. I've got a Sony Ericsson BT headset (MW600) that it connects to. When I play songs from google Play Music the title of the song appears in the display on the headphones, and everything looks alright. Nothing is muted. But there is no sound, at all. Just silence. The song is playing (says both the watch and the headset) and the volume is cranked up. But nothing. I've tried pairing the watch with my Bose bluetooth speaker, and the same thing happens... Any ideas?
Happens to me sometimes. Usually rebooting the watch fixes it.

.. When it happens on mine I pause and then resume and it starts working
I am having the same issue. I can connect no problem but I just can't hear anything. I have tried rebooting the watch and when I select google play it asks me if I want to play it on the phone or the device, I select device and click play but nothing happens. I have also tried to pause then play again and still no luck. Does anyone have any other suggestions? TIA
Fix for Sony Smart watch 3 not playing music a cross bluetooth
Hi. I had the exact same problem. I finally sorted it out, even went jogging without my phone and had music playing over my bluetooth headsets.
Your needing to convert the songs to .mp3 and re upload and sync the songs. You'll most likely need to remove all songs of the watch and then re select the songs you want on, making sure those are the converted .mp3 songs.

Music From Watch = Skip Like a Mofo?

Sup guys,
Just hopped onto the smartwatch bandwagon. Loving it so far. Only issue I've had is with listening to music directly from the watch. This was one of the big selling points for me. I'm a workout fanatic and wanted to use it on my runs and in the gym. Anyways, when I'm on my runs I notice the music skips like crazy. Almost as if it were a scratched CD or on a poor internet connection.
Any ideas what might be causing it? I've tried two different sets of bluetooth headphones. It seems to skip the most when I'm actually running, as opposed to walking or standing still. I'm going to try telling the phone to not turn off "tilt to wake" to see if that's the issue. Will also try out a 3rd pair of headphones next. Other than that though, not sure what else I can try? Maybe ambient screen? Any thoughts? Has anyone experienced this? Could I have a defective 360?
By the way, this is with JUST my watch and headphones. The phone isn't in the equation (I've read if the watch is connected to more than one device, ie headphones and phone, skipping occurs on music).
Thanks in advance for any thoughts/ideas,
Gods
Think I figured it out! I think the skips are when the watch tries to check if the phone is in range to connect with. Looks like putting the watch in airplane mode and activating bluetooth afterwards will allow for the watch to pair with the headphones and play music without the constant skipping. I haven't done a large test yet, just ran around the yard for 5 minutes. I'll test it in greater depth tomorrow.

Any success? I'm on my second set of BT headphones and still getting a lot of skipping.
I am using Jaybird Bluebuds X, never had an issue, music never skips. But playing BT Music from watch causes my watch to shut down randomly, sometimes around 50%, sometimes around 75%
Is it heat related? Maybe can monitor the temperature of the watch somehow.
Is there any app other than google play music that can play songs stored in the watch?

Popping sounds in headphones after podcast or other background audio stops in standby

So, i recently started listening to podcasts when going to sleep or when i wake up at night. I finally have a 5X with a good display since a week and i recognized this problem because it always wakes me up.
I still couldn't figure out what causes this bug(?), maybe some of you could test it as well:
I use Podcast Addict, but i tested a few other apps as well, the problem occurs there too.
I listen to the podcast and, with screen off, when the podcast stops because it's finished or the sleep timer stops it, a regularly popping sound comes out of the headphones until i activate the screen.
Sometimes it doesn't happen when i unplug and plug the headphones in again, i use some cheap 3-conductor sony in-ears.
I found additional 3-conductor earbuds in a drawer, same problem.
It seems that it doesn't occur with the 4-conductor iPhone earbuds/headset of my wife. That also seems to be the case with another 4-conductor In-ear headset i found.
I'm on the march build MHC19J and can't tell if the problem only occurs in this build.

Chromecast Audio with Pandora Sleep Timer

I am using Pandora on my Pixel XL phone to play music via Chromecast Audio. I also use the Pandora app sleep timer.
This setup works as intended for the prescribed time (1 hr) after which playout stops, but then 1-2 hours later music starts playing again, but from my phone's speaker. This is apparently when the Chromecast Audio connection drops due to inactivity.
Has anyone experienced this problem or have a recommended solution? Is the Chromecast Audio timeout settable?
yes, and a lot of people do. it happens to every app that casts to chromecast. its an android/chromecast issue. and still not solved in 2021.
