Bluetooth behaving funny on MM stock - Verizon HTC One (M9)

Is anyone else noticing funny Bluetooth behavior post update (stock phone)? Specifically, my phone is occasionally disconnecting and then a minute later reconnecting to my speakerphone unit in my car. (Jabra)
I'm in the car at the time to be clear. I don't know if being on a call matters. It hasn't happened during a call yet, but I'm not on the phone much.

Try deleting and re-pairing the BT.

Well, I thought that would be the end of this issue, but after a few days it came back.

Jabra firmware updatable?

That's a thought, I'll check. It's happening in my Jambox as well and the only change is the phone.

Mines done this in my civc since I got it a yr ago

The only issue I've had predates the marshmallow update, and that's Google Maps directions causing the Bluetooth to disconnect from my car. It's quite annoying when I'm driving for directions and the sound suddenly switches to my phone speakers

I think I may have narrowed it down to the Tile app which has an automatic BT restart option if it has trouble locating your device. I turned it off and I think the problem is gone.

Galaxy s3 not finding car Bluetooth

I just got my gs3 from Rogers, and the phone works great but for some reason it does not find/detect my car's inbuilt Bluetooth system. My gs2 worked with no issues but my gs3 does not find the device when scanning . The Bluetooth worked when connecting to friends iPhone but not with my car. Anyone know what might be the cause?
My car is a 2011 BMW X6.

I have this problem too, ford focus with sync. It will detect it when I first pair the devices, but then it won't connect again after the connection has been disconnected. I have to forget the bluetooth connection and re-pair the phone with my car bluetooth to get it to work. Mine too is the Rogers version of the S3.

I have the same problem supposed to search for cars bluetooth but gs3 wont find it at all I really hope theres a fix for this bc i love this phone but this is a deal breaker
found the solution! phones blue tooth needs to be turned on before starting the car. finds and pairs no problem. if I start the car first and then start the phone it doesnt work.
start the phones Bluetooth before starting the car. let me know if it works for you!!

I can pair the phone once this way, but afterwards it will never connect again. Have to forget the connection and start again.

Try turning off your bluetooth and then turning it back on before you start the car.
Mine had the same issue (JVC stereo, Telus SGS3) until I hit the "initialize" option in the stereo. After re-pairing the phone it's worked great for 4 days.

I noticed that my Bluetooth issues went away with the latest AT&T OTA update from last week. I understand yours was on Rogers, but assuming you'll eventually (if you don't already) have access to the same update.
Bluettoth Issue on all stock TW based ROMs
What I have noticed is that I have had this issue on all Sammy based ROMS. Had no issues on the AOKP ROMS. On the Sammy ICS ROms the phone pairs but keeps switching between call audio and media audio in bluetooth. It sticks at call audio once you manually chose call audio and disconnect media audio in Bluetooth once it has paired.
I agree with you. I issues have gone after LG1 OTA update. Thanks

Bluetooth Music Random Reboot

Okay, here is the deal:
No matter what TOUCH WIZ ROM I run, about 20-25 minutes into listening to music over BLUETOOTH in my car, my phone will randomly reboot, after it boot, it will not be connected to BT automatically, I have to manually connect it.
This DOES NOT happen on ANY AOSP ROM. My fiancee has a stock UNROOTED E4GT and it DOES NOT happen to her either.
Anyone have a clue what I can do?
Thanx,
Tee Jay

(Solved) Playtronics voyager legend keeping phone awake!

Has anyone else had any problems with a bluetooth headset keeping their phone awake? I've narrowed it down and it's for sure my headset, but I cannot find a way to correct the problem. CPU spy says it's running 200 mhz constantly and not deep sleeping. I'm just trying to find out if other headsets do this or is my particular headset causing issues. For the life of me I can't figure out why the headset would keep it from deep sleeping. Any insight would be appreciated.

I got Plantronic HD Pro for 6 months without that issue . You can turn off Bluetooth & put on airplane mode for a day to check and when your phone connect to charger , phone will run at 200 all time

I'll try that tonight. The strange thing is the headset is killing my battery fast. Without using the phone, I'll drop 5-6% an hour.

Try to flash the update the headset from Plantronics website. While flashing the update disable the smart sensors. Then flash the update again and enable the smart sensors. See if that does it. I know it helped with my Plantronics Voyager PRO HD. If that doesn't do it then try you Galaxy Note w/o the bluetooth headset for a few days to see if this problem is really coming from the headset or from something else.

For anyone else that may have this problem with the phone not sleeping with a BT headset, I narrowed it down to the bluetooth share app. If I force close it when I connect my headset, it clears up the problem and the phone sleeps properly. Just an FYI

Is this the Plantronics own app? What name is the app? I know of MyHeadset app from Plantronics. Is that the app?

No, it's a built in app on the phone. Go to settings/application manager/slide over to all apps, and scroll down to "bluetooth share". Force close it and the phone will sleep like it's supposed to. For some reason the app keeps the phone awake while the headset is connected. Force closing it does not cause any issues and fixes the wake lock issue.

Skype and Nexus 4

Hey guys, so I was wondering who else is having problems with Skype on their N4. I know I am because when I use Skype, after about 4-5 minutes into a conversation, my side gets cut off, the conversation becomes choppy, and my friends always complain why they cannot hear me. Our simple fix so far is just reestablishing the call, but that gets annoying (especially since we are usually on a game and chatting). Anyone else suffering problems with Skype?
Kind of a stupid question, but is it hardware failure (like my mic just randomly gives out on Skype) or is it just the app itself?

Try Google Hangout. If you still have the problem, it's likely a system issue. In all likelihood it's a Skype issue. Maybe un install and reinstall?
No issues with Skype here except for high battery usage.
I use Skype for about an hour every day it consumes about 30-40% of the battery.

I have tried that, but still does not work for me. Still get that problem. I am already starting to think it could be a hardware issue because of the person who posted below (Who I am quoting also).

Weird. Are you still using stock ROM or a custom ROM? If a custom ROM, which one? I am currently running on Android 4.2.1 (Stock ROM). I am even attempting to reflash the stock ROM to see if it would be resolved.
I use MoDaCo custom rom and no issues with Skype, both in 3G and Wi-Fi

I think your earpiece is broken, you should do RMA.

Sorry, this is a stupid question, but what's RMA?
Also, I'm sure it's not an earpiece defect because it's the mic that acts up while I use Skype. Whenever I talk with them, I'm always using headphones. So I think I should be more worried about the mic.

I'm not going to lie, I had this issue as well on 2 calls with Skype in the past week, but I thought it was an issue with my Internet connection. Now I'm wondering what's going on exactly. Is there any way to test something like this? A faulty mic? How would one go about testing that if it's not a consistent sort of thing?

The same cut off probleme for me.
I use the CM10 nightly.
i ll try the stock to see.
I'm on stock ROM and have no trouble with Skype. I've used it for about 30 minutes on video calling, but it wore my battery down as well as used a lot of data. No doubt, the video and sound quality were both excellent.
Using CM10.1 made video call yesterday okay.

Yep this happened to me a few times before. Im guessing its the app ..
when the skype voice call goes into someone's voice mail nexus hangs
Hi everyone, I have a strange problem with skype on my nexus4; I have a nexus 4 running the stock 4.2.1 running and everytime i call someone if they pick up the phone everything's okay, but if they don't pick the phone and it goes to voice mail, my nexus 4 hangs and it does not become responsive unless i power the phone off and back on, and all this while the voice mail keeps going on. Similarly if the other party does not hang the phone the call just stays on and phone hangs again, i know this is a really weird one, please do let me know if anyone has seen this or something similar before.
I am stock 4.2.2 (no root) and have only used it once (short audio call). Worked OK except bluetooth is broken with old headset (phone audio profile), which works great on Nexus S using Skype and Nexus 4 with the native SIP client.
Skype has been a hit and miss with the various versions over the past few years and much more unstable since Microsoft got their hands on it.

Stock S3 BT issues only with PIONEER headunit...

As the title says, I am having issues getting connection. I have unpaired it, started completely over and still the only way I can Get it to play is physically going into Bluetooth and then click media to check mark. Sometimes have to do this 3-4 times before it clicks on.
I just started having these issues with it. Not sure if it is my deck or phone. It used to auto connect and play flawlessly for months. It still auto connects fine with phone calls, just the media portion is messing up.
Anyone else have any issues like this?
Deck is a Pioneer 9400HDBT.
Any help would be much appreciated.

I have the same issue at times on my pioneer head unit...some ROMs work better then others ...running xperiaZ from jovy and I get connected pretty consitently . I have a feeling its the head unit more then the ROMs though...there's times where my phone says I'm paired but the head unit still flashing the Bluetooth icon. Think I have the 3400bh but I'm not in my car ATM to verify
Edit: 3400 ..phone connects fast for the most part but music tends to be iffy. Dont think its rom related at all.

I used to work at sprint and the s3 has blue tooth known issues. I assume it would be the same being the blue tooth hardware is essentially the same. I always told people to root their phones and load a custom stable rom and it fixes the problem of those few that did. Sorry I couldn't help much
