Hi All,
Just getting to grips with my KLD HU. I've upgraded to the latest MCU (2.83) and Malaysks FUSE ROM.
I find that if I am on the phone when I turn on the HU the bluetooth connects during the boot sequence but the sound output isn't turned on until android has started up. I thought that if I could turn off the BT when the HU powers down and turn it back on once android had booted then I wouldn't have this problem. However I don't know if this would work since its an external BT device.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
Andy

Curious if anyone would have any insight...
I hadn't used bluetooth too much, but I occasionally used it with my Pioneer car stereo. I know that CM10.1 had some issues with bluetooth, so I figured that was the reason it worked intermittently. I purchased a different car stereo, and couldn't get my Epic to pair with it. Basically it would see the car stereo, start to pair, let me enter the passkey, then bluetooth would turn off, then back on and it will keep doing this. So...I wiped everything and installed CM11, which I thought (and heard) would have much better bluetooth. But I'm having the same exact problem. At first it was saying that my passkey was wrong as it would turn off, or I might get a bluetooth process force closing, but it always ends up turning bluetooth off, then back on again as it tries to pair. I also tried pairing it with a bluetooth HMDX speaker, and the same exact thing happens. Just wondering if anyone might have a few tips on what to check out instead of going back to stock.

I too have been having a very similar problem with with my plantronics headset, and Panasonic Bluetooth cordless phone. My Nexus 4 will continue to disconnect and reconnect, have tried to pairing the devices again with no luck. tried a few nightlies of late with no luck yet.

I have a 2014 Mazda CX-5 and a Samsung S3 and I'm having the same issue.
The odds part is that I have no problem connecting and staying connected to my pebble smart watch.
Ok, so here's the deal. I have a rooted T-mo G3 (D851) on a stock rom, out of the box it's been awesome to use with my Pioneer AVH-X2600BT head unit in my scooby. I was messing around with themes a short while ago and then the bluetooth stopped working intermittently. From what I can tell the mix-rate of the A2DP stream changes from 44k to 3hz and all you hear are beeps at multiple amplitudes. The beeps are playing out of the buffer in the head unit until it empties then it resets the connection to the phone. It still plays out these beeps until it's empty even if I disconnect the phone from the head unit.
I don't have this problem with two other iPhones. And previous to my screwing around, it'd work flawlessly since a bought it (launch day.)
Could I have screwed up a mixrate setting someplace? I do have a custom mixer xml for boosting headphone port and speaker audio but I never touched the settings for the bluetooth driver.
This behavior is intermittent and it matters very little what content I'm playing through it. I do notice that when this is happening, no metadata or control is capable through AVRCP either. (i.e. Pandora app can't connect to the phone, no album art, etc)
Sometimes it'll stop doing it and play normally for the rest of the session (drive) after a few minutes and everything is normal. Sometimes it doesn't do it at all and sometimes I can't get it work normally at all.
Here's a video showing the behavior:

Reset your Bluetooth on your headunit and pair it again with all your bluetooth devices.
I had a similar problem with my LG G3 and my Pioneer AVH-8500 where my Pioneer will not recognize my LG G3 anymore but recognizes my Note 3.
I fixed the problem by resetting my Bluetooth on my Pioneer and had to pair all my devices back to it again.
You will have to look into your Pioneer manual on how to reset your bluetooth.
Edit: I just remembered something.
Did you happen to update or change your firmware.
Some KitKat firmwares are missing the Bluetooth Metadata and will not function properly.
Use autoaudio download it from playstore. This fixes my problem on metadata
Hey thanks guys.
I reflashed the bt radio in my head unit and the problem so far has seemed to go away. Metadata and everything works again.
I appreciate the heads up from another pioneer user.

How exactly did you reflash the bt radio? I have the same head unit and am having problems with it dropping the bt connection to my G3
I just got forced to upgrade my LG G3 to Android 5.0 and it completely screwed up my Bluetooth audio connection in my car.
Bluetooth sync to home audio playback is fine, but BTooth audio is completely corrupted with the Pioneer AVH-X2600BT.
I cant find the instructions on how to reflash my stereo firmware to reset bluetooth settings. I cleared my bluetooth devices in the stereo setup, but to no avail. Can you point me to instructions on a reflash?
I am having the same issue. I have 2 other bluetooth devices that my G3 will connect to and playback is fine for as long as I have battery life. But when connected to my Pioneer AVH-x2600bt, I get constant skipping after 2 minutes of playback. I can pause it for a couple of minutes and when I start playing again it's fine for another 2 minutes. I have done a hard reset on the Pioneer and reconnected my G3 but no change. I have unpaired and cleared all of the bluetooth data in my phone and reconnected, no change. All of the Kit Kat OS devices I have still work fine with the Pioneer but none of the Lollipop devices work. I emailed Pioneer, their reply was for me to take my deck to a service center. That will do no good. One of two things needs to happen, Google needs to update their bluetooth firmware or Pioneer needs to update the firmware for the AVH-x2600bt. Until one of those two things happen I guess I'll be using stone age technology, an auxiliary cable.
Thank you, that is all.
Hello
I can't sent the music to my car radio according to the version of Android. In version 5.0 with different kernel that doesn't work, and with 5.1.1 (blisspop) it works. I 'm preferred the custom rom because I like some features. Someone have a solution or an explanation of why?
Hi all, new guy here with some problems.
I've bought a new headunit to replace my factory Skoda Stream Radio CD.
My car is an Skoda Octavia mk2 vRS year 2007, so any VW headunit should be OK in my car.
New headunit is a Joying Android 4.4.4 RK3188 with latest official firmware (June 2015).
I was trying to install it this morning for the first time and found several problems.
The most important one is the headunit doesn't power off even with my car completely shutdown and closed.
Headunit install instructions state there are two different methods to connect the headunit.
First and preferred one is using CANBUS decoder box, so headunit power is controlled through CANBUS decoder.
But if headunit doesn't power on when you turn on the car (that's happening to mine), you have to use second method: unplug CANBUS decoder box and connect ACC +12V red wires so that headunit gets powered.
With this second method the headunit starts up OK, but when i turn off the engine, take out the key or even close the car with remote control, headunit doesn't power off at all. I even tried to wait for 20 minutes but with no results. So i had to remove new headunit from the car to avoid battery drain...
I have upgraded firmware from Abril to June version so i got a new feature that allows to delay shutdown after ACC is off.
I set it to 30 seconds delay but still nothing. Headunit stays on.
I already asked to seller, and i'm waiting for an answer. But i thought maybe i could get some valuable ideas here at the forum.
Still don't understand why headunit is not powering on with CANBUS decoder connected. My car should support it, my factory Skoda Stream Radio CD is able to show climatronic info on display.
Other problems i found:
- Headunit buttons don't light even if i turn on car headlights. If i set button's colour in Settings\Elements buttons light for a pair of seconds to show new color, but then they go off again.
- I wanted to set Skoda logo at boot at Factory Settings but asks for a pin/password. Thought it was 126 but it isn't. What is the pin for Factory Settings?
- There's a slight buzzing coming from speakers when i turn on car headlights. That buzzing is not there with Skoda factory radio unit.
Long post, thanks in advance for your answers. :good:
Seems to me wrong or defected harness?
Does your car have factory amplifier? I had one that was making lot of issues. I figured out that the harness was the problem because they sent me a harness that is compatible with my factory head unit. But my car was standard trim that didnt include it. I had to cut one wire they told me to cut it. And it worked fine after that.

Thanks for your answer Scorbion,
Seller is going to send me a new Canbus box decoder. We think it must be faulty, that's why headunit doesn't power on or power off with it. Without Canbus box, ACC coming from VW harness is not a real ACC but a +12V to battery, because VW factory radio does all through canbus, and so headunit is always connected and doesn't power off.
Will update info when i get the new canbus box from seller.
Thanks

i have the same problem. can u fix it?
Did you solve this canbus problem?
Yes, new can bus decoder did the trick.
Long time ago though...
Hardware solution trumps everything
Had the same issue. Im also waiting for the supplier to respond. In the meantime, I just pulled the acc pin off the box and connected the radio to cig. lighter possitive. Works.
Hi everyone,
This might seem like a silly question, but I have had a PX3 headunit for some time now and have noticed that when I turn the unit off (with the car still running) and turn it back on, the radio app continues to play as I think it should. When I turn my car off entirely on the other hand, the radio app does not boot back up as it did with the car running. Just wondering if this is normal or if I have set up the unit incorrectly? Currently running the Malaysk rom. Thanks.
Hi. I have an old Xtrons headunit, I believe it is MTCD PX5 still running android 6.
When I try to connect an android phone to the bluetooth of the headunit, it only works 50% of the time. The other times I need to restart my car for it to pair. What's interesting is that this problem only occurs when trying to pair an android phone. An iPhone pairs perfectly 100% of the time.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do to fix this? I've had this problem for a long time now lol.
Thank you,
