Help with BT headset problems on cm12.1 (SM-T700) - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys.
The thing is I used to run the latest CM12.1 on my SM-T700 a few weeks ago with no problems at all, it was smooth, until the other day I decided to buy me a pair of Bluetooth Wireless Stereo Headset from radioshack. The pairing was successful; the problems started when playing audio from any source (Spotify, YouTube, Netflix, etc) the audio was lagging really bad, like stuttering, coming with "sound holes" in between, and it was really annoying.
I realized the problem wasn't coming from the Bluetooth Headset, 'cause it works perfectly with other devices running CM13. (LG Optimus L90 for instance)
I tried a few things before running to you guys for help:
-Turned off experimental NuPlayer by default (didn't work)
-Clean Flashed CM12.1 like 5 times (didn't work)
-I even tried a few other ROMS based on CM, the problem was still there.
-So I went back to IronROM 5.0.2 and the problem is gone. :good:
Of course I want to go back to CM12.1, IronROM is awesome but CM is the thing nowadays, so if any of you has an idea of what is the origin of the problem and can guide me through the solution, I'd be thankful for life.
Have a good day!

It's a known bug in CM12.1

Bluetooth Car Audio Stutter

Experiencing extreme audio stuttering when connected to car audio via Bluetooth. This issue has been pervasive across every ROM I've used. The audio stutters heavily every 5-10 seconds no matter if I'm streaming or playing from local files. I'm using a 2015 Pioneer AVH-5700bhs. Other phones connect to this unit and play perfectly. This problem also exists when playing from my Bose Bluetooth speaker, though the stutter is not nearly as severe as in the car.
Tried different kernel governors and different kernels. Same result.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? I would truly appreciate any feedback or fixes. Thank you for your time.

I'm almost sure all 5.0 roms have difficulty with Bluetooth. At least that's what I have gathered from lurking various lollipop threads. Try the thread from the ROM you are using. Good luck!
Every single lollipop rom i've used has the issue. it's a bug in cm12 and won't be fixed until the official 5.0 build is out from tmobs. from there, it may take awhile to be fixed in cm12. i have problems with stuttering, as well as connecting at times in my car. i've been using my aux cord and soundabout to deal with it until it's fixed.

[Q] Bluetooth problem with all nonTouchWiz CustomROMs

Hello together.
I have a Bluetooth problem with all nonTouchWiz CustomROMs like CM10, CM11, CM12, Omni, Resurrection, TeamUB etc. I have searched many forums with Google but found no solution - only more problems.
Here's my first problem:
I use the app "Blitzer.de" where I set the audio Output to "Bluetooth HPF". In a test, my hands-free carkit responds, but no sound is coming. (That works fine on TouchWiz Roms like DN4, DN3, DrKeaten, Mr_Lounge, Phantom etc.)
Here's my second problem:
The first call works fine. But only a krrrrrrriiiiiii be heard at one of the following calls. This problem occurs very irregularly.
(That works also fine on TouchWiz Roms like DN4, DN3, DrKeaten, Mr_Lounge, Phantom etc.)
Is ist possible to install the stock bluetooth driver? And how can I install?
Or is there another solution?
Thank you for your help ever.

Bluetooth Issues

Since i update to CM13 in the Tap Pro 8.4 i habe a Bluetooth issue. I can conect to my soundbar but the audio stutters. I can not listen to music any more. It worked on cm12...
CM13 is not stable yet, it was just released a few weeks ago, personally I have tested bluetooth (audio, gamecontroller) and it works ok with my equipment, but I have noticed they have verbose logging on for BT (logcat goes on forever) so that could be whats causing your issue, I suggest waiting until the first stable build comes out or revert to 12.1 in the meantime.
also try disabling 2.4ghz wifi.
sad but...
I go back to 12.1 the bluetooth issue seems to be a cm13 problem.
Hi folks....
I have a Tab Pro 8.4 with CM13 on it.
I was trying to pair a small bluetooth speaker to this tablet and had no luck.....the speaker pairs fine with my phone.
Any suggestions of a solution?
Thanks for your assistance

BLUETOOTH issues CM12, CM13 and other ROMs N7100

hi. I have done so many tests so far so I know what I'm saying.
most used ROMs for N7100 are heavly unstable with bluetooth.
effects are various, from stuttering in a2dp with BT headset to bad reconnecting to low power devices (example smartbands) etc.
again, to connect to some special device I need to reboot many times, for example some kind of internet things.
at the moment the ONLY rom, beside stock, that has a PERFECT manage of bluetooth is:
[OK] ---- [ROM][5.1.1][Haxynox] AOSP for n7100
and roms I tested that has not:
[NOT] ---- [ROM][5.1.1] 12.11.2015 Cyanogenmod 12.1 N7100
[NOT] ---- [ROM][6.0.1] Cyanogenmod 13.0 N7100 Build 8
[NOT] ---- Paranoid Android for Note II(GT-N7100)
[NOT] ---- [ROM][5.1.1_r24][Official][Nightlies]Exodus Android for Samsung note II
[NOT] ---- [ROM][5.1.1][Lollipop][Official][Nightlies] NamelessROM 2.1
[NOT] ---- [ROM] CyanoBiz - CM-13.0 - Doze enable - n7100 / Galaxy Notes2
[continue]
how to test:
there are many methods to test bad handling of bluetooth, most important test with daily use, but to prevent headache you can do in this way.
- pair any bluetooth headset or car free-hand kit.
- play some music to that device
- meantime go to bluetooth option and search for new devices
- if music stutters that rom is affected with bt issues, if not rom will never hurt you and your devices.
so: why I don't stay with Haxynox?
I would but that rom is
a little unstable.
vivavoice volume doesn't work.
bt file transfer crashes.
sometime reboots.
doesn't handle >16GB sd card.
doesn't handle movetosd.
developer is working on CM13 and left this.
please feedback here to have stable bluetooth back!

On RR Lollipop I've had bt stuttering
on dr.ketan kitkat bt was very good
on CM 13 build 7 bt works just fine: tested on mazda infotainment, bt jack adapter, JBL speaker, laptop, pairing with other phone also ok and recently with SmartWatch 3, so I think it's related to hardware if you can't get it to work
thank you for reply. sorry but I don't think is hardware related.
I read tons of thread where n7100 owners wait for a build with decent bluetooth manager. most are still searching for. I was lucky as I found at least haynox build.
so I decided to share this.
did you test playing music through bt speakers and while listen music going to 'searching for bt device' screen?

no, I think when it's paired with device and sound plays well, so there is no need to go there, but I#ll check it this evening

thank you. this may be useful for me.
tested:
[ROM][5.1.1_r24][Official][Nightlies]Exodus Android for Samsung note II
[ROM][5.1.1][Lollipop][Official][Nightlies] NamelessROM 2.1
both have bt issues
yep, I had to go back to stock.. my sony smartwatch 3 was unusable.... I don't like to put my money on trash...
[ROM][5.1.1] 12.11.2015 Cyanogenmod 12.1 N7100
[ROM][6.0.1] Cyanogenmod 13.0 N7100 Build 8
Have problems with bluetooth calls (Static, robot voice), Music player is fine
As I added more bt devices it started to stutter rarely. I noticed that it only stutters when bt is searching, although it's connected.
CM13 build 7.
I believe it's related to data flow, it just can't send/receive that much data simultaneously
ok, after tried so many roms I can say that if you have that stutter bluetooth is less stabile than ideal. can be that you have devices where is less evident. but it's not the way to be:
if you can nandroid backup your note2 and try haynox build. you'll nave stable BT and in test never stutters. in fact there's no way to make it stutter with this ROM. but as said there are other issues..
less than ideal.
[ROM] CyanoBiz - CM-13.0 - Doze enable - n7100 / Galaxy Notes2
my hope for BT was fix by P.A.N. from i9305 github, but NO, it doesn't work well.
waiting for AOSP from same developer
Any news about this?
CM Roms were always weak about bluetooth stream. I have a 6p now and it's happening. On Pure Nexus I'm fine but would love to stay CM
after many devices and settings I came into conclusion, that bluetooth problem is related to android wear app. When I had paired SW3 and allowed Note2 to constantly search for my watch it stutters often, but after uninstalling all that crap, Note don't search for other devices when connected to 1 device and sound doesn't stutter, not even once.
I'm using CM13 build 10
Umm I posted some stuff in Ivan's build 10 rom thread. If you switch network to 2G instead of 3G, bluetooth calling works once again. I tested this about 20 times afterwards and it worked everytime. It even works with traffalguar square's rom.
Hope it helps.
[ROM][6.0.1][v6.18][Beanstalk][OFFICIAL][Great Experience][DU-Features][19.06.16]
This rom have bt issue too.
Still no solution ?
I found a good ROM
I've been struggling with BT Handsfree issue for a very long time. I almost bought a new phone recently, because of this issue. I drive a lot and I really need that function. Samsung original stock rom is so bloated and ugly that it was not an option. Unfortunately non of the CM and AOSP ROMS have fully working BT audio.
I found a solution: [ROM][GT-N7100][TW 4.4.4] Eclipse By AC version 9
It is a stock based ROM with TouchWiz UI. I don't like Samsung interface but this one is really debloated and very pleasant. I think I will get used to it. It's super stable and very fast. I moved to it a few days ago, and my Plantronics M70 headset is finally working like a charm. Just remember to make a full phone wipe before install (including data partition). I had some issues with that.

Bluetooth audio

I tested a lot of ROMs, recently I was testing POSP, but it had some problems and after all I came back to Android One, mainly because it offers the best battery for this device. As we all know Android One comes with some bugs, more or less annoying. I got rid of most of them, but bluetooth audio is still broken and I wonder is there any way to fix it? It works just fine after pairing, but connecting second time means you won't have any sound
