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).
M8 connects fine to phone and music with no issues with calls or music

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.
Hey,

Everytime I plugged them in, the G3 recognize them as headset... This will make my phone go crazy, it skips tracks, stop them and so on, because my headphones haven´t has buttons...
Everyone else with this problem? Can I disable Headsets so that my phone recognize headsets also as headphones?
Pleas help me :fingers-crossed:
PS. Sorry for my ****ty english :highfive:
My music stops randomly. Thats my only problem with the headphone/headset thing. But ye its annoying and there is alot with the same problem.
That's Bull****, sometimes it works other times it recognized the headphones as headset -.- it must be possible to disable the headset buttons or the headset recognition itself...

If anyone is still interested, on this reddit threat someone found a workaround for this problem:

Anyone else having issues with the quality of their Bluetooth connection? Never had issues in my car before but now every call I make or receive using Bluetooth in my car has terrible quality, static, disconnecting, can't make out what the other person is saying etc... music connection has been fine so far only other issue now is certain playlists don't sync from my library to my phone on play music. Did not have any of these issues with my s7 very annoying. On latest Verizon firmware and software for my car 2013 s4.

I've had a few issues with what seems to be the Bluetooth not connecting in the full AD2P mode, which puts the audio in a very low bitrate mode that makes the audio sound like it's coming through a walkie talkie. Turning the device off and on usually fixes it. This issue goes way back across android versions, basically all my phones have had this issue from time to time. Resetting it will usually put it into the proper mode.

I had not had any issues but have not connected to my car yet. I do use my Samsung Level U bluetooth headphones and they are great.
Just an update, ended up doing a full factory reset and repaired with the car and now connection is improved! Still get some static but nothing like before!

Hi all
I'm have lineage os 7.1.2 on my OnePlus 2 everything is going well with it until I got a new car stereo with hands free built-in. The op2 has paired to the stereo over Bluetooth no problem and can stream music from my player and Spotify. But when a phone call comes through the stereo pauses but the call doesn't come through the stereo over the Bluetooth. Is there a setting I can change to let calls come through the stereo??
Sometimes ya gotta reset the BT stereo connection via the stereo (peer) itself..

I have a pair of Jabra Elite Active 65t Bluetooth earbuds. I had no problem connecting them to my Huawei Mate 20 X L-29 and they auto-connect each time I put them in my ears, but I have an odd problem. When I put them in my ears they say "connected" and play a little tune and I can then receive and make phone calls, call up and use Google Assistant, etc., and the voice audio through the earbuds works fine. But if I try to play any type of music, whether it is streaming through YouTube or Spotify, or even playing a downloaded .mp3 file through the Google Play Music app, I just get the sound of hissing and stuttering in my earbuds, no music. If I go into settings on the phone and turn Bluetooth off and then back on, voila, the music plays fine and continues to do so until I power my phone off and on and then the problem repeats itself, again solved by turning Bluetooth off and back on. These same Bluetooth earbuds auto-connect and play music fine with my Xiaomi Mi Max 3 and with my wife's Huawei Mate 8. The problem is therefore with this phone, not the earbuds. Has anyone else had a similar problem?

I'm not experiencing this issue. Music/calls/youtube all play fine over bluetooth. I have the China version.
My Mate 20 X (China version, EMUI 9.0.0.137) are intermittent playing music through my bluetooth speaker, even the phone and speaker are next to each other. The speaker is fine playing music with my other Galaxy S8. The songs are stored in my phone, so the internet speed is not a concern.
Hey,
I think this very much depends on the pair of headphones. I have the Chinese Mate 20 X, and I own 2 pairs of BT headphones.
My skullcandy crushers work fine. Crisp, loud, in sync. No problems.
My Jaybird Run earbuds will only work for 1 or maybe 2 songs on spotify before losing connection or turning off. They are basically unusable. I'm not sure if it's the phone's fault or whether its more generally a bluetooth 5.0 problem?
I've tested my Jaybird Run earbuds on my old phone and I have no problem.
There are so many factors, its hard to say what's causing this and whether its the fault of the phone, bluetooth 5, or the headphones.
Same with p20pro ( same bt buds) to the point i just go to bt and disconnect and reconnect everytime beforeci start listening .
I m pretty sure its only happening with thid headset since i had a cheap bt headset before and it was fine .

Which buds are you using?
The P20 Pro is using Bluetooth 4.2
So I've done a bit more testing and have now paired my Jabra Active Elite 65t 5.0 Bluetooth earbuds with several other phones, running Android operating systems 7, 8, and 9. They pair and connect seamlessly on both calls and media. But on the Huawei Mate 20 x they connect immediately for calls, but they don't always connect for media playback. Like the chap above mentioned, this happens whether I am streaming music to the earbuds or playing music downloaded to my phone, so it is not a wifi issue. If I can't hear music going to my earbuds when the phone's settings say that I'm connected to them, I have to do one of two things. The first is to toggle Bluetooth off and then back on - in which case they music plays and will continue to do so until I've powered down and reconnected the earbuds. The second way to hear the music is to go into settings/developer options and change the default AAC Bluetooth codec to SBC, in which case I instantly hear music. I can then immediately switch back to the AAC codec (which my earbuds work with) and the music continues to play. There is no way, however, to change the 'default' codec to SBC, as each time you exit developer options it reverts to AAC. Perhaps Huawei could fix this in a subsequent firmware update and that may solve the problem. I'm receiving two more Huawei Mate 20 x phones this afternoon and I'll test it with them as well to see if the problem is isolated to the one phone or if it is a problem with all the Mate 20 x phones.

Your earbuds are using Bluetooth 5.0? That defeats my bluetooth theory.
I really hope Huawei fixes this with an update because it would be nice to use my earbuds with my main phone.
I'm having some bluetooth speak issues - BOSE speakers. However, I don't current;y have the time to find out what or why - Pairs but just doesn't seem to connect properly. I might try to investigate in December

My model is L29
To set the Jabra Service to run in the background (or any app for that matter) go to Settings / Battery / App launch, scroll down to Jabra Service and de-select "manage automatically". That will force it to run in the background all the time. It only uses a tiny amount of memory. You will know when you've done it correctly when you put your Jabra's in your ears (which turns them on and autoconnects them) and you see the little "Jabra Service" icon displayed on the top left hand side of the phone.
The L29 I ordered for my wife's Christmas present arrived today and the Bluetooth media connection problem occurs on it just like it does on my L29. I've tried the Jabra's on five or six other phones now and the problem playing media audio only occurs on the Mate 20 x. Must be a firmware glitch.

I do face the hissing and stuttering during play every time when I am near any electronic stores. This issue has been following me from my previous IPhone 8 Plus before getting this Huawei mate 20x.
After pairing up with huawei mate 20x, I still have similar issues like the description above. But it serves me well when I go for my run and gym. I still use wired earpiece while commute to avoid suspicious look talking to myself. Jabra elite active 65t, is my sports companion only.

Thanks. I've just bought thenm and I'm facing stuttering and interruption while watching prime video while in the subway. I previously had zolo liberty and had zero issues while in the subway. To be fair I always have two devices connected to the Jabra. I'm wondering whether that's the problem...but reading your answer I guess they don't seem to have a rock solid connection anyway.
