I have a sony car stereo and just tried the bluetooth streaming and it is not great, keeps breaking up etc... Just wondered if anybody else is having similar problems or is they any settings I can change or is it just my stereo ??
Thanks
Dave
Try unpairing and reparing. On the G1 (never happened on desire yet) sometimes you get like a "faulty" connection which breaks up all the time. Am using Bluetooth earphones but the concept is the same.

Thanks wil give that a go
Did that fix it for you? Because i have the same problem with my JVC deck ans it didn't fix a thing. This phone works as well as my Fuse/Raphael does from outside the car. 10 feet away.
I am so glad im still in my return window. This phone is really nice under first impression.. but all motorolas crapware, locked bootloader, etc, nulls all the awe put of this phone. I think im giving up on Android for my next contract term. Sigh
-when listen music either on HTC music widget or PowerAmp
- got Gap and silent when using Bluetooth headset
- works fine if direct connect to the ONE X
any idea and fix ???
I've yet to see if this works for bluetooth but had a look at the ROMeOS rom and saw this in the build.prop as monx seams to have fixed the stutter: lpa.decode=true
I've set this in my build.prop and will try through the car bluetooth tomorrow.
To edit build.prop in the system folder you will need root access
thanks , buddy , let me know the result.
Unfortunately made no difference for me, will keep digging though as this is annoying when I have a 40 min commute to work each morning and again back.
Anyone have any idea's?
Edit: this doesn't just happen on the beats setting, turning it off makes no difference.
Anyone have any ideas on any fixes yet?

Have the same stutter issue even after 1.28 update connected with my bluetooth MW600.
Seems the problem is device switching to power conserve core. When i play music in background while running GPS in foreground, iam not getting the stutter.

That seams to be the case, having just sat in my car for 15 mins, 5 mins just music and 10 mins with music and maps and no glitches with maps.

I have the same bluetooth headset, the MW600 and the stutter makes it unusable. I'm on 1.29 stock now and I got to the point that I don't use my MW600 for listening to music anymore, but just wired Sennheisers.
Have you found a solution yet?

No. Not really
After using MW600 for 2+ yrs without much issues iam thinking to order Sony Smart wireless Headset Pro and see if it makes some difference. But, its not yet available in stock
http://www.sonymobile.com/cws/corpo...rtfolio/specification/smartwirelessheadsetpro
I read somewhere that some custom ROMs solve music stutter issue. Iam on stock locked and can't comment though.

I was also planning on buying that Sony thing, but then I found my Nokia BH 214 back. It is now charging and when I'm back home I will test it. If it also stutters, I'm not going to buy a new headset, because it's likely to have the same problems, although that Sony is Bluetooth 3.0, which could make a difference.
I'll let you know the results with the Nokia.
I have stutter problem with sennheiser Bluetooth headphones. Am on stock 1.28, and disabling beats doesn't help (although did help on older version)
Music is unlistenable now

I'm running 1.28 & have the same issue with my car kit which is a works supplied Nokia car kit that allows A2DP connections. I'm definitely going to try running the GPS at the same time on my way home from work to see it that fixes it as suggested. I have a usb charger that I plug in so won't be using any extra juice. I'll post back my results.

Sorry for the very late reply, I completely forgot it. Just yet I tested the Nokia BH 214. First my One X couldn't find it, tried for almost 10 minutes. Then I disabled WiFi, just to try, and yes the headset was found. Then I put WiFi back on, but it refused to communicate. Wifi off again, communicating worked. So to say pairing was easy: far from that.
Now the next phase: listening to music. Completely unusable. Very very bad. There's something wrong with output, vocals are washed away and sound like the singer is 100 miles away. While quality isn't an issue with the MW600. But also the gaps. What is also very strange is when the phone is on my desk in line of sight with my headset, the are only a few gaps. But as soon as I put the phone in my pocket, the gaps increase exponentially.
So I think in my case the only thing left is to send the phone back. There must be something wrong with it, my WiFi reception is also very bad. Bluetooth also sucks, so since WiFi and Bluetooth are handled by the same chip, there must be something wrong with it. I really like the phone and sending it back means it's away for 2/3/? weeks, but first I hoped it was something with the software but that hope is fading away.
--------edit: just pissed of by all this. Called HTC and I'm sending it back for repair. Nice phone, but basics like WiFi and Bluetooth must work and they don't. They said it will be back in 7-10 working days. Hope they can keep that promise. --------
Have the same problem with my Jabra Freeway, really annoying to get thos silent gaps when listening to podcasts and music in the car. Tried to run navigation on my way to work today to see if that made any difference but it didn't :-(

Thanks for info.
Seems the problem is more related to Bluetooth version & buffering.
I'm planning to buy Sony wireless headset pro with bt v3.
I'll update once I get it hopefully by end of June...

I just tried using my Moto S10-HD after reading this, and thought I would tell you my experience. I have alot of music on my phone, and I just hooked up my BT with Wifi on and no issues, so I started to play music and so far 3 songs and no gaps stutter or anything like that. One thing that does happen which prior phones didnt happen is that when the screen goes to stand by after not touching it, there is a .5 second interruption in the song, but thats it I am currently on my forth song and the phone is in "standby" mode and it plays perfectly.
I have the WWE version of the phone using 1.29.401.11 ROM BL unlocked, rooted, and custom stock rom.
Not sure that it helps you but to share my experience; I have occasional stuttering on bluetooth using my Sennheisers if the phone is in my pocket. I found that I can replicate the stuttering if I completely cover the top of the phone with a hand on either side and cupped together at the top - in fact I can cut off bluetooth playback altogether.
This isn't a normal way of holding the phone obviously - but it does count if the phone is in your pocket, there is already some 'resistance/interference' from the surroundings. Other than that, I have great wifi reception, best of any phone I have had.
Could this be a hardware fault? Maybe they just need to boost the bluetooth signal / improve buffering?
I only got my HOX this week, aside from this issue it is great, no other issues - touch wood
Mine seemed to studder when it was in my pocket while I walked my dog. I sent it in for other issues and we'll see if the new one has similar issues.
Same problem here ! Kinda disapointed !
Same problem SonyEricsson HBH-IS800
I also have a lot of stuttering. It appears to be a very weak signal because it works better (though still not flawless) when I have the phone close to the headset.
Putting the phone in my pocket is already far enough for playback to completely stop working.
Since yesterday, my phone fails to detect my headphones as i plug them in. The only time when detection works is if they are plugged in and i do a reset. but as soon as i plug them out, the phone fails to detect them when plugged in agail.
using ARHD 6.0.0
Anyone any idea?
thanks in advance!!!!
I am also having this issue. ARHD 6 with faux kernel.

Headphones are no longer being detected even after reset.
PLEASE does anyone have any tips or fixes? I don't want to have to send my otherwise perfect phone in to HTC

Well your both on arhd....try a factory reset if that doesn't work run a ruu. If neither work its likely hardware

Tried that, even tried different roms and kernels. Think it must be hardware.

I downloaded an widget called toggle headset from the play store which has given me a work around for this issue. I click the widget and it forces audio to my headset. Really weird as the phone doesn't recognise the headset in the normal manner.
Definite software issue IMO rather than hardware as sound is appearing through the headset when using this widget.

stock HOX deadphone detection fail
Hello.
As of yesterday, I too encountered this issue. However unlike the others reporting the issue, my device is running stock, in-fact I only got it back from repair for the WiFi issue a couple weeks ago.
I've downloaded two widgets as a temporary solution. For me "Toggle Headset 2" did not work, while "Wired Headset Routing Toggle" did. (Note: This doesn't force the notification tray icon, but the the sound it still routed via the headphones while switched on.)
Of-course this is not an ideal fix, but at least it is a workaround for now. I just hope there is a proper software fix for it, as I really don't want to send it off for repair again.
I had a similar issue where i was plugging in my headphones and all was ok until i put the phone in my pocket and started to walk, the music would stop and the headphone symbol would disappear, crazy as it seems, i blew down the headphone jack socket and i havent had any issues since, must have been a bit of crap stuck there lol!!!!
I'm having the same problem. Headphones are not detected and Toggle Headset 2 fixes the problem but only partially. Since Sense doesn't know when headphones are plugged in, the Beats sound enhancer never becomes available and (most importantly) neither does FM radio.
I guess I'm sending the phone for repair... I could ask for a replacement but getting a HOX is a lottery so who knows if another phone would have 3 other issue this one doesn't.
Ok, so I'm having the exact same problem as danderzethm, JimmyEatFood and xdn, and I have 2 small questions.
Is this an hardware issue or a software issue?
If it's an hardware issue is the warranty still valid even tho it's rooted?
I've tried several diffent roms and tried to factory reset the phone but to no success, now I have to use a widget called ToggleHeadset to get it to work, but I find it very annoying to turn it on and off all the time.
I am not sure if this has been discussed before, I tried searching around but I couldn't find anyone dealing with this issue before with the GS3.
I've had this problem with the Motorola S305 Bluetooth headset I started using with my GS3. Basically it would have problems going back to regular non bluetooth calls after I would use the headset, even with bluetooth off the call would turn off and on over and over again, but eventually with repairing bluetooth or forceclosing bluetooth share and the phone app I was able to get it to go back to making calls normally, using the speaker for audio as well.
But 3 days ago that changed, I couldn't get it to make calls after I had used the bluetooth headset to listen to some music for a few hours. It'd take 20-30 seconds to launch the phone app and by then it'd have zero audio. The people I called said there was no volume when they connected, and music wouldn't come out of the speaker again. I tried the fixes I had used before, no dice.
I tend to run rooted but just haven't had the time lately to get back to it, so I've been running stock, nothing complicated, but I figured when I pulled the 4.3 stock upgrade that would have to fix it....but it didn't, same issue. I also factory reset, no difference. I can still bluetooth pair and get audio to the headset for music, but i can't make calls that way, seems to have the same 30 seconds of jammed no changes.
I took it to sprint, they had no clue obviously, it wasn't a corporate store and the closest one is a hour and a half away. I'm about to actually call them and demand a replacement be sent, but I should be able to figure this out somehow, am I missing something? I hope someone has dealt with this stupid issue before.
So, since I got my 3xl in October, the audio information would not show in my truck. A person on here showed me the dev settings to make this work back in like December or January (out of the box settings do NOT work though, which is ridiculous). And it did, at least until the February patch. Now it works sometimes, others it either doesn't show, or shows the info from the first song indefinitely. Also, when I first got it, there was no skipping (like my 2xl did the entire time I had it), after the November update, it skips... Is anyone else having any of these issues? I've messed around with the Bluetooth settings in dev options, and nothing seems to work for long. This is super annoying. I have an hour round trip commute, and I drive a lot otherwise, so, being able to see what's playing is important.
How does Google mess up Bluetooth so bad anyway? I've had like 6 other Android phones, and NONE of them ever had stupid issues. Seems like Google needs to hire some better engineers for dealing with it.
I'm sorry to hear you're having this experience. I've never had a single Bluetooth problem.
I have not so good experience with Bluetooth as well. Sometimes my Samsung gear S3 doesn't auto connect. I need to go into settings.
Bluetooth is crap on this phone totally agree otherwise good phone but disappointed in bt performance
I actually did a factory reset when the January patch came out even. Didn't fix it at all.
What developer settings are you talking about? I haven't had any real bluetooth issues, BUT, almost all of my recent flagships have had audio delay issues through bluetooth. It's not a lot, but it's annoying watching Youtube with about a second delay.

Bluetooth AVRCP version. You can change which version it uses. It's kind of a trial and error but sometimes you get lucky and find that a different version works better with some of your Bluetooth devices.

Hm, I'll have to try that tomorrow with the car and see if I still have a delay, that would be awesome to fix. It is a 2013 so it's using old tech
What kind of head unit are you talking about in your car? Some specs there might be helpful to determine if this is a phone specific issue or has to do with your car's stereo itself. Reason I say this is my old Kenwood KDX-897 receiver in my truck started acting up with Bluetooth and I was able to confirm it's the receiver itself that's having issues not my phone. Not surprising considering the unit is probably about 5 years old now from when I bought it new. You may want to look into updating your receivers firmware which may solve this issue (if possible) or looking at a new head unit. Just some food for thought.

It's the stock 2018 Nissan Pathfinder head unit. I did not have the info not showing problem with my 2xl with the same SUV. I'll check if there's an update when I have it in the shop in a couple weeks. It DID work fine though before the Feb. update. I did have to change the dev settings though, as I said, out of the box did not work... The cutting out seems to have gone away, at least for now, so, that's an improvement. Hopefully, the March patch fixes the other issue.
Also, there is not cutting out that I've heard ever on my Bluetooth speaker. Obviously, it does not show audio info.

I have the same issue on my 2011 Mazda 3, though my OnePlus 6 works with it fine. Of course, the OP6 can't connect to by earbuds, so there is that. Audio does seem to be working fine, no drop outs or anything, but that track info seems to be gone for good. None of the AVCRP options worked for me beyond 1-2 songs either. Though, in my case, it's been that way since Marshmallow - I've always kind of assumed it was the updated BTs, they're backwards compatible for the audio, but not for the track info it seems. Once we hit 4.0 it dropped out (again except the OP6).

I should also add, my wife's Moto Z2 Force has ZERO issues with my Pathfinder. It shows info always, no cutouts, nothing at all, and out of box Bluetooth settings. I really doubt it's my SUV's head unit. It also has Bluetooth 5.
the weirdest things happen to me with bluetooth.. even on the latest update.. i'll be streaming to my wireless jabra's and all of a sudden music stops. it's not disconnected. music didn't pause but it isn't playing either, i have to start the track over, doesn't happen otherwise .
PS it happens the same to my bluetooth speaker
almost same here with latest updates.

I can definitely confirm the Feb. update didn't fix my problem. I even removed the phone from my car and vice versa, nada. I just cleared data from YouTube music then reinstalled. I'm going to see what that does. If nothing, I give up. This is seriously going to become a deal breaker if they can't make their sh$t work right... Music is what I use this phone the most for.

Sooo, I cleared the data and reinstalled YouTube music. It seemed to work, even so I was able to put Bluetooth on the out of box settings (codec). Or, so I thought... It worked for two days then out of nowhere it won't show the info at all again, no matter what I change the settings to... I've reconnected and reinstalled again. Nothing. This is effing ridiculous. $950 phone and Bluetooth, which has been out since the mid 2000's, won't work right. This is really starting to sway me towards looking for a different phone. If I can find a stock Android one that releases updates within 30 days or so anyway. Ugh

I have a 2018 Pathfinder work a pixel 3 xl too. I do have strange Bluetooth issues too. However I blame the Pathfinder because when I use my Jabra Bluetooth receiver and my motion66 Bluetooth earphones the Pathfinder is the only way that is wonky.
The worst thing with the Pathfinder is the delay. I think it buffers the audio for me so everything is delayed. I push play/pause on the Pathfinder and there is a several second delay. Additionally when streaming YouTube and audio through Pathfinder there is a delay.

Mine seems to work with my Plantronics headphones and my Anker speaker fine also. Thing is though, this was not a problem with my 2xl. It cut out a bit, but always showed the info and no delay. My 3xl stopped cutting out with the Feb update, but the audio info is all over the place. It's currently back. It'll start being crazy again I'm sure. I'm not sure I can blame my Pathfinder though? I will try with my wife's Mazda 3 (2016) to see what happens there. My wife's Moto Z2 Force works perfectly with my Pathfinder BTW.
