Hi all I recently updated my verizon note 8 to 8.0 and all is well except bluetooth. Even connected to my car songs will skip stutter and often disconnect itself from bluetooth altogether. I never had this problem on 7.1. Any ideas how to fix this? Anybody else have bluetooth issues with this update?
I only use it on my LG HBS-1100 Headset and no problems. BTW, love all the sound optimizing this phone has.
Now if ONLY it could be rooted so I could have Viper back
I've noticed some lag or difficulty connecting since updating to Oreo. Have not tried diagnosing yet though.
I have stuttering on 7 and 8. But just on bluetooth speakers not headphones.i just associate it with using cheap speakers and higher quality headphones.

A week or so again I tried hooking up my A2DP bluetooth speaker with my S4, running a 4.2.2 ROM. This bluetooth speaker works great with iphones, my HP Touchpad running CM, and my Galaxy Nexus running 4.1.2. I tried it also with a friend's Note 2, running 4.1.2, and it works fine for him too.
The speaker is this one: http://www.amazon.com/Spracht-Portable-Wireless-Bluetooth-Connectivity/dp/B0023B1364
Though I've owned my S4 for 6 months, it may have been the first time I tried pairing it. It paired fine. However, any music streaming attempts fail horribly. It spurts out a few seconds of sound, then goes silent. Intermittently a few more seconds of sound may pop through. If I hit some of the buttons on the speaker (stereo widening, bass boost), a few more seconds pop through, and then nothing.
This is a bit different than some of the other complaints with 'poor quality' streaming. In this case, it doesn't truly stream much. I reverted back to complete stock and had the same problem.
I remember hearing that with 4.2, there were widespread reports of poor a2dp quality, supposedly fixed with the next version (4.2.1? I forget).
Thinking something might be wrong with the bluetooth on my phone specifically, I obtained warranty service and obtained another brand-new/refurbished S4. Right out of the box same problem. This new phone was also on 4.2.2, stock.
I simultaneously obtained a bluetooth adapter for my car, which is also apt-x capable, and it works great. Maybe the apt-x protocol supersedes the a2dp, I don't know.
Anyone else with an older a2dp (only) bluetooth speaker/headset with similar issues, running 4.2.2?
Hey guys,
Just seeing if anyone else has had this problem or can think of a solution that might work. I have 11 Audi S4 with the factory nav and Bluetooth, my wife has a 15 Audi Q3. We both came from Galaxy S4's and this was never a problem. Basically when we pair them to the cars the phone thinks it's a headset so it gives me the volume warnings and such and also does not transmit meta data from Rdio, Spotify, or Google Play Music. It also does this with a few of my speakers that have displays. I have done a full factory reset on the phone and nothing. Also tested in a 08 subaru wrx and same results. Hopefully someone has some thoughts or has had the same issue.
Thanks,
Lunchbox
interesting... I have 2 Fords- a '12 Focus & a '14 Explorer, both with the Sync feature... I have paired my Note 4 to both of them with no issues and they both see it as a phone and treat it as such.
The Note 4 does use a newer BT stack right? v4.1 is newer than what was on the Galaxy S4 I think.
updates for your gear maybe? It's tough cause you are seeing it across a few different devices.
Ya I was thinking the same seeing how that is much newer. I do wonder however why the controls don't work at all that is the only really strange part got me.
I'm having problems also with my 2014 A6, Note 4 connects but any audio played from any source skips alot, phone calls seem to be working normal.
note 4 bluetooth issues
I am having issues with the bluetooth on my Porsche PCM when on calls it sounds like there is a bunch of paddles prattling for a few seconds every 10 t0 20 seconds and then the call will sometimes drop. Any ideas?

Pixel 2 XL on 8.1, my bluetooth headphones will connect just as normal than after roughly a minute of music playing they will just disconnect.
I have reverted back to 8.0 and everything works perfect, with the exact same headphones.
Anyone else have this issue? Or know of a fix?
i am having a similar issue, but I am still on 8.0. My headphones will just disconnect randomly. Pretty annoying.
Not had this issue yet

I was actually having issues with Bluetooth on 8.0 pretty regularly, but after upgrading to 8.1 they have completely gone away. I was having issues with music skipping in my car, audio just stopped working while listening to music or podcasts on my headphones, and my headphones and my car would disconnect. I installed DP1 the day it came out and have had 0 issues with Bluetooth since. I would wait until the November 8.0 update though to see if the Bluetooth fixes get bundled in that.

Yeah I installed 8.1 yesterday. Initially I had an issue connecting with 8.1. Then it resolved itself and is working great now with no issues at all.

I've had bluetooth devices disconnect on 8.0 and 8.1. Headphones have been ok. My Truck (Ford Sync) will disconnect very randomly and then connect back. Normally when I'm on the phone. I have a couple of golf gizmos that connect with bluetooth and they will disconnect randomly also
I have been experiencing the same issue on 8.1. I didn't try the headphones on 8.0 so I can't say if it also was happening on that build.
Based on previous responses it is also happening on 8.0.
Update: I moved back to 8.0 and my disconnect issues have stopped.
I paired my Pixel 2 XL the day I got it to my 2013 Fusion with Ford My Touch.
Everything worked great for the first couple days until I installed DP1 and now my text messages don't pop up to be read to me anymore?
I'm on 8.0 and have been having a lot of Bluetooth issues. My wireless earbuds work with other phones just fine, but on this phone the audio goes in and out on one of the earbuds. I want to update to the beta, but I have Substratum installed and don't want to lose it. Living that dongle life for now, lol. I just hate that every time I go to charge, I'm using the port already for my wired headphones. *1st World Problems*
Hi. Wondering if anybody could help. When I connect my oneplus 5T to my car I have problems. When it starts to call it disconnects the bluetooth from the car completely. However the call continues on the phone which is a complete pain as you cant use it through the hands free. Car is a BMW 630CI with pro nav if that helps.
Many Thanks
i first had problems to connect to my audi A3 bluetooth ... it simply didn´t find it
after trying again and changing the bluetooth audio codec it suddenly worked ...
Idk if it will work for you, but you can try changing the codec and se if it helps
Hi. Ive tried all 3. It connects fine and I can see my contacts but as soon as I hit dial it disconnects from the car.
Very strange.
Thanks for the suggestion tho
with mine in my car it every now and then gives me this a crackling sound.. Kind of irritating, I'm hoping a software update down the road fixes this.. I've tried all 3 codecs
Having issues with Bluetooth connection on my Prius Prime as well. It always disconnects, I had to disable Bluetooth on the phone and re-able it for it to work.
I experience the same with my Boss QC35. First connection, audio breaks with lots of noise and had to disable it and re-enable it.
Still found no solution. Hope the next update sorts it out as the bluetooth seems a mess.
So after looking around, there are issues with certain codecs and devices connecting being posted in the OP community forums. My Sony WH1000xm2 headphones stutter when using AptX HD. My JBL Everest 750NC's - if you turn the volume up too high, they disconnect from the phone. In my Cadillac ATS, whenever you place a call it'll stay connected, but you won't hear anything, and the other user can't hear you either.
I think they've acknowledged the issues and are working on them, but after putting Oreo on my Moto G5 Plus and Oreo's ability to change between all codec's on the fly (including native LDAC support!) I'm anxiously awaiting Oreo to be 'officially' released.
I'd say just be patient.. I'm sticking with this phone because I think it'll be worth it in the end. Wish I had better news!
so I resolved my Bluetooth issues by flashing FreedomOS. Now there is no intermittent crackling sound now and there is no issues at all ymmv, this was just my experience.
Thanks. Will wait for Oreo and then try different roms if it continues.
on FreedomOS before, it was giving me headache re-connecting to my Subaru car bluetooth, like after you shutoff engine, go somewhere and come back, unless you manually force connecting to the car, it barely auto reconnect back.
And also takes so long to get data sync from my Fitbit chargeHR to the app.
I don't think this kind of bluetooth issue related to what rom we have but the kernel and more specifically BT firmware.
-----edit-------
My friend also got BT issue when he tried to connect to BT headset. Hope Oneplus get something fixed on new oreo or updates
Just an update. Since upgrading to the official Oreo rom my problems have disappeared and my phone now works fine with the car Bluetooth.

I still have problems. Pause and unpause, and the track restarts. After ending a phone call the track restarts. 2018 RAM, Uconnect
With stock ROM 4.7.2 bluetooth connected only for a few seconds with my Audi A6. With every following stock ROM version it didn't even connect.
I tried every single Audio-Codec and the different settings in developer options - nothing helped. Once I cleared data & cache from the bluetooth system apps followed with a soft brick
Hi all,
Had same issues with my Hyundai ix35 and oneplus 5t (Nougat), tracks skipping, distorted audio in calls, etc... Tried emptying bluetooth cache, switching audio codecs without success. Now I just received the OTA update to Oreo (8.0), Oxygen rom 5.0.3 and it solved the issues!!! Yeay, no more auxilary cable hanging around !

I started from scratch but the issue persists.
I am having the same issue in my car. It no longer displays track information and the connection is not very stable. I will try switching the codec and report back.
i don.t have any volume control from the phone basically when i connect it to my car stereo
i can control the volume for the first 4-5 clicks ... and then the slider moves but there is no difference in the volume
i have to turn the volume from the stereo almost to the max
whit my old samsung tablet works great ... i have maybe 50% more volume then with my phone
tried all codecs ...
So, somewhere in May I received the automatic update to Oreo 8.0. Hurray! Sadly though, that's when my bluetooth problems started:
It connects to my car, as normal. And I can make and receive calls, as always. But during the call my bluetooth connection with my car would just drop. If the person on the other end of the line is patient enough, I can just reconnect while driving and continue. But it will drop once each minute. It's very frustrating. This worked flawlessly before the update.
Funny thing is there are no issues at all when playing music of a portable speaker. I can even play spotify through my car's speakers without problems. The problem only presents itself during calls on the carkit. To make sure it's not the car, I tried some other phones. My wife's samsung, also with 8.0, worked perfectly. So does my daughters Iphone with IOS. My car is a Volvo C30 from 2012. It has built-in phone connectivity.
What I tried:
- Unpairing and pairing again.
- Hard reset. In combination with re-pairing.
- Using the developer options to use Bluetooth AVRCP 1.4. In combination with unpairing and re-pairing.
- Using the developer options to use Bluetooth AVRCP 1.5. In combination with unpairing and re-pairing.
- Disabling automatic bluetooth/wifi scanning in the location settings.
- It even went to the repair center for a different issue (unresponsive touch-screen) and the repair notes stated that they also installed the newest software. So I had hopes that this would resolve my carkit issue, but it didn't.
Do you guys know any more tricks for me to try?
I have an XA1 ultra with Oreo 8 as well (build 48.1.A.2.21) and I'm experiencing the same problems, but adding that mine disconnects also when streaming music. Other problem I'm experiencing after the Oreo update is that,when using my watch (LG G Watch R) paired with the phone, the sound streaming is just crap, with lots of jumps and bad audio quality. This is so frustrating that I'm seriously considering buying a new phone ( not from Sony, of course)
:crying:
Anyone?
