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.
i flashed Lineage OS 15.1 yesterday and i like it a lot except the there is some problems with the audio including(low volume, very poor audio quality, audio disappears when switching apps) and some mic problems as well, i have J7 prime G6010f and i have searched everywhere fro a solution please help me.
edit: there doesn't seem to be a problem while suing a headset its only when using the internal speaker, i need to fix this audio quality.
Hey there, I'm new here, so maybe you can help me.
I've recently flashed Lineage OS 16 onto my Samsung Galaxy Note 3. I own an bluetooth headset for calling. But i have two problems. The bluetooth keeps crashing regularly and when i make a call with my headset I only hear cracking noises and neither i can here my partner nor he can hear me. All other sounds like music, system sounds and so on are totaly fine. Is there a way to fix this problem?
I have the same issue and have been researching on this issue. No fix till today. Will post if I find one.
Hi there,
can confirm the problem. I tested it with multiple devices from samsung (klte) and almost every version from lineageos 16. Everytime the same behavior. Sometimes bluetooth work 2 hours without problems and then 5 crashes during 5 minutes. The crashes are sporadically.
I'm a bit wondering that nobody of the developer seems to recognized this as an issue. Every entry in a forum I've found was not realley answered. Probably to complicated? I dont know.
The rest of of lineageos is realley great work. Maximum respect! But bluetooth is far away from stable.
I had similar problems in lineageos 15.1 but never in 14.1.
Cheers!
I've the same issue with nexus 6 running lineage 16 and plantronic 5200. it lost connectivity, I need to turn off bluetooth from the headset or phone, then it will work again for short period of time. and then I have to repeat the process, turn off bluetooth and turn it back on.
Any help?
Thanks
Same with Galaxy S4
Bluetooth keeps disconneting and stopping ever since I've install LOS 16. It was fine with 14.
The symptom deteriorates when starting and using another application as if the bluetooth thread's priority was too low.

You have to report the issue to LineageOS GitLab issues. Apparently dozens of users are having the bluetooth issue with latest version LineageOS 16.0 but now with older versions.
Bluetooth keeps stopping.
Lineageos 16 on HTC u11 Bluetooth voice call not working
I've found out that headphones mic only works on Oreo roms (didn't try Nougat...), not on Pie... Bluetooth mic is working ok
Is this a general problem or just my device's fault? What should I have to do for Pie roms to have working mic?

Can please list the ROMs you have tried & faced this issue.
I have used multiple Pie based Custom ROMs & mic did work fine.
Infact for many video shooting projects, I used wired mic (lapple) & headphone based mic for voice over.
Worked ok for me.
Just for testing, try different pair of headphones to see if anything wrong with a perticular pair or brand of headphones.
Thanks
Actually it was not a rom version problem, I installed zui 1.9 qpst and still no sound.
It just was.... dust in the socket... working great now... I've wasted a lot of time thinking it was a software problem but no...
So this phone will last maybe a year more
Hello, I recently installed GSI crDroid in my A325F and change its kernel (from XDA forum). and rooted it with Magisk. My problem is I am when I am connected to a bluetooth speaker and the audio is coming out of the phone instead on the speaker. I tried to change the audio output from phone to my speaker and still it plays under my phones' speaker. Can someone help me with this?

hm? what version ru using. If your using crdroid 8.x and below. go to phh settings > misc > Force AD2P offload and reboot
if your using crdroid 9.x and above then this shouldnt be a problem and shld work right out of the box. If it is not. try disabling ad2p offload and reboot. if it still causes an issue try using bluetooth workarounds in phh > misc > bluetooth workarounds and select mediatek and reboot.
you might be using my kernel that i built. It should not matter. i use the same kernel on my A325F on crdroid 9.3 it works amazingly.
If audio still doesnt work see if the output device is set to your bluetooth headset or speaker
Yes I am using your sent gsi and your built custom kernel. Thank you for that. I now get my bluetooth to work by enabling the ad2p offload. Such a great help ty
Just any case, you know how to port the dual audio of Samsung to the crdroid. I want to work/play audio in a two bluetooth speaker
