Bluetooth device not discovered - Samsung Galaxy A70 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Th A70 of my wife is not able to discover her new bluetooth earphone: a JBL Reflect mini 2. The earphone has been replaced with a new one after has stop working. The old one was used by my wife for 6 months without problem. To connect the new one I had to remove the old entry from the registered device because the name was the same and the phone is trying to pair without success. After removing it the phone is not able to discover the earphone anymore. The earphone are never listed on the available device. I've test it on my Note 8, and earphone is working corectly, pairing with my phone without problem.
I've tried to start the A70 in safe mode, but the phone still not discover the earphone.
There is something more I can try to pair these earphone, without reset phone?
Thanks
Edika

Bluetooth no longer plays music through headphones, but calls still go through

Hey guys,
So okay, I am having an issue and have not been abe to solve it for a week now. Allow me to start...
I have the sony MDR-1RBT headphones. I've had them since last February and have used them without any problems. Connection, set up, and usage has always been a breeze. Until recently.
I started my day and connected my headphones like usual and it said they were connected. Cool. Went to play music and it played through my phone. Not sure why. Tried to make a call, audio went through bluetooth device. So they say they are connected and playing through the bluetooth device but is clearly is not.
Things I have tried to fix it:
power cycling phone and headphones
disconnecting and reconnecting bluetooth connection
gone into device settings and made sure media was checked for my bluetooth device
researched through the internet
followed what the person on this link suggested: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ge...r-playing-note-2-music-but-does-do-calls.html
The last step, when I tried it it connected! Yay! Then I turned the headphones and bluetooth off and went to turn em on again and it went back to not working. Tried the same method and it didnt work.
I am running on an LG G2 Rooted but not ROM'd. I know the issue is not with my headphones because I tried to connect the device to my Jawbone Jambox and it did not work on that either. I am not sure why it is not working.
I consider myself pretty tech-savvy and I am pretty upset that I haven't been able to figure it out. Let me know what you guys think.
When you go to your phone bluetooth setting with a list of paired devices, do you see 1RBT listed in there as "connected to phone and media audio"? This is very important because it sounds like it's only connected to phone but not media audio.
Do you have any other bt devices you paired up with your phone? Like wireless speaker or another set of headphones? Quite often if you have a few with power, there will be a race condition which one gets connected as media. But since you said music was playing through your phone speaker, I assume there is not conflict with another device. But nevertheless, just delete all your previously paired up devices in Bluetooth list to make sure there is no conflict. Remove 1RBT as well. After you remove everything, reboot the phone, and do a fresh pair up with 1RBT. See if that helps?
Also, try to pair up these headphones with another device, either phone or a tablet to make sure there is no issues with bluetooth radio on your phone. If you have access to another bluetooth device, try to pair it up with your phone to make sure everything is working as expected.
Let me know the results, and we will go from there.

Vectron's Suggestion Worked For My Bluetooth Headphones
I was heaving the same issue as the OP all morning. My Beats66 Bluetooth headphones were working just fine since I got my Alcatel Idol 4, with Android 6.0.1 (Marshmallow) phone through wireless provider CricKet, just 2 days ago. I primarily purchased the headphones for placing phone calls, just because most Bluetooth headsets I have purchased, and Android phones in general, are too low volume for my impaired hearing to make out. However, I do listen to music on them as well.
This morning as I am exiting a taxi, I hear music coming from my backpack. Somehow, something launched one of my music apps, probably the buttons and screen were activated while items in the backpack pressed against them. The settings said Media and Phone were connected to Beats66, and the phone did come through the headphones only, but the music would only play on the phone's external speakers.
I found this thread from a Google search, and Vector's post was helpful for me. I went to Bluetooth settings and highlighted Beats 66 headphones, then selected "Forget." I rebooted the phone, paired the headphones, and all my music apps play through the headphones now. Lets see how long it lasts right? Since this is a brand new out of the box phone, I did install numerous Apps, all of which want user authentication, permissions, and countless settings and permissions to interact with other Apps and phone hardware. Hopefully with everything getting set up the way I like my phone, (I'm particular about everything, or I just find the phone annoying rather than a tool), I won't make anymore changes that will alter the operating status of the headphones.
Thank you
I am experiencing the exact same issue on my LG G3 with my Skull Candy Wireless headphones. The headphones pair and phone audio works, but Pandora, Google Music and any other streaming audio app plays over the phone speaker. I noticed that I received a Carrier OTA software update on Jan 17, 2017 and am wondering if that is when it may have charged. The only way to resolve it so far has been to clear the BT cache. This is temporary fix as when you attempt to pair again it is back to only phone audio and no music audio.
My headset is not working with music until you turn off the phone audio just to play music. My phone is Lenovo A2010-a and my headset is Nia X2. Please help

Ever get this resolved? Still having this issue and so far only fix for me has been using Ti Backup to nuke all the bluetooth data, rebooting and then it'll connect fine. I also have Skullcandy BT headphones. Trying my car's BT too to no avail. Same problem. I think this is the same issue: https: //forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/bluetooth-calls-media-audio-t2837471/page4
I ended up buying an Amazon​ Moto G4 as it is slated to get Android 7.0. I honestly believe it had something to do with the last security update LG pushed out. Since the G3 is not updating I will attempt to root and rom at some point though recent search seem to show the LG G3 can't be rooted.

I rooted mine fine with Kingroot. Get Kingroot, root, install twrp and flash supersu then delete Kingroot. Worked for me at least.
As far as this BT bug with the G3 I don't have anything better than the data wipe workaround so far, so good luck with the Moto.
Thanks guys. I also had the same problem but i restarted my phone and my music is just playing. Yah!!!!!!!!!!

ZE550KL bluetooth speaker not detected

Hi guys,
Testing my 2 days old ZE550KL spotted that does not find Bluetooth speaker Sony SRS-X11. No SIM yet in but don't think it matters. Tried installing Easy Connect NFC and still the same issue.
I can find and pair Nokia C7 and Ace s5830i with the speaker.
ZE550KL can find and pair with the Nokia and Ace.
At the moment raised an incidence to Asus and queried Sony.
Any ideas? Compatibility issue?
Thanks!
Did you PAIR your device? I had to hold the power button in on the device I wanted to receive the signal. that way it finds your phone.
I cannot even pair them, after pressing scan devices it does not find the speaker so I cannot reach that step.
I scan devices with the two other mobiles at the same time I do in the Asus and they can detect it.
Asus reply is asking me for factory reset which has no sense as the problem happens from day one, with factory settings.
I still need to install 3 releases, now have ww_v1.11.. and latest is V1.15.40.639. @Chocketbear: I have not yet tested your proposal,will do when back home

Bluetooth pairing problems

Hello, I am getting weird problem when using bluetooth devices with my HTC 10 (stock rom)
I bought a bluetooth device with aux-in for my car radio.. That way I only enable BT on my phone and devices connect without problems.
But I also have a small Bluetooth speaker I use when I renovate the apartment (JBL GO).
The problem is when I paired car bluetooth device so it can connect automatically and after that also connected bluetooth speaker this one does not want to connect. If I unpair car bluetooth device, the speaker connect normally.. also if speaker connect and I come down to my car and try to pair to car bluetooth device, it doesnt want to connect/pair... Again if I remove BT speaker from paired devices, car bluetooth device connect normally...
Why is that, anyone knows a solution? Why can I have only one BT device paired with my phone?
Thank you for answers
i have this problem too.
Had this problem myself.
Updated to the latest firmware, rom and kernel.
Currently using cleanslate.
Turn on the BT device, make sure no other BT devices are in the near radius which may confuse it, no wireless devices (I know hard in this day and age)
Turn on BT on your phone, hold it up clearly (not laying down) close all apps, and open the Bluetooth menu.
Click the Bluetooth device to make sure it's ready to pair. Then scan on the phone.
Should start picking it up.
Repeating this and turning the BT device on and off periodically, allowing for several attempts at a time before switching off..
Even really it'll work, perhaps a different rom or kernel combination may help..
I have had this problem, once connected it'll always work and work well. It's odd
Same issue somewhat..I really want to keep this device...i dooooont want to go back to the s7. But on the S7, i could have my Gear S2, Sync and LG Tone all paired at the same time...If i got a call they would all ring and i could answer on whatever device...now if i have the LG on, sync wont find the device. or the phone wont allow for sync to use the Phone, because the S2 is using that feature...what gives? just me?

Do you have another device to try it with? i have had a similar problem, but its just my terrible bluetooth rockford deck causing me grief, and an ebay pill. But it did it with a lg g3 and xperia phone as well. so i chalked it to that
Seems like HTC only allows one bluetooth profile at a time. Like it will only allow one device to use the phone profile or one device use the media profile.
I have to turn off my tone for Sync to connect. Sucks.
I've had this problem since purchasing the HTC 10 about a month ago. My Bluetooth earphones work without issue, but I've been unable to connect to my car or portable speakers (pairs but never connects).
After reading this thread, I unpaired the earphones, cleared all devices, and I was finally able to connect to my portable speaker. So glad I found this topic.
Still, I'm hoping for a fix. I don't want to bother with pairing and unpairing just to connect to a different Bluetooth device.
Similar problem
Hello !
I am having a similar issue!
I have been trying to register and pair my phone with my car's Bluetooth.
Every time I try to pair with my car an error message pops up saying "couldn't pair with Hands Free System because of an incorrect PIN or passkey" except it never even prompted me to enter the passkey...
Things I have already tried:
Resetting network settings
rebooting phone
Factory reset phone
Also , I do not have any other devices paired with my phone.
Any suggestions??

Problems with BT pairing w/ Kenwood stereo

Hi -
I have a rooted HTC One M9 with the stock Marshmallow image (http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-one-m9/development/6-0-verizon-htc-one-m9-marshmallow-3-37-t3318605) from here loaded. I had my BT devices sync'd up, including the one to my truck's Kenwood stereo, but suddenly for some unknown reason the other day I lost all my remembered BT devices. Now when I try and and pair it up with my Kenwood, it offers a 6 digit number, and the same 6 digit number appears on my phone and gives me the option to pair or cancel. Then it fails saying incorrect pin or code. Doesn't seem to matter whether I just hit pair button on phone, on stereo, or on both. If I leave BT on it obviously keeps trying over and over.
The device WAS BT paired before the mysterious disappearing of my BT devices recently.
My bother's S4 connects to Kenwood just fine.
My HTC One M9 is paired with a BT speaker without issue.
I'd really prefer to not do a hard reset, but suppose I could take a Nandroid backup and do it just to see what happens after the reset.
Any ideas?
Thanks SO much in advance for any advice anyone may have!!

Question Audio not routing to Bluetooth earbuds

Anyone having issues with audio not routing to Bluetooth earbuds? Only fix for me so far is to reboot the phone. But the issues comes back later or the next day.
It's strange too, I'll have issue with the galaxy buds pro not working for audio or phone calls but I switch to the Sony XM4 and it works for audio but not for calls. Reboot and both works again. I've tried unpairing and resetting Bluetooth and also the earbuds but nothing works except reboot of phone.
Network reset and try clearing the system cache.
Try swiping down once then hit media output and selecting the Bluetooth device there
not sure if these will help as well but these were the solutions i have done when i had bt issues. these are not in order by the way, but alternative solutions
1) clear the bt cache. unpair then pair again
2) i installed bluetooth audio widget
3) i once bought a jam loud buds from jb hi fi. it would drop out or it wouldn't connect at all to my fold. turns out it was still paired to my old samsung note 9. had to delete that pairing and it finally worked with the fold. didn't know some devices only paired with a phone once
4) bt version. i had an old bt remote used by my daughter. it paired with the fold but did not work. did some reading and the bt version of the remote could be the cause
5) above posts from blackhawk and sonin66

Buds+ software and firmware* have given me a lot of trouble. A real pain. I'm running two N10+ N975U/N975U1's one on Pie the latter on 10.
These are the apps I load but they may not work on 11 or higher, don't know... In any case uninstalling then reinstalling may fix your issue if the network reset fails too. Firewall block "Apps (UID)10343" and Wearables Installation Manager. Keep them blocked or they will update... and you'll be repeating the process.
For all these apps they must have all their permissions enabled to open!!!
*if you have a pair of Buds+ do not upgrade their firmware! It trashed the sound in my one pair. Now they need reflashed...

done this, and the correct device was selected but no audio. Sometimes music audio works fine but not calls
Idk if this happens for you guys but I went to a sony showroom today and when I paired my mobiles with some soundbar units like sony HT-S40R, HT-G700 and HT-S500F and some other models soundbar all of them got this weird issue, we can hear the music but every 2 or 3 sec it feels like it stops and then resume ( on the music player app it's working normally) I though maybe because of my spotify app I tried Youtube, youtube music amd amp all of them gives the same weird results ... This was before rooting my phone ... Ofc after rooting it it's stil the same issue (Android 12 and 13) hopefully this happened with those specefics models and not with my earphones or headphones bluetooth
Also note my S21 ultra works perfectly with the models said above
