Sony smartwatch 2 pairing problem. (bluetooth)

Hi everyone, I received today my Sony smartwatch 2 and is pretty good. The only problem I have is that I can't connect it to my main phone an acer liquid e2 duo (the dual sim one).. I can successfully pair it (Sometimes, usually he gave me a pin error) with the bluetooth but then the sw fail to recognize the installed app on the smart phone,it get stuck on the animation that say you to install the Sony app.. I don't think it's a bluetooth problem it seems to be something with the app-smartphone related.
I tried with an xperia phone and everything went good no problem at all.
I really hope someone can help me and thanks in advance.

Same problem

I have exactly the same behaviour with an acer liquid gallant duo. Please help my, otherwise I'll send back the watch to amazon.

Unfortunately Acer's Bluetooth stack is probably missing or poorly implementing some BT profiles required for a correctly working connection.

So there isn't a solution to the problem? Like a rooted app or something that add the correct functionality to the bt?

A possible solution might be installing another ROM, like a CyanogenMod (if available for that smartphone).

Problem solved

I solved my issue using an app on the market called bluetooth fix repair it requires root and it's free ) you have to try a lot of times and be sure to restart the phone after you install the sw 2 app I hope you solve it too thanks to mission impossible for the help I owe you this one thanks a lot

Re: sony smartwatch 2 pairing
At the time of Sales the Sony should prove its own software/support to solve bluetooth pairing issues with different mobile

not working for me

Thank you for your suggestion, I've tryed but it's still not working. Could you please let me know the exact steps that worked for you?

I have a acer e2 too, to me works, but if i power off smartwatch 2 and power on it, the acer doesn't connect. I must restart the phone and it connects.
EDIT: now i have discovered that,when i power off the smartwatch 2, i must kill the process "smartwatch2" from the phone and if i power on the smartwatch 2 it connects! ^_^

Same issue here.
SW2 and Acer Liquid E2 Duo (aka v370) do not connect.
Pairing succedes but after 1 second the connection falls and you have to pair it again and again.
Tried with bluetooth fix repair and once it worked, but it never worked again.
Has someone suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

For me all works great

Restart smart connect on your phone. That fix' in my case.

Fixed update of Smart Connect is available for download!

bluetooth pairing error
Mine too. Could someone help me how to fix bluetooth pairing error. Really need help. Always error when pairing to others device. How to fix. Already try pkill. But didn't find file. Plizz help buddy.

The solution for acer e2 is to install androium 3.5 ROM. It is based on Acer e3 Rom that hasn't any problem!

Which phone and android version do you have?

Mi6 bluetooth problems

Each time I use Mi6 via bluetooth in car to answer/make calls - first call goes OK, and all others not - people I talk to don't hear me. It happena in 4 different cars so it's not car's problem. Mi5 was OK. I run 7.1.1 NMF26X global beta. miui 8 7.6.8 global beta. And can't solve it myself. Tried deleting and re-adding cars, restarted phone - nothing helped. When I switch to phone during call - it's OK. As soon as I switch back to car - same problem. No one hears me and I hear everyone.

Any1?

I'm sorry but I can't test because I don't have any Bluetooth devices.

Not using any bluetooth device either.

Hello there
I'm a new xiaomi mi6 user. I have 7.5.25 version rom installed on my phone. My phone does not see andriod wear app on my smart clock with bluetooth. Also does not share internet with hotspot. There is also a problem with the GPS, the satellites can not find it immediately. can you help me.
Thank you

Ok, one by one.
1. My phone does not see andriod wear app on my smart clock with bluetooth --> My watch works, did you unpair your watch with old phone first? Android wear watch can only connect to 1 phone.
2. There's personal hotspot, you can see it in the settings menu.
3. GPS needs time to find your phone, you need to have wifi (or mobile data connection to assist the phone), if it located your phone, next time GPS will work faster.

It is a different issue with me: when paired with a BT device with the "phone audio" profile enabled, despite picking up the call on via pressing the green button on the touchscreen, it still defaults to the BT device (and I have to switch audio back to "phone" before the other person cuts off after hearing nothing). This is on the global ROM 8.2.2.0...
The global ROM seems buggy as hell...

Hello Friend.
The same happens to me.
It connects to bluetooth but I have no output or audio input.
Did you get it fixed?
Thank you

Everyone.
This is not xiaomi's problem.
This problem is due to oreo's new bluetooth stack.
There is no current solution to this. I've searched far, wide and deep.
Android has a great track record in keeping the bluetooth stack broken.
If you try to search google, you will find out that not only xiaomi phones have this problem.
The only theoretical solution is to port old bluetooth blobs, and somehow make it work. But as far as i know, no one has done this before.
There is hope that android pie will fix this. But from what i read, early builds of pie still has this problem.

Reconnect via BT seems troublesome

After the latest update of Galaxy Watch Plugin (version 2.2.05.18102541N) the reconnection via BT to mobile seems to be troublesome. The connection is often only established after opening of the phone (from sleep).
And still, the automatic reconnection to a known Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi Auto) does not work, it stops in status 'Connecting'.
Having a SM-R815FZKANEE with software R815FXXU1BRHB.

The same here.:crying:

On my 42mm watch and Huawei Mate 10 Pro I have the same problem. I have to wake up the phone to get reconnection. I have 2.2.05.19030741N also. Strange.

To be honest it could also be that my phone (SONY XZ Premium) in the meantime got Pie (@2019-11-22) and 3 later updates.

I have the same problem when got new phone. Thats ridiculous as it is Samsung A50

MIUI 11.0.3 Bluetooth connection problem

Dear All,
I have bought this phone 1 week ago but I have problem with the bluetooth connectivity. When I would like to connect the phone to a bluetooth car device the pairing code request dialog not shows up and because of this the pairing fails. Do you have any solution for this? With Redmi Note 4 (MIUI 11.0.2.) the car works well. I tried it with other car devices but there was the same problem.
Thank you in advance!!!!:fingers-crossed:

Try going to Settings-Apps-Manage apps-Bluetooth and Clear data-Clear all data. It helped me for some time but now Bluetooth problems appear again and I have to do it every time after answering the call while listening to music via Bluetooth.

Hi! try changing your AVRCP version from 1.4 to 1.6 in developer options

Thanks for reply! Unfortunately it does not work! The pairing request dialog window is still not popping up...

Maybe you need te change the bluetooth notification priority to high and maybe check permisions.allow it to show on home screen etc

Thank you for everyone! I found the problem! The app of my bluetooth watch caused the problem, after uninstalling it the bluetooth works again.

I face a similar problem with skoda car infotainment.
In my case pairing is successful but on the first call connection breaks. Even if connection is broken and car's infotainment starts seeking for a Bluetooth connection Redmi note 8 thinks it is still connected and it stucks there. when connection breaks a message pops up that reads something about AVRCP not supported and redmi note not responding
A have unpair both devices many times but same thing happens again and again.
I have to point that i came from a Redmi note 6 pro, where EVERYTHING regarding bluetooth connections and multiple connections were operated just fluently. I have redmi note 8 just 2 days
On redmi note 8 are always connected an amazfit stratos and a meizu ep51 handsfree and there are some other apps installed like mifit.
Do you thing that i should start first by unistalling all apps?

i unistalled amazfit app and it seemed that was getting better but i assume that phone it cannot deal with multiple bluetooth connections. Unforunately it cannot managed android auto (wired connection) and car infotaimnet (bluetooth connection). On the first call connection drops.
I flashed a custom ROM- based on China roms- but things didnt got better. Having both redmi not 6 pro (which handles all bluetooth connections just fine- even transfering active call via bluetooth headset to the car infotainment as soon as it establishes a bluetooth connection while i am getting into the car) and Redmi note 8 on developer options i copy all setting from Redmi note 6 pro to Redm note 8 but all issues are still there.
I wonder if it can be used the bluetooth app from the Redmi note 6 pro to the redmi note 8 but i dont have the knowledge to do it

I have the same problem. It sucks that redmi note 3 which i had before worked 100% ok...

All these issues make phone quite useless considering that everyone goes wirelessly. I wonder if this disappointing case is claimable from Xiaomi.

just noticed the same problem, both of my RN8pro bluetooth mac is 00:00:46:00:00:01 which is nonsense.
maybe you all got the same mac as mine, which is generic mac.

How can I check Bluetooth mac address ? Do I think there is something can be done?

Settings > about phone > all specs > status.
There's a bluetooth mac near the bottom.

I checked my Redmi note 8. It's seems normal, 28:16:7f:b5:65:2b is it?

MIUI 11 - Android 10 version?

The only workaround i found is to keep one connected bluetooth device at a time. So before i get into my car i have to disconnect bluetooth headphones and reconnect them after. Bluetooth management of Redmi note 8 is a big mess. I assume that is a phone's hardware problem its incapability to manage two or more bluetooth connections simultaneously.
I contacted Xiaomi customer care regarding bluetooth issues and i was finally asked to perfrom a test. I wonder how a test could resolve it

In the attached screenshot in developers options the max connected audio devices option is 2 but it's deactivated so i cannot changed it eg to 3. Could it be the solution to bluetooth connectivity issues? Is there any way to activate this option and change it?

Bluetooth not working

Bluetooth, 4G connectivity and notifications issues

hi everyone,
(i posted a similar message to another thread which might be obsolete)
my previous phone was a redmi note 6 pro and now i run a redmi note 8.
On both phones are installed the same apps, same use and same connected devices.
Issues on redmi note 8 (runs MIUI Global 11.0.4 PCOMIXM Stable):
1. it cannot maintain bluetooth connection (initially is connected but connection breaks as long as a call takes place) with car's infotainment . I've read that smartwatch app might cause the problem, in my case amazfit, which is true but i do need both amazfit app and bluetooth connection to my car. I changed AVRCP from default 1.4 to 1.6 but didnt help. Any help?
2. While redmi note 8 is connected to bluetooth headset (i've checked meizu ep51 and mi sports) all text message notifications sounds go through the headset not the phone. Notifications settings are checked. I think its a wider issue. A workaround is to disable media audio for specific bluetooth connections but you can not listen music thru the headset then.
surprisingly Redmi note 6 pro handled all aforementioned successfully.
3. mobile internet connections is often interrupted (for an unknown to me reason) and i have to switch on-off airplane mode to restore internet connection

nope
in addition to all these issues i realized that from some apps with all necessary permissions given there are no notifications at all. Another issue is that DND seems not to work. No matter if DND is enabled or not by AutoDND option, sounds are active unless i turn on or off manually
I wonder if a custom ROM is free of these bugs, but which one?

why don't you try flashing the stock ROM with mi flash via the fastboot method and then see if these issues still exist.

In case the ROM hasn't been flashed correctly?
Does it make difference from downloading the latest package by the updater menu?

Yes you can update from updater app too...but it's much better if you flash via mi flash fastboot method as it's a much more clean flashing and also it flashes all the partitions... fastboot flash is known to solve some issues...make sure you have a backup of your data .... you'll also need an unlocked bootloader but that's not an issue as you can lock your bootloader again if you want to while flashing via mi flash

No , i have no solution of anything. I reflashed phone's same ROM, no hope.
I look for a custom rom hoping it would be bug free

Same problem here ( Redmi Note 8T MIUI V11.0.3.0.PCXEUXM)... Using Notify & Fitness for Amazfit with my Amazfit GTR and connection is unstable, every now and then connection is lost. Also transferring watchface is taking long time, about 10 seconds for 1%, and on my old Huawei it is about 1 second for 1%. I also tried another watch, but same problems. Tried every AVRCP setting (1.3, 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6) but same issues. Has anyone tried custom ROM or maybe MIUI EU? I'll try but have to wait 1 week for unlocking bootloader.

I also have to wait one week to unlock my phone. Firstly I'll try a XTRV ROM which is China source based.
