Question Weird Bluetooth problem - Google Pixel 6 Pro

I have a headset that will pair with my Pro, and it says it is connected, but when I make a call it will not actually sending audio to the headset. It works on my Galaxy 4 watch as expected, just the headset. I have unpaired and paired several times always with the same results. anybody else?

What kind of headset do you have?

No problems here - only tried with the Pixel Buds A-Series so far, but will be also pairing a Samsung Level-U when I remember to.

I've got a different issue. When I use my Aeropex to pick up a call on the Pixel it does so on the phone immediately but delays the signal back to the headset that it has done so and people hear the ringtone coming from my end for 1-2 seconds. Very odd.

problem using bluetooth headset on desire

Hi all, I have a new Bluetooth headset h680 which I have paired with the desire, its connected and when on a call the person on the other end can hear me but I cannot hear them....anyone have a similar problem?
No, but only tested Plantronics 975. which works fine.
I Have a problem with the bluetooth as well. The connection and pairing are OK but there is no sound coming out of the headset.
I've google it and it seems there is a general problem with the bluetooth audio.
I also have a bluetooth problem.
I paires with my car kit (jvc kd-r711) and after a few seconds i get a error saying "headset disconnected"
I've read similair problems since the froyo update. Anyone else have the same problems?
@johnsten
Yes, I have the same problems with my Volkswagen Golf 6 navi!
At first, the phone connects just fine. No problems at all. Made several calls, phone book is synced automatically. All fine..
But then after some time it gets bugged. When I tart my car, and the systems sais.. phone connected. My desire sais "headset connected", and after some seconds it says "headset disconnected". The Bluetooth connection remains active, but the phone is not in "headset" mode.
The only thing that really seems to fix this problem is a full system swipe, but then I lose all by programs and Angry birds savegames
I really want to get rid of this problem. Any ideas?
Grtz, Ron
similar to jah, only tested the plantronics 975, never had issues
also working well with my Jabra Extreme so far
no problems with Nokia BH-503 and SE MW600
No problem with my SE MW600 either, for 340 SEK (36€) it has everything I need: volume, back, play-pause, forward and mic
No problem with either my JVC-901 car head unit or Sony Ericcson HBH-980 stereo headset
ford focus bluetooth headset issue
Hi there, I have a problem with the desire and Bluetooth with my Ford focus.
It pairs fine, but looses connection after about 45 seconds. If you check a task manager you see the Bluetooth process at very high CPU after the disconnect, for a number if minutes.
If you make a call before the Bluetooth drops out it remains connected for the duration of the call !
Tried disabling WiFi etc, makes no difference.
Any ideas?

I had just the exact problem no problems any more though after this fix I dont know if it was a bad rom flash that screwed something up for me but BT works great now
I have the same problem, bluetooth paired but can not hear anything. I tried over 10 different, but it does not help. Can anyone solve this problem?
I'm having a similar problem with my car stereo & HTC Desire bluetooth connection.
I have a Silvercrest stereo with blutooth which worked with my provious Nokia & Blackberry but cannot get it to work with my Desire (2.2 Froyo)
The 2 devices will pair but when I try to make a call or receive a call the devices disconnect.
I am not at all savvy about flashing ROM's or anything so as simple a resolution as possible please...(& no, changing my car radio is not an option )
Any info is greatly appreciated as I spend a lot of time in the car & need the hands free

I have a Pioneer 7100bt car radio and a Desire with Leedroid 2.2f and i does the same.
Does somebody know a solution??
I too have a H680 and like you, callers can hear me however, I can hear them but very quietly even with volume full up.
I also have a Jawbone 2 where I can hear callers but they cannot hear me very well.
The Jawbone 2 was fine with previous handsets.
No solution though, sorry.

I have a pair of LG-TONE HBS-730 earphones and also a FM transmitter in my car. Last night and this morning I had a similar problem as yours, and I had to restart the phone so I could hear music and calls through the bluetooth devices. A couple of hours ago, I tried again and everything worked very well, BUT after disconnecting them, the phone went like it was on Silent Mode. No sound at all, no ringtone, no music, even the alarm didn't emit any sound, so I had to restart the phone and sound got back to normal. At this moment I am doing some tests connecting and disconnecting the BT earphones, but the problem is gone, so I don't know what's going on.

On my s3 it paired automatically! on the s4 i had to do this.....
With the Power off, press the CALL button and move the power switch to the ‘ON’ side at the same time for 4 seconds to manually place the headset in pairing mode
I hope this helps!
Use BT all the time on my gs2 ill try this out tomorrow and see if there is anything out of the ordinary.
Needing to pair the bt device to the phone is very normal for the very first use - especially if its been paired with another device in its history. Ive found bt devices (headsets like the jabara bt3030/street2) often cant really have more than 1 or two pairs total or they dont connect / dont stay connected properly.
Also the samsung bt stack has had lots of issues with BT devices over the galaxy generations. hopefully its not back.
I've used a Moto S10 & S11 HD stereo BT and 2 different Jawbones without issue.

[Q] Bluetooth reboots Note 8

I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 8 LTE. I connect to it using a bluetooth headset (listen to tunes while on my commute) and my FitBit One.
The FitBit One doesn't exactly "pair"...I don't know how it works really...I think it's that new Bluetooth LE thing...
My Bluetooth headset does pair and it works great...in fact both devices work fine.
Except when I don't use my headset for several hours. When I get to work, I disconnect my bluetooth headset and put it on the charger. When I go home, if I attempt a bluetooth connection with the headset, the bluetooth icon on the Note will show blue in color and say "connecting" but it will never connect. The headset makes a "connected" noise and I can manipulate the media player using the headset buttons (next/previous song, raise and lower volume, pause music) but the audio will be coming from the Note's speakers.
Now here is where it gets weird...I can stop the bluetooth service just fine. But if I turn it back on again, the Note will reboot. In fact, if I do anything to any of the radios...WiFi, LTE Bluetooth, the note will reboot.
Has anybody experienced something similar with this device..or perhaps another Samsung device?
Thanks

Can't say I've experienced it. Are you rooted/have a custom ROM? If not, have you tried a factory reset?

Bluetooth connection problems in car

My Note connects to my car (2014 Nissan Altima) but it does not work properly.
My Galaxy S3 worked perfectly fine. The music played, titles of songs showed, calling and phone book features worked, and connected every time automatically. Now it is a completely different story with the Note 4. At first the only problem was that the titles or any information about the song did not show up on the dash. But now I can't even make a call. Even if I manually go into my phone and call someone I can't hear them and they can't hear me. The only thing that works is the music plays through the speakers.
Is anyone else having this problem or, most importantly, know a solution?
I posted about this too, I have the exact same problem in 3 different cars from 2008 all the way to 2015 and everyone says to try and update the cars firmware for the new bluetooth but that did not help. The funny thing is, I had it working fine for a bit then out of the blue it just stopped and now the phone acts like my stereo is a bluetooth headset.

I am having the same issue with my Note 4. My truck has the Parrot MKI9200 bluetooth. With my Note 2 and my wife's S5 i can make a receive calls with no problem. With my Note 4 I can play music over bluetooth, but if I try to make or receive a call I can't hear the person on the other end and they cannot hear me. With one exception. I have found that if I was listening to music over bluetooth then I can make/receive calls with no issues, as long as I let the phone app stop the music playback.
It is driving me crazy.
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?
Hopefully some new firmware in the future can fix these silly problems

So I think I may have found a work around. This morning I went into the bluetooth settings on my phone and I unchecked the Call Audio box and the Media Audio box for my truck. I exited settings. Then went back to settings and checked the boxes. After that my bluetooth worked perfectly for calls and media.
Suckage...

Mine worked with this work around one time. Then back to the old situation. I have a Note 4 and am driving a 2014 Nissan Altima. I'm hoping that with the new Lollipop 5.0 update coming out to the Note 4 that it will be resolved. We shall see. It's very annoying. My old S4 worked flawlessly in my car.
I have constant pairing issues with my 2012 elantra.

I have the same pairing issues in my 2011 Kia Soul - it will pair fine and work - until I shut the car. Then it is a constant pairing failed. If I stop and unpair and re-pair it works again - until I shut the car.
Check under Bluetooth for your car, hit the settings icon next to it, is call and media checked?

Exactly the same issue here. Maybe there is a firmware issue that can be addressed by the dealership.

Easy fix for car Bluetooth issues.
Iny car I would repeatedly get pairing failed issues and would have to unpaid/pair every time I got in the car....
I disabled smart remote and have not had one issue since.

have had the same problem intermittently on my Ford Edge with My Sync connects fine once then the next time connects but wont answer calls or volume drops, only solution i have found is to unpair the device forget it and start over (this happened with my S5 on android 4.4.4 as well)
To disable it... Just long press the icon (in the app tray) and drag it to the top... There is an option I believe 3rd from left that allows you to disable it....I disable all the bloatware I don't use.... I didn't disable smart remote thinking I would use it....
How did I figure out that would work.... I have no clue... But I was having the pairing failed every single time I got in the car... Had to unpair and remove device every time.... After disabling... Haven't had an issue once...

new Ford Edge and same thing paired and worked once using this fix then back to same ol' crap.
I too tried this method of disabling the smart remote but did not have any favorable results. I have tried to sync my phone to two different vehicles and will not even sync one time. Tried on a Ford Sync system and on a 2013 Altima with no success. This is the oh problem I have had with this phone and it is driving me nuts! If any good fixes are found please post for those of us who are having this vehicle Bluetooth problems. Take care.
I also disabled smart remote. After a couple of days it started giving me issues. I have a 2012 Hyundai elantra.

[Pixel 2 XL] Bluetooth microphone issues

Has anyone tested the microphone on their bluetooth sets yet with the Pixel 2 XL?
I'm scared I might have a defective phone. My bluetooth headset connects to my phone just fine, and even plays audio just fine, however, the microphone is not picking anything up. This means I can't use hands free calling, or hands free Google assistant.
I know it's not my bluetooth device because it works fine when connected to my older phone (Nexus 6P)
Has anyone else had trouble with doing microphone over bluetooth? I'm not sure if I need a replacement or just a software patch.
For reference, I use the LG HBS-1100 bluetooth headset.
http://www.lg.com/us/bluetooth-headsets-headphones/lg-HBS-1100-Silver-tone-platinum
Later today, I will try a different bluetooth device.
EDIT: I tried with my older pair, the LG HBS-750, same issue.
I've got a soundbuds tag headset, the connection speed is faster and my phone calls seem ok. I've only made like 2 calls so far though.
@Traceguy I've had several lg headsets and they all sucked. No could hear me or I was breaking up all over the place. Switched to the jaybird x3 and it's been perfect ever since.
Disclaimer: I'm on a Nexus 6. Waiting patiently for the 2XL to arrive next week...
I've talked with Google support, they helped troubleshoot, but nothing could be found out of the ordinary, and it's now being elevated to the next level support team. They have my phone number and will call me back when they find anything.
My Bluetooth version is up-to-date, but there is a update pending for my Pixel 2 XL, which hasn't made it to my phone yet. That may or may not help. IDK
I will get a friend later today to connect his bluetooth to my Phone and test the mic. Maybe it's a total LG issue.
I'm gonna say it's an LG issue. I went through 4 pair of the infinium headsets. All had issues with ppl hearing me. Even when paired to different phones.

I don't know much about how Bluetooth works, do Bluetooth devices use drivers similar to USB devices? Maybe the Pixel 2 XL is missing the necessary drivers for the LG HBS sets. That is something that can be fixed with a software update.
It's not an LG issue. It's happening with my car's head unit and others are reporting it in the Pixel User Community. This is one of a few strings that include it. https://productforums.google.com/fo...pPfDGvkNw;context-place=forum/phone-by-google

I'll just wait patiently to see what happens. I'm hopeful it's not a hardware defect with the bluetooth chip in my phone. I never use bluetooth car's head unit, for whatever reason it drops every few seconds or minutes. I'm driving a 2013 Charger, so I'd expect better results. I use aux, and thanks to the USB-C Dongle, I am not stuck without a way to play my music in the car, though without the microphone input from my headset, I can no longer tell Google which song to play.
I just came here to check.
I can place calls and be hear over bluetooth both on the car and my Sol Republic headphones.
Assistant can not hear over either. Assistant does work over a wired headset.
Support had me boot into safe mode, spoiler: Assistant won't even launch in safe mode, and factory reset which did not fix the issue.
They have no resolution at this time, but are looking into it and wanted me badly to leave feedback on the problem. I'd suggest anyone with the problem leave feedback as well.
At least I'm not the only one. They said I'm the first to call. ut then again they also said it coud be a hardware issue which I just can't see.
Mine, too. I have a Pioneer head unit. Playing is fine, Assistant is fine when not connected to Bluetooth, but Assistant just will not work over Bluetooth. I use this all the time so it's already driving me crazy and it's only been one day. (Same head unit worked fine with previous phones... Pixel 1, Nexus 6p, and OnePlus One.)
I'll add myself here as a +1... Same symptoms. Seems like microphone over BT doesn't work.
I have a Plantronics v5200 and it works for calls. But not for assistant. Sucks......it will activate assistant on a long press. But registers no sound. Works perfect on my original xl. So it's not the headset.
Also confirmed that it WILL work just fine if I launch it with "OK Google" instead of a squeeze or button. So it can work... Starting to seem like a bug in Assistant, which makes me hopeful for a decent fix.
@Anaelith Yes, but did you enable bluetooth Mic input from settings? If not, saying "Okay Google" will use the internal microphone in the phone instead of using bluetooth.
Go to Google Now settings > Voice > Enable "Bluetooth headset". This option "Records audio through Bluetooth headset if available"
That aside. I have tried bluetooth mic in a phone call and it works. I also tried Bluetooth audio with my Car's head unit and have not received a single drop. So the drop problem was related to my Nexus 6p.
Seeing as the mic works for phone calls, the problem seems to truly be software related.
Using a Jabra Eclipse, all settings correctly enabled. Not only does the Google Assistant not work, but neither does voice texting.
Worked fine on my original XL, so I know the earpiece is good.
Guess they better look into this...
Works fine on calls, won't work on assistant.
Man, I'm just gonna get my phones six months after release. It sucks to have to debug all this stuff for Google.
[UPDATE] I wrote here and I have a smaller pixel 2, but I have this issue too.
I'm another one. None of my Bluetooth microphones work on the pixel 2 XL, but do on my 6P
Hi everybody I think I may have found a possible fix/workaround
Settings\search\voice\Ok Google detection
Turn on ok Google anytime turn on trusted voice
(May have to do voice training)
Now when I press the call button and say "OK Google" then the command I hear it in my headset and it works. If I don't say ok google it doesn't work. It may be that it's actually my phone picking it up and not the Bluetooth mic but I hear the audio in my headset and can use it to search Google and play music. And it also picks up my audio in calls
I am on a regular pixel 2

I am facing the same issue. When connected to my BT headset or car BT, it's like my mic mutes after the hot word. Also, some phone calls can't hear me at all. Have to hang up and call back, then no issues. I've also contacted support and sent in feedback with system info to create a ticket.
I was having different issues as well, so I wiped my device and manually put all of my stuff back on (vs doing a restore), just to see if this fixes anything. Haven't retried BT yet, but will this evening. Other issues appear to be gone and the phone feels a lot smoother since doing this though. I think my restore from my OG Pixel didn't go so well.
