Hey everyone. Gotta say, i love this phone its the android device i always wanted. However, im having issues with my car bluetooth which i have not experienced before... namely, that random phonecalls sound completely digitized.
Ive come from an htc desire and htc sensation on the same car without issue and am worried i got a bad BT antenna-or its software...
Anyone out there experiencing the same thing? Any advice (other than buying a new car)?
I am having the same issues on a Verizon Galaxy Nexus V4.02. If I turn bluetooth off mid-call the earpiece sounds fine. The static only happens during voice calls, streaming A2DP sounds fine. There are bluetooth improvements listed in the 4.03 changelog, hopefully this will be resolved.
I had some problems with my BT speaker phone. I turned off the key press sounds and the screen off sounds and that pretty much fixed it.
I have an off topic question for you guys that use bluetooth streaming. Can start the car and press play from the HU to start music? I can with my old D2, but not my TB. I have to actually start the music player on the thunderbolt, then I can control it from my HU. I would like to upgrade, but I don't see a huge advantage in upgrading if I still can't start my music without having to actually take the phone out of my pocket. (Yes, I know it's stupid, but I'm lazy.)
I have this same issue in one of my cars. I ran a number of tests and the issue only occurs on my vehicle when the phone is connected to both for telephony and a2dp music. The static occurs whether or not a2dp is actually being used to stream music or not. This particular vehicle has two separate devices for music and telephony. If I unpair or disconnect the music device, then telephony works without the audio distortion. As soon as I reconnect the music device, the static is re-introduced.

I am experiencing this issue as well and have not been able to resolve it. I've tried disabling the touch sounds, screen off sounds, etc. but to no avail.
It pretty much makes handsfree unusable while driving. What have you guys done in the meantime? Have you been able to resolve the issue yet?
Here's my specific details:
Phone: Verizion LTE Galaxy Nexus v4.02 stock/unrooted
Handsfree Car System (phone audio): Stock 2007 Audi A4
Separate A2DP Module (media audio): Dension Gateway Five connected to factory Stereo
All of my previous phones (Thunderbolt, Droid X, Incredible, OG Droid) have fully supported this setup with no issues whatsoever.
On a sidenote, my A2DP streaming is also unreliable. It first has trouble connecting to the device. If/when it does, audio constantly cuts out when streaming Pandora, Slacker Radio, Google Music... pretty much any streaming over network connection. I have not tried locally stored music yet as I don't have any currently stored on my device. Are you guys experiencing this A2DP issue as well?
I wonder how widespread this is and if it warrants opening an official issue with Google.
I used to have a Blackberry Torch, and I have a Ford Mustang. When I would connect the BT to it, if the Wifi was on, it would "interfere" with the signal. Turning wifi off, fixed the issue. This was a widely known issue with the Torch. Granted that shouldn't have to be a fix, but can any of you verify whether your wifi is on? (regardless of if its connected to anything or not). I'm wondering if the Nexus is using the same BT/WIFI chip that the Torch used.

I appreciate the suggestion but unfortunately, I have the issue even if WiFi is off (I never use WiFi).
I'm going to try and toggle a few of the sound and haptic feedback settings a little more to see if it's pertinent to a certain on/off configuration. It's a shot in the dark but I'll try anything at this point.
ok it was worth a shot. Maybe on a whim turn off 3g/data so basically its airplane mode except BT is on? Just to eliminate any RF interference. Other than that I dont know
Spent quite a bit of time in the car today to try and pinpoint a cause and I have had no luck.
Phone audio will sound great and then all of the sudden turn digitized and distorted for a random period of time, then revert back to sounding great. One thing to note is that the distortion is both ways - the person I'm talking to also hears it when I speak and cannot understand what I'm saying. It's very frustrating not being able to use this feature.
I am on my 2nd replacement phone and ALL of them have had this issue (returned two others to VZW due to this issue and the speaker clicking issue). I am still wondering if it is software/OS releated or if it's due to poor hardware.
Quick Update (kind of):
I messed around with more settings last night. I am happy to report that after I disabled NFC last night, I made several handsfree calls in my car with perfect clarity and no issues. Also, A2DP streaming Pandora worked flawlessly! I was happy that I thought I pinpointed the issue - NFC interference.
BUT this morning, I made a handfree call and it was immediately distorted. Frownie face! A2DP Streaming Pandora still worked great. I am now trying to determine if my success last night was a fluke or if something is different with the phone this morning. The only difference from last night to this morning, that I have been able to identify so far, is I now have the extended battery in the phone. Last night's success had the standard battery. I'll switch them back at lunch and re-test.

I've got the same issue. Even with NFC disabled. Makes listening to Pandora in the car unbearable. I've gone through the same steps as you, but hasn't exchanged the phone yet. I've had previous Androids and it was a hit/miss with the distortion, but with an iPhone or BB never had this issue. Go figure.
thanks to all the replies, will update to 4.0.3 and try out some more options.
- unplugging my music dongle had no effect on call quality
- NFC on or off had no effect
I also find that the music adapter never auto-connects and needs me to go in to the BT settings page and manually select it.
thanks all.
Hello again. So I have an update that adds to the flakiness ...
Updated to the Bugless Beast ROM and Franco's kernel. My intent was to completely reset the phone and hopefully get a new Bluetooth stack in the process.
Initially everything paired OK, but after a while my audio randomly disconnects after about 20minutes and then reconnects depending on its mood.
My phone connection is more controllable now: if the BT is enabled on my phone when I turn on the car, the sound quality is entirely digitized and unusable. If I turn on the car and THEN enable my phone, the sound quality is flawless every time.
Still not ideal, but manageable. For the music audio part, I lay the blame entirely on the Audi Music Interface BT adapter: the thing is crap and always in pair mode even with the car turned off! The telephone BT in the car head unit has seen several phones pair with it without any issues (I do mobile development so I get to play with many phones) so in that case, I can't blame anything but the Nexus.
I really hope someone at Google or Samsung reads these threads since it would be tough to troubleshoot, but there's no doubt an issue exists with general BT compatibility.

Anyone have an update on this issue? Does anyone know of a ROM with a different Bluetooth stack than AOKP? I love everything else about AOKP. I have had the same garbled bluetooth audio from stock - 4.03 with franco and faux kernels with the same result. I had similar problems with Cyanogen 7 ROM I was using on my Incredible the week before I bought the Nexus.
Update - I experimented with a couple of additional devices, and the multiple connections problem with my Nexus is limited to A2DP only devices.
I am now using a Garmin BlueTrip with "phone audio" deselected in bluetooth options. As long as the additional bluetooth device is handsfree profile capable, the A2DP functions perfectly, calls are clear, and the device reconnects after a power cycle consistently. I'm glad this appears to be a software issue and not something we will have to live with for the life of the phone. I'm sure a future update will correct this issue.
I'm also having a problem with Bluetooth calls sounding very digitized and/or choppy. It is bad enough that it can be extremely difficult to make out what the caller is saying. A2DP, on the other hand, has performed pretty flawlessly and the device consistently reconnects each time I get in the car (although it can take up to 30 seconds or so).
I'll have to do a little experimenting with some of the settings mentioned in this thread to see if they have any affect.
On a related note, I feel like sometimes calls made/recieved on the handset can sound digitized as well (although not nearly as bad as over bluetooth). Has anyone else experienced this?
My hardware is:
Verizon GNex (4.0.2)
Parrot MKi9000
I just encountered a strange problem. As I was listening to Google Voice Search kindly tell me the weather, the response sounded strange... "crackling" doesn't describe it correctly, but it sounded as if it was coming through a cell phone with bad reception. I then tried to play some music and it had a similar sound.
At first I was worried that after a good 7 months, the speakers on my GN10 had magically blown out.
But I reset the tablet and now it's fine.
Has this happened to anyone? Should I be concerned about it happening again (or more frequently) or shrug it off as a one time bug?
I'm glad to see the warranty is 12 months (and not 6 months as I originally thought), because I wonder if this is worth sending in to Samsung for repair.
It's not hardware it's a software issue since 4.4.2.
Yes, it is an issue since 4.4.2 and you don't need to reset to fix it. Just put the Note to sleep using the power button, wait 5 or 10 seconds and then unlock again. Make sure you wait the 5 or 10 seconds since it doesn't seem to work if you lock/unlock immediately. If it doesn't work the first time, try a few more times. It works for me and it beats rebooting.
I have the P605 version of tab. I've already ticked and unticked the mono/streo in accessibility but my output for built in speaker is still mono. Only the left speaker is functioning and the right isnt. For the headset, both produces sounds. I cant remember I installed something that have caused this.
Is this related to the 4.4.2 version?
I also have the same exact problem!
The left speaker of my Note 10.1 is not working but the right speaker is perfectly working.
I was so worried because there was a disturbing BZZZBZBZBZBZBBZBZ sound coming from my left speaker. I washed my screen with a few drops of water and I thought some got in through the speaker that's why it isn't working properly. I am so glad to know that this is a software problem and not my fault at all.
Will formatting really solve the problem? Thanks
I have a problem I have a Samsung tab A and on of my speakers are not working the other one is sound fine and when I have headphones in its fine but when I have them out the sound out of the speaker is not on but the other speaker is fine. What should I do ?
I've been having a weird experience with my Moto 360. I listen to music from Spotify or Google Play Music in my car (Audi) over Bluetooth every day and have done for months with every phone I've had - Nexus 4, Nexus 5 and most recently, my OnePlus One. Everything has always worked flawlessly - audio quality is good, no disconnections and generally perfect.
Now my Moto 360 is connected to my phone as well, it seems to occasionally "interfere" with the Bluetooth audio stream periodically. It's more pronounced when I lift my wrist and turn the watch to activate the display, but sometimes happens without this going on too. The audio starts to skip and jump as though there's not enough bandwidth to both communicate with the watch and the car. It usually lasts around 10-15 seconds and is very frustrating. If I put the watch in airplane mode, the issue goes away, but it will restart when I take it out of airplane mode. I've had some success with disabling and re-enabling Bluetooth on the phone to force reconnections, although there is still occasionally some interference after this too. It doesn't always happen and is usually worse in the evenings than the mornings - almost feels like after the watch has been connected to the phone for a long time, there isn't room for anything else to use the connection.
Has anyone else experienced issues like this? I run nightly builds on my phone (which are otherwise absolutely flawless) and I've tried several different ones without any improvement. The 360 is on the latest OTA software update but had connectivity issues before that too. It's definitely the watch causing the issues as when it's nowhere nearby or is disconnected from the phone, there are no audio quality problems at all.

My plantronics legend is multipoint paired to my HTC one max and a blackberry. Since getting the 360 I have noticed a crackle in the audio. If I reboot my phone I can usually clear it up. Seems like interference isn't causing Bluetooth channel hops like it should.
I am having the exact same issue. Moto 360 connected to LG G2 (Verizon) running Cloudy G3 ROM and every time I play a song to any Bluetooth device it stutters for the first 10-15 seconds of the song, then plays fine until the next song. It resolved for a bit when I re flashed, but started again a few days later. Can't correlate it to any changes or installs. Totally stumped.
This is a huge problem! I can't even use Google maps in the car if I have my moto 360 and phone connected to Bluetooth at the same time. I could not use moto voice or Google now as well. Even when my phone rings in the car my speaker crackles.
All this is cured as soon as I leave the car. It's obviously a big Bluetooth issue and moto needs to know about this! This thread should be pinned!
I am having the same issues with my Moto 360 and OnePlus One. It is very annoying and I'm seriously considering returning the Moto 360 now!
It's every phone that does this not just the OnePlus one. Also in my moto x. It's clearly linked to the moto 360 and it's Bluetooth issue.
Yes, that looks like the case and so I'm returning the Moto 360 before the 30 day return window expires!
I was experiencing this issue as well in my Q5. But after experimenting, I don't think it's actually interference with the Bluetooth radios. The issue only seems to happen when my phone is asleep and when it is happening, all I have to do is wake up the phone and it stops. I wonder if maybe the governor is causing the CPU to sleep too quickly after the kernel gets a wakelock from the Bluetooth stack. Oddly enough, the issue hasn't happened since I updated to KGW42R on the watch.
If you're still experiencing the issue, maybe try changing your CPU governor to performance (if supported by your kernel/ROM) just to see if you get any improvement.
Yep, experiencing this as well with my HTC M8 + Moto 360 on my Volvo.
I had intermittent stuttering issues with the M8 in the past, but now I could never get a flawless playback whenever I have the Moto 360 connected. Big problem..any solutions yet anyone?
Motorola probably has no idea about this problem. Can/does anyone know how to make them aware of this horrible bug?

I just contacted them about it in Live Chat and the person was completely dumbfounded, then cut me off. Going to try to call them tonight. Oddly, I didn't have the issue with My Nexus 4, but it did surface with my new Moto X, which was around the time of the most recent update to the 360.
I have the moto x and the OnePlus one and this darn issue happens on both phones. So frustrating!
Bad audio issues
I have the same issue with my new Moto X, Moto 360 while using my car audio. I do have a fitbit as well so that means three bluetooth devices while trying to stream audio. Even music that is downloaded on my phone has the same issues.
I have the exact same issue with my Moto X 2014! Extremely frustrating.
Solution..connect your phone via 3.5mm jack (wire/cable) to your vehicle audio, to free up the frequency/frequencies..

"Praise Jah" YOU people.!
Yeah, unfortunately that's not a solution at all. My car doesn't have a 3.5mm input for me to use and besides, the whole point of Bluetooth audio is not to have any wires.
I agree that the issue seems to be present on either downloaded or streamed music. Sometimes disabling and re-enabling Bluetooth on the phone will help, sometimes it won't. Often I won't have any trouble when driving to work in the morning but will have constant interruptions going home in the evening. Sometimes it's the other way round. There isn't really a consistent pattern.
I tried to call Motorola support yesterday but they were closed.
I didn't have any problem with bluetooth at first, but now my car audio skips at random times and then goes back to normal. Feels like the '90s all over again. Additionally, sometimes my calls through the car will sound like I am underwater. I disabled the HTC bluetooth low energy profiles on my phone in hopes this will resolve it. Will test and report back later. Hopefully it won't have any impact on my phone's battery life.
Newest version of Android Wear came to my Moto 360 yesterday, and I was in high hopes that it would resolve this issue, at least to some degree. With the bluetooth updates it seemed like they made some serious changes, but the issue has gotten even worse. I can barely get any audio now, the skips are no longer short, and are now just 1-2 seconds of silence. I reported this issue numerous times to Motorola, and they refuse to respond to me. This is a huge letdown, and had I not passed my 30 days, I would return the device.
Official response from Motorola forums.

"We've spent some time looking at this. The team feels it's a matter of overloading the BT capacity of the phone. There is simply a limit to the traffic it can handle, and the extra link is slowing it down. Not a very satisfactory answer, but this seems to me a case where the simplest explanation is probably the right one."
Anyone know if the new Bluetooth LE changes in Android 5.0 would possibly improve this?

Oh my god.
It's exactly the same issue I have!
I turn on my 360 in the morning and connect to my alpine car audio, 90% of the time no problems.
I leave the office at 5pm, the watch has been connected the whole day, I notice lags in audio playback like whenever a new song begins for the first 5-10 seconds.
When my 360 stays on over night I get this issue in the morning too.
Putting the 360 in airplane mode solves it - but turning airplane mode off brings the problem back.
Restarting car audio, moto 360 and oneplus one while driving is a pain but works...
I also noticed that the lags occur more often when I turn my wrist (just like you said).
When navigating to the settings menu on the 360 while playing music it totally messes up the sound until I turn the display off again.
My setup:
Alpine CDE-178BT
Moto 360 4.4W2
OnePlus One 4.4.4 (Update 38R) Stock Kernel / Franco Kernel - same **** on both kernels
A bit of google told me that the problem can occur with every bluetooth LE device (like fitbit wristbands)
I hope this will be fixed but don't really know what the problem is... Bluetooth stack in ROM? Moto 360?
So I've been having some problems in general with bluetooth performance. A couple of days ago I was trying to sync a wireless bluetooth speaker with my 5X and the 5X couldn't even find the speaker when the speaker was in pairing mode. My tablet and HTC ONE do not have problems finding the speaker. I finally got it pair after multiple attempts. I then launched Amazon music and tried to adjust the volume after audio was playing. I clicked the volume down button all the way to zero and the speaker was still quite loud. Clicking the volume up button didn't really do anything. The audio gets slightly louder, but it's not very discernible unless you're comparing the audio at 10% versus 60-70%. Anyone else having similar problems?

They changed the way volume adjustments work with Bluetooth devices.

For me, I noticed that I just need to control the volume on the device and not try to mess with it on the phone.

Thanks. It looks like this may indeed be a bug though, whether it's with the accessories or Android OS.
, there seems to be a bug in the feature's implementation on some Bluetooth accessories. What users are experiencing is an extremely loud volume, even at the lowest volume setting. With the slider moved all the way down, the volume remains too high, which makes the accessory unusable if you enjoy a more temperate sound. And remember, this is a unified volume setting, so even if you press the headset's Vol- button, nothing changes

When I paired with my speaker the music turned on so loud I nearly crapped my pants. Didn't even realize it was possible for the speaker to go that loud.

Not me. Everything working as designed. BT speaker paired just fine.
I'm having bluetooth issues - from day one and 6.01 doesn't help. My 5x often doesn't play through previously paired devices. It goes through the motions and shows a connection but no sound. I usually have to switch bluetooth off then back on again. Really annoying.
Hmmm, I haven't had a problem with the situation you described. I am currently having an issue over what audio is being pushed over bluetooth. In my car I am listening to some music via bluetooth, and I get a phone call during playback, I swipe right and answer the call, but I answered the call and my music resumes and I can't hear my call. Very odd but a consistent issue since the 6.0.1 update.
Since I accepted OREO onmy Nexus 5x, I also have BT issues both with my car multi-media and my earphones. I tried reboot the nexus and it did not help. I"ll try to repair the device.
Hello all,
I know there are a few threads already about bluetooth issues but mine may be unique in a sense.
When my Pixel 2 XL is connected to my JBL speaker or car, the bluetooth stutters a lot (sometimes cutting off sound for 2 seconds at a time) and after a while it just disconnects completely. Restarting my phone might temporarily fix it and I'm not sure what causes it to happen. One thing to note is that the first time this happened is when I set up Android Auto and I could not even use it because it would just disconnect every two seconds.
I'm not sure if Android Auto is causing the issues, I will uninstall it today and see if my problems still happen. In the meantime, any ideas about why this might be happening? Anyone else have some of the same issues?
Some more troubleshooting information:
*My phone is only paired with three devices (watch, speaker, car).
*I keep bluetooth on all day.
*Disconnecting bluetooth and reconnecting it doesn't fix the problem, only restarting seems to make it stop.
*When the issue is happening, no information about the song is showing up on my car's display like it usually does. And none of the car controls can change the song or pause it like usual.
Have the same issue too.
I have the same error with my Pixel 2 XL.
It stutters when I use my Bose quietcomfort 35 bluetooth headphones, and is annoying enough to be unusable. These headphones work fine with a couple different iPhones I tried it with.
The bluetooth on the phone works fine with my monster superstar bluetooth speaker.
I spoke with a google representative, and while on the phone with her I the music played through the headphones without skipping. As soon as the call ended, the music started skipping again. The rep was not able to help me.
It seems the Pixel 2 XL has a problem with some devices and is ok with others.

I have the same headphone never had an issue with the QC35's and the Pixel 2 XL, also my car audio does drop for about half a second or less every now and again. But generally it has been solid
Also had the problem with a headphones Airy of the brand Teufel here in Germany. After Oreo update to 8.1 I don't have this anymore. Excuse my not perfect english.
I have the same problem. If I am driving I turn my wifi off and the Bluetooth issue stops.
Seems like a trend. I noticed the same since March update
