Pixel C will not see official keyboard - Pixel C Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My device fell off an aeroplane seat-back table and the keyboard stopped working (the official Bluetooth, magnetic Pixel C keyboard). No problem I thought, I'll just buy another as I know they're not the most robust. I removed the old one from Bluetooth devices but I cannot get the new one to pair with the Pixel C. It does not appear at all when I scan for new Bluetooth devices. Here's what's weird:
I have successfully paired the keyboard to an Android phone and an iPhone so I know the keyboard works fine
I have successfully paired other devices (phones, headphones, smart speaker) with the Pixel C so I know Bluetooth pairing works on the Pixel C
I have tried the 'left-shift + P + A + I + R' reset on the keyboard. I have factory reset my Pixel C. I have tried using Bluetooth "force-pair" apps from Google Play. No matter what I do it will not see the keyboard. My next step is to root and re-flash the Pixel C with a new ROM but that's pretty drastic. Before I go down this route has anybody seen anything like this before and have any suggestions?

Same here man, tried on the new Lineage and now on the new Arrow OS, that's what displayed but then in bluetooth settings, nothing.

I am starting to think the keyboard is faulty ? How did you try it on other devices ?

[Q] Bluetooth enabled phone AS headset and input device

Hi, I have the Blackberry Bold 9700 running on OS v5.0.0.862 bundle 1446 platform 5.1.0.175.
I would like to use it as a headset and input device for my android tablet Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) LTE edition running android Jellybean 4.3.
I have only 1 SIM card with call+data plan and have decided to place it in the tablet. Hence my blackberry is without a sim card.
I would like the tablet to push calls and sms text messages (if possible also emails) to the blackberry phone so that I can answer them on the phone without touching the tablet. As there is no sim card in the phone, I would like the connection to be via bluetooth.
I would also like my Bold 9700 to be an input device (keyboard) to type emails/documents on my tablet.
Please advise on how to go about the above. Thanks.
P.S. Tablet talk does not work on Blackberry. I think it has to do with bluetooth's profiles but got lost somewhere on bluetooth's HID profile and do not know how to sync them on both devices.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Did you mean something like this ?

New Note 3, couple issues

So, I love this phone and hate it at the same time.
First off, just at random, the BT, Wi-Fi or GPS will just turn off. Has not happened for a couple days, nothing has really changed.
Now the big issues. These are driving me nuts....
I have a Pyle PLDN74BTi (don't laugh, it was dirt cheap) and it supports Bluetooth audio and tagging and speakerphone from a BT phone. All the features work except the tagging. I cannot get BT to display the audio info or the phone info.
Second, I just bought an iBolt xProDockX. When I dock it, the phone recognizes its docked, but it will not open the doc app upon dock. I look in the default apps, and the dock isn't even listed. I purchased Car Home Ultra and it wont auto open, I even install the dock&drive app from iBolt and it wont auto open upon docking either.
Anyone else having these stupid issues with their phone? I have cleared all the apps, and I have restarted the phone. No Dice.
You posted this in the S3 forum, not the Note 3... I doubt you will get any help here

FM Radio and Bluetooth audio simultaneously?

I bought a Android head unit and usb-dongle, as an affordable way to run wireless Apple CarPlay. The headunit is a 'Radio KKXXX T1' running Android 8.1. The dongle is from the company Carlink in China.
CarPlay works by starting the app AutoKit which came with the dongle. It communicates over Bluetooth and Wifi with my iPhone.
Most is fine, however I can't seem to listen to the FM-radio in the headunit simultaneously with audio from Google Maps or Apple Maps. So when the FM-radio is playing, the voice directions are not audible. When voice directions are audible, it kills the FM-radio permanently.
I can only play the FM-radio solo, or Google Maps audio solo, but not both at the same time.
Is there a solution to this problem?

you might have to go into factory settings iirc
Try setting one of those navigation apps to the default navigator and set Android to use the supplied TTS (Pico TTS?) as default for the system. Set navigation sound options to Mixing.
Hopefully this will allow the default navigation app to work with the radio on.

Question Wireless display/ screen cast

My p6p will not pick up my TVs built in wireless display or even my Roku, do pixel phones only detect chrome casts? My Samsung is able to pick it all up weird.
All the playstore apps I have tried don't work either
No luck here either. I have a 2020 LG CX TV. I assume it might work with any brand that uses Android TV (or an addon Android TV, similar to Chromecast). I've successfully used apps such as AirDroid to mirror to my computer, which is also hooked up to my TV. They have several related apps, several of which might do what you need. https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=SAND+STUDIO&hl=en
In the past, I've also successfully used TeamViewer - again to mirror on the computer. You have to do it locally over Wi-Fi, though, remote via mobile data didn't work for me on any phone.

Some non-Android TVs do accept Google-style casting or allow the YouTube app to act as a middle man for content-specific casting. I know my LG webOS one allows the latter. BubbleUPnP and LocalCast are similar in that regard.
But mirroring? That's harder with a Pixel.
I remember in the past there were Magisk modules to enable the checkbox for Miracast, but it doesn't actually work or can even cause bootloops.

Android unit issues - px6?

I recently got an android unit for my BMW X3.
Took a bit of figuring out how to connect it all as I purchased it off someone’s hands and it came with no instructions.
Finally managed to get the unit to power on but….that’s about it.
I believe the seller told me it’s px6 unit with 4gb or ram - 64
But looking in settings (see attached) I think it shows 2-32?
Issues I’m having are as follows:
- owner stated it has the apple car play however it only has the mirroring app that only displays grey screen with my iPhone 13
-thought of getting the usb apple CarPlay bundle but the usb cable - does not work. Tried it with charging cables, differently formatted usb sticks, nothing. No power comes through them + usb is greyed out in the settings on the unit.
-the Bluetooth of the unit is not working either. Keeps showing a screen saying “initialising……” seems like it’s stuck in an infinite loop.
-no sound coming through that unit either. Tried connecting the aux out to the oem console (there are 2 outs) none of them send any signal.
Is there any hope in here?
