Issue solved!!! - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

thanks XDA

Yes, I have had this happen several times with or without motorokr SD-HD headset connected. Has not been permanent, but has required recalling. At first thought connection, then bluetooth hangup. No clue really, but you are not alone.

[Q] Bluetooth headset connection problem (solved by disabling WiFi)

Hi, I do know that there been reported quite a few problems with Galaxies bluetooth.
I have Motorolla HT820 headset. It connects without any problems. Starts playing music. However, every odd 30 (sometimes more) seconds it stops playing music for some 0.5-1 seconds.
Checked that headset works okay with other phones, so its problem in phone.
Anyone has similar problems, or it works for them without problem (eg. maybe other variants of galaxy s work better)?
Turn off WIFI. It is a common Android problem.

Seriously? Thats it? I spent god knows how long trying to fix it, used different firmwares, searched in google quite a lot (obviously not good enough, as I thought its a galaxy only issue)... God android sux in some things...
Thanks, mate!
PS. Topic can be closed.
EDIT: After testing a few minutes it appears thats it is enough to just switch off - switch on WiFi to fix it (I assume for the duration of one session).

Bluetooth driver from ROM older than JPY?

Hi guys,
does someone know, if it is possible to flash an older bluetooth driver than the one in firmware JPY? Although the speed of JPY-ROMs is great, I'm getting serious bluetooth disconnects from my car audio system. This didn't happen with previous ROMs (apart from JPX, which had the same issues). If it is possible, where would I find this driver?
Hi,
Same problem for me with Mercedes rSAP bluetooth.
+1
serious connection problem too with headset bt.
Ok, good to see, that I'm not alone. There seems to be some serious issue with the bluetooth drivers in JPY. Now, we need to find a solution. I think, if flashing Wifi drivers from older ROMS is possible (which is recommended because of bugs in the Wifi driver of JPY), the same should be possible for bluetooth drivers.
+1 same problem with Android 2.2.1 and never before with 2.2 on my Nissan bluetooth connect. Just tried to go back to JPO and no bug at all
I have BT problems with Darkys 8.0 and MySpace CarKit. I think it is a problem with JPY becouse with JPX i had no problems.
But its very funny. The problems are there and sometimes it works verry good and another day i had problems and it disconnect every times after few seconds.

So, some people seem to have problems since JPY, which didn't exist before. Does nobody have a solution?
Same problem here with JPY and Parrot I9100, random disconnects, no problems at all before. I really hope for a solution...
I also seem to have this problem. Only way to get it to stay connected is to turn off bluetooth and re-enable it on the phone.

I also have a Parrot system BTW, but the I9200.
Just thought I'd link this issue to mine which has a lot of similarities. Oh, and go ahead and check the link to a common BT bug in Android<->Car BT systems.

Sounds like my problem: Connection drops after a few seconds. Strange thing is: when I enter the car at my home adress, the connection stays. However, whenever I enter the car at my work adress, connection drops after a few seconds. Only difference I know: at home HDSPA is available, while at work, it is not. There is apprently something weird about the wireless module in JPY.
[SGS with JPY]
I don't get permanent disconnects, but the audio drops off for a second or two at random intervals. I can't be 100% sure, but I think I noticed it being less of a problem when I disabled Packet Data and also killed any processes that might be making data connections.
Still this problems with my bluetooth, no one has an Eclair bluetooth driver plz ???
I tried JS3 yesterday, but it didn't help. Bluetooth is still behaving strange.

Thanks for checking that. Is there any way to enable debug logging for Bluetooth within the OS itself? The Bluetooth options in Settings are pretty minimal.
Sorry, I just found out about ADB. I'll run the logger while connected to the car hands-free later on.

Yeah, please post your results. I'm curious about the source of the problem.

Whenever Wifi is enabled while I'm connected to my car audio via Bluetooth, I get these frequent periods of silence (about 2-3 seconds each) but no actual disconnects. Each problem correlates to one of these entries in the logs.
E/wpa_supplicant( 9645): No suitable AP found.
I/wpa_supplicant( 9645): CTRL-EVENT-NO-CONNECTION
E/wpa_supplicant( 9645): timeout (32)
E/wpa_supplicant( 9645): wpa_s->scan_interval (32)
W/wpa_supplicant( 9645): scan interval : value of timeout (32)
It happens more frequently when driving through built-up areas where there are a lot of wireless APs. Once I disable Wi-fi, the problem goes away. The problem doesn't occur at all when I use regular Bluetooth headphones inside my house, so I'm guessing it's something to do with the BT profile used for hands-free.
I'm not sure whether or not 3G packet data causes the same issue, but I suspect it might. I'll try more tests it in the car tomorrow and will get more detailed/complete logs.
Interesting. Keep us updated about your findings.

i have the same problem as some other people do as well. There's no actual fix, afaik, although the gingerbread roms seemed to have fixed it for me.
You can ask in the appropriate Q&A for your ROM.

in his defense - although I could be wrong, I found that it has nothing to do with one particular rom. I had this problem on stock eclair and many of the custom froyo roms. Once I ran GB, the bluetooth was more reliable.
I'm having the same issue with stock 2.2.
I found a quicker method to fix it.
I downloaded a Bluetooth widget that toggles Bluetooth on and off - this seems to reconnect with my Jeep after the toggle:
com.curvefish.widgets.bluetoothonoff
I'm sure there are a ton of widgets out there; but, you may want to give that a try!
Thanks,
Shawn
I also ran into this as after chatting with Samsung support it turns out that the Galaxy line is set to never auto connect to any bt device even if the connection was already there.
I had trouble with disconnections from my car deck (jvc kw-xr810) when it was trying to share contacts. Once I set the phone to deny contact sharing and set up a separate phone book in the deck, it connects perfectly and never drops.
It's not a perfect solution if you want your whole address book access accessible from the car however.

I use tasker for this. I have a task setup that as soon as I turn my car off and BT disconnects, toggle BT off and back on. I noticed that as long as BT is toggled off and back on, it will connect and hold it the next time I use it.
although, I have since turned that task off because GB roms seemed to have fixed the BT issues with my car. I rarely have this problem since switching to gingerbread.
Captivate stock 2.2 intermittent bluetooth problems
I have a stock Captivate with 2.2 android and I'm using a Motorola S10-HD headset to listen to music while I'm at work.
The bluetooth will randomly disconnect causing the music to pause. Sometimes it will reconnect on it's own several seconds later and I am able to continue listening by clicking the play button on the headset. If it doesn't reconnect on it's own then I have to turn off bluetooth on the phone and turn it back on. This will cause it to reconnect but the problem may occur again.
I have switched to listening to music on my Galaxy Tab 10.1 and haven't had any problems so it must be the phone.
Is there anything that will correct the problem?
Is this a defect with my phone or just a design problem with all Captivate phones?

Bluetooth not working/MMS issues

I have not been able to get the bluetooth turned on since I got this damn thing. also the MMS will not send unless I turn off my WiFi. wtf are HTC and ATT gettin at?
Anyone else have any similar issues?
I use Bluetooth every day; using both car stereo bluetooth and bluetooth headphones at work. I've had zero problems making connections to devices:
- Infinity Car Stereo
- No-Name BT Headphones
- Bose Speakers
- Motorola MetaWatch
What specific device are you trying to connect to via Bluetooth?
I've haven't had any problems sending/receiving MMS messages; but I don't send many of them.

I've noticed MMS will time out when WiFi is connected. also Bluetooth just fails to turn on at all. I never had an issue with any Android device like this.
Bluetooth turns on as it should for me, although I haven't tried pairing with anything. So that may be of no help to you.
But on my device, MMS works with Wi-Fi enabled and connected.
Sorry to give you the typical customer service request, but have you tried a full factory reset?
I think it has something to do with the temp root. Before running temp root all works fine.. after temp root is when it all goes to ****.

just curious.. but have you rebooted your phone yet? I have no issues with Bluetooth, and have done the temp root, but i also rebooted when i was done doing what i needed with temp root. From what i understand, the zerg rush they use for temp root can kinda trash a few things and it gets fixed upon reboot.

Yes I have.. at the moment though bluetooth is needed to communicate with my laptop. I am pulling some system files from the phone and decompiling them. I found a few interesting things already. I want to know why the phone repairs the directories after deleting or removing system apps.

Blue tooth connection issues?

Hey guys,
My tmobile one wont auto connect to my cars stereo. It will pair but then it wont automatically connect when I turn the car on. Even when I force connection in the menu it sometimes wont connect and if it does it takes forever.
I have tried blue tooth auto connect from the play store and that doesn't really help.
This has been happening since I got the phone and have tried a variety of roms. My nexus 4 never had this issue.
Any way to fix it? Anyone have the same problem?
If anyone is curious I drive a Subaru WRX.
I have similar issue connecting to eclipse avn. I didn't have any issues before with defy and nexus s. Sometimes it connects fine though not sure where the problem is. Thanks

Try to update your bluetooth car stereo software if applicable. I had same problem with my Alpine Headset. Most likely, problem is your headset, not your phone.
I had this issue at one point. I had to factory reset the handset. After I did that, I repaired and it connected automatically from then on out.
I had this issue with my Blue&Me system in my car, and to fix it, I have to reset and delete my user profile on the car.
After, I re-pair my phone and everything is good to go. Strangely, I need to do that every time I reset my Bluetooth preferences in my phone. (from Rom updates, etc.)
Give it a try.
