Bluetooth call dropping? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I have been having problems with Bluetooth dropping in the middle of a call while in the car and I finally figured out what the issue is. Unfortunately, turning off power saver resolved the issue of calls dropping and the random popping noise. This worked on 4.1.2 stock and 4.2.2 trickdroid. The battery hasn't been terribly impacted. As of now I have 50% battery after a full day of usage. Hope this helps anyone else having the same problem

Weird problem: HTC One M7 automatically dial when using regular earphones/headphones

I've had my HTC One M7 for almost 10 months now and i haven't encountered any issues except for one thing which has been bugging me for a long time... Whenever i got an earphone/headphone plugged into the audio jack (i tried different kinds, all without mics/volume control, including ipod earphones and the original HTC One M7 earphones from the retail box), my HTC One M7 automatically dials the last contact i called in my phone log and it appears to do this randomly. I have been apologizing to my friends and relatives more than a few times in the past months but recently my call log showed automatic calls at 3AM to some of my friends since i fell asleep listening to music, which is really embarrassing since they are my co-workers and i had to explain to them about my phone issue, so they blocked my number for waking them up at night. :silly: I can't blame them but can someone please suggest a solution?
Also, i noticed that the issue is not restricted to automatic redials... it also causes my music to stop or start playing randomly whenever i have an earphone plugged into the phone. I'm using the HTC music app so i'm not sure if using another music app fixes this problem?
I have been researching about this problem and at first i thought it might be an issue with my phone in particular or the custom ROM that i am using (it's the latest ARHD which is pretty stable among all ROMs) but then i discovered that this is an HTC hardware issue which has plagued most of their phones. The problem has not been fixed with the M7, which is very sad since the M7 turned things around for HTC. It happens whenever the earphone jack gets nudged or receives a tiny shock which is enough to cause the wiring to short and act crazy!
I found a software solution although i am not sure if this will fix it.
Headset Button Controller

What are the optimal settings to use in that app to prevent this problem? Has anyone tried it?
This problem is incredibly annoying. Can someone please suggest a reliable and permanent solution? I don't want to get rid of my M7... but i will have to, if this problem cannot be fixed correctly and permanently.
There is apparently a free (and better?) app called Headset Blocker

But the problem with that app is the restricted support for Android 1.5 - 3.2 so it will not support Jelly Bean nor Kitkat.
Headset is not okay try to clean it with a toothbrush.

Sense 6 bugs

Hi everyone, I 've just updated my HTC one to 4.4.2 / sense 6 and I have noticed a serious bug. During the day in some of my calls I cannot hear anything, and by that I mean that I can't even hear the calling sound when I make a call. After three tries everything back to normal. Does anyone else have this problem?
Also when I turn on data and GPS my phone gets extremely hot! This was a problem and before the update and I wish that they would fix it... That's all so far
Thanks!

The call thing happened to me too

Speaker Volume Changing

Speaker Volume starts loud then decreases. This happens when playing any media through speakers. I've tried different roms and the issue continues to persist. Has anyone else had this problem. Any feedback or solution would be greatly appreciated.

its a mostly aosp bug, you are missing files. itll be there until your roms fix the issue.
In having the same issue.
This occurs on stock and custom roms so if it's a bug then it's effecting stock too.
Just got my phone and i have the same sad issue.... When i play music through the speakers and turn the vol all the way up its loud then immediately fades to low volumes.
I cannot get a constant play of any media at full volume
I am completely stock unrooted
Any solutions? Or should I send this thing back?

do you know how to fix that ? any link to a commit or sth. ? building omnirom for myself, and i wasn't able to figure the problem out...
I have the same issue on CM12. Couldn't comment on stock as I used it for all of 10 mins.
Seems there is some kind of audio normalization service running in the background. Doing a pretty crappy job of it.
Software issue it seems. I'm surprised there haven't been more reports of this. Its getting quite annoying. Finally I have front facing speakers on my phone and what does it do? Lowers the volume to half.

if u can identify the service, cant we just shut it down or prevent it from running which does this horrible stuff
also I have noticed it happens at lower battery level not when its more than 50%
Noticed it today for the first time while playing a game

Just had this freaky thing happen to me today, for the first time since I've had the phone which I have had for over 2 months now. Stock and unrooted. It did not do it to me before today that I ever noticed so I don't know what to make of it. But I hope it may be software related but who knows.
I ended up RMA'ing my device and the new one doesn't do this on the stock ROM or third party (tested SlimLP) so I am thinking it might be more of a hardware issue. Will check to see if my 64GB MB does this as well, but so far the replacement phone has fixed this annoying issue and volume stays the same while playing youtube video's / music.
RMA was painless dealing with Motorola direct, even though I bought the phone through AT&T, and with Advanced RMA it only took over the weekend (RMA started on Friday afternoon) and the device showed up today. Couldn't have been more pleased with the ease of this.
Try viper 4 android. It fixed my volume issue.

I thought I was imagining this when it happened a few times, then I was blaming poor quality music streams but evidently there is an issue. It also happens occasionally with my headphones.

Did anyone find a fix for this? Does viper for android work??

I just bought a Nexus 6 - hope it doesn't have this problem.
I currently have this issue, volume is dropping more than 50% after like 2 seconds at full volume. From what I could read from all over the forums, it really looks like a hardware issue, it's pretty random. Guess my N6 is going back to my carrier as soon as I can get to them when they're open!

[Q] Bluetooth headphones have gone quiet

Hi
I purchased some Trendwoo Bluetooth headphones recently and I've just started having issues with them on my Moto X where the volume level of has gone really quiet. I've tried going into sound settings and making sure all levels are up full and have also tried disconnecting my Moto 360 watch in case it was causing some sort of issue, but nothing makes any difference. I know its an issue with the phone as the headphones work fine on my Samsung Tab S. I've also tried switching the phone from WiFi to 4G in case this was interfering with the Bluetooth connection, but again no joy.
If anyone has any ideas its much appreciated!
Fixed it. In the end just forgot and repaired the headphones and the volume went back to normal. Should always remember first thing to try is turning it off and on again!
