Bluetooth Headset dropping mid call - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is makiing me pull my hair out
My Phone a Galaxy Note 1 with JellyBeans Stock update rooted phone, and my headset is the Jabra Clipper
The issue is that during calls the Bluetooth connection would drop, not the call, just the BT connection, and I can hear the caller through the phone, If I disconnect the Bluetooth headset through the icon on the call screen and connected again, the sound returns through the BT headset, only to drop again after a few seconds.
This behaviour has happened with other BT audio devices but with varying frequencies.
I have gone through MANY MANY forums and posts, found several other people complainig about this on different headsets and different devices, which leads me to believe that it could be an Android issue, maybe not a sizable sample but to us who suffer from it, it is very very frustrating.
Needless to say, I have tried EVERYTHING, from unparing, reparing, testing the BT headset on different phones etc.
I HOPE that someone out there could help me with this issue, this is a desperate call for help :crying::crying:

Bluetooth Question

I have a question regarding bluetooth.
I have an sony HBH-DS980 that works great for music playback on my tytn ii.
The problem i have with it is that when the music is playing and a receive a phone call it notifies me and i answer the call. After the call is over the bluetooth link seems to drop and will no reconnect untill i turn the headset off and on.
Is there a way to make the headset go back to music playing and not drop link automatically?

Not having experience of this unit this may be down to the individual headset and I hope some others will come in with experience of this.
Does the headset support both Headset and Wireless Stereo profile?
If it does not, the function may not be supported. I use a Promate PM-2600 and it supports both and when I have selected Wireless Stereo (this has to be done manually!) it works without problem when answering a call and passing back to music or video play.
Hope someone with information on this particular unit gets back to you.

Hi,
I own a Sony HBH-DS980 too, and experiencing the same problem Linxus40's having, but on my 8925 Tilt, of which is essentially the same phone as Linxus40's HTC Tynii .
It's very frustrating having to reboot the HBH-DS980 & re-press the play button to re-establish the bt connection after completion of every incoming call. It's s my understanding that the Sony HBH-DS980 supports both wireless headset & the wireless stereo profile, as I've got no problem placing & receiving unlimited bt calls without disconnection when I'm not listening to music. This said, I find the HBH-DS980's bt audio 'sound quality' fantastic thru the 8925 Tilt.
btw: I've got PocketMusic 5 and PocketPlayer 3.51 on my Tilt, but experience significantly better sound (audio quality) when my music is played via PocketMusic compared to PocketPlayer. Curious if any body else here notices this too.
Ok, any other Sony HBH-DS908 bluetooth headset owners experiencing the dropped bluetooth connection problem Linuxus40 and I are experiencing? Any advice on how the problem can be corrected?
Thanks in advance.

I'm facing the same issue as well! Tried numerous hard resets and fixes you would have thought imaginable! Unfortunately the problem is still existent and it is freaking irritating when you have to press the play button to repair the headset. Worst still - when the music starts playing through the speaker after a call, everyone starts to look at you like you are some moron.
I do really hope there is a way to resolve the problem. Any new fixes i can try???
Senior members? Any help?

I have this exact same problem on my Sony Ericsson HBH-DS220.
The bluetooth will disconnect after hanging up a phone call. I don't press anything on the headset, I wait for the other person to hang up. When it hangs up, it immediately disconnects the bluetooth headset.
Annoying!
Probably a problem with the bluetooth stack then. The stack is already known to be very buggy and have problems with lots of Bluetooth devices. Luckily, unlike the graphics card, it looks like HTC will be releasing a fixed Bluetooth stack at some point in the future. In the mean time, you are probably out of luck.
Bluetooth connection problem also with Tilt
I have a Plantronics 510 BT earpiece that for no discernible reason is connected one minute and gone the next too. I haven't been able to determine any combination of actions, such as ending a call as the culprit. I always have to make the connection manually between the earpiece and the Tilt also - it never links automatically when I turn the earpiece on like it did with my Treo 650. I've had this Tilt for 3 days and this is probably going to be a show stopper and make me return it to at&t before the eval period in spite of everything else good about the phone. I also have a Plantronics Pulsar 590 stereo headset that I haven't experimented enough with yet to know if the connection is as flaky. But the bottom line is - I'll be damned if I'm going to try to fiddle with establishing a connection and all the steps it can take while I'm driving down the road!

how to mute speaker notifications when connected to bluetooth

Good day,
I have done a bit of searching on this topic and have not found an answer to a rather surprising issue.
I just got my GNote and have paired it with my Voyager Pro+ AD2P BT headset.
Much to my surprise even though calls and VLingo are routed to my BT headset I come to discover that event notifications are sent to BOTH the GNote's speaker AND my BT headset (with a slight delay\echo as a result).
This to me is not how it should be. All my other phones would totally mute the speaker and redirect ALL sounds to the connected headset automatically, whether it was WM, iPhone, whatever.
In my searches I see others have had the same issues with Android phones.
Am I missing something here?
Is this happening to other GNote owners, be it wired headsets or with BT headsets?
Is there an App that corrects this issue?
Is this a basic Android OS oversight?
I am shocked and can only imagine that I will have to remember to put myphone into silent mode each time I want to use my BT headset and not have notificationscome over the built in speaker. I have yet to try this as I fear it will also silence the notifications sent to my BT headset.
Curious to hear from others on this matter.
Thanks,

[Q] Phone calls routed to internal speaker on wired or bluetooth headset.

Hi everybody. I have just got my new HTC One and I am really loving it. But I seem to have run into a major problem which I couldn't solve despite trying everything. Whenever I receive or dial a phone call while using a wired headset or bluetooth headset, I can hear the sound in the headset for a couple of seconds but then the call is routed by default to the internal speakers and mic. All this while the phone shows that the output is going to the headset. If I change it to the internal speaker and back again to the headset (wired or bluetooth), everything works normally and I can talk and hear through the headset. This problem only occurs with phone calls and I am able to listen to the music through headsets normally without any sound quality issue. I have searched on various internet forums but all in vain. A few more people were having this problem but no solution was in sight. I thought may be an upgrade would solve this problem but alas even after upgrading to the latest 4.3 update, the problems remains. Hope somebody here can help me with this problem.

Bluetooth spuriously disconnecting when starting a call

Has anyone noticed that sometimes that your BT headset will disconnect spurious when starting call. Or if you manually reconnect during a call, that the headset will drop BT connection again(sometimes, several times).
I noticed this just a few times during Lollypop, but now that we've gotten Marshmallow that these disconnections are starting to happen more frequently.
I did notice at first that stopping/starting BT on the GN5 "helped", at least temporarily. Now, it happens a lot more frequently.
I've tried several different headsets, and my headsets along with my computer, and the headset doesn't disconnect from it.
Just trying to gauge if this is just my GN5, or if others have been experiencing this as well.
Thanks.

BT headset random disconnect

Hi
I have a P30 Pro, EMUI 9.1 .0.193 and I'm experiencing random disconnect of my BT headset during the call. I had a Voyager Legend and now a Jabra Supreme UC but the problem is still present.
Basically, during a phone call, randomly, the BT headset disconnect and the call is routed to the phone, or to another BT device.
The phone is very close to the headset to I don't think it is a problem of distance.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Thanks
Stefano
Yes, mine does the same with different headsets so I believe it is the phone, not the headset. I have to reboot my phone every week because Bluetooth will connect to my headset but only for calls, not for audio.

I'm trying to understand if there is something around that could generate the problem... Random disconnections occur only when I'm at home at my desk, I have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse connected to the PC, probably there is interference. I never had disconnections when I'm outdoor or in the car...
I will try to pay more attention to this fact, maybe you can do the same to see any possible relationship of the problem with the sourrender environment.
