BLUETOOTH - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone have any issues with Bluetooth on any 4.3 roms. i`ve tried most of them and my bluetooth doesnt sync correctly to my car. It will connected to my car but wont download the phonebook and the buttons on steering wheel wont hangup. On 4.2 roms everyone works fine.

Mine will only connect after a phone reboot. If I then drop connection, I have to reboot the phone.
After the first connection, THROW keeps trying to configure the connection type even though I turned that off in settings !

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?

[Q] Bluetooth Car Audio Issues

Hello fellow HTC One members/XDA enthusiasts!
I have owned many phones in the past few years and never had any issues pairing with bluetooth devices until now.
I have a Pioneer X910 in dash head unit in my car and briefly had the audio working (no on screen information) but then it stopped and when I hit play it started playing out of the phones speakers.
It does say that the phone is connected and on the phone itself it sees Pioneer Navi and also in the settings it shows audio enabled.
Now for the life of me I cannot get any music playing over BT in my car. I have yet to try phone calls with it.
BTW I have my phone rooted with OrDroid on it.
Has anyone had this problem or know the solution? I can play music on my BT speaker in my house but not on my Pioneer X910
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
No one is having this issue?
I may have to return this phone if this feature doesn't work...
Also my work email is not being "Pushed" through EAS....really frustrated with such a beautiful phone...
Which ordroid version are you working on?
HTC tweaked some bluetooth things during 1.29.401.5, and every Update some problems disappear...

I'm on OrDroid 3.0.0
I un-paired the device today and re-paired, started to work for a few seconds, shut the screen off, it stopped working and now won't play through the speakers anymore.
BTW I'm using N7 music player

I had a similar issue pairing my old EVO 4G with my Ford Sync system via blue tooth. Don't know if this is related but the issue I had was when Sync tried to download my contacts/address book it would choke. Turned out Sync couldn't handle merged contacts. If your Pioneer is trying to download your contacts try disabling it.
still not working. i am now using trickdroid 5.1.0 and it does the same thing.
very frustrating
anyone else having these issues?

Sorry to see that your going through trouble, I also have trickdroid 5.1.0 and it works flawlessly with my car's bluetooth connection.
i have an alpine detachable with bluetooth.
have you tried reinstalling the rom with a full wipe?

Works fine with my Pioneer AVH 2400BT, even displays the Track Info on the head unit. I did notice the audio breaking up when using Tom Tom and listening to music at the same time.
Have you tried disabling wifi on the phone?

Wifi is off.
Maybe I need to try the Revolution HD ROM?

Revolution HD ROM might be worth a try, maybe it has a more up to date version of Blue Tooth. Is your Pioneer on the latest firmware? If not it might be worth updating it too.

I too found that my BT headset doesn't connect to my phone properly sometimes. In the phone settings it shows the headset is connected but my Plantronics headset should play a voice prompt saying "Phone 1 connected" but it doesn't. And when I call someone, all voices are through the phone speaker instead of the headset even if I select BT in phone app. I had to reboot the phone to make it work again.
This happen in both 244 and 67 firmware and it happens only occasionally.
perhaps the device needs to be shown for being paired again ?

No in that situation, unpair and pair again don't work. I can only recover it by rebooting the phone.
weird, I didn't use BT yet, so I can't confirm this issue on my side. I'll do some tests with my BT keyboard...
Yp only reboot fixes it

I have another BT music receiver but it never have problem with the ZR. It's just the BT headset which doesn't play well with it sometimes.
maybe wifi may interfere with BT if BT emits lowly. tried turning off wifi of your modem?
