I play audiobooks through my Tab S2 and hook it up to my vehicle speakers via Bluetooth. Every time I start it up I must go through the checking off the earphone (which I am not even using) loudness warning and then increasing the volume to make it usable in my vehicle. This is awkward while driving. And now there is another new warning that apparently came with the latest update: it won't go to full brightness without me checking off the brightness warning first. Is there a way to get rid of these new annoyances?
On stock 6.0.1 it will ask you once and you can turn it off if need be.

I have Android version 7.0. It didn't ask me. How do I make it ask me so I can turn it off?
I honestly do not know. Maybe you'd need to disable some service..

I'm heavily regretting installing this update.
The phone is overheating after minimal use, there is no tap to wake, the two drop menus severely annoys me, and I really can't tell any speed differences.

Bluetooth is a load of s#!t, much worse than before.
I use it in my car, so I only switch it on when I'm driving.
The Bluetooth toggle option now takes longer to get to; a hassle when you just wanna get going.
So, I figure I'd make use of the Quick Throw widget on the lock screen. What a joke! You have to swipe down on the widget to first expand it, then tap on it, then input your screen lock unlock pattern (or equivalent). That then turns on WiFi and Bluetooth, and it searches for your saved paired devices. Seems to take longer to connect, too.
Last time I used it, though, I had to manually select my car for it to connect. When it finally did, I soon realised that for whatever reason my music was playing in order instead of shuffled (via the Walkman app), as I had it when I last played my music (after the update).
Also, whenever a notification came through (from Facebook), the music stopped completely. I had to press the play button on my car twice (as the first time registered as "pausing" the music, even though it had already stopped), and then when the song started playing once more, it was back at the beginning again!
Oh, and when I finish driving now (meaning my car is not running, along with its Bluetooth), the damn music continues to play, making me have to manually turn it off.
Argh. Kinda regretting updating, but it's early days and so I'm hopeful that I can find some workarounds.

And what about the re-mount reboot fix what would happen to it in the KitKat Update? This would do a bootloop for Link2Sd and folder mount users
And About rooting how will we root ? Will the CM Kernel work with the super SU zip?
There are many questions I can'T answer
I don't know if my comment is effective against this issue, but, just in case you guys don't have any idea about this
A Bit of A Problem, I Think
Why do we always get less features?
First, Sony decides to cut "Profiles" feature in 4.3. Then we discover "App-ops" is missing too.
And now no ART for 4.4. Add to that, the SD card restrictions!
Why Sony?
This is really driving me crazy. Every time I reboot the bluetooth volume gets reset to halfway. And when I go to turn it up, I have to click through a warning about listening at high volumes. I listen to music through bluetooth every time I get in my car. I like to reboot daily just to keep the OS fresh. So every day I get in my car, I have to go through these steps. Is there any way to get the volume to stay where you left it through rebooting? It seems like the ringer volume does recall previous settings, but not bluetooth.
I have had this same issue. It is pretty annoying and I have yet to find another way around this after a reboot.
I will say that rebooting the phone daily really shouldn't be necessary. Since android is based off of Linux it does not require regular reboots to keep it "fresh". I will usually go through and kill any intensive apps (games, google maps, etc.) that may be suspended in the background but that's all that should be needed.
Driving me crazy for a year!
I agree with you totally. This has been bugging me since I got my 2013 Maxx (why couldn't they come up with a new name for the 2014 International? Now whenever we say Maxx we have to specify which one we're talking about.). There should be some way to disable the volume warning. I like to reboot after recharging and if I update several apps. Not everyday, but if I charge and update say, 8 or 9 apps I just like to reboot to reset everything (and sometimes with an update icons change, etc). Then, when I get in my car or use my Bluetooth headphones I have to reconfigure volume. Completely useless. I think I'm perfectly capable of deciding which volume is safe for me. At least give me the option of a Do Not Show again check box...
The Setup
Moto X (2013)
Android 4.4.4 (unrooted)
Network: Republic Wireless
The Story
It all started a couple of days ago, I lost my phone while at work, I logged onto the Motorola website, remote locked the phone, remotely left a message on the phone with my contact info, and then I made the phone ring remotely to bring it to attention of passers nearby. Shortly after I recovered my phone, I went to the settings and unlocked the phone as that is my prefered setting.
The Problem
Since I got the phone back I've noticed a problem with bluetooth and headphone audio and unusual behavior when unlocking the phone. 1st, when I unlock the phone it makes a noise, and it is the same sound that is used to indicate volume level when you raise or lower volume with the volume buttons, it no longer makes the "click" sound upon unlock. 2nd, whenever I listen to music, via bluetooth or headphones, and if i unlock the phone the audio switches over to the phones internal speakers, but the phone still thinks it is playing audio out of the bluetooth speaker or headphone. In order to get back on the bluetooth speaker I have to dissconect from the speaker and reconnect and for headphones I just to unplug and plug back in.
What I have tried
I have tried turning on and off my phone, Unpairing and reparing my device. I tried to go into my settings, find the bluetooth app and wipe the memory and disable and enable the app, but I could not successfully do that. Searched google and XDA for an answers but I can not find any results that I think resemble my problem. Please help oh great wise and powerful 1337 lords.
Edit* Something else I forgot to mention, another problem is now my phone will not stay in silent or vibrate, I can put it in those modes but as soon as I unlock it, the volume comes back on.
Try Settings > Sounds > Screen Lock Sound.
See if that is checked, or unchecked, toggle a few times and see if that helps?

It seems like something with the Moto Remote services might be interfering. Did you try going in and disabling the stuff on the website? Or disable to Moto app as an administrator in the settings so it stops overriding things? Seems like things are stuck in whatever the Moto app is trying to do if it thinks it's still lost?

The moto remote services theory has been in the back of my mind, I'll have to explore the website to see if there is an option to disable or reset the service. As far as disabling the moto app as an admin, is there something special I have to do in order the disable apps as in admin? I was under the impression that anything I did on my phone was done as an admin.

In Settings > Security > Device Administrators there should be a list of apps that are activated as admins. Try turning the Moto one off. Might be called Local Wipe Policy maybe?
Problem solved
So I was able to fix the problem!!!
What I did was log onto the motorola website used to track my phone. I made the phone ring ring from the website tracker. After I unlock the phone, I noticed that my phone stopped making the volume adjustment noise upon unlock. My phone is now properly playing bluetooth and headphone audio with out issue now. Thanks for suggesting that I go to the motorola website!
I have a Nexus 6 running Benzo ROM (5.1.1) and I have a GPS Nuvi 3580 bluetooth-enabled which I want to use to make calls while driving. I have added this device to my trusted devices so my phone unlocks as soon as it connected to it.
If my phone screen is on, then I'm able to call anyone from the bluetooth device, no issues. But as soon as my screen goes off, I can't make calls and when I switch on the screen on my own, I see a message "Process system isn't responding. Wait or close?"
Irrespective of what I select on this message, the call goes through. But it totally defeats the purpose of handsfree bluetooth mode. Is there something that is not allowing the bluetooth device to wake my phone up and then place the call? How do I solve this?
Any help will be appreciated.

I would suggest a return to stock, to start with for trouble shooting. No problem on my stock, rooted N6 with Bluetooth/screen off.

Yeah I'm thinking of going back to stock but I really like the features of this ROM. I'll see when I get the time to do that and will update then.
Thanks a lot for replying.
After the last 2 updates, the Bluetooth controls have stopped working. Any ideas?
*edit- Should add you can connect, pair, play, and cast like normal but..
No blue tooth device will respond to skip or back for audio control, respond to volume control from phone. Also YouTube through Chromecast will not control volume.
Oddly YouTube through Chromecast will control volume with the app directly open. Same thing with Netflix.
These all worked find 3 OS ago.
I have picked through settings and nothing is amiss.
Right now this phone is about as usefull as a phone, Not $1,100 smart device.
Any idea on how to correct this?
Im guessing rolling back wont work since it has knox and will be locked by boot-loader. Do not want to factory reset phone. Just wish i could control volume and skip songs and what not with media bluetooth controls like it use to and how it always worked.
Now in most cases the app is open on the screen, you can control the volume. But you can still not skip songs and do basic play-pause commands from a bluetooth device.
Right now I primarily use Subsonic, YouTube, Netflix and all are broken for remote control.
Basic Tech of phone:
Model Number SM-G998U
Android 12
Carrier T-Mobile "Works every where you are not"
Base band Version: G998USQU4BUKF
Clear system cache and network reset.
Check the bootloader version, it may be possible to do a roll back.
Otherwise factory reset if you upgraded to 12.
Now you know why I don't upgrade or update if the OS is fast, stable and fulfilling its mission.
have you tried to unpair the bt device and pair them again?
or try it in safe mode as well
submit an error report if it continues to fail
Galaxy Wearable app > Go to menu (top left 3 lines) > Contact us>> Error reports
I am having this same issue. Re-pairing does not fix the issue. I am able to pause, but then can never un-pause. It's weird, because my phone show the resume, but it never actually resumes. Skip and rev also broken.
Updates break things...
Maybe installing/reinstalling the effected apps might get it.
A factory reset -might- fix it, but unless you can find/correct the root cause* it's the only option left with that current OS if you can't roll the update back.
*if a user hidden option has been altered a factory reset may be the only conventional way to reset it
Unfortunately tmoble with the phone only lets me dismiss the updates a few times then it just shoe horns you into it.
Was an epic day at work, so just now checking back.
I did try to unpair and repair with one of my bluetooth speakers, but it only allows for volume control, which I was able to control with the phone again. Tomorrow I plan on trying it with my other things to see.
I have tried to clear phones system cache and youtube app cache, but still did not fix volume control with it.
If you have the phone unlocked and the app open, you can control it. Otherwise it will just try to control the system media volume. I have not yet been able to find a way to get it stop switching to system media when connected to chrome.

Try Galaxy Sound Assistant, probably won't help but it's better volume control is a must have.
Try playing with the bt options in Developer options.
You can use a package disabler or an adb edit to block all OTA updates. It's how I keep my OS firmware where I want it.
Here is the update that I had to do to fix it. I now have chromcast volume control with out screen unlocked and youtube open and full control with and from my bluetooth devices. Also the battery longevity seems to be back!
After backing every thing up on local computer...
Factory resting did nothing to fix the issues. A bunch of other tricks also did nothing to fix the issue. It appears the issues are part of Android 12 and the UI4.0 I do not know if this a Tmoble specific issue or what..
So blanking it out, using odin to flash back to the last version of 11 and factory reset after that has resolved all my issues.
This guys video had a good walk through with working links so you can find the right files for your specific needs.
So using this firmware for my specific tmoble variant.;

Fast download latest Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra firmware SM-G998U from USA (T-Mobile) with G998USQS4AUIR and Android version 11

Then Odin, flash it back in bootloader by pressing up and down volume then inserting the USB cord from a computer.
After that fun and restoring the phone from google, used developer mode to disable auto updates so Tmoble does not wreck my phones functionality.
And a side note, I am rather butthurt from having to loose all my customizations and redo them all from the requred factory resets. But hey at least I have the functionality back of 1,100 dollar phone like it should be.
