Connect to bluetooth headphones with NFC - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Good day!
I just bought this wonderful device and ran into a strange problem.
When i try to place phone near to nfc tag in headphones, they successfully powering on, but phone does not connect to them.
On the previous phone everything was fine (Nexus 5X).
The headphones were switched on and the phone was connected to them automatically.
Is any fix for this issue?

Bluetooth reconnection problem.

I've got an annoying problem with Bluetooth on my Kaiser. I'm currently using Motorola S9 headphones, I paired them with Kaiser for the first time and everything was working perfectly but whenever I turn Bluetooth on my phone off or pair the headphones to another device I cannot connect to tytn again. I have to delete partnership with headphones on TYTNII and then pair them again to be able to use the headphones. Everything is all right when I turn off the headphones and then turn them on again...connection is established automatically. The problem occurs only when Bluetooth on tytn was turned off or the headphones were used with another device. Is there a solution to this problem?
I've had some BT connecton problems too. I have the SonyDR-BT21Gs and if I pair them with something else, the only way I can get them to connect again is to initiate a phone call. Not sure why, but once the Hands Free protocol connects, the Wireless Stereo protocol also starts working. May or may not help you, though. FWIW, I also have the S9s and have had no problems with them, but I use them only with the phone while working out, so they may fall suffer under the same scenario as I described for the Sonys

Bluetooth/car stereo: Vario3 connects but car immediately says "dialling"

I have a stock T-Mobile Vario-3 from first release, no ROM updates, and I have an odd problem when connecting it to my car stereo via Bluetooth. Initially I thought it was a bug with my Pioneer head unit, but I've just got a new car and it's doing the same thing with the Renault factory-fitted unit.
When the (already paired) phone auto-connects via bluetooth, the car stereo reports that it is dialling the last number - although the phone does not actually dial, and the phone itself continues to work normally as if it is not connected.
If I reboot the Vario the problem seems to go away until after I have made another phone call, and then the problem returns again. On the old Pioneer head unit I could just cancel the 'phantom call' by selecting back to the radio or CD input, but on the new Renault the only control keys that work are volume, so I have to disconnect and reset the phone again to get it to connect correctly.
Once I get past this glitch, everything works perfectly - good stereo audio output for my MP3s with playback-control via the car's buttons, hands-free phone use, accessing the phone's Contacts directory via the car controls, etc.
Does anyone else have this problem, or know of a proper fix?
Or maybe someone is telling me that I really do need to get a Touch Pro 2....

Bluetooth off?

Hi,
I noticed something I thought was a bit odd. I was testing out a new Bluetooth headset (Voyager Legend UC) with my PC. Headset is also paired to my Phone. To avoid conflicts I turned off bluetooth on my Nexus 6 (5.0.1). To my surprise the N6 turned Bluetooth back on again as soon as it noticed that the headset was close or If I turned on headset in proximity of the phone.
How do you fully turn off Bluetooth so I wont auto-turn back on again? Does it have something to do with smart locks and my paired headset?

[Q] No sound in Bluetooth headset when phone is connected to watch

Hi,
I have a Nexus 6 (stock 5.1, rooted but no other system modifications), a pair of Philips Fidelio M2BT Bluetooth headphones and a Watch Urbane (fully stock). When I connect the headphones to the phone with the watch already connected I get no media sound in the headphones even though they connect successfully. If I look go to the Bluetooth settings the headphones are listed as "Connected (no media)". Sometimes the sound is played on the phone speakers and sometimes nowhere. I can usually get around this by first disconnecting the watch in the Wear app before connecting the headphones and then the watch. Sometimes I also need to turn Bluetooth off and back on before starting to reconnect the devices and sometimes I need to reboot the phone. I've used the phone and headphones together for half a year with no issues whatsoever. Also note that I'm not trying to connect the headphones to the watch but to the phone.
Anyone else seeing similar behavior? Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

I don't have my Urbane yet, so I'm not sure if I can help. But when the phone is connected to the Urbane, can you edit the Bluetooth connection on the phone to ensure that it's not taking audio (I know it doesn't have speaker, but is it taking the Media Audio Profile?)

Thanks for the suggestion but no, the Urbane is listed only as a "raw" Bluetooth device, i.e. there are no check boxes for profiles in it's Bluetooth settings. In fact it's never listed as connected at all in the Bluetooth device list. I figured that this is some kind of Android Wear quirk but it's my first Wear device so I'm not sure.
I have the watch and my bluetooth speaker in the car and I have had no issues using both of them. I also have a third bluetooth USB adapter connected to the USB of my car that allows me to stream music and no issue with it either. I have the OnePlus One with custom firmware running Lollipop 5.1.1
My bluetooth speaker only has "Phone Audio" checked (no other options), the bluetooth USB stick has the "phone audio" unchecked and the "Media Audio" checked, and the Urbane does not have a check mark option.
Try updating the Android Wear app.. they released some update yesterday that might help fix your issue.

Thanks for the info. The new wear app didn't make any difference but the fact that you have a couple of Bluetooth audio devices working flawlessly made me start suspecting my headphones instead of the watch - didn't really know where to start so I picked the watch since it's the latest addition. Searched around a bit and realized that others were having connectivity problems with them too, especially when using them with multiple devices (fantastic headphones in every other aspect). This review was really interesting and the tip about how to reset the headphones did the trick for me. Not a great solution as I probably need to repeat it after using them with other devices than my phone but at least I now know that the watch is not to blame - it was just the trigger for some bug in the crappy headphone Bluetooth implementation.

Bluetooth issues - phone "hijacks" Spotify control, turns off call-audio on BT devic

Bluetooth issues - phone "hijacks" Spotify control, turns off call-audio on BT devic
BT seems is super annoying. Not sure if it started on the last update (9.1.0.153) or it was happening before as well.
I'm experiencing two issues related to BT:
1. during a call through BT headphones (Bose QC35), the BT profile changes automatically: call-audio is being toggled off, and the headset is no longer being used for the call. Turning it on during the call works for a few minutes and then it toggles off again. Tried to un-pair the device and pair it again.
Might be important to note, I also had a laptop connected to the headphones at the same time, but I definitely didn't have that issue with my previous phone (Xiaomi mi5s) in the same conditions.
2. when using Spotify on a laptop. if the app is also running on the phone, it randomly hijacks the control.
I think it happens only when the phone is connected via BT to a media device, doesn't matter if the laptop is connected to the same one or not. It happens to me in two situations:
a. using BT headphones connected to both the laptop and the phone.
b. when the phone is connected to BT speaker and the laptop is connected by wire to a different set (to an amp via DAC).
in the above scenarios two different laptops are used.
It's really annoying,
Any idea how I can solve this?
Thanks
p.s. device version is VOG-L29, don't know if it matters.
