Galaxy S6 Edge Bluetooth problems

Hello Everyone. I noticed lately that my bluetooth connects for call audio, and media, but after like 5 minutes the media disconnects, and won't reconnect. Makes it really hard to enjoy music and stuff when it keeps disconnecting. I had a galaxy S5 that I used In my car previous to this, and it never had this problem. Is there something I'm missing here? or is there a fix that was released that I can implement? Ideas?

Normally users would like to toggle the actual assistance off and then back in once again following minutes. When that will doesn’t repair the problem, it’s time for it to forget Bluetooth connections. Head into Bluetooth, engage the call and select Forget the trouble system or perhaps products.

Curious what car you have? I have a 2015 Civic and it's driving me nuts with the connection issues. It does what you're saying at some point during my drive. Tried resetting, deleting and re-adding Bluetooth profiles. I'm not sure if it's the Edge itself or the stupid Hondalink system that is causing issues with the Bluetooth connection because it's made for Apple products.

Bluetooth Connected (no media)

I recently got a new Nexus 6 and I'm having bluetooth connection issues specifically in my car. Bluetooth will connect but when it connects it shows "Bluetooth connected (no media)". So I can make phone calls over bluetooth in my car but my phone won't play media (waze/gps, local music, streaming music, etc). I have no problems connecting via bluetooth to a portable bluetooth speaker at home. Previously I had a Nexus 5 that I had no problems connecting to my car's bluetooth and making phone calls or playing media.
I've searched forums/google and have disassociated the pairing multiple times, ensured that 'Media audio' is checked in the bluetooth paired device settings, deleted the bluetooth cache, rebooted and nothing seems to resolve the (no media) issue.
It's strange because everything was fine with my old Nexus 5 and the Nexus 6 works fine with my separate portable bluetooth speaker but it won't play through my car's bluetooth. Has anyone experienced this?
Thanks!

Anyone?

Same issue

Sorry I don't have an answer, but you're not alone. I have exactly the same issue. Normally seems to solve itself when I manually turn BT off, then back on. But I hate to do that because it disconnects by Moto 360 and screws up a lot of other Tasker profiles that trigger from connecting to my car audio sytem. Sometimes I have to completely reboot the phone to make it work. I've tried a lot of things, but no luck yet. Hope someone knows the answer!

I had this problem one time before. Try bluetooth autoconnect. A2DP seems to not be running on your phone.

I'm having the same issue - brand new and it doesn't want to work on either of my phones I'm questioning the Integrity of the cheap $20 Walmart bluetooth car head unit

Is there a resolution for this problem? I've got the same issue as the op going on...

it can only be one of 3 things;
-your rom
-your kernel
-your vehicles bluetooth version
you can change/fix the first 2 things, but the third one is an expensive fix..

I'm running stock on the Nexus 6. It's not even rooted. Searching on this problem, there are posts that go back a few years. I figure with so many people running into this problem, someone must be working on a solution. I guess it's easier to just plug in the auxiliary cable?

I have the same issue . connected but no media. It worked properly after I re-booted the phone. We shouldn't have to do that so this bug needs fixing.

I have this problem with my new pioneer mvh-36bt deck. Only when I'm on a custom ROM though. I'd goto more options check all the boxes. Then clear Bluetooth memory on deck then it works. When I'm on stock rooted image no problems.

I had a similar issue when I switched from. Nexus 6 to 6P. In my case it turned out to be that there can be only 2 portable Bluetooth players that can be connected to my car multimedia. Deleting one of the 2 portable players and re pair Bluetooth resolved my issue

My Nexus 6 is the only Bluetooth device synced in the my car. I've tried deleting and re-pairing, turning the phone off and back on, turning Bluetooth off and back on, and nothing seems to work. :/

I have the same problem. My N6 never had any BT issues until I bought my new car today and tried to pair. My friend's iPhone worked just fine, so I'm pretty sure it's something in N6 that's the problem. Call function works but no media. This is very frustrating...

Curious if you've selected gear icon, in BT screen by device name, after paired AND while connected to view / enable all relevant options?
Sometimes when I pair I must manually update the BT access, though rarely. I presume manufacturer pairing settings (external device, not N6) don't default to all available options. Can't hurt to make sure media etc. is enabled. Good luck.

Yea, they are all checked, but it doesn't make any differences. BT also keeps losing connection. Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

Oddly enough, when I connected my phone to BT speaker today, no media or phone cnxn. Took my own advice and checked the BT settings. All were checked.
Unchecked then rechecked phone and media. Slight delay after uncheck before system let me reselect. Voila! Phone and media cnxn restored. BT was connected whole time.

Yes! My 1 week old Nexus 6P same issue. But all other bluetooth device pair xcellent, shows and plays media!

OK, I got mine to work on my 2011 Lexus by first pairing it as a phone then pairing it as a Bluetooth media player. Works great! Frustrating that I had to do it that way, but I'm happy I don't have to plug my N6 into the microphone jack anymore.

This thread might be dead but I found it when I searched for a solution and so will be others.
I got a Kenwood DDX5016BT in my car. When you connect a new device it will just work as a phone. To enable media you have to go settings and register it as a Bluetooth device. It right on top of the iPod settings. Hope this helps anyone or even me in a few months lol

Anyone having problems with Bluetooth

I previously owned a Sony Z3v and had no complaints. I run and workout regularly so I often use bluetooth headphones while doing so. These in particular http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/backbeat-fit. I'm been having issues since day 1 with these disconnecting. I have to power them down and power them up again to reconnect. Even when they lose connection, they show they are connected but are non responsive. I had not trouble whatsoever with my sony experia.
Anyone else having these kind of issues? I've checked the forums and I don't see any reports. Is this isolated?

I only use Bluetooth when I'm in the shower with the beats pill but it works great for me.

Not entirely related but I have had issues with my original Galaxy Gear disconnecting somewhat frequently when I disconnect my BT head unit or at other seemingly random times that sometimes require me to turn BT off and on again. It's not that huge of an issue usually but BT on my S6 is not perfect for sure.

I am having Bluetooth disconnect issues with my car. Will connect and disconnect repeatedly for about 7 minutes and then stay connected. Very annoying. Have tried several fixes but nothing has worked.

I haven't had an issue with mine when using it for my gopro.

The issue is with Android using Bluetooth 4.0 and WiFi simultaneously. I've had these issues since owning the phone. For whatever reason if you connect your phone to a bluetooth speaker where both devices are BT 4.0, the WiFi will be extremely slow or not work at all.
If you don't believe me, try it. As soon as you connect the device, try to load something like a video or song over WiFi. Or even send a Facebook message. It'll stall. As soon as it stalls, turn off WiFi and it'll magically start working again over cellular data.

No issues here, usually stream to a Bose Color Sound device, getting connection through WiFi

I have issues with mine pretty regularly with my car. A reboot of the phone will sometimes fix it. It's annoying, sometimes it will disconnect from audio but not phone or vice versa. Or it will work perfect, I'll get a phone call and it all goes to crap. The remainder of the drive will generally result in fighting with it. Maybe it will reconnect, but most of the time it won't. Never have I had a phone with so many bluetooth issues.

Had issues with my truck head unit / phone BT. Phone would continually disconnect.
Tracked it down to the Messages transferring to head unit.
If I disabled Messages in the Bluetooth / Allow Access To area, it worked fine, but obviously messages wouldn't go to my truck.
I cleaned all messaging apps, factory reset truck head unit, no fix. eventually factory reset the phone, havn't had any problems since.

Stopped working again.

Bluetooth issue

Anyone else have an issue with Bluetooth audio cutting out every few minutes then works fine again for a few?

Yes!

Took forever to get it to pair with my Onkyo Receiver, then dropped the connection twice??

Just got my device yesterday, and I'm having issues as well. My Gear S3 keeps saying it's disconnected and will reconnect in a bit. Pretty annoying.

Annoying is putting it lightly, It seemed that my Gear S3 and the Onkyo Receiver are fighting for the BT connection??

For some reason this phone doesn't connect well with other Bluetooth devices nearby. I turned off 2 other Bluetooth devices inside the house and now the connection is good with my patio speaker.

No problems here. I always have my Gear S3 connected to the phone by BT, and often have a BT headset connected to the phone too.

I paired both my bt speakers yesterday and ran the dual audio from the phone for hours without issue.

Maybe the problem is device specific. I remember having the same issue with my note 7 and this BT adapter for my Onkyo receiver.

The only time my Gear S3 Frontier complains about being disconnected is when I'm out of range of the Note. The Note connects fine to my car ('14 BMW 535ix) and radar detector (can't have a BMW without one! :laugh, while remaining connected to my watch.

Yes, here also issues with connecting audio to car kit. Funny that I only noticed this after the first samsung oficial update.
It connects to the hands free phone, bit not to audio. Cleared Bluetooth system apps memory and cache and 8t worked again. Short time though. Problem is back again...
Now putting my hope on Samsung update.

Oh my gosh it's driving me crazy! One time BT stayed on 28 minutes. Usually it cuts off the call in 2-3 minutes!

Not sure what Note 8 types have BT issues, my N950U1 (SD), never has an issue. Maintains connection with Gear S2, always connects to car (audio and phone, Volvo XC60) and streams music and facilitates calls to wireless head buts/headphones. No hickups or disconnects whatsoever. Compared to Note 5 a huge improvement.

Android audio

Hi, first post so bare with me.
I have a android head unit in my vehicle and a samsung s10 5g phone.
Every time I switch the ignition on and they try to connect the android audio on my phone never seams to connects. It seams to be continually searching for a connection with the head unit.
This blocks the phone from connecting to anything else. I.E maps.
Wifi and Bluetooth both connect with out any problems.
Photo of Head unit system attached.
Any suggestions on how to fix this problem would be appreciated.
Thanks Andy.
