Phone keeps forgetting Bluetooth pairs.

My Nexus 6 keeps forgetting my Bluetooth pairs. I'll wake up and notice that my pairs are gone. Which is an annoyance with my car and Android Wear watch. It happened once before but then when it happened last night I know there is an issue. It started after I upgraded to Marshmallow. I'm running the MRA58R build. Any ideas?

I have the same issue...ever since marshmallow...both 6.0.0 official and 6.0.1 official, both times before installs the phone was wiped...but never the less it always forgets my bluetooth pairs
it seems to correlate to when the phone fully dies. If the phone fully dies 1-2 out of 5 times it will boot back up without the bluetooth pairings.
Also if I don't pair my Wear watch(original 360) this does not seem to happen either

I'm having this issue as well. My phone will randomly ask to pair with my car, even though it's been paired already. And sometimes it will just ask me to allow it to share Messaging, which was also already set. It's frustrating. I've only noticed it with Marshmallow.
For me it doesn't seem to correlate with charge level.

Having the same problem here and now that you mention it, it does seem to happen when it fully dies. Until someone comes up with a solution I'm going to see about backing them up and restore if it happens again.

Allowing your phone to completely die is a bad idea. The sudden shut down is what is corrupting it.
Also restoring that type of system data is just asking for other random issues, also not a great idea.
While I run an AOSP based rom I have never had my device forget any of my 5 BT pairings.

I agree don't let phone die.
Also if low battery plays a role (before phone dies), it could be related to battery saver features that can activate at low batteries level. (Adjustable in settings)
For the android wear app, turn off battery optimization (to prevent it from being interrupted by doze. )
I have had zero disconnection between my n6 and my moto 360 g1 android wear watch in the last month.

I have the same problem with my car pairing. I never let the battery for or get into battery saver mode so it's definitely not battery related for me.

My phone has done this now twice in three days on N Preview 3. Has anyone found a solution?

mine does it too. but it will forget ALL my paired devices. it's pretty annoying

This is happening to me as well. Nexus 6 is forgetting all paired bluetooth devices.
Most annoying is the Android Wear issue because I've been having to factory reset the watch to get it to pair again. Some of this might be the watch because I'm running a Samsung Gear 2 with Android Wear but I also have several other devices that I have to repair every time.
Also seems to correlate with the battery dying.

There has to be a common bug. As all my devices have no issue remembering the pairing. Mind you I also dont pair to my car.
Also keep in mind that it was found long ago that OEM put in lists of cars that it will not work with in their roms. We found it on samsung devices years ago where it would block all connections to BMW, Audi and a few others.

N6 running 6.0.1 (no root)
This just started happening to me yesterday but has happened twice so far in two days. My phone has not died as seems to be a symptom for others here. It did get below 10% today but I charged it up without issue. it wasn't until several hours later that it wiped all of its paired devices. below is a list of my paired devices:
Samsung ATIV book 8 (windows 10)
UE Mobile BoomBox
Moto360 2nd Gen
2014 Infiniti Q50
2015 Nissan Murano
After it wiped everything yesterday I re-paired the following:
Samsung ATIV book 8
Infiniti Q50
Moto 360
After the first wipe today I paired the watch and the car.
If anyone has any ideas I would be grateful. This is a GIANT PIA!

Does not look like there is a solution to this forthcoming... is there anyone with this problem that's recently updated to N? And has it gone away? I get this usually after a forced reboot... all bt settings gone. Totally a problem.

Any update on this. I think it started happening after I updated to 7 and then went back to 6 after having battery issues?

I have this same problem too. Running Android 6.0.1 on a Samsung Galaxy A5. I drive a lot for work, and need my phone paired to a JVC headunit (listed as JVC UNIT on my phone) in my van so I can take phone calls handsfree, and listen to podcasts. Every now and again, maybe once a day, with no rhyme or reason that I can discern, I get into the van and notice that my phone is not paired. It's a pain to have to pull over and re-pair the phone, and then set it up a a trusted bluetooth device again (so as to avoid entering my passcode whenever unlocking the screen).
- Definitely nothing to do with battery levels. My phone is normally fully charged and plugged in to a charger.
- I don't lose all paired devices, as my UE Boom 2 (not often used) is still listed as a paired device, whereas the JVC UNIT drops off fairly often.
Please could someone sort this issue out! It sounds like quite a few people are experiencing it.
thanks,
Phil

Not likely to get sorted for your phone in this N6 thread. [emoji6]

I am on Android 11 and it still happens to me, my car pairing is being forgotten from time to time. Happens to any of you?

Android Auto connectivity workaround that works!

Workaround that works 100% of the time for those having trouble connecting.
Unlock phone and turn on car or head unit. Note you should have android auto installed already before this will work. Plug in the cable to your phone and you will hear the link sound and the screen on your phone will flash off for just a second. As quickly as possible once the screen goes black on your phone uncable the phone and reconnect it. I know this sounds janky, but it really works. You can tell it is working by the screen on your head unit going black in the background and you will see the android auto icon sI have tried all suggested fixes and this is the only one that works 100% of the time. It also does not take over the telephone's display so you can navigate to other apps and still have android auto running. It is quick and gives you the best of both worlds. I almost returned my 2016 gti due to the frustration from this issue, but now it is no big deal.
Hope this helps guys and gals.

No. For what I read , the only API available for 3rd parties are to send messages and music, and that, using google interface. No other developer can do anything with AA.

List your issues with P30 Pro

Not sure if this is permitted by the mods, but let's make a list of issues and bugs you experience on your P30 Pro. It's a fantastic device, but every now and then I run into, or hear about some stupid issue that impacts the overall experience, but probably could be fixed if reported.
Two of my biggest issues right now:
screen gets unresponsive at times in the bottom left corner
sometimes when I pull down WhatsApp notifications, if there are more of them they get stuck on the screen and won't pull back up, not even using the back key, only swiping them one by one gets them off the screen

My only issue: Having to pay to a rip off like FunkyHuawei to get my official updates!

I followed the instructions in the link to the thread below to get the latest updates.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...orial-vog-l29-flash-firmware-153-usb-t3928793

Ghost vibrations.. I have turned off vibrations now since it does vibrate without getting notifications like once or twice/hour or 2...

Updates from Huawei seem very staggered, seem to mainly be looking after their own country who seem to be about 3 firmware’s ahead of a lot of other places. i know a lot are getting v153 now but why are a lot going straight from 124 to 153 yet some places got fw's in-between in the 140's? i am currently on 124 and my provider EE in the uk say they still haven’t received any newer fw from Huawei since v124.
Issues with screen response, sometimes i have to tap home button a couple of times for it to register, same with some notifications when i unlock the screen, having to tap them a few times.
The software is really rubbish compared to Samsung, i have only just come over to Huawei from Samsung, i had an s8 and it had not long got One Ui, and that genuinely felt more developed, faster and smoother on my s8 that one this p30 pro.
There’s been a couple of times i have contacted the Huawei chat on the Hicare app and they are really funny cause whatever i tell them my issue is they seem to always want me to completely reset my device.
I keep getting really annoying gray bubble pop up notifications telling me apps have been blocked from showing their dropzone and other notifications similar that i know has happened, like sound has been changed etc, not sure how to turn them off cause i don't need them to keep telling me.
I don't understand why Huawei would release a flagship phone and not have the software just feel complete and nice because at the end of the day it’s that which you pretty much judge the phone on.
I guess i also don't like that there seems to be too many settings to change and turn off to make the phone useable, that’s why doing a flash that wipes the phone is really putting me off doing that and using the method that’s being used at the moment to update to 153 via the OTG method.
The screen auto brightness bug that’s not a bug according to huawei and is a feature? The fact that every time i restart my phone i turn auto brightness off and then it comes back on every restart! It really makes me laugh that they think forcing you to have to do that every time you restart is a good feature to have. They say it saves power so it good, yes if you leave it on! i was talking to them and said well the slider is there to have auto on or not so if people wanted it on, they would leave it on would they not? It’s not the biggest issue in the world but it’s fun arguing with them about it, it does annoy me though lol

My issue is simple, EMUI.
Coming from an S10 and oneUI and mix 3 with miui made me realize how bad EMUI is in everything, cloning iOS, native apps like dialer gallery calendar, missed up setrings, Crippled animations (this is a huge one) and notifications. Stupid decissions like launching the camera with volume down. Many many things
I just wish Huawei support at least native Android interface, animations and gestures

Hello,
I have P30 Pro L29 Global
256GB with 8GB of RAM
Update 9.1.0.140
My issue previouly was huge battery drain which makes no sense for p30 pro to run out of battery at 7pm (100% at 7.00am) for moderate usage.
So I have tried clearing cache partition and factory reset several times to find out the culprit. It seems the battery drain stops when I factory reset and did not restore anything from HiSuite (I start fresh).
Setting > Battery > Usage
What I noticed was that the battery drain seems to happen when "Phone Services" at 34% usage. Initially I thought it was normal but after comparing with the p30 pro's of my colleague, her "Phone Services" always lower than 2% usage.
The main culprit that i suspected was Carrier Services which I didn't update till this day in playstore.
I also stop the Carrier Services in Developer mode 1 time.
Until now my battery life is superb. Lasting me 30 hours of moderate usage (still have 37%) at the time I recharge.

- Firmware updates are messed up, they need to fix this
- Annoying beeps without any notification icon
- Memory management is way to agressive (softphones like skype keep missing calls)
- Native android options are missing
- Response to back button or home button is sometimes not working only after after pressing it multiple times it works.
All above can easily be fixed, the real question is will they fix it ?

Issues i have is that sometimes when i m fast typing a message the keyboard disappeared(i m using gestures, I don't know if this is the case) and the AOD with smart view flip case issue. Other than that i have zero issues, extreme great battery life 2 full days with normal use(facebook ,instagram ,mail ,chatting, light gaming e.t.c.) and 35% left or 1+ day heavy usage. I m coming from p20 pro and yes at the beginning i was very fraustrating with emui and how it works, but after learned and used to it, i loved it(it should be smoother though). My major complain is the lack of notification led, I missed it soooo much.

I have the P30 Pro, VOG-AL10, 8GB/512GB model; gifted from a friend
I have a couple annoyances
1) My biggest problem (along with any other mainland Android phone I've owned) is there is no way to force full encryption. You can only add stuff to the "safe."
2) My second annoyance is the aggressive power management. I've done a lot of my own tweaking so it doesn't force close my Cisco AnyConnect client for example. I use LastPass for password management and for whatever reason, whenever I re-open the app it requires I use my 2FA again even when I choose remember for 30 days. I don't know if this is a LastPass problem or what. The only way to keep it from resetting is to keep it active in my open apps.
3) Even though I use Chrome as the default browser, for certain tasks (like using a WiFi hotspot that requires registration), it will still open in the default browser which you need to accept their TOS to use...
4) I use SwiftKeys as my default keyboard. I have the Huawei IME unchecked. I use the phone, after a while the Huawei IME will get enabled again.

The BIGGEST issue I am facing is the lack of the Camera2.API implementation with the p30 pro

Even doing that you can render certain features unusable since they aren't certified so saftey net fails meaning some games, banking apps and g pay won't work. I've reset using the USB method mentioned and have everything back to normal. Just going to be patient instead of blowing cash and wrecking stuff.

I think aperture mode is rubbish. Really poor quality, unless anyone has any suggestion to improve it. However just standard photos of objects seems to have fairly decent bokeh by default so use that as a kind of object portrait mode.

Issue : abnormal Battery Drain & The device heat up when I connect to other bluetooth device (which never happened on my mate 20)
I want to put a screenshot here to let you guys see what i mean. but still dont have permission.

Android Auto doesn't work most of the time, and when it does, it stops working after a couple of minutes.

1) No Bootloader unlock
2) No way to set Alarm tone Globally
3) Missing an option to install firmware manually
4) Change volume without preview sound
5) Some basic apps are not system apps and when uninstalling them having no way of getting them back (not available on PlayStore, AppStore)

Im on 9.1.0.131 firmware.
My problems are:
1. Phone sometimes vibrates without any notification icon
2. Proximity sensor doesn't work sometimes during phone calls. The screen is lit up the whole time Im on my phone
3. The slow motion videos at higher fps are of ****ty quality
4. Opening up the apps from notifications panel doesn't response sometimes and the respective app doesn't open up
Though I dont have any issues like other mentioned like battery draining, heating up etc

Possible fix for constant AA crash

I recently started getting a lot of AA disconnects from my Samsung phone and my AA stereos - I have an Android Chinese unit as well as a Kenwood Excelon in my second car. Thought the cable might be the issue but that didn't seem like it.
I went in to the apps menu and found that under system apps, there are 2 more AA related apps. Proceeded to turn off battery optimizations for all 3 and now it seems to be running stable.
The apps are:
Android Auto (DUH!)
android.auto_generated_rro_product__
android.auto_generated_rro_vendor__

You're the f'ing man! I could kiss you.

Didn't work for me.. only fix I have found is tap the usb options [while plugged in] on phone and tell the phone that the plugged in device manages connection.. unfortunately this setting does not remain set after use.

Question Watch keeps disconnecting, bluetooth issue on MIUI14

Just updated to MIUI 14 and it was a mistake. My Galaxy watch just randomly disconnects, bluetooth connection needs to be manually started again. This happens on random intervals (but no longer than 1h). Tried reinstalling apps, restarting watch, a2dp, turning off miui optimalization and a2dp, reseting bluetooth connections, and still nothing.
Everything was working fine on android 12. Now the lifetime of my active2 watch is down from 3 days, to maybe 1,5 days.
Anybody has any ideas? I am considering downgrading to android 12, cause it's so bad.
Thanks!

Omg, it's such a relief knowing it is not only me. Seriously, updating to miui 14 was a mistake, whenever I open camera app, the Watch randomly disconnects.
Pls give a solution.
Thnx.

I started having this exact same issue after updating to MiUI 14.
My Gear S3 doesn't even connect anymore. If I manually connect it through the Galaxy Wearables app it disconnects immediately after I close the app. I can fix this by making every app related to the Gear S3 (Wearables App, Gear S3 plugin, Samsung Accessory Service) able to auto-start, then my watch will stay connected, but as soon as I open the camera, either through the system camera app or any other app that uses the camera, my watch will constantly disconnect while the camera is open. And even worse, it will lag like crazy when recording 4K footage, making the final recording look very choppy, rendering it unusable.
So I'm stuck choosing between having a useless smartwatch or being unable to record 4K video. What the hell Xiaomi?

Try changing battery to no restrictions for camera and galaxy wearable. Mine was disconnecting when using camera. Also app lock and auto start Samsung accessory service and gear s plugin. Auto start Galaxy wearable.
