[Q] Problem with Bluetooth phone - HTC Droid DNA

Hello all,
I am having a problem getting the phone part of my new DNA to work with blue-tooth in my car. The A2DP works great but after I answer or make a phone call with my Car Stereo (eclipse 3200) I cant hear anything and they cant hear me. If I use the dial-pad on the phone to make a call I hear the tones from the button pushes but nothing after the call is connected.
Thanks for any help or suggestions

I have a Sony bluetooth player in my car and it will not even recognize the device.
Edit: It was a user error on my part. I have successfully paired and it works flawless.

My car recognizes and pairs with the DNA, but it will only play the first 1-2 seconds of music, then the radio stops receiving any audio. Sometimes it works properly and will play songs completely, but the majority of the time, it will cut out. I can pause and unpause it, and I'll get 1-2 seconds of music, then it stops again.
Also, any high pitched sounds (ie. cymbals, percussion, etc.) are very distorted. I had this same issue on the Thunderbolt The Galaxy Nexus I had for the past year had no issues and sounded perfect over bluetooth.
I am disappoint.

I think the phone just has bluetooth problems in general, or BT4 is just not 100% backwards compatible. I have a Pioneer stereo, and never had any problems with any of my android devices (OG Droid, Droid X, inc2 and gNex) connecting, but when I connect my DNA, it actually crashes the phone process on the handset and it restarts (the process, not the handset). It still appears to be connected to the stereo after that, but I haven't tried making a call yet.
Stereo doesn't support BT streaming, so I can't test that. Has an SD slot, and that's all I ever use.

I'm having the same problem. My music will play for about 3 seconds, then goes silent. The car says I'm still connected, Google Music is still playing, but it mutes out. Was having fun while driving hitting the pause/play button to listen to a song 3 seconds at a time. Does anyone know if this is a OS problem, hardware problem or incompatibility, or other problem? I didn't see many posts about this elsewhere and haven't heard back from Verizon.

Working fine for me with my Kenwood. Music does skip occasionally, but my other phones (galaxy nexus, thunderbolt) have done that too.

For all of us who suffer a HTC Toyota combo and the dreaded bluetooth pause issue I believe I have found the issue and got a working solution !
From what I gather, the HTC music player sets the bluetooth player state to pause when leaving the music player and most other apps do not set it back to streaming. I found one which does, so a simple solution !
1. Start and stop a piece of music with the Fplay music player and it will reset the bluetooth player state to streaming. I put a widget on the home screen.
2. Start your other apps and enjoy streaming sound again.
3. Enjoy

Is It Just me or is there an issue with Android & (some) Bluetooth Stereo Devices?

Is It Just me or is there an issue with Android & (some) Bluetooth Stereo Devices?
Using a Jabra BT3030 I get the lovely convenience of receiving a phonecall and wirelessly listening to music but, it just seems VERY buggy at times. The main thing is after being on a call (mostly receiving a call but many times making a call also bugs things up) and trying to play music or any audio in the G1, sound just stutters baaadly
Thought it was just when my G1 was rooted but as I run it on stock still get the same thing. When I toyed around with the Motorola Droid in Verizon store the other day after wowing myself and seeing that it had a working phone signal I paired my headset to it and played music & watched youtube vids on there... after calling the Droid phone and then trying to play back sounds guess what? Stuttering playback!!
The stuttering stops when I turn the Jabra off then back on but (a) this is annoying for obvious reasons (b) there may be times when things are finicky with pairing/re-pairing headset with phone. There's other little annoyances here & there like some lag @ times when trying to pause/ff/rw but the stuttering crap annoys me and going by the Droid running 2.0 it's still a problem then.
Thus I'm wondering how everyone's experience is with whatever bluetooth stereo (A2DP) device their pairing with their G1's (or any other android device you using). I'm hoping it isn't just my Jabra BT3030 but sadly accept the possibility it -could- be the culprit . Phonecalls for the most part are clear even while sound goes through buggy (altho I had a couple moments where the phone would reboot when a call comes in on my Dream but didn't happen in a while *knocks on wood*).
I am also having problems with my Jabra BT3030. Im using BlueMagic MKrII ROM. Major issue is that I cannot go foward or backwards between tracks, nor pause or play. Only the volume works. And I've noticed that when I artivate the google voice app, my music stutters from then on.

Music skips via bluetooth

Hi, is there a resolution to my HTC EVO 3D skipping (more like it stops playing then resumes in about a second or 2) my music via my Bluetooth motorcycle helmet. I did not have this issue with my HTC Hero.
I have the same problem, or issue...i have a ChatterBox GMRS X1 Bluteooth that I use to listen to music while riding to work. Mine skips just like yours every once and a while and I have come up with the to the following conslusions
1) The OTA update that I have not applied sets off a ringtone every so often, this cuts out music for a second then returns - this is by far the most repetitive reason I can come up with
2) Incoming Text Messages play a ringtone, thus cutting out the music for about 2 seconds, then returning to normal.
3) Incoming Phone Calls - this again plays a ringtone and cuts my music out for about 10 seconds, then returns to playing normal.
4) When using Pandora vs. my music library...driving 60 miles up 95 I tend to loose signal or "hop" a lot, so my 3G will cut out for a second or it will re-buffer the song, then play again.
Those reasons above are all what I've noticed when listening to music via bluetooth. I do not use a bluetooth headset for phone calls, I've never liked them. Also, if you take away 1-3 and I listen to my music library on my SD card, I've never had my bluetooth cut out or skip. Hope this info helps.
-Slevin
mine skips to on my blue ant t1,just holding it or sitting next to it on the table and it skipd when im listening to my music,thought it was the mp3 missing data from downloading but its not...anyone have any other idea's or maybe know how to fix this proplem?
I also have this problem. I am using the Nokia BH-214. Every once in a while it freezes and resumes after about half a second.
I'm using a Plantronics Backbeat 903 and have the same issue. Didn't have this before on my E4G.
I really hoping that HTC fixes this issue since It's really an inconvenience when listening to music in that manner.

Same problem intermittently via arctic sound p311.
No problems with my jawbone. Any ideas?
works fine in 2011 sonata and my plantronics headset
same here...skipped a lot when I was at the golfing range. never had that problem with my hero using my jawbone icon
I've been having this same issue using the Plantronics Backbeat 903+. It almost seems like somehow the G sensor is causing the interference. If my phone is sitting on the desk, it plays without a problem, even if I am walking around. If I am carrying my phone though, it pauses, unless I keep my phone level. Could that possibly be affecting it?
Could be since I was on my motorcycle when it was pause and skip, but when I was not moving it was fine.
same skipping issue with multiple music players and jaybird jf3/freedom bluetooth stereo headset. im running steelrom 1.01 and net's kernel.

This is actually the first phone that I have been able to use connected to my car stereo VIA BT with absolutely no skipping at all.

Download Headset Blocker from the market, it's a widget so you have to turn it on if you don't want music to skip when the headphones are plugged in. Hope it helps

Notice it happens when I hold the phone upsidedown, then it would stop playing music for a second or two, then start again.

[Q] Music Auto Starts After Call Disconnect

This problem has been going on forever since my Galaxy Nexus and it continues to this day. It's something that I still can't seem to fix beyond disabling media through my Bluetooth. I have a Plantronics Legend connected to my Galaxy S4 as well as my work IPhone 4S. Whenever I get a call on either phone and the call ends my music player automatically starts up and plays a song. It doesn't matter what media player I use. Currently I'm using Rocket player but it happens with Google music or any other player I've had. This occurs even if I haven't used the music player since a reboot. I know I can disable the media playback option on the bluetooth headset in bluetooth settings but I generally want to use the headset with media occasionally. I just don't want it barging in whenever I hang up the phone. This does not happen when the phone is connected to my car though (2011 VW Golf.) Any deep setting I can adjust to disable this annoyance?

Did you ever solve this, as I have exactly the same problem with a Plantronics Legend/Galaxy Note 3/iPhone 4S combo?

Bluetooth issues?

Anyone else having weird issues with their Bluetooth? More specifically, when you play music, the metadata adds some weird 01 or 000 digits in front of the track titles? Confirmed with PowerAmp as well as Spotify. Also having static and hiccup issues with it as well. Thought it was my head unit in my car, but it is in fact the phone since it does the same thing with other cars I've tested this in.
I've been having some issues using it with my car too.
I have a aftermarket radio, but this is the only phone that does this.
When a call comes in the music is suppose to stop. It doesn't i'm getting sounds from calls and music at the same time. I would have to manually pause the music on my phone.
Another thing is, when i turn off the car. Normally the phone will automatically pause or shut down the music app when connect is lost. Not with this phone. it just keeps playing the music after loosing connection with the host.
Hoping there is a update to fix this bug. It's not a big thing but it's starting to get annoying...
Mine works fine except the app will randomly close sometimes. Pandora never shuts off. Only gmusic and spotify does. I actually love how much faster this phone connects compared to my note 4.

I haven't notice any issues yet and I use bluetooth 3-4 hrs a day. I use iheart, Poweramp, PlayerPro.
I'll start looking for problems now

Issues with Bluetooth?

So I have a Ford Edge with a bluetooth receiver where I can play music, as well as some headphones, and I'm having intermittent issues when using this type of playback. The issue doesn't occur with my partner's Note 5, does anybody have any issues with stereo bluetooth? I'm close to writing to LG about it so they can log with (possibly) other reports for the same issue.

Just today i had issues with mine, i have one the parrot devices on my car and it picks up my iphone right away but i tried for about 2 minutes to play music from my v10 and it wouldn't connect to it, someones it connect right away its very off and on. I didn't try to unpair it and re-pair it though.
Am I reading that right, are both BT devices trying to connect at the same time? If so I had sorta the same problem in my Audi. I sometimes had to toggle Bluetooth on and off to get it to reconnect. But what I did was go into the Bluetooth settings for each device and specifically select the profile I want to use for that device. So for Audi MMI, which handles the phone calls, I selected the profile "Call Audio" only. Then for my headphones I selected the "Media Audio" profile only. I just figured that if two BT devices are fighting for the same profile only one is going to win it. And it seemed like it was a toss up which one got the call or media profile first.

No, you are not . However, allow me to clarify that the devices I mentioned are having issues on their own when using the V10. One incident is with my car's stereo, if I'm lucky, the audio will hold or it will decide to be a douche and start getting choppy with 1 second gaps.
Also, I'm noticing with the WiFi that my signal is horrible, but my partner's Note5 is perfect and super quick. I really really like this phone, but these issues are a bit annoying.
I have problems with my car stereo too. When I get in the car, it will connect automatically and start playing like normal but only for a minute or two. Then bluetooth will disconnect. So, I turn bluetooth off and on and, it will stay connected after that.
I also have a bose bluetooth speaker which doesnt have any problems.
I just found this thread after posting to the rom thread I am using...
I am having a minor annoyance with Bluetooth and media streaming.
When the phone auto pairs to my cars stereo head unit (Kenwood KDC-BT762HD), system sounds/calls etc come through the car fine, but not Media like music, videos etc.
Phones says it is paired to Media and the head unit does show the song info and I can control the app via hardware buttons on the unit, the phone acts as if it is playing, but no sound is heard. I have to turn bluetooth off then on or re-pair and then it works fine. I thought it was just the music app I use, but its any apps that play media like music or videos, including Pandora and Youtube.
I have 4 varying bluetooth headphones and they auto- reconnect to the phone just fine with no issues.
Anyone else having a an issue like this with any of their car stereos? My G3 never did this.

This is a fairly known issue to specific cars.

Also, I have a gmc canyon 2015. I have the same issue. I stopped using my car's bluetooth , I now only use aux cable. Amazing in 2016 and I still have to use aux cable. I am looking to moving to one plus 3 because of this issue. marshmallow also brought gps bugs on top of the bluetooth one.

I don't think its a MM issue or a vehicle specific issue (and i have an aftermarket stereo head unit) I have not had this issue with any of my other MM (or LP)devices I have tried with the radio. I have a spare LG G3 and a Moto X Pure that is running MM that is running MM and many of the mods and same apps I use on my G3 and now V10, again, no BT issues.
I am not having any disconnect or not pairing issues at all....just the odd thing that the media sounds don't work unless i disconnect/then connect the phone to the head unit when I get back into the car and power up and it auto pairs.
My folks have a much more serious issue with their 2015 Ford Escape and Ford Sync and their Samsung S4's they both have. Phone pairs and works fine once, but then the mic acts like its muted, no one can hear u, even if u un-pair the phone from the car, the phone itslef no longer outputs sound at all. You have to reboot the phone in order to get it to work again. It did it when the phones were on Android L and still after the MM update. Web search finds many folks with same issues in regards to that issue. (which is not the issue i am having at all, infact, their phones work fine on my car).
I found a work around for my issue. Since i simply just needed to disconnect and reconnect the BT to my car's head unit, found a widget that does just that. A2DP Connect2. Car auto pairs, i tap widget once, disconnects, wait a few sec, tap again, connects, my media streaming now works fine.
Still a annoyance, but much better than having to navigate menus and such.
BT issues fixed with update to 20j.
I can confirm that the annoying Bluetooth media stream issue in 20e, where you had to re-connect the phone or no media stream....is fixed in 20j. Auto connect works perfectly every time now on my Kenwood head unit.
