[Q] Bluetooth pairing with specific headphone causes infinite bootloop - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Samsung Galaxy SII (Sprint) running Android 4.0.4. This is stock rom.
I recently got a Bluetooth headset (Taotronics TT-BH06). I paired it with the phone and it worked fine. However, the next time I turned on Bluetooth the phone went into an bootloop. The only way I could stop it was to to into Bluetooth settings and unpair the headset. I have tried pairing several times and get the same problem each time. Also, when I originally pair, the device has the manufacturer's name, but when I later go to unpair, it has the name "00:23:01:23:32:B1".
I sent a support query to the vendor, and they sent me a replacement. However, I get the same problem with the replacment! I have used other BT devices with my Galaxy S2 and had no problems. Furthermore, I have used this Taotronics headset with another Android device, without any problems. Has anyone heard of this kind of problem? Is there any way to fix this problem with the phone?

No connection with my Car Built-in Bluetooth

Hello, I just bought a Xperia S and I did not reach in connection it to my Built-in bluetooth system (a parrot built-in kit in a Citroen). The pjone can see the system but I'm not able to make the system pairing.
I already had difficulties in the past with an X10 but it was linked to Android 1.6 and with my Samsung Galaxy S2 under Cyanogen7. I have no issue to conenct with Nokia E6, iPhone 4 or Android 2.3.X smartphones (Samsung Galaxy S2, Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire,...).
I think that it could come from the BT stack used by Sony or from their Android adaptation and I don't think I would be able to pair the system till an update could be released or perhaps with ICS.
Does somebody has the same difficulty or a solution ?
Best regards
Try to reset the bluetooth in your car.

I had the same issue with my bluetooth IO player.First time when I added it after that it would not connect. Turned bluetooth off and on and automatically connected. Might be worth restarting your phone. If the phone can add it then it should be able to connect to it.
Hello, I do,'t know where to reset my car BT as it is a built-in. One solution could be to remove the fuse....
It is not a question of connexion as I'm not able to pair the BT device and the Xperia.
I have no issue with all the other phones !!!
I have a 2009 Ford Mondeo and my Xperia S paired with the integrated bluetooth unit without any issues. Can browse phone book and call log without any issues and obviously make/receive calls.
Hi Guys,

[Q] SGS 2 Jelly Bean 4.1.2 - Bluetooth connection problems to car telephone system

Hello,
I have upgraded to Android 4.1.2 and my Kernel is JZ054K.I9100XWLSD. Since the upgrade I face problems with bluetooth. Everytime I conncect via bluetooth to our car telephone system (Audi), I get connected. After 30s I get reconnected than connected again. I had version 4.0.4 before and did not have any problems with bluettooth connections to my car. Does anyone have an idea? Does the 4.1.2 in general has this problem? How to fix it?
Thank you very much for any suggestion ort support!
That's strange. How did you update? Does is connect as rSAP or only with Handsfree profile? Did you already try to remove the pairing from the car and to do a new pairing?
I updated three days ago using KIES from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 and I do not have any problems with connection to my VW FSE Premium. Everything is working like before I didn't even need to do a re-pairing, the old configuration was still working.

I updated via WiFi. Re-paring was not necessary. I switched not to visibility from 2 Minutes to always. Need to see, if this helps.
I do not need to set/change the visibility on my phone. I switch on bluetooth and when I enter my car, the car "takes" the sim card. When I switch off bluetooth or leave my car, the phone is getting access back to the sim card.

I've had similar issues with my SGS2 on ICS and now with 4.1.2 (XXLSJ). I'm convinced the problem is a combination of the phone's current processes and how often the car kit retries to connect. I have a Parrot based bluetooth kit factory fitted in my 2006 Mitsubishi. It usually connects within about 20 seconds of starting the car. It often won't connect for about a minute and sometimes doesn't connect at all (maybe 1 in 20 times). When it doesn't connect, I turn off bluetooth in the SGS2 wait about 15 seconds and turn it back on. It usually connects again without touching the car kit.
I've noticed that if I unpair the car kit at the SGS2, the car kit will try to reconnect about once a minute and the phone makes a noise to tell me that something is trying to connect.
Recently I took a vacation and rented a 2012 Toyota Camry and paired my SGS2 to its bluetooth. The phone connected faultlessly very time, there were no issues.
My theory is that if the phone is busy with some process or another when the bluetooth kit tries to connect, it misses the connection. If the kit retries several times (I'm guessing the Toyota kit did this), then there seem to be no issues.
I can only guess that if the SGS2 bluetooth stack is given a higher priority it would be less likely to miss the connection. Clearly that's impractical because bluetooth only needs to connect (maybe) 3-5 times a day and may exclude a more frequently used process.
Just my 2 cents worth - I hope that helps

Actually, we own two SGS2 phones: Both pair with our Audi telephone kit. The first reconnects after 30 sec./ 1 minute and then reconnects. The later stays connected. However, if I try to use the phone to dial a number via the Audi telephone unit.....the Audi telephone unit starts to dial and then stucks. The first phone is able to dial.....as I have seen in the web others seem to have the same problem with SGS 2 4.1.2. I even bought BLUETOOTH KEEPALIVE...no succces. With version 4.0.4 neither of the phones had a problem with paring with the Audi device. Any other ideas?
Same for me
Im also having the same issue, I have a SEAT Altea and after upgrading to JB on my S2 i have exatly the same issue.
Connecting to the Blue Tooth now takes a lot longer than previously and i get a rapid reconnection about every 30 seconds or so (could be slightly longer i havent measured it). There is no disconnect sound from the hands free though only a conneciton sound.
Please post if you find a resolution to the issue.
Regards.

Problems with Bluetooth
Hi All,
I have the same problem. I upgraded to 4.1.2 recently and immediately after all was OK. However now it has developed a new problem.
It will connect to the Car Bluetooth and will play music however the minute I start a call it will only use the small speaker designed for when you hold it to your ear. I will not allow me to press the headset button and will not automatically switch to headset/Bluetooth. This is seriously irritating and I have tried all the usual options of rebooting and unpairing etc. but to no avail...
Your pearls of wisdom would be gratefully received

I report the same issue between my SGS2 and my '04 BMW 3-series.
With the 4.0.3 ICS no problems: the phonebook is shared correctly and visibile with the car, without loosing the connection.
Starting from 4.1.2 JB I'm not able to keep up the connection for more than 30 seconds, and I cannot read also the phonebook: in this way the phone cannot be used in the car.
The only way to have JB and the bluetooth working togheter is to install a custom ROM (4.2.2 SuperNexus or RootBox 4.2).
Try it!:good:
Install File Manager which can access system files
go to System/etc/bluetooth
in file called main.conf add
IdleTimeout=0
save file - it worked for me

[Q] Galaxy [email protected] - most Bluetooth devices don't work, not even Samsungs EI-GP20;

Hi,
I have a Galaxy S3 LTE with StockROM and it's not rooted. I am not allowed to unlock it.
I know that something around BT has changed with the Upgrade to 4.2 or 4.3.
My BT game-pad IPEGA PG-9017 and my mini BT keyboard don't work anymore. I could pair booth but I don't get any reaction on the phone.
I still could connect the S3 with my cars radio via BT and it works. But before I also could use the radios controls to skip forth and back on the phone/spotify. Now I have to do it on the phone.
Now I bought Samsungs Gamepad EI-GP20. I could pair it but I can't get it to run. I don't know it EI-GP20 is a normal game-pad. But when I paired it with another smartphone and I immediately saw that the phone reacts to it.
To get my IPEGA to run I read http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2033780 . I installed BlueIMEZ and another APK which name I forgot. I didn't help.
I have the feeling that BT settings or IMEs are screwed up.
Is there anything I could do or check without having root? Does anyone have an idea what I might overlook?
note: Samsung screwed up the update for the S3

[HELP] Problem with bluetooth paring…

Hello,
A month ago I restored my phone to factory settings (Android 7.0 device Samsung S6 Edge). Unfortunately, after resetting all settings, apps, and contacts, the device does not want to connent with a car speakerphone. Before resetting the phone also was android 7.0, pairing with the car and making audio connections worked properly, now after the PIN pairing device is disconnected ... I will add other phones are connented without problems with the car's bluetooth system.
What may be the problem….?

problem with Parrot car kit anyone?

So all my other phones work fine with the Parrot MKi9200. Except the ROG.
I'm going to try describing my experience as best I can. Wanting to see if anyone is having the same issues (with other asus phones even) and has found a solution.
First time I tried connecting, the bluetooth code popped up, I entered the default code and attempted pairing but the Parrot has too many paired devices so it was rejecting the ROG
so i cancelled the pairing and went into the Parrot to delete old devices
Tried pairing again but this time, it no longer asks for the code
The pairing appears to be successful on the Parrot, the phone says it's connected but when I try playing anything, there is no sound at all
I've tried forgetting the connection on the phone and then pairing again. and strangely enough, it no longer asks for the code, which is abnormal
The Parrot has no record of the ROG as a paired device so there is nothing I can do from that end
On the phone I then tried clearing bluetooth cache
setting org.coreaudio something bluetooth to not be optimised for battery
tried pairing a random headphone with the phone and it works just fine
