Hi all
Does anyone have any issues streaming audio to their car. I can connect my Mate 10 Pro no problem and take calls, however I can't seem to be able to stream music - using Amazon Music.
I have had a look in developer options and everything is set as default - ie i've not changed them.
Any ideas?
TIA
I can, I'm using a Pioneer AVH head-unit if that matters.
Spotify and the stock Music player plays fine, however sometimes it pauses for about .5 seconds (like it does that every 5-10 songs).
I'm using the BMW OEM headunit. One thing i have noticed is that if oyu go into the options of the paired device, you have Phone, Media and Contacts. The Phone and Contacts are on, no problem, but the media switches on and off as though its trying to connect but fails. Don't know if its the phone or the BMW unit......didn't have any issues with my Nexus 6P though

Yeah, that happened to mine.
Was trying to initiate a call from the HU, but it's not working since the phone switch was turned off automagically.
I re-paired it and it was fine after that. Try to unpair the pair again.

tried that, still no joy
I have the same problem with mate 10 pro and Toyota yaris. The phone it fine but the music don't play. Don't work anythings...
I try many time to pair the phone with our succes
My Mate 10 Pro streams fine on Mazda MZD. Sometimes it doesnt show the track/album information. After switching BT of/on its repaired.
Another problem is that the phone always starts the original music app (which is nice but not enough configurable).
I use Poweramp as default player and have to start it manually after killing huawei music.

Had the same issue with audi mmi 3g+ System but restarting the phone resolved it - media connected by itself. I didnt do no unpairing. Same paired device which failed to stream spotify (media kept switching to off when tried to manually set it on) started streaming with no issues after rebooting the phone.
Funny thing is that sometimes bt media reconnects fail when switching car off for couple minutes,like for example you have everything going fine and you stop at the gas station bt media wont reconnect although you left the bt running while away for 5min with contacts and phone connecting fine, but I found a workaround for that stuff - with car swtiched off simply toggle bt off on and it will connect fine after you come back and start your car. This hasnt hapenned on the latest firmware though,but nonetheless I shared my finding since the toggle thing is still a better solution than restarting the phone everytime media connect fails.

On my mate 10 it hapenned only on the first run (bt stream to car stereo). After I started playing Spotify and closed default Music app it always auto starts Spotify when I reconnect to car stereo through bt (Spotify is never closed on my phone but car connect to Spotify no matter if its on play or pause - if its on play music continues on car stereo if its on pause car stereo leaves it on pause but in that situation audio ID loads only when I hit Play on the phone).
Hey everyone, I'm not having any connectivity issues with bluetooth but what I have noticed is the bluetooth audio seems "lower" in comparison to how my Mi Max sounds in my car. Any remedy or solution for that or am I stuck with the low-ish audio I'm getting from the device in the car for the moment?
Hi
I am using to connect to Camry (asia) 2017.... The song plays and can select next track...however, this is the problem that I encounter.
1) the song name does not update when I select the next song... it is always stuck in the first song. ?
2) the volume always go to minimal on my M10. when I switched to bluetooth connect...... ... This does not happen on my Huawei P8, in which when I switch between radio and bluetooth, the phone always remain the same volume scale.
3) I have select the APPmenu but this is always failed when I pair with Mate10...
I have tried to pair in many ways : car to phone, phone to car but does not work for item 1.
Not sure if Mate 10 has issue on other bluetooth devices in other car model. ?
Thank in advance.
I driving Mazda car, and huawei really got a big issue, especially Bluetooth, my previous phone Sony Z2 works fine without any issues while the huawei mate 10 I just changed just had problems just like u guys, for now what I always do is to restart phone every day 1 time, and it works fine for me, but sometimes it have some laggy issue when I was pairing with my headphone, and the Bluetooth signal tbh, weak. Well that's the only solution I can provide to u guys tho
Had the same problem with my mate 10. Head unit is alpine ut-72bt . On the head unit the symbols for network and battery were there but on the display was shown NO UNIT. The music from the phone was not getting thru. I spent 1h pairing repairing , firmware update , reset. Nothing really worked. After I restarted the phone everything begin to work accordingly. Maybe will help somebody.

Same for me when playing music on my car head unit, using any music app. I mostly use Spotify. This car doesn't have this issue with any other handsets.
Same problem for me since last update
Did b142 fix these issues for anyone?
I was having similar issue - couldn't listen to Google Play Music in my Bluetooth headphones, phone and contacts are on, but media won't enable. Got it working by starting the preinstalled music app and running a song in it. After that works fine.

Hi,
A couple of weeks ago, MW600 was working as expected. But at the moment, I've got connection problems. Is anyone experiencing anything similar, or do you have any tips?
I have tried restarting both the phone and the MW. The radio function works perfectly. I have tried renaming my phone.
Here's what I'm doing:
* Turn on MW
* Turn on bluetooth on phone
* Search for units -> pair the two units using code 0000 (starting from scratch, just in case)
* Phone states that MW is connected to phone and media sound
* If mediascape is playing, I hear ~1 second of media sound
* After 1-3 seconds, MW makes a sound (5 descending tones) -> the phone briefly states that MW is connected to media sound only -> the phone goes back to stating that the two units are paired (no connection)
What do you think?
Mine doesn't do that, so it's quite odd.. Do a full reset of the MW600 (manual here: turn off, press and hold down power until pairing indication appears, press power and call buttons simultaneously until headset turns off), delete it form the phone and try again. There's no reason for it to do that.
I found the battery life to be a bit short....10 minutes of streaming music and it shut off, all this after overnight charging.....I have repeat this 'issue' Friday night, Saturday and Sunday only to have MW600 dead at the office now
My runs 12-15 hours! Without any Problems.
Same, I can use mine for at least 4 days (about one and a half hours a day) before it needs recharging - are you using the right charger?

You press the buttons on the MW600 itself, not on the phone. Read the manual that I linked to, it's all in there.
hmm anyone else have problem with the ringtone playing thru the mw600? when the phone rings. i can hear it ring on the bt headset. but it's like play a bit.. then i hear a beep.. then it plays a bit more.. and beep it's like intermittent
The beep means, that the headset is changing from the mediamode to the telephonemode.
Update... The problem above came back. If seems related to using bluetooth and wifi simultaneously. Whenever I'm using BT and enable wifi, BT gets a lot of problems and usually shuts down. Does this happen to anyone else?
Also, in the past I could use the buttons on the headset to change songs etc. That doesn't work anymore, even after resetting the headset etc. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Update... Problem keeps coming back. My supplier suggested that BT and wifi might interfere. I'd be very surprised if a "smartphone" cannot play music over bluetooth and surf using wifi at the same time. My supplier promised to check it out and get back to me... That was ~2 weeks ago.
Is ANYONE else experiencing the same problem? Can you listen to music over BT, then enable wifi, connect to a network, and keep listening to music over BT?

I have wifi on 24h/day and most of the time i don't have any problems but sometime they get disconnected and i have to turn off/on BT and everything runs fine after.
I will have to try without wifi
Bluetooth and Wireless LAN (WiFi) both uses the same frequency space (~2.5 GHz)
Most of the times Bluetooth should be smart enough to adjust the frequency to co-exist with WiFi devices.
If your area are crowded with other Bluetooth devices and WiFi access-points, the Bluetooth set might having trouble settle on one quiet frequency, and might just sit there trying to switch frequency all the time, never finding a good frequency to settle on.
To help those poor Bluetooth devices along the way, try to change the WiFi access-points channels to create a free channel where the Bluetooth devices can settle on.
Also check if your WiFi access-points have a "Co-exist with Bluetooth" option, and enable it. It will however reduce the frequency-width and therefore the bandwidth slightly on the WiFi, but Bluetooth devices should work with less interruptions.
Connection problem with s60
Hello!
I have an MW600 as well - using with an s60 symbian nokia (6650 fold).
It works corectly when using in bt mode and listening music from the phone, but it alwways lost connection when turm the handsfree to radio. When listening radio, zthere is no connection, no way to get the calls or answer.
Do somebady have the same problem or somebody know how to solve it?
I did reset on mw600 and paired again, but i have the same problem.
á
i haven't had any problems with my MW. i always stream music from my pc via wifi to my X10, then to my MW via BT, witch is connected to a Reciver for party.
have you tryed restarting your MW after pairing.
My problem with this headset is that it doesn't:
1) caller name not displayed on incoming calls
2) Music/Mp3 tags not displayed on lcd (using Poweramp)
3) why does the phones itself rings not the headset just some beeps. Embarrassing when phone rings and then answer on headset.
Resetted but not solved any problems.

Ok I m using mw600 stereo bluetooth headset with CM 6.1.3 V4.4 rom for 2 days now. The pairing is easy but the issues that I am facing are;
* phone has crashed/rebooted couple of times while pairing/ unpairing.
* besides first fact, it pairs without any problems and very easily.
* I have used it with mixzing and doubletwist media players. In both cases the music lags and sometimes the lag/pause is about 2-3 seconds long.
* incoming call shows phone number only, no contact name.
* voice dialing works.
* when I m listening to music or not listening to music on incoming call the headset converts to phone mode fine but after the call is finished, the headset doesnt reverts back to media mode that is, the music doesn't plays again and I tried connecting and disconnecting again but only way to make it work again is restart the headset.
* battery is so far ok for the headset. Infact I runned out of my phone battery while I was trapped in underground and listening to music.lol
* even the headset is connected, if I play youtube video, the sound comes from the phone speaker. In order for it to come from headset I have to play some music from using my headset controls and then play the video and then pause the track. This also happens with music app aswell sometimes. Like the headset is connected and if I play the song using my phone, it will play through phone speaker and I have to pause it and play it using my headset controls in order to listen through my headset.
So far its oki but its annoying the laggy music thing. It only occours in music playback, I spoke to my mate on phone for couple of hours using this headset and both ends could listen loud and clear.
i also paired it with my inspiron duo tablet and its working flawlessly....so anyone have any work around of the above mentioned problems? anyone facing the same problems? is it because i am using custom ROM? i am ok with the headset not showing song tags and stuff but music being laggy is not acceptable...because thats what i bought it for!
Any help would be much appreciated?
thanks
Hi,
I have the following problem:
Everytime I pair my Samsung Galaxy SII I9000 with my car (Renault Fluence 2012) and its built in bluetooth System, it says that it's correctly paired (and honestly it doesnt even take a minute to pair correctly), but it plays no music. It just has no sound (even when the song is playing correctly on the phone) but everything else just works perfect. I mean, i can control the music (songs, playlists, etc) from my car, but the sound just wont come out. The only way to make it work is to 'unlock' the sound by calling someone. So when the call starts, then the audio starts working. That is, so far, the only way to make it work. And i have to do it EVERY SINGLE TIME that i turn on the car or that the device stops being paired with my car.
It does EXACTLY the same thing with my bluetooth headphones (Motorola S305), so I realized it was my phone. I have tried other phones with my car and they work just fine. I have tried other things with my headphones too (like my Psvita) and they work smoothly.
The weird thing about it, is that my phone used to work perfectly fine with both things, and just a random day it decided not to work anymore.
I used kies and re-installed android from 0, and that solved the problem for a few days and then it all started again. I have tried cleaning all the bluetooth devices that my phone is paired with. Going back to factory settings in my car, removing the battery on the phone, resetting the phone, taking everything out (including the sim card( everything. And nothing seems to work.
Please, help!
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy SII with Android 2.3.6 (it came with 2.3.3 and i upgrade it twice through kies) I have never rooted my phone or done anything to it, except for upgrading Android through Kies.
Thanks so much!!!

Wow... That's very strange. First off, I'd be looking at compatibility issues. Do you have the BT specs for the car? Maybe they're the same as the headset and not quite 100% compatible with the phone.
Another possibility (although remote) is that the headset and the car are fighting over which gets to talk to your phone because phone services are much different than A2DP (Audio).
You might just have a flaky BT antenna in your device, or a bad (stock) modem/baseband.
I'd try rooting and see if a different modem/baseband clears up the issue. Then at least you'll know what the deal is.
Hey, I also found this on the Renault web site... http://www.renault.co.uk/bluetooth/default.aspx
>> Why does my telephone not reconnect to the system when the vehicle is started?
- In order for your telephone to automatically connect when the vehicle is started, it may be necessary to activate the automatic Bluetooth connection function on your telephone with the hands-free kit. For details on how to do this, please refer to the instructions manual for your telephone.
- Upon reconnection and if there are several telephones paired within the hands-free kit reception area, it is the one that was paired last that will be connected even if it is outside of the vehicle.
So it looks like it might actually be a Renault AND a Motorola problem.
There's also a list of compatibility files at the bottom of that page based on the system you have.
First of all, thanks so much for your help.
The problem with whats going on with my phone, is that it used to work just fine before, with those 2 things (my car and my headphones) Its not like they never worked, they used to work completely fine with my phone.
And i never use them together, like my headphones have never even come close to my car. And since i thought that it could have been a problem with they 'fighting' with each other, even if they werent close, i erased all the cache on my bluetooth settings and unpaired all devices that were ever set with my phone.
So its like if i had never used bluetooth. That obviously didnt work either
It turns out that your car likely keeps up to 5 phones in memory... Is there a way to clear the phone list in the car as well? Then re-pair from scratch on both sides?
well either the blueth is defect or ur doing some wrong settings,root ur device there r plenty of bt apps tht work more powerfull than the default...y possible ur car mus hav a reset buttun for bt so delete all pairs frm phone an reset ur car bt,,,,then start fresh.....hope it helps
I restored my car's settings and deleted every phone paired. That didnt work either... I also tried with a friends phone (iphone 4) and that worked completely fine...

Time for a warranty replacement I think.
Jeez... thats exactly what i was trying to avoid, because my cellphone company will have me waiting for like a month without my phone and will give me in return the ****tiest phone ever while they try to fix it and then realize they cant.

thanks anyway for your help!
Hi,
*
Since the beginning I am in trouble with the Lumia 920, and the Bluetooth pairing to my car (Ford).
I use the bluetooth connection for phone calls and music. For the phone part, no worries.
*
But, for the music part, it's a bit disastrous. When I switch on my car's "BT Audio", so unfortunately I was not already in the app XBox Music, or my music was not already paused, the phone hangs ! Impossible to meet the screen during several minutes. If I don't forget to open the XBox Music app before, it works...
Yesterday, the phone even rebooted while playing music. This morning, bluetooth was disconnected several times.
*
I've never encountered this kind of problem on any of my smartphones, whether Android or Windows Phone (Lumia 800 and 900 included). Thinking that I had a hardware problem, I had to exchange the Lumia 920 by another...but I am in the same !
Anyone else experiencing this trouble? It seems to be a software bug ... I hope it will be fixed soon

Before I FUBAR'd my 920 it was working perfectly with my Toyota Bluetooth.
Does your car have SYNC? If so, that's VERY odd since it's powered by Microsoft. If not, maybe your Bluetooth needs an update? I just got a new car and my previous one, also a Toyota, used Blulogic for the Bluetooth. It was HORRIBLE!
I am actually also having problems even with taking or making a phonecall in my car with the 920 .. worked fine with my Titan but now it's simply not transferring sound anymore.
I don't care about the BT Audio for music but at least the Phone part should be working?!
I have a WIPCOM 3D - Peugeot.
Will test some more later today and see if I can get it to work properly.
Summary to now:
Connection: works
Addressbook transfer: works
Sound when making a phonecall: dead.
Same issue here
I am having the same issues and thought it was the new phone. I even did a factory reset of the 920, but am still having issues. The phone will play a song, and then audio just goes dead as if paused or lock up totally. Very frustrating. I had no problems with my old iPhone 4. This also happens with the Nokia GPS app with either stuttering audio or no audio at all for the turn by turn voice prompts.
bluetooth stuttering
My 920 works great on calls...audio however...every 3 or 4 minutes sometimes longer sometimes shorter...the song starts stuttering until I either unlock my phone or hit pause button on my Clarion headunit then hit play again it will be fine for another 3 or 4 min....

Whats up everyone... I've had this phone for a few months now and can say it's easily the best I've ever had.
The only "issue" to speak of that I've found is when my phone connects to my car bluetooth, it doesn't always automatically play. I've tried clearing/resetting pairing, all sorts of different music players (power amp, google play, android basic, etc), even tried to utilize the Smart Connect native app in the phone to start the music player app when connected. I have all available options checked related to automatically playing music on bluetooth connect.
Bottom line, the problem is intermittent, frustrating, and I can't seem to figure it out. Is anyone else out there have a similar issue or have any tips related to this?

What stereo system do you have in your car? I have the Pioneer AVH-X4500BT in my car and each time I start my car up, it searches to auto connect to my phone. Once it does and I have it on Bluetooth Audio mode, it plays whatever song I just had played on my phone.

Also have a Pioneer head unit BT6400 I believe. Have used it with my past 3 phones... motorola and HTC without issue. The behavior you've described is the way all have worked in the past. Now, for whatever reason, sometimes it does not auto play.

Were there any changes you've applied to your phone? Safe bet is to clear out the BT connection in memory and connect as if new. Also try to limit to just one music player on the phone. Because I think it would automatically run off of Walkman, but other players can interfere.
Hey everyone,
I've seen a few mentions of this issue but would like to have a thread to specifically discuss it and maybe find a resolution.
After pairing a bluetooth music device for the first time it will play just fine.
Come back some time later, the device reconnects automatically but no sound will play (even though your music app shows that the track is playing).
Turn off bluetooth, or just disable media streaming for the device, turn back on/reenable and sound comes back.
This is an extremely annoying issue that wasn't present on my last Android 5.x.x device. I'll forget about it until I'm driving and then have to wait until I stop to safely restart bluetooth.
Please let's keep this topic reserved for this specific bluetooth issue. If you have a different issue please start another thread.
My device: Spring LG G5 (LS992) on 6.0.1
Notes so far:
Simply restarting the phone doesn't fix it.
Unconfirmed - Happens only after switching bluetooth devices (going from your car, to your home stereo, and then back out in the car). I switch vehicles a lot for my job.
Suggestion here is to clear app data for Google Connectivity Services. Will try today.
Like mentioned in the other topic I might have the same issue on my Nexus 5 (2013) with Android 6.0.1 and parrot carkit. How is your Bluetooth volume on the phone when you start playing music? To me it seemed to be worse when Bluetooth volume was muted actually.

I have the same problem. Came from a G4, which worked fine playing pandora in my car. On my G5, I start pandora on the dash app, it opens on the phone in accessory mode as normal. Everything looks like it's playing ...dash shows what's playing and all, but no sound. I haven't tried the restarting bluetooth/media audio on the bluetooth device settings, but I'll try that after work to confirm it's the exact same problem.
I have been experiencing this issue on my LG G5. I have phone audio, but no media audio. The car display shows whatever is playing on the phone, including the time code as a song advances for instance, but no sound. I have checked in bluetooth settings to ensure both phone and audio are on. I've disconnected and reconnected. It did work 1 time, but that's it. I've had the phone for a little over 2 weeks and its fully updated.
I have the Same issue in my car, everytime i need to disable/Enable Bluetooth to get Sound working.

Bluetooth has been the one problem I have with this phone. I lose connectivity to my Moto 360, my headphones need to be unpaired before I can use them again, it's seriously driving me nuts.
I am having momentary phone audio cut out when using my car BT. The radio will come back on for several seconds and the the phone will come back. I am wondering if the VoLTE function might have something to do with this. I have disabled VoLTE so I can test it although I really have no clue if it is related.
I believe this has to do with having 2 devices connected. The 1st will act as phone connection and the 2nd as audio only. The phone might think for some reason you still are connected to both or you actually have a lot of range in one of them and remains on.
Disabling VoLTE resolved my problem.

First of all let me say that folks are reporting different issues with Bluetooth. Mine was that when connected in my car I would lose phone audio for 10 or 20 seconds repeatedly. The radio audio would come back on and after a while the phone audio would come back.
VoLTE, as I understand it, allows voice and data simultaneouly. I disabled it on my G5 under settings/call/VoLTE. Once you disable it you will no longer see "HD" displayed in you dialer links. My problem resolved completely. I called T-mo this morning and cancelled my replacement handset.

If you disable that, you lose Band 12 in America on T-Mobile, which I need since I drive through some pretty backwoods places where Band 12 is my only way not to switch to Edge.

VoLTE may not even be your related to your problem. I would try disabling it just to troubleshoot.
FYI still having to turn bluetooth off and on very often.
It does only seem to happen when I connect from one device to another i.e. I listen in my car and later that night I use my bluetooth speaker. Phone thinks music is playing on the speaker but no sound from speaker. Turning bluetooth off and back on fixes immediately (after reconnect)

I have the same problem. Came from a G4, which worked fine playing pandora in my car. On my G5, I start pandora on the dash app, it opens on the phone in accessory mode as normal. Everything looks like it's playing ...dash shows what's playing and all, but no sound. I haven't tried the restarting bluetooth/media audio on the bluetooth device settings, but I'll try that after work to confirm it's the exact same problem.

I have Sony xperia z3 and only use Bluetooth with one device and have the same issues. Only started with 6.0 upgrade
I have the same problem on my H850:
When I turn on my headset, it will show "connected to call audio" in Bluetooth settings (my bluetooth is always on due to my Pebble smartwatch). No matter how many times I turn on and off my headset, it will always only connect to call audio, despite the option "use for media audio" being activated. If I unpair it and pair it, it connects to both for this one time, before going back to the previous behavior. If I turn bBluetooth off and on again, it will connect to both call and media audio again for this one time before returning to the previous behavior.
Since it's the intl version, there is no VoLTE option.
Is there a way (settings or using an app) to fix this and force the phone to connect media audio every time?
I have the exact same issue, except that I have an android wear watch.
My only solution so far is disabling call audio for the G5 in the Bluetooth definition, but that really sucks.
Have you found any solution?
This is a known issue with LG G5 and the sad thing is that LG doesn't have a clue. Unpairing and repairing is the only solution until Android 7 upgrade. I went as far as resetting to factory defaults, T-Mobile even replaced my device..same issue. **** SOLVED WITH ANDROID 7 ****
I still have the same issue with it showing as playing with no sound and it continues happening even after the Android 7 upgrade. Issue is intermittent, restarting phone or headset or disabling and reenabling BT are only solutions I've found so far. I confirmed the vol is on high on both device and receiver.
Happens on my Kia Soul, Sony SBH50 and SBH52. The only BT devices I don't seem to have the issue with is my old MW600s, so it may be related to BT version on the headsets. May be related to switching devices sometimes, but I've had it occur when using only one device, but having made a call, or left range with the headset away from my G5. Calls still have audio but Stereo/Media BT profile doesn't operate, even though both ends make it seem as if it does.
Thanks,
Peter
