Bluetooth Media not available in my car - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Hello !
I didn't manage to have Bluetooth media in my car (BMW 3 2012).
My old iPhone was working fine, when an alert was incoming in Waze, my phone was calling the car and the voice was on my car audio system.
Now, sound keeps running on the phone, and I don't have media audio option when watching my S9+ parameters in the Bluetooth menu of the BMW, or on the phone.
I'm in France and my Samsung is a double Sim.
I saw different forums with problems of Bluetooth in cars, due to double SIM...
On other phones Android 8.1 seems to solve the problem...
Does anyone experience the same problem ?
Thanks for your help !

BT problem - Car audio system won't play ringtone

I recently connected my S3 (Mini, latest software) to a 2012 Nissan Qashqai and its Connect-system via Bluetooth. While my previous Nokia phones have worked perfectly with Nissan cars, my phone did not. There is no problems with calling or answering calls, and my contacts are automatically loaded to the car. The problem is that when a call comes, my phone plays my ringtone and the car's audio system plays an annoying and loud, generic ringtone. In other words, I get two separate ringtones when a call arrives to my car, one from my phone and one from my car's audio system.
I've tried to research this issue, and apparently I'm not the only Galaxy-owner suffering from it. Alas, I've found no solutions to this problem. I've found no settings for phone audio settings in the Nissan Connect menu and, similarly, I've found no settings for BT devices from the S3. As Nissan isn't the only car brand with this issue, I don't think I need to change my car.
Do you have any suggestion? Could there be a workaround or even an app that would help? Or is S3 and its BT-software simply incompatible with Nissan Connect, and there is nothing I can do about it?

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.

Bluetooth car stereo connecting as "(no phone)"

Hello,
Need some help with phone calls not passing through Bluetooth to my car stereo.
It's a new stereo, the old one died, but I could make/receive calls with it without any problems.
The new stereo recognises BT media audio, but not phone calls (incoming or outgoing).
The BT settings screen shows the car stereo as "Connected (no phone)"
I am using [ROM][Slim][6.0.1][AOSP_r74][Slim 6 For Kenzo][21/11/2016] and I saw two posts here and here from @DoubleDroz experiencing the same issue.
I would ask at that thread, but unfortunately it has been locked by @Umang96.
I've seen this problem mentioned before with some ROMs.
I know the phone's BT works fine because it worked with the previous car stereo only yesterday (and it works with the new stereo for media audio).
I've tried a few apps from the PlayStore but nothing sorted the issue.
Ideally, I'd like to stick with this ROM, old as it might be, as I find it just fine for my needs (I don't play any games, it's work only).
But if I have to install a different ROM to get bluetooth calls in the car I will because it is a necessity.
I don't want to install MIUI though, can't stand it.
I would use Krexus-CAF if it hadn't the issues with GPS navigation, which is also a necessity.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Hi, i found fix for bluetooth "NO PHONE" on car set. It's work on latest LOS rom. Follow this post.

Streaming audio problems with jvc kd-r801

After having lots of phones connecting to my carsystem JVC KD-R801, having zero problems, all of a sudden a completely strange problem popped up since I'm using the Honor 9.
Connection the phone to the carsystem is no problem, using it as audio source for navigation and having/receiving calls works flawlessly.
BUT: streaming audio from ANY audio app (Soundcloud, Mixcloud, Hearthis.it, Audible, Tunein, PowerAMP) shows a continues flashing screen. The carstereo it's buttons are almost impossible to use during that time.
Audio workss fine though! But it looks like the Honor 9 battery drains way faster than using eg. bluetooth headphones.
Testing different apps and settings doesn't solve anything.
As I've never had this problem with other devices (Sony Z5 Compact, Huawei P8-lite, HTC M7, Iphone 5, Honor 7) I personally can only conclude 2 possible reasons:
- Honor 9 has -yet- unknown bluetooth problems
- My car stereo supporting bluetooth options are to limited for Bluetooth 4.2 devices
Any suggestions how I could solve this problem (besides the obvious; investing in a new car stereo) ?
Have a similar problem. When i play with proplayer-app + bluetooth and display is switched off then after 30 secs. or so. bluetooth stops working.
Seems that bluetooth is disabled after a while when display is off.

amazfit bip Bluetooth headset problems

Hi Guys
I've been running an Amazfit bip with a OnePlus 5T for about a week and I have noticed that I can no longer make voice calls with any Bluetooth devices. I have tried 2 devices and both will let me stream audio and even rings through my car speakers but refuses to route voices once answered.
I've gone through the Bluetooth settings on the phone and it will not longer let me select the box for voice calls for the headset and car
Thanks in advance
I am having the same issue. I am testing today removing the phone rights to all applications for the bip.
Pixel 1 32g
PPR2.181005.003 aka pie
So far so good, my BT headphones work. And the BIp still shows when calls are coming in.
hi, i'm facing the exact same issue. can you give more details on how you resolved this? thanks!
