Huawei P20 Pro - EMUI 10 - Car Bluetooth music problem. - EMUI Bugs and Issues

Hi,
Not sure where the issue exactly is, but I bet it must be down to the software itself.
I was using Spotify via bluetooth with my Renault ZOE - R Link 1 with no issues, but suddenly, and I think this was after the update to EMUI 10 (not 100% sure) while playing music over bluetooth to my car the music just pauses after a few seconds, sometimes it is 10 seconds, sometimes it is immediate. The same thing happens with youtube and built in music app, but it does not seem to happen while listening to records over facebook messenger or making calls - while doing so everything works as it should.
I have done the obvious which is resetting bluetooth settings and restarting the bluetooth service, deleting app cache and data, reinstalling spotify etc., etc.
The weirdest thing is, that my mate's iPhone works fine with my car, but also my phone works fine with other bluetooth devices, like JBL speakers or so.
I am absolutely clueless what could have happened there and I am also not that technical with Android, so here I am posting my first issue ever on this forum...
Device: Huawei P20 Pro
Model: CLT-L09
Build: 10.0.0.161
EMUI: 10.0.0
Android version: 10

Podcast playback keeps failing when bluetooth connected

This might be a tricky one.
So I have a Oneplus 3, with the new OxygenOS android 7.0 beta installed (Although I had this problem on MM too!).
When I listen to podcasts, it often just either pauses or straight up fails every couple of minutes. This interval is seemingly random, but most times around every 2-20 minutes. This happens with all players I've tested, both BeyondPod and Pocket Casts. This does NOT happen with Spotify or Google play. It also only happens when I have a Bluetooth speaker or Bluetooth headphones connected.
I've tried to turn off all battery optimizations for the App, and I've even tried to completely wipe the device and install a new recovery. Nothing seems to work.

Bluetooth streaming Audio - car stereo

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.

Reboots when using bluetooth audio

Hello, my phone keeps rebooting when I'm listening to music via bluetooth. It doesn't happen everytime but randomly. I guess I had around 10 reboots in the last 2 month. Can anyone confirm reboot problems?
I use my V30 to listen to music over bluetooth every day during my commute and I don't recall a single reboot. You may want to provide your phone variant and the OS version. Also, what application are you using when the reboot happens.
Sent from my LG-H933 using Tapatalk
I stream a lot also...no rebooting!
Thanks for the feedback. I'm using the default music player.
My phone is Android 7.1.2, Kernel 4.4.63, Build N2G47H, Software Version V11m-EUR-XX
Hardware: Model LG-H930, Rev. 1.1
Today again, I got in my car, activated bluetooth and after 20 seconds -> reboot. Just contacted the reseller that I would like to send it back.
Well six months in and my V30 started to reboot itself randomly. Sometimes while browsing Chrome, sometimes from the camera app. This is BS.

Bluetooth Audio issue

I have this little problem with my new Huawei.
(I have a Mate 10 Pro, couldn't find a section for that specific model)
Whenever I connect it to my car or Bluetooth headphones, the audio from my phone will randomly switch from my car speakers or my headphones to the phone speakers. The only way to get it outputting audio through the Bluetooth device again, is by reseting my Bluetooth connection. However, it does this every time and its driving me insane.
Can someone help me with this? Thanks in advance.
Hello
Try to remove all bluetooth devices associated on your phone.
Then associate Bluetooth with your car
Do not try to associate other devices for the moment.
Then try to listen music from your car to speakers of your car
If it's ok, then associate other devices and try again to watch if all is allright
This is a known bug that has been around since release, there is nothing you could do to fix it.
This is by far worst Bluetooth implementation I ever saw in android
On top of Your problem mine stops sending call logs to the car randomly and restart or re pair are only option to mend it
So strange ! I'have never had problems with bluetooth audio with my car !
Except if decide to receive the conversations sound on my Bluetooth smartwach.
Android don't like to have 2 bluetooth devices connected for sound at the same time
All the top cell phones are having blue tooth issues...just google it. It is not unique to this phone.
I have the same phone and issue and this is still not fixed ! Has someone found a workaround?
My mate 10 Pro works fine in my car, no issues at all. It works fine on Android Auto too. Yet in my parents' car, Android Auto won't work at all; I just get a black screen.
I guess these problems are often between two specific pieces of hardware rather than a general fault with the phone, so quite difficult for manufacturers like Huawei to fix everything. But if I had my parents' car, I'd be pretty pissed!
This is a known issue with EMUI and it has to do with EMUI killing processes in the background in the name of battery optimization. If your music player is in the background or your screen is turned off, EMUI will situationally kill or freeze bluetooth/audio related processes.
If rooted, use either Titanium Backup or Service Disabler to freeze/disable the Power Genius app. This app is responsible for EMUI's battery optimization measures (but the battery life on my Mediapad improved when I disabled it). If not rooted, you might or might not be able to do this via adb.
Other solutions include plugging in a charger, or leaving your screen on.
(edit - you have to reboot after disabling Power Genius, merely disabling it will not immediately change anything)

[EMUI] 10 found a problem

Hi XDAdevelopers,
So i recently updated my Huawei Mate 20 PRO to EMUI 10, and i am happy in general with the new features that this new update provides, but i have found as well a problem, so i always used Apple Airpod and it worked always perfectly, but after the new EMUI 10 update i cannot say the same, while watching videos everything is still great, but the problem is actually during calls, the audio and the mic quality became really poor, specially while using Discord.
I have tried restart the phone, unpair the airpods and even change the Bluetooth AVRCP Version, and still this problem persists.
If you guys know a way to fix this or if you have found the same problem with other Bluetooth earplugs or headset share here so we can find a way to fix.
Thank you
Hi, another Bluetooth problem here.
My Plantronics headset was working great on emui 9.
Last night my mate 20 pro told me that the update to emui 10 was (at least...) ready to be installed.
Since this update, every time I want to listen to my favorite web radio at this url: cinemaradio(dot)net
When I push on the play button on the main page, on the player at the bottom, I can hear the radio for half a second, then blank, then my head set goes "not connected", then blank, then "headset connected".
I tried reboot, re-pairing without success.
Any guess?
