heylo everyone,
experiencing a issue which had become a pain !
i have a ford figo with OEM stero (India) which is an awesome one. i had a SE ARC before i moved to HTC One X and with Arc, once paired, there was absoultely no problem ever to pair it again, all i had to do was to switch the bluetooth on and it used to connect.
with HOX, i have a major issue, the first time, it connected flawlessly, was able to make calls, play music from phone thru bluetooth on the stero system. but then comes the problem! it doesnt work the next time, i tried to delete the pairing on both car and phone but with no joy.. i did a factory reset and it again worked once.. next time, it says its connected, but when i play music, it plays on the phone's speakers, i went to music player settings and tried to select the player as bluetooth but doesnt make any difference... i read couple of people having similar but not same problem, some have crackling issue, some are unable to connect, but this is strange, able to connect but only once.. i havent formatted the phone again for this and its a little cumbersome as all my music is on phone and i always used to use the phone to play music.
any help will be much appericiated
I have the same with an after market Sony.
Really erratic pairing. Always pair's phone but not media.
Have to randomly switch it on and off for a while til I get lucky.

It works the same as my SGS2 on my Infiniti (Nissan) nav system both for phone and media. The One X has BT 4.0 which I'm assuming is backwards compatible but it might be a challenge with some systems/devices.

Barry, Possibly yes, but i beleive new technology is always backward compatible ..
anyone had a fix ? i read about some bluetooth stack fixes, but looks like it was for a previous HTC device and not HOX..
I can fairly pin the issue down to your car audio not playing nice with Bluetooth 4.0. Yes, its backwards compatible, but, that's not always a guarantee. Get some other Bluetooth 4.0 devices to check.

My HTC one x with pair perfectly with my Mazda 6 Bluetooth. only thing is the steering wheel controls won't skip music. quite annoying if the wife's tracks come on!
have you tried restarting the phone when this happens? I happens to me now on the HOX and did happen on my old desire. If I restart the phone all connects fine and can phone and listen to music.... although the music stutters. using an aftermarket sony.

This same problem here with after market Sony MEX-BT3800U.
Before I use to have Desire HD, which was fine, now it's a nightmare.
Maybe somebody have more luck with different after market model which works perfectly with HOX ?
Mine is a Sony unit too... Possibly that one off the top of my head. It's annoying as sound quality via aux in is awful due to the low volume

Got the same problem in my Mitsubishi Outlander navigation system.Don't know why.Must be the version of the bluetoot that you'r car isn't recognizing it.You can try to do a factory reset of you'r car stereo,i did that the other day and now seems that it's working well,don't know the reason why.I think that it's the cars fault because the bluetooth headset that i use doesn't seem to have any problems working or connecting to my HTC.Even if you have open "slots" in your car to connect you'r phone,the car doesn't whipe the data of the last phones you used on it,that is why i am saying to do a factory reset.I don't know if you can do it yourself,i went with my car at the Mitsubishi Service,they conected the computer,reseted the navigation system,connected my phone and now works.
I find it ridiculous that a £150 Sony head unit has issues, wheras I have a £20 Nokia cheap bluetooth headset that works flawless, thats a good few years old.
Solved ! Bluetooth Issue when connecting with OEM Car music system
Finally this is solved for me after the 1.28.720.10 Update it now connects flawlessly and works like charm everytime anyone else who had problems tried this ?
Mine works fine with my Ford OEM headunit.

I havent had the update yet so will have to wait for that to try i guess
Mine takes agaes to pair to car BT and then doesnt connect when in range
Same problem here with a Sony head unit.
Phone profile connects flawlessly every time
Media profile seems random (though I have better luck if I leave the head unit on and switch bluetooth off and on again on the phone)
My software version is 1.28.401.9 so I guess I'll sit tight for an update and hope it cures it. I get nothing new if I try to trigger an update, so it's probably a case of waiting for HTC to pull their fingers out
Mine works great with my Sony head unit and am on 1.26.206.2 (o2) I even stream my music flawlessly phone calls work can you not take ur handset back and say its not working and exchange it for another 1

i have a mazda 3 and i have the same issue! i checked the heck out of these forums and havent seen anyone reporting the same issue i have, i was beginning to wonder if it was just me.....
has anyone else had issues with track advancing etc? not just with cars but with other devices like headphones or bt boomboxes? i wonder if the issue persists across devices.
has anyone gotten this to work with the HOX?
I also have weird experiences about the bluetooth-car connection.
On my desire, when i just get in my car, without doing anything else the phone/car would recognize each other and the music on my desire would start playing in the car instantly.
Now on the HOX, phone part always gets connected, no exceptions, media part gets sometimes connected sometimes not, if it gets connected it sometimes starts playing automatically it sometimes does not, and regardless of it plays automatically or not, i sometimes can use the controls on the steering wheel to skip songs and such, but sometimes i cannot.
Any ideas to what is causing these "sometimes"es?
Im on version 1.28.061.9 and mine doesnt connect at all. When pairing it stays on "pairing" for quite a long time and eventually it pairs but then doesnt connect
Tried a second HOX and its the same with that
Hoping that there will be a future update to fix this
This on the OEM bluetooth on a fiat Panda

Hi,
I have a bluetooth phone in my car, when I first connected the HTC Desire HD up, it had no problems, it paired and everything looked fine... around 10 minutes later, I noticed the bluetooth had simply disconnected from the car but was still running on the phone. I tried to reconnect it up to the car but it wouldn't, I then turned it off, and turned it back on.. it struggled to come back on, but after a few attempts it did come on and the car connected again...
About 5 minutes later the same thing happened again. At this point my phone started to really slow down, I looked in watchtower and the bluetooth was at the top of the list, soon as I turned off bluetooth the phone was responding fine again.
I have since tried connecting to the car multiple more times and have contacted HTC about it, but it seems to disconnect at random times.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems? I heard of similar problems with the original desire so wondering whether it could be something similar.
Kev
Hi Kev,
I am having similar problems with my Desire HD and Audi in car bluetooth system. I posted on another forum and found others were finding the same...
I pair my phone and within couple of minutes the phone has disconnected and won't re-connect.
Not found any definitive answer as yet, but seems BT in this phone isn't so good. Also read a post saying HTC were aware of this but an update wouldn't be available for sometime.
Hopefully someone else can shed some light!

I also noticed this the last few days with my Bury CC9056 carkit. I have my DHD since October 18th, and up till last friday it connected fine. Since then it connects to the carkit, but within a few seconds the connection is lost...

Me too. My connection to my Jabra car kit is stable once connected... but trying to get it connected in the first place is a total headache.
Never had this problem with my Desire, so why HTC should change the Bluetooth function in the HD is a mystery.

tbh i'm glad its not just me thats experiencing problems meaning it could be a software problem rather than something with my handset in particular.
I have been in touch with HTC about this, and I have just sent them the link to this thread so they can see i'm not the only one with this issue, so if anyone else has this issue it may be good to try and keep it all in here.

Mines also the audi in car system - do you find that you struggle to turn the bluetooth off and on again once it disconnects or that your phone becomes a little laggy until you turn the bluetooth off?
Yeah - I use the bluetooth widget on the home screen and once it disconnects, it will either take ages to turn off and on again, or it takes 2 presses to turn off.
I have just purchased a Plantronics 230 headset as need bluetooth for my job and it works perfectly - it's no where near the quality of the in car one though.
Also booked in my Audi as it's still under warranty - spoke to them on the phone and they said they will try and update the firmware but the Desire HD isn't on their supported phone list. Have seen a copy of this and not many phones are!!
I would of thought though, that as long as the phone does connect to the phone system in the car that it is compatible.
I have had 30mins once out of it before it disconnected and it was absolutely perfect in that time, including the phone book etc.
I do believe its something to do with the bluetooth on the phone as its a bit strange the way it struggles to turn on again once it fails.

That really hacks me off. I mean, BT is a standard. The only reason Audi can give for not supporting a phone that supports at least the same level of BT as them is that they (Audi) do not adhere to the BT standard.
Now, we all know in real life that cars and phones have problems/bugs/whatever BUT unless they can show that there is indeed a *bug* with the phone then the onus should be on Audi to support it.
Dave
Just for the record, it is not just Audi. With me it is together with the Bury carkit, where it first worked fine. (and also works with all other phones...)

I can confirm the issues with the BT. I have a parrot Mki9000 in my car and the first time when i tried to connect the DHD , the phone stopped to respond and I was forced to restart it. Since then the phone is paired with the car kit and works fine in a2dp mode for playing music, but when i try to make a call it simply not work. Yo better discribe the problem I will give an example:
The phone i properly connected and playing music, then it's ringing, but the ring sound is coming from the phone speaker not from the car. Then If i answer the call the sound comes from the phone (it shows that there is connection to the car kit). I've tried to press the speaker icon and there is a list with output devices (the phone, loudspeaker, and my car kit) I've tried to select the car kit several times , but there was no success. When I close the phone the music start to play from my car's BT system , so I think there is a problem with the handsfree function/protocol only a2dp works great , and I didn't have any issues with it. Also I've tried file transfer via BT, it works fine two.
Mitsubish Outlander carkit
I can confirm the same issue with the Mitsubish outlander carkit. It even happens that it drops the conversation. sometimes it's ok for half an hour, sometimes it disconnects after 1-2 minutes.
I also have a Jabra (bluetooth) headphone and noticed that if you pick up a call on the phone the sounds doesn't route to the headphone. If I pickup on the headphone it works fine.

I have a Pioneer head unit with BT in the car and that seems to work OK, not withstanding the fact that the HU has BT issues of its own (hardware fix needed - I'll get a new unit rather than fix it as I want one with A2DP) but once connected it works fine.
I have a Plantronics headset that seems to exhibit the same problems as your Jabra. At least if I use the phone to answer the call the sound comes through the phone. Also, if I have been using the headset the next call I make goes through the phone speaker which is a pain.
I'm wondering if HTC are routing the sound through the device that's actually *controlling* the call? So even if a headset is paired and connected to the phone, if you use the phone to make the call, as most people would, then it assumes that that's where the sound should get routed. If so, doh .....!!!!!
Just to add, if the sound does get routed to the phone you can use the 'choose speaker' option on the screen to route it to the headset but you shouldn't have to do this.
Anyone reported these issues to HTC and got a meaningful response?
Dave
I did send an email to HTC. Their wonderfull answer was about: "is your phone mentionned in the compatabilylist of the carkit, if not drop the problem there"...
I am still waiting for a response from HTC.
Mines got to a point now where I cant even make a call, it connects to the car, I go through phone book (on car) choose person to call, press call.. it tries for a couple of seconds then comes up disconnected, about 10 seconds later the phone disconnects from the car and will nto reconnect.
My phone then lags like mad until I turn bluetooth off which according to watch tower is taking up about 80% of the CPU.
any updates/solution to all these problems ?
I need it to work with MW600 before buying Desire HD
Last contact I had with HTC is they told me it had been escalted to the software team, so i'm guessing next time a software update comes out it could come about in that, but at the minute no still not fixed.

I've always thought that that's the way it is on all BT headset phones, it makes sense, if the incoming call was for my girlfriend, she can answer from the phone itself, and it automatically routes this through the phones speaker, and if it was answered from the headset, then it routes to the headset.. makes sense to me, I think it's quite good that it does that!
Do any of you have the process com.android.phone crashing when making a phone call through BT?
Ditto my mitsubishi outlander factory bt system. Seemed to work fine first time but then disconnected during first call and would not reconnect for days. Then after connecting not all functions would work ...no incoming call alert on car system, no dialling from car etc. I know the car system is fine as all functions work perfectly with my old nokia xpress music.

I trust that all of you bother to report this to HTC, at least once per instance ?
- otherwise I don't know when they'll fix this..
Bluetooth appears to be broken on my Galaxy Nexus I can discover other bluetooth devices fine, and they can discover the Nexus, and pairing appears to be successful from either direction. But as soon as I try to connect/transfer a file immediately I get a notification on the Nexus saying 'connection unsuccessful', 'transfer cancelled by user' (when I didn't cancel anything!) etc.
I've tried this with three different devices (my old HTC Desire, my wife's HTC Legend and my MacBook Pro) with the same results on all three.
Has anyone else run into similar problems, or does this sound like I've got a faulty unit and should send it back? Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot this any further? (I've not rooted the phone and its running the stock Android 4 ROM).
I wish I had an answer; just got my Galaxy Nexus yesterday; it won't pair with any of my bluetooth(s) -- they were all working fine in my Droid so I know how to pair. Any suggestions? Help!! Thanks
After further investigation, it seems it's just outgoing connections that don't work on mine. I can transfer files from other devices to the GN fine, just can't transfer from the GN to any other devices. Haven't tried connecting to a headset or anything like that as I don't have one.
I asked an acquaintance who also owns a GN to test it out on theirs and they experienced exactly the same thing - everything works ok except for outgoing connections/transfers.
I'm wondering if its a software bug if that's the case. If it were hardware related you'd have thought the whole bluetooth thing would be broken.
FWIW: I have been able to pair and connect via bluetooth with my car, with no problem. Downloaded my phonebook to my car via bluetooth as well.
Bt phonebook pairing
I'm having BT issues as well with my G-Nex on Verizon. Will connect/pair with my car, works for making/receiving phone call audio, but will not synch the contact list. Thus, cannot use voice dial in my car (Nissan).
Have searched all over the internet, no real answers. Tried to disable the existing bluetooth PBAPservice as suggested somewhere else - no dice, and it just restarts itself anyway. I've seen some suggestion about rooting the phone and replacing the PBAPservice which may be my next step. Hate to root a phone this new when I may end up returning it if I can't make this work ... sorta a deal breaker for me.
Anyone have any suggestions? Could my phone just be defective? Seems like there are a number of BT issues around, but I can't find anything "official" acknowledging the issue(s) ..
Thanks ...
I'm having a problem with my new GNex bluetooth as well. I'm using a Blackberry Stereo Gateway (an A2DP adapter) in my car and it -does- work, but only after I toggle bluetooth off and back on again. That's kinda annoying.
Previously I had been using an Incredible and it was working fine.
Having problems with Bluetooth as well. I have a BlueFusion unit installed in my car. Worked perfectly fine with my Droid X. Every time I got in the car, it just connected and calls and music both played over the stereo fine. Got my Galaxy Nexus paired and it worked great. However, whenever I get back in the car and the Galaxy Nexus reconnects, the audio does not work. It says it's connected, it plays with no audio coming out of the phone or the car speakers though. Tried re-pairing, no go. Tried bluetooth on/off, no go. The only way to get it to work, is to reboot the phone every time I get in the car.

I had this problem when I fist boot the Nexus and after the first boot of the update to 4.0.1. Reboot the phone, re-pairing the devices and everything is fine since then.

I can't even get my Nexus to pair with my car (Kufatec FISCON unit for Volkswagen). Just straight up error "unable to pair" when I try it. :/
And I have a problem as well. I did get it to pair with my PC but I can't send any files from my PC to Nexus (it works fine with Desire).
I have two Nexus (one is my wife's) and both car have Blackberry Bluetooth Gateways in them. In both cases I am seeing the same issue as the OP, the bluetooth will not connect automatically. However if I manually power on the bluetooth on the phone when the gateway is in connecting mode than they will connect. I never had a problem like this with previous phones.
Is there a official way to inform Samsung of this issue?
I'm also having problems with bluetooth on my Galaxy Nexus. I wanted to transfer files via bluetooth from my old Incredible 2 to my new Galaxy Nexus and it just wouldn't work.
Edit: A reboot appears to have fixed the problem.

I have this same issue exactly - and had this issue after a System Update on my Droid Incredible for a few weeks before I ended up buying the Galaxy Nexus. I had hoped the new phone wouldn't have this issue. Anyways, it also seems to happen when I take a phone call.
Scenario: I'm listening to music over bluetooth to my bluetooth audio enabled headunit in my car. I receive a phone call, and toggle the bluetooth off so I can take the call privately over my phone's earpiece. When the call is finished, I toggle the bluetooth back on and the phone will connect - however the music is playing, but no audio comes through the phone nor the speakers of my car.
I started having this -exact- scenario issue when System Updates started rolling out for Droid Incredible, and they added the options for "Phone Audio" and "Media Audio" under the bluetooth options. Before these System Updates, my Droid Incredible had worked perfectly with bluetooth audio in my car.

I am having similar problems with both my car's BT phone and BT audio.The phone through my car gets terrible static until I stop and start Bluetooth again, which is dangerous on the highway.
I hope it can be fixed with a little software update.
I have the same problem with new nexus galaxy, pairs well with car bluetooth audio, can hear a confirmation beep on car speakers but no luck in the phone. It just stays on paired but not connected. It doesnt allow to remove pairing and redo it untill rebooting the device.
I'm also having issues with the bluetooth audio in my car. I pair okay with my Sony Xplod head unit, then when I turn off the car and reconnect, the GN starts playing music through the internal speaker instead of the car speakers.
I'm having the previously mentioned A2DP issue as well. Everything connects fine but occasionally, no audio is heard via the deck in my car. Phone calls via bluetooth work, just no A2DP audio.
For those having this same problem, you can fix issue by toggling airplane mode on and off. This is quicker than rebooting (which also fixes the issue).
This has to be a bug. I'm running 4.01. Anyone having the same issue with 4.02/4.03?

Yes. I just got mine last night...ran some errands today. Paired fine in my car, can make and receive calls through the car's audio system, but no sound. I'm running 4.02. Tried this with my BT headphones and the same thing happens.
The airplane mode trick works, however. Thanks!
Hopefully this will get fixed rather quickly!
-when listen music either on HTC music widget or PowerAmp
- got Gap and silent when using Bluetooth headset
- works fine if direct connect to the ONE X
any idea and fix ???
I've yet to see if this works for bluetooth but had a look at the ROMeOS rom and saw this in the build.prop as monx seams to have fixed the stutter: lpa.decode=true
I've set this in my build.prop and will try through the car bluetooth tomorrow.
To edit build.prop in the system folder you will need root access
thanks , buddy , let me know the result.
Unfortunately made no difference for me, will keep digging though as this is annoying when I have a 40 min commute to work each morning and again back.
Anyone have any idea's?
Edit: this doesn't just happen on the beats setting, turning it off makes no difference.
Anyone have any ideas on any fixes yet?

Have the same stutter issue even after 1.28 update connected with my bluetooth MW600.
Seems the problem is device switching to power conserve core. When i play music in background while running GPS in foreground, iam not getting the stutter.

I was also planning on buying that Sony thing, but then I found my Nokia BH 214 back. It is now charging and when I'm back home I will test it. If it also stutters, I'm not going to buy a new headset, because it's likely to have the same problems, although that Sony is Bluetooth 3.0, which could make a difference.
I'll let you know the results with the Nokia.
I have stutter problem with sennheiser Bluetooth headphones. Am on stock 1.28, and disabling beats doesn't help (although did help on older version)

I'm running 1.28 & have the same issue with my car kit which is a works supplied Nokia car kit that allows A2DP connections. I'm definitely going to try running the GPS at the same time on my way home from work to see it that fixes it as suggested. I have a usb charger that I plug in so won't be using any extra juice. I'll post back my results.

Sorry for the very late reply, I completely forgot it. Just yet I tested the Nokia BH 214. First my One X couldn't find it, tried for almost 10 minutes. Then I disabled WiFi, just to try, and yes the headset was found. Then I put WiFi back on, but it refused to communicate. Wifi off again, communicating worked. So to say pairing was easy: far from that.
Now the next phase: listening to music. Completely unusable. Very very bad. There's something wrong with output, vocals are washed away and sound like the singer is 100 miles away. While quality isn't an issue with the MW600. But also the gaps. What is also very strange is when the phone is on my desk in line of sight with my headset, the are only a few gaps. But as soon as I put the phone in my pocket, the gaps increase exponentially.
So I think in my case the only thing left is to send the phone back. There must be something wrong with it, my WiFi reception is also very bad. Bluetooth also sucks, so since WiFi and Bluetooth are handled by the same chip, there must be something wrong with it. I really like the phone and sending it back means it's away for 2/3/? weeks, but first I hoped it was something with the software but that hope is fading away.
--------edit: just pissed of by all this. Called HTC and I'm sending it back for repair. Nice phone, but basics like WiFi and Bluetooth must work and they don't. They said it will be back in 7-10 working days. Hope they can keep that promise. --------
Have the same problem with my Jabra Freeway, really annoying to get thos silent gaps when listening to podcasts and music in the car. Tried to run navigation on my way to work today to see if that made any difference but it didn't :-(

Thanks for info.
Seems the problem is more related to Bluetooth version & buffering.
I'm planning to buy Sony wireless headset pro with bt v3.
I'll update once I get it hopefully by end of June...

I just tried using my Moto S10-HD after reading this, and thought I would tell you my experience. I have alot of music on my phone, and I just hooked up my BT with Wifi on and no issues, so I started to play music and so far 3 songs and no gaps stutter or anything like that. One thing that does happen which prior phones didnt happen is that when the screen goes to stand by after not touching it, there is a .5 second interruption in the song, but thats it I am currently on my forth song and the phone is in "standby" mode and it plays perfectly.
I have the WWE version of the phone using 1.29.401.11 ROM BL unlocked, rooted, and custom stock rom.
Not sure that it helps you but to share my experience; I have occasional stuttering on bluetooth using my Sennheisers if the phone is in my pocket. I found that I can replicate the stuttering if I completely cover the top of the phone with a hand on either side and cupped together at the top - in fact I can cut off bluetooth playback altogether.
This isn't a normal way of holding the phone obviously - but it does count if the phone is in your pocket, there is already some 'resistance/interference' from the surroundings. Other than that, I have great wifi reception, best of any phone I have had.
Could this be a hardware fault? Maybe they just need to boost the bluetooth signal / improve buffering?
I only got my HOX this week, aside from this issue it is great, no other issues - touch wood
Mine seemed to studder when it was in my pocket while I walked my dog. I sent it in for other issues and we'll see if the new one has similar issues.
Same problem here ! Kinda disapointed !
Same problem SonyEricsson HBH-IS800
I also have a lot of stuttering. It appears to be a very weak signal because it works better (though still not flawless) when I have the phone close to the headset.
Putting the phone in my pocket is already far enough for playback to completely stop working.
None of you guys have any issues with streaming audio music/pandora/google music on your phone to the car? My problem is getting worst and I cant stand it any longer. The music would skip constantly every few seconds making it unbearable. I checked google and few people has problems with it on androidcentral, im surprised no thread for it on here?
No issues here since device came out. Have a uconnect setup in my car and stream everything from my phones BT to the vehicle's BT. My old device did that often, had an older version of BT though I think? I've yet to have issues, sure maybe 1-2 times every week a song might skip a beat but not at all on the regular. If it's a regular occuranxe it could be a bad connection. I would then delete the profile and link from scratch the vehicle and phone's BT.
Also while listening and if it gets bad. Stop the BT connection, then reconnect. Sometimes a reconnection is better than your previous and skips go away. I just turn BT off on my device, wait a few minutes, then turn it back on and let the 2 connect. Try this and the above, those 2 methods should work if not one or the other.

I get static issues if someone calls me while I am listening to bluetooth audio, and then switch back to music. Usually switching to the radio and then back to bluetooth audio resolves this. Try making sure your settings in pairing options are set to allow data transfer between the device and your car. I initially could not even connect my device until I checked off that option.
I used to have the issue with HTC One M7 and Galaxy S4 in my Renault Medianav, but no such issues with the One M8,.
I can semi- validate this issue. I have three Bluetooth devices. My headset for phone calls will get some static if my M8 is also connected to my HTC Stereoclip, but goes away as soon as I'm out of range of the Stereoclip. Because of this, and the fact my Stereoclip runs on battery and often fails to disconnect after I leave car mode, I tried switching out my Stereoclip for the RocketFish Bluetooth Music Receiver.
Now, I don't get the static, but when streaming music through the RocketFish, it skips every 20-40 seconds. I've swapped out the RocketFish twice and have had the same issue each time.
Based on queries on the Android Revolution HD thread, the developers are saying it's a base issue and needs to be fixed by HTC.
I just find it odd that the Stereoclip will steam media without skipping, but third party hardware like the RocketFish does skip. Also, my headset doesn't get the aforementioned static issues with the RocketFish.
Also worth noting I have not had both the Stereoclip and RocketFish paired to my phone at the same time.

Just wanted to second this. Mine isn't that bad, but every so often (3-5 minutes) the music skips about 0.5 seconds. Have tried stopping my navigation app, putting the phone to sleep, and unplugging the charger. Nothing works so far.
Pretty sure it is not a pairing issue since this started the first time I paired my phone to the car stereo.
Needless to say, not happening when listening with headphones or speakers.
Any insight or updates would be very helpful. Thanks.
Have a cheap'ish Chinese double din headunit (Xtrons).
M8 connects fine to phone and music with no issues with calls or music

I have the same problem using a Sony Bluetooth Speaker BTX300.
It's really annoying. It happens with Deezer, Spotify or internal mp3. It does not happen on voice calls.
Maybe it's something related to the Bluetooth bitrate not handled correctly by device ?
Only happens to me in stock radio over bluetooth with the mylink system in the new chevys. No problem with my Kenwood head unit in my Cherokee though

On stock Bell ROM, pre camera/EPSM update, happened every minute in my 2011 Subaru WRX as well as my Motorola Buds. I flashed InsertCoin 2.4.0 and ElementX 0.10 today... no more skipping. Not sure which it was.
I'd had this issue before on my m7 with Pandora. Are you guys using adaway? If so, disable it and try again, it should go away

Hi guys,
Resurrecting this thread. I am having skipping/stuttering issues with my phone when streaming using Spotify over bluetooth A2DP.
I've tested this on 3 different bluetooth devices (Volvo, Belkin and another bluetooth speaker).
The problem is very annoying, once the screen goes off, music would slightly pause every 20-30 seconds.
This happens when using Spotify and TuneIn Radio.. so I'm pretty sure it's not an application problem.
Anyone else having the same problem? I'm running 4.4.3 - 2.07.980.2..
Also, I'm pretty sure this only started happening after the latest update from HTC.

[UPDATE] I've tried doing some tests with turning wifi - OFF and I did not experience any sound/music skips during this morning commute. I will see how this goes in the next few days.

I'm using an app that starts playing music as soon as I connect to my cars Bluetooth. Luckily this app also provides "wifi off on connect"
Gonna give this a try. Really hope this fixes the audio drops. Hate it.

So from one day with Wifi off I can definitely tell it doesn't drop audio on Bluetooth streaming anymore.
So turn your Wifi off to fix the m8 ?

Glad it works for you as well, this has fixed the problem for me most of the time. I use the Trigger app to turn off wifi when bluetooth connects.
On another issue which I don't think is related to the above, on my Volvo at random times, I still have severe stuttering issues to the point that you almost can't tell what music is playing. I've been having this since day 1 with the M8 and not from recent fw upgrade as above. I'm not sure whether this is Spotify or the bluetooth stack tho.
Nevertheless, any of the blueooth issues were something I never experienced with Samsung Galaxy S3, Xperia Z or any other phones. HTC!!, are you listening!?!
rBlink
I have the same problems connecting to my Arcam rBlink at home with my M8. Music dropouts every 20-30 secs. Streaming from my sons M7 is flawlessly.
Stopping Wifi makes it slightly better but is no option since I want to use spotify over wifi.
Could it be a problem with a low bit rate for bluetooth audio?
Arcam gives the advice to increase it for OS X as high as 58.
I am also getting this issue as of late....
I'm using an unrooted Sprint M8 HK phone.
My problem is audio drop out (0.5 sec) constantly. Doesn't make a difference over BlueTooth or the speakers.
It appears that it is related to the phone accessing something during playback which causes the dropout.
It does it when streaming over wif or data... it even does it with audio that I have downloaded to my SD card...
I have uninstalled everything back to when I thought the issues started with no luck.
Anyone with any ideas? I see where some have had this issue and even a hard reset (wipe) didn't solve it.
This doesn't occur on my Verizon M8 which has almost the identical app's installed.
Lego
I have an international version M8, bluetooth skips randomly when streaming on car bluetooth and to my sony srs X9 speaker. It seems to happen only with continuos feeds. Mi cousin told me the problem could be that bt device is searching at all times for other devices but since there is no option to stop search i can't be sure.

I am also having problems I have a Scala headset on my crash helmet it doesn't matter if WiFi is on or not when streaming music, It seems to be better with the play music app the car app is annoying because it comes part of htc and I don't know how to disable it without rooting the phone. Has anyone come up with a solution yet? It sounds like an old LP playing with the stylus jumping like a good en.
I cannot fully connect Bluetooth so the phone part works with my 2016 Mazda cx9. I can only get the audio. All boxes are checked on the Bluetooth side but the screen on the car says cannot connect with phone. Any other settings I could try or maybe missing?

Getting same thing on my Lexus Gs and my fiat 500
I'm also having a Bluetooth issue with my car, though it's a bit different. It pairs no problem and it will play music through the car speakers but then it randomly starts playing through the phone speakers. I go into Bluetooth on the phone and it says it's still connected to the car but it plays through the phone. It's happened 3 times now. Two times turning Bluetooth off and on again fixed it, the other time I couldn't get it to play through he car speakers again.
The sound has also been very choppy through one of my Bluetooth speakers. I'm hoping this is software related, not something wrong with the hardware.
I have an issue w/ BT in my car as well, but in my case the phone connects but doesn't STAY connected. It pairs just fine to the car (Cadillac SRX), but drops within seconds. When I first paired it, the connection dropped before I could even add the smart lock device. I repeated multiple times, and even turning BT off/on it literally disconnects within 5 seconds. So I can't even make calls in the car. But it connects and stays connected just fine to my Soundfreak BT speaker in the house..
No BT issues to report here. Phone and audio work perfectly in my 2016 Infiniti Q60.
Same here. 2013 Genesis Coupe BT wokring great no issues....
mine says in correct pin, lol but both Pins are the same on the car and phone, idk
Anyone have updates on this or has onePlus acknowledged it? It looks like they have tons of a2dp problems on their forums with the oneplus X and have yet to resolve them, just leaving the people with a phone that doesn't work with tons of different systems, which work with about 99% of other phones.
To update my situation, in my 2014 Lexus it will not display any song information or play music properly.
In my 2016 fiat, it makes the car completely useless as it sends the fiats head unit into a boot loop upon connecting.

I'm now having an exciting new problem. If I'm listening to music over Bluetooth and I stop somewhere, to get coffee this morning for example, when I get back in the car it'll start playing back on the car speakers but extremely quietly. I have to turn the car volume up to max to barely hear it. I have to toggle Bluetooth like 5 times or more to get it working again.

Seems to be a default bug with Oneplus phones and yet my cheap Cubot at a 1/6 of the price of the OP3 connects fine to my car.

Same sort of problem here with Renault MediaNav. Different is It connects onley to disconnect a few seconds later.
Really driving me mad.

Got problems with my Kenwood car stereo as well. Sometimes, if I'm trying to connect, it just says that the PIN is incorrect (even though I don't enter one). And if I'm lucky enough and it opens the prompt to enter the PIN, it won't do anything after I enter it.
Had a similar problem on my HTC m7 or Nexus 4 (can't remember) with a faulty custom ROM. Changed to another one and it worked again.
But I don't wanna leave stock on my Opo3 yet :S
I have the Renault Kadjar and using the stock rom i can only use the music side of the bluetooth. I spoke with Oneplus and they tried to help but they did not know what is wrong. I ended up rooting the phone and using a Custom Rom, at the moment i am using resurrection rom and i have no problems with the bluetooth.
Just tried it with my other car which has a pioneer radio. No problems with that one.
Still a no go on with the MediaNav
