I use mine everyday to stream music via bluetooth. Are you sure the media option under the bluetooth connection is enabled? What are you connecting to?
Similar issue
I too own a Verizon LG G3 that I purchased recently. I also have a pair of LG Tone Ultras that I am having trouble with. I mainly use them for music and the occasional call. I've found that when I turned off phone audio under Settings > Bluetooth, I'm able to listen to music, which is nice, but the control buttons on the Bluetooth headset don't work, which is a mediocre workaround. Since I've tried a hard reset with no luck, I'll be contacting lg because at the very least, their own peripheral should work with their phone.

Bump same issue here
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk
Didn't have any issues until a couple days ago, then the phone stopped playing music through bluetooth. Phone is set to allow media through blutooth for my car connection, my cat says the phone is connected as a phone and as an audio device. I dunno what went wrong. Occasionally I am able to get it to work again by resetting, but it stops working again after a while.
I've noticed this same behavior.
I found that if I go into the Bluetooth settings I can uncheck the "media" option for the device, then check it again, and it will work until the next time I connect. Not a graceful solution by any means, but it keeps me listening until something more useful comes up.

Simple Solution for Me, LG G3 Audio Streaming
Well I had this problem. I could make calls and they worked fine, voice and sound.
I could not get streaming media to play but I could see that the songs were registering on my car display.
I tried everything, the settings on the phone, re-pairing. etc. Nothing worked.
I just found out that it was a more simple problem. Somehow the bluetooth volume got turned down and all I did was turn it up while testing the problem on another car stereo. Maybe it'll work for you, just turn up the volume while attempting to stream music to your stereo on your LG G3. There are various volume settings on the phone for different things. I have no idea how the volume could have been turned down, that low. It takes holding it a few seconds of holding for the volume to go back up. I have not adjusted the volume on the phone in some time....so maybe it is bug, dunno. Maybe its just an easy accidental thing, turning down the volume. I never adjust the volume on the phone with the back buttons, too hard to get to. That is how I turned up the volume in this case, back button on the LG G3
This is not the solution I read about where you can call someone, turn up the volume then the media stream works. I guess these could be related but not what I did.
Same problem (not fixed)
I've got the same problem with my lg g3 and mpow Thor headphones, I need quick help please
It must be the phone cause it has the same problems with a JBL charge 3
yeah, same issue here. Bluetooth connects for call audio only. Running Marshmello 6.0.1

Everything works fine here, so it's not a general phone issue.
Does it properly recognise the bluetooth device as headphones/speakers?
Also I see a lot of you talk about car bluetooth. There are a lot of cars that don't actually support streaming media over Bluetooth (just voice calls since they are much lower quality).
There was a thread on the main XDA page a few says ago.
Hi Engmia,
When I initially get into the vehicle the car does recognize the device with headphones/mic symbol however if I go into my bluetooth settings and look at the profiles that are connected, only the "Call audio" profile is available. If I unpair the device and restart my phone, then re-pair the device it will eventually connect and using "call audio" and "media audio" profiles. I believe this is a Marshmellow issue as it's happening in both of my cars.
Thanks,
Aakash

Hello,
If you car actually has A2DP (the Bluetooth media standard for streaming media over bluetooth) which is supported by having the option enabled when reconnecting then it's a bug either in the car protocols or the phone software.
I can't help further unfortunately but recommend you to use the current workaround you've found and submit a proper bug report.
I think the rebooting of phone is an unnecessary step, try just unpairing the device or even better, just resetting the connection to see if it will work and save some time.
You can also try updating to 7.1.1, to see if the issue is resolved there.
Personally I've never experienced issues on neither 5.0, 6.0 or 7.0 with my bluetooth headphones. In dact I was always pleasently surprises by how well the pairing worked.
Thanks for the reply engmia. I know both vehicles support A2DP, and I do not have issues with a different device. Are the 7.1.1 roms all AOSP? Would they be okay to use as a daily driver?
Thanks!

Yeah, you are looking for a custom AOSP rom for 7.0 since LG isn't planning to release the update.
It's absolutely lovely for a daily driver, works great and is quite good stability wise. Sometimes a new weekly (LineageOS) will have an unexpected bug, but that's why you just keep the previous version or a backup to keep everything running smoothly.
Going back to stock would be a pain for me at this point, both function and performance wise. I don't think you'll be missing anything from the stock rom, and most importantly, double tap to wake works.
problem seems to be syncing to multiple devices
Ran into this problem this morning.. I have an LG HBS900 headset paired to my LG G3 and my PC.. It looks like the PC's bluetooth set it up as a media device and the phone would only connect it for voice calls, no options for media showed up in the bluetooth settings on the phone..
To fix the problem:
I paired the headset to my PC and and then unpaired it and shut off bluetooth on my PC.
I also unpaired the headset from my phone, cleared the caches and rebooted.
After reboot I paired the headset to the phone and media options were available again..
Hope this helps
Just had this happen to me now ... Couple of restarts, syncing my headphones to a computer and back to my phone fixed it for some reason.
Same issue with the LG V20 Smartphone
SmartPhone: LG V20
Service Provider: AT&T
Android 7.0 (not rooted)
Kernel 3.18.31
Bluetooth Headset model: LG HBS730
Pairing is not a problem. It pairs quickly and connects both phone and media controls, however the media controls do not work. The buttons themselves are connected and working because when I press and hold any of the media buttons, I'll hear a quick double-beep. The buttons that do not work are the "play/pause" toggle, the "play next" and "play previous" buttons. The buttons that do work are the "volume up/down", the "answer/hangup" buttons.
I've tried some of the previously mentioned suggestions, like disable then re-enable controls and pretty much have done that will all the media controls in settings and within the applications.
The LG HBS730 worked perfectly for over a year with my previous phone, the Samsung G5 Active and works perfectly with my 2 Android tablets. The headset works fine.
The LG V20 bluetooth media controls also fail in the identical ways when the phone is connected to my Toyota Highlander's Bluetooth. The phone answers and hangs up properly, but the music will not pause or play until I hit the button on the phone. The controls do not function from the Highlanders audio controls on my console. This is also true with my Honda Link Bluetooth. Same exact symptoms. I have to use the phone to control the audio.
I have logging enabled on my phone if anyone knows how to get the logs off this LG, I would be happy to donate them to the cause of getting this fixed.

Sorry logs don't help me since I'm not a developer. I don't experience any issues on my d855 running LineageOS 7.1.1 and AKG Y45BT headset.
Pairing, controls, music playback all work perfectly fine.
I suggest you try contacting LG if the headset's controls are working on other devices.
Having an issue where I can't get the microphone on any of my Bluetooth devices to work with OK Google.
I have a motorcycle Bluetooth (china brand) and also a set of Jabra headphones. Both work done playing music and using them on phone calls but for the life of me when I activate OK Google it defaults to the internal microphone only and won't use the Bluetooth microphone.
I've tried changing all the settings under voice in the ok Google settings and also the settings to do with Bluetooth headset and hands-free bit still can't get it to work.
Is it just me, is it my settings or has OK Google stopped working via Bluetooth (I've read others have no issue)
Running 8.0 but have also tried it on a 7.2.1 S8
Any help or ideas?
Hi!
I just have to ask, did you ever get this working, and if so, how?!
I'm having the exact same problem as you, with a Galaxy S6 on 7.0 and a BT-S2 chinese helmet intercom.
I'm going crazy and really considering going back to iphone just because of this.
Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply. Did not get any notification about the reply.
Did not get it working. Turns out it needs to be included in the headset as a standard feature (which the china headset did not have) Now use Sena headsets and they work great.
Hi. Wondering if anybody could help. When I connect my oneplus 5T to my car I have problems. When it starts to call it disconnects the bluetooth from the car completely. However the call continues on the phone which is a complete pain as you cant use it through the hands free. Car is a BMW 630CI with pro nav if that helps.
Many Thanks
i first had problems to connect to my audi A3 bluetooth ... it simply didn´t find it
after trying again and changing the bluetooth audio codec it suddenly worked ...
Idk if it will work for you, but you can try changing the codec and se if it helps
Hi. Ive tried all 3. It connects fine and I can see my contacts but as soon as I hit dial it disconnects from the car.
Very strange.
Thanks for the suggestion tho
with mine in my car it every now and then gives me this a crackling sound.. Kind of irritating, I'm hoping a software update down the road fixes this.. I've tried all 3 codecs
Having issues with Bluetooth connection on my Prius Prime as well. It always disconnects, I had to disable Bluetooth on the phone and re-able it for it to work.
I experience the same with my Boss QC35. First connection, audio breaks with lots of noise and had to disable it and re-enable it.
Still found no solution. Hope the next update sorts it out as the bluetooth seems a mess.
So after looking around, there are issues with certain codecs and devices connecting being posted in the OP community forums. My Sony WH1000xm2 headphones stutter when using AptX HD. My JBL Everest 750NC's - if you turn the volume up too high, they disconnect from the phone. In my Cadillac ATS, whenever you place a call it'll stay connected, but you won't hear anything, and the other user can't hear you either.
I think they've acknowledged the issues and are working on them, but after putting Oreo on my Moto G5 Plus and Oreo's ability to change between all codec's on the fly (including native LDAC support!) I'm anxiously awaiting Oreo to be 'officially' released.
I'd say just be patient.. I'm sticking with this phone because I think it'll be worth it in the end. Wish I had better news!
so I resolved my Bluetooth issues by flashing FreedomOS. Now there is no intermittent crackling sound now and there is no issues at all ymmv, this was just my experience.
Thanks. Will wait for Oreo and then try different roms if it continues.
on FreedomOS before, it was giving me headache re-connecting to my Subaru car bluetooth, like after you shutoff engine, go somewhere and come back, unless you manually force connecting to the car, it barely auto reconnect back.
And also takes so long to get data sync from my Fitbit chargeHR to the app.
I don't think this kind of bluetooth issue related to what rom we have but the kernel and more specifically BT firmware.
-----edit-------
My friend also got BT issue when he tried to connect to BT headset. Hope Oneplus get something fixed on new oreo or updates
Just an update. Since upgrading to the official Oreo rom my problems have disappeared and my phone now works fine with the car Bluetooth.
Chris
I still have problems. Pause and unpause, and the track restarts. After ending a phone call the track restarts. 2018 RAM, Uconnect
With stock ROM 4.7.2 bluetooth connected only for a few seconds with my Audi A6. With every following stock ROM version it didn't even connect.
I tried every single Audio-Codec and the different settings in developer options - nothing helped. Once I cleared data & cache from the bluetooth system apps followed with a soft brick
Hi all,
Had same issues with my Hyundai ix35 and oneplus 5t (Nougat), tracks skipping, distorted audio in calls, etc... Tried emptying bluetooth cache, switching audio codecs without success. Now I just received the OTA update to Oreo (8.0), Oxygen rom 5.0.3 and it solved the issues!!! Yeay, no more auxilary cable hanging around !

I am having the same issue in my car. It no longer displays track information and the connection is not very stable. I will try switching the codec and report back.
i don.t have any volume control from the phone basically when i connect it to my car stereo
i can control the volume for the first 4-5 clicks ... and then the slider moves but there is no difference in the volume
i have to turn the volume from the stereo almost to the max
whit my old samsung tablet works great ... i have maybe 50% more volume then with my phone
tried all codecs ...
Hi all...need some help with Bluetooth issues on my pixel 2 XL. I updated to the official Android pie today and noticed that my jbl Bluetooth earphones are having issues with calls. I cannot hear anything thing from the other side and the person on the other side can only hear some weird distortion. However I tried playing music on it and it works fine. Issue is only with calls. Anyone else facing this? I tried unpairing and pairing it again, restarted the phone, tried safe mode too but no luck.
Also I had sound echo issues with wired earphones (connected through dongle) on Oreo so I bought the jbl Bluetooth earphones and the echo was gone...and now after updating to Android pie my Bluetooth earphones don't work
Please help!

I have no issues wtih LG HBS730 BT headphones on calls or music with Pie. I've had four calls total, incoming and outgoing. I listened to music for about five hours too, no glitches.
I've had issues with the anker brand ones.
I have the same issue
Having issues connectingy to my car Bluetooth which has always worked before updating. Also experiencing WiFi drops.
Edit: went to stock Pie unrooted, and not as many wifi disconnects but my phone doesn't even see my car's Bluetooth connection . Fitbit connects just fine though. Weird..
Android Bluetooth is flakey as hell. Everyone gets a turn with incompatibility. P fixed my car with the first Dev preview. On O it was crud. There is a massive ongoing thread about it.
https://support.google.com/pixelphone/forum/AAAAb4-OgUsiJeDphsoOJ4/?hl=by
I had the same issue on my pixel XL on dp4 and dp5. Bluetooth worked fine for music but only crackled a little bit for phone calls. Both headsets and car were affected. Troubleshot it with Google rep and they told me my phone was broken. I also had multiple sensors stop working so auto brightness was broken and auto rotate was also broken (And a few other features like tap to wake screen). I ended up buying a pixel 2 xl and sending the other to Google as a trade in yesterday. Now I'm wondering if it wasn't just the software. I actually reset the phone and everything worked for a day or so before it failed again. I then exited the beta and everything worked on 8.1 Oreo for about a day before it all broke again. At that point I concluded it must be the phone. Hopefully the software didn't burn something up. I'm going to be ticked if this phone starts giving me trouble.
Are there any troubleshooting steps I can follow to see if solves the issue? Because it only happens on calls but music seems to be fine.
You can try rebooting in safe mode (long press the power off icon when you press the power button). I will restart with only minimal apps to see if it's being caused by a non Google app.

I tried this on my device but even in safe mode i faced the same issue
Ever since upgrading to PIE, I can no longer connect my my pioneer appradio head unit.
Phone works, but media Spotify or Pandora does not
Having the same issue, also, my "disable absolute volume" in developer settings doesn't work. I guess this is what to expect for early adopters.
I have had no issues with connectivity to my bluetooth headphones or to my car's bluetooth
However I have noticed that twice when I had phone call before entering the car and I connect to the car's bluetooth and the call is transferred to the car's audio, I get disconnected for a couple of seconds (after initially connecting correctly) and then it automatically reconnects and call continues normally ..
Android pie broke bluetooth for calls

Stock Pixel XL: All bluetooth devices worked for all purposes on Oreo. After updating to Pie none of my bluetooth headsets will connect for phone calls. Bluetooth music broadcasting to speakers is unaffected. I'm going to call them about it tomorrow.

Are you having any other issues. My original pixel XL had the same issue show up on the beta but it also affected some of my other sensors as noted in previous post. I now have a pixel 2 xl with no issues whatsoever.

Well, they seem to think that the problem is an app from the play store that doesn't play nice with Pie. Frustratingly, the problem corrects itself sometimes (but not all the time) after a reboot. They had me reboot into safe mode and this time it worked. After 20 minutes our support call was over. 30 minutes later one of my three headsets (with the oldest bluetooth version) didn't work, but two of the three did.
The tech (Jen, who was super nice but sounded like she was overseas and had to repeat herself a few times for clarity) said they only have 2 support options for this issue: 1) boot into safe mode and blame one of the apps from the play store or 2) FACTORY RESET THE PHONE! Once I explained that the phone was my google authenticator she suggested that to further troubleshoot I should turn off two factor for my google account (Ummm, no thanks. And that is why you should always PRINT OUT the QR code and put it in a fire-proof box in case you need to recover it)
I'll post back if it breaks again, but right now at least I can live with it.
Only "issue" for me is my wife's ILX doesn't seem to update the music information anymore. With the betas it did for a fee songs then seemed to stop. Now it's nothing at all but will double check today since I only drive it on occasion. Other than that, playback on our cars, Bluetooth speakers and headphones has been just fine. Love that it remembers the volume set per each device. No super low or super loud volumes on the start of playback.

I also have Bluetooth issues with Pie when connecting to my car (2017 Audi A4 with MMI+) I never use Android Auto by the way:
- Music playback is flaky: I have to start Play Music before connecting to the car, otherwise it cannot stream anything. Sometimes even this doesn't work and I have to repair again. This sucks, you always have to spend some time to check if everything works!
- My Radar trap warning app blitzer.de only works when streaming Audio from the phone to the car, even though I set Audio to HFP. With Oreo, the app started a phone call, it looked exactly like an incoming call. Now it only adds the warning to the phone's Audio Stream, so when listening to radio or streaming from a HDD I get no warnings.
- Phone calls work flawlessly, though
Try removing or 'forgetting' paired device and add it back again. It worked with my AirPods.
Anyone having issues with audio not routing to Bluetooth earbuds? Only fix for me so far is to reboot the phone. But the issues comes back later or the next day.
It's strange too, I'll have issue with the galaxy buds pro not working for audio or phone calls but I switch to the Sony XM4 and it works for audio but not for calls. Reboot and both works again. I've tried unpairing and resetting Bluetooth and also the earbuds but nothing works except reboot of phone.
Network reset and try clearing the system cache.
Try swiping down once then hit media output and selecting the Bluetooth device there
not sure if these will help as well but these were the solutions i have done when i had bt issues. these are not in order by the way, but alternative solutions
1) clear the bt cache. unpair then pair again
2) i installed bluetooth audio widget
3) i once bought a jam loud buds from jb hi fi. it would drop out or it wouldn't connect at all to my fold. turns out it was still paired to my old samsung note 9. had to delete that pairing and it finally worked with the fold. didn't know some devices only paired with a phone once
4) bt version. i had an old bt remote used by my daughter. it paired with the fold but did not work. did some reading and the bt version of the remote could be the cause

Buds+ software and firmware* have given me a lot of trouble. A real pain. I'm running two N10+ N975U/N975U1's one on Pie the latter on 10.
These are the apps I load but they may not work on 11 or higher, don't know... In any case uninstalling then reinstalling may fix your issue if the network reset fails too. Firewall block "Apps (UID)10343" and Wearables Installation Manager. Keep them blocked or they will update... and you'll be repeating the process.
For all these apps they must have all their permissions enabled to open!!!
*if you have a pair of Buds+ do not upgrade their firmware! It trashed the sound in my one pair. Now they need reflashed...

done this, and the correct device was selected but no audio. Sometimes music audio works fine but not calls
Idk if this happens for you guys but I went to a sony showroom today and when I paired my mobiles with some soundbar units like sony HT-S40R, HT-G700 and HT-S500F and some other models soundbar all of them got this weird issue, we can hear the music but every 2 or 3 sec it feels like it stops and then resume ( on the music player app it's working normally) I though maybe because of my spotify app I tried Youtube, youtube music amd amp all of them gives the same weird results ... This was before rooting my phone ... Ofc after rooting it it's stil the same issue (Android 12 and 13) hopefully this happened with those specefics models and not with my earphones or headphones bluetooth
Also note my S21 ultra works perfectly with the models said above
