Is bluetooth problem fixed? - Realme 6 Pro Questions & Answers

I'm thinking of buying this phone, but have been put off by the TechSpurt review which uncovered a serious problem with bluetooth. Basically all audio apps stopped working whenever a bluetooth device was connected, requiring a phone reboot. His review is here:

Can anyone confirm whether this problem has now been fixed?

[Q] Bluetooth not working on Galaxy Nexus

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.

Does A2DP work properly? And what sort of bluetooth device are you pairing with?
Same here, sending files works, receiving doesn't. Pairing with my bt headset also works fine....

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!

[Q] Bluetooth Issue when connecting with OEM Car stero

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

[Q] Bluetooth disconnects after kitkat update

I don't see this particular problem reported here, so: We have a Sprint GS3 with a Plantronics Pro HD headset. All worked fine until after the [email protected]# kitkat update. Now, after a call is done, the phone disconnects from the headset, so we miss calls! I tried the "Bluetooth Autoconnect" app and that doesn't seem to do it.
I note that somehow it's "call audio" that disconnects -- media audio stays connected.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Does your headset sync with the phone's phonebook? If so, take a look at this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769667
for a possible workaround. I have a bluetooth disconnect issue with NC8, but it is not identical to yours.

that doesn't seem to be it, though I appreciate the idea. Anyway, fiddling with the bluetooth autoconnect app settings does seem to work around the problem. I truly loathe Samsung software (i.e. including firmware).

Bluetooth connection issue

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.

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

Bluetooth Car Sync Issue

Is anyone else having issues syncing to your car? Mine connects for 5 seconds and then flashes phone not detected on my phone screen and disconnects. I am running the deluxe standard model, not the special edition. I have checked the easy stuff like making sure Bluetooth is enabled and successful pairing. I can connect to Bluetooth speakers no problem. My Google music app also froze and could not be recovered by powering off or closing apps. I had to uninstall and reinstall. Let me know if anyone has had a similar issue and hire or if you fixed it.
I listen to music in my car via A2DP/BT Audio & have no issues with either listening, or controlling (fwd, rewind, etc...) music apps like VLC via the car controls.
no problem pairing with my car, mobile, music etc etc.

2 ppl confirmed properly working BT;
1: make sure you're on the latest firmware
2: close any other apps which might be using BT (do you have other BT devices on you? They might be conflicting)
3: make sure your music app is whitelisted in battery optimization options
4: try other music apps, like VLC
5: choose balanced power management
6: factory reset & try BT audio as the 1st thing after a fresh boot; this should help you isolate the issue.

I have the same issue sometimes. My Honda Accord had no issues pairing to my Note 7, and connected to it perfectly every time. The car also initially paired quickly to the ZF3D, but when I get in the car I have to manually select the car in the Bluetooth menu. If I try waiting, it will either never connect, or flash like yours. connect for a second then lose connection.
either way, manually selecting it makes the phone keep its connection throughout the entire drive.
Hope it helps!

Thanks all, I tried all of the tips above to no effect. Manually selecting still drops within 5 seconds. Tonight I will try it in a different car to rule out a compatibility issue with mine. I aIso downloaded VLC and made sure everything was white listed. Phone reset had the same issue with no apps installed. My old Note 4 pairs just fine and stays connected. The Buick Bluetooth (2012) system isn't the most up to date either and has limited capability (phone only, no music) so it may be a car issue.
Thanks,

I am finding that auto connecting to BT in the car and on my Gear S3 is hit and miss, however i have had no issues when doing it manually, but it is a pain in the ass. hopefully ASUS will fix this when they release the nougat update!
My Zenfone 3 will pair with the car and a number comes up that I have to type into the phone but the keypad flashes up on the phone for 1 second and then disappears too quickly to enter it. I have tryed it about 10 times and always the same result. Anyone have any idears on how to fix it.
