I factory reset the watch and try to pair from Android wear. The pass code is shown on the phone but when I click to pair I immediately get an error saying that the phone can not communicate with the Moto 360. I've deleted cache on phone, Android wear and Google play services but nothing seems to make a difference. I have two Motos and I get the same issue on both. The phone is also paired to a Bose Soundlink III without issues so it is not a general Bluetooth problem.
Hi,
I recently purchased a Huawei Honor Band Zero smartwatch and pairing it with the P8000 is a pain in the ass. I may have tried around 100 times (no exaggeration) and I managed to get it just once. But then, once I got too far from the phone while wearing the watch and it disconnected, I haven't been able to pair the two again.
I've tried with my previous phone, a Xiaomi Redmi 1S, and they pair every time in seconds. Then I can send data from the watch to the phone, and setup the watch from the phone.
I asked @BlueFlame4, author of the visi0nary kernel, whether this could be solved at the kernel level (along with other bluetooth related issues, such as music skipping over BT) and he thinks that maybe the BT stack is messed up, but the solution could be hard to achieve.
Well, today I've been trying again and have discovered a difference between the Redmi 1S and the P8000. When I turn on BT on the Redmi 1S, the watch appears as both a known and paired device. If I tap the device's settings button I can see an input device profile I can activate or not on the phone, such as BT headsets showing audio and voice profiles or options to share phone contacts. Well, on the P8000, I see no box to set up the watch as an input profile. But I remember seeing it the only time the watch paired correctly with the phone.
How can this be possible? Any way (the phone is rooted, so I can do almost anything) to get it working like it does with the Redmi 1S?
Thanks.

Hello there fellow Xiaomi users, I have a problem with my Bluetooth earbuds and it's driving me insane! I hope you can help me out. When I connected my newly purchased bluetooth sony earbuds (the model is WF-XB700) I noticed that the volume was really low, maybe 50% less than it should've been. I was perplexed, but had a couple of quick ways to determine the problem. I connected the earplugs to a Iphone 8 and they worked just fine, 100% of their capacity. Then I connected my Xiaomi Mi 2A lite to some other bluetooth headphones (model Pioneer se-ms7bt) and they also worked as they should've. Then I connected the earbuds to a Xiaomi Mi A3 and to my surprise, I could also detect the Low Volume Issue there too! So, it must be something Android/Xiaomi related.
Then I went on a really energy draining odyssey on google to find a solution. What I did find was, firsty, that it was a known issue and secondly, that the myriad of solutions presented did not help me at all. This is a list of the things I tried, some of which spawned problems too :
1) Disabling absolute volume in developer settings.
2) Tinkering with all the options in the develper option - even the following (I will copy paste in from an other thread , which according to many people has worked :
Enable Developer Options (options -> system -> about phone -> click build number 7 times)
Press back
Go to settings, and search AVRCP.
Click on Bluetooth AVRCP Version and ensure it is on 1.6.
Next, search for Absolute
Select Disable Absolute Volume and turn this toggle on, if it isn't already.
Unpair all Bluetooth devices. Restart your device. Pair the devices again. To the right of each Paired Bluetooth device in the Bluetooth settings page is a gear icon, go into each device and turn off the Phone Calls toggle, leaving only Media audio enabled.
Exit settings, connect to the Bluetooth device, start playing something. Increase the volume using the volume up button and rejoice as the volume goes as loud as you need!!!
3) Putting the volume up in the Sony Headphones app. - So, officially the app doesn't support the WF-XB700. There are two options for detection. The first is a list of the supported devices (mine is not there) and the other is a ,,detect via bluetooth''. Tried the second option but it doesn't work
4) Increasing the volume on the physical buttons on the device. Mine are earbuds and have only one button for on/off
5) Ensuring the eartips are tightly fit in my ear.
6) Making sure the earbud isn't blocked by anything.
7) Resetting the phone
8) Changing the Region - This I actually did not succeed in doing. It turns out that the option to change the region has been removed. If there is a way to do it, please inform me.
9) Trying all the volume booster apps in the store.
10) Restart or enable and disable airplane mode
11) Forgeting and pairing the device again
Could the bluetooth version difference be the problem. Mine is 4.2 and the buds are 5.0. According to google there should't be a difference regarding the sound volume/quality, only range and connection strenght. Please help me, I have wasted more than five hours already and I ran out of options to try. Thanks in advance !

Xiaomi removes Bluetooth codecs intentionally from this phone (and seems like from Mi A3 too). Because Xiaomi dont want to pay 1$ fee for codec. Thats why it works as expected on iPhone. It's all about greediness.
Same codec issue is proper on Miui roms too. This means Redmi 6 Pro has an Bluetooth codec issue too. We can probably say same thing (according to ur first post) for Mi A3 and for its Miui version Xiaomi Mi CC9e.
- Redmi 6 Pro
- Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite
- Xiaomi Mi A3
- Xiaomi Mi CC9e
All of them probably has same issue. I didnt use any flagship of Xiaomi or any other Android phone since Jelly Bean so cant say anything about other brands except Apple. I used an iPhone between those times. iPhones has proper bluetooth codecs. You cant fix it via resetting ur phone or something like that.
SBC is the default codec and none of others will work.
Qualcomm is the owner of these aptX, aptX LL, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive audio codecs. We have an qualcomm chipset on our phone too but xiaomi didnt want to pay for these to earn more money from us. So thats why we are stuck on SBC. Dont buy any android device just by looking its specs from websites. Check out everything in the shop (bluetooth, camera,..etc.) before buy.

They are literally making 1$ per phone. Stop spreading missinformation
Hello.
I have a problem as in the title of the post.
I often forget my phone - Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro with the latest Miui and Android 13 - and there is no sound on the watch when it loses the bluetooth connection, so I don't notice the lack of the phone.
I had no problem with this with an old Amazfit watch.
The connection to Huawei Health is still active and the 'bluetooth disconnection reminder' option is enabled.
Is it normal? Only the disconnection message is visible.
