"Upgraded" from pixel 4XL. On 4XL was able to set LDAC bitrate to 909/990 in developer options and use with no issues. On the 6 Pro it is unlistenable because of audio dropouts and stuttering. Is the BT radio on the 6 pro that much worse?
You sure that the bitrate was set/fixed on your Pixel 4 XL? Never worked for me.
I am also a defender of LDAC and loved using it on my P3, then switched over to my P4 and noticed that I had to force the bitrate EVERY time I made a connection. Then, a long time ago, like early 2020, after a firmware update, developer options didn't save in that regard. Every time I went to change the bitrate and left developer options and checked again, it reverted back to the standart settings. So on my P4 XL, setting the bitrate has been broken ever since. I reported this to Google, nobody gave a **** as of now.
I'm not sure if this is also the case with the P6 Pro, I'll try it in a second, have my XM4 next to me. Gimme a few.

Edit: Alright, so, I just tried it out with my WF XM4 and it works o.o
It saves "Optimized for Audio Quality (990kbps/909kbps)". F*** me, finally it works. Jikes.
So, it's not grayed out for me and it retains the setting.
It also works without a problem - no audio dropouts, no stuttering.
Do you have a case? What case do you use? It is big? Maybe its **** and it's blocking the phones antennas.
Also, what headphones do you use? Do they function without problem with your P4? Maybe they broke only recently, best try them out - now, again - with your old phone.
On the 4XL I had the issue where every time I connected I had to reset the rate, but once I did I could go back in and it would still be set. Confirmed working by the marked improvement in sound quality.

I have a case, took it off, no difference. I have the Sony XM3s. Still no issue with 4XL.
Same issue on my P6P, when set LDAC bitrate to 909/990 in developer options audio dropouts and stuttering. I also checked without case, still same issue.
However if you keep the phone stable for a minute, the connection stabilizes and issue goes away, but it comes back the minute you move the phone.
I think, this may be happening with every P6P and it may be a hardware limitation/issue or software issue.
Either way it's a potential deal breaker for me.
I don't have much hope that Google will address this within the next 14 days.
My Pixel 6 with ath-m50xbt2 has the same issue.
Only when turn off screen will the connection stablized and not stuttering.

The issue will be fixed by "late summer". cross your fingers.
If you (all) haven't already done so, try toggling the 'Disable Bluetooth A2DP hardware offload' in Developer settings. I would consistently get stutters once I turned the screen off prior to doing that..worth a try, at least
KERKEDAGAIN, does it make a sense? In theory it will make mono-audio or low quality what doesn't make sense with any bitrate...

If Wi-fi is disabled then LDAC working normal on 600kbps, but 900kbls not yet. With enabled Wi-fi only 300kbps working normal.
The New February update it's out and it's focused on Bluetooth issues. Let's see if it's finally fix View attachment 5531103
Ldac 600-900 fixed after february patch!
BUT! Need to reset Network setting in "settings - systems - reset options - reset wi-fi, bluetooth and network".
After that my Sony wh-1000xm4 start to play on 900kbps without any stutters ))

i successfully unlocked bootloader on the first try and installed googles latest image and ive been experiencing some problems with the audio. at first it wasn't playing anything at all. top earpiece works fine with calls and voicemails. but when i tried to play music or system sounds nothing would happen. ive restarted the phone multiple times and it worked but it kept cutting in and out. has anyone run into this problem before?
Yup same here. Verizon Pixel XL with unlocked bootloader, rooted, on the most recent November OTA. My audio would work for a while, but after the phone goes to sleep sometimes, the audio just stops working. I'll hear a pop from the speaker when the audio is supposed to start, but no audio afterwards. I can still get audio from the headphone jack and bluetooth though. A restart usually fixes it, so I don't think it's a hardware issue. Most likely a driver/software issue.

Yes same here when I would get a notification sometimes instead of the full notification chime it would kinda just do a quick pop/squeak ...I'm wondering if our devices have defective speakers or if it's just software. Can you do a quick test for me? Download AnTuTu benchmark and run it,and on the first video scene I think it is called maroon turn your volume all the way up and then try to turn it down one click and then back up and then back down and see if you here a clicking noise when your adjusting the volume back and forth

I'll try that. Out of curiosity though, are you also on the November Security Update? I haven't seen a lot of people complaining about this (this is a pretty serious issue) and I know a lot of people haven't gotten the OTA yet. So maybe the November OTA broke it.

My audio hasn't cut out for 4-5 hours now. I turned the volume down a bit and it hasn't acted up since.
Has anyone found a fix for the sound cutting out after a few seconds of a video or game? I have tried the soubdabout app, Turing the USB option off, disable Power save.. Still happening..

I have the same issue sometimes, I've read around the web and it seems to be a mix of software and hardware related, I read a guy suggest removing and putting back the case (in case you have one) and I did that and the sound came back, haven't had the issue again.

So I found a solution for the issue in my case, it does seem to be software but it's really weird cause the issue continues in any firmware, it started when I was on 6.0.1 PI2, then I flashed Nougat and had the same problem (I hated it and battery drain was killing me) I went back to 6.0 and changed to the PK2 version and the issue continued, it was really weird cause it would cut out in audio messages, games but not music, I also tried every single suggestion on every forum and post I could find EXCEPT the Soundabout app, today I gave up, installed soundabout, selected media to speakers and bam, problem solved, I still need further testing, but it seems ok for now, keep in mind that I also have "prevent USB audio routing" on and "Easy Mute" off.

Hi. I dropped my phone and have the same problem now. Did you get any useful help?
The new Firmware 47.1.A.12.179 is out:
https://xpericheck.com/device/G8441
in Android-Hilfe.de Thread they write that the firmware includes Android Security Patch is 01. May 2018.
It is the May security patch. Couldn't find any other changes so far.
Good day.
I noticed that wifi now connects intantly.
Good news about wifi, although for me, the issues are so intermittent that it's tough to tell.
SmartLock settings are still blank.
I won't be able to test car bluetooth until tomorrow, so fingers crossed. Although I did discover last weekend that if I pause from the car's headset, it will display the currently paused song after 2, or so, seconds.

To fix the smart lock, in your security settings find "Trusted Agents" and uncheck Smart Lock, then reboot and enable the agent for Smart Lock again. Worked for me.

As long as it does come with 8.1 I'm not too interested. Whole reason with going with Sony was project treble for faster updates. Disappointing to say the least.

You really can't see the benefit of Treble? We get security update each month! I'd never seen such quick updating before Treble, on non Google's phones.

I have to agree with Didgesteve. The only improvement is that the SmartLock screen stays visible - it still doesn't work, but you can see it. The wifi problems came back. And the bluetooth is the same, to possibly worse. Yay! for security updates, but from a user perspective, this update did nothing, as far as I can tell. At least there are workarounds for the problems. It's still a huge improvement over the Galaxy S5 it replaced.
Disappointing - WIFI is unable to stay connected for more than a 24 hours. Daily restarts are needed. No solution even after 4 months of this ridiculous behavior. SONY should admit this is a HW issue and offer replacements or solve it ASAP.

I have problems with battery drain after this update. Before the update, the phone could be used for more than two days without recharging and now I have to recharge after 8 hours without much use. Consequently I have deleted almost all apps from my phone and did everything reasonable (yes, stamina mode is activated). No success. Sad.
I'm posting this thread as I need your help to figure out if all OnePlus 5T devices are affected by the issue:
When listening to music I started to hear some audio crackling and sounds especially when the screen was off. I started to investigate and tried different ROMs, firmware etc. but they all had the same issue. I even sent an RMA request and my device was "repaired" while still no being fixed. Then I started testing it on another OnePlus 5T and the issue was there too. So I'm starting to wonder if this is a bigger issue.
Short Issue Description:
Whenever the fingerprint sensor is active, the audio wave skips a few milliseconds which you can hear as a clicking noise.
Testing:
0) Make sure to have your fingerprint enabled in settings and do the following:
1) Best to use a sine wave generator (these fancy beep sounds) like on: http://onlinetonegenerator.com/
2) Start playing it via loudspeaker or wired(!) headphones and listen to it.
3) Lock your screen while keep playing it and unlock it with your fingerprint.
4) Start pressing the fingerprint sensor multiple times for at least 20 to 30 seconds. Do it quick and softly or hold it on the sensor for a second and start pressing it again.
>> Do you hear any distortion or unusual sounds despite the on-going beep?
I made a quick video of this issue showing that the audio output stops for a few milliseconds which leads to this issue. It is not just when unlocking the phone but sometimes when it's locked too. Pressing the fingerprint scanner just makes it easily reproducible.
(quality is bad I know, I just needed to film this quite quickly)
Do you consider this as something that's bothering? I'm in the office right now and can't test it.

Yes!
I am able to reproduce the same. I had always heard the breaks, but have always thought it was something with the audio or network quality, but this!
I also found (a long time ago) that the cpu briefly boosts to 2.4GHz when tapping the fingerprint sensor. I don't know if it's related to OP's problem, just something I noticed; it may very well be because of 1+'s stock kernel.
Also on the YT app, when tapping or swiping on the fingerpring sensor soemthing similar to what OP said happend, but it's the video that freezes and not the audio.

Well I have worse battery live on Android 10.
Something keeps phone awake and drain battery.
I have about 1 or 2 hours less SOT.
Looking for solution. ?
I ended up upgrading, at first, my phone was lagging when scrolling in any app, and the battery was somehow draining a bit faster but I managed to fix it.
Try this if you have a related problem.
-Go into developer settings
-Scroll almost to the button
-Disable MIUI optimization
-Reboot
-Enable MIUI optimization
-Reboot
Also, the permission of most of my apps got lost, like access to the microphone, storage, phone... so I had to re-enable them manually because they were "blocked".
For those experiencing problems, it's probably worth doing a full wipe. I tend to find its needed after as version update of Android.
I did a wipe and haven't encountered problems as of yet. Bluetooth, apps and battery all fine for me.

I didn't get much feedback so I suppose it isn't a very popular issue. However, I've a solution to share for the annoying problem.
After doing a full wipe of the phone the issue was still present and I was still facing connection problems.
So I enabled the developers options menu and started to play with Bluetooth hidden settings.
At first I downgraded the AVRCP version from the default 1.4 version to 1.3 but it was not working, so I tried 1.5 (same issue) and 1.6. This version was slightly better... The car was authenticating and showing the Bluetooth audio codec in a small icon beneath the device name (Ford Audio -> SBC) but the connection was not stable and dropping. So I changed the default audio codec and I set SBC.
Everything started to work well and I was able to make several hands free call without issues anymore.
I hope it helps whoever could have similar issues.

Today I discovered that settings changed in the developer menu are not persistent and don't survive to a phone reboot. So every time I get in the car I've to repeat settings.
This is quite annoying, any solutions other than waiting for another software update?
Another alternative would be changing the car, but it's more expensive than buying another mobile phone.

Did a full wipe after the android 10 update and for now batterylife shortened for me. Hopefully after a few charges it will be better again.

Think you are right on the battery. Mine has settled down and not as good as before
I think after few cycles of charging it will be better...

After the upgrade the phone cannot connect anymore with the Bluetooth of my Ford C-Max (2011, it cannot be updated and I cannot update the car yet).
Is it happening to anyone else?

Me too...
I've got a Ford Focus with Sync 1.1, and have got issues with bluetooth. First of all, my car can't recognize signal level and i've got problem making calls and closing calls...

Changing profiles in the developer menu is not helping... I was able to make a couple of calls, no more. Connection is continuously dropping.
Full wipe was not a solution. Before the upgrade I never had a disconnection.
I also tested a couple of Bluetooth profiles apps, including Android Auto, but no luck.
I think we need a fix ASAP.
Is there an official support site where to make complaints regarding this update?
Ever since I updated to 11.0.3.0PGGEUXM I've been unable to use one of my wallet apps (bbva wallet), and am afraid something else breaks if I update; has anyone from Mexico updated and been able to use it again, along with citibanamex pay?

I'm opening a ticket reporting this issue with my phone...
I hope It will work
After 20 days I decided to downgrade back to MIUI V11.0.3.0PGGEUXM based on android 9, the only thing I liked about android 10 was the dynamic MAC address but it didn't compensate the high battery drain from the Android System, with up to 9-10 hours of CPU usage and about 6-6:30 hours of Screen-on time. I will test how many hours of SOT I have now.
