Bluetooth disconnects from phone

I am a new Motorola Droid 3 user. I have tried 3 different blueteeth....a Jabra BT135, a Plantronics 520 and a Samsung HM3500. All three have the same issues. 1.) the connection between the earpiece and the phone breaks frequently. Sometimes when this happens, the phone automatically goes to speakerphone, sometimes not. 2.) it does not recognize many of the contact names and the names that it gives as options aren't even close. 3.) Frequently it will say "Opening message" when I request it to make a call. The issues defeat the purpose of hands free, since I usually have to pull off of the road and manually use the contact list to make a simple phone call or to reconnect the bluetooth.

Another thought I had was it was the "BluetoothDUN" process that may be causing it. I ended it, and tried another conversation. The result was a failure.
This means my original theory is still valid. Does anyone have any input or similar experiences. Furthermore, could people post the apps they have downloaded & installed, to see if we can find a correlation there?
The VZW store employee who I spoke with when I had the issue with my original phone suggested that it could be an older bluetooth adapter causing the issue. However, I can see this causing issues with disconnecting, but once the system disconnects, the bluetooth on the phone is supposed to be smart enough to disconnect the bluetooth. I noticed that bluetooth was still showing "connected" in the top menu bar. This leads me to believe that the bluetooth unit in the phone is defective (indicating there is a rash of defective bluetooth devices), or the software is buggy.
Hi Mordhelm,
I understand your discontent. I would be frustrated if my Bluetooth connection failed at random. I checked my resources and this issue is not noted as a known issue with this device. This issue could be the result of some third party app conflict. Run your Droid 3 on Safe Mode for while using your Bluetooth device and see if this resolves the issue. Safe Mode temporarily disables all applications that have been installed via the Android Market. Performing this troubleshooting step is necessary to determine whether a 3rd party application is the cause of an Operating System / Application issue.
If issue continues while running phone in safe mode the next troubleshooting step will be to do a Factory Reset. Please keep in mind that performing a hard reset will remove ALL data including the Google account, system data, application data, application settings, and downloaded applications.

  • Bluetooth streaming from phone where is A2DP SINK?

    I've had this computer for over a year now and have never been able to stream audio to it from my iphone5, it pairs easily.
    Ive been checking for updated drivers for it for awhile, but the last updated driver @ HP is from 2013.  I went to Media Tek's website today after i found out they bought Ralink and found there updated driver dated 2014 and tried it, but i still can't stream from phone to pc. I also tried uninstalling the driver and then installing a generic driver but there is none listed.  What can i do to get this functioning?

    Hello @Late4Dinner,
    I understand that you have been having issues streaming from your iphone5 on your HP ENVY h8-1534 Desktop PC running Windows 8.1. Are you able to sync and stream via bluetooth to any other device on your computer? Have you tried it on the original operating system Windows 8? I would advise you to use all the drivers that are on the HP ENVY h8-1534 Desktop PC Drivers page. As these are the driver specifically designed for your computer they will have the best chance of working for you.
    If you could answer the questions I have raised in this post I will endeavor to look into a solution for you. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Smart Watch 3 keeps disconnecting from phone

    My swr50 keeps disconnecting from my motoG phone. I haven't figured out the circumstances for this...it seems random...I realise that I haven't had any notifications for a while, and none of the "OK Google" stuff works.My phone app says that it's connected, but it clearly ain't! 

    I wonder why it would disconnect that much,no problem like that on Z1. Do you have any task killers or antivirus?
    What about stamina?

  • Bluetooth disconnected on my iPhone but it will connect on my husbands.  I have been using this bluetooth for a year and now it won't reconnect

    My bluetooth disconnected from my iphone 3.  I have been using it for months.  I checked the bluetooth and it connected on my husand's iphone4 but won't reconnect on my phone.

    Try doing this:
    Settings -> General -> Reset -> Reset Network Connections
    Phone will reboot, you will have to enter your WiFi Passwords again - BUT should resolve the problem.

    Thanks for the response angel but apparently this issue is a bug in Windows Phone software. I'm surprised there aren't more people complaining about it here on this forum.
    I've been searching around the web and found quite a few discussions about the topic. It affects all Lumias from what I can tell, even HTC phones. When the bluetooth disconnects from Windows Phone it triggers the music player to start playing again even if it's been idle for a long time.
    It's extremely annoying to have your phone start blaring music when it dicsonnects from random bluetooth devices. Doesn't seem like it should be the hardest thing in the world to fix, but this issue dates back over a year based on what I've found around the web. I can't believe the Windows Phone team hasn't put this on higher priority.

  • Phone disconnects from car Bluetooth when skipping a song on Spotify.

    How's that for an oddly specific problem? Using a Samsung Galaxy Ace 3, Spotify and the car Bluetooth (Suzuki Swift, if that's relevant).  Phone connects to Bluetooth no problem.  To the problem: When selecting a song from a playlist or artist (I assume from anywhere else, but I haven't tried) the phone will disconnect from Bluetooth, Spotify will continue playing, silently, then the phone will reconnect, and start playing through the car speakers (already a few seconds progressed into the song).  The same issue occurs (disconnecting from Bluetooth, then reconnecting) a) when skipping songs (either through the car's Bluetooth controls, or manually on the Spotify app) and b) when the song reaches its end and naturally progresses to the next. Plot twist, though, if I pause the song, then skip to the next one, it will start playing the new song instantly, with no disconnect issue. I've tried this with other music playing apps (aka not Spotify) and the issue does not persist. EDIT: I've tried offline and online, problem persists for both. I'm sure you can imagine that this is an incredibly annoying issue, and I'd love any support you can offer. Especially given that mobile playing is 95% of the reason I'm paying for premium.

  • Iphone keeps disconnection from car bluetooth

    My phone is great but every 5 minutes or less it disconnects from the bluetooth in my car, which is very annoying and dangerous since if I want it to stay connected while I'm driving I need to constantly fiddle with it. I should add that I have the phone lock enabled and have tried different auto-lock times from one minute to never and it still disconnects from blue tooth no matter what the setting. Any ideas?

    More on the issue.  If it is connected and I try to use the bluetooth prompts in my car to make a call, It will start to ring, my phone screen will go black and I can't do anything or hear anything.  It will come back after about 10-15 seconds but the speaker button will be missing .  Then all of a sudden, the speaker button reappears.but it is not on bluetooth anymore.

  • E52 Disconnecting from bluetooth IQ system in Hold...

    Hello, Has anyone had this problem of an E52 phone disconnecting from the IQ system in a Holden Commodore SV6 via Bluetooth after each phone call?.  The phone has to be re paired to the system after each phone call made or received.  I am using the latest firmware 054.003.

    I have been pulling my hair out with the same issues, my 6720 would unpair after every call, and they could not tell me why, I got a C5 and it done the same. I am currently using my daughters old 6120 and it only sort of works - I can use the speaker but not use the IQ panel, at least it pairs up etc.
    What is most disappointing is that Holden tell me it is a Nokia issue and Nokia tell me it is a Holden issue and Telstra just don't care. If you go to the Holden website none of the listed IQ compatible phones from Nokia are still in manufacture. I have been waiting for Holden since July to update their web site, I actually rang them today and got the same answer as I did in July.
    It is is disappointing that Australia's largest car manufacturer is not closely working with Nokia to keep this information up to date. I did notice the only current phone on the Holden site is the iPhone4 - it is like they are trying to push people that way!

  • My phone will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I retype the password it says it is wrong. It will eventually work but I have to wait for a message to pop up on my screen to allow me to retype the wifi password.

    When I first got my phone it worked perfectly fine with the wifi. Although later on I began to have problems connecting it. It will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I try to retype the password it tells me it is wrong, although it is right. It will eventually work but in its own time, a message will pop up and allow me to type in the password and it will work. But sometimes it takes an hour or more and sometime it takes 10 minutes. I've seen where other people have had this problem but I don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my phone or if it's with my wifi. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does this happen with all Wi-Fi hotspots?  A specific one?
    Have you tried forgetting the Wi-Fi connection and then reconnecting to it?
    What about power cycling the Wi-Fi router?

  • How can i transfer contacts from my iPhone5 (6.1.2) to Benz C200 via bluetooth, as soon as i hit receive contacts, bluetooth disconnects.

    I am unable to transfer my contacts from my iphone5 to Benz c200.
    as soon as i press receive contacts Bluetooth disconnects, I can see from my iphone under bluetooth.
    is it possible to do? if yes how?

    The bluetooth system must support the PBAP bluetooth profile. If it does, transfer is automatic when the connection is made. If it does not, you can not transfer them. Check the manual for the system to see if it supports PBAP. If it does not, contact your dealer to see if an update is available.

  • Audio streaming from phone to yoga 2 pro via bluetooth issue

    Hi everyone,
    I have got a Yoga pro 2 recently and the problem I'm having is that I;m unable to stream audio from my Nexus 5 phone to the pc through bluetooth. The device and the pc paired normally during setup. Though I find it odd that when I turn off bluetooth connectivity on the phone and turn it back on, the pc does not automatically connect so I have to unpair or remove and redo a new find and pair for the two. Ok, now the problem is after the connection is set nothing happens and there is no way to stream the audio to the yoga pc running windows 8.1. On my other pc, a Sony Vaio, also running win 8.1 pro (upgraded from win 8 pro) , once the phone and the Sony are paired via bluetooth, a windows pops out to immediately play the audio. I have check all the bluetooth drivers and they are up to date, and I even downloaded bluetooth drivers from lenovo support but no change. What's missing? Why can I not stream audio via BT? Why nothing happens when connected?

    Bluetooth tethering is sharing your phone's internet connection with the computer, that's why there is an extra charge.  This is not what you want.  I would go into the bluetooth settings of both your phone and computer to make sure you are not missing something.  Also, an easier solution (bluetooth is unbearably slow for file transfer) may be to look into the app called AirDroid.  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sand.airdroid&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zYW5kLmFpcmRyb2lkIl0.

  • Bluetooth disconnects randomly from Thunderbolt

    Is anyone experiencing trouble keeping their bluetooth paired with the thunderbolt? My headset will disconnect without warning and with no cause- I have not moved or opened a new app.

    After researching this issue I was unable to locate issues reported to Verizon Wireless regarding the bluetooth disconnecting. The issue may be with the actual bluetooth and not your handset. You can ensure your Bluetooth settings are correct using the directions below. If you continue to have issues, we can speak with you to trouble-shoot your equipment and bluetooth. 
    From the Home screen, select the applications tab (lower-left corner).
    Select Settings.
    Select Wireless & networks.
    Select Bluetooth settings.
    Select Bluetooth.
    Bluetooth is enabled if a green check mark is present.
