Nokia 1020 Bluetooth connectivity lost

For the second time, my 1020 suddenly for no apparent reason looses it's bluetooth connectivity. I'm listening to some music when it starts breaking up. Then I lose the connection altogether and cannot reconect. Have restarted and hard booted but to no avail. Will try factory reboot if I get desperate but it's a hassle. Anyone else have similar problems?

Hi, grahammeltzer.
Welcome to the Nokia Support Discussions!
To which accessory is your phone connected to? Note that compatibility with 3rd party devices (for example, accessories) depends on Bluetooth standards and applications related by it's manufacturer.
Here are basic fixes that you can try on your phone:
1. Make sure that your phone is not in Battery Saver or Flight mode.
2. Make sure that the pairing devices are set to be visible to one another, and that there are no obstructions blocking the space between the devices. 
3. If you cannot establish a connection or lose it soon after pairing, make sure that your phonebook contacts do not have special characters or blanks before the name; rename or remove them if they do.
4. If the above steps do not help, start the pairing process from the beginning:
Clear the paired devices list on your phone's Bluetooth settings and restart your phone.
Reset the pairing Bluetooth device to clear information about the last Bluetooth devices.
Go through the pairing process. Refer to the pairing device's user manual to find reset and pairing instructions.
The Bluetooth symbol should appear on your phone screen.
Just let us know if provided workarounds did not work. All the best!

  • Magic Mouse: Bluetooth Connection Lost

    Periodically (and extremely frustrating) my iMac screen will announce "Bluetooth connection lost".
    There seems to be no logical explanation. But...
    This leaves me with a totally functionless Magic Mouse.
    Is there a way of re-establishing Magic Mouse/Bluetooth without going through the hassle of connecting a USB mouse to reach System Preferences?

    I'm starting to have problems with the Bluetooth not recognizing the Magic Mouse even though 1) it's discoverable and 2) I favorited it. Does this have anything to do with the new Magic Prefs app?
    One other thing that could make a major difference is that I downloaded USB Overdrive in order to use a Logitech joystick. It really should have no bearing on something that is not a USB device, though that preference panel does recognize the Magic Mouse...in spirit if not in function. I cannot scroll with it or use the touch-specific functions of that device. If Bluetooth cannot read it, what good is it anyway?

  • Nokia 6350 bluetooth connection to PC may or may-n...

    My issue is this:
    MY HARDWARE / SOFTWARE:
    - Nokia 6350 phone
    - IOGEAR GBU321 usb bluetooth
    - Windows XP on Dell Latitude D610
    - PC Suite 7.1.51.0
    PROBLEM:
    PC Suite works fine with my phone if I'm in range. If I walk far away and bluetooth connection is lost, when I return to range, the synch btwn PC and Phone MAY or MAY NOT resume. Most of the time it does, but sometimes it does not.  I've tried to close/re-start PC-Suite to no avail. I've tried to re-detect my phone via PC Suite...nothing.
    The workaround fix I've found  to resume the PC--Phone connection is this:
    - On the bottom left of task bar, right click on the bluetooth icon and "Explore My Bluetooth Places"
    - Delete "Nokia 6350 OBEX File Transfer"
    - right click on the bluetooth icon and select "Quick Connect"-->"File Transfer"-->"Find Devices"-->"Show All Devices"-->select the Noka 6350 (for some reason it's visible here)-->and click "Finish". 
    Then suddenly, my PC-Suite Icon show connected again and I'm back in business.
    WHAT is causing this and HOW to fix this permanently ? Something is timing out in PC-Suite.
    Thanks,
    Neel

    Possibly contact your dealer, I work in the motor trade, and most manufacturers can update the sofware for their bluetooth systems for newer phones, it could be a compatibility problem, the handsfree set will have been built before the phone !

  • Bluetooth Connection lost after a few seconds - EV...

    Hey,
    I have an new Nokua Lumia 920. I want to connect my Lumia via Bluetooth to my laptop and in the university I treif to connect it to another laptop, as well as to my old XDA Touch Diamon!
    The problem: I can find all bluetooth devices and can also connect to them, BUT every connection is lost after about 5 seconds. This cannot be! Here are my firmware versions - are there issues?
    OS-version: 8.0.10211.204
    firmware-revision-version: 1232.5957.1308.0007
    hardware-revision-version: 1.0.0.0
    radio-software-version: 1.0.202093.3
    chip-SOC-Version: 8960
    I am located in germany. Anyone has a hint or solution - phone nearly useless to me without bluetooth.
    Best regards

    You do not have to be bluetooth connected to transfer files to and from the phone.
    Initiate the trandfer and it will happen. If they have been paired before, no passcode will be required.
    Theey won't keep a BT connection because none of the profiles the phone has requires one.

  • Bluetooth connection lost after wakeup ( CSR - bc4 )

    hi
    after wakeup, my aluminium keyboard cannot connect anymore to my macbook pro. when i go to systempreferences/bluetooth i can see the bluetooth's host name is CSR - bc4 (???). when i turn bluetooth off and on again the hostname does set correctly to the name of my macbook-pro. after the restart of the bluetooth-service my keyboard works like a charm.
    any suggestions?
    greetings from switzerland

    I am having the same problem.
    If I use the new aluminium wireless keyboard (with my existing wireless mighty mouse) neither the mouse nor the keyboard reconnect to the computer on waking from sleep - it does announce that I have lost the bluetooth connection but tapping/clicking/waiting doesn't facilitate reconnection.
    If I send the iMac to sleep again (using the power button - the only way I have to get any signal to my machine at this point - I haven't tried Morse Code yet) it does then recognise the peripherals on waking the second time.
    I have also noticed that if I turn the mouse and keyboard off causing the "connection lost" warning and then put the machine to sleep, everything does reconnect on waking (switching them back on of course).
    I have it set not to wake from sleep using bluetooth devices, so that I can tidy my mouse/keyboard away without disturbing the mac. Using my old white wireless keyboard (but the same Mighty Mouse) it works beautifully again as it always did in Tiger with only a minimal delay on waking from sleep before reconnecting automatically.
    The aluminium keyboard is beautiful. But we need a fix - anyone? Is it a hardware problem? A set of dud keyboards? Has anyone found that a different aluminium wireless keyboard does work with the same setup? Or that their troublemaking keyboard does work on other machines?

  • Bluetooth connection lost during sleep

    Intel iMac frequently loses its bluetooth connection with a magic mouse during sleep and doesn't re-connect upon waking up.  A restart is used to re-establish the bluetooth connection. The iMac is a late 2012 model (2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, 21.5 inch screen).

    as a workaround then I suspect that turning off the mouse and back on again will make it work
    windows 8.1 have the same issue with my razor mouse not with my magic trackpad though
    I disconnect the razor mouse and reconnect and all is good quicker then reboot

  • Bluetooth Connectivity Lost

    A few days ago, my Plantronics 520 bluetooth headset stoppoed working despite the fact that I got the "Bluetooth ribbon" icon on my 8310 indicating that I was paired and connected.  I deleted the device and re-paired it and the same thing occurred.  To try and figure out if the issue was with the bluetooth headset or the 8310, I paired a Motorola H15 bluetooth headset and the same problem occured. It seems to me that the problem is with the 8310.
    Also a right before this occured, my son paired the 8310 with a bluetooth system in my car.  I did not like the way it sounded so I deleted the car bluetooth system.
    Anyone have any suggestions on what I might do to the 8310 to get bluetooth operating or what the problem might be?
    david

    I was going to delete the message because I simply turned the 8310 off, took out the battery, let the phone sit for a few seconds and then started the phone up again and my bluetooth connectivity worked properly. Dont know what the problem was but the issue is resolved.

  • IMac freezes during sleep bluetooth connection lost

    I have a 27" iMac and when the screen goes to sleep I lose my bluetooth connection and must restart the iMac using a wired mouse or the power button.
    I have a wireless Apple keyboard, magic mouse and magic trackpad.  The screensaver is off, energy saver set to leave the hard drive running, and simply darken the screen after 15 minutes. 
    Every morning all my bluetooth devices are nonresponsive.  Fortunately I have an old Apple USB mouse which allows me to restart. 
    I've tried deleting user preferences for com.apple.bluetooth.plist.
    Should I just do an archive and install?
    Thanks,

  • Nokia E5 bluetooth connection with car

    When I connect my E5 with Toyota over bluetooth I can't prevent autoanswer - my phone automaticaly answers after 2 seconds. I tried other phones (Sony Ericsson and Nokia E52) and with them there were no problems.
    I tried to disable autoanswer on my Nokia E5 but I couldn't.
    Any ideas?

    Just wondered whether under Menu > Ctrl. panel > Settings > General > Enhancement > Wireless car kit = Default and presumably it is here you have set Automatic answer = Off ?

  • Nokia n8 USB connection lost

    when everything was working fine and smooth,
    today i lost my N8's connectivity all of a sudden
    it wont connect to any mode, not PC suite, mass transfer etc
    all i get displayed by windows is" the USB device is malfunctioned"
    i checked with different PC, different cables
    uninstalled PC suite and every single piece of Nokia from my pc
    still problem persist
    any help??
    PS: i got charging popup when i connect n8 by usb cable!!
    *note;  removed mention of tool not available to general public.

    Hi sid88840,
    In order to fix this isue, I would suggest you to perform a hard reset. First of all, back up your data using Nokia Suite (Tools > Back up). Once your data is fully backed up,  type *#7370# on the keypad.  Default lock code is 12345.
    The hard reset will dellete all your personal information, that's why a back up is very important.
    Alternatively, you may also check for updates on Nokia Suite (by going to Tools > Updates).
    If the problem persists, I would invite you to visit your local Nokia care point to get the phone checked, If it needs a repair, it could be done there.
    Hope this helps.

    Pfrancoise

  • Nokia x6 bluetooth connection to hands free kit

    Hi
    Hoping someone can help me.  Have just got my new X6 and its great except that i am having problems with my connection to my bluetooth car kit.  It connects fine and has paired with it but it seems to disconnecting every 25 seconds or so and then reconnecting 25 seconds later.  Its driving me bananas cos each time it does it the radio cuts out. If i am on a call it seems to keep connection.  I fell i may have missed a setting somewhere but cant find anything about this.  Can anyone tell me what to do??

  • Constantly getting "Bluetooth Connection Lost"

    I have an Iogear Model GME225B Bluetooth Mouse. It will work fine for a while and then just lose it's connection. It has been replaced once already, but I am wondering if there is something wrong with my Powerbook G4's bluetooth module. Do these ever go bad? Has anyone else had problems with this Bluetooth Mouse?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    An update on my Iogear Bluetooth Optical Mini Mouse.
    I sent the mouse back for the second time. Iogear promptly sent me a replacement. When I tried to set it up, everything went fine except it would not pair.
    I went online to their live chat with a Tech and he had me set it up under Bluetooth as follows:
    Select "Any Device" instead of "mouse", tell the computer "do not generate the pass key", Select the option that you can put the pass key in, use the passkey "1234."
    It worked! and has been working perfect so far with no disconnections unless of course it sits idle for a while.
    I love this mouse. It is such a perfect size for me and Iogear has been the best. They truly warrant their product.

  • Bluetooth connection lost after sleep mode

    I'm using a bluetooth keyboard with my iPhone. It works great. However, if the phone goes into sleep mode, it does not keep the connection and I have to re-establish the connection through settings each time. Is there a way to keep the connection or have it automaticaly reconnect?

    I use the Apple bluetooth. When I sleep my iPad it actually puts the keyboard to sleep. Probably to save the batteries. When I wake the iPad, I still have to go to the Bluetooth and reconnect via the iPad. The keyboard automatically turns back on so I don't have to power it on. I think that is the best you could hope for.

  • Bluetooth Connection lost

    My Plantronics M155 device loses connection every 20 seconds when the phone is not charging.  When charging, the connection is maintained until the display dims.  any ideas?

    Hi thanks for that info, but this is the third bb and it is always the device. I have just this minute paired with my wifes phone no problem at all, went straght back and followed the exact same procedure and it pairs but then will not connect so once again has to be the device, I have tried to contact BB direct but cannot find a link to them. Looks like another lengthy call to Vodafone BlackBerry Tech support and all they will do is send me another divice, surley someone will want to know that it is a problem or is it the power of my mind causes this  problem?
