Bluetooth Problems
 
So I have my galaxy connected to my 2014 brz limited and I'm having some issues. The bluetooth keeps cutting in and out when I'm playing music and I'm not sure what's wrong. Could it be the car trying to connect to other devices that have bluetooth on or what? I couldn't find any other topics on this so not sure if this has already been discussed. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

I have the same issue with my HTC Evo 4g LTE that was never resolved. What galaxy do you have?

Its been discussed quite a bit here with no definitive answer as to why. It definitely seems to be a mix of issues between phone firmware and the head unit. But try this, when your phone asks to sync messages cancel that. Everytime I let mine sync messages it did the disconnect re connect thing over and over. Also try changing the settings in the head unit to connect from phone instead of head unit that helped some people. I have an s3 and haven't had any issues since I stopped sync messages.

HTC DNA same issue, firmware update fixed it for about a week. Tried not syncing contacts and that helped more than the firmware update, but it eventually came back again. So, idk either. you can try those 2 things and see if helps.

I have an s3. I stopped syncing messages and haven't had issues since as well. Phone worked fine for some time with messages on when I first got the car then randomly one day started cutting in and out constantly.

I had updated to 4.3.3 on my HTC and it fixed it until the next time it connected to the car then it happened again haha.

Are you using a 3rd party music app? I found that it works more reliably when using the stock one

Are you running a custom OS on your phone? I know a couple months back Samsung was still holding out on giving up the bt driver and that lead to some issues if you had flashed something like cyanogenmod.

I'm in a 2013 FRS and run the basic hu without and quality or connection problems from my own s4

I ended up getting an iPhone and problem solved. Also connects to my OBD2 unit without a problem as well.

Same issue with my HTC DNA, just delete the sync data on the headunit and phone and repeat every time the headunit gives attitude.

The price we pay for andriod phones...Apple must be oiling peoples palms to make sure shit works correctly all the time with everything.

What happens to me and my S3 with the BRZ headunit is that on the auto connect when i start the car, it will randomly disconnect after a minute or so, then reconnect later when it feels like it. I tried waiting until the car is on, then turning on bluetooth on my phone, that seemed to fix it. It only started happening after i updated to the latest version of android.
