So I purchased some new JBL headphones black Friday. They work perfectly with everything but my Essential phone. Basically the audio cuts in and out less the 12" away. I listen to a lot of music and this is complete BS! Bluetooth in my car is sometimes sketchy and also on my Bose SoundLink Mini.

Do all of you have connection issues? Is it a firmware issue? I'm still on stock 7.1.1 with latest security patch.

P.S. All this happens on my wife's white one as wellwith same everything.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] wolfhelm:
I have the same issue with multiple bluetooth audio devices on mine. Someone suggested turning off Bluetooth scanning in the location portion of the system settings but that did not fix it for me.

I'm on the Oreo beta.

The one thing turning off scanning DID fix for me in terms of Bluetooth issues was the constant disconnects I was seeing to my smart watch. That's stable now.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] LordLugard:
No issues with BT on my PH-1 with the numerous BT headphones i've used it with.

Currently using a Bose Soundlink OE and no complaints whatsoever.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] Turbojugend:
Tried all Roms, stock and Oreo and BT audio is fine on my end.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jakkzen:
After messing with the Bluetooth settings, I removed all devices and rebooted the phone as well. I paired the JBL and sure enough they work fine with no audio dropping. So I'm wondering if something is going on when I first initially pair the devices. I'm not a radio engineer, so I'm only guessing. It seems like it's not getting full handshake with the devices I first pair with. Only after I forget the device, reboot, the pair again will it have a good grip on the device.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] dc82:
I got a red OnePlus 5T and white Essential at the same time and on looks alone used the essential. I've had two black models previous to this. I went to the gym after syncing my BT headphones and the result was music that but out every .5 seconds. Needless to say, I wanted to kill myself. I tried deleting all devices, resyncing, restarting, nada. I immediately went to the OnePlus with no issues. The essential is such a good value proposition especially with regards to build quality but I'm running out of reasons to keep trying it, price aside.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] jakkzen:
I totally get that. I haven't had the Bluetooth issues any more. Unfortunately now it will randomly freeze up. So, I am actually thinking of selling mine and getting a OnePlus 5t.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tanwg:
Just want to add that i have my essential phone since Dec. Never had any Bluetooth issues.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] khushg:
I've also got the same problem, can't connect to my PC, my pebble does connect but I have to "forget device", rescan and repair it everytime I connect. It's very temperamental with my Bluetooth headset too
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] The_Automator:
with the beta versions of the os under developer options you now see options for different bluetooth codecs including aptx. I believe it is still a grey area if essential has acquired the rights to include the aptx codec but if you are rooted you can sideload the aptx directly. See here for more info on aptx https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2531440

Hope it helps you out.

Personally ive experienced no bluetooth issues using stenheiser hd-1 in ear headphones, bluetooth stereos and car adapters.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] bbohica:
I'm having the same issue with my Essential phone and all bluetooth audio playback devices. If the phone is more than a foot away, it gets choppy. I don't have a workaround yet but will try some of the suggestions here.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] dhorgas:
The Bluetooth connectivity is not that great. I don't quite have the exact problem you describe, but range is pretty poor. For example, my Gear S3 Classic is about 6-7 meters away from me right now and I cannot connect to it via Bluetooth. I have to be closer. My Samsung S8+ (after some post-launch patches of course) could maintain the connection to about 10 meters away. My S7 easily did 15 meter radius. This is all comparison in the same physical space.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] ToddEDM:
my BT stutters about once every 45 seconds or so, also in my 2011 Mazda 3, the names of the songs do not display up on the screen where they had with every other phone i have had paired.

BTW if you are thinking of buying a 2009-13 Mazda3 there is a 5 second BT audio delay while watching Youtube/ videos ... and it gets really annoying
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] rignfool:
Latency like that is perceptible on almost all phones and receivers... Your car is not special in that way...

Wanna see some really bad latency... Try playing a game on an emulator while using a Chromecast to your TV...
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] bbohica:
Here is a perfect example of how bad it is. I did a little test with my bluetooth speaker(it's nothing special, just an average bluetooth speaker, a few years old so not the latest bluetooth tech.)

I set the phone on the kitchen counter, connected and playing music on my speaker which is right next to it. I pick up the speaker and hold it to my chest, while I'm leaning against the counter, then turn around so my body is between the phone and speaker, it quits working. I spin back around, it works... As a comparison, i dug the old S6 out of a drawer, and it can play on the speaker with me holding the speaker the same way, spin around, and walk to the other end of my kitchen which is about 16ft and it keeps playing the whole time.

Same issue with bluetooth headphones, which led me to this awful issue. I'm a cyclist, and with the phone in my back pocket of my jersey, the headphones won't work.

Frustrated, today I unlocked and flashed back to the oldest stock software I could find... still doesn't work.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] BonkersTheClown:
Same issue here. Is there a fix for this?
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] wolfhelm:
The only device I get a solid connection with is my Jabra Elite 65t headset (which happens to be BT 5.0 like the phone is). My Samsung gear and both of my cars have horrible connections. I believe there is a memory leak in the bluetooth stack because It'll get worse and worse, then I can clear it up temporarily by turning off bluetooth for about 30 seconds to 1 minute then turning it on again... then it'll tend to last until I reconnect again later.
[Essential Phone Questions & Answers] tech_head:
If you are on 8.1 you can go into developer area and there are settings for BT connection type. You may be able.to get better results by changing from the default which is best effort to one that prioritizes connection quality. There are other settings as well. I haven't played with the settings because I'm not seeing issues.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] BigPimpin:
I ordered my white Pixel 2 XL on Nov 14th and recently Google started the holiday promotion when you buy a Pixel 2 you can get a Home Mini and $100 store credit for free. I saw on a couple sites where people that had ordered their phone before the promo were able to call and get the promo deal applied to their order. I emailed Google to ask if I could get the promo and after 3 or 4 days they never answered, so I was going to call them today and ask. Just before I called I got an email saying my phone has shipped. I called anyway and asked if I could get it. They said they could not apply it to my order since it was done before the promo, but they said I could refuse the delivery and then reorder the phone and get the promo. I asked if there was a way to go online and cancel my order now so I could get the process going sooner, and they said no. Well looking at my order, there's a Return Item option and I'm wondering what and how that's intended to work. So if I wait for my phone to get here, say in 3 days, then refuse the delivery and wait another 3 days for the phone to get back to Google, I'm looking at another week before I can order the new phone. Then on top of that, add in the week or so for the new phone to get here. I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to cut down on some of the wait by cancelling the order via the Return Item method. What exactly is Return Item for? Is that for after you actually have the phone in hand? Would using the Return Item cancel the order, allowing me to order the new phone now? I used Google Finance option and there's not enough there to cover two phones while one is in transit back as a return, and I'm guessing I need to wait for the phone to get back to them before they zero out the financing on the original order.

You have to be able to be there for the delivery....because the deliverer will likely just leave it at the address and leave. Which will be likely an accepted delivery.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] BigPimpin:
Not sure if all phones get shipped by the same delivery company, but mine says OnTrac when I check the tracking. On the tracking page there's a "Contact Us Form" link in the paragraph above the tracking info. Clicking that link, the form has a "Reject an upcoming delivery" option. I filled that out, so hopefully it gives them a heads up and ensures the delivery rejection in case I'm not home. After filling out the form, the confirmation email says someone will look over the request and get back with me. Haven't heard back yet, but hope it works in rejecting the delivery.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] MrBrady:
Just an FYI I was in a similar situation. Received my phone on Cyber Monday. Called Google and they said is have to order a new one to get the promo, so did. New one arrives tomorrow. Sent the old one back the day it arrived and Google is saying it can take up to 14 days to process the return.

Only thing I can suggest is being able to float the price of both phones until the return is processed.

Hey guys,

I had a quick question that I couldn't find in the forums, or on Google in general for that matter. Is there a way to change the way time is input on our device? For example, when I'm choosing the time for a calendar event, this is what I see on my Honor 8 running the latest version of EMUI:

Is there a way to go back to this method of selecting the time?

Thanks!
[Honor 8 Questions & Answers] b1tt1:
I've been annoyed with the same thing for a while now, and googling shows we are not alone. It seems to be something Huawei has done (at least on Nougat), and I'm afraid there's very little we can do short of hoping for a fix in a future system update.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Accessories] Gyre8:
I've been searching on and off for weeks and I cannot find a correctly sized vertical belt case for the S8. I have actually bought three such cases, non of which (despite the product descriptions) fits the S8 correctly. In fact, all are far too big for the phone. I used to buy Suncases for my phones, but they don't do one for the S8 as far as I can see.

PDair do one but it's open-topped and I prefer a closable flap over the top of the phone. Also the PDair one has a belt clip and I find a belt loop much more secure (ask me how I know this!).

Can anyone recommend a well-fitting S8 vertical belt case to me please?

Cheers.

Hello,

I need advice, please. MOTO G2 (2014) XT1068

XT1068 unlocked>TWRP installed>TWRP Fix permissions clicked>now boot animation and goes into black screen (with backlight).

More detailed:

Last night I have unlocked my XT1068 and installed TWRP, no problem.

(following this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLSTDsFG1xw, citing https://xdaforums.com/moto-g-2014/development/recovery-twrp-2-8-0-1-moto-g-2014-t2896165).

First deviation was I got TWRP from http://www.devfiles.co/download/4lhHC4Uv/TWRP_2.8.0.1_Titan_v2.img as I ran into an unavoidable sign-up trap following the cited url).

Second deviation was I chose to install SU offered by the TWRP app via Gplay, which was unsuccessful.

So I decided to go back and follow the instruction, using the provided "Update SU" file but found my Windows Explorer but it didn't give me access to internal memory or SD card. After short research, I found that XT1068 "developer options>USB configuration" toggling MTP to Charging only and back MTP helped https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/3nnkaa/cant_access_android_device_internal_storage_from/ as the Windows Explorer was able to access the XT1068 memory. (SD card was setup as internal memory).

I copied the file over, rebooted into TWRP but couldn't see the file. I remember having seen something like "unable to mount or access memory" in TWRP and remembered from XDA thread that permissions might be messed up. It was late, I jumped to a conclusion when I found the TWRP option "Fix permissions". I clicked it and have since the issue.

I can get into the menu which offers "recovery" and also get into TWRP

I have tried "Factory reset" but I am not sure what happens there, Motorola boot animation comes and then the black screen again (with backlight)

I think I have options but feel like in a minefield and better ask for what to do next.

Thank you
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkdon123:
can you tell me you're bootloader version and on what android version you were when you messed up things? If your phone boots up to the bootloader i.e. the menu which allows you to enter recovery then you're having more than one options to fix this problem. But be careful this time. as this may brick your phone and it will be gone for good..

Read this XDA thread and do the steps carefully. This may restore your phone :)

Hi, I had the stock Marshmallow and bootloader is showing 48.86 (if that is actually the number). I was aiming to do a titanium backup and then probably try a custom ROM.

I will follow the steps in the link provided to get back to a known working state before trying a custom ROM but I really like to understand what went wrong and in what state the phone now is. I don't think my deviations where a bad choice but clicking "Fix permissions" obviously was. I like to learn from mistakes.

Thanks for helping me out.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karteileiche:
Ok, read the guide and am uncertain which firmware is the correct one for New Zealand (the thread is full of confusion about the versions). I am waiting for a reply there and asking here if I could from this point also try to flash a custom rom via TWRP? Or better back to a working condition before doing this? Thanks.
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pkdon123:
Umm.. About the firmware version of the stock ROM, you can search google for it. And as far as your question about trying a custom ROM, you can try whichever ROM you want (except Ubuntu Touch, it's installation methods are too confusing). Just download the ROM in .zip file and download "Google Apps (GApps)", I prefer open gapps and install the rom via TWRP.

Wipe out these paritions in TWRP > Wipe > Advanced Wipe:

Dalvik/ART cache

Cache

Data

System

Also before installing any custom ROM read the steps plus read user comments before flashing anything :)

P.S. make sure your TWRP is latest. For TITAN it is TWRP-3.2.0-0
[G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] karteileiche:
Yes, thanks.

I have flashed ROM's successfully before on Galaxy S3 and Tab 2 and used gapps via TWRP.

I have tried Google for the correct version but find myself turning in circles, most-likely my limited search term knowledge.

https://www.reddit.com/r/MotoG/comments/4bgg02/info_all_moto_g_codenames_models_variants/ shows "XT1068 : Latin America/EU/UK/Asia/Australia/Germany/Brazil/India, Dual SIM" and the listed ROMs named XT1068_TITAN_RET ...(BR for Brazil?) (LA for Latin America?) (DSDS for India?) (GB for UK?) (DE for Germany?) then what? Some are obvious others are what I have read through various comments, DSDS may even be for (EU/INDIAN/GLOBAL), I have not been able to find a really good page explaining this.

You did not answer my last question directly but given that you stated how to flash a ROM and what to wipe, I assume you mean that I could alternatively install a custom ROM at this stage. (Which is what I had planned originally).

Still, would be nice to know the correct firmware version and also why clicking "Fix permission" turned things into custard.

Thanks.

Yeah, I´ve seen in the post of [MENTION=2127726]karteileiche[/MENTION] that link: http://www.devfiles.co/download/4lhHC4Uv/TWRP_2.8.0.1_Titan_v2.img. That recovery is outdated and not from the original source. Maybe that´s the reason why things get messed up.

Downlad latest TWRP always from this site if you don´t need something unoffical for your device: https://dl.twrp.me/

For titan this would be: https://twrp.me/motorola/motorolamotog2014.html

About installation of custom roms: When you check any thread of custom roms you´ll find in the OP what to wipe and what to use.

And imho it would be better to first flash the actual recovery before flashing any custom rom.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] erich_vogt:
I have a Samsung I9250 which I've unlocked, rooted and loaded with Lineage. The Lineage version is 13.0-20171126-NIGHTLY-maguro. The recovery is TWRP and the root is through SuperSU FREE (CM) v2.79-SR3. The On/Off button doesn't usually work. If the phone is off then pressing On/Off has no effect. Occasionally it works for no reason I can see, it seems to be random, but for the most part it simply doesn't have any effect. If the phone is on then the same is true. Turning it off from the On/Off button is usually impossible. I get round this through Settings>Display & lights>Wake on plug. This means I can activate the phone by connecting it to a PC using its USB cable. This will activate the phone immediately if it is off. It doesn't help with turning it off and I am usually reduced to taking the battery out. The phone is effectively useless although it is clearly NOT bricked. When I can turn it on it works fine.

I don't know if this is a hardware or software problem. If it's a software problem I don't know if the fault is in Lineage or TWRP or SuperSU. I noticed that the problem existed before I installed SuperSU. Has anyone else come across this problem? I'm reluctant to bin the phone because I spent such a long time getting Lineage on to it, but, if I can't turn it on or off it's not really a phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ____Mdd:
[MENTION=8645207]erich_vogt[/MENTION] it's more a hardware problem, you can buy a new button (find link of online stores in accessories section or google.it).

for easyness you don't need to plug charge/usb everytime, you can set volume button waker, find in settings > button (don't remember where correctly, it will be somewhere there) then use volume switches to wake it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bamtan2:
There have been power button bugs, but only in the OS. If it's not turning on from off, then I think the switch is broken! A common failure in old phones, which is why "volume button to wake" is important, to reduce load on the power button.
