Inconsistent bluetooth - Atrix 4G General

Has anyone else noticed inconsistent bluetooth connections with their Atrix? I use Motorola S9-HD Bluetooth headphones when I bike ride and often the audio cuts in and out. But sometimes it works flawlessly. Has anyone else experienced something like this? Also does anyone have any suggestions to stop it from happening?

I have an Atrix with the same exact headset and experience the same disruptions

It is possible that your headset is not 100% compatible with Atrix.
I had this problem 3 years ago with my windows mobile phone. i purchased a logitech bluetooth headset which was not compatible with windows bluetooth drivers. I then purchased the Cardo S2 and it was flawless.

Having the same issues with Plantronics Voyager Pro+
I'm rooted with greyblur...

I don't use a headset/phones with bluetooth, but I do use bluetooth all day long at work for PhoneExplorer and I use it in the car with a BT equipped JVC head unit and never notice any issues. I do notice considerable crappyness when using the Car's hands free phone functions though.

Thanks for the input guys. Maybe it is just the headphones. I'm going to see if I can borrow a different set from a friend and try his to see if it continues to happen.

Exactly the same issues. Hit ir miss whether they will pair or not. Every time. Annoyingly inconsistent. Especially since they are both Motorola products.

I'm also having the same problems with a Blueant Q2.
It mainly starts skipping when I put my phone in my pocket while listening to music.
Anyone else have any feedback on this?

Have had the same issue with every phone and Bluetooth device I have ever had. Problem might be fixed with Bluetooth. 3.0

What is bluetooth 3.0? Is it part of the new update.

Well I was hoping for improvement with the update but no better. Oh well.

The only issue with Bluetooth that I have is that it does not auto connect to paired devices. In 2.2 it did that.
I am actually having a similar issue. After 2.3.4 the official OTA update, my phone will not pair or connect to my computer... Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Using jawbone era here... Pairing was fine, but I'm having reliability issues as well... It works fine about 75% of the time... But in one or two out of five calls it just doesn't connect, i have to restart the headset, restart the phone, then it works again... That is annoying.

Yes, I have the same problem. I use to pair with my car stereo player JVC AVX 33 and I use stock froyo (Brazil retail).
same here, wish it would connect to my car's bluetooth without me manually doing it every single time.
dell bt200 att4.5.91
work perfectly
Works with Sennheiser MM400s but definitely flakier than 2.2 (and esp compared to Nexus).
Every ~3 hours or so it will just cut out for no reason and I have to turn BT off/on
Also the occasional 'crackle' happens more often
After the update Im looking to get a new pair of bluetooth headphones. I was using the Motorola S9-HD headphones on 2.2 and the works pretty well, although I had the occasional skip. Now they skip like freakin crazy. I can not have the phone in my pants pocket, jacket pocket or even in my hand or the audio skips and skips. Im kinda of looking at those Nokia BH503's but not sure if Im going to like the non-in ear type. I have to think about this.

Same here, won't autoconnect with my car's Bluetooth (bluelogic) did it fine on froyo. I've searched all over the internet and couldn't find a fix. It serms that other drvices with GB (htc, lg) are affected also, so it's not an Atrix only issue. I guess only Google can fix it.

I assume that replacing the gb bluetooth libs with those of the 2.2 is gonna mess things up?

Bluetooth Issue

Yesterday I bought a used Galaxy Note from a guy on Craigslist. Everything works great except Bluetooth. I usually pair my phone with 3 different devices. Rocketfish headphones, Creative D200 speaker, and a Belkin bluetooth receiver connected to my home theater. All of my previous and other current devices have no problems streaming to these devices. my new Note pairs with each of these devices and connects, then starts streaming, then no music or sounds can be heard after a few seconds. It still shows connected. I have tried everything unpairing, repairing, rebooting. i even upgraded to ICS and get the same problem except after it streams for a few secs it disconnects now and shows paired and will not connect again until I reboot. Has anyone else had problems like this? By the way im tring to stream Iheartradio using a wifi connection. Any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated
Thanks.

After further testing I have had limited success streaming music that is stored on my phone to the bluetooth devices. they stream for at least 45 minutes. Its just when I try to stream Iheart, tunein,winamp shoutcast,ect through wifi or 4G I have this problem. this is strange. I wish I could find some other people that claim they stream online media to bluetooth.
@OP
any chance using or flashing a custom kernel would do the trick on your current issue?
Whatever you do never factory reset or data wipe on stock ICS.

Either you are in the wrong forum, or no. The ATT Note is a completely different device.

Yes I do believe i am in the wrong forum. I should have posted in the AT&T version of the Galaxy Note forum. One last question. Do any of you stream online media through your galaxy note to bluetooth devices?

Music over Bluetooth

I'm trying to listen to music over Bluetooth on my Jawbone era headset and everything seems like someone is playing the music faster than normal. Any ideas what is causing it?

I don't know what causes it but I simply disconnect my Bluetooth headset and reconnect. I do it as much time as possible until it doesn't happen again. It doesn't happen very often so that's good. Also you can try to unregister it from the phone and re-register the headset again. Maybe its a Bluetooth bug or something. It happens on my iPhone 4 as well.

Got it fixed. I think it was a kernel issue or something I added to the Rom.

Bluetooth Music Streaming

Does the S4 display song info when streaming to car stereos and such? mp3s and Pandora? Is this an Android limitation if not?
It did for me with pandora,stock,play music.....it was one of those three. I dont remember.

It didn't work with my Note 2, but I was streaming some from Play Music and the artist/title came through. Pretty exciting since my wife would always brag about her iPhone doing it.

Yes it does in google play music just fine.
Not in my impreza... the bluetooth on this phone has been flaky for me though...maybe I have a bad antenna or something

Subaru is a pita with Bluetooth pairing. Try deleting your old sync over voice and then add it back over voice only. Doing it through the head unit control it gets messed.

Actually, that helped. It still doesn't connect automatically (Not sure why...) but it now reliably connects every time i force it to, which is better then before. I'm hoping that someday an aosp bluetooth stack will show up and solve all my problems, but i'm not really holding my breath.
