A3 2016 Missing Easy Mute option - Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hi!
I have one doubt: on my A3 2016 user manual for Marshmallow (the version installed) it clearly states that on Settings - Advanced Functions there should be an Easy Mute optinon, the one that allows us to flip the phone to mute. Anyone knows how come is this possible?

I have also been looking for this. In the store model it did work. On my phone it does not. I dicussed it with suport they said they thought it was due to a update and not fixable which i think is unfair since the manual says it can. Plus in the store it did and a reason why i bought it

Galaxy S8 and Android Wear 2.0... unable to send Google Account

Hi, I want to share with you a problem that I detected with the Galaxy S8 and the Huawei Watch 2.
During the configuration of Android Wear, is impossible to send Google Account from the S8 to the clock. I tried all ways, also delete the account and configure it later from the Android Wear prompt, but did not work and the clock don't receive the account.
The phone remains searching but never permit to select an account to send.
The clock works with other phones, so I think is a software bug in the S8 firmware, but if you know any solution I will thank you very much!!
Do anyone have the same problem?
Hi, same problem on my new Galaxy S8 and my old, but always very good, LG G Watch R !
My previus phone was a Galaxy S7, and I never had problems on Android Wear.
Now, on my S8, when I start Android Wear, he never display my watch, to select them (on connect screen) !
I can connect both trought Bluetooth, but with or without Blutooth connected Android Wear don't see my LG G Watch R
I tried restart phone and Watch, but without succes !
Does anyone have a solution ?
Same problem here with Huawei Watch (first one). Made a thread last week but no replies.
Annoying bug.

Same issue with Android Wear and my Samsung S8+. I can pair my Fossil Q Marshal I Understand that Samsung makes watches but we as consumers should be able to pair non Samsung watches. Im going to send Samsung Tech Supoort an email. That is why Im Android and not Apple
Got 2.0 on my 2nd gen Moto 360 yesterday. Same issue.
Hi, I've been looking for a solution for this issue , and finally got it working again. You need te clean data from google app, google play services and android wear, then eliminate your google account from your phone, factory reset watch, and then when you are trying to pair it, it would ask for a google account, input your account and it will be working, hope it helps .
Just switched from Galaxy S7 to S9 and run into the issue with my LG Watch Urbane. Unfortunately cleaning data and removing the Google account temporarily didn't fix the issue for me. Annoying that a phone upgrade rendered the Smartwatch unusable. I have no real idea what to do now.

Bluetooth headphones - turn on the ringing into bandwidth.

Someone has managed to activate - built this feature on Oreo LG G6.
Bluetooth headphones - turn on the ringing into bandwidth.
Allow ringtones to be played through bluetooth headphones.
I include it as a developer option, but it does not work.
Android Oreo 8.0 EU LG-H870 20A STOCK ROM.
This option is very necessary for my work.
Any luck?
Any chance of having someone look into this?
Fairly common issue for LG users. I also need this function for work. As much as I dislike iPhone I may be returning to one if Android is going to make us a wait another 5 years for this to work.

Bluetooth differences?

Hello,
I want to help a friend with continuous glucose monitoring. His pomp hardware has bluetooth and it is possible to connect it to phone. But only a few phones are compatible - Iphones and a few models of Samsung. When you don't have a compatible phone application displays error.
So, I edited build.prop and application works but I can't find CGM device. I wonder why. What is a difference in bluetooth module in samsung and one plus 5? Or maybe do you know other reason why OP5 can't find this device?
BTW, here is an app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...l&rdid=com.medtronic.diabetes.guardianconnect

Bluetooth audio on newest August update

Hello there,
some of you probably know Android has a problem with Bluetooth audio quality when there is another device for example a watch or other wearables connected.
The s8 was one of few phones which solved that problem for me, because enabling the dual audio function would allow higher bitrates on sbc. However after the last update which included the security patch from August the problem reoccurred.
Is there any place where I can trustfully download the old version of firmware eg the July update? I would like to try if that really caused the problem because the changelogs are not giving it away. I have been searching endlessly and I have come to the point where I would actually pay for it...
Greetings
Daniel

you cant download that portion of the firmware that im aware of as it has to do with the bluetooth stack overflow which goes into far more than just the audio eq portion of the software. Have you gone into developer options to look at the options there?

Im talking about the firmware from the July 2019 update. I wasnt planning on changing only the BT stack.
Yes I have been in the Developer options, but changing stuff there doesnt change anything. There have been topics on this on reddit and also a youtube video which shows the difference betweeen dual audio on and off...
obviously they changed something in the august 2019 update without noting it in the changelog.
The thing is: it seems its pratically impossible to download official firmware from samsung other than the newest one. its so frustrating, but i dont wanna give my credit card to these shady websites, they dont even accept paypal...

you can only notice the difference when using bluetooth audio with for example a fitness tracker connected at the same time.

Android 9 Screen : Bluetooth and Android system locked !

Hello,
I need some help for my android screen I bought about one month ago, I'm fighting with it to make Bluetooth and sound working...
Can somebody tell me how to activate Bluetooth as it shows not activated even after many factory reset...
And if possible how to change the firmware because not only Bluetooth but all android system seems to be locked...
Below some photos..
By the way, I have also an issue with USB AUX sound : there is 2 seconds of lag and I don't know how to make it works normally.
Thanks for the help

If you bought this new I think the best thing you can do is contact the seller and ask them to replace or refund your money.
I don't think your problem will go away if you have reset it many times already.
If you flash it with a different rom it will invalidate your warranty.

Thanks for your answer but it's from AliExpress, in China so impossible to deal with the seller. I don't think he will refund me or send me new one but I'm trying to open a dispute and I'll see.
But I think I will keep the screen and I really need to change the firmware. If someone just can tell me if it's possible...
As expected, AliExpress asked me to return the screen to the seller with my money...
But I won't lose more money again...so can somebody tell me if it's possible to change the firmware or unlock Android system please ?
Thanks
The "not activated" message does appear when no phone is connected, its just wrong translated, it should say "not connected".
Bluetooth can not be enabled for all devices on this units, it`s only programmed for the default KswBT App.
You have a BMW Snapdragon 625 Headunit with rather old 2.4.5 Software version, i recommend you to check out the F30 Forums, where you will find the latest 3.8.0 Version which has also global Idrive support
