Bluetooth issues since 8.1 - Xiaomi Mi A1 Questions & Answers

Hi There, since July update I have serious bluetooth issues.
As also reported by other users when you want to share the internet connection (tethering) via bluetooth the bluetooth app crashs.
it es even reproducable.
So as I was not able anymore to tether and bring my car online (toyota touch and go) I tried to switch to Wifi Hotspot, which works fine.
however yesterday I recognized that when Wifi hotspot is activated audio streaming via bluetooth is interrupted every few seconds.
anybody else here with same experience?
any workarounds avaialble?
how can I create a bug report and submit to Xiaomi, is this even possible?
thanks
and brgds

Bluetooth issues since security update

Hello,
I have noticed that since the security update I am having issues with my bluetooth. It will not automatically reconnect to paired devices like my car and headphones. Sometimes it will connect but the option to transmit phone/media audio is unselectable. When this happens, it appears to be connected, but the music will come from the phone, not bluetooth connection. The only solution I have found is to reboot my phone. Is anyone else having trouble with this? Totally stock.

I have been having the exact same issue and the only fix has been a reboot.

You're not alone. Seems there is a workaround.
I'm experiencing the same issue with any BT audio device it won't stay connected to my Android Wear.
What version? I'm on 25.211.1 reflashed modem and Bluetooth package things are fine so far.

Strange issue with hotspot and bluetooth

I have this strange issue with my G4
It's my workphone and i use it in my van with hotspot-starter app.
i get in the car, turn on ignition and my phone connects to the inbuild handsfree system.
The hotspot-starter app toggles the hotspot so my tablet wich running navigation has internet for live traffic information......
This worked flawless with my previous phone but with my G4 the tablet won't stay connected to the phones hotspot, it keeps connecting and disconnecting every minute or so. But when i toggle bluetooth off and on again everything works fine and keeps working without any problem.
It seems like if the bluetooth connection is made before the hotspot is turned on, the hotspot fails to maintain a connection....

Interesting; haven't seen this. A possible workaround is to use Bluetooth tethering vs a WiFi hotspot to deliver internet connectivity to the tablet. Works great, connects faster and has a side benefit of consuming less juice on both ends. I use a similar config due to the crappy G4P GPS receiver.
Is it possible to use 2 bt connections simultaniously?
Handsfree set and tether to the tablet?

Give it a shot. It is certainly possible to establish multiple BT connections simultaneously. I occasionally use a BT keyboard, mouse and speaker with a cheap Amazon tablet. Doesn't miss a beat.
OK..... I got bluetooth connection made between phone and tab, checked bt tether on both devices otherwise it won't connect at all....... But no internet passtrough ?

Hum, sorry to hear that. Make sure WiFi is disabled on the tab. Have to believe the fault lies with the tablet as I'm able to successfully tether several different devices (individually) to my G4P via BT. Works a treat and cuts power drain on the G4P by half meaning I don't have to keep it on charge during longer trips.

Bluetooth handsfree not working

I can easily connect and play through my bluetooth handsfree but my net becomes extremely slow. Without the bluetooth device connected i`m getting 4mb/s and with device connected around 0.1mb/s. My laptop seems to be working fine with the BT device. I`m on oreo with latest security patch update. Any solution?

Bluetooth pairing issues

I'm having problems during the initial pairing of any BT device. The phone finds no BT devices at all. Turning BT off/on doesn't work. Toggling airplane mode fixes the issue for the time being and allows pairing. It's only slightly annoying since once the device is paired, it connects without a problem.
Is anyone else facing this issue? The update from this week didn't fix the issue. The phone is stock.

No issues at all. Pairs perfectly with galaxy 2 watch, car stereo, headset and home speaker system..

I don't have the same issue, but I can't seem to be able to pair the device with my car. It connects to both of my Bluetooth headphones just fine. The car name shows up in my Bluetooth devices list under pairing mode, but when I click it, nothing happens. Let me know if anyone else is having a similar problem.
I'm having the exact same issue with two 6Ts, one from T-Mobile and the other directly from OnePlus. Both are up to date with regards to firmware.
Its almost like the Bluetooth stack is crashing sometime after booting or cycling airplane mode because it works for a little while and then stops.
Same issue here.
Doesn't see some devices.
Constantly re-asks if I will share my contacts with my car.
My pixel 2 didn't have these issues with the same devices, so I know it's just the op6t.
Had this issue. Glad there was a work around. What a pain in the neck.
Same having BT issues where it loses the pairing and I have to repair device.
BT Connection Drop
I am having the same problem of connectivity dropping and then getting reconnected all of a sudden. Can anyone tell me how to fix this for now? Also, any planned upgrades in future for the same?
People, I need help. I can't pair my oneplus 6t with any Bluetooth device. Whenever I try to pair it says: couldn't pair with XXX because of incorrect PIN or passkey. I tried every possible solution I found on the internet (reset Bluetooth, reset phone, reset network settings, wipe cache, etc) and no luck. All Bluetooth devices are functional and I am able to connect them to my Samsung phone, but no luck with oneplus 6t. I am running oxygenOs 9.0.13 and none of my Bluetooth devices has the pin code. Please help, this is really frustrating ?

WIFI issue when connected to Bluetooth 5 device

Anyone else notice the wifi connection suffers (eg starts buffering when watching YouTube or Twitch) when the phone is connected to a Bluetooth 5 device (headphones)?
My phone does this, as soon as I switch from WiFi to mobile data it's fine. Or disconnect the Bluetooth device it's fine. Also if I use an older Bluetooth 4 device it's fine. I've got two Bluetooth 5 headsets and they cause the same issue.
Just wondering if other ppl experience the same?
