7 CommentsNone of these have worked. Google pixel phones are useless
I have a google cell phone pixel 7 pro. I have tried everything, even following the latest instructions on the web about this phone. Bluetooth works fine in pairing with devices. One device it has a major problem is Bluetooth to my HP laptop. settings work fine but when I connect with my pixel 7 I can see on the laptop connected but within 3 seconds it disconnects, cell drops. I have updated the cell phone but and turn off power still the same problem. Is anybody out there have a Bluetooth fix yet?
I have a Pixel 6 Pro and the bluetooth issue started with the first (or maybe second?) update following the installation of Android 13. The phone needs to connect to a BMW car (which it does, mostly) and a TomTom navigation device, which it does ONCE following a phone restart; so the phone had to be restarted each time… After leaving the car, I noticed the phone warming up and losing battery life because it was still connected to these devices and searching for them. I realise that it NEVER disconnects from a switched-off device. So, using edit, I put the Bluetooth on/off button in the quick menu and have to remember to switch off Bluetooth each time. Tedious – but it works and the devices re-connect each time. As above, this started following an update, so it should be fixable??
My issue: phone connect to car wireless andriod auto and bluetooth but i cant hear “call” audio and they cant hear me, however music playing from my phone without issue.
Issue started: for me 1/24/2023
Issue resolved: 2/20/2023 after factory reset the phone, which google support advised as other steps didnt help.
Issue occur agaon 4/1/2023 and i dont want to factory reset the phone because i have thing will not backup in the work profile, also its not ideal to factory reset the phone every 2 months, any solutions?
Habe die selben Probleme. Nächste Vertragsverlängerung wird es wieder ein anderes sein. Google Smartphones werden es mit Sicherheit nicht
Can’t turn Bluetooth on. Pixel 7 pro, so frustrating and Google customer service is not helpful.
How is this even on the market? What garbage.
