Bluetooth always discoverable - Honor View 10 Questions & Answers

Hello,
emui 8 bluetooth settings does not have switch to turn off bluetooth visibility.
You can only turn on bluetooth or turn off bluetooth.
When bluetooth turned on it's always discoverable.
How to turn off bluetooth visibility?

It's only discoverable when you are looking at the Bluetooth settings.
It's kind of like the refrigerator door. If you peek to see if the light is on, it will be.
Just try scanning for visible BT devices from another device. It won't show up unless you have the BT settings panel open.

It's supposed to be but apparently this is not happening.
I can say that in Vernee Mars Pro and in Redmi note 5 (miui 10) the Bluetooth is always discovered even when not inside the Bluetooth menu.
Now where is the problem in Android or Vernee and Xiaomi??

[Q] Samsung DA-E550

Hi XDA-Community,
you are my last Chance of Help. I recently got the Samsung DA-E550 Wireless Audi with a Docking Station and encountered a Problem. I wanted to use the Speaker for my Alarm in the Morning. The Problem is that the Station goes into Standby after 30min and cuts the Bluetooth Connection wich results in usage of the intern Speakers of my Phone instead of the DA-E550.
You know any way to keep the Station powered with a Bluetooth Signal or something else? It was the main Purpose why i got it and that it doesnt work kinda sucks....
Cheers

I ordered one and it is arriving tomorrow - I am also hoping to use it as an alarm clock (My galaxy note 2's alarm isn't quite loud enough - I am a deep sleeper)
I am hoping with tasker I can auto turn off then back on bluetooth 5 min. before wake up time and that will wake up the dock.
If that works I will let you know. (when your dock is on standyby if you turn your phones bluetooth off and back on does that wake up the dock? - if so you can use taker (see link below) to auto turn your bluetooth off and back on a couple min. before your alarm goes off - this is assuming that the dock will auto connect with the speaker upon bluetooth being turned on on your phone.)
As long as when the dock goes into standby it will wake up when a device tries to connect to it via bluetooth this should work.

Nope when it goes to sleep - it is dead to the world untill you hit the power button.
Best option is to go to sleep with a silent mp3 on loop I guess
Yea i tested a bit for myself but couldnt wake up the device but your alternative is a neat trick. Didnt thought of that.

Screen turns on when Bluetooth connection starts, edited with possible solution

So I had this same problem when I first got my Z1 Compact, but it went away after a while (I'm not entirely sure how). This creates a problem if I have my phone in my pocket, as it will skip tracks, fast forward and rewind, and waste battery. Is there a way to prevent the screen from waking when the device connects to a Bluetooth device?
EDIT: Found a solution! At least for me, hope it helps others as well. My bluetooth microphone no longer works, so I went into the Bluetooth settings for the stereo and unchecked the box to use the BT for phone audio, and only left media audio checked. This seems to have fixed this issue as well, as my screen no longer turns on automatically when it's connected! I re-checked the box and it turned on like before, so it seems like that's what's causing it to wake.

Have a look at the Smart Connect app, maybe it has an event there that triggers when the bluetooth connects.
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, there were no such events under any of the Smart Connect options, and I can't even find an option to turn the screen on/off when a device is connected or disconnected.
I've tried setting the screen timeout to 15 seconds (the lowest possible), and I noticed that once the screen turns on after connecting, it never times out or turns off on its own. It was sitting on my car's dash, and I listened to a few songs without it shutting off. I even checked the timeout settings afterwards, and it was still set to 15 seconds.
Any idea what else could be causing this? Maybe Throw? I know I was able to uninstall that on my Z1C using Titanium Backup, but obviously I can't on this one since it's the T-Mobile Z3.
EDIT: So this apparently only happens when connecting to my car stereo. I just tested it with my Bluetooth headphones and the screen stayed asleep the entire time I was connecting and playing music.
I still have no idea what could be causing this, but I'm starting to think it has something to do with my stereo and not my phone. Is there any app or way I can test it? So far, here's what I've tried. Again, on T-Mobile Z3 so no chance of rooting at the moment. Screen still turns on whenever my phone auto-connects to my car stereo's Bluetooth.
1. Disabled Throw using adb shell.
2. Disabled MirrorLink using adb shell.
3. Disabled Smart Connect using adb shell.
4. Auto-connected to Bluetooth headphones and screen stays off as it should.
5. Tried with multiple apps (Shuttle+, Walkman, PowerAmp, even with all music apps uninstalled/disabled).
6. Old phone's screen (Z1 Compact) still stays off when connecting to the car stereo. It's rooted with an unlocked bootloader, maybe something in the Z3's DRM keys is telling it to wake up?
So that's where I'm at right now, not sure where I can go from here. I suppose I'll have to learn to live with it for the time being.

Do you have :Smart backlight control in "Display Settings" on? In my case that was the problem! So when the screen wakes up and i'm on the move, this setting prevents the device from auto lock.
Same issue around here mate. I got a pioneer car stereo and I set the smart connect to play music as son it connects. Every time it connects the screen turns on and I got the connection message on status bar.
Smart backlight control was off, but I tried turning it on just in case. Screen still turns on. I don't even have Smart Connect enabled right now, and I don't get any connection message when it connects. I'm thinking it has something to do with Pioneer specifically, since mine's a Pioneer as well. It also doesn't turn on when it connects to my bluetooth headphones/headset, which should be the same type of connection.
I'll try messing with some settings on my stereo, see if that does anything.
I'll try on my friends Sony stereo later and see if the issue happens.
When I connect the lg g watch the screen remains off.

I have the same isue with my zenec car radio This sucks because I can't keep my phone in my pocket while I'm driving.
It would be interesting to know if this is a general android isue or if it's only a isue from sony smartphones with stock rom. Just to narrow down possible causes...
I also have this issue with my Kenwood deck. I also noticed my volume resets to half too, which is even more annoying than the screen turning on. I have no smart connect events or anything turned on. Odd thing about the volume, it doesn't do it all the time. It just seems to randomly.

It may be a security "feature", so that no-one/nothing can connect to your device without you seeing the screen light up.

I don't think so, because the phone is most of the time in the pocket so it wouldn't make sense to lighten up the screen to inform the user about a "BT event".
But hmm, maybe I'm able to solve it with tasker
BT connect on event -> turn screen off

Lighting up, by itself, would be harmless, even if your phone is usually in your pocket.
I was going to suggest tasker, but I never got anywhere with it (at least, the things I wanted to do, which don't appear to be too extravagent, apparently require either a rooted phone or additional non-free plug-ins).

As other member have already described, the screen keps turned on for a long period of time when a BT device connects. So it's battery waste and it's likely that I execute unwanted actions like calling someone
But thank you anyway... I'll try it with tasker and will share my solution here if I find one..
I have a Pioneer car stereo, but I haven't noticed my screen turning on. I'll test this when I get off work.
I did notice though that sometimes the BT volume goes to 50% as mentioned earlier.
My screen does not turn on when it connects to My pioneer car stereo.

I have Z2 and Uconnect stereo in my car and my screen turns on when connects to stereo.
Bumping the topic.. exact same problem. Screen lights up every time I connect via BT to my car Kenwood stereo. Very very irritating. Battery drains out without even my knowing it. Seems like a serious bug.

MIUI 12 bugs for F2 Pro

Let's talk about bug's on the stock MIUI 12 Rom for the Poco F2 Pro (not xiaomi.eu).
First of all app permissions are useless. I block apps like Gearbest to not run in backgroud = I get ads from Gearbest app every day in notification center. I put VPN on autostart, run in background, keep the connection in VPN settings and disable MIUI battery safer for that VPN app = it kills the app sometimes over the day and at night it kills the app instantly after I lock the screen, every time.
WiFi 6 is broken as well. Calls over VoWiFi are broken and sometimes the speed drops down for no reason. WiFi 4 n works perfectly.
Sometimes no icon in status bar, like VPN icon when it's connected, VoLTE I never saw (but it works) and even Google calander is shown the icon in status bar but nothing in notification center (2 times for now).
Haven't noticed any issues myself.
You use VPN and got WiFi6?
Device is awake all the time.
Same, causing overnight battery drain
I lose 1% per 1h at night.
Lose 3% in 8.5 hours (overnight); 0.35% per hour.
Battery stats doesn't work properly
- Dark mode is awful in apps like messenger, messages were white with white text or animations of someone typing were not fully transparent but just white I had to enable dark mode inside app and add app to ignore list for system one.
- Always on Display. I dont understand how schedule works, I set it to 7am-11pm but AOD shows up all the time.

Stand by is fine, drops a maximum of 2-3% for me. But once we start using, miui 12 have terrible battery optimization
for me seems like i get more battery drain, but havent checked yet, but comming from a day of downloading apps back on miui 11 and later update to miui 12 seems like my battery toke a hit..
I was thinking about making a separate "rant" thread about MIUI 12 on the F2 Pro, but since you're all here I might as well share my frustration.
Coming from years of both Samsung One UI and Stock android, I have one big and two small issues with MIUI 12.
Every other android vendor on the planet (probably) has 4 sound modes: Ring, Vibrate and Silent and DND. You would think that there is no need to change that, but Xiaomi apparently had a different opinion.
- Okay, ring works as expected, but the only time my phone is on Ring is when it's in the setup and I can't change it to Vibrate.
- There is no actual Vibrate, there is this Silent thing, which sets the Ring volume to 0 (so.. vibrate) and offers to mute all media sounds...
- Then there is DND which mutes all notifications, doesn't offer to mute media sounds (like Samsung does), restricts visual popups for notification but doesn't stop the screen from lighting up when you get a notification and the phone is locked like WHAT?! I'm out here trying to sleep and this huge 6.7" screen is lighting up like it's a flashlight?
EDIT: they fixed it ?
Speaking of flashlight, and I know this isn't a grand issue, if you're using the new Control Center, you can rearrange the quick tiles at the bottom, but not the 4 at the top. Why? I would love to be able to switch the Mobile Data and WiFi but no.
I love this phone and it's battery. Easily lasts 2 days. But whose idea was it that the battery stats will show only the last 24 hours instead of since last full charge, like everyone else? ?*
12.0.2.0 fix almost nothing.

Pretty much this. Checking using AccuBattery, the device only entered deep sleep for 5 min for the whole day. Thinking rooting the phone to force device enter doze.
12.0.2.0 and I can forget about audio over bluetooth... this is so disgusting, never seen such a bugged phone.
I'm using the POCO F2 Pro Global Version with the MIUI 12 and I have this issue with Twitter.
Push Notifications are enabled in the app, and when I received the number 9 Notification, the new coming Notification will erased the last one.
It limits to 9 Notifications only.
Any solution please?

That's odd I don't have issues with Bluetooth audio on qc35 and wf-1000xm3 and envaya mini haven't noticed any issues.
There are other bugs like video tools styles being blank etc crushed colours on lockscren probably others but I haven't noticed any Bluetooth issues
The update I presume was mainly a security update.

I had no problems, now I can forget to listen music over bluetooth. I try to connect the same TWS with my Mate 20X and no issues, connect again with Poco F2 Pro and same problems. Also reboot the device and pair it again.
Security update is about 80MB, not 400MB. They change also the VoWiFi logo but VoLTE still not fixed (don't show the icon).

What issues are you having with connecting or pairing or looking for headsets or dropped connections when streaming?
Also I've said it's mainly a security update given they've jumped a bit from the initial preparations of miui 12 also some apps got updated along the way.
Can't check VoLTE as my operator doesn't support it.

Workaround for Android Auto freezing on Oppo

Appears to be an issue with the Always on Display. Disabling that should resolve the issue.
See detail below;
Frozen screen - Android Auto Community
by the way feel free to spam their support email as this issue has been going on too long!
[email protected]
Solution : enable developer options, and enable keep screen on while charging.
yup screen on = no Always on display..
though also battery and burn in aint good...
Screen will remain on, but brightness will drop to minimum level as the phone is left idle. When looking at the phone while driving, it looks almost off, the home screen is barely visible.
would be great if someone could build a tasker or Automate task that turned off AOD when AA is running.. though you prob need Root..
Anyone having a issue after C62 update of it just now not connecting at all?
jipp here.
android auto refuses the connection after the update.
My head unit is trying to connect while oppo is asking which usb type should be choosen (load/ android auto/mtp or so)
Selecting android auto results in a connection abort and a short vibration.
Already cleared app data, cache and even reinstalled android auto with no effort.
wow oppo really sucks..

Hi guys,
I have a Find X2 Lite with CPH2005VF_11_C_78..
after the android 11 update android auto start to freeze switching apps (ex from maps to spotify a 15 seconds black sceen) or when navigating has to turn direction (the cursor start flickering and after a while the navigation resume).
Is this a similar problem to yours? any suggestion?
my oppo f1s always turn off even after restart, how to fix my boss?
Images on the lock screen, crash the Android Auto. It is an OS problem. Here is what to do, till the problem is solved :
-Go to Settings, Security, Smart Lock and and your car a trusted device. That way you have your phone unlocked while driving and fingerprint disappears.
(You can also remove fingerprint from lock screen by going to Settings, Passwords & Biometrics, Fingerprint, Screen-off unlock and select off, but then you have to wake up your phone before being able to use fingerprint)
-Go to Settings, ..Always-On Display, Always-On Display and disable it. (You can also select Always-On Display with battery saver, which turns off image after some seconds, but on those seconds, the Andriod Auto is crashed)
@[email protected]$#[email protected]& OnePlus, OPPO and Color OS...
Same thing at OnePlus 8T with OxygenOS 12 (which is ColorOS 12).
After update to 12 I still have some problems with AA. Now phone is totally unusable (totally laggy or black screen) when connected to AA and after when disconnected - must wait ca. 5 min or restart phone.
But... After reading this tread I turn off AOD. And stil same. Then I turn off also fingerprint reader at turned off display. And... Everything works perfectly
Will test AOD on, FP on and Smart Lock at my car. But OPPO is a joke...

Question Is it possible to turn off bluetooth?

Hello, I am interested in buying this watch and I wanted to know if it is possible to turn off the bluetooth of the Huawei Watch GT3, I did not find information that there is an option that says disconnect and another bluetooth section but I do not know if it is to connect headphones or if it is general bluetooth and can be turned off.
I know that bluetooth does not consume a lot of battery, but my idea of this is to turn off bluetooth to prevent it from emitting radiation, etc. I do not want it to be synchronized with the phone all the time, but to do it once a week to save the data of training and sleep.
There is no such possibility in GT Runner. There is no Flight mode. I found out when I already ordered the watch. Therefore, at the same time I bought a device for measuring the power flow density. The watch emits up to 4 uW/cm^2 for a few seconds (if nothing is transmitted/updated), but most of the time (I have disabled on my smartphone bluetooth and Health app messages) the device shows background values of 0.5 uW/cm^2 near the GT Runner. But I still really want Huawei to add a Flight mode in the firmware that physically disables Bluetooth.
Microwave oven near the door 12 uW/cm^2. Smartphone up to 30 uW/cm^2. Just walking on the city street 20-60 uW/cm^2! 0_о.
The norm is much lower than 10 uW/cm^2

I bought a BR-9a on Aliexpress for $28, there are more advanced devices: TM-195, TM-196 Tenmars, TES-92, TES-593 and others
So there is no possibility to switch bluetooth off in the watch.
