Bluetooth stuttering or choppy

[brava27]

Anyone experience choppy or stuttering bluetooth while listening to music? Please let me know.

Does that occur on both wi-fi and mobile data? Wi-fi and Bluetooth can sometimes interfere with each other.

I've experienced the stuttering while streaming music in 2 different cars. My phone also has stuttering connection with my moto 360. Bluetooth issues are the only problem I've had but can't figure out if it's hardware or software related.

Yeah me too. I wonder what causes it. Wifi is usually off.

Same here. Just started using Bluetooth in my car to listen to music.

I've got it too. Wasn't sure what it was - connecting to my Sena BT in my motorcycle helmet. My old Note 3 never gave me that problem. Just the occasional cut out.

I've had it once - it was the only time that I'd used it in power saving mode so I'd guess it was that as I use Bluetooth audio everyday and other than that one time, never had any issues.

My LG Tone Pros become disconnected all the time. Doesn't happen when paired with my G3.

I had the same issue on my HTC One M7. I recently switched my launcher to Yahoo Aviate, so I thought it may be that.

It wasn't! It was the last app I'd updated: Poynt.

Quite why the Poynt app would cause my Bluetooth to stutter, I have no idea.

I uninstalled Poynt completely, and my Bluetooth is back to normal.

Mine works fine. Regardless of what I am doing. I use a pair of LG Bluetooth headphones if that matters (Amazon.com: LG Electronics Tone Ultra (HBS-800) Bluetooth Stereo Headset - Retail Packaging - White: Cell Phones & Accessories).

I had a similar problem. when streaming music to my bluetooth ear-buds, it will cut off sometimes unless I disconnect android wear. This happens only when note 4 is not connected to my moto 360. When both connected, everything seems working properly.

I am having the same issue on my Galaxy s4. It worked fine regardless of wifi status. Pandora, rhapsody, iheart, etc. Now it will play for a couple minutes and will loose connection to my LG 730 headphones. It also won't stay connected to the car.

I was told this was probably an app that was updated and is interfering.

Any easy way to find which app was recently updated or may be causing this?

I am experiencing the same thing on my galaxy note 4. It's like it cuts out four times a second for about a sixteenth of a second. It happens on two of three Bluetooth speakers that I connect it to. Other people can connect to any of those speakers with their iPhone and it sounds great. But since I can connect to some Bluetooth speakers without problems I can't completely blame it on the Galaxy Note 4 either.

I've run into a similar issue with earbuds - occasional, very short dropouts. I found that if I left the screen on, this didn't happen at all. This was covered in another thread and others reported similar results.

Funny noticed that early on --like in the 1st week--and have seen it happen again in the months since.

Try adding this line to your build.prop: ro.bluetooth.request.master=true
This worked for me.

As I noted in the other thread on this issue, you need to be rooted to edit build.prop.
