    Bluetooth Issues

    My Note 4 will not connect to my vehicle at all. Samsung claims it is a compatibility issue, because the newest BT software/technology is in the Note 4, and advised that I should call my dealer (Subaru) to see if they can update the software in my car. It would pair with my work vehicle (Ford)...

    Note 4 and your car, Compatible? Yes/No?

    I'm having problems pairing my Note 4 to my 2014 Subaru Forester. My Note 3 worked just fine, then I decided to try the S5. It was a PAIN to pair (had to go through the controls on the steering wheel only, not on the radio). It worked like a champ once I FINALLY got it paired that way. Then I...

    Bluetooth will not auto connect to car.

    I finally found on another post here how to fix this!! Completely reinitialize your car bluetooth system so it is back to factory settings. Then reconnect the phone to the car using the controls on the STEERING WHEEL only, not the radio controls. I'm not sure why this works, but it did for my...

    Verizon Galaxy S4: Bluetooth, paired, but not connected.

    Re: Bluetooth, paired, but not connected. Thank you so much!! I've struggled with this since I got my new G5 in May.... I can't wait to get off work and try it. I've called Samsung, Verizon and Subaru, and no one was able to point me in the right direction, until NOW!!!

    S3 Bluetooth Does NOT Auto Connect to Car

    I can't wait to try this with my G5 and my 2014 Forester!!! Hopefully it will be the fix I've been looking for since I got the phone. My Note 3 would autoconnect, but I have NEVER been able to get the G5 to do it....fingers crossed!!!

    Galaxy S5 - How to get bluetooth to auto connect every time I get in the car?

    I have the same problem as you. I don't believe it's as isolated as others are saying. I even had issues pairing with my car, but it is paired now. I have to manually connect to bluetooth every time I'm in the car, and most times it takes several tries to get it to connect manually. Very...

    Connecting Galaxy S5 to Certain Bluetooth Devices

    So, you still have to activate the "car mode", or does it do it automatically?

    Connecting Galaxy S5 to Certain Bluetooth Devices

    I saw where someone recommended downloading Bluetooth autoconnect from the play store, and all the reviews of the app report it fixed the syncing problem. I have it downloaded and am going to try it when I get off work. Thought I'd put it out here just in case

    S5 only Black & white?

    I'm with Verizon, and when I got mine, they only offered the black and white. I didn't ask if the other's were available.

    How many are waiting for the Galaxy S5 Lifeproof case to be released?

    hopefully not much longer. I'm on the list, but since the phone itself is supposedly water and dust resistant, I may not get it. My son has the new nuud one on his iPhone, and I joked that he can never take it off since he's a clutz.... I guess we'll have to just wait and see.

    Location Services not updating impacting Weather widget

    I believe from other threads I've seen that it's a glitch with the accuweather app. I use the weather channel as my primary weather app without any problems, but the app on the lock screen never seems to update. For now I've just turned it off

    My S5 wont connect to any of my Bluetooth devices!

    me too!! and once I get them paired, I still have to manually sync the phone to my car EVERY time I get in it. So very frustrating. With my Note 3 it was automatic

    Connecting Galaxy S5 to Certain Bluetooth Devices

    I'm able to pair my s5 to my vehicle (a 2014 Subaru), but the phone won't automatically connect when I get in the car. with my Note 3, it was instantanious-as soon as I started the car, a call would switch from the phone to the car. With the s5, I have to open the bluetooth settings every time I...

    Bluetooth music on car "skipping"?...now bluetooth phone calls cutting out

    Re: Bluetooth music on car "skipping"? Mine seems to be doing the same thing via bluetooth, regardless of what music program I'm running. I have a 2014 Subaru. Can't seem to find a fix.
