Bluetooth not connecting

[L0N35T4R]

When I turn Bluetooth on it doesn't automatically connect to my Bluetooth device that's on and ready to go. I have to go into BT settings and force it to connect

Is there a setting that does this for me? Why won't it connect?

Hmmm not sure why this is happening. Try maybe forgetting the connection and turn reconnecting?

I have three devices and they all do this. Sounds like it's not behaving properly...

Yeah there's definitely something wrong with your Bluetooth!

Definitely odd. My G4 connects to two devices automatically including my car

It's funny that you mention that. I've factory reset my phone 3 times and it only works with my 360 for a few minutes and stops pushing notifications.

That stinks. So you've reset and it's still a problem? What carrier model? I'm on T-Mobile

I'm with Verizon. About to set it up for the 5th time and see if it works..I don't feel like I should take it in since they don't have a whole lot of stock to begin with and what if next one has camera issues? lol...this camera is nuts!

Maybe call them and get one shipped to you? Who says you have to go to the store?

I think they ship a refurbished unit if I talk to Verizon but not sure how that works. I bought mine from Best Buy on 4th so I'm well within 14 day trial period and might be able to return and get a brand new one.

I doubt refurbs are available yet, expect a new unit. But safer to walk into best buy to exchange

That is what I was thinking too but walking in might be easier.

6th factory reset. Moto 360 worked for first 5 text messages and now again stopped working. Texts are coming on phone but not being pushed to the watch. Watch worked perfectly fine with S6.

So far, every time I turn off bluetooth and turn it on, it starts working for a little bit...will keep you posted. Maybe it goes to sleep or something to save battery?

Have tried connecting with any other devices? Tried resetting your watch?

Every time you reset your phone, you have to reset the watch...joys of Android Wear. I had to turn the bluetooth on and off once and it's been working since then..I'll keep an eye on it for sure. How is yours doing?

Just tried this in the car on the way home. I'm getting the same results where Bluetooth will not automatically connect. I have to go into the settings and force connect my bluetooth device for it to work. Very annoying!

Can you try just turning off bluetooth and turning it on on the phone and see if it works?

My bluetooth doesn't act like that...my wifi did for the first night, I turn it off when I leave the house and turn it back on when I get back home, and it wanted me to go back into the wifi settings each time. But after rebooting, it's not doing that anymore. It just connects when I turn wifi on, like it should. Again, bluetooth never did this for me. Hmm.. I'm stock AT&T for what it's worth, and we did just get an update today.
