  • Request for feedback on Bluetooth compatibility regressions with Android 14 QPR3

We need feedback on Bluetooth compatibility regressions with the 2024061300 release along with feedback from people who have no new issues to help us rule out if there are issues with certain devices. We need to know if anyone is experiencing an inability to use or pair devices they were previously able to use before 2024061200/2024061300 which are the first ones based on Android 14 QPR3 released on June 11th.

Please include your device model and the model name of each Bluetooth accessory you're providing feedback about. We need feedback whether or not people are having any new issues. Please make sure to confirm if you were previously using the device. We don't need to know if an old Bluetooth device already incompatible with current Android still isn't working, only if there were regressions.

If you experience any compatibility issues, please try disabling developer options to reset the Bluetooth developer options back to the default settings. So far, all users reporting issues have found this resolves them.

    Pixel 6 Oriole 2024061300
    No regressions found so far.
    Devices tested so far (will edit as I go):
    Garmin Forerunner 735XT still works as previously

      Pixel 6 build 2024061300
      No issues connecting to my victron system .
      I will check other devices .

      P8 on 2024061300
      No issues noted. Tested with various devices, primarily audio: UE Megaboom bluetooth speaker, Sennheiser CX plus true wireless headphones, Ultrasone Isar headphones, Mercedes audio system, Smart media system, Notebook HP Spectre x360 used for data transfer. All worked well.

      Pixel 7 on 2024061300
      Tested audio playback and pairing with:

      • Sony WF-1000XM5

      Was already paired before update (updated from 2024060500), audio playback works fine.
      After forgetting, if the earbuds are set to LE Audio priority in their app's settings (which is a beta feature), pairing with it no longer works in secondary user profiles. Pairing when LE Audio priority is set in their app still works in Owner and the earbuds can be connected to and used in secondary profiles afterwards.
      Pairing with the Classic Audio only mode set (the default) still works in all profiles.
      The LE Audio experimental toggle is no longer visible in the earbuds' entry in the system Bluetooth settings.

      BHydden i seem unable to edit for some reason. Also the 3rd party hands free device in my car of unknown make or model works as it did before without issue.

        BHydden Edits are limited to 10 minutes. We'd like to increase it to 30 minutes or 1 hour but can't currently do it due to lack of that functionality. Indefinite editing leads to major abuse including for spam.

        Pixel 8a on 2024061300

        I have not had any Bluetooth issues. I was already paired to Shokz Openrun and Shokz Opencomm headsets, Garmin Instinct smart watch, and 2013 Toyota. My phone connects no problem to these devices, streams audio, handles calls, and receive notifications just fine.

        Pixel 8a on 2024061300
        Previous connection to Fiio BTR15 reestablished and used without issue.

        My apologies for the late response, I live in Europe, it was night.

        P8p 14.06.24 after disabling dev option and resetting Bluetooth settings finally managed to work but still not detecting all device's

          pit2p Which devices in particular are not working?

          It seems a lot of people using specific developer options are having trouble with Bluetooth on QPR3, due to the settings being used breaking on QPR3 upstream. We don't recommend using developer options for exactly this reason, among others.

            Pixel 8, 2024060500 -> 2024061400

            iFi Audio xDSD headphone DAC, and Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones both connected and playing audio fine. 👍

            The "Done" button on the Bluetooth quick tile pop-up is square, vs other buttons which are rounded though, minor inconsistency.

              upstage4186 The "Done" button on the Bluetooth quick tile pop-up is square, vs other buttons which are rounded though, minor inconsistency.

              Known upstream issue/feature. Also square in stock PixelOS.

              No issues with Jabra Elite Active 75t
              2024061400

              matchboxbananasynergy not sure actually now, after rebooting seems its started working correctly 🤦‍♂️

              P8 on 2024061300 works fine with Airpods and Wahoo.

              The only issues reported so far have all been resolved by users disabling developer options. They were likely all caused by having Bluetooth development settings enabled which no longer work on Android 14 QPR3. If you experience any issues, please try disabling developer options.
