Bluetooth problems with Nougat (Android 7) ? (Find a way to solve)

Ekto63

Hello Girls and Guys

I recently bought a Smartwath (Samsung Gear S3) and i got many problems with the Bluetooth connexion on my UMI Super ...
The phone and watch don't stop to disconnect each other ... So i was really annoying
I find a way to make bluetooth working once and for all !!!

Go to : Parameters -> Location -> hit the 3 littles dots (Or the menu button) -> Search
Disable "Bluetooth Search" and that's all (you can also disable Wifi Search if you want, as i did).

This little trick works for me, i hope this will work for you too

Excpect this working too for another phones with android 7 and other bluetooth devices (Car's bluethooth hands free for example)

Have a good day !!!

It's Settings -> Location -> "three dots" -> Search

Many thanks Ekto63, this helped get my Umi Plus to reconnect to my bluetooth headset (a factory reset didn't do the trick). I did have to be patient with it though...after a number of pairing attempts, I'd just about given up and gone to make a cup of tea (whilst muttering 'buy cheap...' to myself), then when I got back to my desk it was all paired up...go figure? I guess the trick is to avoid any eye-contact with the device whilst following the instructions above, who knows? - ho hum, but I'll take it as a win
