I've been having intermittent issues with the bluetooth on my phone for 5-6 months now, and I'm not entirely sure if they're all related or just coincidental bugs.
With my Up24, I frequently get a message from the app that it had trouble connecting to my wristband. The usual fix is to do a soft-reset on my phone (Which takes 1-2 minutes it seems like), but sometimes using the built in app manager to kill the UP app and re-load it works.
I also have a bluetooth stereo in my car that I play Spotify through from my phone. 80% of the time, I get into the car, and my phone connects to the stereo as soon as it comes on. Sometimes, however, the radio displays a message saying my phone is connected, but my phone does not show that it is connected to anything. If I try to connect through the bluetooth menu in the phone, it will hang at "connecting" for a minute or so, and then go back to showing the paired devices menu. Disabling/re-enabling bluetooth on the phone fixed the issue once, but has never worked since. The only solution is soft-resetting the phone AND the car stereo.
This is the stereo I have: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Car/CD-Receivers/DEH-X6500BT
Are these issues potentially related? Does anyone have experience with a similar problem?
I have Sprint if it matters. I want to upgrade to the S5 but I can't justify the cost at the moment, even with my upgrade discount.
