How to fix bluetooth issues with Samsung Galaxy S8

Post by turbogrill »

Hi,

I had some issues connecting my S8 to RCP. To fix it I had to:

1. Open the Application settings
2. Select show system apps
3. Stop bluetooth
4. Disable/Enable bluetooth.


Galaxy S8 bluetooth seems to suffer from a bad bluetooth implementation, there are post of all kinds of issues with the S8.

iPhones had a similar bluetooth problem with a similar work around a while back after an OS update.

Yes, this can happen with poor bluteooth implementations. It was quite frustrating to deal with it and resulted in a small mountain of tablets for testing.

Worth mentioning, iOS's Bluetooth is not compatible with the Bluetooth used in RaceCapture/Pro.
