Xperia 1 iii Bluetooth Connectivity Issues w/ Galaxy Watch 6
Expected Behavior
Bluetooth connectivity should re-establish after a paired Galaxy Watch 6 has been disconnected.
Current Behavior
Galaxy Watch 6 can be paired to the phone but the first time the watch loses bluetooth connectivity for any reason it will not reconnect unless the watch is fully factory reset and the pairing process is started AFTER the phone has been rebooted.
Things which do not correct connectivity individually:
- Toggling bluetooth on the phone
- Toggling bluetooth on the watch
- Rebooting the phone
- Rebooting the watch
- Removing bluetooth pairing from phone and attempting to re-pair the watch w/ Galaxy Wearable app (re-pairing fails with "unknown error")
- Factory resetting the watch and attempting pairing without rebooting the phone
Issue began with the April 16, 2024 update
A logcat.txt is attached with an attempted manual connect near the very end of the log
Edit: Above correcting grammar in a couple of places. Additionally since my thread has been locked and I have no further way to provide discussion: I can hope that the bluetooth change is reverted as @thanasistrisp pointed out this will affect all Android 14 devices
