Dennis, Mark BT problem ?
Hey guys or anyone else that might have an idea. About a year and a half ago I purchased the NEX8000. Or around that time. Anyway's I use and old iphone and a S5 for streaming. Now the Samsung has seen update but not the old iphone. Both have been working great until a couple weeks ago. Then no matter which one is used,there is a brief pause in the music randomly. Since it's 2 different ones I doubt it's the phones. An since the neither the BT on the HU or the iphone have been updated there should not all of a sudden be a problem. Any clues on what to check into. Thanks!!

This problem isn't specific to your setup. It happens in my daily driver Volt with an Android phone and the car I had before it w/the iPhone. Bluetooth sucks. Don't get a bluetooth mouse for your PC

too late
I'm gonna update the firmware to see if that stops it. The BT was perfect for over a year

I wouldn't touch any firmware unless a previous FW update caused this problem. Stick with what worked for over a year. It may take some time to figure out what that may be. Bluetooth is finicky.

I really didn't want ot upgrade the FW myself. I too believe in "If it ain't broke..." Since nothing has been added or changed in the least, I ruled that out before. So last night I shut the BT off on the phone ( on the I-phone which is the primary BT music source,been in the center console from day 1 of the stereo upgrade) and then restarted the BT on the phone. 1 1/4 hour ride home was more enjoyable with the BT working perfect again. I will do the Android next to see if it resolves it with that as well. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is the fix in my case
