IOS 6 bluetooth issues - micro cuts on music

After upgrade the iphone 4S with IOS 6, there are micro cuts on bluetooth trasmitted music, every 1 or 2 minutes.

The music receiver is a belkin.

Have also to report a worsening in music quality after upgrade.

Hope in a faster solution.

No hardware or sofware setup are possible.

So the only way is a IOS upgrade.

This is because a low number of users use the bluetooth to listen to music, and most are using headphones while running or moving. Perceive these interruptions such as connection problems due to movement or interference. With a HiFi system is much more annoying. It is painful to have to change your phone for a software problem, so many users do not request the change and the problem is not recorded by apple.

Don't expect any fix from Apple for this because this isn't an Apple problem. Some Bluetooth 2 drivers have a problem functioning properly with Bluetooth 4 although they should (the 4 spec is backward compatible). For example, some devices from Dr Dre have this problem. Dr Dre is aware of this and has a firmware update which solves the problem. Unfortunately, you have to send your Dr Dre device back to them to get the new firmware installed.


I'm using the Jambox Bluetooth speaker from Jawbone. This device has no problem with Bluetooth 4 on either my iPhone 5 on iOS 6.0.2 or my iPad 4 on iOS 6.0.1.
