iPhone 6 BlueTooth issues with iOS8

This is why creating new Apple IDs won't work:

Many of us use our Apple devices to maintain continuity between platforms that benefits us as we move through our days. Contacts, calendars, notes, etc, and now docs and the ability to answer a call from multiple devices.

ALL of this is contingent on ALL the devices sharing the SAME Apple ID.

Nes pas?

you Are right.. Just wanted to now if it works for anyone else or just me..

Update on my case -

Chatted with Apple Support. The first person I spoke to told me to try basic steps like turning Bluetooth on and off. She quickly escalated me to a Senior Advisor.

The Senior Advisor, after looking at this email thread and reviewing my case, said that my issue would be "escalated to engineering" and that I would need to talk to someone live to confirm details before the case was officially accepted.

I called in to Apple Support and talked to a Senior Advisor who told me that he filed an RTA: Request for Technical AssistanceHe said that an RTA usually takes 2 to 3 days to get a response, but that since call volume is higher than usual due to the iPhone 6, he will probably not get a status on my RTA for 5 days.

So that is where we stand. I'll let everyone know what I hear.

My advice: do what I did and make sure Apple knows about your issue and gets an RTA filed.

preger do we just call the support line to do this ??

i will call tomorro, it feels like a step backwards so disappointed with it, starting to wish I'd stayed with my 5s.

same issue as everyone else here.

mazda cx5 2014

iphone 4s

ios 8.0 broke it. ios 8.0.2 did not fix it.

i tried deleting all bluetooth devices on my phone and my car. signed out and back in to icloud. none of these things fixed it. i did not try deleting google maps (i do have it installed).

i refuse to delete all settings on my phone. i don't have time to restore it to working order any time soon and this is NOT AN ACCEPTABLE WORK AROUND PEOPLE. that's not a work around. that's a joke.

the best part of my issue that i didn't see anyone else mention is that after my phone pairs with the car after a (car) start my car thinks the phone is ringing. it says "incoming call press to answer" and does the built in car ring. pressing the ignore/hangup/whatever button in the car stops the ring but no stereo functions resume for about 20-30 seconds. awesome.

We all need more music and less talking to other people in our lives anyway, so i'm going to look at this as a blessing for now. turn off the phone and turn up the tunes.

its happening on the 5, 5s and 4s as well as the 6 as me and my friends have all got these phones so it's an all round problem.. Yes I agree that reinstalling isnt an acceptable solution. (I've tried it and it makes no difference).

Same exact problem all of you are reporting with my 2013 VW CC and iPhone 5. Worked for over a year until I updated to iOS8. 8.0.2 did not solve the problem. I can stream music but cannot use it for calls. Sometimes it randomly acts like the phone is ringing and telling me to answer it like the original user reported but it isn't actually ringing. So annoying. Apple has billions of dollars in cash, why don't they take $500 million of that and hire some more genius developers to fix/test the issues. I have been a loyal Apple user since 1986 but this is getting annoying.

Agree from first hand experience... Prior to iOS8.0.x iPhone 4s, 5 and 5s had no issues with bluetooth calls in BMW, Ford and Audi. After iOS8 and apparent fixes, all still are tanked and cannot make or receive calls through in car bluetooth. THIS issue alone in my opinion should have been enough to PREVENT THE RELEASE of iOS8. What a total balls up Apple. Well done Apple for releasing this defective Bluetooth code into iOS and for all the other issues too. Good work, take a holiday folks and celebrate your acheivements.

I installed developer preview 8.1 last night and it seems to have fixed my issue of the bluetooth phone audio not connecting to a 2015 Highlander with nav.

I'm having same issues - except mine is with 2014 Honda Pilot and 2014 Honda Accord! This is completely ridiculous how poorly this upgrade is working. Was there absolutely no UAT done?? I'm so frustrated - I miss Steve Jobs! I want the previous iOS back - Apple better fix this and quick.

I'm begging Apple to say something or acknowledge this issue. I've patiently waited for something and still nothing. This is my first time on this site to post something but I'm beyond frustrated. I've never had this problem and everything was fine with my iphone5 with the bluetooth in my BMW. Now that it no longer works and I've done every fix mentioned, I've actually gone back in time before Bluetooth was invented. I hate this phone and regret getting it. I thought this new phone was my answer since my iPhone 5 was part of the battery recall and I couldn't do anything without a charger since it would die quickly. This disaster has sucked the life out of what used to be the joy of getting the new iPhone! I've spent hours of my own valuable time trying every fix mentioned in hopes it would work but nothing.. Not to mention how slow the the phone is in general like the internet. My husbands iphone 5s is faster than this new iPhone 6. Nice!!! Overall just plain disgusted with Apple and their total failure with this latest launch. The iOS8 is horrible with all the changes and in my opinion just not good and no longer user friendly. Even my iPads are slower, Safari is just a nightmare to try and use now between being slow and crashing. I've always been a huge Apple supporter, our whole house uses Apple products, have had almost all their products and we have never experienced such a mess. Missing Steve Jobs!!!!!!

I agree with you. When I tested Yosemite Beta 3 I found residual bluetooth connections like iPhone 5s (2) and iPhone 5s (3) I submitted the matter as this failed the continuity (handoff option). Do you have handoff active on your iPhone? off so switch it off and turn bluetooth off and then back on. I swear the bluetooth failure is more about handoff than about bluetooth. Some have no problem and I am positive that handoff on is causing these problems. Handoff uses a combination of bluetooth and local wifi using the personal hotspot capability under the hood as to speak.

I have the same issue with my new Iphone 6 , its a VW BT system on Golf MK7 , BT connects but it is saying "NO NETWORK" , i can not make or receive calls , Apple also sent me to the Car Manufacturer , its ******** ! its clearly an IOS bug !.

I am able to fix it by deleting all connections from car and phone side and than soft reseting the phone but the problem returns after a day.

come on apple ! please release a patch !

No way ! its clearly an IOS issue , BT profiles are well known in the industry , if Iphone 5S works ok with IOS 8 Iphone 6 should behave exactly the same !!

I didn't want to wait on hold, so I went to support.apple.com and decided to use the chat with support option. After chatting with a representative, I eventually did have a phone call with them.
