As per s, post the Android 7.1.1 Nougat update, their devices are not able to connect to their in-car Bluetooth system, as pointed out in a report by GSMArena. Even if the connection is established in some cases, s are still not able to place or take calls hands-free, as per the report. One of the s has even tried updating the Bluetooth software on the car, only to find it made little difference.
Android Headlines points out in its report that the connectivity issue presents itself in various forms. In some cases, the devices form a connection for few seconds before disconnecting. In certain other cases, the device works in usual manner but disconnects after a call ends and has to be manually reconnected with the Bluetooth kit. Some s have reported that the connection is lost mid-way through the conversation.
Interestingly, the connection issue does not present itself when Google will take before it releases a patch to solve the issue, which is clearly frustrating to the s and has been present on the devices for months now.
