    HelloFor the last couple of days my bluetooth headset stopped working properly.Until now it was always detected as "Hands Free AG Audio" and a stereo version.I don't use the microphone, so I always took the stereo one for the way better sound.Now however only the hands free is detected.I tried to update my drivers and found some people telling me to go into the realtek audio console, which I actually don't have.I tried installing it from the microsoft store, which didn't work. It says they are having problems.Here the link to the advice: RedditDownloading it from the Realtek Site is currently

    Lumia 950 Bluetooth problems with Anniversary Update

    Hi,

    Let's go ahead and fix it. We would suggest performing a soft reset if some apps or features aren't working as it should. No need to back up your files as this would do just the same as taking out the battery from your phone. To know more what a soft reset
    can do, click
    here.


    If soft reset didn't rectify the issue, check these steps:

    • Delete the pairing between your Bluetooth device and phone, then pair again. Deleting the pairing and pairing again can sometimes help solve the problem. To delete your phone's pairing with the device, go to Settings , then select Devices
      > Bluetooth > press and hold the Bluetooth device > Delete. Make sure you also delete the pairing information on the hands-free system in your car. (See the documentation that came with your car or the device to learn how to do this.) After that, pair your
      phone with the Bluetooth device again.
    • Delete the list or lists of paired devices. If your problem continues, we recommend deleting the list of paired devices on your car’s hands-free system, and then starting over. Some car systems have multiples lists of paired devices, such
      as one list for hands-free calls and another one for playing music or other audio. Whether it’s one list or multiple ones, we recommend deleting the list or lists from the hands-free system in your car.
    • Check the documentation for your car's Bluetooth hands-free system. See the documentation that came with your car or with the Bluetooth hands-free system in it. Some cars require additional setup steps.
    • Start the pairing process from the hands-free system in your car. Most of the time, it’s best to start the pairing process from the hands-free system in your car, and then follow the instructions from there. If you start pairing from your
      phone and the car’s hands-free system at the same time, it can cause synchronization problems.
    Let us know how it works so we can further assist you.

    Regards.

    Bluetooth Problems, Only Hands-Free possible

    Bluetooth Headset - Windows 10 - appearing as Bluetooth hands-free

    I recently bough the following product from Amazon:
    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B019ZEHA36/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Essentially it works in terms of connecting etc and bonding via Bluetooth.

    The issue lies with windows picking this up as a Bluetooth hands-free device, see icon below.
    Hands-free ICON

    This I think is part of the problem, furthermore, under sound control there is the following options, Stereo and Hands-free.
    Playback devices

    Please for the time being ignore that the headset is disconnected.

    Under recording devices its the following: Recording devices

    Putting all of this together I have the following options:

    • use the Handsfree option but suffer with low quality sound through headset (channel 1)
    • Use the Stereo as default - which means good quality sound (channel 2) - but also means that the device no longer has any Mic associated with it.

    Furthermore, searching across the web, it was noted to disable hands free "under services, under device manager". However this just means that it defaults to the Stereo every time and the hands free (which includes a Mic) does not work.

    I have also connected a USB blutooth device (running V10) as supposed to the internal, but still not luck. I have re-installed the device multiple times with reboots and removing it from devices.

    Please can someone help here with any suggestion, I am very close to just returning this item as its not working properly...
