The mobile’s Bluetooth turns itself off: How do I fix it?

One of the good things about our mobile is that it can be connected to a large number of devices through Bluetooth technology and increase its possibilities or those of the device you are using. It can be a smartwatch, keyboard, speaker or whatever you want. The usual thing is that the pairing is done in a very short time and in a simple way.

The mobile's Bluetooth turns itself off

Generally, it is enough to go to the Bluetooth options, activate it and search for visible devices that can be connected to the mobile. This is done without any problems and the connection remains in most cases. However it is not always so. If the Bluetooth connection of your mobile phone disconnects from the devices connected to it for no apparent reason, from one in particular, or the connection is frequently lost, before thinking that it is a serious problem, you should try some basic solutions.

This is what you should do if it happens to you

One of the keys to this wireless standard is that data is exchanged between devices within a radius of action that is usually close, depending on them. Therefore, the first thing you have to take into account is the range of the Bluetooth and how far away the device is. It may seem silly, but if it is further than the range it supports, the connection will not be established or it will drop frequently. If it’s on the edge, you can see it connect and disconnect when it finds or loses a signal.

There are several things you can do to try in case it does not work, such as turning Bluetooth off and on again if it does not work and restarting your mobile to see if it is a one-time failure that is solved with a simple restart, like a lot of problems that are usually given with the mobile on a day-to-day basis. Take the opportunity to restart the device you want to connect to. Then check if it’s OK when they both turn on.

Look at the Bluetooth settings and make sure everything is ok, and that you don’t have the device on the block list. It is also interesting that you delete the Bluetooth device on your mobile and resynchronize it in the Bluetooth settings to see if it is fixed, because it may be having a bad synchronization.

Also check if you have not installed a recent update that may be responsible for the crashes or an app that has compatibility problems or has a virus. In this case, uninstall recent apps that you don’t need, do a good cleaning of the phone and update again if there is a version that fixes it, or go back to the version before the one that caused errors.

Another thing you can do is reset the device you want to connect, because if you have connected it with more devices before, it may not pair with your phone because its memory is limited and it does not accept more devices. This is a failure that usually occurs especially when trying to connect it for the first time, but it is not usually the one that causes frequent disconnections. In any case, it doesn’t hurt to try it. You just have to look for the Reset option on the device.

Find out if you don’t have power saving mode activated because it limits many of your phone’s functions, or your phone is almost low on battery and is the reason why you are disconnecting frequently. There are certain mobile settings designed to optimize battery that could affect connections like this.

If none of this works, you will have to take it to the technician

Although in many cases, it will be enough to follow the steps above to fix it, if this does not work, you will have to try more things. It may be a good time to find out if the problem is with your mobile or the specific device , so try pairing your mobile with another Bluetooth device and the device you are interested in connecting with another mobile. Thus, you will rule out where the problem is. You can also use an app to find out if the Bluetooth of your mobile is working well.

If nothing you have tried works, you may have to go through the technical service if it is under warranty. Otherwise, you should assess whether it is worth it to fix it, do without Bluetooth technology or buy a new mobile (or device). But first of all, rule out all of the above, because in most cases it is usually fixed without having to go through this process or expense.
