S22 ultra, UI 7 update, Bluetooth issues

[MIDTECHoldie]

Hello, 

New here, received the ui7 update, since then Bluetooth devices connect intermittently, I have to restart my phone before they connect again, some times it seems like they are connected, then I answer a call or make a call, and  the Bluetooth device will not pick up the call and cannot connect even using the phone screen option. I try to turn it on (as the audio person and Google Assistant portion works), but that doesn't make a difference, then I have to restart my phone for Bluetooth to work again - additionally I noticed when I'm having this issue other Bluetooth devices may not be connecting properly at all....this is frustrating as I drive for a living and use a headset.. has anyone else had a similar issue or does anybody have ideas that could help solve this issue?..

I have restarted phone, and it will solve the issue temporarily.. I have unpaired the device and repaired, that does not solve, only restarting the phone solves it, but temporarily. 

Thank you in advance.

Same. I can get mine to connect to audio but not calls. I unpaired my car hoping it would fix it, but now I cant re-pair my car. It shows up in my available devices list but wont connect. Very frustrating

Same thing for me. I tried to unpair then pair it again. But now I'm completely locked out from that device lol

If you haven't yet cleared device cache, you should. This is a must after every software update, as it removes cached system files that can conflict with the new OS.

1) Turn off your device.

2) Press and hold the Volume Up button and the Side/Power button until you feel a vibration and the Samsung logo appears. Let go of the buttons.

3) You will now be in Android recovery. Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Wipe cache partition."

4) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

5) Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Yes."

6) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

7) "Reboot system now" will already be highlighted. Press the Side/Power button to execute.

This worked for my bluetooth connectivity issue! Appreciate the help. Hopefully this fix lasts.

It should. Like I said, it clears potentially conflicting system files and should be done after every software update (One UI version change).

Lo and behold bluetooth connectivity issues returned following day. Restarted phone and working again.

I did that and it didn't last.

I tried and wiped my cash, but the problems still exists. It actually worked once after I reset the cash and then has not worked properly since.
