About Bluetooth Keepalive

You have a problem with the Bluetooth connection to your hands-free? Every few minutes it's disconnecting and re-establishing? This could be a problem with the standby mode or WiFi interference of your Android. For these problems "Bluetooth Keepalive" can help you.

NEW: A2DP Keepalive Support. Your A2DP speakers/receiver go to sleep when not playing music, but being connected? The next usage is going weird? With A2DP support you can prohibit your A2DP speakers/receiver from going to standby. Speakers will give a regular sound to prevent standby mode.

Before you buy, please check on this website, if BTKA can really help you:

Some Samsung smartphones have activated "energy saving" mode. Please be sure to turn it off (Maybe test before buying BTKA, if that already helps you). BTKA does not need "root" - only the rights requested by the Market.

After installation start BTKA manually. It registers with Android™ and will from now on start automatically whenever you restart your Android™. After starting the app there is a "Configuration" button (visible for 2 seconds), with that you can change the configuration settings for notifications and the starting-behaviour of BTKA. For hints on how to configure BTKA correctly see the check page above.

I bought a new phone because of this problem of my bluetooth dropping off my handsfree car kit, didn't like the new phone as much as this one so looked for a solution and this was it! I have only used it for one day so far but have made and recieved several phone calls in my car today and there has been no drop outs.. Perfect best app I've ever bought!

I replaced an amplified speaker for my tablet navigation GPS because the audio port got noisy on the tablet. When I installed the bluetooth speaker I was losing about the first two words from the navigation software. I installed this app and set it to transmit a 20 Hz tone at very low volume for the A2DP protocol. That solved my problem 100% and all is back to normal now for my hybrid GPS navigation system. The bluetooth speaker does unpair after 12 hours of non use, but a simple power off and back on solves this problem. (I believe this is in the speaker itself). I am using a Pipo M3 Moviemax tablet for the main part of my system. I do highly recommend this app as it does what it says it will do.

This was one euro well spent. All random Bluetooth disconnects from my Skoda Octavia with brand new Sony Z5 have vanished after installing this app. Sony's stamina mode does complain, but that only happens when phone is connected to the car. Thanks for this great app! Now I won't go nuts after all.

This app is great...it almost does the trick I went from drop outs every to seconds to one every now and then. I have a nvidia shield tablet and I couldn't use the Bluetooth unless the screen was lit. I'm hoping that future updates will totally correct the issue but still worth the money spent. I don't have to keep the sreen lit and drain my battery anymore!!!!

I have a TomTom Via 135 with hands free and a Kazam trooper2 4.5 phone( yes I know) but it was cheap and works great for me. The phone and TomTom paired OK but when the phones screen timed out and locked within a couple of seconds I got a no communication with phone message from the Tomtom. As I sit here writing this the two have been on for about an hour so I am a very happy Camper, £1 very very well spent Thank You

Since my Moto x 2014 Updated to 5.1 my bt connection to my car radio dropped when the phone went to sleep. I tried every known remedy and in desperation tried this. It worked! Thanks

I own a Samsung GS3 and and LG HBS-700 Tone headset. Every since the upgrade to Android 4.4.2, the headset would disconnect from the phone a minute or two after the screen shut off. Checked multiple android forums and could find no solution. Thought I'd try this as a last ditch effort but was vacillating on the cost of something that may or may not work. After testing it this morning, my Bluetooth headset is now useful once again and it didn't disconnect even after 45 minutes of continuous use. I would highly recommend this app for anyone who is having issues with their Samsung dropping their Bluetooth accessories. Thank you so much.

Everytime you use this thing's pause button, you must again disconnect and reconnect the blutooth device. Ugh! Also it sends about 2 seconds of sound, then stops, then another 2 seconds. My speaker goes into idle mode if the sound stops even for a split second. Makes my speaker pop every 2 seconds. Had to pick a long audio and set to 1% volume. Also, changing any setting, is buggy galore. Full of bugs. If you pick a new sound, you must also pick a new interval, or it will keep playing the old sound. Buggy.

U70%
by U####:

It waits for a device when the bluetooth wireless speaker is already connected... So then it misses to make the sound every 10mins or so, and the speaker turns off, waste of money!

Hi, This works for me on Samsung S3 with Jabra mini. I used the default settings. I did not change any settings. For my second headset, on same phone, Plantronics M50 I also checked "turn off Wifi/Wlan when bluetooth connected." Thanks. God bless. Aaron

I still have problems with my Garmin Nuvi 2595 disconnecting from my Samsung Galaxy Nexus- Verizon. Hoping I'll get help from the developer. It is the end of August, and I still can't keep my phone paired to my Garmin Nuvi. I wish there was a way to fix this. The units pair up fine, but don't stay paired even though they are within two feet of each other.

I was using a bluetooth microsoft keyboard with my Galaxy Note and it kept disconnecting/reconnecting every couple of minutes even while I was typing. Really annoying. After installing this app, the problem is still occuring but it seems a bit less frequent than it was before.

I previously gave this 1 star because my WiFi kept turning BT off even when I set KeepAlive to turn WiFi off when using Ford Sync. After emailing the developer, he suggested that another app accessing BT could be the problem. He was right; now BT seems to work with Ford Sync without KeepAlive running. The developer even offered to refund my $1.50 but I told him that at least he deserved that for solving my problem. I'm giving it 4 stars for that reason.

Of the 'bluetooth fixer' apps I've tried, this one works flawlessly. Others don't, do yourself a favour and buy this, £1 bargain price too.

Seems to work, sometimes. At the moment this does NOT work. I think that it is insane that one needs to install a hack like this to be able to use a bluetooth headset without recurring disconnects. Shame on you, Google! Motorola Moto G & Nokia BH-112U.
