Android: fix constant reconnection loops

Android reconnects constantly, it connects and disconnects very fast.

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Symptoms

  • Your Fieldy device is nearby, but the app repeatedly disconnects and reconnects.

  • Transcription starts/stops or drops intermittently.

  • You may see “Connecting…” cycling over and over in notifications bar.

Why this happens

On some Android phones, in some cases Android OS falsely notifies Fieldy app that device disappeared. If Fieldy is set to stop the Bluetooth service when the device disappears, the connection drops and restart the BLE service repeatedly - creating a reconnection loop.

Fix

  1. Open Fieldy app.

  2. Go to Fieldy Settings.

  3. Tap Bluetooth Connectivity.

  4. Find Stop service when device disappears.

  5. Toggle it OFF.
