Bluetooth broken since update

Since the last update my Bluetooth is a nightmare,no one can hear me properly.
I have it connected to a 2019 Toyota HiAce,s multi media unit and has always been crystal clear now I can hear them but they can't hear me properly.
Has anyone else come across this bug ?
Any ideas on a fix that doesn't involve a full reset?

I think you hit it on the head. I got the 1+pro and if I leave the battery saver on I get the issue, but turn it off and like magic it clears up.

I still can't be 100% positive as I am still on holiday so not using my van much but it seems to be it

PS how did you get to a battery bug you clever person?

Because bluetooth is a mess. I know that if bluetooth uses low power mode, the data transfer becomes very restricted and slow. If something works fine when something is on but works badly when something is on standby and is related to bluetooth then it's very likely related to LE mode, which makes sense as the bluetooth modules do suck quite a ton of battery and it wouldnt make much sense to leave it on stock mode as it would drain a ton of battery in standby, which as I believe the OP actually does.
Maybe ASUS could make a feature where it detects a headset or similair is being used (not connected, but actually used) and then turns of the LE mode off bluetooth temporarily.

Well my dalliance with OnePlus didn't last long. Great phone but they really stuffed up A12 bugs,bugs bugs and some more bugs. On A11 it was great so I suppose I could have rolled back to it but I only had so much time to return it for a refund. To top it off I still had the same issue with android auto and Bluetooth with the OnePlus but I think ( I know famous last words) but this time I have my fingers and toes crossed.

I have suspected it may be the Vodafone Sim card so I purchased a new Telstra prepaid 5G Sim card and so far it is like new again. The Telstra prepaid card is only valid for a month so I have that long to test it and see what happens. The Vodafone Sim card is a 12 month Sim and I am only a little less than 2 months into it , just about when my nightmare problem started, so I suppose I will keep it in number 2 slot and if the problem really is gone I will pay for a year on the Telstra prepaid card and keep that one in number 1 slot.

I can see a light at the end of this tunnel I just hope it's not a 🚆 Train 🤣

Same with the entire A11 on 7T, it was quite a nightmare as well, bug fiesta. ASUS got a way better grip on that, less bloated, less things to break.
As of now, I would defnitely wait and see whats going on with the ZF9. ASUS taking this long is extremely good news, phones with 8 gen1 pushed out and are not exacly impressive, gaming phones also out in feb and we still haven't heard from ASUS yet which means this time quality control is being taken very serious, they seem to have learned that rushing phones will only cause lots and lots of trouble and money in the long run (see zf8 non flip and Rog5 problems/bricks)

you can attempt it, if that's the case then it's a battery saving bug.

I don't know if this is possible but can a bad data cable corrupt android auto in my van ?
I am asking because I recently purchased a high quality Anker cable for my van to connect my wireless AAWireless dongle to my van and now it works great on either Sim card.

If that is possible I perhaps should have bought one ages ago.

Well I think I finally worked out what the problem was,I know I have said this before but this fix has lasted a few weeks now, all it was was a corrupt data cable,is this possible?? I purchased a high quality Anker cable and like that everything works again. I don't really understand why but it seems that when I connected my wireless android auto dongle with the bad cable to my van it would cause my vans multi media to play up including Bluetooth calls made after disconnecting it . Man talk about touchy ,it nearly drove me up the bloody wall . I knew I would get there in the end 😅

What is going on with the zenfone 7 updates lately, the 138 update is still not on the bios& firmware Asus site nor is this new one 140 ?

Has anyone noticed much better battery life on the 138 OS ? I don't know if it's just that I factory reset, time after time after time to get my bugs out or its the 138 update but my battery seems to be lasting at least one day longer

The most powerful cpu core is locked. It can't consume as much power, as usual, that's why battery life is better. If you like this, next time you can check phones with snapdragon 7XX (instead of 8XX) and 4500mah+ battery.

What does the CPU core do ? I think it has something to do with the speed of your phone but I'm not sure
