Bluetooth Speakers

I bought a bluetooth HDMX Jam yesterday. Hopefully 4.2.1 comes out before I give it to myself for Christmas.

Its funny. I bought my jam at Bed bath and whatever. 20 %.0ff coupon. It was my first BT speaker and the beginning of my WiFi BT plight. Some jerkoff ..can I say that? stole it when I left it with some food outside a place on a newspaper machine for like two minutes. They probably didn't even know what it was. I wish they would of just taken the eggrolls.

I have figured out a remedy to the sound skipping. If you turn off bluetooth and then back on it sometimes fixes the problem. It is hit or miss but better than nothing.

I've noticed that or if you turn WiFi off and then back on it helps sometimes.

I wonder if re-pairing the bluetooth device while streaming something over wifi will help. Depends on whether bt will channel hop around the wifi frequency. My router channel is set on auto so that might be an issue as well.

I tried re-pairing. It was hit or miss for me. Lately I have just been toggling BT of and on and it usually helps. Like Sarge just mentioned. Toggling WiFi sometimes works too. Matt I think there is something to your theory.. didn't you mention something about same frequencies or something?Can't remember exactly ..Now if there is a way to truly fix it. I have noticed that my Sling box immediately stutters with Bluetooth on. If I change the stream to low resolution which sucks it stutters but not as much. Either way its useless. The SlingBox is hardwired straight from my router. It works beautifully anywhere I am when there is good WiFi. Connect a portable speaker, instant garbage. The remedy is a wired speaker using the headphone jack as a line out but that is annoying.
Love the minds here. Very lucky.

I went the less expensive route, Creative D100, works great and sounds good. I have my Pioneer sound system if I really want vibrate the windows in my house.

I have a Hiwatt 200 if I want to break the windows in my neighbors house...

I'm just guessing, waiting for an update that will fix all problems and bring new ones.

Wifi and bluetooth are both 2.4ghz band. There's also 5ghz wifi but not for the nexus7.

I use the supertooth disco, without any hickups on jb 4.2.
Bose is a good unit, only to pricy.. The supertooth has 30 watts of power,
active subwoofer, and has the buttons you need  (forward. play, pause, back)
Battery lasts about 6 to 10 hours. I was pleasently surprised with this unit..

I would love to know why some folks have problems and some don't.

I am happy to announce that my Bluetooth sound is working great since the new update. YouTube still has buffering issues occasionally but hey..Can't have everything.

My proht headphones have no problems since 4.2.2. Listened to Pandora for 2 hours without a hiccup.
