S6 is "Not registered on network" if is paired with car



Hello,

I've looked everywhere but couldn't find any info on this problem.

My father purchased a new Galaxy S6 and it's working flawlessly except for when the S6 is paired (bluetooth) with his car (VW Golf).

When the S6 is paired with the car it can't make any call at all, it says "Not registered on network" but there is no problem making a call from the car integrated control.

Looking at the phone signal status with an app like "Network Signal Info" reports no signal at all (but there is full signal in the status bar), and the car dashboard shows full signal bar.

Now since the car can't handle all the phone contacts (in my father's car case his contact list stops at the M) and since calling a contact with the car control is really clunky, the solution would be to search and call the contact directly from the phone and then talk with the car 's hands free kit but sadly doing this the phone reports "Not registered on network".

I've tried looking under bluetooth setting but nothing seems to solve it (i hate touchwiz btw)

His previous phone was an iphone 4s and worked without any issues so as my oneplus one.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Is there a solution?

Bluetooth audio distortion while the watch is paired



If I stream music (Pandora, digitally imported) from my phone via Bluetooth audio to my car, and I also have my Gear S2 paired to my phone simultaneously, I can clearly hear distortion in the audio being received by my car, as if the bitrate is being forced lower. The distortion disappears as soon as my Gear S2 is disconnected.

Is having a Bluetooth audio device and a smart watch paired together a limitation of Bluetooth bandwidth? Any remedy or thoughts?
