I have a bluetooth question and it's not specific to this tablet. And, it may not be fixable. I leave bluetooth on all the time for all my devices. It's necessary for keyboards, car stereo, etc.
I have my main bluetooth speaker paired with my phone (a Note 3) and my Note 10.1. However, when I turn the speaker on it automatically connects to the phone. This is a problem because the phone may be downstairs while I'm upstairs with the tablet. I want to play music from the tablet but find I have to go downstairs and turn off bluetooth on the phone and then go back upstairs to play music from the tablet.
Is there a way for me to force which device gets control of the bluetooth speaker? Can I send an I-want-the-speaker command to the phone to have the phone release it's stranglehold on the speaker?
It's frustrating behavior having a speaker that doesn't do what I want. Yeah, I could buy a speaker for every floor but that's not the economical.
