BQ Aquaris E5
Volkswagen Phaeton 2011 (VW Navigation System RNS810)
OTA14

Finally IT WORKS! But from the beginning:

After the OTA 14 Update I tried again to connect to my in car bluetooth
system and make calls. Connecting (still) worked. Next I tried to make a
call and again no sound from the speakers. After random changes on both
ends (phone and in car system, of course with no systematic tracking), I
tried again to call somebody and now speakers/mic worked perfectly. I
left my car, entered again, phone reconnected and now again no sound!?!
Wtf? But I was hooked, if it worked one time, it has to be possible to
make it work again ...

It took me some time to track down the necessary conditions for a stable
and working bluetooth connection:

1. In the phones bluetooth settings the auto connect button for the
connection to the in car bluetooth system has to be disabled. If this is
not disabled, the car and the phone try to establish the connection at
the same time and things get messed up, up to the point where both
systems eventually freeze.

2. The car system can only establish the bluetooth connection, if the
screen of the phone is unlocked.

That's all. If you pay attention to these 2 points, really everything
works perfectly (for Volkswagen systems)! Even streaming media via
bluetooth works!

I'm really excited, thank you very much for your work! I use my phone
for business and desperately needed a working hands free system in my
car. Unlocking my screen after entering the car is no big deal to me.
Switching back to android is now definitely off the table. Thank you
again and keep up the great work! I really love the usability and GUI of
my ubuntu phone!

Bug description:
  With my FORD Focus Car, pairing does not work. The bluetooth system in
  the car searches for devices and shows "Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition"

  phone doesn't react at all and after a while the car system says that
  it failed to connect.
