My bluetooth has dropped connection to my speaker a few times so I went to clear the other Bluetooth cache and realized I can no longer access this from system apps. Did we lose that capability?

I'm having issues with Multiple Bluetooth devices...

 

I have a Fold 5, Android 14. Followed the steps all the way to "Tap on Show system apps"... My phone doesn't have this option... And I've searched for "Bluetooth Cache" and had no relevant results back...

 

This NEEDS to get fixed! The only Bluetooth devices that work now are galaxy/Samsung ones!

I took this all to steps that for sure should have cleared all cache data threw the recovery mode, and guess what it still didn't clear it. Google **bleep** yall phones up, I know what they doing they aint slick. They messing all other phones up, but there "pixel" which is garbage, literally is getting pushed into the spotlight. Because they aint messing, they own phones up. Only the other brands Google is predatory they gonna ruin Samsung and all others. If someone don't get in, they **bleep** **bleep** about this **bleep**. Because my phone operates like absolute **bleep** because Google took the option to clear all that useless **bleep**. Now my flagship is worse than a budget phone bout ready to say the **bleep** with all phones. Every year I hear "oh upgrade upgrade" but where is the upgrade? One **bleep** update that introduced Gemini AI destroyed my phone in a matter of months. I've been sending error reports, I've been calling and letting this issue be known, but ain't a single **bleep** person actually fixed it. I've gotten a **bleep** load of software updates since then. So when the **bleep** are yall gonna stop saying the same old **bleep** song and dance, and actually **bleep**ing fix this **bleep**? Because I'm God **bleep** ready to finish this phone off with one hellish baseball pitch, this phone is trash now and it pisses me off, because out of all the years I've been with Samsung, aint not a phone as **bleep** as this one. The sad fact was that it was the best one now. My galaxy s7 from 2016 out does this s22+. 6 year older phone walking this one like a dog, that's absolutely ridiculous. I don't know why yall trust and think Google ain't got nefarious intentions. I know **bleep** well they do they wanna rule and control everything. Look at Google and YouTube. You get banned for saying **bleep**. Do you really want them tapping your phones? Because I can already tell you now, they have done fired shots, and all other phones are acting really crappy. Because Google wants their phone to seem good when it's clearly a flop. I've used one they **bleep**. Samsung actually fix it we can not clear cache, and system apps and storage yea whatever. That dont work thats how we found out it was locked out IN THE FIRST PLACE JUST FIX IT THAT IS YOUR DEPARTMENT. We have tried and it won't let us. I took it even further with recovery mode trying to wipe all cache off the phone, nope, still did not work. So Samsung pull your pants up and fix this garbage, or you'll lose alot of people I bet a Dollar General track phone would fly past this one, like it sitting still it's so slow because all the cache data. It needs to be cleared we need to be able to clear it. So something somewhere somehow needs to happen.

Update it's all Android because Google owns Android so yall might as well just get used to garbage or go to Apple thats the only option but even they got problems from what I've heard **bleep** happened to phones they was good for a long while now they back to 2008

But can confirm Google 100% is who took the option away to "simplify Androids" but they made them more complicated and degraded the operating system by about a decade or more this is honestly a hassle but apparently in developer options you can hit "turn off A2DP hardware offload" and apparently that's supposed to help it I did it to mine it dont clear the cache but it's supposed to help it operate better and stop the wild behavior and it's hit or miss if it will work but if anyone wanted one more option there it is you have to shut it off and restart the phone and leave the A2DP off I'm trying everyone been researching this for many many months trying to find any fix I can hopefully this helps someone

Trying this out as I have a medical device that keeps disconnecting from the phone's bluetooth and isn't in the connection history either.

It may help it may not hope it at least makes your Bluetooth usable again I'm bout ready to jump ship back to Apple Android ruined the Bluetooth ability but years before this they took away to 3.5mm jack almost ringing money grab to me like they forcing the phones to mess up to make you upgrade faster and more frequent just opinion though
