Bluetooth doesn’t work since the update to iode 3.0, when I activate it after a boot I get a notification that Bluetooth doesn’t work with the option to close the app. Doesn’t matter what I do, Bluetooth ends up deactivated and deactivates itself every time I try to activate it again.  
Any help?

I fixed the issue, clearing the storage data of bluetooth was the solution, I’m not gonna delete the post however if someone has the same problem, maybe my solution works for them too.

Well known issue:

> No problem. I did it that way. Just sideload the zip in recovery without wiping the data. No problems at all. Everything’s running fine. Just two things if you update to 3.0 that way: First You have to clear cache and data in bluetooth app after first start in 3.0. Otherwise if will crash permanently. Settings/apps/ - show system apps - bluetooth apps Second Enable developer settings Enable “deactivate bluetooth a2dp hardware offload” Reboot Otherwise bluetooth audio is not clear

This worked for me too at the time.
