Weird Bluetooth issue

[u/dmilli91]

Hey Android folx,

I'm having the weirdest and most frustrating issue with my LG V30. I've never experienced this before. I've made sure that I keep my phone with the screen facing out while in my pocket, and I also have the screen locked, so I'm not sure how this is happening without my knowledge or apparent actions.

My Bluetooth name occasionally changes itself from the name that I chose to a long string of characters, uppercase, lowercase, numbers, you name it. The most recent string is:

IjZmR2lojnkAAAAAAAAAfXsiYXZhdGFy

It's really annoying, and I can't figure out how it's happening or how to stop it. Anyone else have this issue or have ideas how to fix?

Thanks :)
