Description

Scenario:

  1. connect to external GPS receiver
  2. minimize input. Bluetooth connection is lost
  3. open it again and there should be 5s timer for re connection. Not input just says device is not paired

It is possible that android 13 have different handling of Bluetooth devices.
I tried this on android 11 version and reconnection timer was there

I would not consider this as blocker

Research direction

Start by reproducing the external GPS receiver scenario on Android 13, then compare it with Android 11, where the five-second reconnection timer was observed. No source files or tests are named; done means restoring the expected reconnection behavior or documenting why Android 13 requires a different approach.
