Since the upgrade to iOS 16.3.1 on a iPhone X, I have problems with Bluetooth connectivity.

I am unable to switch on the bluetooth, it just has the spinning circle symbol where the on/off slider should be.

I've seen potential solutions of pressing volume up then volume down then power off, reset network connections.

Have tried both of these and sometimes they work, but very rarely.

Even tried a full factory reset and that hasn't worked either, although I did restore a backup from iCloud, so whether there's something in the back up that's causing it I can't show.

Is anybody else having this issue?

IF you restored your phone as NEW and not from backup and still have issue then you need to contact Apple support or schedule an appointment with the genius bar and take the phone in.

Thanks, am trying a fresh factory reset with a backup restored to see if that resolves the situation

No you restore the phone as new not from backup. You already stated in your original post you restored from backup and it didn't work.

Happened on my new iPad Pro, now happening to the replacement so I’m going to Genius Bar again… but with the replacement. Only seems to happen when I’m at work, but my iPhone seems fine and an older gen iPad Pro also has been fine…at work.
