Bluetooth turning off

I have an issue with Bluetooth on my phone. I use Bluetooth for my Samsung Gear S3 smartwatch. The phone suddenly turns off the Bluetooth and turns it back on. This started happening when I installed Android 7.0. Things I did so far: cleaned the cache, restarted my phone several times, rebooted it in Safemode to see if any of the installed apps are causing the problem(which are not), did a hard reset of my phone, did a software repair with Xperia Companion and none of the above worked. I'm honestly desperate right now and any help that you could give me would be useful.

I have the same issue and only find that turning the phone off and restarting it fixes it until I disconnect from a Bluetooth device and then the Bluetooth just turns off by itself and will not work again. Found the issue has occurred since the last android update. It is really frustrating. I would like to find out how to fix it too.

Only thing that worked for me so far was turning Location Mode to 'Device only'. It only worked for a few hours though.
