I must be missing something but why do you need to be in the engineering menu to use bluetooth?

I cannot (somehow) play music through BT connection, so I found out that I must change the setting in engineering mode

But when I open the engineering mode screen, I couldn't move button for any selection except for exit the engineering mode. That's why I concerned? 🥲

Forgot to ask what phone you have, some phones support something call bluetooth backend that enables backwards compatibility. The new phone codecs might also affect (maybe?) this.
