Hey everyone!

I'm having an issue that I can't seem to resolve. I have a Galaxy S5 that recently received the lollipop update. Prior to this update when playing music from Google Play Music the track/artist metadata would pass and show up on my car's stereo display. Post update I can still connect, play music over bluetooth, and control the music with steering wheel/dash controls, but the metadata no longer displays (using Google Play Music).

I did some different tests and if I play a mp3 file from the stock music app the metadata is passed. I also connected my wife's phone ( Moto X still on KitKat) and tried streaming music though GP Music and the metadata shows up as expected. I've tried deleting/pairing my phone again and even did a factory reset on my S5 last night, but nothing seems to resolve this.

I know there seems to be hit or miss with AVRCP and I've made a similar post in an Android forum, but I haven't been able to find much in terms of actual information and thought I'd check in to see if anyone has had a similar experience or would possibly have a solution.

Thanks!

 

I have similar experience with my iPhone running iOS 8.1.3. I use Spotify or play music that is stored on the phone, when doing so it will only display metada when I have the lightning cable plugged in, it won't display the metadata over Bluetooth.

 

I wish I could say that I have found a solution, but am still working on it on my end. My problem is that the metadata display is intermittent.

I got on the phone with Honda support a while back, and the tech had the "courage" to tell me that it was specific to each song. Even after I gave him a very specific explanation, he was still willing to say that it was not a software defect, but rather a problem with the music files. I suppose this could be true for MP3 data, but would not explain streaming from Pandora.

Please, does anyone have a solution for this??
