Has anyone tested if the Gnex with ICS now supports AVRCP 1.3+ when connecting it via Bluetooth to their car stereo?
1.3/1.4 should support displaying Track info when playing music via Bluetooth. I have a 2010 Mazda which should support it, but I wanted to see if others had tried this?
If it does have support I would think Google Music would support it, but hopefully it extends system wide for things like Spotify?
It did not work in Gingerbread, but I had hoped to see it in ICS.
Here is a thread from earlier:

I believe Android is using the BlueZ Bluetooth stack which appears to support AVRCP 1.3:

My 2010 Mazda would be much better if the display didn't just say "BT" but rather the track title

same with my 11 explorer. it just says galaxy nexus where the title goes
My BMW with connecteddrive shows "No track info" , so i'm guessing it's not working
No. ICS has no AVRCP 1.3+ support. At least for now.
I read somewhere that there will be changes made to bluetooth with 4.0.3.
Maybe Google finally woke up and implemented the latest bluez.
Seems like we have to wait....
Would be awesome if it did. Loved my HP Veer because it did. Also tired of seeing just BT on my radio
I can add to all of this with a few personal experiences. Back and forward work, however, music info doesn't work on the following that I have tested:
BMW ConnectedDrive system (someone confirmed that above)
Ford Sync system
Acura system
Let's hope that 4.0.3 incorporates this.
Has anyone tried one of the .3 custom roms to see if anything has changed?
Same issue on 2011 Nissan Maxima, track and artist info is blank.

Unfortunately I am quite confident that our 2010 Mazdas do not support avrcp 1.3, only 1.0.
Also it has far less to do with the OS than having to do with the bluetooth drivers/stack. My neighbor's droid x sends metadata to his 2011 mits. lancer, but when we tried it on my 2010 mazda3 we saw nothing but "bt audio". The 2011+ on the other hand supposedly do support avrcp 1.3.
While hearing that bluez has finally implemented avrcp support in their nearly ubiquitous bt stack, it unfortunately does not mean that we will be seeing meta data...
One interesting thing to note is that while the 2010s support avrcp 1.0 and the 2011s support avrcp 1.3/1.4 the bluetooth module is a slightly different part number, they are interchangeable (according to my dealer).
Unfortunately the Galaxy Nexus (with FW 4.0.1) has AVRCP 1.0 which means no ID3 tag info, no repeat/shuffle/scan, just basic controls (play/pause/skip).
Let's hope that with the new FW there will be some changes in the BT stack.
As far as I can see it doesn't have the Message Access Profile either. My S2 got my text messages to my sync system, no luck with the Nexus.
Any more word on this? Bought a nice new stereo for my car and would love to see some track information

T_T I have a 2011 Mazda 3 and my galaxy nexus also won't show any track info. I was excited to see that the gnex had bluetooth 3.0 but didn't realize it would only be AVRCP 1.0... My gf's sister has an HD7 and when it pairs with my car it shows all the info and it also has the reading your text message feature so when she receives a text the car will ask "read it or ignore"
Is there anyway to copy bluetooth files that have the AVRCP 1.3 from another phone to ours?

Running a 4.0.3 build and nothing is shared to my Audi Music Interface. Hopefully an official build may address it?

I've seen mention of CM supporting it, has anyone tried AVRCP with an unofficial CM build?

I had CM 7.1 installed on my Desire HD, and AVRCP worked. The screen on my Mazda showed track, album, and artist information information.
Hey everyone,
It seems as if track information is not being passed to my Ford Sync system from my Telus Galaxy S3 when using Slacker Radio or any other app. I have also tried JB without luck either which has me concerned that this is not going to be included in the next update (I'm back running ICS after too many bugs with JB)
I use Slacker radio all the time and not having track information on screen is a huge bummer! (Album art would have been nice too).
iPhone seemed to work flawlessy in that regard.
I cannot find any info on anyone putting in a different bluetooth stack that supports AVRCP from third party apps like there was for CM9 for other android phones....anyone have any idea how to get this working?
i read this on official forum
[Android 4.2... Google removed BlueZ layer so now your joystick does'nt work on the new jelly bean. Hope you can upgrade your firmware otherwise your paddle is no more compatible with Android.]
like in the subject, i can't pair Snakebyte iDroid:con with Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.2.1 (CM10.1) ...is it possibile to do that with SixAxis or Bluez IME? i have no succes with it.. Bluez doesn't mention PS3 controller like device to control..
anyone with an idea?
thanks..

New Bluetooth stack
Android 4.2 introduces a new Bluetooth stack optimized for use with Android devices. The new Bluetooth stack developed in collaboration between Google and Broadcom replaces the stack based on BlueZ and provides improved compatibility and reliability.
Hi,
Is it possible root all chinese android car dvd players? I have now 4.0.4 version and is it possible root without computer? What custom roms are best for this kinda players? I saw that current version not support bluetooth and i am intresting bluetooth support for calling. Is there big chace brick that player?
I think the real challenge is how to build the custom rom for that kind of device. Chinese companies like to use unknown/uncommon cheap hardware to assemble Android device. Without the drivers for the hardware, you cannot build a custom rom.

I have bought yestarday an awful Android 4.0 8inch 2Din Car Video Player For TOYOTA PRIUS 2009-2012 Left (PIP,3D UI,GPS,TV,WIFI,3G,BT,IPOD,RDS). It was "prerooted", after installing Super User every programs which needed root are working. Did you buy something like this?

I installed version 4.0 of this IPTV android streaming app on my Fire TV cube in Dec. to watch some Eastern European news channels which I can't get by satellite Astra. It worked fine with MX player. After Christmas an obligatory update appeared to a version 1.6 (? following 4.0) which makes the app look totally different and does not have favorites option anymore etc. Not yet managed go get it work. Saw that Yalla receiver should be installed eventually. Anyone knows why they "updated" the fine working version 4.0?
