I had the HTC One M8 before this phone and when I played a song via bluetooth in my car, the song info would show on my car display. Now, when I play a song using my Note, it doesn't show any data anymore. Is there a setting I need to activate to show bluetooth metadata or does the Note just not support that? I'm using Spotify btw.
I have the Sony Bluetooth adapter for my headphones and it shows the metadata just fine.
I'm not getting metadata displayed on the Pioneer Z150 in my car, but when I paired it up in my sister in law's Buick Enclave, it works. I can't find any settings in the phone, and Poweramp, my media player, has all of its settings correct.
Mine works fine. Show all it's data. Pandora, even shows the album cover
Yesterday I paired with a Kia rental I was using while my truck was being serviced. The phone displayed a message that Kia wanted to access information on my device when I paired the two. I declined the request and no data displayed. I imagine the data would have displayed had I accepted the request.
Unpair the phone and try again. If the information request pops up, accept it. Maybe that will solve your issue.

I have a q50 and had the same issue. it was hell... I have gotten so spoiled by seeing the info on dash. Anyway, I spent some time playing with the settings and found these work in poweramp.
I'm not sure if album art works with this configuration... I could never get it working on note 3, either...I think it's a limitation of the q...
Edit: These settings are in power amp under bluetooth. I believe the sony 3 setting is the one that fixed it, however It did NOT immediately fix it. Skipping forward/back from device or head unit didn't make any difference. There's no real details on the page of how they work All i know is I ran through the settings, got to 3, it didn't work... got into and out of the car a few times through regular use...and it worked... its been working all weekend.

I'll be giving this a shot... but I can't imagine that I should have to do this. I'm not getting tag data from any Bluetooth streaming source... Sonza, Pandora, Samsung music player or Poweramp.
I highly doubt those settings will fix anything except poweramp... For me this is a complete fix, as I use it exclusively

I see allot of people with the metadata not showing issue as well as my self with the Note 4. Had no problem with my Note 3. I have a 2012 Mazdaspeed 3. Hoping for a fix.
The Note4 has a newer Bluetooth stack, 4.1, which has an updated AVRCP profile. (Audio Video Remote Control Protocol). My the steering wheel controls on my 2013 car worked fine in PocketCasts to skip tracks, Pause/FF/Rewind on the Note3, but now nothing works with the Note4.
I've done a bit of searching around on it, and it seems maybe a firmware update for the car's audio system (Mark Levinson) could resolve, I have an email into my service rep....
Following up from my previous fix... It worked solid for a week or two... Then decided to stop working right... Now it works for a couple days, and doesn't work for a couple days

I have to unpair and repair my Bluetooth headset every single time I use it. (phone audio only). Looks like Samsung really borked up BT.
Thinking about upgrading to MDL this weekend to see if that fixes it.
i dont know about bluetooth with car, but i listen to my bluetooth headphones every day at work for hours and i have had no probs whatsoever with my bluetooth. it paired really easy like too easy and that was it.
I guess thanks for the fact that at least it works manually so in my case its a 100% software issue.

I have the same problem with my Denon aftermarket head unit.
My Motorola BT headset pairs ok, but the quality of the audio is so bad to my callers I can't use it. On my S3 it sounded fine. I had to switch to a different headset that's giant and stupid.

Had minor issues (device based) when it was "paired" to 2 devices.
Use Bluetooth Auto Connect from play store. I was having the same problem except mine connected on to media instead of phone. That app fixed it right up.
Mine will drop connection intermittently to my VW RNS-315 head unit and also drop connection to my Jawbone Icon HD. When it drops the Jawbone I often see a message on the screen that says Bluetooth Sharing has crashed. Not sure if this is as a result of the rooting process or if it's a glitch in the latest firmware. Hoping Samsung will fix and T-Mo will release patch soon.
Have yet to have an issue here with my S4 and my JVC Arsenel (Dont remember which model #, was one of the higher single DIN units a year ago though), use it daily and it connects on its own without issue / hassel both phone and media
I experience the same phone only problem with my Ford Sync system, I have to manually check Media audio, but it pairs both the first tube after unpairing. I'll try the Play Store app and report back today. I will say is nice to see voice control over bluetooth has been fixed in Jelly Bean.
UPDATE: Bluetooth Auto Connect (The first one listed in a Play Store search by Jakub Klos) works flawlessly to connect Phone and Media audio. Thanks @Sym_Link!
No problems with bluetooth here, my Pioneer radio in my Grand Marquis, both audio and phone sync flawlessly. However, my Sony unit in the Saturn, will sync the phone no problem, but I still have to manually check the box to sync with audio.
My experience w/ BT audio has been variable. I have an aftermarket head unit installed on a '05 Acura RSX (JVC-NSX1 - http://www.crutchfield.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/p_105NSX1/JVC-KW-NSX1.html).
Note: my headunit also utilizes MirrorLink...which is just flippin' awesome.
BT Media audio seems to be very app dependent. I use Grooveshark and Play Music for my day to day listening, and I find that my Grooveshark will auto-play when BT Connects but if I'm going from a fresh power cycle of my automobile to Google Play I have to start the app on my phone prior to accessing the in-dash controls on my head unit.
Other times I can just select in dash controls and it will play Play Music.
Ironically, since the iOS 6.0 update plugging in the GF's iPhone no longer plays audio (freaking Apple). So if she wants to stream media it's only available over BT. Ah, progress!
My Note connects to my car (2014 Nissan Altima) but it does not work properly.
My Galaxy S3 worked perfectly fine. The music played, titles of songs showed, calling and phone book features worked, and connected every time automatically. Now it is a completely different story with the Note 4. At first the only problem was that the titles or any information about the song did not show up on the dash. But now I can't even make a call. Even if I manually go into my phone and call someone I can't hear them and they can't hear me. The only thing that works is the music plays through the speakers.
Is anyone else having this problem or, most importantly, know a solution?
I posted about this too, I have the exact same problem in 3 different cars from 2008 all the way to 2015 and everyone says to try and update the cars firmware for the new bluetooth but that did not help. The funny thing is, I had it working fine for a bit then out of the blue it just stopped and now the phone acts like my stereo is a bluetooth headset.

I am having the same issue with my Note 4. My truck has the Parrot MKI9200 bluetooth. With my Note 2 and my wife's S5 i can make a receive calls with no problem. With my Note 4 I can play music over bluetooth, but if I try to make or receive a call I can't hear the person on the other end and they cannot hear me. With one exception. I have found that if I was listening to music over bluetooth then I can make/receive calls with no issues, as long as I let the phone app stop the music playback.
It is driving me crazy.
Note 4 bluetooth issues
I am having issues with the bluetooth on my Porsche PCM when on calls it sounds like there is a bunch of paddles prattling for a few seconds every 10 t0 20 seconds and then the call will sometimes drop. Any ideas?
Hopefully some new firmware in the future can fix these silly problems

So I think I may have found a work around. This morning I went into the bluetooth settings on my phone and I unchecked the Call Audio box and the Media Audio box for my truck. I exited settings. Then went back to settings and checked the boxes. After that my bluetooth worked perfectly for calls and media.

Check under Bluetooth for your car, hit the settings icon next to it, is call and media checked?

have had the same problem intermittently on my Ford Edge with My Sync connects fine once then the next time connects but wont answer calls or volume drops, only solution i have found is to unpair the device forget it and start over (this happened with my S5 on android 4.4.4 as well)
To disable it... Just long press the icon (in the app tray) and drag it to the top... There is an option I believe 3rd from left that allows you to disable it....I disable all the bloatware I don't use.... I didn't disable smart remote thinking I would use it....
How did I figure out that would work.... I have no clue... But I was having the pairing failed every single time I got in the car... Had to unpair and remove device every time.... After disabling... Haven't had an issue once...

Nissan 370Z, no bluetooth connection issues with me. Every once in a while after start up, the initial song title doesnt show on the screen, but once it goes to the next track it's fine. Note 3 never had that issue.
Got the new G4 (replacing a G3) and am having an issue with Bluetooth in the car. It only syncs the phone and there is no option to sync media. It worked fine with the G3. Is there an option that I'm missing? I tried resyncing it numerous times and I still don't get the media option in the bluetooth settings for the device.
Mine does fine on Ford Sync 2014 Focus. The native music app didn't seem to be able to be controlled, like skip to next, when the screen was off but PowerAmp does.
Works fine in my 2013 legacy. Did you make sure the Media option is checked off in the cars settings within Bluetooth settings?

I had that same problem. Had to try multiple time and have music playing when pairing. Make sure you forget the device on your car and phone. Keep trying you'll eventually get it.
So audio will play through the bluetooth receiver in my car, but none of the data will be displayed. None of the meta data of the song information will be displayed on the screen.
I thought that there was a thread about this here, but I can't find it. Has a fix been found for this?
Did you have a previous phone paired to the same car before the g4? If so you might need to unpair it.

I use Google Music to stream music in my car (2013 Nissan Altima), but this issue is occurring regardless of what streaming service I use. I upgraded from an LG G3, and when streaming, my car's stereo would display track information. After switching to the G4, it will still stream the music perfectly fine, but it is not displaying the track info. To verify it wasn't an issue with either just my phone, or the car stereo, yesterday I connected a friends G4, and it wouldn't display the info. But when connecting another friends G3, it would display it fine. The G4's are of course on 5.1, and both my friends G3 and my old one were on 5.0. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

My G4 won't automatically connect to my '14 Subaru WRX. The only way to get it to connect for me is to manually go into Bluetooth settings and select it. Even then, sometimes it takes 2-3 times for it to actually connect. Once I get it connected, it streams music fine, but doesn't display any track info. It's pretty annoying.
I did some research on this and found out people with the note 4 were having similar issues. Some suggesting it could be the difference in BT version between our phones and cars?
I have a pioneer fh-x700bt head unit and I'm having the same issue. Phone works like it should. All my call information is there, audio sounds great. Media also sounds great. Just not getting track info. I use Amazon music and iHeartRadio. Never had a problem with my htc one m7.

For the not re-connecting after upgrading to a G4, try adding the BT device (car) to the Smart Lock trusted devices list. Also, might also be good to try unparing the devices, re-paring and adding to the Smart Lock trusted devices list.
As far as BT streaming goes, I'm having sound quality issues with my G4. Regardless of what music app I use, BT streaming audio is distorted. Gain seems to be set very high. Posted it here.
Seems as though no one has figured out the song information display issue.
I hope this will get fixed, it's pretty annoying.

It really is. As silly as it may sound, the native bluetooth support on the stock stereo played a part in my decision when I decided to buy my car. My old car, I used a bluetooth receiver plugged into the aux port, but I really liked that I could use the steering wheel to change tracks (which I still can), and that it displayed song info with my new car.
I made a post on the Google support forums, but didn't get a response
Maybe we can make some noise about this to LG? It's not just a particular G4 model that isn't working. It's across the board.

So I had been on the beta version since it was released and participated a few times in the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/android-o-beta-issues-t3609335 and others were having the same issue.
The issue is no song/artist information being displayed on my touchscreen stereo, and I cannot use the stereo to pause/skip to the next track (I have to do it through my phone). Ive tried a local audio player, Google Music, and Pandora all to no avail. The deck is a Pioneer double-din AVH-P8400BH.
In my daily car, my phone bluetooth name appears and I can change song ect thru the deck. It is not a touchscreen and it probably 10 years old.
Ive gone into the bluetooth settings and have tried changing the AVRCP from 1.4 to 1.6 (neither work), and audio codec from default to enable optional (neither worked).
Anything else I should try out?

mine has awful streaming. It has so many skips...snags...audio blanks...whatever term you want to call it....its not "uninterrupted".
I was hoping google IMPROVED Bluetooth. I don't understand why they have this struggle to be honest. Its 2017....Bluetooth is not new technology.
Maybe they should stop expanding their department to provide data to the government to spy on private citizens using smart devices, and they would use those resources to fix bluetooth
Pioneer brand head units in particular I have seen Bluetooth streaming issues when paired to flagship model phones for years...even back as far as my LG G3. I got a Kenwood head unit instead, never had an issue.
As far a the Pixel XL and BT streaming...I have only had issues with dropouts zap sounds or pops, when i am out mowing my back property with my tractor...phone in pocket and BT headphones on. But my previous phones did this...most certainly due to the railroad nearby and high rise high voltage power lines and towers that are above me in that area.

Pioneer uses a cheaper bluetooth and never updates the firmware of the chips to fully support the available Bluetooth profiles even when they are developing their units and new profile updates are available. I have had a very long and annoying history with them to the point where I was in direct contact with their build team after all my complaining. That was back in 2012. Never used another of their products again. :good:
I have the same issue on my Chevy Colorado 2017. Everything works fine on Spotify on my Huawei Mate 9, and iPhone 7. It also worked fine on 7.1.2. Spotify works and music comes through but no info is displayed. I unpaired both things with no success. Frustraring.

I have not. Ill give it a shot today.
No idea if this problem is related or not but might be worth a check if you have time. First time I put Oreo on my phone it was fine. Then I screwed something up and just ADB flashed the image again. Everything was fine until I tried bluetooth a few days later. It wouldn't connect until ticking that media box many times. Then I flashed the image again and it worked fine again.
So I just got the 8.0 OTA (not on beta). I see in the dev options that it shows what BT codec it is using.
I have noticed that only the option "Bluetooth AVRCP Version:" is the only value that changin it does it stick. The other setting appear to be on auto and revert to auto depending on what device u pair supports.
My first test on my Kenwood KDC-BT762HD it paired fine and it said it was using AptX. Streamed for a few min fine. Then after I got back in the car and it auto paired, music started skipping every several seconds. I turned radio off then on to repair it and it started streaming fine again....but was using SBC according to Dev options.
When I changed AVRCP version to 1.6.....it connects and uses AptX fine. However, the radio display no longer displays the BT media metadata(title/artist), but the controls on the radio still work. I change to AVRCP ver 1.4 and that restores metadata, but then it uses SBC again. (using ver 1.5 results in SBC and no metadata).
I don't really care about the song info not being displayed on my radio....but definitely seems to be something fishy with BT in this new update.
EDIT Update: so now I am noticing it auto re-connecting and using SBC all the time now. WOnt use aptX unless i delete the device and re-pair it. then it works for a few reconnects, but then drops to sbc cagin.
Thanks for posting, I won't be updating. The Bluetooth has never been right and now seems to have regressed.

i agree and although i dont get the proper song listing on my car stereo it seems everything else is better. on nougat my BT headset i use for work all day (moto buds) would often stop connecting properly and i would make a call and have to select "phone" then "headset" again to get audio back on headset and om Oreo it happens less frequently

If you switch to a rom that uses the CAF based bluetooth (all lineageos based ones should, crDroid does for sure as that is what I use) implementation this won't happen. Still haven't been able to track down exactly why, but for now I'm sticking with CAF based ROMs to avoid this.
Do any of you guys having this issue have an Android wear watch? I've had heaps of issues with Bluetooth streaming being all "jittery" and just skipping since the update. However, I found this is basically completely fixed when I turn my android wear (LG urbane) off, or at least the Bluetooth on it.
Tried all the developer options for BT but hasn't made a difference. At the moment, my solution is turning off BT on my watch when I'm listening to music. Bit crap but it works.
I have factory reset the watch and cleared BT cache on pixel.
Any other ideas?
Is anyone else still having problems with Bluetooth on Oreo? I was hoping the official 8.1 release would help me, but I'm seeing no change. I have a Kenwood BT952HD, and experience issues similar to what the OP describes. Audio is plays fine, no unreasonable stuttering. But I get no song info, and can't skip tracks. Also, the pairing isn't as automatic. Every time I turn on the car, I have to wake the phone up, and wait for the pairing to complete, which takes longer than usual.
I've tried playing with the AVRCP settings, along with clearing registrations at both ends and repairing, with no luck. Is anyone else still seeing similar issues?
8.1 working fine with my Kenwood BT762HD. I use PowerAmp v2 alpha build 704 app.
