Me too. Galaxy S3 and S4 work fine with a 2014 Civic. But the S6 (edge) won't show the AVRCP info.
Do you did any progress?

Nope. It's driving me nuts. I'm surprised you were the only one to chime in here. I'm not sure if this is a Spotify issue, an Android issue, or what.

Bumping this...
Does ANYONE have an S6 or have metadata working from any 3rd party music apps on a head unit, etc?
Is there a PC program for Windows that I can pair my phone with, stream to my PC, and analyze the stream for what might be going on?

Hey everyone
I have the phone about 3 weeks now and have just noticed something missing.
Up to about a week ago I had an option to show pictures and videos on my samsung d8000 smart tv and now its gone. Another thing I noticed is the samsung tv controll app has stopped detecting my tv, it previously worked perfectly displaying the tv on the phone.
Has something gone wrong? I dont think anything has changed.
open allshare app once and then you will get that option again

I know its mad. The worst thing is that it was working as the cool remote with the dual view.
First I bought the note1 and the tv app didnt work, then the galaxy nexus and that didn't work, then the S3 and that didn't work. I love this phone and it worked. And now it doesnt. Nothing is flashed or anything. Just straight out of the box

Ok so I put my tv back onto wired connection and everything is back to normal.
Its weird but if anyone comes across this issue on the same tv let me know.
Thanks for all your efforts guys

Samsung galaxy s3 on car stereo usb

Has anyone figured out a way to get their Samsung galaxy s3 working with a car stereos' USB? ( I have a jvc)
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
With your USB connection, it doesn't automatically connect? Does your stereo have Bluetooth? I use Bluetooth with my car and it works great. Give that a try if you have that capability. But with USB it should work, not sure why yours wouldn't. Rom/kernel? Maybe some more info on your phone specs...

maybe you have tried this
Have you tried settings--accessory? Make sure all of those settings are correct if you already haven't.
I've tried this before and it generally isn't something that works.
The receiver cannot determine what is music and what is not. So it ends up playing everything from music to ringtones to navigational directions. Basically any compatible format file on your external storage.
Receivers and phones are not set up to work together like this.

BT meta data not working

I use my phone to stream music to my car using BT. Note 3 worked great. So did my one plus one. The note 4 will either show no info or it will show one ong and never update. Im still testing apps but was wondering if this is a phone software problems or does the apps need to be updated to suppoer the note 4?

Mine works fine. I've only used Spotify so far.
I have used the xm app and doubletwist. Going to try Google music next. All these apps worked on my note 3 and one plus one. That's why I asked if the apps need to be updated.
Power Amp/Stock Music Player and Chevy Volt combination works, Power Amp and Honda Odyssey doesn't...haven't tried stock player on the van just yet
I have a 2014 accord.
I get that sometimes on my Note 4 in my BRZ too. This is using Google Play Music. However, the connection is more reliable than my S4 and S5 were, so I'm okay if the song titles don't come over all the time. When I use Pandora, they always update properly.
Hey its good to see someone else having this same issue, I also came from a (rooted) GS4, and everything worked flawlessly through BT, but same as yourself, I have no track info showing up for spotify or tunein radio, like I used to on my s4.
And one other thing, the buttons on my steering wheel that skipped tracks always worked for skipping tracks through anything played through BT on my s4, this no longer works on my note 4.
One other thing I did just want to mention, the track info on the car stereo screen didnt always work, for streaming apps like spotify, that is, until I believe my S4 was updated to 4.3. Never knew why. Track info on players like poweramp just playing track form phone sd card always displayed track info.
me too
Mine does this too but only with google music. Pandora and others work fine.
Pandora also works for me. I will try google music on the way home today.
I had that happen a lot on my Samsung Galaxy S5 too. But only when using Google Play Music.
So I don't think it is a Note specific issue.
Either a 4.4.4 issue (my S5 was on Verizon and on 4.4.4) or a Google Play Music issue.

stock music player and jet audio works fine on 2013 Honda Accord EXL V6
A lot more people are reporting problems with the Bluetooth and meta data, mine has been doing the same thing since day one. Also its the same with all services, rdio, Spotify, play music, tune in radio, sound cloud. I have tested in 8 cars and on my Sonos and other Bluetooth enabled devices and it's the same. I am starting to believe it's the phone. My S4, S5, and Note 1 and 3 all work without issue.
I wonder if all versions of the Note4 have this problem or if it just the ATT version. If all are having this problem then maybe samsung needs to send out and update to fix this.
Mine doesn't have this issue. In my 2012 Ford Focus with Sync, Metadata works perfectly with the stock music player and Play Music.
I used Bluetooth in my car yesterday with 3 different apps. The meta data worked 100% correctly all day.
The new version of Play Music I downloaded yesterday must have had some fixes in it, because Monday that particular app was screwing up the meta data constantly.

Mirrorlink

Does anyone know how to use Mirrorlink on Note 4? Setting is in NFC but I can't check box
Connect it to the head unit
Once you connect the phone via usb to a mirrorlink enabled device you'll be able to check the box.
Please let me know if you are able to launch the app because it just won't connect in my jvc nsx700. The app just loop crush on mine
I have a 2015 Subaru outback, the stereo has mirrorlink and it works pefectly with my wife's galaxy note 2 (pre-kitkat). When I connect my note 4 it says on the phone that mirror link is starting, but the radio never seems to recognize it. I have not had time to look into it much, but I wonder if the version of mirror link has something to do with it. I have not tried checking the box to start it. It seems like the phone automatically picks up it's connected to a mirrorlink device.
Having the same issue with AT&T Note 4 on a 6000NEX. I even get the message on my phone that mirrorlink is connected, but the screen on my deck stays black like it is trying to load.
I have a note 4 on us cell and a pioneer appradio 3. I was getting the same issues with mirrorlink. I found a post where someone had contacted pioneer and the response they got was that the note 4 uses mirrorlink 1.1 and my head unit uses 1.0 and they didn't know if or when they would update the firmware. I suspect this is the issue for anyone trying to use mirrorlink with the note 4. Sometimes it sucks having the latest and greatest. I do have mine working with a mhl adapter and have full screen mirroring on my head unit. I just hate having all the clutter and would love to just have one usb cable.

Just look for appradio unchained reloaded. Root, a permissive selinux kernel, and that app. You can have full touch mirroring on your pioneer app radio and nex rads

I have the same combo Galaxy Note 4 with the AVH-X7700BT AND i GET THE ERROR MESSAGE "RESET SMART DEVICE".
The Note4 does work with Appradioone after you update the firmware on the X7700. But it will not launch directly to Mirrorlink to mirror the smartphone directly.
I'm guessing that there has been no progress made on this?
I've got a Tmo Note 4 with a Pioneer x2700BS. I get the "Reset Smart Device" message.
I think that you might need a MirrorLink app first, but I tried to load one on there (MiRoamer) to see if it would do anything. The phone says that the app is certified, but the head unit doesn't do anything.
This is a Samsung issue. The s5 is receiving lollipop update with mirrorlink and doesn't work either. The s4 mini, note 4 and note edge were removed from the approved devices list on the mirrorlink site a few days ago. We need to be pushing Samsung on this issue.

I have a Pioneer AVH-x7700bt and the Note 4 and no luck either.
I believe it to be a ver 1.1 vs 1.0 issue , even though this https://cert.mirrorlink.com/ProductListing/ says they are both ver 1.1!!!
Mirrorlink works under the Lollipop update for the Note 4.
However, you need a Mirrorlink app to use it. An example is miRoamer.
There's only a few, and they all kinda suck.
Hi! Install Apps miRoamer, Glympse, iCoyote, Audioteka, and Parkopedia for MIrrorLink usage.
With Note 4 after the MirrorLink connection established you have to install the Car App, then on the MirrorLink menu on the HU the Certified Apps are shown.
If somebody have time to do this installations please test the apps while driving. And give a feedback regarding driver distractions.

No luck here. I installed miRoamer on my Note 4. In the mirror link settings on the phone the app is listed as a certified app. when I connect the the phone to the car it shows the "phone is connected using mirror link" but nothing happens on the car display. The only thing I see missing from what I have done, was install the Car App. I'm not sure what you meant by the car app.
Hi,
The connection between my NOTE 4 and my car radio device (Volkswagen POLO, with MIRRORLINK) was very difficult until yesterday...
Before yesterday, when my phone was connected with Mirrolink, i was able to see applications (only ones fully compatible)...but when i started one, screen was black and nothing appeared!
Until Yesterday, after 1 day by my Car Seller (and after a software update of my car stereo device), Mirrolink is fully compliant with my NOTE 4!!!
So, if you have any problem of black screen, ask your manufacturer if an update exists...that could be a solution!
Hey guys something new? I got the new firmware 8.40 for Pioneer Avh-x7700bt in Germany and my note 4 is latest update too. Doesn't work there was something new, new screen with "searching mirror link" and two monitors on my note 4 but failed after searching again nothing. Both are now mirror link 1.1 I thought my avh-x7700bt is broken but if all of you have the same problem. And the app doesn't work.

Smartview Not Mirroring Properly

I think Samsung borked something up in Android 10. or at least in its Smartview app. I am unable to mirror to a Miracast WiFi adaptor, nor to a Miracast enabled TV. I enabled Miracast on a Sony TV and connected my Note 10+ to it. It connected to the TV, but it is not mirroring my phone's screen. It will show my photos and videos I have in Gallery, but it won't cast a video from Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video, or Movies Anywhere. I tried it with a Microsoft Wireless Display Adaptor and got the same results.
My Galaxy Tab S5e has no problems mirroring to a Miracast TV or Miracast wireless adaptor. I connected and mirrored my Tab S5e to the exact same devices my Note 10+ connected to. I had no problems playing content from the same apps that I tried on my phone. My Tab S5e is running Android 9
Before I upgraded to Android 10, I had no problems mirroring my phone screen using Miracast.
I have tried rebooting my phone, clearing the cache on both Smartview and the phone, and clearing the data on Smartview. I have also reset my network connections on my phone.
You might have it in Dex mode instead of mirror mode

How do you try to mirror your screen?
Because i go in smart view and from there in smart things. There i have the option to mirror my screen on to my TV.

That is correct. It connects to the TV and Miracast adapter, and shows a borked up version of my phone's screen.

Yes. I've even tried a couple 3rd party Miracast mirroring apps and got identical results. Samsung borked up something either in Smartview or Android 10. I'm thinking Smartview is the problem.
I just tried it on my Samsung smart TV and got identical results. I couldn't get it to mirror properly on three different devices: a Sony TV, a Microsoft Wirelles Display Adaptor, and a Samsung Smart TV. It could be an issue with DeX, but I can't find where to check.

I just discovered that my Samsung TV won't mirror to my phone. When I try to mirror from TV to phone, all I get is the audio. I don't get the picture. Before upgrading to Android 10, I could watch what was on my TV on my phone (comes in handy when I am in the kitchen).

Yes. As well as clearing app cache and app data for Smart View. And it is a fact that my phone is not screen mirroring properly, not an opinion.

I think Smart View is a buggy thing. My phone won’t connect unless the source is set other than HDMI 1 (Sky). Even then I can’t set it to watch TV on my phone.
For me, the most annoying is the fact that I can’t zoom in while playing video in Smart View, like I can when playing it on the phone. Every time I try, I get the error on phone: “Zoom is not supported for this video size (176 x 144)” I’ve no idea what that means, whether it’s to do with Smart View, the Video Player or the TV its self.
Has anyone tried it?
My 10+ won't mirror, but my galaxy tab 4 works perfect.
Maybe it is the phones. Maybe it works flawlessly with Samsung TVs only.

You are not alone brother! I am having same issue with my a70 after android 10 upgrade. Thank you.
Looks like Sammy is deprecating Smart View come October so likely not going to be investing much in fixing defects.
Btw, I also tried it using both One UI and Microsoft Launcher and neither worked. I'm wondering if it is because of DRM.
