Bluetooth question for the car guys

[dalejoel]

Kamintar, one more question. When you stream Google music via bluetooth, can you get yours too show the artist, album or song name on the face of the receiver? I can get this to display from tuner,disc and aux, but can't figure it out when streaming. I am thinking it can't since it's streaming from the internet and not the device

Swyped from my Galaxy Nexus!

You will not see that metadata about artist, song title because the Galaxy Nexus does not support the correct version of AVRCP. Version 1.3 is what you need to get that information. GNex supports an earlier version that allows the head unit to control the phone (i.e. switch songs by pushing the forward/backward/pause etc buttons). I hope that they will support it with a future update. I saw that the company which makes Google's chosen bluetooth stack now support AVRCP 1.3, so I'm crossing my fingers it will show up on a version revision one day.

The thing I want to know is whether or not the GNex support streaming mp3 directly over Bluetooth using an optional protocol supported inside of A2DP. Or does it re-compress the mp3 yet again to post over the basic A2DP protocol, thus hurting the sound quality yet further?

Anybody had any issues with phone calls, i have a kenwood bt100 and if i try to end the call, it will not go of the call screen i think it may send the wrong signal to the phone and cause it to go into funny mode, considering upgrading to the bt200 or 300

Does anyone have a recommendation for a decent double din unit that streams BT for less than $500? Looking at the Pioneer AVH-P2400BT on Crutchfield.

I've successfully paired my Samsung Galaxy Nexus GSM phone with my Ford Fusion Sync system. I'm running the Android 4.0.4 that came with the phone although I have rooted it, but still running the standard bootloader.

Normally everything works fine and when I start the car the GNex auto-connects. Once or twice a week the connection will not start. I've tried doing a "hot-reboot" but that doesn't help. If I do full re-boot, the phone immediately auto-connects. My previous phone, an LG Optimus V, never had a problem with Bluetooth connections.

Has anyone had similar issues?

I'm thinking about installing reboot scheduler and see if that will tame this issue:

Any thoughts?
