[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WRrobby:
Do you change songs through your phone or your controls on your steering wheel? Mine will only update if I skip tracks using the controls. It was the same when I used bluetooth using my iPhone. Seems to me it's more of a Honda issue than our phones.

My car is a 2013 Honda Accord.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smkcody:
I normally just allow the songs to auto-start when the last finishes. I will test if the

i-MiD shows the correct song info if I skip songs on the phone directly, however, I doubt

it is the car because it was working fine up until I switched to the Note 3. I have had the

car for about a year, it would be highly coincidental that the i-MiD would begin to have

issues in the hour it took to walk into a store and switch phones. Stranger things have

happened though. I am just hoping the phone is the culprit because it would be easier to fix :silly:

Hey everyone, I've been using a T-mobile Note 3 and I couldn't get the song information to pop up in my Mazda 6's display. Weird because my old Galaxy Nexus on stock 4.3 did it just fine.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Apparently that's what alot of people are seeing with multiple vehicles and models... I would like to know for the ones where the metadata is working correctly what types of vehicle and note version they are using.

At this point it looks like Samsung may have some explaining to do :) I'll take a fix though.

Finally someone else!

I am having the same exact issue with my Note 3 and VW Beetle TDI 2013. It's driving me mad. I have to change the display so it doesn't show the wrong song information.

Really hoping this gets fixed soon. I'm glad I found someone else with the same issue though, at least I know it's not just me.

Sprint Note 3 here - same issues with PlayerPro and the stock player.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DanMc85:
Agreed... I even encountered a weird issue which I resolved using root deleting files in Root Explorer...

Instead of sending my music over the Media Audio profile A2DP, it was sending it over Phone Audio profile as a HFP and the music sounded godly awful as if it was a mono phone call... I was ready to throw the phone across the room, but I since fixed it or think I did and it better not happen again...

information shows up fine for me with my Note 3 and BMW M3 in idrive when using the stock music player. But my Note 2 would even show a progress bar of the current track on my cars screen and even info from music through Spotify. Now it does not.

If I switch over to Spotify idrive continues to show me the name of the track in the stock player. Bluetooth controls continue to work though.. skip play/pause

Also via the office app in iDrive text messages are being received by the car and spoken a loud. Call log and contacts sync fine but emails and calendar info still doesnt show up, but that seems to have only worked with a blackberry.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Can you give Pandora a try and see if that works at all? "Stock" music player might be the key there and is unfortunately not a great thing to hear. That would mean that Samsung changed things on purpose instead of just not doing things quite properly. It might also mean that Samsung wont fix this issue as they purposely only implemented "their" music player correctly and said forget you to the rest of the device.

I really hope that this is just speculation and that I am wrong about that.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MarsVoltron:

T-Mobile Note 3 doesn't show any metadata in my Kenwood Stereo

Worked fine with my GS3 :(

Any ideas?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Thats the exact thing I'm seeing on my end.... No Note 3 data, works fine on my GS3....

Unfortunately this seems to be a common problem across the board. You might have some luck with Google music or default Samsung apps but not Pandora or other 3rd party players.

I just hope Samsung gets a fix out quick.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jurrel:
I have a T-Mobile Note 3 and a 2013 Subaru BRZ with stock head unit. The Bluetooth works fine for the default Samsung music app. If I use Poweramp or any other third party app, I do not get the Bluetooth tags sent properly. I do not know if this helps out here or not.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Thanks for the input. It definitely confirms my suspicions that Samsung seems to be focused on their stuff/apps first and foremost. I have also heard Google Music actually may work properly as well. The questions then remains, who needs to fix what? Is that a Note 3 issue, or did Samsung design things this way on purpose? Do app developers need to compensate for the way that the Note 3 works? Do our car manufacturers need to do the same?

I keep looking, hopefully someone will come out with a fix soon. I also hope that Samsung does not "fix" things the same way when they come out with their 4.3 updates for the S3, S4, and Note 2s....I guess we shall see in the coming months.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jurrel:
OH Something else that might be of use to others watching this thread, I used to have a Galaxy S3, and the bluetooth worked with every program I tried. However that phone was rooted. A friend has an unrooted Galaxy S3, and he has the same issue I am with the Note 3. I am wondering if rooting opens up something in the system for the aftermarket programs?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
I have an S3 as well and get the same result. I would says it's less that the S3 is modded after rooting as it just does things as intended. Meaning, that in Android 4.3 the feature was finally implemented correctly, and rooting it to a 4.3, AOSP based rom does things the way Android intended, which just works.

As we are seeing, Samsung has done things differently.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] badnews640:
I finally found others like me! I have a 2013 ford fusion with MFT. I just came from a rooted/custom rom Sprint Galaxy s3. Upgraded to the note 3.. and the metadata does not transfer. If I use the stock app its fine.. also Neutron music player works, but the interface of that app sucks. i love player pro, but itll only show the first song played and stay on it. Unless I pause it and play from the touchscreen. Texts also randomly stop showing up on the screen. A modded pandora one also does not work. Very frustrating. I also have issues playing through usb as it constantly indexes.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Thanks for confirming, welcome to the frustration club, hopefully all these issue will be addressed shortly by Samsung and or Ford soon. I think this is more on Samsungs end of things as they may have implemented things improperly in the way of AVRCP 1.3, I just hope it doesn't fall under that category of "Works as intended" as the stock music player seems to work. I use BeyondPod for podcasts 80% of my day and driving 2 hours a day for works makes it a little frustrating when I look at my display and dont see anything but "Unknown" showing up.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sec1rxg:
I jumped off sprint S4 running 4.2.2 to the Note 3 4.3 and ever since my metadata has not been working in my cars. My S4 had a custom ROM by Sac23 and all track info would show on my display, 2013 Audi A6 & a two year old Sony car receiver in my 1990 Accord. Now with the note 3 my screens is are blank. Must be a something with that low energy Bluetooth and Android 4.3. I wonder if anyone is having the same issue with the Nexus 5??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] almir001:
metadata

I have a note 3 running jellybeans and I'm having problems running meta data on my 2013 passat. Right now Google Music doesn't have a problem, but Pandora and Tune in do. I had no problems with my gnex prior running paranoid Android.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krillind8z:
I just wanted to add to this since I'm experiencing the same issue.

I have a Galaxy S4 on Sprint and when it was on 4.2.2 all of the meta data was working fine from Pandora version 5 to my Kenwood deck and in a Toyota Corolla that was a rental. While I was on the trip a few weeks ago with the rental I received the 4.3 update. After that update the meta data stopped working in the Toyota. When I got back home and tried it in my car with the Kenwood deck the same thing happened no more meta data from Pandora.

Originally it didn't work on any of the Pandora version 4s that I had. After the update to 5 is when I noticed it working.

Hopefully this information helps out some. I figured Pandora did a work around to get it working in 5 and that work around isn't working currently on Android 4.3. Hopefully someone will release an update so we can find out.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Thanks for confirming, I still have not seen any information regarding possible fixes outside of custom roms, but that is slow going due to our locked bootloader, but hopefully we will see something soon. Maybe it will get fixed with Android 4.4 sometime in January or February.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eurominican:
Sprint Galaxy Note 3 wont show info from Pandora, Spotify, tunein, etc but will from stock Samsung player, Google Play Music. Also, when playing from streaming app, it will still show last song played on music player and when skipping tracks it will show "pause"

Where did you read the problem is samsung implementation?

You cant see track names even with stock player?

Looks like in some versions of the Note 3 it does work?

Same thing happened to me on S4

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Thanks for the Update, I hope the fix stays in the release when it is made official. I know alot of people who have the Note 3 who are not interested in rooting or trying leaked code, but hopefully the fix they implemented will not only fix the metadata issues, but also the email and text message indications that are supposed to appear on our bluetoothe displays that do not currently show up on screen.

Does today's Pandora update fix anything ? I don't have 4.4 yet..
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benditzel:
#AVRCP on Galaxy S4

I'm on T-Mobile. Today's 4.4.2 update FIXED AVRCP! Pandora now displays song title info on my devices including car radio (RCD510 VW) as does Spotify, Stitcher, I-Heart, Google Music, stock app, the new Milk, and even Botifier!

My Cup Runneth Over (technologically speaking)

Also this update introduces fullscreen lockscreen music controls and album art. White notification icons grace the right side of the notification panel and a new camera shortcut option can be added to the lockscreen (at the cost of the custom picked icons in the lockscreen launcher). A new language choice is in the T-Mobile update. (Accented English for developers). The notification panel no longer displays the two separate notification categories. They are now grouped together in time sequence. Clearing notifications clears all but the ongoing notifications (ie Weather etc).

Google Wallet's tap to pay feature has been enabled on this device as well as the proprietary ISIS. I choose Google! A New NFC icon decorates the black and white notification bar whenever that feature is turned on.

Fonts appear clearer and easier to rread and the messaging app now allows a separate font size than that of the rest of the phones display. An updated Samsung keyboard is sure to give its users new features as well as some apps now displaying a rounded style for pop-up notifications (fade in /fade out).

If you had a live wallpaper on the lockscreen/homescreen before the uupdate and find your effect has been changed from ripple or light effect to a boring click lock, this is normal. Samsung 'fixed' the glitch that allowed live wallpaper and dynamic lock effects to be used simultaneously. Lock screen effect choice greyed out? Change your lockscreen wallpaper to an image and try again.

Upon downloading this update, I noticed that several apps were missing from my phone. I assumed it might be the SD card issue known with KitKat.... But some apps had widgets as well which were missing so this theory may not hold water. Either way, I reinstalled them with little trouble.

Loving KitKat!

Another data point:

Using rooted Verizon Note 3 with safestrap ROMs on 4.3. Google Play Music and Samsung Music app display metadata perfectly. All other apps, i.e. Shuttle or Poweramp are hit and miss. Poweramp is the closest, but the metadata gets stuck on the first track of an album. Subsequent songs display correctly. My vehicle is a 2014 Mazda CX-5.

Here's hoping that 4.4.2 releases continue to remedy this behavior.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vgamer4550:
Just to give everyone an update. I received the ATT Note 3 Android 4.4.2 update last week and AVRCP seems to be working as it should....FINALLY. For a few hours after the update my phone was a bit sluggish and rebooted a few times but after things settled down, the phone has been running better then ever for the last week or so.

So, that being said, I highly recommend updating if you have the option and are choosing not to root your device. Good Luck to All.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cojomojo:
Did you get it working?

Did you ever get this working? I have a Nexus 5, and a 2014 Mazda 3, so we should have the same stereo system in the car. My N5 was running stock rooted 4.4.3 and all metadata showed, and i could skip through music one by one, but texts and every other feature wasnt working. I looked in the manual for the car, and it showed AVRCP 1.4 was needed to browse the root music folder, and at least 1.3 for texts, emails, and shuffle/repeat options when playing music. I couldnt find what version of AVRCP 4.4.3 was using, so I tried Cyanogenmod 11 M7 release. Now my texts work, as well as shuffle/repeat options, BUT still no root music folder browsing, which I want so badly. I was curious if you got all the features working ever.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danieljw:
Hard to say whether I ever really got it working. I *think* 4.4.2 fixed metadata. I turned texting off so that bluetooth audio would start more quickly. (In the CX-5 system, BT audio doesn't play until contacts and SMS are synced). Texting seems to be purely dependent upon device. My Galaxy Nexus worked fine but my Note 3 doesn't, and with the Galaxy Nexus I always had best results when using vanilla Google ROMs.

Unfortunately, before I really got a chance to thoroughly test 4.4.2, I opted to install aftermarket audio. Having a universal doubledin space in the CX-5 is one of the things that swayed me over the new Mazda3's integrated audio system. On the upside, Mazda seems to be regularly updating the MazdaConnect audio, so here's hoping they can fix things for you in the future.

Sorry I don't have better news! Best wishes.

Update!

Ok so I returned the Jensen and got the Pioneer AVH-X7500BT!

Looks like this was a good idea. Bluetooth is great! Much more options.

The only question I have is …

Pandora all of the information shows up like what song it is and who is singing. But for Bluetooth neither this unit nor the other unit displayed information. I am just surprised that these decks can’t show that for 2013/2014 Decks.

I still have not un-rooted my phone and nor do I think I will now. I am just still thinking that if I update to 4.4.2 and get the new updated BT Software on my phone maybe it will transfer song information.

Can anyone verify this?

Other than the song information everything is working great on the pioneer.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Astrongtower:
Since everyone helped me out so much in this thread I thought I would give you my final findings.

I figured everything out and everything is working perfectly, thank you!

Update Update Update!

I just couldn’t believe that no App would show the music data on my deck. After seeing it work on 4.4.2 and watching different Apps work I thought I would try a ton of Apps.

To my amazement these two Apps play music folders like I want and show all music data to my car stereo deck:

Folder Player

Rocket Player

These Apps I tried play music but do not transmit any music data to my car stereo deck:

Mortplayer

KAmMa’s Folder Player

Music Folder Player Free

EX Folder Player

MFPlayer

I have no idea why the how Folder Player and Rocket Player transmit the information. But it seems I get the best of both worlds for now. I can use Rocket Player via Bluetooth and see all my folder information and keep my Note 3 rooted on 4.3. Party!

I am just wondering if I should upgrade for latest security, tower information and perks but at least I have time to think about it now.

Thanks for everyone’s help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RyanFleming:
First off I have a droid bionic running Cyanogenmod 10.1.x, which is the ICS version of Android. Since switching to this phone and installing from scratch three versions of Cyanogenmod 10.1.1, 10.1.2, and 10.1.3, I have had a problem with my custom ringtones disappearing when the SDCard is mounted as USB or on a phone reboot. Originally I had them on the external SD card in Media/Audio/Ringtones and Notifications. Then I moved them on the the Internal SD card, then I moved them into a folder on the root SDCard\Ringtones and Notifications, both on the internal and external SD Card. I even tried to copy the ringtones to the System\Media\Audio\Ringtones and Notifications but every time I reboot the phone the files disappear so apparently there is a step or two I don't understand in order to copy files onto the phone itself.

I have searched around in vain as I have not seen any solution to this problem, but have seen many users from many different phone carries and manufacturers having this problem. Again my problem specifically is that custom ringtones get replaced with unknown or in some cases a random number. When I get a phone call, text, or other notification they just remain silent as the ringtone 71999 or some other random number does not exist. Anybody know what causes this and how to fix/prevent it from happening in the future? The problem is pretty annoying.

Thanks
