[Q] Does HTC One support AVRHCP v1.3 - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
Can anyone confirm if the One supports AVRCP v1.3 or above?
Ie when paired with a compatible BT device such as in car head unit, does it show track information?
I currently have a One X and it does not with all Sense ROMs which is really annoying.
Thanks

Has anyone with a BT equipped car streamed music from their HTC One?
Can you please let me know if you get the track/artist info on the head unit or just 'BT Audio'?

Did you ever find an answer to this? I just asked the same thing...

Has anybody tried to connect an HTC One to a car bluetooth stereo to see if you get artist and song info on the screen?

I've connected my one to my Bluetooth headunit. I've only used it with deezer though as I don't use stock music. It does show some information using feeder so don't see why it wouldn't with stock player as the Bluetooth stack obviously supports it. I'll try it with stock next time I'm in my car and let you know.

Sorry for the late reply. Checked this the other day and can confirm this definitely works on stock music player. Shows artist, album and track name on my Sony Bluetooth headunit.

It's very spontaneous, but it works. I'm using the stock player and I often get full info and skipping control. Occasionally it doesn't display anything, or it won't update, but I believe that's because of Android.

This mostly has to do with the kernel, not the specific phone itself

I ended up getting the One. V happy.
Yes track info is displayed with stock music player.
Annoyingly, Pandora shows the title of the first track that is on the phone rather than what it is playing...
Yes I know that the kernel is responsible for the bt profile that the phone supports but with my one x HTC decided to use a proprietary bt stack rather than the android provided one resulting in this feature not working

Apps I've found so far using my One that support AVRCP 1.3/song metadata: HTC Music app, Google Play Music, XiiaLive Pro. (Was really stoked to see support with XiiaLive Pro)! :good:
So awesome to finally have a decent Android phone right OOB that supports this feature!

What car stereo has the best Android integration?

I've been using a jvc for a while but I'd like to find something a bit nicer that works better with Android.
Tips?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I don't know what you mean by Android integration, but this is an Android powered stereo that I REALLY like the look of. It's a good start anyway...

More controlof my phone features. Right now my deck us basically just a stereo bt headset

I stick with aux input now.
I used to have a clarion that was made for the iPhone. I hated having to go to the actual head unit every time I wanted to change a song, scrolling to the artist, selecting the artist, selecting album, selecting song all while driving.
And then it was slightly annoying when people would be in the passenger seat and couldn't figure out the controls.
So I sold it and just got a different unit with an aux cable.
Way easier, I think.

Skips - Bluetooth Streaming Audio

Streaming audio with Bluetooth to the Sync Audio system in my Ford Fusion, I get periodic skips. Seems to occur when other things are happing in background. When I use audio cable there are no skips.
Seems like a problem with Bluetooth process priority in process stream. Anyone know if there is more then one Bluetooth standard?
I like bring able to get into car and have my paused Bluetooth streaming audio restart. Don't want to bother with cable when running errends in my car.

I was having the same problems with sync in my mustang, Im rooted, and installed shift3r 2.3 (on droidforums.net) and now its virtually flawless.
2011 Explorer w/ SYNC here, not getting any skips w/ Bluetooth audio. Just did an 36hr road trip from FL to MI and back and didn't have any issues. Stock unrooted Bionic.

It's an issue with the way bionic processes A2DP.
Not all A2DP devices are the same.
It's not that the bionic's Bluetooth is flawed. It's that Motorola did not make it compatible with certain A2DP device profiles.
Ironicly, the A2DP in the Bionic is compatible with all the Motorola A2DP devices.
...coincidence, I think not.
A lot of the newer Bluetooth devices are compatible with the bionic and don't have problems.
That's the short answer.

Not sure what droidth3ory did for shift3r 2.3.1, but like I said, my bluetooth has been amazing since using it.

App to control music player through car stereo

Is there any app or hardware I can buy to control my music on my phone through my CD player so I can skip songs on my actually CD player that's played through my phone???
Sent from my XT875 using XDA App
I doubt it.
There are so many Android Phone / hardware configurations and just as many car stereos that I don't think you will have much luck finding anything that will do what you want.
I know the iPhone/iTouch have hardware like that but there's a bigger market and more standardized hardware to achieve that.
Improved Voice controls on the phone would be a better bet for app developers to work on.
I know you can say "Listen to Dark Side of the Moon" and the song will queue up but, as far as I know, you can't say "Skip, Pause, Volume Up, Volume Down".
That would be cool.
I just basically want to control my music play on my phone with my car stereo not really talking about voice actions

I'm not sure if this will help you, there are FM modulators that you can use to stream the audio from your phone to your car stereo.

No I have a aux cable to my phone that would just make it wireless thanks though

Try Googling android car stereo or something like that. You may have to get a more high tech CD player that has Bluetooth capabilities.
Sent from the Evil Empire
Need a Bluetooth audio connection to your head unit, and a head unit that has Bluetooth audio control features. Sync by ford allows this, but i'm sure aftermarkets will too.
An audio cable does not have this functionality in any way.

Ya I figured there would be a combination of aandroud app and a 20 dollar device I can purchase to make this happen other than a expensive new head unit
Sent from my XT875 using XDA App
Maybe just maybe there is a handsfree phone device that could control the music player.... Not sure on that.

yeah moto has one but it doesn't play throught the car stereo system whitch it what i am trying to do i guess i might just have to pick up a ipod touch
I have an iPod Nano just because of how it interfaces with my Pioneer head unit. You can't beat the iPod controls on newer car stereos. I hope Android gets there eventually!
Look for gesture control (proximity sensor control) in the market place.

Kenwood makes head units that, when coupled with a Kenwood app for smartphones, allows you to control the phone from the head unit. Very cool.

I bet you could take a pair of those headphones that have the controls built in (Beats or something? The ones for HTC phones, maybe I'm wrong but I saw a picture somewhere where the headphone cable had next/prev and vol up/down buttons) and splice it into your AUX cable and be good to go.
Found another thread on XDA discussing this as well (for a different phone, but still most likely applies in this case): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=817287&page=2
New Ford cars actually have the technology to do this. Not sure about other companies but my dad just got a new ford truck that can sync up to apps on your phone via usb or bluetooth and I looked it up and just about all new Fords do it.
yeah i want it too pretty sweet but... i can afford a brand new truck otherwise i wouldn't be discussing other options lol.. i was just go buy one ha ha ..

[BT] Track Info Display

Halo guys, I guess there are lots of Nexus users here own a bluetooth headset.
After updating to 4.2.1, anyone successfully display the track info on the headset?
I have a smart wireless headset pro and tried with few roms and no luck.
I am wondering if this a rom issue? Anyone with a success can share your rom(kernel) on your Nexus and the bluetooth headset you have got?
Thanks.
Cheers,
L
What you are looking for is AVRCP 1.3 which is not supported by Google yet. So even if you have support for it in the ROM (cm supports it) you will still need a modified version of Pandora, Google play etc or find an app that does support it.
Your headset is the 3rd piece of the puzzle. Hope this helps

Thx buddy, I have done some Google work about AVRCp also.
Another interesting thing is I successfully display the Track Info once, but it failed again after i reboot my headset
For the reconnect issun, I get a App from Play store and solved the problem. It seems that bluetooth is buggy in Jellybean, much better in Gingerbread.

[REQUEST] HTC CAR app with google play music support)

Hi everyone,
I have a request if any developer is willing to do it (I would try if only i was skilled enough...)
I am using the HTC car app a LOT, used to have carhome but I find the native HTC app home much more responsive and intuitive...
Plus I love sense Thing is, I noticed the music widget only works with the HTC music app.
I would like to be able to listen to my online music collection with google play music, and be able to control the player with the widget on the Car app home... Would it be possible? Is there a way to achieve this?
Thanks!
This would be great!
Also interested, and very interesting would be a mirrorlink support for htc CAR App!

I found a couple of posts or articles on the internet about people who would like this feature (apparently it was possible on sense 4) but nothing specific on how to achieve this on sense 5. Any help or advice if I throw myself in this quest?
Just a little up ?
