Radio stations that I create myself based on an artist or song correctly display in Android Auto (2015 Hyundai Sonata) and play without issue. Radio Stations that are curated do not display properly by the title of the station, in Android Auto. A random song or artist is listed as the title instead and when attempting to play that station Google Play Music app only the phone crashes and an error is received in the car unit.

Hey Guys -
Here's a link to my first app published in the Play Store. Looking for feedback, as well requests for supported music applications.
Play Store Link to Tuneification
Tuneification is a companion app for music lovers. Tuneification announces the current artist and song title by speaking the track information when the track starts playing. The app is perfect for running, working out at the gym, mowing the lawn etc.
In addition to introducing the current track, Tuneification keeps a history of the last 500 songs that you played, color coded for each supported application. Go back in time and see what you were listening, and what service you were using at the time.
Tuneification fully supports Hangouts (with Google Voice), and the stock messaging app from Google. Have your hangouts or text messages read aloud while driving, working out, etc...

first !!
will test and report
:good:
I'm running a Sprint Nexus 6 with a home build of CM 12.1 (base CM 12.1 with some minor cherry picks, but currently none involving Bluetooth). I drive a Honda Fit LX (base model without the touchscreen and integrated Pandora). When I stream audio to my car via Bluetooth on any audio app other than Pandora, the song's metadata (title, artist, album) is displayed. Pandora refuses to display the data. The other apps that I've tried that work are Amazon Music, Music, Play Music, Spotify, and even my podcast app Pocket Casts. All of these show proper metadata. Other AVRCP functions do work within Pandora, such as play, pause, and skip. I have even go so far as to use Pandora Patcher to force AVRCP functionality. I haven't used it for any of its illicit functions (I'm a Pandora One sub), so please don't discuss those here or provide links for Pandora Patcher, as they're against forum rules.
I plan to revert to stock temporarily to see if it's an issue with the Pandora app or CM's Bluetooth implementation. I was wondering if anyone else was seeing this issue, whether they we also using CM or another ROM, and most importantly if anyone would happen to have a fix.
So when I'm connected to my AVH-4100NEX, audio from Spotify works. Is this actually transmitting the audio over Bluetooth (and not USB)?
When connected, I noticed I cannot play Media audio from other apps. Why is this? Any way to get all Media audio to play when connected as Android Auto?
So far, the only advantages I'm seeing for using Android Auto vs Bluetooth audio are: Maps on screen, prettier Spotify on screen, Google Now on unit. I could do most of this with the phone itself over just Bluetooth.
Don't get me wrong, I really like it and this receiver, but it seems more limited. Perhaps it's for safety, but it's not all that much safer. In Spotify, you can't scroll through all of your library or lists "for safety", but who's to say that my passenger isn't scrolling?
I too have a 4100nex. I think music is played over Bluetooth. One way to know for sure is to disconnect the usb while it's playing.
As you said, you can't play music from other apps. There is a list of compatible apps that work with Android Auto. If it's not on that list, you can't use it. I didn't like the viewing restrictions on Google play music so I use an SD card for all of my music. I like Google maps and the texts over voice so for me, I like Android Auto for those reasons.
There is an app....... something reloaded. I can't think of the name but it will allow you to basically mirror your phone to the screen and you can access all of the apps. Good luck.
Hi.
Looking for an installabel apk of this Joying launcher with the turntable widget
Second question: Is there a radio app with RDS in widget? On launcher screen there is no RDS name only the station frequenz
that turntable shows up when you play songs from the built in Joying music player, then go back to the home screen. Do you have a Joying?
No got a erisin 3015.
Well I assume that is baked into the Joying ROM. That is their widget that shows the time normally. If you play music in the Music Player it will show the turntable, if you play music via the Bluetooth app, it will show the Bluetooth icon and controls
edit to add- it will show the Radio as well, not sure if it shows RDS, i think it just shows the station number, but I never use the radio
I'm thinking of buying an aftermarket AA head unit. I use Amazon Music and want to use voice commands to play a playlist while driving. I want to say "Hey Google Play My Playlist (or whatever the name of the playlist) on Amazon Music" Does this work? Searching these forums seems to indicate that it doesnt. When I send that command to my Android Phone, it launches Amazon Music but doesnt start playing the playlist that I specified.
