It could, depending on whether the BT stack has changed. The Wizard uses the Microsoft BT stack, so it should be the same amongst the various carrier ROMs within a AKU version.

So has anyone considered switching to S4?

Just wondering if there are HTC One users who wished they had bought an S4. Why?

I have. Bluetooth audio is distorted in my car with the HTC One. Really a pain in the butt since now I have to use the Aux cable and can't skip songs using the controls on my deck.
The S2, S3, and Note2 all worked fine with my car. :crying:

Did Whompasaurus come with the kernel or did you flash it after the fact?

I may, because the phone tends to get "stuck" on 1X or 3G and refuse to go to 3G or 4G even if there is a strong signal available. I usually have to toggle data to fix it and it's getting annoying. Other phones, including the S4, do not seem to have this problem.
Apart from that the One is pretty much flawless, so I'm just waiting until the end of the 14 days to see if the irritation of constantly switching data off and on gets to me.

Awesome! I'm running Viper right now. I'll trying flashing over that and see what happens!!

Not at all...this is actually the first phone I haven't had any issues with. Not even considering rooting right now just b/c everything works...HTC One ftw

Had the S4 for less then a week before I brought it back and exchanged it for the ONE. Best decision I have made during my 14 years with Sprint. Didn't like the feel or performance (in my area) of the S4 at all. Lots of reception issues, dropped calls etc. Plus the phone just felt "cheap"

Try updating your prl and profile I was stuck just one time and that did the trick this is a sprint issue not HTC
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium

Would never switch to the s4, I have used the s4 extensivly. I updated to viper 1.1.0 and no issues with the back and home button anymore, big thanks to viperboy for all his work. Also a huge factor for me is the front speakers, makes the whole phone experience that much better.

I have both. Im using the s4 but still play with the htc one. I bought both off craigslist for a really good price. They are both amazing phones. I cant decide which to keeo. I love the sexy design of the htc one. The speakers are amazing and i love the music app. I really love fact it downloads the cover art automatically. Then the S4. I love the bigger screen. I love touchwiz. I love the fact it has more features. I looooove the meny button being stationary and not different places dependin on what app your using. The fact is there both amazing phones. I think samsung listened to the consumers complaints about the s3 and note 2 and did its best to put out a product wed all love. I think htc listened to the complaints about tue htc one and the one x and did there best. I lean towards the galaxy only bc all my tablets are samsung and my fiance has the s4 so im just more comftorable with touch wiz. But the htc is super quick very snappy if you know what i mean lol. Uuuughhhhhh which one do i keep!!!!! Lol

Did both of those at least a dozen times, but the issues are still present. It may be a sprint problem, but it only affects the One. My old HTC Arrive did not have these issues, and neither do the s3 or s4.

Try repairing at the longest possible distance while the car is running so it hunts for the best BT channel. Start far enough away so that it fails. Then get closer until it works.
Bluetooth works great for me, finally since it was awful on the EVO 4G LTE. Only problem is voice command prompt volume is too low.

Huh.... I'll have to give this a shot.
Does any one know of any programs that monitor the Bluetooth connection so I can see if it changes channels or even something where I can force it to change?

I have been having the same issue with the LG Optimus G here in KC. It is a network issue. It is how the phone trades off between 3G and 4G. I will be on 3g and my wife is on 4g at the same time. There shouldn't be a difference between S4 and One. They have the same modem.

Already did and I'm happy

First one to 64GB on Sprint gets my business (for the S4, that means 64GB +64GB SD Card).

Uconnect Bluetooth streaming and my Verizon LG G2

I have used a IPhone 4S, Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S4 and now my new LG G2. All the other phone have been perfect for streaming music through Bluetooth except for the LG G2. The music plays really slow and the songs skip about every 5 to 10 seconds.
I am not trying to complain and in about 2,000 miles I will be getting a oil change so there might be updates for my cars Bluetooth. In the mean time I am using a audio cable to listen to my music thru my car stereo.
Anyone with simular experiences with their Uconnect. I have a 2013 Dodge Dart Rallye with the basic stereo not the touch screen.

This is because Uconnect is not compatible with the G2, or vice versa, I constantly check the Uconnect website for updates but have none so far.

Yeah, I kind of figured! Oh well, I love my G2 and my Dart...even if they don't play well together. Bluetooth calling seems flawless though...it seems to be just streaming that glitches out.

I would recommend installing CM11 and see if that fixes it. CM team use different kernels and drivers. Might solve it. Seems like a lot of work and risk losing LG specific features though.

If you're on 4.2.2 isn't it a defect in Android specific to music streaming over blue tooth? I have a 2014 Ram 1500 and BT works perfectly for phone on uConnect but not for music. I am just hoping 4.4.2 drops for the G2 soon as I think that will fix it

I would rather walk than drive a Ford. My wife had a Ford lemon and I had a Mercury lemon...

I have a 2013 Dodge Avenger and BT streaming works fine for me.

Is your phone rooted or stock? Do you know what stereo you have? Mine is just the base model.
I have had no problem with any other phone I have tried.

Weak bluetooth range

Streaming Bluetooth audio to my LG soundbar works only within 6-7 feet, everything beyond it gets choppy frequently.
I did the same experiment with an older ipad2, sgs2 and the newer Nexus 7 2013. All worked fine within the soundbars specs, 30ft. The nexus actually stretched it the furthest, I streamed from my second floor with only one slight interruption.
Is it that my phone is faulty or is just the compatibility with this exact soundbar? Are there settings or other means to improve the bt signal/range?

is your phone stock or custom recovery / rom

Viper rom latest with elementalx 18.0. Also on latest sense fw.
I will definitely try it again with stock kernel although I doubt it's a kernel issue. I might try perhaps a different radio but if anyone knows a proven way to make it work.. I surely appreciate any input on this.

Using a RUU back to stock always worked on my AT&T M7
I seemed to have that problem when using the Developer Edition software versions

In case someone experiences the same issue and hopefully before rma-ing his/her soundbar, I isolated the issue to the custom kernel I was using. As soon as I reverted to stock I could take my phone 30ft or more without a single hiccup.

Anybody else's metadata not working with head units?

Mine doesn't work with note 4. Specifically a '14 civic si. Curious to know if anybody else's factory head unit or aftermarket stopped sending metadata once you got note4. It works fine with my HTC m8 but I'd rather not resort to carrying both to have metadata. BTW, this is important thread. There are a couple or thread on code.google.com about avrcp and metadata not working right on a few phones since 4.4.

Same here. 2012 Mazda 3.
I had the issue with my LG G3 as well, but not my Oneplus.
Hopefully this is fixed with 5.0.

Not displaying in my '15 Optima, but at least it plays, better than my last car.

G3 is also common phone with this problem. There is a fix for Spotify in app store though. Still can't find a good thread about this issue if it's strictly android or OEM related or both.

Same
I don't have a solution, but I'll add in my experience...
2013 Mazda 3 with the bose system.
I had a Galaxy S3 and it worked perfectly with the car's controls and displaying album info on the dash.
I just upgraded to the Note 4 and the controls work, but I can't get album info anymore.
The S3 was up to date as much as I could get it- Android 4.4.4 with the latest music apps available. The Note 4 is also 4.4.4. The default music app does look a bit different, but I also tried Google Play Music. I played with as many settings as I could with no luck. It just doesn't display the song it's playing.
Supposedly this is because the Note 4 is using AVRCP 1.4 while the head unit is 1.3?

You have to send e mails and call and contact anyway possible. The factory units don't get updated unless the factory leans on the radio builder to make a software update. Phones get upgraded and so should radio to support the latest phones.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Everything works for me. 2013 Toyota Tundra. Get song and album info. Spotify works as well. Worked on my Note 3 before and works the same now with the Note 4.

I'm having the same issue with my 2012 Mazdaspeed 3, my Note 3 worked fine, Now I have the Note 4 I get no song or album info.

Yeah sucks. Using my my HTC m8 still as that is my main mode of music anyways. Still would rather my note4 work correctly instead of forgetting my m8 occasionally. Still can't find out if this is Samsung's fault or both Samsung and Honda.

I'll add to this and bump. 2014 Dodge Ram. No meta data on Uconnect head unit. My note 3 on my Verizon line displays just fine. It's definitely note 4 or latest android specific.

Has anyone heard anything further about a possible fix for this?

Nope.

I too have a 14 Si, is yours a coupe or sedan? Also, I just jumped to the Note from a G3 and it worked prior to that. Could it be dependant on Android Version? I can't remember exactly but I want to say the G3 had 4.4.2

Coupe. DBP. m8 is on the 4.4.3/4 version. Was gonna convert to gpe again but HTC dropped the ball twice this week. I am guessing it's on Samsung side now. Everything call related has been very inconsistent and it's starting to get on my nerves.
