Hi Guys.
I am quite new to the XDA website, and i have searched high and low for a thread with a solution to what I am looking for.
I I am currently using a Galaxy S4, and I have installed versions of the Walkman App dating back to April/May 2014 that had Music Unlimited integration built in. But because the app was outdated, it would refer me to Update Centre to update the app before I could successfully sign in and use the Music Unlimited Integration. Otherwise the app was working fine.
I have searched the internet high and low for a newer version with working Music Unlimited but i cannot find it anywhere. Everything seems to be the music player itself rather than the Music Unlimited functionality. Has anyone got any suggestions?
Again, this needs to be latest version of the app on either respective Xperia Z phone (i dont really have a preference)
I am currently Un-rooted and on standard Kitkat build for the S4.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
Hey
So I took delivery of my new Vauxhall Crossland X with Android Auto yesterday. Its great to have a headunit that will work with android auto. However I have a very annoying issue.
Nav, calls and spotify work without issue. However I have recently switched to google play music. Now the app opens and when you press play the track starts progressing and you can see the time line moving, however no sound is coming through.
If I change to spotify it works without issue and I can listen to music, albeit in a lesser sound quality (in my opinion) .
Has anyone else found a fix for this issue?
Appreciate your help.
Best wishes
Andy
AFAIK there's sadly no solution for this yet. I can't post links yet because I'm haven't posted much yet, but if you google for "Play music not working on android auto" you'll find a thread in the Google product forums.
Seems to be a Huawei specific problem...
It most certainly is a Huawei issue for which they have no answer. My issue isn't with Android Auto but the Google play music app is glitchy on my car stereo. The album art is from the first song that played the first time I connected the phone to my car and it hasn't changed since. The native music app and spotify have no such issue. I think it has to do with the lack of integration. The play music app's colour should match the album art in the drop down (since Oreo 8.0) but it's just a big orange box. There's definitely something wrong with Huawei's play music.

Installing equalizer from Play store (equalizer by Smart Android apps) make sure eq is ON, and stays on, skip to next song and now Android Auto works.
But first:
Remove and clear data from Android Auto, reboot
Clear all Bluetooth devices from car, and under system in your car remove Android Play devices.
Clean fresh set-up.

Wow, this finally seemed to fix it. I installed the app and reset the Android Auto settings and it's now working again. Thanks a lot!
I gave up before seeing this last post - I sold my p20 pro and bought a pixel 2 xl - have to say it worked straight away and the sound quality on android auto is better too. Gutted Ive lost the p20 pro camera as that was amazing but its nice to have a clean stock phone again. Lets hope the pixel 3 xl has the 3 camera setup that my p20 pro had.
Do I have to leave equaliser on permanently or just for the initial reset of android auto?

EQ option turns on automatically everytime I open Google music
Same issue with Oneplus 6 and Vivo V9. Apart from plethora of issues this issue is the most annoying.
Other issues- Music stops playing and then suddenly resume from beginning of song, Blank screen, no voice control(it used to work before), Whatapps messages are not read(used to work before)
When you try and send a message through voice does it go "uh, something went wrong"?
I have an OP 6T with android auto but not mirrorlink, my car audio has both.
I didn't like android auto because it can't call on whatsapp or play audio messages as well as it can't play my music by folder.
As some rare roms like Omnirom add mirrorlink support, it looks purely software, meaning we can install it in any android rom.
So any one knows how Omnirom added mirrorlink to add it in other roms?
Do you mean play local music? If you want to do it through android auto, PowerAmp works in Android Auto.
Also, in your Android Auto settings, turn off "Lock phone while driving" and you can play anything you want through Android Auto.

I forgot about poweramp, didnt know it was compatible.
Tried it and it rocks!
At last I can browse per folder.
Another bonus is that I can boost volume in my car, dunno why android auto is too quiet out of the box, tried v4a and dolby but none worked with AA, only poweramp
Hi guys, I recently made a big upgrade in my car sound system and switched to an Android head unit. A PX6 10-in screen octa-core 8 GB RAM 64 GB ROM unit. I like many other people have discovered the pitfall of these stereo units. What little Bluetooth functionality you have is accessed awkwardly through the phone app menu. I can deal with that but what I can't deal with is the Bluetooth audio app is only accessible from the built-in launcher. If you use another launcher you cannot access the app drawer that the Bluetooth audio app is located in along with a handful of other preloaded proprietary apps that cannot be reached from the primary app drawer. Does anyone else have this problem and has anyone else come up with a solution? I have attached pictures of the installed unit with car web guru launcher a picture of the proprietary app drawer and a picture of the accessible app drawer.
I tried to do a workaround by hot-spotting to my head unit and running Pandora and Spotify on the head unit rather than from the phone and those apps will not work on a hotspot connection for some reason.
I've Vivo Tws2 earbuds, all work well until Origin OS 3 update.
Now earbuds works but if I open app settings from app it autoclose.
Now i cant able to set audio effect, level of reduction ecc.. Only to see battery level.
The strange thing is that there is two app. International from Play store and another that is like an hidden app preinstalled that I find in Vivo store that receiving updates from vivo.
Some time ago the two app was opening simultanesly and all work well.
