Currently I am on SUpernexus build 5 and i cannot have the track info display on my MW600 bluetooth headset unlike if I use iPod Touch. I tried searching on threads for Supernexus 5 but it doesn't say there anything about AVRCP support. Is there another rom similar to this one that supports AVRCP 1.3 or up? I used Google Play Music, Walkman and poweramp on my SG I9100 but no luck. The same is also true for my XPeria Neo on ICS 4.04.

I'm investigating a bluetooth car stereo and need to know if the S2 supports AVRCP version 1.3. Does anybody know?

Thanks - answered my question perfectly!
So does it work? Meaning display songs title and artist to AVRCP 1.3 decks?
I am curious, if it does support AVRCP 1.3, does it display the artist information, track name and what not?
Anyone been able to confirm this working? I believe it does rely on the application providing the information to the AVRCP system - anyone discovered what, if any, apps do this?
I can confirm the S2 does support AVRCP 1.3 (only with the standard "Music" Player, not with Winamp)
My Samsung Galaxy S2 (bought this afternoon) was connected with my JVC KD-R801 car radio. While streaming via "Music" app, the car radio displayed some meta info (artist, song title etc). While streaming via Winamp, there was no show on the display.
The S2 has a stock rom, based on android 2.3.5

Are u sure about this.. According to what I found Android supported avrcp v1.0 because they use BlueZ bt stack.. At the time of ICS they didn't have support for v1.3.. In the meantime BlueZ is updated with AVRCP v1.3 target role, but ICS didn't update BT stack..
2nd question I wanted to ask because of this confusion.. (if u can use it I am not sure what google included in their system anymore).. Can u try to connect to head unit and control it (use your mobile as remote), play, stop, pause, next, prev..
Can u please give some feedback about this.. Thanks

This functionality broke with the ICS update and as Ghannes pointed out, only worked using the stock music player. I tried other players even the Google Play player and none of them streamed the music data over BT. I reverted my phone back to stock GB and confirmed that this functionality broke with the ICS update - even with the stock music player. Although, on ICS, only the stock music player detects shuffle and repeat controls from my car stereo (worked on GB as well). All players can detect the skip controls from my car both on GB and ICS.
well thats sad then.. Last week I upgraded to ICS stock and yesterday I ordered a mw600..
But what I am learning from oinkylicious link in the second post above is that bluetooth.org says sgs2 supports AVRCP1.3..
Confusing..
Of corse it cant tell if its broken!
Alright..
Got my MW600.
Everything working perfectly fine.. Esp. The screen.. Shows me the song title and the number I am getting a call from..
I have a GT-i9100G with Stock ROM, ICS 4.0.3
Has anybody used the nokia N8 headphones on the one x.I personally like the fully functional remote which comes in the N8 headset!
I think the model number is WH 701.....so can anybody help me?
I had that headset, but i dont have hox. I've try that headset on many android device, me and my friends, eg with galaxy ace, xperia live walkman, xperia neo v, xperia arc, htc sensation, and those music playback control buttons doesnt work.
Cant remember where, but i've read somewhere that android only supports music playback control with only a button, with single click, double click etc, thus stock oem android headset only got one button.
Why has the feature to use the Galaxy Player 4.2 or 3.6 as a Bluetooth headset not been ported over to the other players?
Well, some people worked on this, but easier said than done I suppose. I still think it would be a killer feature, but I don't really know where to start in porting it over.

Hi
I love to listen to music using wireless headphones. I have Beats Wireless and Sony Ericsson MW 600.
When I pair them with HTC Wildfire music is nice and continuous (it simply works) --> android 2.2
When I pair them with my Samsung Galaxy s III there are problems with sound. Every couple of seconds music stops for moment and resumes. When I go away like >1m from the phone I am unable to listen to music at all.
I tried Cyanogenmod 9.1, 10, Samsung 4.1.2 and Omega ROMs. On all it is the same.
Anyone else having this issue?
I just installed CyanogenMod 10.1.2 Stable (via SafeStrap 3.11), everything went perfect. A couple days later, I finally went to re-sync my phone to my PriusV's Entune system to play music via Google Play Music (with playlists stored locally on the phone).
Music plays back OK, however my issue is that no song details (Track title, artist name, disc name, playback position) will display on the Entune screen, and none of the car's control buttons (play/pause/next track/prev track) will do anything. I don't want to have to pull out my phone to change tracks or see what song just came on while i'm driving when this is what the details and controls on the car are supposed to do for me.
Anyone out there have any thoughts/ideas/suggestions/possible fixes?

I have a Highlander without Entune (Stock Stereo), so it's not a direct comparison but here's what I found. Music details don't display on the stereo. I've tried countless apps/hacks but nothing has worked. They spent all their dev $$ on getting it to work on the iPhone and left Android users in the dust. So I'm not sure music details have ever worked with Android.
The steering wheel controls however work fine for me, so that's strange. In the bluetooth settings on the phone, when connected to the stereo, is 'media' connected? It should be.
I wonder if an updated bluetooth controller for android would fix this issue for everyone?
I suppose I should clarify a bit - when i mentioned this being after installing CyanogenMod 10.1, I was assuming that one would take it things were working under stock, which was the case.
So: Stock - bluetooth playback showing track/artist/disc information, position in the song, and car controls worked (though stock had an older version of Google Play Music, so this could also be a source of conflict)
CyanogenMod: bluetooth only plays music, does not display any of the other information, and controls do not work. (Cyanogen 10.1 comes pre-built with the newer version of play music, so downgrading would be.... difficult and i'd rather try and make it work without doing so)
I guess what I want to try and find out is if it is CyanogenMod or Google Play Music's new version that is next to incompatible with Entune. With Stock, I had near 100% functionality (only shuffle/repeat toggles did not work - but even those don't work right with my wife's iPod, so i'm not worried about those functions).
Since i'm essentially dual-booted through SafeStrap, I may try going back on Stock, updating Play Music, and testing - if updating Play Music causes Stock to loose functionality equally, then i guess i'll have my answer - obviously i'll post back with results.
If functionality is still present on Stock after updating play store, then that traces it back to being something with Cyanogen, and the bluetooth driver it uses.
OK - sorry for the back to back posts, but I got lucky on some digging and found my answer.
CyanogenMod does not have something called AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile) revision 1.3+ built into it's bluetooth stack. This is because that is not something that is included by default under AOSP 4.2.x. So unless you want to build your own bluetooth stack and put it into Cyanogen, you're not going to get track info/controls.
Google has announced that under AOSP 4.3, they will be building Bluetooth version 4 support into Android, and version 4 supports AVRCP 1.3+ natively, thus Cyanogenmod's next version based off of AOSP 4.3 will then contain AVRCP support.
So, the short of it is, hang in there for the next major release of Cyanogen and all will be resolved!
Most manufacturers build AVRCP support into the bluetooth stack for their devices, hence why stock worked and now CyanogenMod does not.
Huh good to know. I knew that Android 4.3 included an upgrade to BT, but I didn't realize it would fix this issue. I wouldn't even know how to build my own BT stack, but it would be useful in the long run.
+1 on this
I have a Nexus 4 with CM 10.1.2 connected to my Skoda Octavia built-in bluetooth. I play music with Apollo (Cyanogenmod's music player) and I get to hear the songs and can skip to the next/previous songs with steering wheel controls but don't get to see the song title/artist info.
My Nexus One with CM 7 however does play music fine and shows all song details and steering wheel controls work fine.
So based on 1.) the fact that my 3.5 year old Nexus One (with CM 7 - Android 2.3.7) shows song details fine and 2.) the excellence of the CyanogenMod team, I think this can be resolved with some coding rather then waiting for Android 4.3 or CM 10.2 with an updated bluetooth stack.
Unfortunately I can't say if this issue only started appearing after the 2 security updates (10.1.1 and 10.1.2) since CM 10.1.2 was the 1st ROM I flashed on my Nexus 4. Although in this post goo.gl/KQ6J7H some guy who encounters the same issue, also experienced the issue on CM 10.1 (so before the security updates 10.1.1 & 10.1.2).
Apart from the song details not showing, I also noticed that sometimes I can't enable bluetooth at all and need to reboot my phone for it to work again. When tabbing the bluetooth icon in powercontrol widget or even directly in Settings it simply won't enable bluetooth. Also experienced by the guy from post goo.gl/KQ6J7H
I'm hoping to see this annoying bluetooth issue resolved asap.
