I have had problems before when connecting a new phone - a Chinese phone nonetheless but I got it working in the end by altering a few settings on the phone.

Anyhow, I have a new phone now and I altered the same settings and connected the phone up. The phone works fine but when I first used spotify, it played perfectly and displayed all song info etc etc. Then it disconnected, I reconnected it and now no song info will display at all. It is frustrating me beyond belief but the Kadjar multimedia player is different to how it used to be. It has two tabs along the top and a browser button which it didnt have before.

Does anyone have any insight into this at all? It is driving me mental!

Do you use it through Android Auto or as direct bluetooth streaming? Can you post a picture of what's bothering you? May be a change in the Spotify app.

No I do not use Android Auto. The thing is, it worked and displayed the song information from spotify and then it stopped and never returned. It plays the music fine but I really find the data handy. However, since it stopped displaying the data I have found that the media player looks different. It has two tabs at the top and a button in the middle that says browser. Nothing has changed at all. Would you know if there is  away of getting into the deeper settings of R-link?

That is strange. There are no advanced settings for the media player, as far as I know... Try forget the phone from the system and pair it again. Another solution is to reset the RLink, by holding the power button for more than 10 seconds, but it might loose all personal setting and bookmarks.

I have tried renaming my device, resetting the connection, rebooting r-link....it has just refused to display the metadata for songs in Spotify...so I am trying to determine whether it is the phone or the car...even though it pairs up with my wifes hyundai Tucson with no problem!

As a matter of curiosity, which version of the link firmware are you using, version 2 or 3, 3 being the one with android connect or what ever it is called?
