If i am only connected thru bluetooth, audio plays and is controlled like normal (change tracks, etc). When i connect mhl and ARL, the audio sounds different (poor, no EQ) almost like the audio signal is being routed thru the port on the phone rather than over BT, volume and tracks can only be controlled on the phone. When i switch audio source to pandora (still in AppMode), then the audio goes back to normal and i can control the volume on the HU, but cant switch tracks unless i go to my media player and switch tracks. If i switch to HD radio with music still playing on the phone, they will play at the same time on top of eachother. I have to go in and pause the music on the phone if i want to listen to just the fm radio.
Same thing was happening when i was using the standard AppRadio app, so its not a root/ARL related.
Am i missing something here?
Verizon SGS3, 4.1.2, rooted, ARL v2.5.1, 8500bhs
