So, after upgrading to Android 7.0, I am unable to use buttons on my bluetooth headset to play/pause/skip tracks. The music plays fine, but the buttons are not working. Also, when connecting to my car's stereo by bluetooth, it says "phone not connected" even though it IS connected and I can play music just fine here, as well. Apparently this is a known bug in Android 7.0. Anyone else experiencing this? Any sollutions beside waiting for the 7.1.1 upgrade?
I should also note that my phone is not rooted, however, it is no problem doing that if it (for some reason) would help.
Thanks for all feedback!
Waiting is my "solution" too. AOSP is already available in Android version 7.1 ...
I have exact same problem and feel I have searched everywhere for a solution but to no avail. I recommend downgrading to MM until. 7.1 if you can't handle not skipping songs..
no problem here, everything works as it should, playback control, sound and track information ... i connect phone to sony mdr1000x headphones (LDAC codec) and car audio (SBC codec)
If your car has an older head unit with Bluetooth compatibility, you may have seen that with Android O, some of the metadata won't show up when playing audio from the phone. I found a tweak in the Android developer options that fixes it:

On my Honda Accord 2014, I set it to AVRCP 1.4 or 1.5, and Bluetooth shows the artist/track/etc again. Pandora runs more reliably as well.
There's no way I can get the audio system in my 2017 Subaru Forester to show remaining time on individual playing audio tracks. I have tried the various different developer options settings and it doesn't seem to make any difference.
I can confirm that setting version to 1.4, do fix this issue for pioneer radios. (Tested on DEH-X8500DAB).
After changing this, I can now switch tracks over bluetooth in my Honda Fit. Thanks!
In my case, after upgrading to Android 8.1 (Xiaomi Mi 5 @ AOSPExtended.mod by DennySPB) track infos won't work.
It doesn't matter if I choose AVRCP 1.3, 1.4, 1.5 or 1.6. It's just "no time, no title" etc.
Any other suggestions to fix that - apart from downgrading to 7.0?

In my case, this solution worked, but I only post it "as is", without any warranty, that it will work for you.
1. Unpair audio device.
2. Go to Applications > show systems apps
3. Find "Bluetooth" and "Bluetooth MIDI", clear data for both of them
4. Go to developer settings, change AVRCP to 1.5 or 1.6
5. Restart phone.
6. Pair audio again.
Hi, thanks for the information, just reporting that this didn't work for me.

Anyone have issue with Bluetooth keep disconnect??!!!!?I tried two different Bluetooth already
Had some issues aswell, but then with the caller ID not sohowing on my car radio.
When developer options is enabled your can set a different Bluetooth AVRCP Version. Try to tweak with this setting, it worked for me.
I am on the GA release of 9.0. It was a total clean flash.
Bluetooth audio works great I can even get phone calls to come in and go out. the problem I'm having is it seems that the person cannot hear me on any Bluetooth headset.
It seems like the microphone piece is not working. I have tried completely forgetting devices and repairing I have also ensured that all of the profiles are enabled.
Any ideas?
Edit: fixed it by resetting the Bluetooth settings in Developer Settings to system default
Does anyone have a hotfix for the bluetooth handsfree calling issue found in all of the custom roms of android x. Its been pointed out that changing bluetooth avrc from default to 1.6 would solve it, but after every reboot, it returns to its default value.
