AVRCP Bluetooth problems on 7.0

Wishmaster — Sun, 18 Dec 2016 10:56:08 GMT

Hi,
I'd like to report a problem with AVRCP on XZ running Nougat update. I checked it on Philips BT2110 and Sony XB950BT and not only did the control buttons stopped working but even volume control got "disconnected" where previously volume control was synced between XZ and my Philips but strangely not with Sony headphones.

Could you check if it's working for you which would mean there's something wrong on my end or if it's a system problem and needs fixing.

Thanks

Tried searching before, no results, that's why I wrote.
As for trying it on safe mode - no changes, so it looks like something got unintentionally crippled on Nougat update and needs fixing in next firmware.

Ok, sorry, after searching once again I found that it's a bug that happens in Nougat 7.0.
My bad, shouldn't create another topic about this.

any updates on this? just received my motorcycle headset Sena SMH5 and found out that Android 7 Nougat on my Xperia XZ has issues with AVRCP (music player controls). Google brought out Android Bugfixes and Updates now. When can Xperia (XZ) owners expect those?
