Audio50, how to get bluetooth audio

First of all, i have tried engineering mode, but there is No option for bluetooth audio in my car.

I have an bluetooth adapter that works ok, (this one https://cdon.no/elektronikk/invery-airdual-carelite-300a-bluetooth-adapter-for-tradlos-musik-i-din-bil-p46907652) but for Apple phones the name of the first song shows, but when i change the song, the title does'nt. With my new android phone no song title shows in the screen.

Is there any adapters that works better with android? I have thought about changing the unit, but that looks complicated and expensive.

I just installed a BOVEE in my S550 to the 30 pin media interface connector in the glove box and it seems to work fine. Shows song title too. I have not scrolled music in my iPhone as I only have one song in it as it is required for the unit to stream U-tube that I need it for. I have music in memory card and music register..

You need to update the software on your radio device with Xentry and you will make it work

But i have also concidered something like this. https://www.ckmcardes********/e-clas...uchscreen-w212

But it might be overkill and look out of place...

I did ask, but they where pretty sure it wont work because it is just a software update. But the Guy was'nt sure, but he had never heard of it before. They where bust now because of the vacation, but i will try in a few weeks.
