• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Android and BT BRP Connect

Last year occasionally my phone, using google music, would pause a song for no apparent reason while BT connected to the Spyder, stopping playback. But the dash would show that it was still playing. I found that all I needed to do was advance to the next song and it would start playing again. This year it is far worse. My phone was updated to Android 9 over the winter. So I am assuming that or some other update is why it is worse this year. Advancing to the next song works, but often it would often stop again before the next song is done. I now have found that this only happens when I only let the google music player auto start in the background. If I take the extra step of starting the google music app on the phone. It will play without stopping. I hope this helps someone else.
 
I have my music loaded on my phone. BT to dash and every so often maybe once a week or so mine just stops playing. Freezes. Have to turn off bike and wait till completely shut down and then restart bike. Works then. I have the 20.8 update. Has done this ever since I got the 20.8 update. It's not my phone cause I've had 3 phones since and they all do it. I'm hoping the new 30.7 update that are on the 2020's will fix this.
