After iOS6 upgrade, bluetooth function is limited?

Hi

After upgrading to iOS6 my Iphone 4S has problems with my car stereo.

Alpine CDE135BT

Before upgrade (5.1.1) I could easily pair my phone with the car stereo. The stereo started playing music as soon as it was connected, and I could pause and change songs trough the car stereo.

After update I can only send the sound to my car stereo trough bluetooth. But the ability to change songs and play/pause on the stereo has been lost.

What gives?

I have the same problem with my Alpine car stereo. The controlls on the stereo no longer work for the music since upgrading to the new operating system. Any advise on a fix for this would be appreciated.

go to alpine site, they have a patch ie firmware upgrade now, but it requires Windows 7 laptop, which I don't have. If anybody has a method that works with Macbook, pls let me know.

Also works with an Android phone to install the update. Good guide on Alpines website on how to do it.

Ofc beeing on this forum you hardly have an Android phone.

I had to borrow my co-workers android phone.
