Another Android update, another bout of Pandora not working. It was all working fine. If I turned the radio off before shutting down the engine (or at least before I opened the door), Pandora would re-connect when I started back up no problem.

If I forgot to turn the radio off, then I could tell it to search for new apps, it would find Pandora, and I could start it no problem.

Now, regardless of what I do with the radio, it doesn't find Pandora. I can manually start Pandora on my phone, and then search for new apps and it will see it. Or I can start Pandora on my phone and play Bluetooth audio. But I always have to manually start Pandora on the phone. Kinda defeats the purpose of hands free...

I've checked for updates to Sync, but nothing there...

Not looking for suggestions, just venting.

I'm having the same issues, I start Pandora on the phone, Bluetooth it, then search app and then select Pandora from the list.

That would happen to me periodically. The only way I found to fix it was just to reinstall Pandora on my phone. Then the car would find it over bluetooth again.

Since I installed the Sync3 update with Android Auto I just use it that way now.
