The app puts the device in "Car Mode" but it appears that different devices and 
OEM skins respond differently to this.  I suppose I would need a car mode app 
launcher to go along with it to cover those cases.  I really wish OEM's would 
stop skinning Android.  It causes issues, like this one.

I pushed a update to 2.11.12 that changed the car_mode so it should also launch 
the car_mode UI if one exists.  I tested this on CM11 but there did not appear 
to be a stock car mode UI.  I found one on the play store and installed it 
(just a simple car mode home screen).  Now when the connection happens it not 
only enters car mode but also changes the UI using this downloaded car mode UI. 
 Try it and let me know how it goes.

Sorry that it took me a few days to reply.  I didn't realize that i needed to 
register as a tester.

The fix works!  Thanks!

(On a different topic, I noticed that Pandora App doesn't shut down despite the 
fact that "close app on disconnect" is selected; however, I wasn't sure if you 
were supporting that functionality anymore.)

Great.  Thanks for testing.  I will close this issue.

Killing other apps is actually considered taboo.  I still do it based on the 
users requesting it.  However, there is not really a simple way to do this in 
Android. Most would consider my work arounds borderline hacking.  Still strong 
demand makes me do it.  Pandora behaves badly in many ways.  They do not want 
any outside control of what happens in Pandora since that means the user does 
not need to read all the ads.  They put a bunch of tricks into their app to 
prevent this.  I gave up on Pandora.  The close app works on just about 
everything but Pandora.  I switched to Google Play Music long ago and never 
looked back.  Play Music has "instant mixes" which work fantastic for driving.  
They also offer ad free streaming service which has no ads (for a fee).  Play 
music integrates well with my app and actually works.  You can also voice 
command music to play (and they finally got this working well).

Yes. I had read your recommendations on Google Play Music and looked into it.  
Unfortunately, its not really an option as a free (ad-supported) streaming 
music service like Pandora, but I'll give Spotify try instead.

Thanks again!!
