Default uconnect Bluetooth Streaming Metadata

Do any of the uconnect systems show bluetooth metadata? My 2013 charger doesnt show any data and the info button is greyed out. This happened on both a Samsung Galaxy S3 and an iPhone 5. It worked before in a honda civic 2012.

Here are some pictures:

Any app.
As you can see, only the phone name is displayed. No artist or album information.

Hopefully they'll fix that along with some of the other issues that customers are complaining about with that radio.
I have the RHB radio in one vehicle and the RES in another, both display MD while in streaming audio with my iPhone 4S & 5, I had also tried out a friends Samsung G3 trying to duplicate a different issue for another person, that phone also sent the MD to Uconnect for displaying. Now not all phones will send the MD for displaying, however those 2 do.
Oh, sorry. I should mention that the phone sends the MD for the stored audio content in the phone as well as most music APPS, however there are some APPS that don't stream the MD to the phone so the phone can't send the MD.

Well, as you can see from the Honda, the iPhone 5 and the Galaxy S3 both send the metadata. I am amazed that the old radio has that feature but the new one doesn't. Based on what I read, the new one is significantly inferior.

I do have a question, does the old radio display unicode characters and album art? The new one doesn't. It just shows underscores where unicode characters are supposed to be.

I'm not sure about the Harman radios (730 & 730N) but the Mitsubishi radios (REQ, RES, RHB & RBZ) did not display unicode. Album art was only displayed in a wired connection, not in streaming mode.
