metadata over bluetooth is something android officially added in the api for android 4.3 so anything running 4.3 or higher should be using that. In order for it to use the api you need to have the android lockscreen controls setting enabled (it is by default and this tells gmmp to use that api)
If that is enabled and metadata over bluetooth still doesnt work, then unfortunately sony disabled the functionality of that api. Now in android 5.0 something new was added to android that i will eventually add into gmmp.. but it was pretty stupid of sony to remove the functionality of the old api (if they truly did) as it will break tons of apps

Thanks for the quick reply you were spot on about the lock screen controls i unticked the "disable lockscreen controls" and the track info shows up again, excellent thank you very much for the information
