Yes.

Spotify Connect have ads. Is that normal? I`ve never used that function.

When using chromecast adverts start playing and are in the playlist, is this normal?

It is a question that has already been answered several times. Through Spotify Connect the streaming becomes directly from the server, leaving the mod app aside, so the ads return. Stream directly from your device via bluetooth.

This build is giving me again shuffle mode only.
Tried to clean data, cache, FC twice but nothing worked.
Previous v8.5.57.1164 build was back to working perfectly.
A kind of a mystery here...

MIUI 11 - Android 10.

Just restart the phone

THANK YOU I kept having the shuffle only issue for the past month, and just restarted the phone and it works perfectly now, thanks man!

I had that issue once. Everything went black and the app wasn't responding. Had to FC it. But let's first test it on the untouched apk and not blame mrdude for everything haha.

The latest untouched version isn`t out for me on playstore yet and on 8.5.57... untouched I`m not facing this issue. I`m trying 8.5.57 mod now maybe it`s particular country server issue cause with untouched version i tried it with different country account.

I just tried v8.5.57 and this version of the mods that I have on two different devices and I don't have problems loading or seeing the artists page, from Argentina.

V8.5.57 also working fine for me but on latest (both normal mod and mod lite) artist page is not working perfectly, it loads sometime and sometimes it does not load at all.

So i tried latest untouched version and it`s Spotify own bug that artist page is not loading. I tried it with 2 different country accounts. Also that canvas option not appearing in untouched for first open but appears when you open an app again.

Someone else is expieriencing similar problems?

Problem: Not possible to search anything. Instead a popup telling "Something went wrong"

Steps to reproduce:
0. (Using Free-Account, maybe Premium makes a difference)
1. Search anything you want to listen
2. Listen to it for a whole time (detected this after touching my phone again after 3h)
3. Search for something else
4. Press on the Artist (no direct song, this works)
5. Receive a error-popup: "Something went wrong", retry won't help

Workaround:
It seems to help sometimes to swipe the app away in the "last used apps". Not everytime, but I belive this is only because it is not really closed already.
Force closing using the app info helped everytime for me (only tried 2x ... )
Edit: This happend even right after another clean install I just made while writing this. Closing App by using recent apps (and waiting a few sec) worked again)

Things on my side wich could interfere:
- I am using Blokada with a few filterlists. But Spotify is not appearing on the blocked log. Also using Quad9 (9.9.9.9) DNS.
- Xiaomi is somewhat agressiv with its powersaving. (Device: Xiaomi Mi 9t Pro @Miui11/Android10)
- No permissions granted for Spotify, but it haven't asked for any since clean install of this version.

Things I will try next, in order of apperance:
1. Locking Spotify inside Recent-Apps
2. Disabling Blokada (therfore also DNS change)
3. Disabling miui-powersaving. (Disabling App optimazion of android won't work, even if using Hidden Settings App)
4. Enabling Autostart/Allow Start by other Apps
5. Enabling permissions step-by-step.... (I think it is strange spotify haven't even asked for storage permission... sure, it only uses the "cache", maybe thats why...can't download anyway)

Results:
1. Changed nothing, was locked the whole time (won't reset after clean install)
2. Still happening. Also no blocked domain was shown.
3. Changing to "no restrictions" hasn't helped either
4. Another Miui related "powersaver" ... Activating dosn't changed anything.
5. Nope ...


So again:
Someone expieriencing similar problems?
Maybe someone already has a fix?


Conclusion:
Well I could just had read the post just above mine ... But now I am quite sure this is not a fault with my phone, but spotify itself damaging their reputation another time.

(I will update this post, once I figured out why this is happening. Hopefully I can still edit after a few hours, else i will only post a update)
Edit1: Added step 4: It only occours if I want to open a (new) artist page, if pressing a song, it works.
Edit2: Added Result 3
Edit3: Added Thing 4. Renamed 4->5
Edit4: Tested enabling permissions, added conclusion.
