And now, in comments guys are saying very High quality is only a visual/fictive effect. Whats false/true then ?
No one has ideas ? I can do some tests if someone know how doing it properly

This version still has the artist page bug, the one where it says "page could not load" after you click on the artist name.

The bug disappears after you delete cache and force quit the app a few times, but comes back later on if you open the app with google assistant commands or reboot your phone.

A lot of people say this is caused by specific phone ROM, but this bug is present on my phone with MIUI 12, on a samsung phone with latest samsung one ui and even on a phone with aosp android 10.

The latest spotify version which doesn't have this problem is 8.5.57.1164.

I'm not posting this to be pedantic or rude, I'm posting this in hope the bug might get fixed in the future releases.

That issue is from android auto itself, 8.5.57 used to work but now doesn't work anymore.

You are missing weeks of debate on Telegram group about this, people involved on this mod changed the description, take a look on RishavG's topics. 320 kbps is visual ("work in progress"). Do a "cache test" by yourself (you don't need an audio producer for this lol), play a short album like EP, and compare High and Very High. Don't use the app during this, I guess cache include image thumbnails etc. Since very high quality has double bitrate (probably vbr but assume double) than high quality, tell me what you see

Maybe something (adblock/dns filter) is blocking: spclient.wg.spotify.com/artistview/ on your device.
It need to be whitelisted.

Also, here are some info's:

I aleady did tests this morning with glasswire and others similar apps of data analyzing. Only try between normal and very high. And sizes wer different (closed spotify & cleared cache before changing audio quality). Yu simply says quality dont change between high & very high ? I Dont have telegram

Let's think for a moment, if High is 160kb/s and Very high is 320kb/s the 7,2 MB and 8,1 MB Size differences is bonkers.
Considering that Low is 24kb/s what song have 3 MB?! This is not accurate.
If you have apps running and Spotify is doing cache, buffer of the next songs, is very difficult to analyze by traffic.
If the sound is OK, why all this debate?

When i said "if someone know how doing a proper test" i mean about hertz frequences. But OK, i stop speaking about that. Sorry.

It`s because of bug by Spotify only on tabs running Android 10,11 and since mod uses tablet as a spoof that`s why it`s present on the mod so until Spotify fixes this bug on tab there`s no fixing it. Best is to spam Spotify forum with this issue so they fix it asap
