Working fine here. I've got a 2015 Sonata.
Uninstall the AA app, delete the pairing from the car and phone, then re-pair and try again from the start. But mine worked straight away.

Apply parking brake.

Tells me that android auto will start when I am parked, already parked? Apply parking brake. The S6 edge+ plus never said this so it must be a mm thing. Don't know what to do now.

I had that message on my Note 5 also. Once you get past that message, it should work every time going forward.

How?

I don't have android edge but on my 2012 civic this phone doesn't display song info when streaming music over Bluetooth like all my previous phones. Not quite sure how to fix this.

Got it to work by disconnecting my parking brake ground from head unit and replacing it with a switch that is underneath my din cover. Now I can make it think I'm in park even when cruising down the highway, Win, win!!

This is typically a kernel issue, or firmware on the radio.
My old 2013 Sonata never displayed artist/track info except for USB or an iPhone plugged in with the special Hyundai cable. After a firmware update in mid-2013, it began working, and kept doing so for every phone I had until trading the car in 3 months ago. Except for my VZW Galaxy S5.

Bluetooth Problems! Please help!!

Lately, I am facing this terrible Bluetooth problem on my s6e+. All my devices are dropping connections even if the phone is in my pocket.
My Bluetooth earphones would disconnect if I keep my phone in either pockets but would work fine 10 feet away from laptop.
My Moto360 keeps dropping connection, vibrating constantly which makes me think I received notification and makes me go crazy!
I thought I had problems with Android wear so I resetted my watch, removed android wear app and reinstalled, paired again.
Still problem was there so I tried headphones to confirm the problem is with phone. I tried unpairing all devices, clearing cache.
Does anyone have solution other than wiping system. That is the last thing I want to do.
I am on stock 5.1.1 unrooted. TIA
EDIT: I wiped/Factory reset my phone. Still the problem persists. I am starting to believe it as hardware problem.
UPDATE: Samsung replaced main board and Bluetooth problem is solved now!
Twop Months ago i have the same problem and let say is Hadware problem, in my case i send to samsung and they change the logic board
I had similar issue before and suspected the hardware but after I updated to MM no more issue with my Zen watch 2

Were you able to solve it anyhow? I haven't received any updates since I bought the phone.
No, it's still happening
I had similar problems, was losing connection to my card obd II dongle and my car audio system.. resolved with the MM update
I am on Tmob so I haven't received the MM update. It would take atleast a month and I am not sure if that will work 100%. So I sent my phone to service center. Will update when I get their response for this issue.
Yes happen after 5 months one day my pebble watch start to disconnecting and then my car radio.

Anyone having issues with NFC?

Tried pairing the v20 to my UE Boom using NFC and it wouldn't work, so I thought maybe it's the speakers. I tried with a different phone and it worked just fine. Tested again by trying to share via NFC on the V20 and it still won't work. Any thoughts?

now that you mention it, yeah. When I was setting up the phone I used LG's transfer app, which works with NFC and Wi-Fi to transfer old settings and apps to the new device. It never worked. It's possible the NFC didn't work. I'll have to test it on something else known working.
Sent from my SM-T810 using Tapatalk
Yeah. Tried to transfer an app from my G3 and couldn't do it.
I was able to do it from my V10. But I think the nfc antenna is close to the top of the phone in the camera bump, and not the middle like most. Try holding the camera bump to your speaker or middle of the back of your phones and see if it works. I just tested with my galaxy prime and sure enough, back to back doesn't work, but if I slide the V10 down to where the camera bump is in the center of the back of my other phone, it works.

Are you guys having problem with android pay? Android beam is a hit and miss, but with android pay, it will open the android pay app but would not complete the transaction. It kept saying place it again.

Make sure you're pointing the very top of the camera. It's also weak because of the metal back. The signal only comes out the tiny horizontal slit about the camera

bro can anyone help ? im using lg h918 v20 but the nfc wont turn enable.. when i click they turn disable quickly.. i recently upgrade to oreo via ota.. but didnt fix the problem .. any solution guys ?
I just figure what was my problem and as soon i took off the battery cover you will notice that i has attached an antenna around camera circle and one of the 2 little gold plated was damage, so i replace the battery cover with my friend v20 and just work like it should be.

Anyone having issues with Android auto? I keep getting an error 7 my cars security doesn't meet the requirements for..... I've reset my phone already and made sure my navigation was up to date.

Is it factory or after-market radio? I'm waiting on my S8 to arrive today...Android Auto is one thing I've been wondering about...whether it's going to screw up or not with the new phone. Mine is an after-market (Pioneer).
I'll be keeping an eye on this thread as well. I have the Pioneer AVH-4200NEX and I have come to rely on AA with my S7E, it didn't work at first a while back, but after an (phone) update it works fine. I can't see going without it at this point, very useful. I'll chime in when I get my S8+ (hopefully tomorrow) if I have any issues.

Same here...that's exactly what I have and I've gotten so used to it, it's a must have for my new phone to work with it! My S8 should be arriving any minute and top of my priority list is connecting it to my car. I'll keep you posted.
Works fine for me. Hyundai with AVN 4.0 (latest) stock head unit. Remember too that if you used Smart Switch to set up your phone you need to uninstall and reinstall all your AA dependent apps. AA doesn't see them for some reason when they're copied vs. installed from scratch.

It worked flawlessly on my way home from work!
Finally figured it out. Turns out the play services app need updating and wouldn't update unless connected to Wi-Fi. All works now!
Also having some issues it seems with android auto, s8, and connection to my car.
I love having new technology but I wish things like this were already hammered out.

Did you try uninstalling Android Auto app? I uninstalled mine then went plug it up in my car and let it prompt me to download everything and allow permissions, etc. I had to put my emergency brake on and go through the whole nine yards, but it worked perfectly once all done.

Yes. This was the first step I did. Uninstalled AA, Spotify, and then installed AA. Once done with that I went into android auto and downloaded Spotify. Still not listed as an option. Also tried another USB cord just for good measure.
Finally got to use android auto this morning. I used a micro USB to USB C adapter I had bought earlier. Everything ran perfectly, I didn't need to install anything, spotify worked, everything so far exactly as before with no hiccups.

I had to do this twice to get it working right lol.
But now... Sometimes it tells me Spotify isn't working and has a spinning icon. I have to restart the phone and car to remedy. This has been happening since android 7 came out to update on my devices. S7Edge before and now the S8
I hadn't realized it till over the weekend that my iHeart Radio wasn't appearing in my music choice either. I uninstalled and re-installed iHeart Radio app to see if that helped but it didn't. Then suddenly I get in my car this morning and it's working! IDK what the deal is.

Help! Seicane S18JP25 Quad Core/Android 7.1.2 drops bluetooth phone after 2 seconds!

Stock ROM from Seicane ~4 weeks ago. The unit pairs with the cell phone for ~2 seconds and then drops the connection. If I'm quick, I can actually place a call that goes through the handset and places a call that uses the handset speaker.
I tested on a Leeco Pro3 and an Alcatel phone. This is a show stopper but the unit is installed and it was shipped direct from China so replacing it is a big deal. HELP!
Has anyone else seen this?
i have this unit, I have not had any issues with Bluetooth. I did a 6 hour road trip, listening to Bluetooth the whole time. I was connected to a Moto Z2 Force.
What is your About Device screen showing? maybe you need an update, i just updated my MCU to the latest KSP

Thanks CadillacMike. I checked and I have the same MCU as you do. So I did a factory reset (on Seicane's advice, sort of, it's little hard to guess what they were trying to say). It didn't fix anything but blew away IGO and maybe a few other things.
Then I tried a 3rd phone; my son's Moto G4 paired quickly and perfectly.
Next up:
Recover the missing pieces from the factory reset.
Update/change/whatever to get my phone to behave.
EDIT: Got it working. Burned my phone with a custom ROM: ResurrectionRemix. No idea why this worked but the hint came from some else with a similar andoid head and a LeeCo phone. Likely hopeless for the Alcatel phone but that is unimportant for me.
As small thank, maybe you would enjoy a Jeep icon for your IGO map? Put the attached files in \igo\content\car Then in settings -> map options change the 3d car to one of the selected
hey thanks, but i dont use iGo, i just use Google Maps.
I also got Seicane headlights:

I like unit so much that I might leave it alone for awhile and have something to play with later when a 10" screen in the dash seems like an everyday thing.
It was the October 26th update for PX3 that was in the Dasaita thread

Whats happened on the mazdas with all chinese units
People were having issues having their cell phones even connect. It was duento the issue of having the device paired with the old radio.. which i had with my so480.
I had to reinstall the old radio, unpair all devies from it then reinstall the new radio and pair up and has worked fine ever since. Now as to why i dont know as the aftermarket radio used its own bluetooth connections as the canbus only let the radio sync up with the steering wheel functions. Hopefully you get it fixed.

Waze in Android auto issues

Anyone have so many problems as me when using Waze in Android auto?
1) street names text is so pixelated and not crisp/smooth
2) freezing
3) sometime it doesn't even update the location and blank map
Etc..
Are you using a Oneplus 6T? I just got off the phone with Oneplus support because I cannot get Android Auto to work at all.
I'm in similar boat too.
Android Auto is messed up on this phone.
OnePlus has been of no help whatsoever.
I have been providing them logs they requested. No reply from them.

Yes 6T international ver..
damn... sucks seeing all of you having issues with AA
works great for me... I'm on the latest 9.0.11 with root and twrp and haven't seen any problems
I ranted about this on Twitter. Probably not gonna make a difference, but did it anyway..
https://twitter.com/iamshahaz/status/1081590759935987713?s=19
I posted on another thread, but I'll update this one too. I have an almost clean install as my phone was only hours old. I upgraded to the latest oxygen build (non-beta) and still no-dice. Tier 1 customer support was worthless, as was the advanced support team. It wasn't until after they told me to return the phone and hope for the feature to be fixed eventually in another build, that I again tried but with the factory dash cable. Android Auto worked immediately! I'm not sure why, but the cable that I was using with my other phone for AA wouldn't work for the 6T. Now that it is working, it works amazing.
I hope this helps someone else... Best of luck.
I can tell you my non-standard cables on my Essential phone are intermittent with AA in my car, but the stock cord, works...only phone I now that didn't work at all is the Pixel 2 XL...sold it anyway. But I use AA daily and about to buy this phone because I'm on Verizon and been awaiting support. So as long as the cable is just the issue, no biggie..can always buy a spare one for the car.

Yah, but missing cops info.
Fixed the blank screen in Waze on AA by going to the battery optimization of the app and disabling it.
Works flawlessly
