I found the reason why bluetooth was crashing while listen to the music. I switched to WiFi5 device and now it works absolutely clean.

Working Great: pixel3 master gs5 slave sync 3.3 HU

Got this up and running today. Beta. Working Good. Only issue I seem to be having is with the Pixel and not the app. Pixel keeps turning off the hotspot when I leave the vehicle and it's not connected to the slave. This is despite the option to autodisable being off in the hotspot settings. Keep up the good work and thank u

Beacon of hope, yesterday I had image on a Nissan Quasquai 2019, today finally I've managed to get image on Vauxhall (Opel/Holden) 2019 with intellink 4.0 (tough one!).

I've rewrote things up starting from scratch but things are looking promising.

I've more or less done with the move, I'm in the UK for 2 more days then going back to Romania.

I've post some update about the progress being made.

Yeah renting cars and trying in the car does make a huge difference.....

Incredible!

I've a Nissan Micra 2018 and I suppose it has a similar system as the Qashqai. If you need any testing on it, you could ask!

I ended up using root to kill the Bluetooth Share service on the android device. So i can then use my phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nvodev:
Thank you, Emil! My car has the Intellilink infotainment so I'm looking forward to seeing it being supported. Also, I am more than happy to help with testing.

In my case rooting the phone will do nothing. As the head unit doesn’t allow any other Bluetooth connection as soon as you plug USB in..... yes the Bluetooth is still used but only with the phone plugged in....
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fma965:
i'm still sure you are failing to understand how this works.

You do not need to have the slave phone (physically connected to the car) connected to the bluetooth of the car, the only device that needs to be connected via bluetooth is the AA phone (master) this is how AA always works. your car would use the BT from the phone running AA not the slave phone unless for some reason you have both synced to the car then it could get confused.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RanMN:
My bad. I was on the beta builds. Updated to the Alpha builds and it works great! Only issue i've faced so far is that the GPS acts a bit funny. While the pointer does travel through the correct path, it keeps rotating 90 degrees right randomly and corrects itself.

Great work [MENTION=842765]Emil Borconi[/MENTION] !
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] SE-X10a:
ya, I got the same message that the default was not awt and post way back Nov last year, still nothing from Emile.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sage:
Yes mine is the same. Though if you root your phone. And then using Titanium Backup "Freeze" the Bluetooth Share service it destroys the bluetooth stack on the phone. So when you plug in via USB it cannot establish a bluetooth connection with your device. Leaving your car free to receive another bluetooth device. Works great on my VW Golf.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Delinquente1:
Hey Emil!

glad to hear you got your hands on an intellilink 4.0 - did you get it to work with the beta? I can only run the alpha but experiencing problems in the last time as the connection only works after restarting both phones or killing and restarting the necessary processes.

By the way, you don't have found some hints for the p30pro/insignia problem me and some other users have, do you?

Waiting for p30pro's android10 update maybe november, hope it may fix the direct connection to android auto..

Thanks, Werner

Hey guys I've had a search and can't find any reference for my problem in this thread or the OBD2AA thread.

I am running AAGateway & OBD2AA on a Samsung S9 master & Samsumg S4 slave (not rooted). I have previously run OBD2AA without the slave arrangement (plugging in my S9 via USB) without any issues.

I have also run it from my S4 in the same manner - I was planning on running it like this permanently with an automated wifi connection to my main phone until I realised that AA needs the bluetooth connection as well which meant I had no in car bluetooth for my actual phone as my AA phone was using it. This is not acceptable.

So I am back to AA Gateway for a better solution. It appears to work fine for the most part- I get the little gauge icon at the bottom of the screen but when I select it the only thing I see is a button that takes me back to my main AA screen. When plugged in directly via USB I see this same button but also an option for OBD2AA which then takes me to my custom gauge cluster. Why am I not seeing my OBD2AA option when connected via AAGateway?

The head unit is a Holden/Chevy Mylink in a 2018 Equinox if that is of any relevance. The rest of the AA functionality appears to be work fine just not OBD2AA gauges.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
I think I remember somewhere in the setup section of the original post that says you have to select OBD2AA as default. I could be wrong too!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RanMN:
Anyone having issues with AA working the normal way (connected to the car) after AAGateway has been uninstalled ? AA doesnt launch anymore on my Note9 or S10e after AAGateway was uninstalled.

You might try -

Rebooting phone

Clearing data of Android Auto

Deleting your device from the Android Auto interface in your car

Deleting the Bluetooth connection to your phone on your car

I'm pretty sure that starting fresh like this will solve your problem.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RanMN:
Had tried all that but dint work. Finally got the apk for Android Auto 4.7 from APK mirror and its fine now. However, got a new problem. After installing AAGateway(Alpha), it doesn't ask for permission and skips the screen to set if the device is a Master or Slave. Happening on both the OPX & N9. :(
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Delinquente1:
The alpha has no master slave option and only needs to be installed to the "slave" phone you connect via usb. The alpha also does not ask for permissons.

Just start the gateway and hotspot on your normal phone before you go to your car, and then connect the slave phone to the usb and set to always start AAGateWay when prompted.

Does the WiFi Hotspot have to be the one of the master device?

Or is it also possible to use the Slave as a Hotspot?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Markus_Markus:
No cóż zapłaciłem za tą aplikację, ale niestety nie mogę jej pobrać :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RanMN:
Oh okay. Just to confirm:

1. Install the Alpha AAGateway on the SLAVE

2. Start the Head Unit Server on AA on the Master

3. Configure hotspot on the master & connect it to the slave

4. Connect the slave via USB cable to the head unit and select AAGateway when prompted

Could you please confirm if i doing anything wrong? :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Jemus:
Did't quite get what the dev is pointing out by this post.

But I wasn't able to get it to run with my Note 4 (LineageOS 16) as slave, Note 9 (Stock) as master in an Intellilink 900 (Opel Astra)

Are there incompabilities concerning Headunits of some manufacturers that the dev was referring to in the past? Because I wasn't able to find anything written about that.

Edit:

So I problem for me was, that I hadn't installed AAGateway on the Master device. The dev statet to do so in the first post but somewhere else I read that wasn't the case when using the last beta version.

Next problem I am facing is, that I have to start AAGateway on the master first an than tap on "Manual Start" to establish the connection to the slave.

Isn't it possible to get that done automatically?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fma965:
Not sure why you guys are saying that you don't need to install AAGateway on the master, it needs to be installed on both, how else will they communicate?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Delinquente1:
There are two different app versions. First, the beta is the newer one, no one can "update" to the alpha;)

The beta - as far as i know - always needs to be installed on BOTH phones!

The alpha you should just use if the beta does not work with your phone/car constellation, as in my case.

For the alpha, just install it on the slave phone you want to connect to your cars USB, but dont connect it allready. (You even dont need android auto installed on your slave phone)

Start the server in android auto on your master phone and close Android auto again, server mode keeps running.

Then make a hotspot from your master phone and connect the slave phone to it.

Then connect the slave to your cars usb and when prompted, choose to always start AAGateway on the slave phone, DO NOT CHOOSE ANDROID AUTO HERE!! (sometimes you have to choose aagateway twice to always start)

After a few seconds you should get prompted on your master phone to setup android auto for the first time. After youve done this, setup is complete and android auto should start on your cars screen.

You also see the message on your master phone in the status bar that android auto is connected to your car.

When i leave my car, i just switch off the hotspot and android auto + google maps close on my master phone.

When i head back to my car i activate the hotspot on the way, BEFORE i start the car, and Android auto starts with the car automatic, nothing else to do.

Hope i could help some of you who have problems with connection of the alpha.

---------- Post added at 01:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 PM ----------

Hey RanMN!

Yes, this is exactly the procedure i get to work it with the alpha. If it doesnt work, delete cache and storage from AA on your master and restart both phones.:good:

Is the Android Auto connection working stable for you?

On my Insignia with Intellilink 900 i get it to work but it crashes somewhen within 1-2 minutes
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
Hi Jemus. In the AA Gateway app on the master it gives you the option to start AA Gateway when the phone connects to the car's Bluetooth. Just choose the car's Bluetooth id in the dropdown.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Jemus:
Well I just gave it a try for two days. It was stable so far, but in gmaps it seems the connection was to slow. There were no errors but the position on gmaps was always behind my actual position so I missed a few I had to take. Thats why I disabled bluetooth on my slave phone. So I use that one wired with AndroidAuto and my master phone is connected via bluetooth to be able to do phonecalls.

I found that option but it didn't work for me.

Nevertheless, thanks for pointing that out.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Hi guys.

Important!!!

DO NOT Updated to Android Auto 4.7, due to a bug the headunit server is unusable in this build. Google have acknowledge this and advise to roll back to 4.6 or wait for 4.8 so they can fix the issue!

Good news

I'm more or less over with my move to Romania (gush if you have no headaches buy a house and try to move from one country to another, trust me you will have plenty of headaches for a very long period).

Due to lack of time I'm not going to write a long post for now, but I need some testers for the new version (100% re-wrote from scratch). I'm looking for guys who uses phones as slave. Very interested in those who where not able to get anything going with beta/alpha build to see if things have improved, of course all others who want to test are also welcomed.

It is 11 PM here now and I'm soon going to hit the bed and have some sleep, for those interested in testing please send me an email to borconie@gmail.com letting me know you're interested. Tomorrow at some point (early afternoon most probably) I will email all those who want to test instructions and APK.

Next week I'm off to Berlin to meet Google. I do hope that I will get enough of positive feedback on the new version to be able to push it to Beta before I set off to Berlin.

Salve come faccio a scaricare aagatewey visto che ho pagato
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aim2miss@gmail.com:
Emil,

I tried the new setup you emailed. Everything is working perfectly except I have to reboot the Master between uses or it will not reconnect.

If I do not reboot master prior to each use I get:

1. Slave connects fine and activates it's hotspot and the car display shows waiting for master.

2. Master activates Wifi Launcher and connects to Slave hotspot.

3. The Android Auto icon will pop up in Master's notification area at the top of the screen for a few seconds then goes away.

Update: I found that if I wait for the failure to occur in item 3 above and then turn the Master's wifi off and back on, Android Auto will reload and everything works fine.

2017 Honda Accord head unit (USA version).

Slave is a Nexus 5x with rooted Android 10.

Master is LG V30 unrooted Android 9

My phone had Android Auto 4.7.593824. I downgraded to 4.6 and the results were the same.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RanMN:
[MENTION=842765]Emil Borconi[/MENTION]

My Slave runs Android 5 on OPX & Master runs Android Pie on Note9. HU is a Sync3 from Ford.

I've set it all up as instructed and OPX does initiate the hotspot and the head unit brings up a splash screen which says waiting for master. Even the master triggers the wifi launcher app but nothing happens after that. Do let me know if you need a bug report.

Cheers
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LLStarks:
The new setup takes a lot of patience, but once it's set, everything works great.

Notes

* Honda can finally display the waiting screen

* The Exit button is no longer styled to car maker logo

* The HUR network is only 2.4 GHz

* Slave hotspot will occasionally hit an error state and require a manual toggle to unstick

Master: Pixel 2 XL 10.0

Slave: OnePlus One 9.0
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] aim2miss@gmail.com:
My slaves HUR hotspot is using 5gHz.

Headunit is a Honda Accord

Slave is a Nexus 5x

Master is LG V30
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LLStarks:
Do I need to keep master wifi enabled at all times or does the master app handle that?

Also, I'm noticing that the slave app BT select doesn't render all the entries properly or even detect them all. I had to manually enter my master BT MAC, which wasn't trivial to determine.

Any news on the X96S?

I could get my hands on a cheap 4+32 Version but am unsure about my chances of making it work...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Sorrythe feedback on the beta version was relativelly limited so I wasn't able to push it to public beta yet, and I'm in Berlin now (meeting Google). I hope I will get some more feedback on the new version, also I will need to analyse some logs from and will move it forward from there.

From the feedback I had, it looks like there are still some smaller issues/glitches to sort out but apppears to be a big step forward with almost all feedback saying they can get the new spashscreen up which is a massive step forward.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LLStarks:
Typically the worst I need to do is re-plug the slave. The splash screen doesn't always show up. It's usually 10+ seconds of black before the AA interface pops up. Only reliably see it on a re-plug.

I don't understand the new architecture, but it just works.

Hi

Apologies if this has been posted somewhere in thread but could find any info

I current have my phones connected as wired. I use AA Stream in my car and have rooted my Phone because of this

I if use this method Slave/Master. Which phone will need to be rooted in order to be able to use AA Stream?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fma965:
The master. although i know that Emil has previously actively been against using 3rd party apps and has blocked them, as mirroring apps have been 1 of the main reasons why Emil's app "OBD2AA" stopped working at first, google implemented preventions for 3rd party apps. I don't know if the AA Gateway is also imposing this same restriction.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] The Android Attorney:
[MENTION=842765]Emil Borconi[/MENTION] can I also get a copy of the APK you're working on? I bought your app on the 27th. I can PM proof if you want.

Ok I give up ... I have been trying to get this working for the past 6 hours

Head unit:

Sony XAV-AX100

Slaves tried:

Samsung Galaxy S4

Samsung Note 5

Master:

Samsung Note 8

Alpha:

Alpha just does not do anything when you plug it into the head unit on either Slave device or even if Alhpa is installed on the master or not. After rebooting everything multiple times I gave up on this one as well. The Master says "Connected to screen" but it seems like everything need a restart to use the devices again

Beta:

When its installed on the Note 5 it comes up on the head unit with the black screen saying you need to look at the phone as there are options to select. On the S4 the hotspot connection keeps on reconnecting. The Master only connected to the slave once when plugged in but nothing was displayed on the head unit....

Edit - Ok I managed to get it to consisetenly say "Head unit stuck .... Restart Head unit"

Any advice?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] The Android Attorney:
One last to try is maybe rooting the slave devices and maybe that would make it work. Iys worth a try.

Guys, need bit of help. I used to have RC3 version installed for nearly 11 months, with help of automate flows it was working acceptably OK (after say 2 months, earlier it wasnt - before I created and mastered my flows) for all that time. I got tempted by one of guys who got in touch with Emil to try to install this new AAWiFiGateway. First I coudl not install WiFiLauncher from xdalabs app, secondly reading Emil's instructions, and checking what slave apk allows I realized on unrouted phones and both Android 8, it won't work the way I like it (hotspot on slave), so decided to uninstall and go back to RC3 beta. And now I have a problem - on neither phones I can download this version from xdalabs apk - it asks for permisions, the icon spins around download button and thats it. Any idea what coudl be going wrong? I used to download the apks many times over first months of 2019 (I was trying a few phones, reinstalling when things were not working etc, never problem with download (aside of first when there were some issues with making $1 payment)).

I'm back on USB cable which is what I hate.

PS> on some attempts of downloading/installing from XDALabs (after accepting all permisions) I get very quickly some error notification that something get wrong and download was unsuccessful, other times though it seems to infinitelly spinning the download icon.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
I'm back to my desk, and this time for good, no plans for going anywhere and as far as I know no major drama in the near future so I can focus on development.

The new gateway is a bit of hit and miss, I now got a few bug reports which I need to analyse for a few force close cases, but generally it's good. Apparently the new Kia/Hyundai cars still have a problem with getting the splashscreen to load and stay, so I'll try to arange with the Kia dealership to allow me to do some development work in the showroom, otherwise it will be really difficult to rent a Kia with AA in Romania. I will also try to get back to the habit of regular updates on XDA, since I know very well that I wasn't too active here this year. That being said, I'm always reachable by email (even if on bad days I'm replying to more then 40 emails )
