I use Wave Up app instead of DT2W and it's thousands times more convenient (well, at least for me:)). Just wave over the proximity sensor and the screen turns on. Remove the phone from the pocket, and the screen turns on. Use built in feature or Tasker profile to turn screen off with another wave gesture and one doesn't need to use power button at all. :)

You *are* missing something ... that AOD has been permanently removed by Google (instead of being only hidden) from Android 10, presumably for Face Unlock and such.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
This one's huge for me and might warrant a return. My 3 XL when I plug into my Fiesta and Android Auto comes on switches from Charging to Charging Slowly, and I maintain or lose charge over the course of my trip. My 2 XL and first-gen could gain charge no problem. Wasn't Rapid, but was plenty fast.

Anyone else seeing this? This is a huge problem for me. I rely on my car to top off my phone during drives and if this can't happen anymore it kills AA for me.

Edit: There's a thread on Google's own Android Auto forums regarding this issue (apparently for people who actually have USB-C in their vehicles, the problem is ironically worse), and best yet, it has an actual Google engineer interacting and collecting data. Please report your experience here with full details, make/model of car, phone, OS and Play Services versions, etc: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-auto/1NmG3ojHX_k;context-place=mydiscussions

Also, user bigdave79 helpfully reported here that if you plug in your phone, let Android Auto open, and without unplugging go into USB Preferences and toggle from USB Controlled by "This Device" to "Connected Device" it will switch itself right back, but charging speed will return to expectations. While still not a fix, this helps further suggest this is truly a software bug and not a hardware or software feature/decision.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] theycallmerayj:
If I'm not mistaken it probably depends on your car. My 2018 Civic can't fast charge because Android Auto run through one specific USB spot. If I used a fast charge car adapter it would but then lose AA

I'm well aware. To reiterate, BOTH previous Pixels had NO trouble with my car. This is specific to the 3 XL.

I think you're all missing the Android Auto part of this. Not a car charger. The USB port built into the car to allow it to connect to Android Auto.

Well, this is annoying. Same thing on my 3 XL, "Slowing Charging".

Plugged the 2 XL back in- charging normally. Ford Explorer.

Let's hope it is some stupid $hit related to this-

https://www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-fast-charging-android-pie-fix/

The time frame and Oct release seem to match the build date in the 3 XL I have, so maybe the build of PIE is not synced to the OTA release and the next OTA will fix it? Wishful thinking I suppose..
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Google support was worse than useless on this, asking questions in circles and misunderstanding me. That said, thanks to someone on Reddit and my own thinking, I tried enabling USB Debugging. After a reboot of the phone it resolved the issue. AA starts up faster, as well.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] d j a:
Thank you for posting, never would have thought about that.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
So the problem actually returned, but was resolved again with another reboot. This is very odd. Combined with the severe memory leaks, I have to reboot this phone more than I'm used to.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] d j a:
How do you tell what it is charging at now? I can see it on the main screen if the screen is powered off (ambient) and Android Auto isn't running.

The battery dialog screen used to say, maybe I'm in the wrong spot?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Turn the screen off and back on to look at the ambient screen text at the bottom.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] Mastaking:
So all you did was enable USB Debugging through the developer options and your pixel 3 now charges at a similar speed as the Pixel 2 when connected in the car using Android Auto?

I was so hopeful and tried it out this morning but no luck at all. I even rebooted the phone 3 times and still receiving the "Slowly charging" dialog and the phone gained 2% in an hour.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Correct. Could be a 3 versus 3 XL thing, I don't know. But yes, enabled that function, restarted, and it immediately stayed on Charging. It later returns to the bad behavior, so I basically have to restart my phone every time I enter the car.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bggold:
I'm seeing the same thing. I have had developer options enabled since first day and have never seen it show rapid charging. Even with the original charger I am seeing charging slow. Since the Pixel 3 is on Sept build it is most likely the same issue as the pixel. Hopefully this will be fixed in the next update.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] SmoovC:
I too am experiencing issues with AA and a Pixel 3 XL.

1) 2014 Cadillac CTS V-Sport Premium with Cue. The phone connects and AA works just fine; however the phone shows "charging slowly".

2) 2000 Dodge Dakota R/T with a Pioneer AVH-2300NEX; latest firmware version 8.35. The phone will not establish a connection to the head unit via USB, and battery indicator flashes between charging and not charging.

I still have my Pixel 2 XL, which performs flawlessly in the CTS. Same cable, same port. The P2 XL reports "charging", and gains a charge when AA is in use.

In the Dakota, the P2 XL also performs flawlessly since the 8.35 firmware update. Again, same cable, same port. Just like the in the CTS, the P2 XL reports "charging" and gains a charge while AA is in use.

It is to be noted that developer mode is enabled on both phones, and USB debugging is "on" (both phones). I have tried the whole restart thing; to no avail.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
I've initiated a return process. Since Google's unable to offer any indication of this problem being known to them or a solution being planned, I can't go forward like this. I like this phone quite a bit, but its experience isn't so dramatically better from my 2 XL as to justify putting up with a problem with no expected solution. I'll keep my eye on updates and see if any indicate this issue has been seen and fixed and maybe consider a repurchase then. Otherwise I'll hold out for the 4.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] SmoovC:
Mine went to FedEx today. Sadly, I love the phone but already got an RA for it prior to the return window expiring. I am not confident that Google will fix the issue in a timely manner; or even acknowledge there is one. For $1000, I am not willing to go backwards in functionality. If I see proof the issue is resolved, then like you; I may decide to repurchase. If not, the P2 XL still has another year of warranty and 2 years of support.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Exactly that. I spent a lot of money on a phone to replace a very good phone. There should be no regressions for that price.

Oh well, my 2 XL was fantastic, truly. I'll probably need a few days to readjust to the screen and a month or two to wait for most of the new features to filter back to it, and I'll be fine until next year.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] jahanbin:
I am having the same issue with Tesla Model 3. If I use a 3rd party app called ampere to measure the amount of amps coming to the phone I see it fluctuate from 150-450 mAmps. If I plug another phone (Samsung) into the same port using the same app I see it be around 950-1100 mAmps.

I took the car into the dealer and they indicated that there is nothing wrong with the charger.

I hope Google fixes this soon. Hate going on a 1 hour drive with my phone plugged in and end up with lower power when I get to the destination.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy_84:
Just chiming in here to say I experienced the same thing with my Pixel 3. Just got it 2 days ago so will see if the November OTA fixes this, if it doesn't ; might also be a big enough issue for me to return it. Today drove for 3 hours, phone was at 77% when I started, 75% after the 3 hour drive... OG Pixel and S8+ on same car/components (2016 VW Golf with OG Pixel USB-A to C cable) gain somewhere around 1% per 3-4 minutes or so when plugged in and using AA, Pixel 3 stays at +/- the same % (actually seems to lose a % or 2 per hour even maybe).
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] SmoovC:
Thank you for posting and sharing your experience. I returned the P2XL, as this was a dealbreaker for me. Please update us after the Nov OTA if you notice any improvements.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
I'd be interested to hear if today's update had any impact for anyone. I've already returned my 3 XL, but I'm actively tracking this because, honestly, I miss it. Screen alone was way better than I realized after going back to the 2 XL, and the 845 had a bigger performance effect than I'd fully registered.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] SmoovC:
Could not agree more my friend, on all points stated. If and when I am satisfied this issue is resolved, I will re-order. :good:
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] skiierx131:
I noticed this issue too. Updated to the November update tonight and still slow charging when android auto is running.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
Have any of you tried different USB modes? Like when you click on the USB connected notification and it asks whether you want to use the USB for charging the device, charging another device, data transfer, etc?

I couldn't get AA to start at all when I initially got the device so I tried a bunch of different modes and now it seems to be working normally and charging the device. Not blazing fast but definitely end my 30 minute commute with around 10% more.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] micks_address:
november security update doesnt seem to have made much difference. Still says charging slowly in my car using android auto. This was the same with my Huawei P20 pro but the two one plus phones i had previously both rapid charged using android auto. It was great with the one plus phones as i rarely had to charge my phone overnight. It would top up on commute to work and same on way home in the evenings.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] ihavoc:
I've noticed the slower charging as well but assumed it will get fixed. We all need to report this to Google to get attention on it.

Same problem is there even if you use laptop's usb port. It charges slowly.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bennyboy_84:
Just wanted to point out that after November OTA, I now get "Charging" (not slowly, not fast) when plugged via USB and using Android Auto and I now seem to be gaining a % every few minutes (so a bit slower than with my OG Pixel but at least it's charging now, not staying idle / losing power when using AA).

I'd like to think that the November OTA fixed this, or at least made is less of a problem? Anybody else noticed this after November OTA? Also, i wanna say that before OTA, ambient display stayed on when using AA whereas now screen goes completely black / turns off when using it? Not sure though, but I feel like ambient display stayed on before OTA.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bkrickles:
I've posted in another forum that my experience with my 3xl and AA has been virtually identical to how my 2xl worked with AA.

I'm using the same 6 inch cables in both cars. One is a google cable from my old 6P and one is a techmatte cable.

Both work well with connection and charging.

I've never looked at what it said on my 2xl or now my 3xl. The results have been good and that is all that matters to me.

I've put several test examples on this other thread but I'll mention the one from yesterday.

I got into my 2018 Honda Accord yesterday with my battery on 69% and plugged into AA.

I traveled exactly 25 minutes using navigation, streaming music from google play music and I made one 6 minute phone call.

When I arrived and disconnected, my battery was at 85%. That's a 16% increase in 25 minutes.

That is right in line with what I got with my 2xl and I'm very pleased with that result.

Anyone looking for rapid charging like you get with your packaged charging block, I don't think that's possible with a usb port in a car even though some of you said you got that previously.

I've tested this more than a half dozen times in the past 2 weeks and my results are always similar.

Maybe it's the cables that some of you are using, but I know some have stated that they're using the same cables as they used previously just like me.

AA is one of my favorite things to use my phone for so I'm glad it's working for me and I hope the rest of you get it figured out.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
To be clear, nobody said we got rapid charging, nor do we expect it. We did, however, get "Charging," which is a normal charging rate that's perfectly reasonable. We don't/didn't get that with the 3 XL, instead getting "Charging Slowly." Same car, same cables.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bkrickles:
That's not true. I've read about this issue in several threads and some people say they were getting a charging rate of 25 to 30% in just 30 minutes which approximates rapid charging.

The point I was trying to make was that it doesn't matter what the phone says (charging or charging slowly) but how much charge are you getting in a period of time. I just got 16% in 25 minutes yesterday and that's a good rate in your car through a USB port utilizing nav and streaming music. If you're only getting 3% in that period of time well that sucks.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
The term "Rapid" is very specific, and used to reference the device indicating it's "Charging Rapidly." Regardless, we've made it clear it's not merely about the label but the actual results. The results are anywhere between gaining virtually nothing and losing power.

I'm super happy for you that yours is working great. Perhaps you can give us more specifics about the vehicle or third-party head unit you're using so your comments are helpful in us narrowing down what does and doesn't trigger this issue so it can be fixed. Otherwise it just reads as either challenging or boastful which is annoying to those of us having serious problems. To be clear, I don't think this is your intention, but I'm letting you know how it feels when read by those of us having serious problems.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bkrickles:
I just reread my original post here and it is obviously not me boasting or challenging anything. I was telling my experiences and I gave specifics regarding phone, cables and car.

I feel bad that some are having a difficult time with this and my last sentence in the post was that I'm hopeful that those with a problem figure it out because aa is an awesome feature.

Good luck to you.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Apologies, I missed the vehicle in that original post. Thank you. So now we know that for whatever reason, Hondas are working fine with it, while other makes are not. Hopefully if Google ever bothers to read this that can help narrow down some differences.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
So I was playing with the USB settings while the phone was connected to the car (2016 VW GTI) and measuring the charging current with the Ampere app and I found something interesting.

When initially connecting to the car the charging rate is very slow. Around 200 mA at most.

So then, without unplugging the device, I clicked on the USB connection options that you can access from the status bar. Most of them made no difference but then I clicked on the "USB controlled by connected device" option.

This flicked on then went back to the default setting so I thought it didn't work but when I checked the charging current it had jumped to 1200 mA.

I tried this several times and it worked every time. Can anyone else try it and see if it makes a difference with their car? Its probably a bug related to how the car and phone make the initial handshake.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] SmoovC:
[MENTION=5001409]bigdave79[/MENTION] That is very interesting and encouraging; thank you for posting this. Does it maintain that level of charge throughout the entire drive while connected?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
Yes as long as you don't disconnect the cable or change the connection options.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] micks_address:
Can this in any way damage the phone?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
I very much doubt it. The device is capable of charging at a much faster rate.

[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
Damn, I thought about checking that at the time and never did. I'm curious to hear other reports on this to see how consistent it is. But this would make SO much sense as the source of the issue, as it makes sense that if the phone is acting as the host, it potentially can't draw the same power as if it's the client.

With the Black Friday sale quickly approaching, I'm strongly considering repurchasing this phone, this time in white, and while there's a few other nagging issues, this is THE clincher for me. This trick, while mildly annoying, is still 100X better than a reboot.

Misread and correcting. So it doesn't *show* the difference, which is annoying, as it would make it easier to compare.

Does the lock screen indicate Charging instead of Charging Slowly when you make this change and it takes?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
I'm sure it's possible. I use tasker but I'm not familiar with that app. But to be honest we shouldn't have to. It's a hacky workaround. I only looked into it because I figured it was a software/handshake issue rather than hardware. Google should have fixed all these bugs during internal testing. It's been out in the open for months and I can't believe none of their testers used Android Auto (or noticed the speaker distortion, or the memory management issue, or any of the other bugs that have already been found). #rantover

You know, I didn't check what was on the lockscreen. I'll have a look tonight on my way home from work.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
I can confirm that the lockscreen goes from "Charging slowly" before the change to "Charging" after. Not sure what the mA threshold is for showing"Charging rapidly" but it must be higher than the 1000-1200 mA I am consistently seeing.

My phone went from around 78% to 92% during my 25 minute commute during which I had Android Auto active with maps navigation.
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] brholt6:
I wasn't able to get the change to stick. When I tried to switch to "connected device" it tried for awhile and then just says "couldn't switch". Any ideas? Did I miss some sort of prerequisite in there?
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
I don't get that message but you are right - the change doesn't stick in the USB connection options screen. I wrote that in my initial post. At first I thought that nothing had happened. Only way to know if it worked is to check the charging current before and after or see if the lockscreen changes from "charging slowly" to "charging".
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] TurboFool:
I think I remember the threshold being either 1.5a or 2a, so makes sense you're getting "only" "Charging." But that's really encouraging. I hope a few other people can check back in and confirm this. It'll be enough to get me to re-pull the trigger. And I'll have saved $200 over my previous attempt!
[Google Pixel 3 XL Questions & Answers] bigdave79:
Yeah I'm really annoyed I didn't wait. Didn't expect Google to drop the price that much. I thought at most a $100 or some store credit.

Sadly the switching to USB controlled by connected device isn't allowing my phone to stay charging any quicker. When I press it Android Auto completely disconnects and my phone stops charging. About 10 seconds later it starts charging at ~1200mA, but then Android Auto starts and it goes right back to charging at 300mA. Not sure what I may be doing differently.
