I am still getting the no device supported error with no recovery but to forget aawireless in the HU and unplug/replug the aawireless device, but I think I have it narrowed down to a particular scenario.

If I shut the vehicle off and the HU powers down, but the USB port keeps power to the aawireless device and I walk far enough away that the phone and aawireless device lose connectivity then come back to the vehicle and key on like normal I get the no supported device error.

If I am gone from the vechicle long enough that the USB port powers down, I have no issues when I come back.

If I turn the vehicle off and the aawireless device still has power and I am only a few feet away {like when getting fuel), I have no issues when returning to the vehicle.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Aaah, that's very good information! Then we know where to look.

To confirm: when you get the unsupported message, you have to clear the HU, replugging doesnt help?

I added this info to: https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/128
[Android Auto General] Aberk:
I have to clear the HU and reset power to the device. Only resetting power to the device results in the unsupported message again.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
For fun, can you try the "MTP with retry" mode in this same situation?
[Android Auto General] pacogeno:
baje el firmware de la 2.0.1 a la 2.0.0 no me puedo conectar por bluetooth y con el firmware 2.0.0 no tuve problema mi conexion es Aawireless xupwIhlE
[Android Auto General] sc00bydoo:
Thanks. Hopefully a future miui update will sort out this issue.

I'm on 13.0.9 and I've heard this may be working.

Is there anyway to test if my phone has the issue before purchasing the aawireless?
[Android Auto General] FrankieG64:
I am running the dev f/w from 6/10/22 along with the dev app. So far today AAW reconnected each time I returned to the truck. I do not get the "Device not supported" message. Dongle mode and start/stop enabled, plain MTP for the USB setting.

2020 Ram 1500, 12" Uconnect, Samsung S10.
[Android Auto General] mnunes:
So interesting. The pattern I'm seeing by watching Uconnect user posts appears to be that people with the older 8.4" Uconnect (like UAQ and UCQ) have better luck on the older 1.8 and 1.12 firmware with USB in "normal" mode, but users with the 10" Uconnect (like UAX) are having better luck with 2.x and USB in "MTP" mode.

@sthrnsprtsmn, @Bjd223, @koolboyztn, @bagadj, @Aberk

Does that agree with what you're seeing?
[Android Auto General] FrankieG64:
I was actually not having much luck with the 2.x released firmware. Every day or so AAW refused to connect and I would have to remove AAW from the Uconnect projection setting and reboot AAW. 1.8 was somewhat stable, but I still had some occasional connection issues. Since testing with the dev f/w provided by @Snirpo I have had pretty consistent reliability.
[Android Auto General] koolboyztn:
I'm driving 2019 RAM 1500 with uconnect 4 and running dev firmware but every day or so AAW refused to connect and I would have to remove AAW from the Uconnect projection setting and reboot AAW, what settings are you using right to resolve this issue?
[Android Auto General] Jonty1976:
Did you ever resolve this?

I'm having the same problem trying to update from 1.8.0 to 2.0.1.

I've tried with AAWireless device connected to car with solid blue LED, with device to AC power source and PC USB (flashing blue LED). I don't have a VPN.

Thanks!
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Can you update to the latest version and switch to MTP USB mode?
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
This may be your issue: https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/129

What phone do you have btw?
[Android Auto General] Jonty1976:
Thanks, will check that out.

I'm using a Xiaomi Mi Mix 3, with custom rom (Pixel Experience) and rooted.
[Android Auto General] Aberk:
With my UAQ, I was running 1.12 with no issues until one morning it no longer worked. Upgrading to 2.0.1(I never tried 1.8) didn't have any affect on my issue. It was as if my head unit had an update overnight and now the aawireless folks are having to figure out how to compensate for whatever was released to the HU.
[Android Auto General] sthrnsprtsmn:
I have the Uconnect 12, and after updating to 2.0.0 and 2.0.1, I have had a constant fight with it. I will get it working one day, then it quits the next. When it does this, AA does not come up on the radio, but my phone says AA is running. I did not try any other f/w between 1.7 and 2.0.

Last night I had time to try more settings, and got it to work with everything on default, with dongle mode enabled. It took about 10 tries to get dongle mode enabled to stick, but after it did, it immediately went to working. After I got it working, I tried all the USB modes and they worked without issue. The only thing I noticed, though, is that my AAWireless identifier has changed on my phone.

@Snirpo, my first post was supposed to be attached to your post about trying the test f/w. If you are willing to send it my way, I am willing to try it.

Thanks
[Android Auto General] FrankieG64:
I'm using the dev app mentioned here: https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/128#issuecomment-1145136693. USB is set to MTP, start/stop and dongle mode enabled. In start/stop it is set for "device usb controlled". That's about it, everything else is left at default. Last week I had 4 solid days of connections until I tried some different settings for the Dev. Now back to the settings mentioned above and is has been working well for a couple of days.
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Similar case here also:

Random drops with 2.0.1, passat b8 with discover pro (I suppose technisat). What I've tried so far:

*Vw crash fix, not.working drops connection even without music app

*Disabled wifi scan location

*Changed to passtrough

*Changed usb mode to direct

*Changed to high port hotspot 5ghz

*Changed to 2.4 ghz hotspot

*Tried the tinfoil thing....

So annoying, random drops within 1 or 10 max.Don't know if trying dongle mode would work or 1.8 firmware...pretty frustrated with this HU which is present in a lot.of cars..dissapointed

Any help will be greatly appreciated, when the system works it's the best
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Tested dongle, same issue...connection drops...
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
I've installed aawireless to the opel crossland x. In settings I have set pass through enabled. Only with this option it works with a Samsung S10e. The problem I have is that AA does not start automatically. I have to wait for maybe a minute and must start AA at the head unit manually.

Any solution there?
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
We figured it out, I updated the issue: https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/128
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Actually all cars with this issue seem to be only Passat B8. You can track this issue here. https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/124 .

The dongle also fully reboots in your situation right? Back to solid green.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Mostly this is because of power saving settings on the phone. Please make sure Android Auto (so ot the AAW companion app) is excluded from any power saving / not optimized.
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
It isn't optimized. Power saving was removed view weeks ago.
[Android Auto General] koolboyztn:
I tried the setting you advised but after that the AAW stuck on white LED and bluetooth on the phone show couldn't connect to AAW, fyi using 12" Uconnect.
[Android Auto General] FrankieG64:
I have the 12" Uconnect as well. The other thing I did each time I changed anything in the AAW settings was to remove AAW from the Uconnect projection settings, then unplug AAW and plug it back in.
[Android Auto General] mnunes:
I've found this to be very helpful, too. Even if it connects once after changing the settings, it seems far more reliable going forward if you do the remove and re-add.
[Android Auto General] koolboyztn:
Will try to do it again later, too hot to seat in the car right now.
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Yes, exactly what is described there! What should I do?
[Android Auto General] koolboyztn:
Well, after multi try, it still hit and miss when it wont connect.
[Android Auto General] Jonty1976:
Thanks, managed to update using the alpha version of app as per github link. Now the app keeps telling me there's an update available even though it's updated to latest 2.0.1
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
That's correct, alpha app can always update for testing. But good, then it's fixed :) Will release new version of the app somewhere this week.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
I'm debugging this issue, but what you can try is an Y splitter cable to seperate the power source. 2x male to 1x female.
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Seeing a lot of.those cables not compatiblenwith AA. Any links of the ones you're trying? The setup will be something like the Y cable and then plug the AAW and on the other adapter plug a male male usb to a different power source right?
[Android Auto General] wollj09:
io have an auto problem Hunday i 30 ,It connects bud Android Auto is not smooth and the streaming skips.....I have tried all the settings
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Yeah, thats what i've ordered: https://www.amazon.com/ANRANK-Extension-Adapter-Splitter-Y-Cable/dp/B07PV8ZN1X/ref=sr_1_13?crid=2BONZRVEFCUOF&keywords=Y+splitter+usb+2x+male&qid=1655101731&sprefix=y+splitter+usb+2x+male,aps,147&sr=8-13

Just to rule out any power related issues.

The device fully reboots on the passat B8, happens with both gen1 of the device and gen2. I'm not 100% sure if it's power related, but I've not seen this on any other car / HU. Doesn't seem to be happening on all Passats either.
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
I can try that, this one will work right?

[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Can you try the USB mode: "MTP with retry" Apparently on Uconnect the HU gets in a bad state when the HU side kills the USB connection.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Yup, no guarantee it will fix it though. It's only for a test to exclude any power related issues.
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Ordered it, I will test it tomorrow and update...if it doesn't work I 'll just send it back not a problem
[Android Auto General] Arismfg:
Found a workaround for sygic speedometer issues. Disabling high accuracy on gps settings on my samsung s8 plus (which used wifi and BT to attain accurate gps location) fixed sygic speedometer using wired connection on AA. However, using AA wireless, sygic speedometer is still stucked at certain speed. At the same time, I checked gps signal on phone using gps apps and it is fine. Any ideas how to fix? Maybe something is causing intereference (as phone using gps, wifi and BT at the same time?) or maybe can try a different setting on AAwireless?
[Android Auto General] Arismfg:
I also wonder if sygic latest version has been tested with AAwireless by anyone
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Turn on passthrough, if it still happens in passthrough, it's not an AAW issue, but something in AA.
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
After updating the head unit in crossland x I can disable the pass through and it works with the default settings but it still doesn't starts automatically AA!?

Should I try an older app version where I can set force autostart?
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Please try "MTP with retry" that will most likely fix it.
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Please try to follow troubleshooting in the companion app. I guess the device keeps blinking green?
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
No everything is fine and the LED is solid blue but I have to start AA manually at the head unit screen!? I haven't found any option in the troubleshooting of the companion app for this case!?
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Aaahh. Auto video focus it's called. But it's also built into AA itself these days.
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
Yes I know but it doesn't works in combination of the crossland x unit and the Samsung S10e. 🤷🏻‍♂️
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Does it work wired?
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
I'll have a look tomorrow and will inform you.
[Android Auto General] koolboyztn:
will try that and report back if still running into issue, thanks.
[Android Auto General] 1qazwsx4:
That auto focus option within android auto settings never worked for me wirelessly, when enabling it from AAW it then functions correctly
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
Ah ok. But in my app this option doesn't show up anywhere!? Which version do you use?
[Android Auto General] sc00bydoo:
Before I order one, is it working with internet access on miui.

Reading back I see people couldn't get internet access when connected to the aawireless but that was back in 2021.

Is it fixed now?
[Android Auto General] martin.armstrong:
scroll down in the settings screen
[Android Auto General] hocuspocus69:
No...but you can switch manually to mobile data on your smartphone and everything works!
[Android Auto General] Aki o:
Well I tried and the connections isbway more faulty, most.of the times it won't even connect and will come back to solid/blinking blue.It's way more stable with the normal cable. any ideas? It's very frustrating
[Android Auto General] sc00bydoo:
Thanks but how do you switch manually? And do you have to do it everytime you get in the car?
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
No sorry at this point we have no idea. I'll try to rent one, but there's a good chance it will just work fine.
[Android Auto General] le_mi:
Option is enabled but nothing happens.

There is no autostart if the phone is wired. I've test it wired and wireless with a pixel 5 to and there is also no autostart.

The thing I don't understand is, in my german forum is a guy and his AA is starting automatically with a Samsung S7!?

Simple Question: After my car is turned off, my Phone still tries to connect to android auto. Calls near my car are still routed to aawireless, so I doesn't recognise a ingoing call. If anwser the call, audio is still routed to my car (aawireless is powered off). How can I stop android auto (or aawireless) try to connect my car?

[Android Auto General] Aberk:
Doing this results in the same repair required, but different symptoms. When I return to the car, the HU acts as if there is no AAW device plugged in. There is no device not supported message. Nothing appears to be connecting.
[Android Auto General] arzoo1:
AAWireless has been working pretty well for us using pass-through mode (won't connect otherwise with our Hyundai). One question I have; is there any easy way to switch between two active phones? If my wife and I are both in the vehicle and my phone is connected to AA/AAWireless, there doesn't seem to be any easy way to switch AA over to her phone. If I kill wifi on my phone, AA just turns it back on. I had thought the app would allow switching between two active phones but I don't see that?
[Android Auto General] milanxx:
As I wrote so I use Start / stop, it works perfectly, no outages. Only occasionally 1 of the 20 rides will the unit remain on the screen indicating the connected AA device, I have to click on it and then confirm the connection. So it is not a problem between mobile and AAW but between AAW and the car unit.

Anybody else noticing that AA Google Maps seems stuck on Night Mode lately? Not sure what to do about it, I've tried wiping AA and re-pairing wired and wireless.

Interesting. Yeah it doesn't respond to any of the auto-daylight settings in AA or AA Dev options. Something must have changed, in the AA Beta perhaps.
[Android Auto General] cybrg4life:
Hello

I see that you have the same phone as I have (F3) with the same firmware, can you please share your AAW settings with me, because it seems that my dongle won't stay connected more than 30 minutes. Thank you!!!
[Android Auto General] festor:
I have the same issue, but it’s due to MIUI and not AAWireless or app settings. Since MIUI 12.5x (dependant on phone model) there’s a bug that causes disconnections with stock Android Auto wireless and all of the third-party dongles. Losing data connection or lowering mobile signal causes wireless to cut out briefly which forces an AA disconnection.

It’s bizarre that this issue has gone on for so long and it’s not even listed on any of the Xiaomi/MIUI bug trackers. Changing to another carrier that has better 4G coverage in my area and enabling VoLTE lowered the number of disconnections I get, but they can still happen. You can recreate the issue by disabling data or manually lowering your mobile signal:

It doesn’t seem to affect other manufacturers and it's the main reason I won’t be going with Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco in the future.
[Android Auto General] cybrg4life:
Thanks for the quick response!!!

I didn't know about this problem with xiaomi brand, it's really a shame, I've already tryed this with both of my sim (different providers) and is happening the same....it seems that is time to change my phone....

Same. pixel 6 Pro. 2017 Golf. If I turn my headlights on then off it reverts back to daytime, but reverts back to night mode as soon as I restart the car.
[Android Auto General] ddiehl:
I've not read thru all the pages in this thread, but what are the ideal settings for a 2017 Golf. Not sure what MIB unit I have but it's non NAV and has the control unit in the dash with one SD card slot.

What are the ideal settings for those with Golfs?

I do get some instances where the music cuts out, and sometimes it either starts straight into AA or I have to select it on the screen. Neither are deal breakers, but still bothersome.
[Android Auto General] gerrya:
Had this working fine for months, only issue was "Device not supported" but just clicked that away and it always worked on 1.8. Upgraded to 2.01 and now about 50% of the time my phone connects to the Uconnect and to the AAwireless but no projection. I usually just restart the AAWireless by pulling down status bar on phone and doing it there and then it connects. When this happens Im getting 2 fast blue blinks on the status light. I reset the device through troubleshooting in the app, only thing I turned on was the start/stop which Ive always had enabled and it always worked.

[Android Auto General] racmar:
arzoo1,

I have this issue also, but with a KIA Sorento. The solution I have found is to use the car's head unit and change the bluetooth phone it's connected to. On my car the procedure is to 1) click phone button on dash, 2) choose change phone, 3) choose my wife's phone, 4) wait patiently :)
[Android Auto General] Snirpo:
Working on it. https://github.com/cpebit/aawireless-issues/issues/128

Quick solution is to downgrade. If you pass me your device name I'll set it back to 1.8 or 1.12.

1.8 worked great

Regarding the broken day / nightmode cycle:

I also have this problem, and I read a few days ago that it was due to a combination of updated Google Maps and Android Auto.

The combination which should work:

Android Auto: 7.5.621344

Google Maps: 11.31.1

You finde all these old versions on apkmirror.com, or similar sites.

Didn't have the time to check this out myself.
[Android Auto General] NNNCube:
Same issue for me: Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G + 2019 CR-V. Stuck on "Loading". Enabling PassThrough fixes the issue. Thx!
[Android Auto General] bertsmelik:
I had this same problem. Found out it woud be caused to 11.31.1 and upwards. Found the solution on Google Maps Help.​

I installed Maps 11.35.0 beta (from apk mirror) and all seems to work well again. My AA is level 7.7.622134 (from play store).​

Tried a lot of different variations, but my conclusion is that Maps from 11.33.1 is the culprit.
[Android Auto General] osm0sis:
Can confirm! I left the AA beta program with no luck from the downgrade, but updating to that beta build for Maps worked! Thanks for your help!

Hi.

So I got my AAWireless dongle today.

My phone is a OnePlus 9 Pro (Android 12 - OxygenOS) and my car is a skoda fabia (2022)

I kinda think I got the dongle working.

What I did first was an OTA to latest firmware version cos dongle came with v1.2

The Head unit shows my Phone as the AA Device.

without passthrough mode, I see AA in the headunit, but after a few seconds connection is gone. This is looping.

only with passthrough mode everything seems working.

(couldn't test more then 15min, cos of heatwave today)

As I would like to use all features, what else could I try to get the dongle connected without passthrough mode ?

Hi,

im looking forward to buy AAwireless for my Ford Puma 2020 (Ford Sync 3, latest Version installed).

Im using a Oppo find X2 Neo with Android 12.

Are there any known issues for this combination of Car & Phone?

I want to install the AAWireless to my armrests USB, so that it is invisible inside of the car.

But this car has a USB-C port in the armrest. Is there a way to use a adapter or another USB-C to USB-C cable?

Had to try a lot of cables to connect my phone (with most cables the connection got lost after a few minutes) and now im not sure if AAWireless will work without any problems if i use other cables or adapters.
