[Android Auto General] Saison2018:
I also have a Niro Niro EV 2020 and my phone is a Google Pixel 5. Wireless charging is working fine in winter but not really great from spring and especially in summer. It became hot very quickly. And same as @Genebaby, my phone is a warm when running wirelessly.

Because Pixel 5 has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G, I am not sur this is only related to processor. It may be related with wireless behavior, needing much more energy than running wired.

The translation of your question that I have is:

"Hi, I don't get my Samsung Galaxy A20e connected to the dongle.It glows solid green. What do I have to do?"

The solid green LED should only appear for less than 20 seconds while the device is booting. If it goes for a longer time, there may be something wrong with the dongle hardware. It does not appear to be loading the AAWireless firmware.

Please create a New Support Ticket with AAWireless support, they may be able to help with a replacement device.

I have the latest firmware on my aawireless, android auto and android 11 etc but I have a few issues. So far the device connects fast every time without issues there however, one that is quite a deal breaker: once I end a phone call, music that I was previously streaming then comes through the phone speakers instead of Bluetooth (on aawireless default settings) I understand this issue has been reported already but thought it's worth mentioning incase Devs think it's an uncommon issue - I see another thread about this here: https://xdaforums.com/t/aa-using-my-phone-speaker-after-ending-a-phone-call.4274111/ The second issue is Google assistant seems to get cutoff with its responses quite often and I can't work out why. Car is 2018 Holden Commodore

PLEASE HELP (MAZDA 3 2018 AND SAMSUNG GALAXY S20+)

Can anyone help me? I recently just received my aawireless and my first setup process went smoothly. However on my second attempt to wait for my phone (Samsung S20+) to connect, it took awhile so I became a little worried (should of waited abit more) and I tried to troubleshoot the waiting time by unpairing it from my bluetooth devices on my phone so i can pair to it again, which i never happened. I then proceeded to do a reset by sticking a pin on the reset button, which i dont know if it worked because it doesnt signal me if it worked. (Attempted to click the reset button multiple times) The reset button did not help or change anything. However, when i went to reinstall my aawireless app, it is now prompting me to connect to an aawireless unit which I did attempt multiple times. As i tried multiple times for the app to find the device, it said device cannot be found. The LED light is always flashing a slow steady green light. Can anyone help? I have messaged Emil via Indegogo.
[Android Auto General] DMac1900:
A quick FYI for the devs;

Good news- since my phone updated to Android 11 it has been connecting to AAW and switching to mobile data without any fuss. AAW is starting up and running reliably. AAW doesn't seem to interfere with the car's app connecting & gathering trip data any more.

Bad news- I am getting regular (several times per minute) "stutters" in the audio when playing music (Rocket Player) via AA/AAW and occasional flickering of the screen. Sometimes the audio from AA just stops working altogether (even the tone when the Assistant is woken up). This happens with passthrough on or off (USB set to default). It doesn't happen with a cable connection.

2019 Citroen, Realme x2 Pro, AAW 1.9.3 firmware 1.5.0

My thanks to the AAW team for their continued efforts.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
Same as me. I'm using oneplus 7 pro on android 11. The connection will drop within a sec or so and app such as waze and spotify are still playing on the phone where on the phone it still shows AA is connected.

If i leave it untouched, it will try to connect itself again after x minutes... AAWireless is unusable for me.
[Android Auto General] hyp89:
For those how have problems with vw MIB try to change the usb mode to direct (without passthrough). With default mode i had random disconnects. With direct mode aa is working stable without any disconnects or other problems for me.

Just got my AAWireless. I was expecting to be able to connect to the car's wifi with both the phone and AAW, but that appears to not be the case. Did I miss an option somewhere?
[Android Auto General] kgollop:
Yes mine is unusable also. It's frustrating as it connects so quickly and it's an awesome bit of kit for the few minutes it works. I've tried a reset tonight as advised by support but this doesn't seem to have helped. Will try again tomorrow before I reply to them

I have Hyundai Ioniq 2017 and everything works fine except sound - the same stuttering of the sound as You have. Did You found any solution? For now I am testing passthrough mode but I can not say if it helps for now.
[Android Auto General] fbusarello:
I use it with headunit reloaded in a generic android central and it worked fine. The only problem is when it try to make a call through Android Auto. It says phone is not connected, but it is Bluetooth conected to the central. Maybe and Android/headunit reloaded issue, not aawireless. Any idea to solve that?
[Android Auto General] mele80:
Combination Kia and Honor has now worked quite good. Had problems at the beginning but forgetting AAWireless WiFi and then dismissing "no internet connection" seems to do the trick.

When Car is not running and phone still connecting AAWireless seems to be a bit problematic. Calls goes to car and phone just rings, but doesnt show who is calling.

But otherwise AAWireless is working good.
[Android Auto General] Richard Chang:
I also have this problem. My car is VW Sharan 2017 MIB2. My phone is LG V60. I sent back the original device and get the replacement recently. The problem is still there. I change the phone to Asus ZF6 but the problem is not solved.
[Android Auto General] stan79:

[Android Auto General] stan79:
I thought it might be my phone and i tried on my son's xiaomi x3 nfc. It is the same. It just disconnected itself almost instantaneously upon connected.

Will try to reset and retry again on different mode. So far I had tried default and direct both yielded the same results, keep DC.

Después de dos semanas de lucha y siguiendo los consejos del Soporte Técnico de Dragos Imbrea de AAWirelees, hemos logrado que funcione.

Unidad principal Pioneer AVH X8700BT con Android Auto y Carplay.

Teléfono Xioami MI 11 Miui 12.5.2 con Android 11.

Sabíamos que casi con certeza sería un problema de cable y este ha sido el caso en el puerto USB 2 de la unidad principal dedicada para Android Auto, tenía una extensión de cable USB macho / hembra instalada

Desmontamos el automóvil y cancelamos este cable y conectamos directamente los AAWirelees con el cable usb / c al puerto original 2 de la unidad principal y se estaba iniciando Android Auto en la pantalla principal, demorando ahora entre 10/15 segundos en jugar un poco.

Gracias.

Hi, I have had my AAWireless device for several months now and it's worked without issue. Suddenly today I realized that it wasn't connecting anymore. After looking at the device I see it is sitting at a solid green LED and doesn't seem to fully boot. I have tried resetting it several times and I also tried using my wifes phone to see if I could pair it with her phone since I am using the Android 12 beta and no luck. Any ideas of what the issue could be? Or do I possibly have a defectove device?
[Android Auto General] shoelessjoej:
Just got my unit today. Plugged into my 2020 Bolt LT, using my Samsung S10+. Works like a charm. Definitely worth the wait.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
I just raise a support ticket with AAWireless as well. Initially, i thought it is my phone but I tried on my son's phone and it will disconnect within a sec to a few sec but on the phone, it will still say AA is connected with waze and Spotify still running. It is totally unusable and yes, mine is a 2020 VW Sharan too. Seems that it AAWireless doesn't work on VW cars?
[Android Auto General] jkDave:
Just received mine yesterday and seeing GPS update issues. Updated device firmware to 1.5.0. 2020 F150, Samsung Galaxy S21Ultra.

When it starts it has my location initially but then just searches for my location constantly, it never updates. I'll drive 10+ miles for 20+ minutes and it simply never updates. Audio and all other features seem to work. Any thoughts?

I just got mine yesterday and have the latest firmware. I have connected successfully to my 20p15 Mazda 3, but when I got in the car later, it took 10 minutes to reconnect.

Others here have referred to an AA Wireless Support Page, but 3 DuckDuckGo searches have failed to provide a URL. Can someone post here please via reply?
[Android Auto General] jkDave:
Open the AAWireless Config app on your phone. Click help and support. There is a FAQ button which will take you there.
[Android Auto General] Michael in ATL:
Thank you. I was thinking there was a site, but I'll check that out.

Is there anyway to manually reflash the firmware on these units? In my case for mine that is stuck at a solid green LED and won't boot. I am trying desperately to get this thing working again.
[Android Auto General] DevAuto:
It is not possible (yet) to connect both devices to the car's wifi. They need to be directly connected to each other to work. Connecting through a wifi hotspot (car's wifi) is a possible future update.
[Android Auto General] xXTaterXSaladXx:
I tried searching so please forgive me if I asked a question that has already been answered. So far I'm loving the AAWireless dongle but I'm experiencing a break in audio every so often. I'm almost certain it happens whenever there is another wifi signal in the area because it happens every time I pull into my driveway. It happens if a car that has wifi onboard comes near as well, it happened when my friend came over, she has wifi in her car and whenever I get close to a business that has wifi. It can be annoying at times. Is there a setting or anything that can help? Or maybe I have it all wrong and that's not the case. Maybe coincidence?
[Android Auto General] tallleroy:
Try the 'Force 2.4Ghz' setting in the app.
[Android Auto General] NikhilV97:
Hi, apologies if this was asked already but I have a Samsung S20 5G Exynos version and a VW Polo 2017 model. AAwireless does work but only connects for 30 seconds before I get the message "AAwireless was disconnected" on my car. I have tried using a different cable and changed settings in the AAWireless app but I cannot seem to solve this issue. Would someone please be able to suggest a solution otherwise I don't see the point to keep my AAwireless.

[Android Auto General] smurteira:
I just received my AAWireless a couple days ago and wanted to share my experience so far. I bought it from my 2017 VW Passat. Was able to set it up and get it connected, with no issues. However, like many here, I'm getting disconnects every few minutes, which really is annoying and basically renders the device unusable for my Passat.

However, I also have a 2018 VW Atlas and when I drive that car it works without any issues or disconnects whatsoever (Same phone). I did a 2 hour drive yesterday, no issues. Did another 2 hour drive today, again no issues at all.

So I really don't think this is phone specific at all. I think the AAWireless unit has issues with some car head units.

For now the unit is staying in my wife's car since it is working really well there. Really do wish the developers would get to the bottom of it so I can buy another unit for my car.
[Android Auto General] xXTaterXSaladXx:
I tried that with no success.

Phone: Motorola One 5G Ace

Head Unit: JVC KW-M750BT
[Android Auto General] stan79:
What is your HU that runs on your Passat and Atlas? Mine is the MIB 2 on my Sharan and it seems that the disconnection issue happens on MIB 2. Once it is disconnected, waze and spotify will still be running on the phone and even on the phone, AA will report that it is connected. And if I manually click on the HU to connect, it will say that it is unable to connect and reboot the AAWireless. Solid blue light turns into solid green -> blinking green -> blinking blue -> solid blue. Then it will reconnect and AA displays on HU.

However, within seconds, it will disconnect and the cycle repeats. The AAWireless is totally unusable at all.
[Android Auto General] NikhilV97:
This is literally what's happening to me. I'm really hoping there's a fix in the works otherwise as you said it's just unusable.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
I dropped AAWireless an email via their AAWireless Config app yesterday but no reply. Not sure it is the newer/ recent batch having this issue. I got mine earlier this week and had been testing it for the past few days with various different configurations, reset, clearing AA app cache and data but none works. When did u receive yours?
[Android Auto General] NikhilV97:
Mine arrived on Friday last week. Yeah I've been doing the same with all the different settings trying to get it to be stable but nothing works.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
I guess we are from the same batch. Might be this current batch isn't working.

Do email to AAWireless support.... I'm yet to get a reply from them.
[Android Auto General] bendsley:
Having an issue between Audi MMI and Galaxy S20 5G. Phone connects without issue, everything works...and then there is a disconnect and my car drops out of AA and back into normal MMI mode. The MMI is fully updated, the phone is on latest from AT&T, the AAw is on latest firmware. I've tested all number of AAw settings iterations. The AAw has all permissions, nothing is set to sleep..

I just can't seem to keep these two connected.

I've emailed support which was a waste of time. That was like banging my head against the wall.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
Yes i fully agree with u. The support finally replied my email but as usual as if I had set this n that. I told them i had and had tried all options.

It seems that there is this disconnection issue on VW group HU MIB2. Is your Audi HU also using MIB2 or MIB3?
[Android Auto General] bendsley:
Using MIB2.
[Android Auto General] stan79:
Same as mine. AAWireless isn't working with MIB2.
[Android Auto General] DMac1900:
A couple of Android Auto updates later (I'm a beta tester now, on v. 6.7.612924-release) I haven't noticed an audio stutter recently (with or without navigation running at the same time), but I'm still seeing the odd bit of flickering on the screen (either the whole screen flickering, or just a small part around a dialogue/dropdown box). Using default settings other than DPI (which I have increased to show a bit more of the map).
[Android Auto General] don1199:
For me sound stuttering almost gone after passthrough mode enabled. Maybe 1 or 2 glitches in an hour.
[Android Auto General] valeri_s_k:
Just FYI - my Passat has MIB2 and all is running smoot, without disconnections.
[Android Auto General] rochrunner:
My contributor ID is 7070 so I assume I'm in an early batch, and I have just a couple of questions that I've been wondering about.

1) Is there a User Guide (doubt it!) or is everything I need to know in the app?

2) What is the communication technology between the AAWireless unit and my phone? Bluetooth? Wifi direct? Or ???
[Android Auto General] TheUntouchable:
2) First bluetooth then a WIFI hotspot on the device.
[Android Auto General] morback:
I'll try with google maps and compare AAWireless / wired.

I also enabled location at all times for Waze, it was 'when app running only'.

Battery optimization was already off for Waze, not even accessible for Android auto on my Oneplus phone. Looks like @TheUntouchable experiences the same problem. I'll make further tests with maps too. Not using my car this afternoon anymore so I'll give results tomorrow. Thanks for your answer :)
[Android Auto General] rochrunner:
So I'll have to enable the wifi hotspot on my phone each time I get into the car and want to use AA?
[Android Auto General] TheUntouchable:
Nope, with device I meant the AAwwireless ;) It first connects via bluetooth to the phone and tells it to connect to its hotspot, everything is done automatically.
[Android Auto General] rochrunner:
OK, I understand now. Thanks!
[Android Auto General] Tikerz:
How are phone calls? Are phone calls through the bluetooth connection to the car or WiFi of AA? Any delays in audio?
[Android Auto General] DevAuto:
I don't have the device yet, but I am using AAGateway and I think from the info I've seen so far, phone calls should be handled by the car and there should not be any delays in audio. If I got it wrong, @Emil Borconi will probably correct me. :D

[Android Auto General] hamlet84:
Hi all.

I just received the unit. I can confirm that works fine with VW Polo and OnePlus Nord (Android 11).

I noticed two issues:

- there is a (micro) lag with respect to a normal cabled setting

- the resolution (i.e the aspect ratio) is different. I know that there is a way to change DPI, but not ratio.

Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks
[Android Auto General] DevAuto:
@Tikerz I've been trying to find the exact info but I don't remember where I saw it. Essentially I think what I read is something along the lines of the following:

AAWireless and the phone connect momentarily via bluetooth for passing wifi credentials to the phone. The wifi link is then established between the phone and AAWireless for all other AA communications and the phone then connects over bluetooth to the head unit for calls.

If I can find it, I'll come back and quote it directly. It may have been in the comments on the Indiegogo page. There are a ton of comments there now, and no way to search them, so I may not ever find it again. :D
[Android Auto General] DevAuto:
With regards to the (micro) lag, I believe that could be byproduct of doing everything over wireless, but I am not positive, @Emil Borconi can better address it if I am incorrect.

As for the aspect ratio, adjusting the dpi settings might force the phone to negotiate a better ratio for the resolution. I would make small adjustments to see if you can find a dpi setting that works better with your phone and head unit combination. I would not go more than increments of 5 or 10 dpi at a time, you could potential jump past the range that would allow a resolution to fix the ratio. It also may not help at all, I just don't know what it will do for certain yet, and I don't really have a way to test it.
[Android Auto General] porotikos:
Hi guys and hello to the creator. this is really a very promising device that i am thinking to purchase. but i would like to ask some questions.

I have a kia picanto that was made in january 2020. To be honest i dont know if it ισandroid auto wireless, capable, (the facelift model that came out few months later, is), but most probably i will need this device. i need to ask this:

my kia has only one usb available (if it had 2, my problems would be solved). So if i plug via usb this aawireless device, i have no other usb to connect my ssd. so, if i plan to have my aawireless hooked in all the time, whenever i want to listen to music from my ssd, i have to unhook it and hook the ssd.

So, the aawireless, does it have another usb to hook some ub stick to it, and so it can be "seen" by the car infotainment? if the aawireless doesnt have a usb input, is there a possibillity to be inplemented innit, in another future revision of the device? This way, we wouldnt lose the capabillities of the only usb in the car. i am sure this would be helpful for many people.

ps. perhaps another workaround would be if i could plug the aawireless, in the cars obd. is there a future possibillity for it to work from there. get an obd device that has a usb out, connect the aawireless there, and then the original usb in my car would also be free to be used for anything else

ps2. i have tried splitting the usb port but it doesnt work. once you split the usb port with a hub, it doesnt recognise anything connected there.

apologies if this is kind of offtopic
