Android Auto problem - Android Auto General

Hey,
I have a 2016 Opel Corsa and trying to use Android Auto.
The app starts automatically when I connect the USB, and then the screen in the car is black or sometimes the menu appears, but it does not react to anything. It seems to be extremely slow or not working at all. I use Huawei P8 Lite phone.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Gabor

Make sure you don't have a flip cover turning off the phone screen, as that will make the car screen go black.
make sure you have a high quality USB cable, many cheap USB charging cables cause problem with Android Auto.

I need an LG style I...

Anyone know where to buy an lg style i that comes with a wall charger?Everything on ebay only came with a travel charger. Black would be nice, but thats not really important. Any feedback would be appreciated.
The travel charger is a wall charger. Incidentally, any mini-usb charger like the ones that come with most headsets will work.
I'm using the same charger for my X7500 and LG Style-i.
At home I plug the wall charger of my X7500 to the dock station and I place the X7500 in the dock station then I plug a USB cable to the dock and plug the Style-i to that cable so I'm charging both at the same time with only one wall charger.
At work or while I travel I use a spare wall charger I got and I charge the Style-i and the X7500 using the same charger, but I charge the X7500 first and then the Style-i (or viceversa). When traveling I use to charge the Style-i just using a USB cable connected to any PC and the X7500 with its charger or both with the X7500 charger.
USB power plugs really rocks.
Thanks for the feedback, I bought a black one on ebay. They have several for $10 plus about $6 shipping.

In case anyone was wondering, i'm pretty sure its: 0000
I don't think i've used a headset with a different passkey.

Anyone know diffent button combinations to activate things on Lg Style I? I found some, we'll start with the obvious ones.
1.Power on\off by holding 'end' button.
2.Reset hole on back. As far as I can tell this does nothing more than turn the thing off.
3.Adjust microphone gain by holding 'CLR' for about 3 seconds.
4.When conected, dial last number dialed by holding 'send' button.
5.When connected or not, hold 'CLR' button for about 5 seconds, device reads 'pairing'. On mine, I can't get this to do anything other than simply connect to my tilt and athena. Maybe we could connect the style I to athena, and pair style I with bluetooth vibrating bracelet? Just a thought.
6.When connected, press te 'send' button to activate voice command.
7.When not connected, press 'send' to look for devices.

Thanks, mine didn't come with a manual. I don't know if they were displays or surplus, but mine was in perfect condition minus owners manual. And it came in a ziploc bag.

Thanks for the update. I tried the application from JETware, but that did not work either.

[Q] [q] is there any way to flip the screen?

Hi,
One of the thing I do not like with the i9000 is the stupid fact that the micro-usb connector
is located on the top of the device, basically because my car charger is or too short, or seems to be "almost broken" when dock it to the upper side of the device.
What i want to do is to put the device up-side-down in my car holder, so the connectror
will be at the bottom, but I need a solution that can flip all the apps by 360 degree...
Is that solution available? something that force the change for all the apps? so the home button will be on top of the device?
Thanks,
Tomer
i'm loooking for the same thing, nothing yet
The Tab can rotate 360 degrees, so it should be possible to do on the SGS too. 2.2 should enable it, though I doubt it..

seems like it can be done , bit over my head though.
Would love to see that done to the Galaxy S, because it would make it really easy to build a custom dock (want to have sth. like a long bench for my PSP alongside with the Galaxy S and maybe my Sansa e250, would be made out of Aluminium with the Charging Connectors fixed into place, maybe by buying secondary USB Cable and Charger to make it into one Cable so that the Phone charges everytime but also can with the same Cable be connected to PC, some sort of Hybrid thing.)

Galaxy Note 2 - Snowy Screen when launching Android Auto

Figured I would post about my issue. I just bought a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. I tried connecting my Galaxy Note 2 to it using the USB cable provided with my phone. Once I run the App, the screen of the car shows nothing but fuzzy white snow (like the old analog TVs showed when there was no reception from the antenna), and then the snow pauses after a second. If I touch the car's screen, it reacts to my input by the snow moving again until I stop touching it.
I was first trying to connect with a CM12 Tesla build (Lollipop). I then flashed my phone with Resurrection Remix 5.6.4 (Marshmallow) and got the same thing. I've tried many tricks I've read from others who had blank screens (not snow, haven't seen anyone report that). I've also played with the Developer options, debug, HDCP and nothing made a difference. I did read that the phone has to be on MTP, but every time I plug it in it switches to USB Charge. If I select MTP after being connected, the screen on my phone refreshes itself (goes totally black for a half second) and goes back to USB charge and the car's stereo goes back to the home screen.
Anyone have any ideas on how to get it to work? Or do I need a new phone?
Same here, have you found any solutions?

Wont turn on after i turn if off...

Hello i have a MI5, and when i turn if off (shutdown) it doesn't want to turn back on... (Doesn't get recognised if i connect it to a computer does not charge...)
The only thing that works (sometimes) is if i open it up and disconnect battery connector, lcd connector and daughterboard connector.
I am on a MIUI 9 Global Beta ROM (latest) but it did the same thing on a previous version as well...
Anyone had the same issue or has any idea what i could do?
I dont have the warranty anymore...
Sounds like a hardware issue. You can try cleaning all connectors to make sure there is no stain on it. Give special attention to USB connector, this one gets stained easily.
Good luck, mate!

All sorts of problems with a Joying PX5 headunit

I'm having all sorts of problems with my head unit
Firstly, if I connect the speakers up then I get a high pitched tone through the speakers at all times. Bizarrely if I connect the white and grey cables together on the car side (ie not the head unit side) then everything seems to work. But that makes no sense.
Secondly, the buttons along the left hand side do nothing. I've been into the factory setting and tried to "retrain" it. Although I can see it reacting to the retraining nothing happens after I've finished, the buttons still don't work
Thirdly, the ACC mode does not seem to work. I've monitored with a multimeter and it doesn't matter whether there is a voltage on the ACC or not the unit turns on when there is power on the yellow cable and turns off when I disconnect that cable. I can connect this cable directly to the ignition feed but then it gets no chance to shut down when I turn off the ignition.
Fourthly, and this may not help the above. If I select shut down from the menu on the device it does nothing.
As it is this unit is pretty much useless. Whats going on? Are the cables badly labelled perhaps?
What did the reseller suggest?
Apparently they won't be back till the 4th
Hmm .. so I took it out and plugged it back in on my lap, rather than in the radio hole ... and it worked perfectly. A few oddities (such as tune in radio not working at first) but that resolved itself almost instantly.
I can only assume I hadn't plugged the black plug on the back in correctly.
*Fingers crossed it stays this way*
I m afraid youre in the wrong forum - Joying/Joyous RK3368/PX5 head units are not MTCD/E, theyve stopped making MTCD/E units completely and they never made RK336/PX5 MTCD/E units at all.
I ll get the thread moved to the Android Headunit General forum.
1. the gray and white cables are for the front speaker. the high tones are the keypad tones. you have to deactivate it in the user menu (amp must be deactivated in factory menu). the keypad tone only comes via front speaker, not magenta and green cables for the rear speaker.
2. try reflashing the firmware?
3. red is ACC, yellow is constant battery. your device is running without connect the red ACC cable?
4. with shutdown button it ONLY shutoff the display backlight and drain further 600mA. doesnt?
read the Joying intel sofia all you need to know thread. not all is same on the PX5, but its really interesting.
PS, i have the PX5 too, but have other problems like you
