Did you mange to establish a successful connection with Android Auto? - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Hi folks,
I've been struggling for almost two weeks to got OP3T work with Android Auto. I know it's not only me who is having such issue. The connection itself may be established be it randlomy disconnects after few minutes or even seconds.
Do you have any clue what is going on?
There is a ticket open on OP forums, people are having exactly the same issue.

It is an interface in your car. It lets you mirror android to the built in mulitmedia system in a vehicle. There are only main features like dialer, maps, spotify. Works great if you travel a lot and the voice commands helps. Totally hands free.
You gotta have a car which supports Android Auto obviuosly.
I drive Opel Astra MY2017.

I had to download an apk, since AA is not yet officialy released where I live.

Android auto works flawless for me now that I have a Oneplus 3t. It Never worked when I had the LG V10. You may want to see if it's a problem with the headunit itself and bring it to the dealer.
I have a 2017 Ford Fusion.

I never had any problems on LG G4 and same vehicle. Once switched to OP3T start having difficulties. It's not only me.

Doesn't work with OOS.
I tried, and tried to get my op3t to work with android auto, but everything I tried failed. I recently started rooting, and was able to use android auto with LineageOS, and RR roms. Turns out these
two are based on ASOP, not OOS.
So far Resurrection Remix 5.8.2 has been the most stable, and have had zero issues with Android Auto.
I don't know why OOS doesn't handle this well (at least for me), but I hope they fix it. I really like OOS, except for that one bug which is a big one for me.

Have the issue..Have not found a work around.

On any OOS build i got it to work but it will freeze when phone gets hot... When I use any other rom it works flawlessly... Right now I'm on Phoenix AOSP extended and works great..

No issue here. I'm using cheap 3rd party USB and on a Kenwood unit.

Well this is disappointing. Android Auto is one of the main features I'm looking for in my next car which I plan to get this year...

Works without a problem on my Nexus 6p and now on my 3t Car is a Civic 2016

Recently purchased a 3T and having the same issue with OOS 4.1.3. My (soon to be sold unless I go refund my 3T) Nexus 6p never had an issue with AA w/ 2016 Golf GTI.
After reading the official forum's support thread (linked in OP), I updated to the recent Open 5 Beta and gave the "change to MIDI" for USB options a shot and it works for a period of time ~10-15 min but then the OS switches back to USB charging. I have to do the same procedure again to get another short successful duration out of AA. I have roughly a dozen different branded Type C cables and only 2/10 of them work with this method (the official Dash cable being one of them).
I'm going to give RR / Lineage a go and see if they can produce steady AA connections. Since I'm also still playing Pokemon Go I can't root / will have to try the Magisk route. I currently can't seem to get my Pokemon Go Plus to Bluetooth sync with the Go app on either 4.1.3 or Open 5.

Pioneer Next 4100

So my radio came in today and android auto doesn't work. It says my phone was not compatible. I have a rooted note 4 running android 5.0.2 (cm 12). I also used my fiancée sg5 with the new stock 5.0 and it still doesn't work! Anybody care to help?
Anybody?
Did you try calling pioneer?

Close on the weekend
There are YouTube videos of car audio installers using it so it has to work
Same here, I have an HTC One M8 rooted and its not working for me either. I read the manual and apparently you need a CD-MU200 interface cable from pioneer. Don't know if that's bulls**t or not, but we'll find out. I have the USB setup so that I can use the built-in port in my car. I don't know if that's what the reason is or not. I'll have to call pioneer on Monday.

Well that's three people with the same problem
I think you need the Google apps loaded for one thing, and having an account enabled may be even better.
Lollipop is essential at this time, and I think 5.1 is even better.
Nexus also has a better chance of working.
I am trying to get developer mode working and I am mainly using my Nexus 7 2012 w/ 5.1 because my 2013 N7 and N9 both are still on 5.0.
But its just about api21 that AA runs on. 5.1 has api22 and its confirmed AA is working on "normal" lollipop, I mean 5.0.x
I'm running 5.0.1 on my M8 and Android Auto isn't working

Also it's important to have latest GMS installed.

Check version you need, download it and install. I can bet all of you have old versions (as I was surprised some time ago that it's not updating and I was stuck on 6.x when for months there was 7.x available)

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately it didn't work for me. I went on the reviews for android auto app on Google play and it seems a lot of other people are having the same issue.
Theres a new update on pioneer site, but didn't fix problem.
Maybe
You can generally find the Android Auto button located on the home screen of your car's digital display. How to navigate to the home screen will vary by manufacturer, so check your car's user guide.
I plugged in my phone, found the Android Auto button, but it won't open.
If this is the first time you’re using Android Auto in a particular car, be sure to unlock your phone and accept the terms and conditions on your phone’s screen after you’ve connected and touched the Android Auto button on your display.
Also, make sure that the "Only connect to known cars" setting in the Android Auto app is unchecked.
The voice command button takes me out of Android Auto.
My USB cable isn't working.
Not all USB cables will work with all cars. Your car's user guide should have information about the best USB cable to connect your phone to the display.

Hi,
New version of AA is in the Play Store! v1.5.100945 v1.6.226040 (2710411-release).
After initial tests, it's seems to be more robust in connectivity with the HU... less disconnections and more fast connection. Even more, more robust with the HeadUnit Android App (thank you, Mike!).

The ARM64 version of 1.6 appeared to work on my Priv. Version v1.5.100945 shows a date of March 23, 2016 on the Web Play Store and December 2, 2015 on the Priv Play store. Go figure.
I also received an email from Google yesterday saying 1.6 would be released yesterday and that it would fix my connection problems. It didn't. The version on the mirrors didn't anyway.

I have it running on my Nexus 9 and Nexus 6p, both running most recent Android N dev preview.
The old self mode works reliably again now ! (SP2P on latest released Jan 20 version of my Headunit app).
So Google fixed the Android Auto over Wifi stuff ; perhaps some OEMs are working on AA over Wifi now.
Sadly, didnt fix any issues I had with my 2016 vw and note 4. AA still has alot of work to do

AA can run over Wifi instead of USB. Google has never announced this. Apple has, for CarPlay, but theirs is still in perpetual beta.
I've done it, but it can lag a bit if your airwaves/wifi is congested.
It also always disconnects sooner or later, but I could probably nake it auto-reconnect with some work.
IMO, the practicality of AA over Wifi (or Apple CarPlay) is limited. Phones usually need to charge, particularly with GPS, Wifi, BT, data and phone calls and multiple apps all sucking up battery and getting the phone warm.

I know, this is the reason I always connect my phone when driving my car.
However, for 10 minutes or less driving time, why I need to connect the phone for charging? AA is by far, more powerful than the car's MIB head. So, I prefer to have the option of using WiFi when the USB is not connected.
After this discussion, please, can you explain how to run AA over Wifi?

Bluetooth Metadata issues after Nougat Upgrade

Hi guys,
For those that have Bluetooth in your cars and use apps like SoundCloud, Pandora, etc., have you had issues with track information being displayed correctly?
Ever since I upgraded my Nexus 6 to nougat, the track information seems to be routed differently by the phones Bluetooth to my car's aftermarket Bluetooth receiver. Same has happened with my wife's Nexus 6 after she upgraded last week.
Both phones were working fine when on marshmallow using the same apps...Nothing else different other than upgrading to Nougat.
The only app that shows the metadata correctly on the main screen is the Play Music app. For all other 3rd part apps, I have to select "Channel List" and then I can see the track name. That was not the case with Marshmallow. All apps showed the metadata at the main screen where now it just displays some random numbers.
I know it's not the 3rd party music apps because they all display the metadata correctly when I have my work iPhone connected to my car.
Had the same problem on stock as well as Pure and Nitrogen. It's so frustrating because I don't have the slightest of clue on how I can go about figuring out what, if anything, has changed with the Bluetooth profile.
Any help or feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Ok first you need to understand a few things.
1. Just because it works on an Iphone doesnt mean anything when talking about android apps. They are completely different OSs as well as completely different apps. Built completely separately with different SDK
2. Just because it worked on the last update doesnt mean it will work on this.
As google play music works, that says they changed something in the 7.x update that broke the other apps. They will need to be updated to work with the change in the code.

Yup... Definitely understand that iOS and Android are 2 complete different bases...I tested with the iPhone to make sure that the aftermarket Bluetooth receiver in the car was not the problem.
I do believe it's something that Google has changed and I'm starting to realize that the only option I may have is to wait and see.
One point I want to add is that the Nougat update did not break anything when it comes to connecting to my wife's Acura with built in Bluetooth. The track info continues to work fine..
I was hoping someone with more in depth knowledge of the Android systems maybe be able to chime in on what could have changed...I know the 3rd party apps i use have gone through multiple updates since Nougat came out so if they were gonna update something due to compatibility with Nougat, it would've happened already.

Exactly same issue here in my '15 Civic Si with Shamu, Victara, and Titan, Bluetooth metadata breaks after the first pairing/connection. Once Bluetooth is interrupted, either by shutting off car or disconnecting Bluetooth, metadata never displays again until I either clean flash ROM anew or delete the bluedroid folder contents and do the whole unpair and re-pair both audio device. Quite a pain of a workaround, and it doesn't stick either, breaks as soon as Bluetooth is interrupted again.
Since you're on Shamu, I can recommend Cyanide ROM and SIX ROM, also Pure Nexus (not sure why yours didn't work with it), I've tested a few updates of each of the three ROMs, and Bluetooth metadata worked fine. Nitrogen never worked for me either. AICP, CM, LOS, Resurrection Remix, Dirty Unicorns, Emotion OS, all break on this feature for now. Not sure how Google's own OS is running in this department, but I've seen quite a number of complaints on this issue with the 5x, 6p, both pixels, but not so much with Shamu. I've not ran Google's nougat since developer preview 5 of 7.0, and back then it was working, can definitely confirm. I just hopped on the custom ROM train ever since DU released their flavor of Nougat, and just can't or want to go back to stock vendor OS. But do try out Cyanide and SIX ROMs, they both worked flawlessly on this device. Both are packed with extra goodies too. If battery is more important, go with SIX ROM, it's by far the most fine tuned nougat ROM I've tested. You won't find it on XDA, look for it on G+ under "Frankie T (R3DS)" community. It's posted with all the direct links for proper installation. Cyanide is another amazing ROM, also another fine tuned ROM, comes with built in black theme, and good battery life (if you set the governor to interactiveX), but really smooth experience overall. SIX, by the way, uses Pure Nexus as a base platform, so just a heads up there. Personally I've used the last two pure Nexus ROM updates and had zero issues with song data displaying via Bluetooth. Make sure you clean flash the ROM, wipe dalvik cache, cache, date, and system. Leave the internal storage unchecked. If the issue persists, then backup your internal storage files/folders to an external drive/device and format the whole internal storage of your Shamu, then throw everything back on and try clean flashing, pure Nexus should work thereafter. I've even restored it as a nandroid backup a few times and had no issues. SIX ROM is pretty much a refined Pure Nexus with extra features. Give these a shot, well worth it. Let me know how it goes for you.

Wow! Thank you for the detailed feedback! Does your Si have factory nav?
Anyway, I can't tell you how many things I've tried to get this thing figured out...I also have active communication with the manufacturer of the Bluetooth unit to see if we can troubleshoot the issue..So far nothing.
This is the first time I'm hearing of SIX ROM so I'm gonna do some reading and then flash it later on in the week. I'll reply back with updates.
Thanks again!

Happy to help. No my Si doesn't have the navigation option, I just use my Shamu for that. I've finally got the attention of AICP moderator and developer at AICP G+ community, so it's looking like the Bluetooth metadata issue is a CM/LOS issue so far, they're going to look into it. I captured a logcat and pictures which are posted there under bugs+logcat. It's under AICP G+ community if you want to look at it, posted under my main Google account as Andrey K, you can check it out here: https://plus.google.com/112643646080294190790/posts/4FRbAonGT55.
As for you never hearing about SIX ROM, that's because the dev doesn't participate on XDA forums. It's a really stable nougat ROM all around, and now supports phh's root, which if paired with Magisk app, allows to hide root access from apps like Android pay and Pokemon go.
The most a manufacturer would offer is to replace the device, possibly for a fee, that won't solve your problem. Most nougat ROMs are currently experiencing this bug. Cyanide, SIX, and Pure Nexus do not have this problem, at least not on Shamu.

Nah, still struggling with it...I keep hoping that a new Android update will fix it but so far no luck. It used to work fine for me in Lollipop but nothing since I've upgraded to Nougat. I'm on Nexus 6. Wife has a pixel XL and had the same issue when she was on Nougat so it's not the phone. She did get the Oreo update this week so I'll try again to see if it works. If not, then this must be a compatibility issue that the adapter manufacturer may need to look at...
The annoying thing is that the metadata transfer is fine when using my work iPhone. But I hate the iPhone/Apple so I only touch that thing when I absolutely have to (work calls, work emails, etc)
Any solutions so far?
My S2 worked perfect with the Civic (only it did not import the whole phonebook). With S8 I have the whole phonebook but no metadata on tracks (still plays and controls work)

Bluetooth is driving me nuts! Need help please.....

Hello everyone,
I'm having major issues with my Nexus 6 over the past 3 weeks or so.
I've had this phone for almost 2 full years now and love it, however, over the past 3 weeks the bluetooth function keeps turning off when I reboot my phone every night.
It NEVER did this in the past 2 years. Only the last 3 weeks. It seems to be some sort of battery saving feature, I would presume.
What drives me nuts, is I always like to have my bluetooth on, since I get in my truck and it auto connects to my GMC IntelliLink (which is also a problem).
So does anyone know why, all of a sudden, after reboot, bluetooth defaults to off and I have to manually turn it on every time? My Nexus 6 has been flawless up until now.
I've looked everywhere for an "auto start" option for bluetooth, but cannot find one. I have ZERO idea how this happened all of a sudden. I've been running the same ROM since last February with no problems (ROM screenshot attached).
As for my bluetooth truck problem, that started today. All of a sudden "phone audio" will not let me select the box, only "Media Audio" and "Contact Sharing" boxes are selected. Thus my Pandora plays over bluetooth, but my phone calls will not.
Also my Bose Quiet Comfort headphones used to connect perfectly with my Nexus 6, now I'm at work and I notice if I turn the headphones off, then come back and turn on, it'll say "connected to Nexus 6", but the sound is playing through the phone instead of the headphones, even though the bluetooth connection has been established.
Again, this is only over the last few weeks.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm willing to update to a new ROM or do a wipe, I just tend to live by the motto "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"........ except now it is broke and I want to fix it.
Thank you-
Paste a logcat here. A dev could take a look and help you out.
or
Backup your stuff and do a clean install of a new pure nexus or whatever rom, if it's still present after that, maybe it's just your battery starts to dying after 2 years.
Edit: I'm using crdroid as daily driver and have no bt issues
So glad you posted this, I'm having the same issue! After either a restart or just a period of time my Bluetooth turns to disabled. It is especially frustrating as I have it connected to my watch, which allows me to unlock with smart unlock. When the Bluetooth is disabled, I have to punch my pin in.
I am on stock 7.1.1, February update. I am rooted and flashed the Echo Permissions Fix. I was going to flash stock again this morning, but decided to check here first for a solution. I am just happy to know that it's not just me.
That being said, like @MVLJR, I recently flashed PureNexus ROM and that for me is when this began. I flashed back to stock via flashall, but it has not stopped the problem. Could it be a PureNexus thing?
As we have PureNexus somewhat in common, I am doing some searching on that page. I had previously posted there about it, but I don't think I ever got a response. Someone mentions it on Page 3417, I'll keep reading to see if I find a solution.
My post, by the way, is on page 3420.
I had a problem like this on Pure Nexus and flashed back to stock (N6F26R) to see if the problem goes away...
Previously on stock (release before N6F26R) and never had an issue. I use Bluetooth with a watch, fitness band and sometimes my Wife's Ford...

@muiriddin, did the problem go away for you? Because I flashed back to stock and the problem persists.
@MVLJR, I suspect that the problem is Android Wear 2.0 on our phones. Do you have a smart watch?
Edit: On the PureNexus forum, people without Android Wear are also experiencing it. So back to the drawing board. I still do not think it is your ROM.
Reading this thread reminded me of something I dealt with a while back, I don't know if this will do it for all of you, but I figured I'd post this. I screenshotted a reddit thread that fixed the problem for me. I can't remember if what I experienced was the same as all of you, and I am not having the problem now. But I hope this helps. Please see the attached screenshot.
I don't have an android watch, but I do have a fitbit and don't have any problems with it.
A little update, I cleared my Bluetooth cache and changed the name of my device, which seems to have helped.
My Bose headphones now autoconnect like before.
However, my Bluetooth still shuts off after reboot. My GMC Intellilink still won't let me select "Phone Audio" either.
I think I'm going to flash a new ROM this week, which sucks because I've grown attached to the Pure Nexus ROM.
Can someone show me how to post a logcat?
Thanks
This (and similar) bluetooth issues have been reported on the nougat product pages. It's not unique to PureNexus or the Nexus 6.
Reports are that 7.1.2 (beta) fixes the issue on devices that have access to it. Hopefully a fix comes down the pipe for the Nexus 6 as well, as I have some of the same issues.
Similar posts can be found on the nexus6 and googlepixel subreddit pages.
My question is, what prompted this?
I've had the same ROM for a year, no OTA updates. Had to be an app update, correct?
No other way to explain how it worked for a year, now problems all over the place
You've been using the same ROM, but updating the version of the ROM, correct?
And the ROM updates are based on updates made to Android by Google.
So if a bug makes it into Nougat, it will (generally) make it into the modified ROM as well.
Incorrect, I've been on the same version of Pure Nexus since last February, screen shot in original post
I take it the fix I posted didn't help? I was really hopeful that it was the same issue and that would fix it up.
I haven't tried it yet, at work right now, I'll give it a shot later.
I'll update my findings.
Thanks
Will keep my fingers crossed. One thing to note, when doing that fix, it *will* wipe your bluetooth auto-pair devices. So don't fret if nothing automatically connects afterwards. You have to repair everything.
It is not a new problem, there are many threads in the Q&A forum if you search. Here is one:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6/help/bluetooth-off-reason-pattern-t3435436
(there are more links and suggested workarounds in that thread from me)
That said, installing the AW 2.0 DP 4 totally solved my BT disconnects from my Huawei watch and LG stereo headset.
The changelog on the latest Huawei AW 1.5 mentions BT issues, but I have not tried it.
AW 2.0 official is supposed to start rolling out OTA tomorrow, so we shall see. (finners crossed tite )
I'm on Jan 21 PN 7.1.1, latest AW app. I have no suggestions of those having issues with no Android Wear, but there are threads here with suggested workarounds that solved this for many of us before, you might want to check them.
@Morpherios and @MVLJR
I don't know if it's of any note, but one of the actions I attempted in trying to fix mine was to reset all network settings via the "More" option in Wireless & Networks settings (I backed up wifi settings in advance). That's essentially a nuking of all network settings, including wifi, cell, and bluetooth. It did not resolve my issue.
@Pkt_Lnt seems to be indicating that with updated AW on his watch, the disconnects are not happening. How the software on the watch (as opposed to the AW app on the phone) would be causing bluetooth to crash, I'm not sure. But it's not outside the realm of possibility.

My words were / are different than that:
AW 2.0 DP 4 totally solved my BT disconnects
That means they do NOT happen any more, since Dec 11, 2016 when I installed AW OS 2.0 DP4 was released and I installed it on my watch. Not. One. Disconnect. None. Nada. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nein.. :victory:
BT devices communicate both directions. The watch CAN control the phone, and was turning off BT. It was obvious when it happened, when my headphones prompt "Out of Range, trying to connect" (I came to hate hate that voice prompt )
I would immediately open the AW app on the phone at disconnect and was prompted to turn on BT because it was off.
@Pkt_Lnt I completely agree that it BT communication is two-way...I stated that it's not outside the realm of possibility because there are a number of factors that could do it, including the phone receiving a message it simply doesn't know what to do with and causing a fault. This could explain my bluetooth share crash messages that I received on occasion.
It's encouraging to know that it's fixed with AW 2.0 for you. I hope it carries through to me when I get the update. If the OTA doesn't drop tomorrow, I may have to flash the DP as well.

AA Shutting down after screen unlock

Hi all guys, I've been missing a long time from here, so please be care enough to forgive me if I posted the thread in the wrong place.
I'm currently using Android Auto and enjoying very much the amazing work made from Gabriele (AAAD, of which I payed the PRO version in order to help the developer's job).
I'm running AA version 6.3.611314 (downgraded from 6.4, because otherwise AAAD didn't work, since AA 6.4.... doesnt' let you show the apps installed apart from the official ones); Ford Focus Active with Sync 3 updated to 3.4 version, a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra5G (European) with Android 11.
Everything works fine, even AAAD installed programs.
The only problem is that every time I unlock the phone it disconnects from AA and then it starts again from the beginning. I opened the DEv Options in the phone settings and chose as standard setting for the usb - File transfer / Android Auto.
My question is: Why this disconnections happen and HOW can I fix it? I currently drive with the phone unlocked and, useless to say, it doesn't charge as much as it would if the screen had been off. I alredy tried with other cables, even with a Sam S9+ original one.
Thanks in advantage, any help is appreciated.
Same here, S10+ latest official, AA 6.4.611714-release, Ford Sync 3.x .
Doing so for about a week (or some more). At phone unlock, AA is crashing to Sync interface, and phone is asking for permissions in order to start Android Auto again (need to press Allow, otherwise AA will not start!)
Thx!
Same here , s10
It'd be nice to know whether the problem starts from the phone version , the AA version or from the car itself.

I can confirm that the issue is related to the last Sammy update , I have downgraded to may update , now aa works perfect
Guys, Google just updated the discussion thread three days ago:
Thanks for all the reports. We informed the Samsung team and they have applied a fix on an upcoming upgrade as part of the regular July maintenance release to resolve this issue. Please keep checking for system updates on the device.
