Hi all,
I hope you can help me with the following issue.
I purchased a Wandefoo Android 8 head unit on AliExpress for my Opel Astra H. Great unit, I love it. It has only one big issue;
Every now and again (one or two times per week) the Bluetooth and wifi connectivity appear to crash/go offline. When that happens you cannot connect blue tooth devices, it doesn't connect to any familiar devices or connect to wifi. The buttons are there but they appear to be irresponsive. Wifi is in off status unable to set it to on. Bluetooth opens the bluetooth menu but it doesn't do anything. It remains this way until one or a combination of the steps below are taken:
Only solutions are (a mix) of these step:
- Reboot the device by holding power button (Most of the time do that twice).
- If that doesn't solve it; reset the wifi/bluetooth settings in the systems menu.
- If that doesn't solve it; go the the recovery menu and delete the cache.
Then it will run for a couple of rides.
It never happens when it is working and you are driving. It changes after shutting down the car and thus the radio. I also tried to change the quick wake to a regular reboot everytime, but that doesn't prevent the issue from occurring.
I hope any of you can help me with this, or by fixing the issues or applying the proper updates/patches to this device. I have seen a tremendous amount of devices here and I don't know what fits my device. These are my specs:

For those that might stumble on to this;
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...ifi-bluetooth-waking-t3852206/page6?nocache=1
Might have some solutions for you. I'm still in the middle of checking and testing and can't confirm yet.
It basically says two things;
1. Resetting the internal USB (hub) module through root and a script might solve some issues.
2. As it appears some new chips have been released solving these issues.
Hope it helps anyone.
Cheers Ben

So up till now I hadn't really tried using NFC on my phone since Android Pay didn't support Chase. For the past month or two I've been trying to get it work without any luck.
These are the things I've tried already,
Turning S-Beam Off, leaving Android Beam On
Tried transferring images with HTC M8 (Android Pay works on this one), didn't work, not even a beep
Wiping Data and Cache, to see if any of the apps might have been causing problems.
I'm starting to think my device hardware might be at fault, but before I jump the gun, is NFC/Android Pay working for any of you guys on latest software?

Build #: G900AAUCS4DPH4
I installed an Android head unit in my wife's VW some 3 or 4 years ago.
Most features work just fine but there are three problems.
The RDS AF (auto follow) does not work even though the AF box is checked. So as we drive out of the area of one transmitter in a network the radio does not automatically retune to the next one. This is her number 1 complaint.
There is a small battery drain when the keys are removed from the car so after a 2 or 3 week holiday the battery is flat.
The boot time is very slow
Can these problems be solved with an update?
Thanks

Hi,
android auto disconnects when there is no phone signal - anybody has also this problem ?
(I have VW Discover Pro unit and phone Lenovo P2.)
Same issue with Galaxy S9+ Duos and Mercedes CLA 180. Let's hope that the new rolling version of AA has this bug solved. It's an old bug... At the beginning I thought that was the cable, then I observed the same behaviour.

Yepp, same happens with PocoF1 and Hyundai i40.
so we have to wait, maybe new update will solve this problem
I saw a discussion regarding the new AA. It seems that the new interface will be remotely activated on the phones from the google server side and not directly by the app.
This means that it's an culprit in the AA code and when it's loosing the server connection reacts like this.
Did anyone tried offline maps from Google? Maybe it's an protection to third party apps for navigation.

After updating AA there are still disconnects. But AA restarts automatically, which was not the case.
Android Auto v4.6 still disconecting
For anyone reading this in 2030, when this problem is surely still not resolved yet... I'm running into the same problem (Also VW - maybe it is a bug in their implementation?), my solution so far is to drive with airplane mode turned on. I would love to debug this, maybe fix the bug with a modified apk, but I'm not sure how to reproduce it in a controlled environment, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Still not fixed as of October 13th 2022
December 2022, Pixel 7 Pro and the problem still exists. Happened on my P5 and P6 before this too
June 2023.
We're screwed, aren't we? We wouldn't be having such issues with Carplay...
I think after the last update the Pixel 4 XL now starts a Bluetooth call and ends after one or two rings. I use it a lot around the house and really liked it but now it just stopped working. The phone being called keeps ringing and if they pick up there is no sound. On my end I see the call being made in the Pixels screen and then it just seems to hang up or end the call after one ring.
Android 11

Build number RQ1a.210205.004
Tried removing pairing from both the Pixel and Bluetooth (I've used this device with a few phones for a few years now it's never done this) device and adding them again and it still hangs up after 10-15 seconds.
Calling directly from the Pixel seems to work.

Finally found a easy Solution for this issue (on Pixel 4a 5G):
January 2021 android 11 update
Activate developer options
Settings
About Phone
click 7 times on build-number, confirm
go back to settings
... system
... advanced
... developer options
Find [Bluetooth AVRCP-Version]
Standard setting was 1.2
Change setting to 1.6
Find [Bluetooth MAP-Version] (should be right below)
Standard setting was MAP 1.1
Change setting to MAP 1.4
Restart device
Hopefully this can solve the issue for you all as well.
Hello,
Feedback for me with a Find X5 Pro (version CPH2305_11_A.17), I come from a OnePlus 7T with which I had no problem on Android auto.
I'm using a high speed cable bought on Amazon and I have big problems with my new phone, already I have to unlock it to select the USB mode "Data Transfer / Android Auto".
After that I have a 1 in 5 chance for it to work, sometimes I have to wait 1 minute and Android Auto starts, sometimes nothing happens and I have to reboot the phone.
Before my factory reset the phone rebooted every 15 minutes when it was on Android Auto.
Again, I had this time the Waze GPS that did not work when I started the car, once disconnected on the live application no problem but impossible to re-detect it by the car by reconnecting.
I already did a factory reset of the phone but I have the same problem. I'm using Android Auto version 7.4.620964 and I've already contacted the Oppo France support which seems to be aware of the problem but no fix for the moment.
Searching on the internet I saw that last year when the Find X3 was released problems occurred for 5 months before having a stable fix.
I am using a 2016 Skoda Fabia with the latest update.
If anyone has a solution to this problem I am a taker.
Here is the download for the latest stable build (7.7.622124), which might fix your Android Auto connectivity issue.
