Hello,
I did "retrofit" Android Auto in my car
So now I have two Bluetooth-s, Android Auto and Car original Bluetooth interface, I want to calls go true original car interface BUT, on my android phone I turn off Bluetooth "Phone Calls" permission for Android Auto, but it's auto turning ON after several seconds, is there a solution for that to stay all the time OFF and HOW?!
The point is, I turn off Androuid Auto call permission, start calling over Car Bluetooth and after several seconds, Android Auto resume permission and switch call form car interface to android auto (it's not same call quality so I want to keep it on factory Bluetooth).
Please help

Today I used Google Maps on my 2018 Acura MDX with Android Auto support. While using turn by turn directions with audio notifications enabled and listening to the vehicle's FM radio or Sirius XM, I noticed the vehicle switch audio input back to Android Auto after turn by turn directions were spoken. If the directions were short such as "turn left" the unit would resume the audio source that was in use. If the direction instructions were a bit longer the audio source switched to Android Auto. I was forced to manually switch back to the previous source. Pretty annoying. This happened consistently during my drive.
Anyone come across this issue?
Hi Everyone!
I'm really new to Tasker and struggling to figure out how to solve the below issue. I can answer the calls using my HONOR smartwatch as well (not an Android WEAR device!), but once my phone is connected to the car's bluetooth system, I do want to use the CAR for answering the calls. This time unfortunately the watch takes over the call immediatelly and I have no opten to use the car's system - which is unacceptable. Is there a way to turn OFF - only the call-answering ability - of the watch' bluetooth connection when my phone is connected to the car, then turn it back ON once I'm out of my car (not being connected to its bluetooth system any more)?
I' d really appreciaty any guidance for this issue!
Thx in advance!
Hlw, I want to toggle Bluetooth speaker to normal phone mode during calling, but I don't want to stop/disable Bluetooth cause I m using smart watch and I want to see caller id in watch but I don't want to talk or hearing from watch, for that I need to toggle speaker manually from blspeaker to phone. I want tasker can help me auto toggle after call received. And I also don't want to disable phone call option in Bluetooth device setting cause if I turn off this one, caller id not showing in watch.
Attached 2 pic, please help
This one is really annoying me - with my new Dacia Jogger, I've found that Android Auto always thinks I'm driving, even when parked, with the engine off. The problem with this is some navigation apps completely disable the ability to search for a destination, so I can't progam in a route once I'm connected! Also Gameshack is disabled because AA thinks I'm driving too.
There any way to fix this or stop AA from disabling interactions?
Your headunit has a wire connected to the handbrake sensor in your car, and this way it knows if you're parked and can't restrict some activities. This information is passed from the headunit's firmware to Android Auto internally, and this way Android Auto can restrict or allow you to do some stuff like use the touchpad, use certain buttons, etc.
In order to save money (or due to a bad Android Auto implementation), some headunits don't send handbrake status information to Android Auto. This way you can use the onscreen voice button all the time (in the lower corner of Android Auto) even if the car is moving, but the downside is that some Android Features get broken, like Gamesnacks or alphabetic search in lists. They can do this for a number of reasons, like not having a dedicated voice button in the steering wheel or headunit, but it's not the ideal case.
I suggest you to find other people with the same car model and see if their cars behave in the same way. If so, then this is a headunit problem and the carmaker should release a fix. If this only happens in your car, I would check if there's a wiring issue in the handbrake or something similar is happening.
you might also want to check if there's some settings menu in your headunit with some option to check this.
You can also try to sync a new phone over bluetooth to your car headunit while parked. If it refuses because the car is moving (even if is not) then it could be a wiring issue.
When i had my pixel 5, the Bluetooth automatically turned on after a few minutes of driving, i can't find how to do that in pixel 7. Options does not looks to be the same...
How can i do that or what can i use as an alternative?
Android Auto as alternative
That's why i want Bluetooth on, if it's activated android auto will connect directly.
You can probably do it in Tasker, but I am not sure how you would detect you are in the car. Constant GPS checking would be power hungry.
Assuming you have home WiFi, a partial solution would be to turn Bluetooth on when it no longer sees your router. You can even turn it back off when you get home.
