Ive just bought a brand new Mate 10 which came with EMUI 8.0.0 (Android Oreo 8.0). Everything is great except that when I plug the phone into my car Android Auto starts on the phone (Black AA Screen) and the HU starts to switch to AA but all I get is a black screen. Whats even more interesting is that AA seems to be alive behind it all as if I touch the screen, things happen, eg if I press the hardware phone button and then touch the screen, it will call someone. If I hold the hardware phone button down I can issue voice commands.
Any idea's how I can get my HU screen to work?
I am using a Xiaomi A1 running Android8.0 and also have an Opel Astra K - with no AA-problems!
Try to check your cable, or replace your cable to the original one ...

Yep, using the supplied cable. Tried 2 others as well. Same behaviour.

Poxy lame response from. Huawei:
"Thank you very much for contacting Huawei and we are truly sorry for the inconvenience caused.
With regards to your inquiry, we would like to inform you that Huawei is currently working with Google to fix this problem. Please look out for new updates for your phone system and Android Auto, and install the updates when possible. It is recommended that you wait for new updates in which the problem is fixed."
So 12 months after the issue was reported with Android 6 devices, it's still happening with Android 8. So #[email protected]&ing lame.

It's really incredible that this issue has not been fixed yet. I have issues too with my Huawei Mate 10 Pro and Android Auto. It's supposed to be a "flagship" device and it doesn't work with Android Auto. Wtf?
I was thinking about to get a Huawei mate 10 pro.
Googled android Auto and USB-C.
No thanks Looks I like I will look for an old USB phone.

DOnt be put off by USB-C. Its purely a Huawei issue. Point in case, my new Nokia 8 works great.
I dont think is the phone problem in your case it might be the AA car board compatibility! I have Mate 10 pro and honda civic 2018 and AA works with no issue.! I am a happy Huawei AA user: v well connectivity BT phone, media and charging in the same time of usingAA.

Car works perfectly with my Oppo R7sf and Nokia 8. It's a phone issue.
that might be the car bord version of software and phone system... as i explained I do have honda civic 2018 with os 4.2.2 and my mate 10 pro emui 8.0.0

Could be. But it's clearly capable of running with Android 7(Oppo) and 8 and 8.1 phones (Nokia) so whose the best candidate?
i dont have an answer but to say i was really sceptical when i purchase my car not long ago reading all was post by huawei AA compatibility..... it has nothing to do with Huawei OS system.... i am the one using both

So maybe it's just that EMUI has a fix to work with the hardware you have. So far, Ive seen way to many people say their Huawei DOESNT work. Way that don't than do.

hardware always is controled by a firmware which is the os of the car board

Ahh yep...well aware of that. But as I said, everyone else seems to be able to deal with what is there. If all you want to be is a fanboi and tout that you one setup works, that's great. This thread is here to warn people of the ONGOING issue Huawei have with their 2nd rate bloatware OS.
I've got also a Opel Astra K and have several issues with the Mate 10 Pro, connected with the OEM cable..
Despite a factory reset (I originally cloned data from my Honor 7 with Phone Clone app), i have sometimes soft resets when I connect the phone to my car, with a message "No compatible application.. ".
Some other times, I've got a black screen, the only way to play music is to select USB as source on IntelliLink (Opel infotainment).
Phone doesen't work correctly : no notification on car display when receiving or making a call
Waze not working at all.
Never had this issues with my Honor 7. Outside this I'm satisfied with my phone, but I would like to have Android Auto running well....

I have also the Opel astra k. Despite waze not working and the phone not showing up while calling. I have no issue.
But I have a new phone and the big screen of intellilink (r900 I think?)
Never drove long though. Today I will drive for 2 or three hours. Let's that there is no crash!
The bugs are annoying. But I don't care.

I have the "basic" Intellilink (7 inch display). Maintenance of my Astra is programmed for next Thursday, I'll ask my dealer if there is any update of Opel software
Same exact problem with Opel Astra K and Huawei Mate 10 Pro, but problem got worse when I went to update the software to the Opel service.
Had R 4.0 IntelliLink version 1.12.5.2 for 1,5 year and after updating it about 2 weeks ago, it's version is IP34.5.1 (1.34.5.6). Also HW version is E2.
Before the update I had the random black screen on android auto, about 1 out of 4 times but it was working without issues 3 out of 4 times. After the update..... I ALWAYS get black screen So, the problem got worst for some reason.
So, I completely factory reset both the phone and R 4.0 IntelliLink... unfortunately same issue with black screen. I also tried both original cable and an SBS type C cable that used to work before the update... nothing again..
I also have a Lenovo Phab that works without any issue on Android Auto! Also iPhone with CarPlay works very nice and always as well!
Tried everything I found on the web regarding dev mode etc but nothing helped. The screen remains black, understands the touch and in order for the screen to show R 4.0 IntelliLink default icons, I remove the key, open the door, lock the car and after 2 minutes I unlock the car, put the key on the ignition and everything is back to normal.
Really don't know why exactly the problem got worse, although I read around the web that in order for Android Auto to work on R 4.0 IntelliLink EVERY TIME, you simply have to update the software on the OPEL service.

Personally I think it's the other way around. I think EMUI can't work with newer HU software.
I posted this on the AA support page but didn't get an answer so I thought I'd seek help here.
Error message: None
Are you using Android Auto on your phone screen or car’s display? Car's Display
Car / head unit make & model: 2018 Honda Pilot EX
Phone make & model: Pixel 4
Android OS version: 10
Android Auto app version: 4.7.593824-Release
Google Play services version: 19.6.29 (120400-278422107)
Morning of the 13th, after 60ish seconds I lost all audio.
Worked fine from pixel 4 release until now. And worked with my Pixel 2 before that.
Tried:
-Unplugging and replugging in. AA does launch but no audio.
-Bluetooth: Removing phone from car and car from phone. Will work for 60ish seconds then quit.
-Audio DOES work with Bluetooth outside of AA.
-Uninstalled AA updates then reinstalled.
-Uninstalled GMaps Beta went back to release but no good.
-reinstalled GMaps beta no good
Android Device Policy was updated the previous night.
Also have a Samsung Galaxy S2 watch paired. Tried turning watch off and restarting AA but no good.
Rolled AA back to the previous version and it works. Unfortunately I'm back to the old interface.
Today found that Do Not Disturb was enabled with the update on the 12-13th which caused no audio.
Hello,
I was not sure where to post my concern ...
I bought an Alpine ILX-702D car radio and a Google Pixel 5 phone. I use Android Auto normally but I would have liked to "unbridle" to have the display of another application (example sygic, torque pro, etc.)
I tried to install OBD2 Plugin but without success, nothing is launched on the car radio
If you have any leads to follow by avoiding the root of the phone
Thank you
Hello all,
First of all:
My Mi 10 Lite used to work properly on an Audi Head Unit and a china Android HU with an AA box.
With the china HU the phone ran with MIUI 12.1 und 12.5 I guess? I did got an update to MIUI 12.5.1 this week.
I have the Skoda since 02. july, so Android Auto worked with all MIUI Versions till then on the china Radio in my old car.
Now I have a big problem, that after pressing the microphone button on screen, my voice is detected, and the assistant will do what I am saying. For example "Play BAND XY an Spotify" or "Route to Mainstreet my City". I can also say "Write a whatsapp to abc". After that command it says something like "OK, chatting with abc. What do you want to say?". AND now my voice won't be recognized anymore.
What have I tried till now:
- updated firmware of Skoda Headunit to newest Version (1433)
- three different cables (china noname, Anker, original Xiaomi cable)
- another Android Phone (Samsung A40) --> DID work well
Just as I am writing now, I have not tried yet to swipe the cache of the app.
In the screenshots, you cann see the permissions of the Android Auto app.
What have I missed? What can I do?
For me it is an important feature to dictate messages, as my family or girlfriend sometimes have simple questions per whatsapp, which can be shortly answered. Calling would be a very much longer time, and my drive home is about an hour.
