AAWireless - General discussion and support - Android Auto General

This thread is dedicated for AAWireless users.
AAWireless is a device which allows you to transform your existing wired Android Auto compatible unit into a Wireless Android Auto unit.
General chat, experience sharing and community support should be expected as well as support from the developers of the product: @Snirpo and myself.

Hi, I am an AAWireless beta tester and have been helping test the device.
I have four phones that I use with AAWireless.
Samsung Galaxy S20 5G [Android 11]
Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G [Android 11]
Moto G Power (2020) [Android 10]
LG Q7+ [Android 9]
I have a 2020 Hyundai Palisade with the 10.25 inch head unit.
I may be able to help with questions that you may have here.

I'm also an AAWireless beta tester;
I've tested Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite;

Today I received AAWireless box. It works flawlessly on Lenovo P2 with Android 11 and with 9.2″ screen MIB2.5 unit in VW Passat B8.
Thank you very much Emil and Chiel !

Where can I buy AAWireless so that I can become a user? Indiegogo sold out

I got it mine today and except the issue with VPN (which is btw linked to Android auto and not to aawireless), it works flawlessly with no issue at all. Wondering if there's a way to create a sort of tunnel for AA on the VPN but I already wrote to my VPN service provider.
Awesome work Emil and the whole team there!

I received my device today and it worked out of the box! I love it!
I only had one time the problem, that my headunit suddenly completly restarted. I dont know why (maybe the Tap limitation option? I have this disabled via AA AIO Tweaker and in the AAWireless options).
I will report if this happens again.
I wonder if the device records some diagnostics data and send it automaticly to the developers for troubleshooting.
Headunit: Seat MIB2Std + Nav (5QA035846B)
Smartphone: Oneplus 8T (Android 11)

I got the dongle today. While my phone shows that it is connected to Android Auto, the grass unit of my car doesn't do anything (as in the Android Auto launcher doesn't show)
Tried all combinations of USB mode and Pass-through, clearing data of Android Auto app (Pass-through option made the dongle bootloop), unpairing phone from head unit via Bluetooth. No luck.
Phone is Pixel 4
Car is Nissan Qashqai.

Headunit restarting problem happend 2 times in 15 minutes again.

@Emil Borconi, Thank You for all the great work and for starting up this thread so that we can chat, it's much better than trying to do this over the Comments section on Indiegogo.
Hi Everyone, I'm in the waiting queue for my AAWireless, but I am currently running AAGateway on a rooted cell phone and it is working beautifully (with the occasional hiccup). I anticipate that AAWireless will solve the minor, sporadic issues I see with AAGateway.

I received mine couple days ago aswell.
It worked right of the box with zero issues.
The connection is fast and stable.
This is with Pixel 5 and 2017 VW Passat B8 with discover media (MIB2).

Hello, i got Mine some days ago and i am excited Like Most Other Users.
I have no Problems and the Connection is very fast and stable.
Never ever an USB cable.
Thank you for the good Work.
My configuration:
Hyundai i30 pde 2019 with Touch Display
Pixel 5 with Android 11 (Not rooted)

Hi
I also got the box and it works perfectly with my Oneplus 8 Plus and my Kia e-Niro 2021.
Unfortunately, the entire display is not used for Android Auto and there remains a black area on the right that cannot be used.
Is there a way to use the entire screen?
And great device and great Jop!

it works like a charm!! really thx so much @Emil Borconi !
samsung s21 and peugeot nac (3008)

got mine yesterday and i only had some troubles with netguard (VPN "firewall"), since i disbaled the rules for aawireless and android auto it is working.
Pixel 4 XL
Ford Focus MK3

I just received a notification my unit has shipping. I guess I will be one of the first to confirm if this works with a 2020 Subaru Forrester along with my OnePlus 8T+ 5G (KB2007).

I also received my AAwireless a few days ago and am having problems with my Xiaomi Mi10 phone. However, my wife's phone, a Huawei P30 Pro, didn't cause any problems at all. So it's up to MIUI again. That may be safe, but it is extremely annoying with peripherals. Does anyone know these problems with Xiaomi and maybe can help me?
II have no regrets and was one of the first to support on Indiegogo and I would love to do it again!
Edit: Car is a Kia ProCeed GT 2020.

Mate 10 with Astra K - Black HU Screen

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 ...

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.

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.

android auto

Is this working at all
YES! Perfectly! And Google assistant keeps me company when I am stack in traffic??
Works fine for me also
hi guys,
has anyone tried P20Pro with Android Auto on a KIA Sportage latest series?
is that working fine ?
I don't know how the kia system works but with Ford I have to enable android auto in the cars settings first then it automatically starts android auto when I plug my phone in
thank for the info,
on the KIA Sportage 2017 you must first start the AA app on the cell, then attach the smartphone with the USB cable to the system, only after the KIA navigator activates the android auto function.
On a site (link at the bottom) I read that any problems of disconnecting android cars are due to the USB connection settings on the phone, but just (no root) enable USB tethering. The charging will be deactivated immediately and all available bandwidth will be used to run Android Auto.
Unfortunately, I do not know if this will be possible on Android P.

no one got a kia and p20 pro?
Working with Volvo S90.
I have KIA Sportage and you only have to plug it to usb and select android auto from the car screen.

Are you talking about P20pro connected to KIA? Or only about the connection to Kia by android auto?
Thank you
Yes! I have p20 pro connected to Kia sportage.
Ok, I'll buy it. Thank you
Ordered.... ?
Great choice for both, car and phone! :good:
I've got a Kia Optima and I don't get a ringtone on android auto - works ok when connected to just bluetooth, but on AA I just get the notification coming up on the screen and no sound
Any ideas?
Have you tried to check the media or phone volume on optima navi?
Yes, all on max. Head unit worked OK with my Samsung S7 Edge.
Will reset the bluetooth connection tomorrow, see if that helps. Already tried the Google Play Services hack, that didn't work - except mess up my Google Maps timeline
Tempted to do a factory reset and start agin - had a few issues that I now know how to fix, such as no alarms when do not disturb and whitelist is set

Toyota Yaris and Android Auto

Hello,
does anyone know if Android Auto is finally available on the new models of Toyota?
I'm interested in Toyota Yaris (which models exaclty?) available in Italy.
I've read a lot of articles about Toyota agreeing on adding Android Auto support, but haven't found anywhere more details about which cars/models and when.
Tx a lot.
The Toyota Yaris (With GPS) Touch & Go 2, has it's own OS (based on QNX).
I don't own one with the GPS module, So i Got Toyota Touch 2, but not Touch & Go 2 (1200€ upgrade).
I tried to connect My Galaxy S9+ with Android Auto to the Toyota USB, and the only thing I got with android Auto on my Smartphone, is a black screen.

Android Auto

Hello everyone.
I have the sony XZ1 Compact with Android 9 and I'm not available to connect it to my car with android auto.
Apparently, no one can with this configuration. Is it right? Is a way to do fix it? New Rom, Downgrade, ...
Thanks for your answer.
Loïc
P.s. I tried a few cable, it's a phone issue.
It has worked for me the past 6 months. I am on Android 9, Android Auto 4.2.591434-release with XZ1 compact. Does it work with other phones on your car?
Hi,
On Oreo i had problems with low in-call volume, but on Pie everything works fine without any issues.
Pie 47.2.A.10.45, AA 4.1.590944, XAV-AX100 unit
Hello,
I also have an issue with Sony Xperia XZ1 - Android 9, Android Auto 4.6.593324 - I can't connect it to my car - Kia Niro.
I have tried also with my phone to another car, it also doesn't work.
I've tried with another phone Samsung Galaxy S8 and works perfectly with the same cable. It seems that the issue is with my phone.
Is there a solution for this? Did someone succeed with a Sony XZ1?
Thanks in advance.
It works for me. Android 9, build 47.2.A.11.228 with Android Auto 4.7.593824-release
3rd party cable used in several of my company's fleet vehicles, 2017-2019 Ford Escapes

Mi9 Android Car GPS issue

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my Mi9 together with Android Car.
If I connect my Mi9 via USB-C to the car the GPS signal breaks down and also Google maps goes into offline mode.
I have a VW Passat B9 and my Mi9 is on MIUI 11.0.6 stable (Android 10).
With my second phone Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ the setup is working fine...
Looking forward to some tips or tricks.
Kind regards,
Lucas
