Google Podcast App not working on Android Auto 7.3 - Android Auto General

Hi Guys.
I just recently got the AA update to the 7.3 version, and suddenly the Google Podcast App is not working anymore in AA, I'm getting the message that the App is not ready or something similar, I will try to get a picture of the message and share it later...
Someone else is having the same problem? - Any workaround to fix it?
Thank you!!

So do I! Since this week.

Same, it worked the first day I had my new car but now it won't open. Other apps seem to work fine such as YouTube Music

Yes, others apps seems to work, however today I noticed that Waze was running with a message of being offline, but my phone was getting data and working properly...
I Need to check if it's a persistent issue.

So, today it magically started to work!
Now Google podcast App is working normally in AA 7.3
Waze is working ok as well, but sometimes it marked itself as offline "no internet connection".

This is good news. I am having the same issue with the app not working so hopefully it will be fine for my drive to work. I've been using Spotify which I don't like because I can't reorder my podcast lists.

It seems to be ok now. I didn't find a good alternative, so I am relieved.

Bluegps help please

I'm trying to connect to my magellan maestro gps unit. In settings, the bluetooth says paired but not connected. This is where bluegps comes in, right? In bluegps, I chose the magellan unit and then right below it I pressed it to try to connect. But everytime I try to connect, it disconnects saying "Cannot start: Too many connection problems".
Yes, the maestro unit has pairing and connection on. It recognizes the gtab as vegan 5.1.1.
What settings in the bluegps I need to do?
I was having similar issues with the application, so based on another thread, I tried out Googoo Android's Bluetooth GPS. It's available on the Market, but you'll have to sideload it from another device or find the APK (posted on another thread here). That application worked much better for me.
I use 'Bluetooth GPS Provider'
https://market.android.com/details?id=de.mobilej.btgps&feature=search_result
Has been the most stable for me.
If you can't load from market, here is a copy in my DropBox.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9669866/BluetoothGPSprovider.apk
Figured out what's wrong. After reading around the net, figured out that the gps unit I have only allows bluetooth connection to transfer data files. GPS signal won't share.
Thanks Zaphod-Beeblebrox

You're awesome. I've been searching around for a couple of days now trying to get my bluetooth G-Sat gps to pair with my new gtab. After grabbing 'Bluetooth GPS Provider' from your dropbox and installing via adb, I'm now able to use the gps puck, thanks.

I've actually had that app cause my tablet to freeze twice now and I had to force a reboot (tap the hell out of the power button). TnT Lite 4.4.0. I'm wondering if it's an isolated issue or no because before the thing froze, it was working rather well.
i got my bt gps unit working in google maps.. but that is no good driving around. and cannot get sygic aura or mobile maps to work.

Here are a lot of threads about Bluetooth GPS and need of data connection when using Google maps.
Therefore you need GPS software with pre-loaded maps, like CoPilot.
It's on the market around $5.00 for USA.
I use it and love it!! LOL

GPS do not work if google play is not deactivated

Hey Gyus,
I have HTC One mini 2 for two years on Android 4.4.2 all stock without any big problems until now.
I came home on last Sunday with GPS working. I do not install any new app but GPS on Monday stop working. All apps have the same problem no gps signal.
I tried sports tracker, gps test, google maps, sygic navigation. Same problem. I tried unistall every app which can use GPS( or I think that I tried unistall all of them) and nothing helps.
My last try was disable google play app and after restarting my phone, problem solved GPS working again.
Then I activate google play app again, reinstall some apps again and it was ok until next morning, situation was the same. So I deactivated google play again and after restart it was ok.
Could you give me some hint where should be my problem? )
I would like to use GPS based apps and google play together without activate/deactivate google play app.
There is some pictures for this.

where exacly gps not working? car, house?
works but not satellite lock.
wont work at all? no icon on notification bar?

I do not have house without roof so I tested it in a car, and open air.
works but not satellite lock.
Without satellite fix and when google play is activated all satellites "are off", after deactivating and restart, satellites imidiately works and after few second fix is on too.
wont work at all? no icon on notification bar?
Icon in notification bar works for a first time since restart. In my opinion there some "looping or deadlock", because after first try "gps using app"(for example gps test) after restart, sometimes icon stays blinking.

i only asked because it happen to me when i installed an mp3 transmitter in my car.
it turn out that GPS wont lock if a 89.5 frequency in the air.
i used this APP for problem solving. you can reset sat and see all satellites with force signal.
have you tried resenting your phone? you can do a backup with HTC Sync and then restore.

Exactly it starts approx. 10days ago.
Do you find any solution? Try to deactivate google play, restart your phone if it helps... But it is only temporary solution. I am looking for better solution.
I think that there was some secret update of some google services and there is a bug.

I had a similar problem with a cheap chinese dashboard camera when it runs from 12V car socket, gps signal was weaker, but it is not this case.
I use simple version of your app called GPS test - I cant post links yet so there it is:
play(dot)google(dot)com/store/apps/details?id=com.chartcross.gpstest
I have not tried reseting yet, because I think it is a SW problem and I think it is possible to fix it... I hope.

I have done factory reset and GPS worked over the weekend but now same problem again. If I restart 1, 2 or 3 times in a row it may start working again. I will test your solution deactivate Google Play services and restart.

OK. I think you will face a problem with deactivate google play services. It was my first try to solve the problem, but I cant deactivate this in my phone. So insted of google play services I disabled google play store and it finally works(after restart).
Now I have another idea. I will try to unistall all updates from google play store app and we will see. Now it is working, but I will be more confident if it will work tomorrow(over the night) too.

Hi.
Same problem here.
Disabled most Google services without success. Can't disable Google play store itself.
Have tried GPS fix apps without success. Any assistance here would be great as its been about a week now and starting to have a real negative impact.
Cheers
I tried to unistal google play store update, so I had a stock version and it works ok, but I have to have internet connection disabled.
When Internet is on google play store is automaticly updated to last version which is the bad one and problem persist.
So maybe new question - it is possible to block updates for google play store app? Or is it possible to install previous version of this app?
I can use only two of them, the stock one(very very old) and automaticly updated last one. I would prefer last one minus one version that one was ok for me. Any hints how to revert to older version?
If a reset doent fix the issue, i would try to contact HTC and see what they say.
I can write to HTC, but I think I know that they will not able to do anything...
After I enable net connection google play store app update a new version(automaticly during the night even if I disable background data for this app).
Now I have version 6.9.15.G-all [0] 3104571 and after update everything works until phone restart.
Again same situation, but there is a solution, if you kill the google play store app, delete app cache and data, GPS work again.
But I think that works only to the next restart or to the next google play app start(background or by user).

in order to disable Google play store (1)
First, you must have version 4.8.2 installed (just replace it in /system/app with the new com.android.vending.apk)
Download a root service from the store called "Disable service" (again make sure root is installed and the app is given root permission)
Now, in the disable service app, navigate to the system app tab and find Google play store. Tap on it and you will get a list of services
Scroll to the bottom and uncheck "check Wifi And Update" service.
You will see a "please wait" notification, and at the bottom busybox should appear, notifying you that the app was given root access
Exit the app and voila! Google play store will never update itself or Google play services ever again (unless you install a new version, in which case you would need to repeat the process)
Thank you, it is good to know for users with rooted phone.
I have my one in stock conf. without root.
I made a call to HTC and they told me that it is known problem for about two weeks for HTC One, One mini 2 and One M7.
They are trying to do their best to solve the problem but HTC support from Poland resend this problem to HTC support to Egypt and them works on it.
I think that there is only two solutions - new version of Google play store app or HTC software update for One mini 2, both are very complicated, because google do not care about HTC people and HTC stops to pruduce updates for mini 2 for about year and half ago...
They wanted to know IMEI, telephone number and they call me maybe, baby ))

I thought that you will have the problem next day and I do not want to write it there.
I think that problem is somewhere between google play store app and HTC modification of Android in our devices.
I think users cant do anything except disable google play store app, unistal google play store app and disable net connection or wait for HTC update or wait for next version of google play store app.

Google Assistant over Mobile Data

I just updated my watch to Android Wear 2.0
If I try to use Google Assistant while my phone is connected to WiFi, it works (and really well, like to send a whatsapp to someone)
The moment I try to use Google Assistant without WiFi (over Mobile Data) it says 'Can't reach Google, check if watch is connected to WiFi or your phone'
Funny thing: if I connect the phone to a WiFi signal WITHOUT Internet connection, assistant works again...?
Does anyone else have this problem? I already tried enabling every option at Settings/Apps/System Apps/Google ...

Well that is one of the reasons I rolled back to 1.5.
It would work sometimes and many times it would give me that cant reach message so basically it was making my watch useless as it was very inconsistent. :/
I'm having the same issues, I've done the enabling permissions thing as well. Any one have any other experience with the issue?
Along side google assistant not working the play store won't load or even the weather!
That being said, even though those services aren't working google maps on wear runs fine.
These are some odd problems.
*** Update! ***
Not sure what happened but for some reason it started working.

Did you factory reset anything? (your phone or watch?) installed or flash something?
Well I am on the 2 core enabled kernal. I also followed instructions to give Google all permissions on the app Page. I turned on location from phone on the watch (not sure if that helps) and probably reset about 5-7 times haha.

Sure, open settings--> apps ---> (Scroll down) system apps ----> google ---> permissions ---> enable permission to phone/etc... (I enabled all of them)

Also having somewhat of the same issue... Here's what's happening to me.
Sometimes Google Assistant works and sometimes it's doesn't for me. When it's not working my watch shows that I am not connected to Bluetooth in the connectivity settings. However, my phone (ZTE Blade X Max Z983) shows I'm fully connected, and I'm getting all notifications as normal on my Asus Zenwatch 2. If I reboot both devices everything works perfectly as it should for a short time. And of course it works fine when I'm connected to WiFi, just not over Bluetooth on a mobile data connection. Both my phone and my watch are running 7.1 so I'm not sure if the where the issue lies.

P20 Pro Chromecast - Does it work for people?

Hi, I've been trying to chromecast for the last few days. I came from a Nexus 6p which worked 100% with chromecast. If i use the web browser and try to cast from a video channel, it never connects to my chromecast or TV (with chromecast built in). I've tried the mirroring option but it never finds a chromecast. I've downloaded Google Home, that seems to have a bug where i can't login to my google account from my P20 Pro.
I've looked online and on here and haven't seen any other posts on it. It would be good to test. I am on the Dual Sim Three UK 8.1.0.102 (C782) variant.
Thanks
It has worked flawlessly using local cast app.
I've always found Google home glitchy.
Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Works flawlessly for me. I've had the P20 Pro since release and I've never had a problem using a Chromecast, although I did recently factory reset my Chromecast, so that may have fixed any issues.
I use Chromecast several times a day, and haven't noticed anything odd.
I'm using Chrome browser to play web-videos and the Google Home app to mirror the screen.
Haven't used the built-in cast/mirror feature, but that has never worked reliably for me on any device
Thanks all, i wonder what is happening here. Even the Google home app isn't working. It's like an authentication error in the app. Chromecast doesn't connect to either of my chromecast devices. Works fine on my old phone still. I wonder if it's my firmware. I am on .102 which i know is really old. Waiting for Three/Huawei to update...

Chromecast mostly works for me. The only thing that doesn't is volume controls from screen off. Apart from that, and the few normal Chromecast glitches, it works well.
I'm casting NFL Gamepass from my P20 Pro to my Nvidia Shield as I type this, it's worked flawlessly whenever I've tried since I got my phone (mine is also dual SIM from Three).
This works very sporadically for me, often from apps that cast (excluding Netflix and YouTube which have a different mechanism for Chromecast discovery) it's as if the refresh devices button doesn't really trigger a proper refresh.
The Google home app often doesn't show my Chromecasts but if I keep it open and wait maybe 5 minutes they'll eventually show.
Anyone seen anything like this?
I had problem with NBA game time app, it didn't display the cast icon after update of the device to .107 but iwas probably due to the implementation of an old. Chromecast API from NBA app itself. After NBA has updated the app is working perfectly
I streamed YouTube to a chromecast this evening without any problem, worked like expected...
No issues here, sounds more like a network issue to me.

Have you guys tried it with apps other than youtube or netflix?
Those work fine for me but they use a different discovery method, see here;
actually... I can't post links but googling "netflix different chromecast discovery" and going to the google developers discovery troubleshooting confirms this.
Network is also ruled out for me as it's still working flawlessly on my old phone and my wife's phone.
I cast all the time from Plex so it's super annoying not being able to find the chromecasts for 10 minutes and the closing apps/G Home, rebooting etc trying to trigger a discovery.
Cheers,
Jon
Oh a further update to my theory of "the refresh/scan isn't working as it should"
I have a CC that turns off when the TV is turned off and this sometimes appears in the list of devices for hours after it's been turned off, like overnight.
I've tried a factory reset but it didn't help, it's across multiple apps so maybe something to do with discovery in the android discovery software itself?
I wish all the apps just used their own discovery like YT/NF.... grumble, grumble...
Further update...
I'm 90% sure this is due to some overly aggressive power saving. I've also noticed the BBC news widget doesn't update as much as it should.
Today I tested resetting a Chromecast and attaching it as a new one. Didn't work. Needed to use another device to get it set up with Google home. Not ideal. Be interesting to see if anyone else can attach a new Chromecast after factory resetting one if anyone fancies some troubleshooting for me?
Go on, be a pal.
Cheers,
Jon
Works flawlessly in streaming from playmovies to casting the screen
I stream from plex or YouTube to a chromecast without problem
Damn... Maybe it's just some devices or a firmware issue then.
I'm on 8.1.0.103, have you a later one? Might be stuck waiting for an update

I'm on .107 firmware, I never tried older ones.
Im also experiencing some problems with chromecast. Basically, some apps, like spotify, sometimes does not show my chromecasts under devices available.
After some tests, I think it is something related to the wifi strength and wifi+. If I disable the sim data, magically all the chromecasts around my house are correctly detected.

Android Auto didn't starts anymore in my car.

Hello everyone,
first I'm sorry for my english and hope you understand everything.
I'm using Android Auto since two years with the same smartphone a galaxy s8+ (Android 9) in my opel corsa e on an Intellilink R4.0 and most of the time it worked without any problems.
But since one week it didn't starts on the Intellilink.
The last systemupdate from my galaxy was something about four weeks ago and in the mean time everything worked fine.
Each time i connect my Smartphone as usual with the car the Android Auto App shuts down and in the smartphone notification it says that Android Auto is connectet but the Intellilink didn't starts Android Auto. It only offers me to change to my Galaxy s8+ but without any result. If i try to start the Android Auto App (while the smartphone is connected to the car and i tryed it once to change to the galaxy) the "Android Auto" app shuts down immediately.
I deleted the bluetooth-connection in my smartphone and in the car and reconnected both.
I deleted the cache & AppData from "AndroidAuto", "Google Play Service" and from the "Google App".
i deleted and reinstalled the Apps.
I also tryed to use two older versions from those Apps because i thought i updated them recently before it didn't worked anymore but without any success.
I tryed three different USB-cabels...
The data-transfer to my pc works so the USB-Port from the galaxy is okay. no one in my circle of friends has a Android Auto compatible car so i can't test it there.
Somewhere i could read that it could help to enable and disable the usb-debuggin in the devolopmentmode in the galaxy but it didn't helped.
Then i disconnected the Car Battery to make a Hardrest in the Intellilink and again no success.
Confusing was that last thursday on the way home, past 20min of connection and driving it suddenly started in my car and i could use everything as usually (Voice, Maps, Spotify).
But when i arrived home and disconnected the smartphone to try it once more it didn't started.
Till Today i didn't get it to work and i dont know what problem it could be or what else i can do.
The galaxy isn't rooted i don't want to root it.
Once i had a similar problem and some App updates fixed the problem so i'll wait for an update from "Android Auto", "Google-Play-Service" and the "Google App" to try it this way before resetting the galaxy to factory settings.
But I hope that someone can help me and has another idea what i can try to do.
with best regards

I have the same issue with my s9 on my astra. I might have a solution. Every time u connect your phone to your car and the after the notification in your phone comes saying android auto is connected go to photo gallery, search for any random video if u have in your app. Play it n hit back/return key on your phone. Yes its a bit of a struggle but mine one works every time i do this . Looks like a bug
