Hi,
Anyone has some information about Android Auto Wireless?
Pioneer presented the first AA wireless headunit 2 weeks ago.
I think VW Discover Pro MIB2 with latest FW can support AA wireless as there are some codings for this .
Is there an new version from AA for wireless support ?
There is no such option in the latest APK on play store
Interested about news and reviews on wireless Android auto units...I read all the news / press release and see few videos of the units but we have to wait until March / April for release...
I emailed Kenwood about theirs, but they just said they did not have a release date available yet
This looks legit.
Can someone with a Nexus or Pixel confirm this?

Looks like today's update from the play store has it.. if you don't see the update, you can get the latest version from apkmirror.

afaik the HU will require Wi-fi for wireless android auto.
I can confirm that the Discover Media MIB2 with Navigation (I have one in my 2017 Tiguan MK2) has Wifi built in, and the headunit coding does have options for both wireless Car Play and Wireless Android Auto. However, these are both SWaP (Software As Product) functions so need activation codes from VW to enable.
I have successfully enable WiFi on my head-unit, but there isn't much you can do with it since all the connected features require VW CarNet, which isn't available in New Zealand.
Currently using the jvc kw-m845bw that supports Wireless Android auto. Currently driving right now with the wireless Android auto working. It's a nice feature, but it would be much nicer if carstream worked on it.

Hi, @rester555
Could you please let me know, how phone and car are connected? Bluetooth or wi-fi? How AA is started? Are you starting manually?
So, wireless thing is new for me, that is why asking?
Thanks in advance.

@henno88 Sorry for the late post. So when I connect my car it seems to be handshaking on bluetooth and wifi when the head unit is connected. I think when I make calls it's connected to bluetooth, but when I activate Android Auto, it's connected via wifi. I am driving a 2013 ford focus with the JVC KW-M845BW. For my phone, I am using the Pixel 2 XL unlocked variant.

To everyone here. Carstream also allows you to play youtube videos on the Android Auto as well now with version 2.0.
Tried to apply "How To use Android Auto Wireless!" but is halted
Hi
Sorry if I mess threads and things up, but I don't know where to stage my question???
I have followed the instructions in xda video "How To use Android Auto Wireless!" on Youtube and I have a question on one of the stages.
At one point I get a screen where I can choose on "Toggle Wifi on Power" among other things, and the video doesn't tell me what to do. There are no OK button or equivalent.
I can't post a pic or link to pic while I'm new here.

Replying to an old post, I know, but has there been any development on using the Discover Media built-in WiFi with wireless Android Auto? I have enabled WiFi in my Mk7 Golf and find that it is similarly useless in Australia - can't even stream music. Wireless AA would be absolutely awesome.
after updating to oreo i'm not able to use android auto.
everything right now is at latest version.
android auto will not detect the headunit and add it as a "Car".
have tried multiple quality cables including oem samsung
the phone detects the connection and is charging, it also shows up as "data transfer" mode
bluetooth works fine, the spotifty function on the headunit will work if android auto is running on the phone however android auto will not mirror to the headunit while usb connected.
What version of Android Auto? Maybe downgrade back to 2.9.
Was 3.1 I will try 2.9
Thanks

2.9 didn't work either. and way to debug this?
I still can't get this to work.
pioneer wont help me, google wont help me.
I've reset my phone countless times.
any way to force AA to load on HU?
Was this ever solved? Not sure if these are related or not. I did not pay any attention to what version my S8+ was until now. Could it have taken ATT this long to upgrade my phone to Oreo?
Here is my story ...
I have Galaxy S8+ running 8.0.0. My Pioneer AVH-2330NEX is running firmware 8.35 dated July 2018. AA quit working after the Jan 2019 update to the phone. I get an "Andriod Auto stopped working" on the head unit. Here is the troubleshooting I have done so far.
I have tested the phone on a 2016 Honda factory head and all works. I have tested the Pioneer head with a friends old 1+1 (6.0.1 Cyaongen 13.1) and it works with the Pioneer.
But the S8+ and Pioneer do not.
Any thoughts?

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.
Hi,
I would like to upgrade my MMI 3G Basic.
What can you recommend Android Auto Box or Android Device dedicated to my Audi?
And if you have already this, are you happy with that, elder exactly can you recommend?

Android head units and Android Auto are two different things.
In my experience, unless you enjoy tinkering are an Android enthusiast, enjoy fixing problems, occasionally having to reset the device and putting up with bugs; go with a genuine Android auto or apple carplay unit and not a Chinese hacked Android headunit. Have a quick read through the (MTCD) Android head unit forums.
Note that people mistake "zlink" screen mirroring on Chinese Android head units (which are NOT Android Auto) like the above poster has.
Zlink is a buggy screen mirroring app, not certified or supported by Android or Apple.
If screen mirroring is what you want, avoid hacked Chinese Android head units.
Above poster is confused. These "chinses devices" work relatively well and have connectors to " piggyback " on exiting Audi MMI setup to provide "native" Carplay, and Android auto features in addition to phone mirroring options. Here is also another option from a UK company: https://integratedautomotive.co.uk/...g-plus-retrofit-carplay-and-android-auto-kit/ .
Alpine provide full MMI system replacments, but they're not cheap...
You'd probably be looking for the X703D-A4 model. (or X703D-A4R if you're in a right hand drive country)
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.

En anglais, si tu plait.
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.
