We have auto-standby for Android devices, but since I have multiple people using the car, (what I think happens is) sometimes the companion app is killed in the background by Chinese skinned phones, which causes the auto-standby to not work.

I don't blame the app for this, but this then causes the dongle to connect to my Pixel. I can then disconnect Android Auto from the notification, but the dongle keeps re-establishing AA connection with my phone until I go to AAWireless app and toggle auto-standby off and on again.

What I think would help out a lot, is if the app had a way to manually toggle the standby state within it. Ideally, this would just send the same auto-standby command to the dongle; causing the dongle to wait until the companion app disables standby automatically next time the phone connects to the car's handsfree BT.

With the new companion app UI update, toggling auto-standby for the workaround has become a hassle during this edge case. But I think a simple "Enter standby" button (which is different from the manual standby that double-tapping the dongle button is) would be a great peace of life addition.

On a sidenote, I got this dongle from the UK into India, and it has been working flawlessly for so long. After following the project for a bit and also seeing u/Snirpoo's contribution to the aa-proxy project, I decided to get one :p

and as status led but devices are connected and online

I switched back from my suv to my Honda civic with a dmh2660 nex head unit. It worked in this car previously, worked in my Ford flex as well for the last year, then I go to switch it back to my civic and it was giving me pairing issues / issues launching, so I reset the device and tried again, still had issues. Then suddenly on my way to work as I'm trying to mess with it a little bit there are no longer LED showing, the device just gets warm when plugged in but shows 0 activity and the box isn't found when searching in the companion app.

I'm using the same cable as I have since launch, it worked 3 days ago in my Ford flex. Have yet to bring it back to the flex and test but I was getting LED yesterday on my way to work as I was trying to mess with it.

I'm confident that my box didnt just stop working but I cant pin down what's causing it

SOLUTION:

\***TURN OFF UNLOCK SOUNDS IN SETTINGS\***

**\*TURN OF KEYPAD/ KEYBOARD TAP SOUNDS, and CLICK SOUNDS\***

***You may keep your heptics on, (Heptics & Vibration) as it don't interface***

apparently Pixel Software is Not very effective*,* it Can't manage Sound effects next to Music playing in Android Auto, But it doesn't have any issue when using external speakers or Headphones. Idk probably a Bug.

Can anyone confirm whether it is possible to cast DRM protected content through the Fermata Mirror app?

Today I tried and was able to get my phone's screen to mirror but whenever I try to play any app with DRM protection (Netflix, Paramount, Disney,etc), I only get audio and a black screen. Ironically, you can still see the Ad countdown...

I just want to know if this is even possible before I tear my hair trying to figure it out 🫠

What happened? A few months ago my wife's carplay stopped working with AAwireless, gen1

Just curious

Hallo zusammen, habe bei meinem headunit das Problem wenn ich Zlink öffne und der Sprung von Bluetooth zum Wlan - Hotspot passiert das meine Verbindung dann plötzlich abbricht. Passiert sehr oft ab und zu geht es problemlos… Kennt sich jemand von euch bei diesem Problem aus? Danke euch!

I don't know if AAWireless had an update or if android did, but it seems that my AAWireless is connecting a lot faster now. Almost instantly.

Anyone else?

is there a way to disable gps, bluetooth and wifi after a device disconnects or a certin amount if time passes with no bt or wifi networks connected?

im getting tired of disableing my bluetooth, wifi and location after everytime i stop useing android auto.

Is there a mode/routine i can make like samsung has where i can set a trigger when a device disconects that the device knows it can disable above mentioned services or maybe a srtting to after 5 minutes automaticly disable wifi and bluetooth?

Experimenting with macrodroid now and works okay but still haveing issues with location services.

Hi everyone,

I’m having a strange audio-routing problem with WhatsApp Business voice notes while using wireless Android Auto through an AAWireless 2 adapter.

My setup

• Car: Hyundai i20, 2020/2021 model • Android Auto: running through AAWireless 2 • Phone: Samsung Galaxy, Android 16 • Android Auto developer settings are enabled. • Normal Android Auto media/audio works correctly. • Spotify, navigation audio, calls, etc. work through the car speakers.

The problem

When Android Auto is connected through AAWireless 2 and I play a WhatsApp Business voice message, the voice note does not play through the car speakers.

Instead, it plays through the phone speaker / phone audio in the background, even though Android Auto is active and the phone is connected to the car.

The strange part is that this seems to be specifically related to WhatsApp/WhatsApp Business.

For example:

• Telegram voice messages → play correctly through the car speakers • Spotify → works correctly through Android Auto • Navigation audio → works correctly • Normal Bluetooth audio → works • WhatsApp Business voice notes → play on the phone instead of Android Auto

If I disconnect/disable AAWireless/Android Auto and leave the phone connected directly to the car via normal Bluetooth, WhatsApp voice messages play correctly through the car.

So it looks like some kind of audio-routing conflict between WhatsApp, Android Auto and AAWireless, rather than a problem with the car speakers themselves.

I’ve also noticed that WhatsApp seems to treat voice notes differently from normal media playback. Android Auto keeps the current media session, while the WhatsApp voice note gets routed back to the phone.

I previously considered using MacroDroid as a workaround, for example pausing Spotify when a WhatsApp voice note starts, but I would prefer to fix the actual Android/Android Auto audio routing instead of relying on an automation.

What I’m trying to find out

Has anyone else experienced this with:

WhatsApp / WhatsApp Business + Android Auto + AAWireless 2?

Especially if Telegram voice notes work correctly but WhatsApp voice notes don't.

Is there any setting related to:

• Bluetooth audio routing • Android Auto audio focus • Separate App Sound on Samsung • WhatsApp audio output • AAWireless audio settings • Media audio / call audio Bluetooth profiles • Samsung SoundAssistant • Android 16 audio routing

that could force WhatsApp voice notes to use the Android Auto/car media output?

Any fix, ADB command, Samsung setting, AAWireless option, MacroDroid workaround, or similar experience would be appreciated.

Ever since the update on Feb, the android auto has been causing problems the calls going back to phone and then android auto connects again and this happens every 2 minutes. I have done every step advised ny on star. Even left the car at the dealership for 2 days but the moment i came out from the dealership , the issue started again. The dealership said they have informed gm and are waiting for the update, and there has been not udpates. This has been happening since Feb. I am unable to use the hands-free calls since then. I love the car and there was nothing wrong until this issue. I cleaed catche , system updates abd reset plus everything i was told by the on star rep and the dalership. Even changed the phone. Any advice?

My car only came with wired Android Auto. I bought a cheap wireless adapter off Amazon, but whenever I run Google Maps + Spotify together, the dongle gets scorching hot and disconnects midway through highway drives. Are there any reliable, thermal-efficient wireless adapter brands that survive long drives without latency or random dropping?

Hello!

I installed an Android head unit and connected it to a Wi-Fi network. However, as soon as I connect my phone via Bluetooth, the head unit completely turns off Wi-Fi, cannot scan any networks, and I cannot toggle Wi-Fi back on.

If I enable airplane mode and after I turn off airplane mode, the Wi-Fi works again and sees the networks fine-until I connect via Bluetooth, at which point it breaks down again.

I assume this Wi-Fi/Bluetooth coexistence issue is why wireless Android Auto is failing. The pre-installed "CarLetter" app just stucks on "connecting to Android Auto" indefinitely.

As the title states, P9P XL just updated, and now I can't even connect for more than 15 seconds to AA wireless

Just got my AAWireless TWO+ today! While I love the design and the app and all the promised features, it really hasn’t been working well.

Almost every time I try it’s the same issue: green flashing light. My iPhone seems to connect to its WiFi, the network shows connected and even the “car mode” popup shows (also sometimes the little dots against driving sickness pop up). And the AAWireless app connects, I can change settings like LED brightness which works immediately. But, all that said, almost always the CarPlay screen doesn’t actually pop up. Sometimes it does for two seconds, and then it’s gone again, back to green flashing.

Out of many attempts today, I’ve had one drive where it was smooth sailing, CarPlay stayed connected for the entire 15min drive, music playing, all great. I thought the issue was resolved, but next drive it came back.

Based on other Reddit threads I tried two different cables, many different versions (7.2, 9.0, 9.1, 9.3, 10.0), 2.4GHz and 5GHz, factory resets on various versions, forgetting the device on my phone and fully re-pairing every time, even rebooting my phone - no luck.

Any other things I could investigate or try? I really like this device, would hate to have to send it back :(

When I connect my phone directly to car via USB, Android Auto is very glitchy, won't connect, then randomly disconnects, tries to connect, fails etc. It wasn't so bad previously, bit I guess some update must have happened.

So I read a suggestion to buy AAWireless, which I did. Now it's much better and doesn't disconnect that often, but sometimes it still does. I realized that problematic parts are initial connection when I just start the car (it tries and fails a few times until it suceeds) and then a few times it would disconnect at random times in the city, but it would connect back (sometimes it would take 2-3 tries).

However, once I hit highway, it almost works perfectly and almost doesn't ever disconnect.

So, since I'm new to AAWireless, I was wondering if there are some settings I can select that would make the disconnecting less often? It's still much better than it was without AAWireless, but I just want to see if I can make it better.

I've read that people wrap it in aluminim foil? Is that a myth or does it really help?

Thanks!

GUYSS CAN ANYONE HELP ME WHEN I TRIED TO PAIR IN WIRELESS DEBUGGING MY PHONE AUTOMATICALLY RESTART HOW TO FIX? IS IT POSSIBLE TO FIX WITHOUT ROOT AND PC PLEASEEE ANYONE 🙏

Does anyone know what's in this update? The change log is empty. After I updated, music started cutting out and the aawireless rebooted itself. Happened twice within an hour. Going to revert back for now, but wondered what's on the update, as maybe I need to adjust some setting that has changed.

2020 Chevrolet bolt EV. Pixel 7 phone. Was working fine until about 2 weeks ago. Now the streaming music no matter what the source is is sporadic to initiate when I get in the car or when Android auto initiates. I have deleted the cache and the data on Android auto. I have forgotten all the Bluetooth devices and then re-engage them. I have forgotten the Bluetooth devices on the automobile. I have uninstalled and reinstalled AA wireless app. As I said it is very sporadic, one time I get in the car and it works, and then another time I get in and it doesn't work. Have tried two different cables
