Android auto

[Prof1967]

Finally had enough of android auto not connecting and I am thinking of moving to the dark side and getting an iphone.

Before I do has anyone found an android phone that connects to android every time without fail?

If so what make and model are you using?

I have tried all the workarounds and numerous quality leads. My Huawei P30 Pro has always had connection problems and my Samsung A70 goes through phases of being able to connect and then refusing point blank.

Yea come over to the dark side prof, you know it makes sense...

I use a One plus 7, my wife has a Nokia and my daughter connects her OnePlus5T.
All connect ok.
You may have to press the Bluetooth link button to switch between phones but it works fine.

My phone works flawlessly but it won't help you; it's a Huawei P30 Pro!

Can you check I About phone in settings and see what model number you have and also the build number?

I think there are a number of different model numbers some of which work and others that don't.

You may have the same problem with an iPhone, most problems seem to be the cable, I suspect the USB port in the car is not very good quality as well.
Best bet would be to try someone else's iPhone before going to the expense of buying one.

I'd change the car rather than buy an iPhone

Tried the iphone I've been given for work and it connects first time. I've tried several different cables including 3 brand new supposedly high quality ones with my two android phones. Use the same cables with my sons S7 and it connects no problem.

My model number is VOG-L29 with 2 IMEI numbers (possibly because its dual SIM).

I have the same phone and had the same problem. Bought a fast charge cable from amazon and now works OK.

Do you think you could find the Amazon link for it?

Amazon product ASIN B073SFCH94

 

[Chriswbread]

That's the one I got. There are others. You just need a fast charging one.

I'm seeing blank lines so I am guessing links to amazon are blocked here :-(

That's great thank you. It's really good to have a confirmed working cable, removes the 'luck' element

It's not you
