The blue-tooth adapter you've linked to RESOLVED the hassles I've been having with Android Auto for ages. Thank you! I have spent way too much time and money trying to get this working. $60 adapter works like a charm!
Clicked on the USA link, bought it on Amazon and it works great. Easy installation and setup. I keep the phone in my pocket and Android Auto loads up automatically. Have not had any disconnect problems yet.
I have suffered with this problem for 2 years now. Maybe even longer once I found this video without hesitation. I use a link and made the purchase in a matter of seconds. This problem has been a real pain and thank you very much for putting this video out and helping me get around it. I am for sure subscribing.
Hello Guru. Thank you SO SO MUCH for sharing this resolution. I was really struggling with Android Auto in my VW Golf. I am very disoriented and the navigation system would always disconnect in the worst times. DISCONNECTION ISSUES WERE 100% SOLVED for me with this device. Thanks again and Greetings from Buenos Aires!!
This is awesome. I can't believe what an easy fix this was. Thank you for this video! I have experienced android auto dropping and rebooting for a couple of years now. Sooooo frustrating . Nothing I could do to get it to work correctly. Pain in the a**! I could not use google maps or waze because it would drop after a minute of use. I saw your video, ordered the part, and it has worked perfectly ever since! Now I can use maps with confidence. I can't thank you enough for sharing. You have saved the day. Thanks again!
my rr velar has this issue changed a myriad of cables to no avail. i have a samsung s23 ultra my parner has a samsung s24 ultra hers works fine mine doesn’t . hoping a wireless adaptor will sort it
Mine disconnects off and immediately back on if i move the cable sometimes regardless of new cable etc...which isnt really a problem. But a couple of times it just flat out refuses to connect and wont for like a few days then magically works again🤔
I have a 2022 honda crv that will randomly disconnect after about 15 mintues of use. I have to then disconnect the cable and reconnect. It's just an annoying issue and kind of embarrassing when I sometimes do Uber and it happens. My aftermarket radio in my Ford Expedition does not have this issue so it's just the Honda radio
I'm on a pretty strict budget right now, so I cannot buy just yet, but I have suffered with this for a while now. I had a Subaru as my previous car which had this issue, I have since gotten a new Subaru and still have the issue. I have also swapped out cables more times than I care to admit and probably spent a small fortune on those alone. In addition, my previous phone decided that it wanted a nice bulgy battery, so I had to get a new phone since then... Issue still persists. The fact that this keeps doing this seems to be a real safety hazard. Once I get about 70 dollars saved up, I might consider getting this from this link. Thanks for the idea.
Hmm I've been struggling for a couple of weeks now and my phone never connected in the first place... wondering now if this gadget will results the problem or not. Anyone out there with a Nokia xr20 and a Mercedes gla 2017 model...?
Had disconnect problems several times. I think you might find it is actually a 'cable' issue but not a faulty cable. The slightest knock to the cable causes a split second loss in data connection and that throws things. Put mine in a caddy so the cable was naturally hanging down rather than leaving phone in a storage area of the car where the phone slides a little and cable gets slightly tapped. Had no issues since with any cable (except if I go over a massive pothole).
Forgot to say thanks as its a good fix, it does work and the lag has improved now. I prefer getting into the car and not having to plug something in! ❤
@@donwarren4104 make sure you have updated android auto on phone. Then just connect via bluetooth to the dongle. It should kick in and launch android auto. Make sure your infotainment system has latest firmware update. When first connecting to smartbox you should also be running the cable. Once you have connection you should be able to disconnect cable. Keep trying. Once it gets connected it will connect every time after that.
I am so disappointed because I really wanted this to work. I have a Nissan 2019 Altima and maybe it is my car but this would not stay connected after the car was turned off and left. When I return to the car and started it, I would have to press the Android Auto button on screen which is fine. I’m happy to do that every time if it would connect right away and work right but it didn’t. Then I would go to my phone and have to select the adapter in my Bluetooth devices and at times it started working again but at time it did not. I finally got frustrated with the connection and just went back to my phone / car Bluetooth so I could easily listen to my podcast. Then there were other times when the adapter did connect but listening to my podcast there were constant skips or drops then connect back. Too much to try to overcome so I’m returning this and will try another one.
Resumen: Te falla Android Auto por cable? Cómprate un adaptador usb inalámbrico. Pero no seas estúpido y primero lee el manual, luego no olvides activar Android Auto inalámbrico en sus opciones de desarrollador 🤷♀
Great stuff as have same issue however am now not going to use any of these systems as they take your texts, contacts & driving style then sells that data!
Even if that were true, I really would not care. Unless your a spy then data showing you driving to Lidl and back isnt really going to harm you. It is not admissable in any court so no speeding issues. And it is a dumb unit. You can limit connectivity via phone app if your that worried. But if your that worried you shouldnt have a phone either.
@@thatgearguy its ok if your aware they do these things & consent but your being short sighted as there is legal cases happening because not only car manufacturers own systems are doing this so are things such as Android Auto they sell it to insurance companies and as such you get denied car insurance or premiums rise dramatically without you knowing why & now we know! Also having the govt know how many miles you go & where too on regular basis is not a good thing either as they are trying too implement systems limiting your mileage & charging for such things & stopping your vehicle remotely if you go over said allowance! So having nothing tracking your motoring inc phone by putting it at least in a RF case or min on airplane mode will allow you too travel more freely for longer without being penalised, go look up all ive mentioned central & regional govts/councils/states are doing all of this inconjunction with these systems & these will impact you whether your threat to others or not!!
@@darrylwigginton1067 I am sure you not using Android Auto will make a huge difference! Meanwhile for the 99% of non paranoid folk, this provides a working solution.
I have apple carplay but have the same problem, I was thinking it was my Hyundai Tucson because I also have tried different cables, even upgraded my mobile twice, will give the Bluetooth adapter a try

The whole point of Android Auto is it should automatically connect without this contraption.
Should
but doesnt

It is worth it. My system finally performs as it should have done in the first place..
@@thatgearguy I have bookmarked this video page. Once I get the money, I am definitely looking forward to giving this a try. Thank you very much.
You don't know how big problem you have solved for me.. I was about to sell my car.. Facing this problem
Glad it helped!!
@@thatgearguy I ordered now on Amazon..is it worth buying na ? No hanging no disconnect????
@@pankajgarg1276 it solved my issue 100%
Annoying that a fix to the problem is spending more money.
MINES WON'T CONNECT WHEN I'M USING MY PHONE IN MY VOLKSWAGEN TIGUAN 2018. IF I GET OFF THE PHONE IT CONNECTS

Thank you so much for this video! It is exactly the info I needed. I placed my order through your link. 🙏
Glad I could help. Mine is still working trouble free!
I've been suffering through this for the past year or more; the connection was never rock solid.
Had disconnect problems several times. I think you might find it is actually a 'cable' issue but not a faulty cable.

Agree. This solves all problems and no more messy cables or plugging in. Phone stays in my pocket.
Same thing happened to me on my toyota hilux just purchased a different cable still doesn't work
Try this! Mine is still working well
I have tried 3 of these. They always have connection issues too.
@@joebot2127 Never had an issue neither have many in comments. Maybe you have phone or car issues.
Big thanks I will try this
I get to where my phone says to click on android auto icon on my car and I do and then nothing happens
Plug dongle in. Connect to it via bluetooth.
This needs sent to subaru. They need to answer to this.
My car doesn't support wireless connection. For 2021 toyota.
Neither did mine...
Good video cause marijuanas legal!
The dongle works but there is a lot of lag, sat nav is very jerky. It does solve the issue but almost not worth it with the amount of lag
@@KD99---612 Then you have an issue. Try updating your software on phone and get your car dealer to update the firmware of your system.
Forgot to say thanks as its a good fix, it does work and the lag has improved now.
I prefer getting into the car and not having to plug something in! ❤
Setting not visible?
Update your app?
I check the box for wireless. Did not Work

What if U want it wired???
Then you have to put up with disconnecting all the time..

@@inspirationosix update your phone and update your infotainment system.
Be disappointed Enter an essay contest.
No wireless tick box
Then update android auto app on phone.
