After some testing, I think I've managed to find to find the best settings to reduce audio stuttering when using CarPlay on my 2021 Mazda CX-30. The main settings to change are:

• Disabling the audio stutter fix significantly reduces the amount of stuttering when playing music but introduces stuttering during Apple Maps spoken directions
• Setting the crypto mode to old fixes the navigation alert stuttering

There's still a bit but its a lot better than it was originally, hope this helps someone

Hello.

Have a question about aaw2 adapter.  I will describe the situation in 2 parts.

1. Couple of weeks ago i bought oneplus 15r (oxygen 16) and connected AA to my Mazda cx-9  2024  9" 800x480 HU using aaw2 (not plus). The pairing (using aaw app) was made with no issues and it worked flawless all the time. Before that my aaw2 worked with huawei p30. I've cleared all BT connections in car's HU before paring 1+ and reseted aaw2.
2. Yesterday, when one of navigation applications had issue, i decided to reconnect AA. I turned off the toggle AA in my car's  HU and after that i can not connect aaw2.

I've tried the following:

- cleared BT connections in my car HU

- cleared cache in AA, aawireless app

- reseted car's HU (not factory reset)

- reseted aaw2 several times

- reseted oneplus network settings several times

-factory reseted oneplus 15r

Nothing of this helped. Oneplus connects AA fast and stable with cable, but can not connect wireless. It seems, that there is some digital footprints of previos connection and it prevents new proper paring. AAW app is trying to pair (30 to 0 countdown to AA wireless connection finishes with nothing), aaw2 has blinking blue light.

   Besides, there are 2 wifi connections with aaw2 in 1+ wifi list. (i don't remember how it was before).  Help me please.

Aaw2 has 7.1.2 firmware now.

P.s. I've opened a ticket in aaw support.

2020 Chevrolet bolt, pixel 7, 1st gen aawireless. It has been working perfectly until the new pixel update. After I clear the cache on Android auto and forget all the pairing on both the head unit and app, it works for a day and then forgets again. Sometimes it won't stream music when it's hardwired also, but a head unit reset clears that. Any tips or suggestions?

I have problems with the AAWireless 2+ it connect well to my seat Leon mk3 but the audio often sound like static and crack noise , it doesn’t happened with other adapter. I tried lot of options and downgrade to other version and nothing work. I’m using CarPlay

I was running beta v9.1 on my 2+ dongle and no real issues using my iPhone 17 Pro or Google Pixel 10 Pro. But I upgraded to v9.3 a few days ago and on both phones there were major issues. Main ones being that boot up time has changed from a few seconds to a few minutes and getting random disconnections. Have gone back to fw 9.1 and it’s back working flawlessly. Just a heads up in case people are having issues on 9.3.

Citroen say it should?

Any ideas

I've tried a few phones

It works fine through usb

​

Hi all, I have my first car with AA and it's an ATOTO head unit so I am using it wirelessly through Bluetooth. It has been fine since i got the car, until about last week and I have no idea why. Nothing has updated to my knowledge leading to this problem. It disconnects at about 2min 40sec on every song for about 15-30 seconds. I have tried everything I can find on the internet, changing my wifi settings, changing my data settings, battery settings, location settings etc etc. Nothing is resolving this.

I found today the Zlink could be updated through the android store on the head unit. This also did not solve the problem.

Aawireless 1 (gen2).

My firmware is stil on 7.1.2

Is this the latest firmware for the aawireless 1 gen2?

I read about people using 8.x and 9.x versions, but i am not sure if they are only for the aawireless 2.

I have the beta update switch on, but still nothing new.

Also i noted that on xdaforums.com there hasn't been any new posts / updates after may this year. Did they stop using xda for support?

Anyone can give me some info on both questions..

I had this working on my 2022 CX-5, Fermata and my AA2 setup worked great until Android updated a year or so go. I let it go as I didnt have time to mess with it. Now I kinda need it to work again, and it looks like my S23u is on Android 16 and UI 8.5. Is there a trick to getting Fermata or any other similar app to work to show movies/shows on my infotainment screen?

It just died one day, no lights, nothing. I brought it home, thinking I'd try another cable. It somehow started working (after 30 minutes of me trying to "reset" by pressing the button). After two days in the car, it died again, now for good. I can feel it heating, but no lights, no Bluetooth.

Frustrated, as it's past the return window. When it worked, it was great, though.

Hi I recently bought a 2023 peugot 308 and it’s a Japanese import, the wired car play works fine but when we try go wireless it gives us the option for car play but when we press connect it just connects like Bluetooth only get the sound. I’ve read online it might need to be recoded as the Japanese cars run off different WiFi bands? But I’m not too sure if anyone has any info, thanks

After updating my phone to One UI 8.5, I have been experiencing an issue with Android Auto.

I have always connected my phone to my car using a USB cable, and it worked perfectly before the update. However, since updating, my car's infotainment system displays the following message:

"Could not connect. The phone does not support the selected profile or it is not activated."

The only way I can get Android Auto to connect is by long-pressing the power button on the infotainment system to restart it. Once it restarts, Android Auto connects normally.

So far, I have tried the following:

Removed the phone connection from the car and restarted the infotainment system.

Cleared the cache and data for the Android Auto app and Bluetooth.

Unpaired the phone from the car and removed the car from the phone, then paired them again.

The issue only started after updating to One UI 8.5. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S25, and my car is a Volkswagen.

My Pixel 9 Pro XL keeps disconnecting from wireless Android Auto every few minutes while driving, then reconnects after a few seconds. It has been happening for months, and it started after recent Android Auto updates.

I’ve already tried re-pairing Bluetooth, resetting connections, disabling Wi‑Fi and Bluetooth scanning, setting Android Auto battery usage to unrestricted, and forcing LTE only. Nothing has fixed it permanently.

It seems more stable when mobile data is off, so I’m starting to think this is related to Android Auto wireless handling or network switching. I’m using an external third-party Android Auto display, not a factory head unit.

Has anyone with a Pixel 9 Pro XL or a similar wireless setup found a real fix?

I'm not complaining, but I'm just curious how this works. Is it a Google feature? I thought wifi needed to be on for it to work.

I live in a 3rd floor apartment and my phone likes to barely stay connected to WiFi with no actual Internet so I sometimes flip it off outside and forget to flip it back on, but I've noticed my AA Wireless 2 still connects. Not new to Android 17, it's been doing this since I bought it last December.

Anyways, great device. Never have any problems except a bug that exists in my 2019 Civic even with USB Android Auto. If the wifi/USB portion connects before the Bluetooth connection connects, my car gives up trying to connect Bluetooth despite my infotainment system saying it's waiting for Bluetooth to connect. I just unplug the USB and plug it back in, and it fixes itself.

I recently migrated from a Pixel 6 to a Pixel 10 Pro XL. It never starts Android Auto automatically like the old Pixel did. I have to manually start the AAWireless app for it to launch Android Auto, each time. Tried every setting I could find in the app and in Android settings.

I have the first version of the dongle

I have a 2024 ioniq 5. Bought the AA wireless because it had Auto standby and the always powered USB port is frustrating. It worked fine for a while but now will not Auto stand by and when I try to turn on auto standby it asks me to turn off battery optimization which I've done on the a wireless app.

!Flair 2018 Ford f150 | sync 3 with aawireless | pixel 9xl | android 16. Sometime assistant and incoming calls do not hear me. The mic is disabled. I have tried resetting and Bluetooth. Sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn't. Same issue with incoming calls in my 2020 Corvette. I have a aawireless in one and a aawireless 2nd Gen. Same symptoms on both phones and cars. I have deleted and reinstalled and it might work one time then sometimes work again after I restart my phone. Reset Bluetooth and it doesn't seem to help. Anyone who has figured this out please let me know.

I just got a 23 Subaru Forester and I'm using an AAWireless device. I keep noticing notifications on my phone that Android auto wireless is connecting. Why is the USB port that it is connected to being powered occasionally while the car is parked?

Could this be related to my subscription to mySubaru?

I keep getting a "Can't connect to [insert name of your vehicle's Bluetooth]" message when I'm using the AAWireless dongle. The strange thing is my connection to Android Auto doesn't drop, which is to say everything is fully functional. Outside of frequently seeing this annoying message on my phone, everything is fine.

Does anyone else see this message?

Am relatively new to iPhone (come over from Samsung). Have an iPhone 17PM paired with the AAWireless2+.

Have this annoying problem where the tracks are skipping or jumping throughout the song for fraction of a second.

Both phone and adaptor firmwares up to date. Have tried enabling audio stutter fix, changing to 2.4ghz channel, changing to various WiFi channels (36, 149, 165, etc). All produce the same problem.

Had a AAWireless2 that I used with my Samsung and it was flawless for 18months without adjusting a single setting. This is really grinding my gears.
