Hi guys
So count me in for being one more person unable to properly connect this full link thing by using android auto
mobiles here are both samsung galaxy s8+, s7 edge and s5. Tried combinations within the cables and mobiles, tried resetting and redoing bt connections etc etc
With mirror link there is no problem, connection established everytime.
Samsung uses a galaxy app called car mode, don´t know about other brands but I guess this is just a straight connection protocol with a few (very few) options. It starts automatically when you plug in the usb cable.
What happens is as soon as I plug in the USB cable the head unit within a 3 or 4 sec delay returns a msg saying "connection interrupted) and goes back to connection options while the mobile phone says the car is currently connected. As said previously I have no prob with the mirror link connection but there´s an annoyance: after you connect successfully through mirror link the very first time when you plug in the usb cable it will go straight to mirror link apps. So I have to reset, uninstall the samsung car mode app, and redo all again (to no success in android auto mode of course)
I really need to access waze and google maps which I cannot in mirror link.
Any ideas what to do next ? maybe a trip to the rep although I doubt they will solve this ? attached pic is my nav version and maps
