The update process doesnt work for me... after 10 seconds the AAW device reboots and once its bootet again the app says failed. What i am doing wong? The first update worked without issues?
Did the progress "bar" completely fill up? Did the LED on the device went yellow(-ish)?
the device starts at solid blue and turns after 10s to blinking green... the app shows "starting update" but the "progress bar - logo filling animation" does nothing and after the device is up again it shows failed... rebooted the phone 2 times and tried 10 times...
I'm not sure why it worked the first time, but could you try to update it on an USB power adapter? This way AA won't fully start and won't conflict with the update process.
Well that i cannot explain... I'll have to look into it. Anyways there's an alternative way to OTA update the device. I'll PM you the wifi password. And you can follow these instructions:
- Download this firmware: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mMXka6khO59Fre3PZgF6RxRKYT5bncjZ/view?usp=sharing
- Connect to the AAWireless WiFi network from a PC (AAWireless-xxxxx) with the password I sent you.
- Go to http://10.42.1.1:8080 in your browser and drag in the firmware file. It will reboot the board when it's done.
I took a short ride and could not force the hu to restart (spammed the next title button)... i noticed, that some songs dont start immediatly but with a delay... i think thats the trick
. (i had the adjust timestamp option off to test)Hopefully this is the solution
Hi, Anyone had success with Civic (2016 or later) version? I am able to setup first time but after the car restart it stops working and Head unit shows "Connected device not responding..." message.
Car: Civic 2016
Mobile: Pixel 4
Firmware: 1.2

Mobile: Pixel 4
Firmware: 1.2
Confirmed it with someone else as well. Well if this is the solution, then it's just a bug (or feature?) in Android Auto itself (which the VW can't handle). Has probably been there for years... And somehow, I don't know why yet, more latency (cause of WiFi) makes it worse.I took a short ride and could not force the hu to restart (spammed the next title button)... i noticed, that some songs dont start immediatly but with a delay... i think thats the trick

Adjust timestamp is hardcoded to on BTW, to avoid any confusion
Update:
Doesn't fully seem to solve it, but it does improve the situation for sure.

AA over CP is NOT a core feature. In fact even CarPlay is NOT a core feature (yet). Its beta... We dont advertise it anywhere. Its a nice extra, but that's it. Sorry but these "paperweight" comments annoy the heck out of me. Some people expect their issues to be fixed right away. That's just not how it works.2
Blue means working correctly, so you're ok.
It's not possible right now, we have to implement it. But it's quite some work and it will be pretty wonky with all the screen sizes and stuff.
AA over CP is still very much beta quality. We'll add these issues to our backlog, but right now AA over CP has low prio.2
It is treated correctly. It's on our backlog and does not have priority right now unfortunately. I do agree our support may have given false info though... So in that sense you have been brushed off. I'm sorry for that.1
@Snirpo
Why don't you guys just delete AA over CP?
Then you can focus on your real product and prevent any bad comment about the stability of AA over CP...
Just my opinion.1
We can add a feature to disable AAW temporarily. Will probably add it as an "app shortcut" so you can place it on your homescreen.Well that did not work, because the phone, a Pixel 7A, turned both Bluetooth and Wifi back on Tried it numerous times in the car with same results, away from the car both settings remained off as expected. I also want to keep Bluetooth on for hands free phone calls.

49This thread is dedicated for AAWireless users.
AAWireless is a device which allows you to transform your existing wired Android Auto compatible unit into a Wireless Android Auto unit.
General chat, experience sharing and community support should be expected as well as support from the developers of the product: @Snirpo and myself.21
I know I should ignore these posts, but these are the comments why I'm honestly considering completely dropping out any forum / reddit / social media. What's the point? We have support, we have warranty, we have a refund policy. It might be "beta" for you, but we shipped over 100k devices and believe me or not, for most, it just works. It's the same thing for all of these dongles. They will not work perfectly for all, there are just too many variables.16I just want to leave a big THANK YOU for the developers! You invented a great product and do a great job here.
Anyone who has ordered the product knows that it is a crowdfunding project, which may also have teething problems. I find it cheeky to get upset about problems, even though they are dealt with promptly here. What more should the distributors do than react to the problems here and offer solutions?
I also have problems with the device, but I was helped quickly. Even if it takes a few days.
Dear team: Keep up the good work!15We fixed the "VW Headunit crashing on skipping tracks" issue now completely. Confirmed it's a bug on the HU side, latency makes it worse. We will probably push a new firmware by the end of this week.
I will also submit a bug report to Google, cause they can fix/workaround this issue as well for cabled users.
