Installed Blackball's fRomFuture ROM, working well and it's fast but the AA bugs are still there.

Bugs are:
- Phone calls go to the handset instead of showing on the HU. This prevents the HU from being able to control calls and I have to answer and end them with the phone itself. The workaround is to either stop the Dialer process before plugging into the HU, or install Google Phone 7.0.140861421-nonnexus (noarch) (nodpi) (Android 6.0+) and set it as default dialer. Only bug then is the clock/timer on calls shows system time or something like 422031:23:59. No big deal there.
- Waze works one time, but as soon as the phone is rebooted it will halt the maps process on the HU. App still works fine when unplugged. Once this happens you have to either; clear cache and data from AA, enable developer mode in AA and start Maps from the "Back to Sync" icon (developer mode adds options here - Ford Sync), or uninstall Waze. I have not found another reliable workaround and it seems like this is a very common Huawei issue, not just P10 Plus.

Wondering if anyone else has found workarounds for these?
