Wired Android Auto issue

USAMAC — Sun, 02 Feb 2025 22:40:34 GMT

I cannot get my S25U to work with my 2020 Chevy Silverado. My S24U had no issues connecting on the day of or for the past year for that matter.

My phone and truck both say it's connecting, but it never comes up.

Here's the message that I get on my infotainment:

Connecting to Android Auto Phone

Check phone for messages.

Cancel

I've tried clearing cache on my phone, no updates available on the phone or infotainment.

I've tried both usb ports and 2 different new cords.

If I were having this issue, I would first clear the cache on the Android Auto app, if that didn't work, I would then clear the data on the Android Auto app....have you tried that?

This was the fix. I feel dumb for not trying first. In my defense, I did search for the app in the app try, but did not go so far as to look for a system app in settings under Apps! Clearing Data on Android Auto, did fix my connection. Thank you!

Glad you figured it out! Please don't feel dumb. When troubleshooting, it's easy to take steps "out of order", or to forget to try something. It happens all the time! That's why online communities like this are a thing...enjoy the rest of your day 👊

The issue for me, was resolved by clearing data on the Android Auto app.

To find it, you'll need to open Android Settings, then go to Apps, then search for Android Auto.

You'll want to Force Stop then click on Storage and select Clear Data.

You could try Clearing Cache first, but that did nothing for my situation.

Clearing Data, immediately fixed the hangups I was getting, that you're getting now.

Ik had dit probleem ook.
Heleboel stappen gevolgd (andere kabel etc.). Uiteindelijk is het
opgelost door
a. het infotainmentsysteem van mijn Mazda 2 opnieuw op te starten
b. cache en gegevens verwijderen van Android auto op je smartphone
c. autoblocker uitgeschakeld

Toen pas kabeltje verbonden en ja! Hij heeft eindelijk Android Auto gevonden.

Bedankt voor de eerder gegeven tips!

What language is this? My AI and translators are clueless too

@USAMAC The post by @Anne1 is in Dutch.

Translation:

I had this problem too.
Followed a lot of steps (different cable, etc.). Ultimately it is solved by
a. restart the infotainment system of my Mazda 2
b. delete cache and data from android auto on your smartphone
c. autoblocker disabled

Only then connected the cable and yes! He finally found Android Auto.

Thanks for the tips given earlier!

I have the same issue. Have cleared data and tried a cable that works perfectly in my other vehicle. I think I'm just going to buy a wireless adapter.. tired of switching cables every time I switch between my android and wife's iPhone anyway.

The only thing I could find to provide wireless android auto connectivity for my 2020 Silverado was an addon unit that costs ~$800. It also required removing the infotainment unit from the dash to install it.

If you find a more reasonable and frankly convenient alternative option, please share here! I thought I'd find some usb dangle to plug in that would provide this basic feature.

This is the one I use. I've been using it since Christmas with minimal problems. The only problem I've had, is when I'm in an area with a lot of interference (I live in Minnesota, so downtown Minneapolis) it will disconnect and my infotainment goes blank for about 5 seconds and then it reconnects.

@USAMAC I bought one of these. Very easy to mount, connect and use. No tearing up your dash. Link -> https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGTSWPNX?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1
