Samsung mobiles tested: A23, A54 and S22. Observed the same in the all the mobiles
While connecting the Samsung phone to Infotainment in Car using USB cable for wired android auto (USB Debugging is also ON), wireless debugging got disconnected and showing as device offline.
Tested with pixel phone where this scenario is possible and wireless debugging stays active.
settings/security and privacy. Scroll down to auto blocker, tap it and turn it off if it's on. Auto Blocker prevents any actions from being executed via USB.
Why do you need USB debugging? My understanding is that this is a diagnostic/troubleshooting tool. In all the years I've been using phones, I've never once had to use USB debugging. If you are plugging into your car to use Android Auto, debugging is not needed. As long as auto-blocker is off, the connection should work as it's supposed to. If it is not working, that's a different issue, and is more likely cable related.
I'm doing automation testing for a car infotainment.
I don't have any issue with USB debugging, it's working fine. But I have to use USB connection and also wifi debugging at a time for one of my use case. If I'm trying to connect the USB cable to the car, then Wireless debugging connection got lost and in the adb devices command, I could see the device is showing as offline.
