Hey all, just have a question.
I have a liquid aux bluetooth receiver in my car, it plugs into the power outlet and the aux port in my car. It connects about half the time when I turn my car on, but I hate having to go thru the menus to connect it manually.
Is there any way I can have it connect to the car maybe using a widget so it's only 1 click, or any other alternative method I'm unaware of to connect to this one specific bluetooth piece? I don't use a headset or anything, just this 1 piece.
I tried using tasker to automate it but couldn't make it work every time, made it worse in fact.
I guess no one knows then. Anyway, shameless bump
When I get in my car my phone connects to my stereo automatically and all and all the A2DP functions work great. Only thing is I normally keep my phone on vibrate, and multimedia sound off so I don't accidentally make noise in an inappropriate place. The problem with this split setting for sound in android is I can't just bind the two and either put my phone with audio on or off generally. Is there a way to turn off multimedia sound with I connect to my stereo and turn it back off when I disconnect? My old wm phones did this no problem.
thanks!

Perfect. Only problem is I use a generic phone holder and usb power supply... how does it know its docked?
*edit* solution might be found... the same people who make car dock settings have bluedock 3 which does the same using the bluetooth profile (similar to Advanced Audio Manager once combined with "car dock settings")
I also found Toggle Settings|Profiles Lite which might work... I will try them all and report in case anyone ever asks the same question and falls on this thread
**second edit, reporting on the apps**
Toggle Settings\Profiles Lite works great. It takes up about 1mb ram rather than 150k compared to car dock settings and another 100k for bluedock 3, but its a free all-in one package that is MUCH more powerful and versatile. With the lite version you get 3 "Rules", I used one to make my car settings based on connecting and disconnecting from my stereo.It allows me to change just about anything on connect\disconnect and lets me create two other rule sets I could want (and as many as I want if I pay for the full version). I strongly recommend this app to anyone and everyone who wants to have automated location\connection\event\time based actions. The only down side is it takes about 15 seconds for the bluetooth to register as being connected (so be patient), but I think this is part of android because wifi-related events are instant.
I just recently bought a Pebble watch and now my bluetooth connection to my HTC audio dongle has been acting weird.
I have an NFC sticker in my car and when scanned it turns on bluetooth, connects to the bluetooth audio dongle, launches Google Play music, then plays the music.
Ever since I bought the the Pebble it goes through this process when the sticker is scanned, but then the phone disconnects from the dongle and music playback stops. I have a Bluetooth Auto Connect widget on my home screen and when pressed it quickly makes a connection again. I can always add that task to the end of the rest of the steps onto my NFC sticker to reconnect, but why is it disconnecting in the first place?
I'll also note that I'm not using my Pebble at the time, so it seems like it disconnects from the dongle and tries to search for the Pebble. Any ideas what's going on and why it would be disconnecting from the dongle after it clearly makes a connection?
Any help would be appreciated...this is getting super annoying.

The reason it is doing this, is because the Pebble people won't get BTLE (Smart) working on Android, so it has to use the "old" Bluetooth, and it's a single point connect system (it can only connect to 1 device at a time, and switching takes a while to do, and mainly added for music/phone being 2 devices). If they would support Smart, that's a different "radio" (but same chip) and was design to switch VERY quickly and hook to many devices, so you could be connected to both the radio (old BT radio) and the watch (Smart radio) at the same time. This is why I still don't have a Pebble, and won't get one until they support Smart on Android.
My guess as to why it switches, is they're custom app is seeing the disconnect (the connect to the radio) from the pebble, and forcing a reconnect.

So will I be able to have the Pebble and my audio dongle connected at the same time? I'm at work and left the Pebble at home so can't experiment at the moment. It would be a shame if I can't, the main reason for getting the Pebble was to use it as a remote while the phone is connected to the dongle.
But when I do reconnect to the dongle it stays connected and works properly and doesn't disconnect. I'll just add on a pause in the NFC steps using tasker then add in another step to reconnect to the dongle, hopefully this will get it working back to "normal" again.
I didn't realize BTLE didn't work on Android with the Pebble. But what I did notice which is different from connecting to other bluetooth devices is when Pebble is connected to the phone the Bluetooth symbol on the notification bar doesn't have the two little triangles on either side of the B symbol such as when my dongle or other bluetooth devices I have are connected, yet the Pebble is still connected to the phone and works fine. I assumed it was because it was using BTLE.
Thanks for the info

Gonna be a long read, with many tips
So, I have an Android headunit and was using the built-in Carplay app Zlink. Now I'm using Carlinkit dongle for Carplay, and here's why.
I'm referring to Carlinkit wireless carplay dongle, not Carlinkit wired to wireless adapter - very important!
As you already know, using Carplay in Android headunits generally introduces some audio lag, especially on wireless carplay. For example it takes some time after you press "next song" until the current song stops and the next one starts. Same with pause. Especially with wireless Carplay.The biggest issue for me is during phone calls, when you ask a question, takes a while to get an answer, and you also end up talking over eachother.
This is what I did: In the recent versions of Autokit with a recent version of the box firmware there is an advanced option to route audio through car bluetooth instead of through box. (not sure exactly what version you need, but latest versions have this option)If you select this, you need to connect your phone to the headunit bluetooth also, not only to autokit's box bluetooth (you connect to box BT for wireless)
Doing this allows for all audio to go through headunit's bluetooth which is basically lag-free.
So my setup is like this:
Wired: phone is connected by USB to dongle, and by BT to unitWireless: phone connects to box BT then to box WiFi for Carplay, and meanwhile also connects to head unit's BT for audio.
Advantages:
- No more lag when switching music or making calls, even in wireless carplay mode
- When the unit detects a call, it might do something smart that you want. Mine has a different volume for in-call, so I can now have louder phone calls without manually changing volume
- Since the phone is playing music over the BT connection, the unit is now aware that music is playing and knows artist and track name and it might display it somewhere, maybe have an overlay when changing tracks. Might be nice if you switch outside Carplay to some other screen/app on the unit.
- No more lag
- If unit has proper echo cancellation, it should work better, as BT is better controlled by the unit, unlike Carplay solutions which can have various delays that the unit cannot counter easily.
- If you were using built-in Carplay before (like I was), you wouldn't be able to use wireless Carplay and have internet from a hotspot, since unit's wifi was busy. If you switch to using Carlinkit dongle with Autokit, you free up unit's wifi and can now use a hotspot.
- Did I mention no more lag?
Disadvantages:
- Seems to use more battery when in wireless carplay mode, I think BT is less power efficient. My unit has BT 4.0, if yours has BT 5.0 maybe this would be better.
- This is a minor annoyance, but if your headunit BT is slow to connect to the phone (mine is) and you start playing music as soon as you have Carplay working (or have autoplay enabled), you might have music coming out of the phone speaker(s) for a few seconds, until unit BT connects and music goes to BT.
Beware the following:
- When using BT to listen to music, the volume on the phone matters, so make sure to turn it up to max. This volume level will be saved separately from usual phone volume though, so it's not a problem.
- Latest version of Autokit didn't find box updates for me, so if this option is not in the advanced settings, you might need to revert to an older version and use that to update box, then update app.
- After making this setup and trying to make a call, you might not hear anything, as the phone might use the carplay connection instead of the bluetooth connection. Just switch output from the phone "audio" button, and it seems to remember it for next times.
- Depending on the headunit and the software, when you get a call with this setup, headunit might decide to switch to it's own bluetooth phone app or just show an overlay. If it switches and it bothers you, try to find a solution specific to your unit. If it's an overlay and you want to remove it, what worked for me was going into android settings for app permissions and removing permission to draw over other apps for the unit's bluetooth app.
thanks for your post; i have a carplay dongle connected to an android headunit; when i call someone they have a very annoying echo voice. i wish it improves when my phone it connect to headunit bluetooth for calls
Are you able to get navigation audio using this option? I have the same dongle and was hoping I would get navigation too but I only get music audio. If I say "Hey Siri" just before Waze/Google Maps is about to prompt then I can hear the audio but doesn't really help me when driving. Looks like in my car the Navigation audio is going over the Siri channel? Not sure if anyone has a work around for that. Could be the way my car has bluetooth setup -- it's a 2012.
Can you provide a link or exact model for the "Carlinkit wireless carplay dongle"?

What is your box version?
When I try audio routing, on my iPhone still it shows Carplay as sound output option.
I tried this same option, but when my iPhone connects to wireless CarPlay, the head unit (not the dongle) turn off the bluetooth automatically, anyone knows how to stop this?

Wait, What??? the only way to remove the 3 second lag from headunit with zlink is by buying a dongle ??? I paid extra for Carplay/Android Auto Headunit.
And the 3 seconds delay is driving me nuts. This happens even without the zlink app open.
The dongle is carlinkit Autokit (CPC200-CCPA)? It is specially made for Android head units.
Hello everyone,
A month ago, I bought a stereo with Android 11 that has Zlink 5.2.2 installed, and I used it so far with an iPhone 8 until I get the Android phone I had just bought. Everything was fine with Carplay, I used Waze and Youtube Music simultaneously and had no problems.
Once I connected my Android phone (Oneplus 9 Pro) to the stereo with Android Auto wireless, the glitches started. The music plays fine, and Waze works perfectly, but when there is any kind of notification, when it ends, the music is muted. To continue with the music, I have to stop and play it again, then the music volume comes back. If there is another notification (when the music is "muted"), the music comes to be heard slightly, but as soon as the notification ends it goes back to mute. I know it is muted because if I let the song run, and it finishes it goes to the next song (HUD) but it is still not heard.
I have looked to see if this problem was solved in any forum and only found these two:

I'm having a similar issue. Every notification pauses spotify. I know it is paused because the icon of the button changes from pause to play. I have to hit the play button to reproduce the music again. This really bothers me. If you fix it please let us know.

I have found a solution for my case. I have bought a Chinese android head unit and using Android Auto by cable through Zlink. Every notification from the system pauses Spotify. When I turned off Bluetooth, the issue has disappeared. I have no idea why, but it seems that, in my case, since Android Auto works by cable, all the instructions are made by cable, so if Bluetooth is turned on, it was like all the instructions were duplicate, one by cable and another by Bluetooth, like a notification lowering the volume twice, which is equivalent to a pause, I don't know. The thing is, if Bluetooth is not connected, everything works just fine with Android Auto, no pause of music by any notification or Waze directions.
This started happening for me for CarPlay on zlink version:4.0.41.01 on ios15. it sometimes dips the music but majority of the time cuts it out. disabling Bluetooth didn’t help. Does anyone have a fix?

A month ago, I bought a stereo with Android 11 that has Zlink 5.2.2 installed, and I used it so far with an iPhone 8 until I get the Android phone I had just bought. Everything was fine with Carplay, I used Waze and Youtube Music simultaneously and had no problems.
Once I connected my Android phone (Oneplus 9 Pro) to the stereo with Android Auto wireless, the glitches started. The music plays fine, and Waze works perfectly, but when there is any kind of notification, when it ends, the music is muted. To continue with the music, I have to stop and play it again, then the music volume comes back. If there is another notification (when the music is "muted"), the music comes to be heard slightly, but as soon as the notification ends it goes back to mute. I know it is muted because if I let the song run, and it finishes it goes to the next song (HUD) but it is still not heard.
I have looked to see if this problem was solved in any forum and only found these two:

I make a specific article for this issue because these two answers are in an article that is not specific to this problem.
If anyone can provide a solution to this issue, I would greatly appreciate it.
Data:
- Android 11 (stereo and mobile)
- Zlink 5.2.2
- Android Auto 7.4.120744-release.daily
If you need more data, let me know. I'm new with this app, so bear with me.
