One device connects to Ford Sync 3 AA, but not another WiFi only device - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

I have a brand new 2017 Ford Raptor with Sync 3, version 3.0. I can easily connect my Samsung Note8 to it via Android Auto and it sees it immediately, connects just fine. If I unplug that device from the two USB connections, I try to connect another Android 7.0 Nougat device that is WiFi only to it, using a OBDII WiFi hotspot attached, and it connects to the internet just fine, but will not connect to the truck via Android Auto. The device is a DOOGEE BL5000, a Chinese Android device that does not have any US LTE bands, and I wanted to use a hotspot in the car to connect other devices to it on long trips anyways, so I paid $145 for an Android phone that I would use only with WiFi.
I've connected it with Bluetooth, done all the setup, and the screen shows BL5000 detected when plugging in, but absolutely will not connect to have THAT device use the Android Auto instead of my phone. My goal is to disable AA on the Note8 and have the BL5000 dedicated to AA duty while in the truck. I have tried FIVE different USB cables, two of which were factory Samsung cables, so they aren't the cheap ones, tried unplugging, plugging in, changing which USB connection type (charging / file transfer, PTP, etc), and nothing changes. The Note8 it set to just charging, so I can't imagine the setting is that important when it connects instantly. I have done a master reset on the Sync 3, had to start all over again with connections, trying the BL5000 again first without setting up the Note8, turning the truck on and off multiple times, it just won't connect.
It was said that Huawei devices for some reason won't connect to AA, don't know why or what the logic is behind that, but am I screwed with this DOOGEE BL5000? I wanted something with at least 4GB of RAM and wiping / disabling everything else but AA, Maps, Music off of it in order for it to work solely as a processor for AA that I can remove and replace, but this is becoming a headache all in and of itself.
Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hello
I'm in the UK experiencing the same problem with my new Doogee and Sync 3.
Did you get any where with this issue please
Thank you
Richard

Yes and no. The Doogee would never connect, so I was refunded the purchase on PayPal because this was all I needed the device for, the seller did not respond so I got to keep the device. I since purchased a Moto G4 unlocked and it connects perfectly, immediately, and put a SIM card in it to run directly from the device instead of through WiFi only, makes Android Auto boot time much faster this way. Hope that helps!

Thanks for your very prompt reply. Glad you managed to get a solution in the end.
I previously tried a Cubot Cheetah 2 with my car to no avail. What's interesting is that my old Samsung J5 works with AA. You'd think a phone with android 7.0 would work.
Thank you again

Connecting to Note 3 via bluetooth

I seem to have a problem connecting my new 10.5" tab s to my Verizon note 3 via bluetooth. It shows that they are paired but when I click connect it acts like it will connect for about 3 seconds (it says connecting...) then just goes back to saying paired. The dude at the Samsung display in Best Buy claimed these 2 devices simply cannot connect through bluetooth which didn't seem right. Tonights?
What I've tried so far: obviously restarting both devices and completely unpairing them as well to no avail...

It isn't right. I have a Note 3 also but with Sprint. I don't have any problem connecting. I would assume it is not the carrier that is causing the problem. It is well known that the Samsung reps at BB know absolutely nothing about their products. I also assume you tried shutting BT off on both devices then re-activating them? Is NFC on on your note? If it is try shutting that off as the slate is not NFC capable and it may be interfering. Just some suggestions.
I have a Note 3 as well from sprint and haven't had an issue connecting via bluetooth. I'll take a look around to see if anyone else is having this issue. Hopefully you'll be able to resolve it.
I did a factory wipe on my phone thinking that may help but was unsuccessful. Those of you who are able to connect your phone and tab, can you use the Internet connection from the phone using bt on the tab?
Update number 2...I factory wiped the tablet too and still no luck. It automatically wants to connect for Internet access and if I have the tab connectrd to WiFi it says it can't connect to bluetooth for tethering if WiFi is connected. Turning off WiFi does nothing...
I have the ATT Note 3 and am able to connect to my Tab S with Bluetooth. On both devices it only says paired. The only time it said connecting is when I initially paired the two devices, once paired the "connecting" was replaced by "paired". I can't find anywhere it says connected yet I am able to send files back and forth between the two via Bluetooth. I don't use Bluetooth to tether so not sure if that is where it's supposed to say connected. Sorry if we're talking about two different things, just trying to help.

Well I feel stupid now haha. I can't connect to use Bluetooth for an Internet connection as I was attempting, but I can send and receive files to and from the tab and phone.

[Q] Connection Issues

I am having problems keeping the watch connected to my phone. Android Wear will report it's connecting... then disconnect very quickly. It will repeat this cycle over and over. On the watch, it shows a little cloud icon with a slash thru it, pulling up Google Now reports the watch is disconnected.
My phone reports it is paired with the watch via bluetooth and the radio is turned on. I tried changing my wifi access to use my 5G radio instead of 2.4 but that didn't help. No other bluetooth devices are paired with my phone or with my watch. Phone is a Galaxy Note 2 running Android 4.4.2. Any suggestions that I can try?
I have this as well with my GS4.
are you having this issue when the phone is near you or like say across the house from you?
I got my watch yesterday.
Problem occured with out of the box firmware (4.4.4). I manage to reconnect and connect last enough to update to 5.0.2. ANd there I was hoping it will be good. But unfrontunately no. I still have the problem.
I have a galaxy note 4 (N910F) on Lollipop. I reset factory my phone and the watch. I have stil random disconnections. And when disconnected, It is hard to made the watch reconnect. Didn't have any problem with my LH watch R.
Kind of disappointed by the Moto 360 (a colleague with a one plus one and the same watch doesn't have such problems.
Really don't know mess things up.
What a burden to have to reset the watch each time we need to connect to a new mobile / reconnect to the current one.
They should have add an option to connect / disconnect

Compatible 3G/4G modems

Hello,
The modem that worked 100% of the time in KGL MTCB units, the Huawei E173u-2 doesn't work anymore.
The manufacturer sent us a list of modems that are - to say the least - very exotic in Europe.
Does anybody have a list of compatible modems? What modems do you guys use?
Do MTCD units support 4G/LTE modems or still only 3G?
Make use of an old phone, making wifi hotspot! - works best for me.
No need to buy slow sticks. Blackberry Q5 is very cheap - and LTE 4g wkan-hotspot is in.
Try the "chinese" umts stick for umts/wcdma that are sold within the headunits. these mostly are 7.2mb/s download. not statisfying, is it?
Yep, the UMTS stick is crap. I bought a Huawei E8372 LTE-WiFi-Stick. This one runs much better.
I tried a Huawei 3131H USB stick and it works fine (3G). The connection appears as a mobile 3g regular icon on the head unit. Sometimes the stick connects, but there's no visual feedback on the unit (still works).
Then I switched to a Huawei R216 (modem/wireless router with battery) with 4G, also works fine. The connection appears as "shared via cable" - 2 small overlapping computer icons. It also works seamlessly. You cannot connect the head unit to the modem wifi while connected via USB (makes sense and I don't know if there's any setting to switch from shared cable connection to wifi)
Hotspot with internet connection (from various phones) - works without a hitch and you can do it with an older phone connected to the USB for power, I tried with an old Samsung S3 Mini and it worked.
The Vodafone tech guys said that their stick modems may not be compatible with my setup, because they had people returning them after tying to connect them to tablets via cable. I suspect that's the case for the headunit too, so I didn't risk it - Vodafone Mobile K4607-Z (from ZTE) and Vodafone Connect USB Speed 6 4G (Huawei I think) are the ones in question.
Hope this helps.

Surely this has nothing to do with MCU version and is dependent on the ROM?
Zubie
I bought a Zubie. It plugs in to the OBD2 port and provides wifi to the car through my Verizon account.
In order to still use a bluetooth OBD2 adapter simultaneously, I bought an OBD2 splitter cable off amazon.
I love this setup.
DOES NOT WORK:Telstra Pre-Paid MF823 4G USB (ZTE MF823) (Unlocked via ebay code)
Only works if when initially plugged in, does not work when resumed from standby or swapped from wifi: HUAWEI E122
Also, There is a big difference for applications activity between a "Cellular" data connection and a WIFI connection (Tethered/hotspot). EG. Spotify set to only download on WIFI connection cannot differentiate between your home WIFI connection and a hotspot or Play Store set to update on WIFI only. This can become costly if you're on a small data plan.
Huawei e3372 (4G/LTE) works perfect when updated the MCU (MTCD_KDV1.82_1 Aug 26).
Initially I've tried with MTCD_KDV1.52_1 May 4, but didn't work.
but nevertheless, there's not 3G or LTE icon signal, there's a Network icon (two computers like MsWindows icon) like if it was an ethernet connection.
I've tested and it works at LTE speed. Cool! :good::good:
Only there's only one problem: This network connection is preferent over WiFi, so, to connect to a Wifi Nework i've to unplug the USB dongle. It's impossible to connect to a WiFi when the dongle is connected.
Joying posted a new 4G dongle, but looks like it works more as a wifi hotspot:

I've actually got the R216 and I can't make it connect via USB at all - just using the wifi connection.
Could I ask what MCU you are running and roughly where you see it in the network settings?
Thanks!

hey, I have the R216 from Vodafone Romania and I just plugged it in in one of the 3 USB ports with a microSD cable (works on any of them, with no special settings) and threw it in the glove box. My unit is a HotAudio MTCD 5.1. As for the MCU, it worked with both the default one from May, and with the updated one from this forum (June, I think). Can't exactly recall the versions, 1.53 and 1.63 I think. The modem works with both cable sharing and hotspot simultaneously. The unit takes the cable connection as a priority from the modem (you can not plug it in the USB, but choose the Wifi from the same device). I also found out that in some ROMs, the cable net speed is vastly superior to the wifi one

Awesome - thanks heaps!
I have Vodafone Australia version, so probably similar. I think I have one of those MCUs and I'm using the June version of @Malaysk's great software.
Will have to check things out further - my unit has this thing where only one of the usb ports is assigned to be used with the modem, and I can't remember which one I plugged my usb webcam into.
Thanks again for responding.

In my unit's printed schematics & cables, the single shorter one is designated for modems (and has a separate port in the back of the unit). I just plugged the modem in the other 2 for curiosity. For HotAudio MTCD i think there are only 2 MCUs anyway, I couldn't find more. ROMs don't seem to matter, I went through 2 factory versions, 2 Malaysk versions and now I use a Xtrons one,no issues. If you can't get it to work, it may be the modem's firmware to blame.
Silly question, what do you guys use for the SIM card? Surely you don't pop it out of your phone and install it in the modem every time you go for a drive?

MZP will not connect to my Chromebook via bluetooth

I'm trying to get my MZP to connect to my chromebook via bluetooth so I can use the SMARTLOCK feature. This allows you to login into the chromebook without having to type-in a password if your phone is beside you (and bluetooth is turned on). When I go through the steps it says MotoZ failed to connect.
I've connected my phone to other bluetooth devices and it worked fine. I've also connected my chromebook to my old MotoX and it worked. Therefore, I know their respective bluetooth works. But they don't seem to work together.
Anybody run into this issue?
V20 won't connect to Chromebook Plus (Samsung)

I don't know if it my Chromebook or phone?

Note 10+ and Android Auto Issues

This issue has been logged numerous times on Google Forums - but I wanted to check in with people here. I have the new Note 10+ 5G and having serious issues keeping Android Auto running with my Pioneer Head Unit (please note, I have had NO issues with other Android Phones - OnePlus 7 Pro, Google Pixel 3XL, Sony Xperia 1).
Basically, when connecting the Note 10+, Android Auto worked fine for the first session, then crashed on the second, and since simply won't connect until the phone does a full reboot (then will only work once and run into the same issues). At first I thought DEX was interfering (which it probably is!) but unfortunately there is no way to disable DEX apps or the USB response when plugging in an external connection.
Have others had this issue? Any ideas??
Thanks!

No issues here in both of my cars
This is not note 10 this is general issues with any not stock google android and android auto. Are you trying to use wireless or usb AA? They just got wireless working with non google devices, but it's very random when it works. I've had the issue you describe(having to reboot) with wireless, USB is far more reliable.

Thanks so much for your reply. I'm using a direct cable plugged into the Pioneer Head Unit. I have not had this issue with any other handset - and I suspect it may have something to do with DEX. Any other thoughts you may have?
I use it daily on my F150 and I'm not having any issues at all, working perfectly fine. You can try reinstalling the app if you haven't done that already.

Yeah, sorry to hear that. I have a Kenwood DDX9906XR and it does wireless android auto. I have a Google Pixel 3 XL and the Note 10+. I've been able to get wireless android auto working (as well as wired) with NO issues at all. I do think the wireless option is a bit overrated and even sometimes annoying as it doesn't connect as fast as using wired. I just love that Samsung phones are one of the only few left that still use miracast so I get to use the wireless display function in my car.
I have had issue with Waze showing correctly but sometimes when switch to music music plays on screen but not audio. Have to unplu and replug..I did see new apk yesterday so will try it.
My Note 10+(4G model) is having AA issues..
Whenever I plug mine into the Focus RS(SYNC 3) it crashes at 1st use and the Note thinks I am using DEX for PC and to turn it on.
I have tried different cables including Sammy one . and reset the phone to a clean install no joy
I also had an issue with note 10+ connected to my Kenwood Excelon DDX9905S, pandora and spotify - no audio to kenwood would play. I see today there are play store updates for both, perhaps a fix.
on my car, i have to plug in the phone to the car first BEFORE starting the engine. otherwise i get no audio.

I've experienced many issues with AA with a spectrum of devices. I firsts believed that my vehicle was to blame, due to the technology differences, however I've realized that my Buick Encore Preferred II (ALL STOCK EQUIPMENT IN VEHICLE) immediately broadcasts it's Bluetooth/Wifi-Direct as soon as the head-unit/radio is supplied power. I've concluded that MY issues with android auto came from the app recognizing device movement while I was driving.
Now, I'm no expert, but here's my suggestion.
1. Ensure the USB-C cable supports data-transfer and charging simultaneously. (I've made this mistake by ordering USB-C cables ((that only supported charging....poorly)) )
2. Restore Android Auto's factory settings that came with the phone, ensure any Android Auto data-backups are deleted (for troubleshooting purposes).
3. Install/Update via Play store.
4. Disable bluetooth & "forget" any paired vehicles/head-units on your phone.
5. Remove your phone from your vehicle's bluetooth memory.
At this point, your phone should be plugged in to your COMPATIBLE head-unit***, with neither devices recognizing each other.
6. Start your vehicle's battery/engine & stay stationary.
Your phone may immediately start Android Auto. Some head-units automatically do this for you as a "safety/handsfree" feature.
If Android Auto doesn't automatically initiate when you power your head-unit, run the application.
7. Follow your phone's on-screen prompts to finalize set-up.
8. Ensure your phone is connected to your vehicle's bluetooth.
Worked for me!
Remember, if it's not broken, don't fix it.

Same issue here. Worked like a charm with Mate 10 Pro, crashed with my new Note 10 + after a few seconds. Solved it by going through all my USB cables and somehow I found one that worked! (tried 5 different cables). Only a one out of 5 works. My Mate worked with all of them.
Btw: this is the one that worked

If you want to disable dex, i've finally found an app to take the place of Samsung package disabler. . It's called CCSWE. I bought the pro license for $2.99. Samsung package disabler from android police worked great when it worked, but they kept losing your license info and have to re-purchase. Since s10+ i haven't got it to work, says something about failed registration or no license.. something to that effect. Developer is not answering any questions.
I had AA running fine on a Note 8 and an S9. On the Note 10+ it kept disconnecting after a couple of seconds. At the end I have it stable, but I had to modify all battery savings options for this app. I did not disable DeX. When I connect the Note 10 to the head unit (USB), I do get the DeX notification but that does not interfere with the connection anymore.
What I do find annoying is that I have the light and dark mode switched based on day and night time. I noticed that the mode follows the day and night mode of my head unit when connected. However, after disconnecting, the original setting (where it switches based on planned schedule on the phone itself) is no longer activated. I like the detail though, that the phone follows the car scene.
Note 10+ Android Auto on 2017 Ford F150 with SYNC 3 Version 3.0
Android Auto on 2017 Ford F150 with SYNC 3 Version 3.0 worked fine with a Samsung Note 8.
Phone was upgraded to Note 10+ and Android Auto connects and works for a few seconds and then does not work and SYNC 3 reverts back to standard Ford SYNC 3 screen.
Android Auto still works fine with same USB cable and Note 8 in either USB port in truck on SYNC 3.

I can confirm that in my case I have turned off optimized power and set the phone to maximum performance. I have tried every setting for power and have not had any luck in my case on my Note 10+ phone.
I can confirm that in my case I have run through all of the USB debugging ON/OFF scenarios as well as matching every setting that is on the Note 8 that continues to work with AA and SYNC 3. I have tried every setting and have not had any luck in my case on my Note 10+ phone. I have switched USB cables using everything from Samsung to Anker one-foot to three-foot. All of these cables continue to work with the Note 8 on Android Auto, SYNC 3.
My assumption is this is a new ore revised USB security or access setting embedded somewhere I am unable to locate in the Note 10+ settings/software.
I also tried disabling DEX as that is something new that notifies when connecting USB on the Note 10+ and I figured it might be a conflict with other USB connectivity. No luck there either.
My Note 8 continues to work fine. I am even able to run a Hotspot on the Note 10 + feeding the Note 8 via Wi-Fi connected directly to the USB in the vehicle and that works.
Nothing works on the Note 10+ directly connected to the vehicle via USB with Android Auto and it sounds like it was a problem with the Note 9 and other phones also.
It's frustrating how everything could change so drastically with a new phone release.
I just want Android Auto to work on my new $1100.00 SAMSUNG FLAGSHIP PHONE Note 10+ like it did with my previous SAMSUNG FLAGSHIP PHONE Note 8 ...
Based on all of the previous posts, it appears to be a big problem and I'm sure the others posting have not found resolution, unless they are just not following up with a post.
FYI, Andoid Auto works perfectly on my Note 10 + (and it also worked on my previous Note 8). Using wired set up to 2017 GMC. (And it did work when Dex was on my phone, and it also works now with Dex disabled.)
Thanks
Thanks for responding. Might be a Ford SYNC 3 thing as that appears to be the difference.

FYI, Andoid Auto works perfectly on my Note 10 + (and it also worked on my previous Note 8). Using wired set up to 2017 GMC. (And it did work when Dex was on my phone, and it also works now with Dex disabled.)

I believe (I could be wrong) FORD SYNC 3 is Microsoft (back end).
I had no issues on the S10+ so I can't blame One UI . Tried power settings tried to change USB settings (won't let me when connected to the head unit)
Will try power settings next
My AA works with my Chevy Redline no issues
