I use Android Auto on my 2022 platinum. ARC is on my cell phone so naturally ARC is offered up on the trucks screen.
When I select ARC from the truck screen I always have control of ARC. Audio plays but occasionally I don’t get art work or album art or anything video like recommended albums photos. This problem comes and goes.
I get all artwork and graphics on my phone in ARC but not on my Android Autos screen Sometimes.
What’s the mechanics of ARC audio and graphics from phone to truck?
Working connection to my Android phone. No buffering. I’m connecting to my sync 4 in truck.
When I’m running core app from the truck occasional music cut outs. Sometimes core just shuts off playing and I have to go to my phone and start playback to get it to play. Playing music directly to phone I have no problems. It’s when connecting to truck is the problem.
I have gig speed on home network up and down.
I have 500mb up and down on phone.
I also get buffering to truck when I’m in my home’s wifi in driveway. My phone speed is 700mb on wifi.
Trying to isolate.
On top of buffering occasionally I don’t get album art or graphics on truck but I do with the phone. The art and graphics do show up after some time.
What is the connection between my phone and Android Auto? Is it a combination of wifi and Bluetooth?
I try to run AA wired but that connection wont work. Just trying to see if my problem is the connection between phone and AA.
Different topic … I want to put a full time phone in truck to run AA. I want to use the hugh speed modem teathered. I know that will require wifi. But I also need wifi from phone to AA. Will doing a wired connection solve the wifi problem? That is if I can get a wired connection.
