Does anyone else's unit crash (freeze, not reboot), when you get multiple notifications or provide it with successive inputs (e.g. hitting next track a few times) using Android Auto? Mine does occasionally, I can live with it if it's a general issue either with the unit or AA (I think AA is a bit flaky in general) ... but wondered if it was just me!?
Mine froze up once on the first day when I pressed menu a few times in succession, but has been perfect since (wireless AA). I found you should limit the apps you open, I think I had Amigo, Google Maps, Waze, Spotify and YT music all running at the time.
 
Hey,

I am planning to buy an ENG Custom unit.
I have a few questions:

- When using wired AA, does it charge the phone through the USB?

-when using wired ACP, does it charge the phone through the USB?

-Is anyone using wireless AA successfully with a Samsung S9 phone, running Android 10? Does it get hot or laggy?

If you could help me with any of these questions, I would really appreciate the help.
I'll help where I can:

1. Yes, it charges but veeeery slowly.
2. I don't have iPhone so can't feedback sorry
3. I use wireless AA with a Note 10+ and it's seamless (running Android 11 now, but was working well with Android 10 before it updated). It doesn't get hot, and discharges approx. 15% per hour when using spotify and waze wirelessly. To top up, I have plugged into the centre console cigarrette port a Baseus 45W 6A dual USB charger which is provides a massive boost to the phone battery if needed in a short time, much more effective than USB charging, highly recommended.
 
Motorised boot anybody?!?!

I was upset when I discovered my rear boot mat added 1kg of weight to my QV, not interested in adding several more kg's :LOL:
