I searched but couldn't find an answer anywhere. Galaxy s10 when hooked up to android auto will not get any text notifications. It worked fine months ago, I have tried re-installing android auto and a bunch of other things.

My phone, no matter the volume level will also not give any indication of a text message recieved when plugged in. A notice does come up on the phone screen though, so I have to check every time after a drive. Spotify seems to be working o.k.

I'm sure I went through all the settings and permissions. Anyone else have this problem? Anyone try a cardongle yet or other device to give the infotainment screen full android powers and wireless control? Other than that $700 mod i've seen

If you open up Android Auto on your phone, without it being hooked up to your truck, you can check/change the settings in the app for notifications.

In Android Auto settings, make sure bluetooth is enabled when android auto is running.

 

I had a problem where, when connected via cord to Android Auto, I would only get text notifications on the Android Auto display but not the gauge cluster since that is linked with bluetooth.  After changing this setting, I get notifications in BOTH areas if plugged in.

Last year a guy with a 2019 Ford F150 said that he never used Android Auto because then it disabled his bluetooth calling.  I told him to modify the settings just the same, and he said it worked for him as well!

I have a base, so no notifications in the gauge cluster anyway. I get zero notifications on the android auto display and my phone is also muted when plugged in. The truck goes in for recalls next Tuesday and i will have them take a look. I am almost certain it is my phone though and not the truck.

PS, is your android auto updated to the latest version?  Apparently an update from September seems to have created the problem you are experiencing.  Unless it's another issue!

Hmm interesting, my phone does auto-update. I am also on android 11 now, which i think may have been in and around the time i started having troubles. With android 11 android auto is now "built in"

I am not sure how I can install an older version to try. Any ideas?

I think the issue was fixed.  If you are on the latest version you should be OK.  I would go into "my apps" in google play store just to confirm that everything is updated.

If everything is updated then issue must lie somewhere else.

So i didn't get to trying a second phone as i made a recall appointment and the dealer said they would have a look at that time. Anyway after the dealership visit (they said they updated the infotainment system) get in my truck and the system wont connect to my phone at all. I go back in and they say its my cord. Anyway instead of listening to more BS and arguing. I leave and try 3 different cables and 2 phones and absolutely nothing. Truck goes back next week.

      Feeling Vibration and Jiggles in 2024 HD Gasser Steering Wheel

      By Policeoff01 · Posted

      Curious, did anyone ever get a fix for the vibration reported here.   I have a 2024 Silverado with 6.6 duramax.   I’m noting the same vibration resonating up through the steering shaft into the steering wheel.    Best way to describe- like someone is tapping on the steering shaft/components and it’s resonating into the steering wheel.    thanks.

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.
