Is there someone who could test the compatibility of the P20 Pro extensively with Android Auto? I suspect the general incompatibility (waze, Google music, in call screen,...) of the Mate 10 Pro is still not solved and till now not one review pays attention to this glaring issue. Curious if Huawei has solved this problem with this new phone.

Interesting. I'll listen here before buying, because I use Android Auto quite a bit, so if it doesn't work it's a no go for me.
Unfortunately the first feedback reports the same incompatibility as with the Mate 10 Pro.

I'm having issues connecting the phone to the head unit now with the android 8.1. It is telling me that there is a error code of communication error 6
This is diabolical, for such a basic functionality!!!
I am awaiting delivery of my P20 Pro, and was literally 5 minutes away from ordering an Android Auto headunit!
You have just saved me a lot of money... thanks!
Hopefully more people on here will be able to test.
For me, the only thing that doesn't work is Play Music. The progress bar moves but there's no sound. BBC iPlayer Radio and TuneIn Radio both work fine. No problems with Maps and phone.
It's poor at best, if you get it working leave it and don't touch anything.
Had a trip in partners Ford Focus - Sync 3 head unit, works fine with Pixel 2XL/XZ1 Compact but this just either didn't want to play anything or when attempting to read a message would give the error "voice commands not available at the moment" same when attempting to use voice commands as well. Once I did get it playing music and maps I just left it as I didn't want to break anything but still no voice commands available.
Looks like Google will be making Android Auto fully compatible with the P20 Pro. Looks like our phone is a big enough launch from Huawei to attract attention from them.

I'm using a P20 Pro. I have been using android auto in my golf now and everything seems to work fine. The only issues I am having are that I can make calls, but I can't see the phone call on the screen which means I have to use the steering wheel to hangup. When someone rings me I can't see it on my. Infotainment screen. Also can't see all of my contacts. Only my most recent. Hopefully there is a fix coming for this

Just received my P20 Pro yesterday, and just like my all previous Huawei phones (P9, P10, Mate 10 Pro) - it works with AA fine enough (only issue - call screen is not being shown).
It's barely usable...
Well it's my first Huawei phone (coming from an S8) and I'm a big fan of AA probably because of Waze...
Here are my remarks:
- Google Maps works from time to time
- Waze doesn't work at all, I have a black screen
- and for the audio it's impossible to switch between the apps and there's no audio
So unless you're using Google Maps extensively, I don't see why you'd use the P20 Pro with AA.
For those who are thinking how it was with an S8, well it was kind of a all or nothing experience. I've had periods where the phone wouldn't connect to AA and suddenly start working again.
I have also noticed that the cable quality is very important.
Android auto working fine for me. Only issue is the phone charges very slowly when connected. My one plus used to charge much quicker when connected to car head unit
Hello I've P20 and vw sportvan, no map (waze or Google maps)... I've black screen. No sound when I want to use Google music... I hope Huawei make something to solve this....
I have AA in a Pioneer headunit, working with a P20 Pro, I get audio issues with Google Play Music, waze works fine...
Got a P20 Pro and Android auto is working perfect in my Volkswagen Passat GTE. Been using it daily and everything works fine for me including Waze and Spotify

Doesnt Work
Pioneer X8800BT headunit worked flawlessly with Sony Xperia Z5 Premium so it's not the headunit.
Waze worked for a hour or so with audio then this became a black screen. Google play music "plays" but no sound comes out. In the end I had to unplug the phone from headunit (which I paid good money for) and use the unit as a dumb bluetooth speaker while using Waze directly off the phone...
I think I'll be returning it and getting a Pixel 2 XL unless someone can give me hope that there is work being done to solve this? I don't want to root it just yet because my credit card / banking apps stop working.
Shame as it's an otherwise excellent phone - but this is a deal breaker for me.
From my point of view is essential to have a quality USB cable. Everything (Waze, Google maps, call screen) works seemly with original cable delivered with charger. With another cable work call screen only, Waze and Google maps shows black screen. With cheap USB cabel my mobil phone (Huawei P20 PRO) doesnt connect to car (Hyundai i30 2018).
yesterday an AA update hit the play store. anyone tried after that?

Yes, no substantial changes...
After one minute connected (sometimes a few seconds) Android Auto crashes, starts again, connect, disconnect and so on. I have to disconnect because it keeps the loop forever. I have tried factory reset, USB debug enabled and some other suggestions from the web, nothing works. Galaxy S8 in the same car works fine. Galaxy S10 in a Buick Envision works fine too so it seems to be the combination of phone and car.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Had the same problem in my Mitsubishi outlander, after disabling bixby routines everything was fine
Also heard Night mode can cause this,

Same issue with my Land Rover Discovery Sport. Definitely some sort of incompatibility issue but is it problem with S10 or Land Rover? I'll never know because the phone has been returned for refund.
Just want to say however that the S10 connected fine with my wife's Mini Countryman and my daughter's VW Polo.
Have you find and answer, I have the same problem with my Peugeot 3008?

No answer so far. I gave away the S10 and now I use an S8 which works as expected.

Hello. I have a problem. I have an S7, Oneplus 3t with carteam enabled (the car is skoda Octavia 3 with bolero mib 2). The problem is that the image on youtube is lagging and on video player as well. What I am doing wrong? On an J3 2016 with 720p screen all works much better but not perfect. On my iphone se with carplay and carbrige all works like butter the best, but with carplay I can't use 2 phones at once but with android auto we can. My primiry phone is an OnePlus 7 Pro and I don't want to switch to iphone. Please help me.
P.S. I think is a codec problem I don't know.
please help me
I find out that on my j3 2016 all works ok , but with my s7 does not. the 2 phones has lineageos 14.1 , latest andoid auto and carstream 2.0.2 fork. what to do to work ok on my s7 phone?
I have the same problem with lagging Videos from Youtube and online streaming portals, by using carstream. I tried different things like clear cache from certain apps, all apps, enable/disable USB debugging, tried out different mediasystem with android auto (Opel, VW) -> nothing really helped. Sometimes it is better, sometimes its horrible. Unfortunately i have no possibility to try out another phone. So i dont know if it is a specific problem only on the Samsung S7 or it is a problem in general. I´m using stock android 8 on a samsung S7 Edge.
@cboghiu: Have you got a solution in the meantime?
The same situation in my case. Galaxy S7 and skoda suberb with Columbus radio. Additionaly carstream often didnt remember passwords to online web pages ex. Horizon go. Car stream keyboard doesnt have "@" button so is very difficult when login is a mail adress.
Could somebody fix IT?
Hello, i'm the owner of a new Galaxy Watch 5 PRO and i can't connect/pair it with my POCO F3.
I install the app Galaxy Wereable + Plugin Watch 5, the app finds the device, it starts to pair (displays the menu of login, terms, and so) but it stucks in a white screen where the 0-100% of linking should appears, the BT shows connection with the watch, and after a while, the watch and phone display a error message and sometimes the watch made a restoring default.
What i'm doing bad? How can i pair both?????
Thanks for your attention.
Auto-solved:
I have a MiWatch (chinese version) so i had Wear OS and Xiaomi Wear (both chinese version too), i've uninstall both and voilá, the 0-100% appears and i've just configure my Galaxy Watch.
I'll try to install again Wear OS and Xiaomi Wear because in my work could be better for damages still to use the MiWatch...
i have a galaxy watch 5 pro and since a few days mi 13 with cn software. i cant get it to connect. i get the code on phone and watch... then it ask for watch5 manager. and then i get, watch not supported on this phone?
