Allwinner T3 P1 not recognzing iPhone for CarPlay - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys, I updated my Allwinner T3 P1 last week through Android check for updates without installing custom ROM or anything like that, just a regular update.
It turns out that since then my app that I used for Android Auto and CarPlay, which is called TLINK, simply stopped recognizing the iPhone. (Android continues normally). The iPhone connects normally, even charging works normally, but the app fails to recognize it and displays "fails to link, try another usb port". I've tried other ports, cables, apps, even other iPhones and nothing happens.
I did a factory reset and still nothing.
After factory reset, bluetooth also stopped working, now I can't search for bluetooths devices anymore, I also tried go to extra settings > config info > {tick BC7, untick BC6 and BC8} but still, I continue without bluetooth and without CarPlay.
I downloaded a ROM and put it on the pendrive to really try to format the device, but it happens that when I go to car settings > system update nothing happens, as if the option had no action, I pressed multiple times and still does not work.
Can anyone help me with this?

USB does not recognize my phones

I have a MTCD head unit MX (witson) with Android 5.1, my problem is that the USB port cannot recognize my phones, A note 4 with Android 6.0 (eRobot ROM) and a Samsung GT386T no rooted with stock ROM 4.4.2. The USB port works find with a usb stick, I can play music, pictures, etc. but not my phones. Both have the USB debugging enable.
When I plug a phone it is charging but nothing happens, my note 4 after a few minutes pop a windows saying that there is a problem with the connection MTP and that I need to download samsung Sync etc.
What I want to do is to use the mirror link function.
Any of you know something about this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.

I believe i read that there is a specific app that you have to run on these to do the mirror link...easy connect, maybe? Did your HU come with an instruction booklet? I was looking through mine earlier and it went over in detail how to setup mirroring through that app.
Yes, when I tried to use EasyConnected is when I saw the problem. The app waits for my phone to be connected, It says that it must be turned on USB debugging, but it is on. Then I checked in the File manager and the USB was not enable there, like if nothing is plug it. If I plug a USB memory it works fine.
I will try today to do a factory reset.
Thank you!

You ever get this solved? My easyconnected never stays connected. WiFi and USB both are garbage.
WiFi randomly disconnects.
USB also disconnects asks me to allow USB debugging every couple of minutes. The phone never remembers the headunit, so it constantly asks me again to allow connection. Must be a crap RSA fingerprint coming from the headunit.

Nope, Still does not work for me. Same symptoms as you. I already tried with 3 differents phones, factory reset and different versions of easyconnected.
I seem to have USB connection working now with only one "allow USB Debugging?" popup, only when I first connect.
What I did was turn wifi off on the headunit. I am not sure why it worked, but I just wanted to turn everything not needed off, and see if the headunit would stop disconnecting all the time. So far so good. I can probably live with one annoying popup, instead of one every few minutes.
Of course you have to keep the screen on the phone on, and the battery in the phone will deplete faster than the headunit charges it, but still an improvement. I had a 30 minute drive today, and the USB never disconnected!

paniqueado, try the da_anton ROM. I just installed it and easyconnect finally works as it should. I just plug in my phone to the USB and it fires right up! One prompt if any on the head unit, and NO disconnects whatsoever.

Android Auto

Hi,
Did somebody try to use an android auto function? My car (Peugeot 308SW 2018) and the phone not connecting with latest (8.1.0) android version. I tried to enable an USB debugging (as workaround recommendation), but nothing changed...
Have you other idea or working solution?
thx!

Yes, it works perfectly in my mid 2017 Kia Cee'd SW. Check if you have android auto enabled(i have the option to disable it and the apple car play). Also, the usb cable is working properly when connecting to a pc?
At the car side is enabled, at phone side i didnt found any additional options...
The best result was the android auto icon at phone appears and disappears continously with 2-3 different cables.
Is it possible the car head unit firmware not compatible with N7P latest SW version?

Doubt it. The car is from this year, it seems unlikely(to me) that the firmware wasn't up to date.
Stupid question, you have the android auto app installed on the phone right? Android has a Car Mode but to use android auto you need to install the app 1st(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.projection.gearhead&hl=en). If the link says that you have no compatible device, download the latest version from here(https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/)
For almost a year I thought my head-unit wasn't up to date as the android auto would freeze, the app would say that the head-unit wasn't up to date, waze would display random artefacts, etc.
Now with the N7p it is butter smooth, no funky stuff and way more responsive that when I was trying to use it with my Redmi 4 Prime(same cable but with a micro-b to usb c adapter)...
No issues with AA in Seat Ateca 2018.
Everything works like a charm.
For phonecalls, you need to select default sim first, otherwise the call hangs on a sim selection prompt on the phone.
I write to nokia support and they send:
- clear the bluetooth cache
- do a soft reset

You found here, how to clear: http://support.hereplus.me/hc/en-us/articles/115003497328-Clearing-your-Bluetooth-Cache-Android-/
Do you install android auto app on your smartphone ? some lands doesn't have android auto on the play store, so you need to download manually on apk mirror web site (arm64 version)
A good quality cable is also needed.
I'm having similar issues.
This phone won't work in both my VW cars.
If I clear all settings it works fine.
I get to my destination, unplug and then when I head out on my next trip it doesn't. Just a blank screen on the head unit and the phone has the green screen saying launch Android Auto on the head unit.
Tried the BT cache clearing as above. Will try a factory reset of the phone shortly too otherwise wait for pie and if still no go then sell the phone which I will miss
Though can't work without Android Auto now
It is definitely problem with Nokia 7 plus. In my car it connect and after few minutes black screen and solution is only disconnect and connect again.

I've found the bluetooth with my N7P poor anyway. This is my second one and the same as the first.
All HMD will do is send you a list of the bluetooth protocols they support.
So you may need to change your car ?
My 7+ works perfectly now.
Enable USB debugging and disable the extreme power saving settings.

MCTE_MX, resetting to factory still keep some settings, carplay/android not working

Hi guys,
I've got an Astra J with a MTCE-MX headunit installed and I'm having some issues with the carplay adapter as I'm now getting a grey screen every time the phone is connected, it also happens to Android with android Auto. It used to work fine, but as I was playing with some settings and trying to configure the head unit properly it eventually started doing this grey screen and never came back. I've reset the device to factory using the menus, which wiped all user data but it seems it keep some car settings and I cannot reset those to factory. I found a factory reset option under vehicle settings which goes into some hidden configuration screen where I can choose car logo and some other bits, after that it restarts but it doesn't reset the settings to factory.
I'm wondering what can I do here? I'm suspecting my USB cable inside the dash may have gone faulty, but then I should not have both iphone and android detecting carplay/androidauto fine I guess?

Android auto

HI,
i tried my Nord on my Opel and Android Auto not work.
My old 5t, wiht Android 10 work well!
Why?
Only mine?
Think so, in my megane works like a charm
Nope i am having problems as well. There seem to be lots of problems with OP, for a long time
(I am also having problems with bluetooth and Ford Sync3)

I set USB to file transfer but it immediately switches to 'No data transfer' and AA crashes
As for the solutions suggested in the above threads
I tried disabling battery optimization for AA
I tried to delete working profile / parallel apps, but there was none
I tried removing data access restrictions
I tried using USB mode MIDI, and only this seems to work for now...
For whatever reason, Android Auto would not launch on the car side until I set the USB mode to MIDI on the phone. I know, this seems to make absolutely no sense, but I tried it twice to test the theory and indeed it solves the problem in my case.
I'm not even sure where the USB setting is found, but if one searches the Settings panel, it appears as "USB Preferences".
Strangely enough, when I select MIDI and Android Auto launches, the radio button selection changes automatically to "No data transfer" and cannot be changed while connected.
In any case, I found this solution to be unexpected and strange and thought it to be worth sharing. I was ready to give up!

Bluetooth: "couldn't connect" to Win10

Hi. In the last couple of days, I used "Bluetooth Audio Receiver" from the Microsoft store to be able to play back music from my S20 FE android 11 device at work. I often step away from my work desk with my phone in my pocket, but yesterday I wasn't able to reconnect my phone via Bluetooth when I came back. Since then I can't connect to my work and my personal PC anymore, even tho I didn't even connect to my personal PC for a while.
I'm able to unpair and pair with said Windows 10 machines, but as soon as I tap the entry in the Bluetooth menu, it says "couldn't connect". I already tried to use the reset for wifi/Mobil/Bluetooth within the android setting, but it didn't change anything.
Restarted my phone and both PCs multiple times. It feels like something in my phone hang itself. I'm still able to send files from my PC to my phone and vice versa. I'm still able to fully use my smartwatch and Bluetooth headset.
Is there anything I can do? Any ideas?
PS: My phone is rooted.
Edit1: I just deleted cache and data of the Bluetooth app and did another reset of my network settings. I now can't pair with Windows 10 anymore. It says "couldn't connect" after the pairing dialog. My Win10 Device recognizes my Android device as paired. Which means I can't even send or receive files at my phone from my Windows 10 devices.
Edit2: My headset was still paired. Is there a way to reset saved pairing and data related to that?
Edit3: I don't know why I couldn't pair with my Windows device anymore, but it works again (Didn't do anything). Still can't connect to it, but can send files again.
TLDR:
Android 11 S20 FE can't connect to multiple Windows devices anymore with the massage: "can't connect".
UnPairing and pairing again won't help
Restarting effected devices won't help.
Resetting network settings won't help.
Nobody has an idea what it could have triggered it or what I could try to do?
Any idea is much appreciated.
