My kamiq is demanding I do an update but I'm reluctant as I've not disconnected for a good week now!

I've not done the recent update the car wanted to do but my phone did an update last week and (touch wood), my phone hasn't disconnected in several days. WhatsApp messages still don't ping up unless I'm on the Android page and unless I select "new" msg on the WhatsApp page then request a msg sent to whomever, it tells me it can't find a number for that person. But apart from that, having no issues......... Watch this space!

I have S22+ and I don't see why I should buy a new phone just to avoid this! Chances are the bug will follow to newer models anyway.

Haven't we all done this in various guises and it works temporarily and then starts playing up again?

OK so I've no idea what's happened in the last few days but my now phone won't connect to my kamiq either by USB (unable to connect), or by Android auto. It'll charge and that's it. Can anyone advise please?

My phone now won't connect with the cable ffs.

It's 100% not the Bluetooth as I turned my Android Auto off on my phone and while I now can't use spotify or the steering wheel button, I had a lovely long conversation with my OH sitting on my drive waiting to be disconnected but wasn't. Not once did it disconnect driving to work either. So... It's a choice between phone or spotify/ text dictating for me!

Oh.... And my phone disconnects even if it's with the cable so it's not the Bluetooth, deffo the Android Auto (which I've also reinstalled on my phone) Like another poster, if the call is cut off and reconnects, my phone doesn't and I just hear voices in my handbag!

Hi all, I too am having these issues and stumbled upon this discussion back in April when I started having the same problems too (pretty much to the day you guys did). I've also tried everything from taking the car to the garage - they kept it for 4 days and on the basis their Samsung phone didn't disconnect, my car was deemed to be fine but 5 mins down the road my car was up to its old tricks with my phone. -I've reset the Android on my phone.. - I've done a factory reset of the cars settings.. - I've connected them with the cable first.. Nothing works. My Android moto company doesn't play up and my phone works fine in other cars (Skoda was trying to tell me it's my phone) I was on the phone to Skoda HQ yday about this and told them to look at this page and they said the only other thing i can try is to factory reset my phone which I'm loathe to do and don't see why I should! I phoned Samsung who said they're aware of the problem and that the car companies cannot keep up to date with the phone companies software. In the meantime, I can't use spotify either because it jumps like a scratched LP when my phone is connected and the flashing message is so distracting! WhatsApp is playing up too and claiming not to be able to find people but I'm not sure if that's related. I'm at a real loss! Apart from buying a new phone/ car I'm stuck with this problem. If anyone has struck gold with a remedy, please share!
