Hi folks

Been through steps of enabling android auto on me Octavia MK3 with infotainment part number 500 035 874 A (2x SD cards, usb + aux in + nav)

I've successfully updated from 0250 -> 0253 after reading lots of posts on here (now running MST2_EU_SK_ZR_P0253T) and then done the following:

1. Mib2 std toolbox deployed and GEM enabled. Ran the patch.

2. Set bits 6-7 of byte 19 of coding of 5F to 11 (already set)

3. Enable adaptations in 5F:

ENG109862-ENG130249-Vehicle_configuration-Apple_DIO,active

ENG109862-ENG130248-Vehicle_configuration-Google_GAL,active

Also xor'd the new update value and cleared the b201a error with vcds.

I'm not sure I want to mess around with any later versions unless I'm missing something amazing. Android auto/apple car play appears under smart link but I can't get my phone (pixel) to connect with a usb cable that a laptop recognises the phone with.

I read on mib2 std toolbox git hub issues about:

"> USB port 5Q0035726E. Check USB port type in Toolbox>mib_info"

In mib info I have references to usb but not sure specifically what I need to see. I do have entries a long the lines of:

"Usb-device ultra fast media reader is blacklisted."

Anything obvious I'm missing?

I'll check what appears in sysinfo.txt with a usb stick inserted as well different phones + iPhone but I read somewhere that the iPhone wouldn't work unless a different usb port is added.

Any hints greatly appreciated. :-)

Resolved. Working with both Apple car play and AA. Just came down to the usb cable for android. Although it worked with a laptop for data transfer probably too long for AA.
