So I recently !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! which has bluetooth. I have however been having a couple issues with the autoplay from my LG G4.

The !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! is set up to auto connect to my phone and auto play my music. This works fine when you have recently been playing music and the music controls are still present on the lock screen (I use a pattern lock). When the controls are not present on the lock screen the auto play functionality does not work and I have to press play on the head unit to start the music. When the music app is closed it does nothing which is to be expected as there are 5 different apps to play music with on my phone and there is no way for the head unit to know which one to use.

How have oppos set up their android phones and stereos to work properly? It would be nice to just have it auto play every time whether the controls are present or not.

Audi Quattro S1 for your time.

I can’t help you. I have my cars tied to my Windows Phone.

It just works

I am the oddball in the family who doesn’t use an iPhone or drive a Subaru.

I don’t do either of those things either

Though I almost did, once or twice. Then I came to my senses

I drove a Subaru up until a week ago. Now it is my sisters car.

I drove a Subaru once

Yeah, that’s it. Pretty sure I’ve never piloted a Subaru more than once, and that was a test drive

I have the free“car dashroid” app to auto connect once it detects the car bluetooth connection. from there you can set up custom shortcuts and what not, even set up quick call shortcuts to contacts and navigation

I also have AutoMate, which sells itself as a google auto clone but i hardly use it since its still in beta

I feel like there has to be a way to do this without a 3rd party app.
