Hi there, sorry to make my first post a question but I've searched everywhere and can't find any info on this.
The problem I'm having is that my phone won't connect to the dongle when the dongle is connected to my LG 32LG7000 TV.
The dongle connects to the TV with no problems and the instructions appear, but when I connect the phone the normal connection screen appears and flashes blue 3 times before dropping the connection to the phone.
The dongle works fine with every other TV I've tried it with so I don't think it has a problem, it just doesn't like this telly!
Has anyone experienced something similar? I'm thinking it's maybe a HDMI / DRM thing....
Many thanks.
Has anyone had any success with android auto and the V10? I have not been able to connect to my NEX4100 via android auto AND bluetooth....
I think there are general bluetooth issues. I have a 2014 Cadillac with CUE Bluetooth and the V10 connects fine but no media can play. Calls work fine. I've tried many of the tricks that helped with the LG G4 (turning media audio off in settings after connecting then turning it back on) to no avail.
Between this and the force restarts, I may return this phone and go with the Nexus 6P. Also annoyed that verizon is selling the Qi chargin back as an accessory...
I had the same issue with my 2014 Jetta and the V10, took me 30 minutes of restarting bluetooth, turning the phone off and on, turning the car off and on and finally I switched my car to FM and the bluetooth connected to also support media audio. After that it worked ok. No idea what's up with the bluetooth but for my wireless headset it paired without issue. Seems picky

Same strange issues here.
Paired no problem to a 2015 Honda Accord. Unable to pair to a 2011 BMW X3 (however the HTC One M8, M9, Samsung Galaxy Avant and Light all pair no problem). And it paired no problem to a 2016 BMW X3.
And at the gym, it disconnected from the bluetooth headset while I was using it. Wouldn't reconnect until I powered the headset off and back on.
I've got the nex4100 as well and I have had no issues at all. Everything works as it should.

I don't know. Others in the thread seem to be confirming the issue your having but I seem to be the only one with the exact same head unit. Do you have the update for the head unit? My S5 had issues before the update. Update is kind of old but it did help with my S5. And Android Auto is working fine.

I am up to date on the 4100. So i swapped it out today and now it works with Android Auto, however it still does not work with bluetooth which is super odd.. to my understanding when you plug the phone in to connect to AA it still transmits the audio over bluetooth. Pioneer said it could be something wrong with the media bluetooth profile or something. Anyways i guess im stuck until they fix it. Maybe when android M comes out.
I don't know about Android Auto, but I definitely think the V10 has Bluetooth issues. I traded my Galaxy S6 Edge+ in for a V10 a week ago. I notice the Bluetooth audio is consistently "skipping" on both my car's audio and my Bluetooth headphones. Both devices worked flawlessly on my S6. Sometimes my car will even completely disconnect from the phone and I have to go through a complete reset/re-add process to get it back.
Hoping a 6.0 update will come soon and fix this issue.

Just an update as I just ran new cable in the car for the new phone. Everything tested out fine for me. The car is an 02 Camaro that I don't drive often now that it's cold outside but after hearing your problems I wanted to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. I don't think bluetooth audio while on Android Auto worked at all but Google play works just fine. Bluetooth audio was flawless when not connected to Android Auto. Tested it on and off Wi-Fi. Good to hear your better after the swap.

I'm having problems connecting to my 2015 GMC Sierra (GMC Intellilink). I can connect, connect automatically, make and receive phone calls, but the bluetooth audio for music DOES NOT WORK. Most of the time, when I try to play a song via google play music or Deezer, the head unit in my truck immediately goes BLACK for about 10 seconds, I hear a whirrr of an internal fan, and it starts back up disconnected from the phone. The phone is causing the head unit to fail & restart. Sometimes it doesn't restart. It'll show the progress bar of the music, as well as on my phone. I can pause, play, next song, etc. but NO AUDIO comes out. It's just dead silent.
I'll let you guys know what my dealership says, as it's in service right now for this issue. I'm hoping there's an update for the software :/
When I bluetooth over to my $300 Sony x-7s speaker, every 10 seconds or so I get a loud static pop. Luckily I kept my note3 so I just use that until an update (hopefully) will fix the issue, so I can listen to my Howard Stern on the v10. I am surprised they didn't push an update on or near release date. Maybe they are going straight to Marshmallow.
So i have an update after having a week or so to play around with it. Although I cannot connect to my NEX 4100 via bluetooth I can use google play music via android auto. Also i cannot use spotify on AA UNLESS i hit play on google play music first then pause then try to play a song on spotify...... very strange.
I'm glad it's not just me... Same weird bluetooth issues here with my Mercedes E63 AMG and the COMMAND unit. It was working flawlessly with my last phone (Xperia Z3.) The V10 is nothing but a headache so far. The following problems are happening:
Won't connect at all, and hangs.
Connects for calls only, no media.
Connects, instantly disconnects, cycle repeats.
To fix it I either have to keep manually connecting from COMMAND, until it randomly works. Or disconnect from the phone, and reconnect again. Or turn bluetooth off and on. On the note of which, half the time I do that, it hangs. Love the phone, but I'm going to return it if this goes on.
Further note: I even took the car in to the dealer, and paid 150 bucks to get the latest firmware updates done on it. That didn't fix it either. Tried my Xperia again, still works flawlessly. Ugh.
I had an interesting issue with bluetooth.
I paired it to my 2015 Jeep Overland.
Music from SD Card played fine.
Then tried pandora. Nothing worked. Disabled bluetooth and pandora was fine. Went back to local mp3s from SD card and they would not play now.
Had to un-pair and pair it again. Then mp3s worked.
Played pandora and nothing and that broke mp3s again.
Then I tried my g4 on Sprint. Pandora worked fine.
Also tried Tune in Radio and that worked on v10 over bluetooth.
I think it is caused by Binge On from t- mobile downsampling the stream on pandora and the Uconnect radio does not like the bitrate or format.
I did read t-mobile will downsample streamed movies.
So folks with bluetooth issues, what are you testing with?
I have a less standard setup. I connect to my 2012 Cadillac system as a phone only, and I have an aptx bt dongle attached to the aux port that I'm connected to as a media device.
My phone connects to both simultaneously, and hands the phone back and forth for calls and music. It works flawlessly, and the audio quality way better than any OEM bt streaming that I've ever heard.
I have a Pioneer DEH 80PRS in my truck and it has connected and works perfect just like my G3 did. It always auto connects when entering the vehicle and hands off between streaming Tune in radio or from the SD card using the Android music player app and a phone call no problem. Hopefully the guys having problems will get a fix when the phone is given some MM goodness.
Same issues with Bluetooth and my 4100nex. Calls work, Android auto works, Bluetooth music does not. I'm in my 14 day window. This may be a deal breaker for me. Kinda regret ditching my note 4 for this.
Yall think it will get fixed with an update, or are we permanently screwed?

I am having the same problem with my LG V10. It won't stay connected to my Lexus 2015. The only thing I found that would work is if I keep the phone unlocked.
looks to be an issue with LG

Same issue between LG V10 T-Mobile and my Bluetooth audio on my 2014 Kia Optima SX. I also have similar connectivity issues between the phone and the Microsoft Band. Similar reports on the Microsoft boards of same Bluetooth issues with the Band and V10. Sounds like a problem on the LG side to me.
Is it just me or is there a problem with LG G5 (H860) connecting to Chromecast?
I can't get to connect to my 2 chromecast devices on my TV using my new LG G5 (H860) cellphone. Also tried Localcast and YouTube. It still won't connect.
My other devices work alright (Samsung Tab A) connecting to the chromecast device. I've also tried a different chromecast unit and it still won't connect
See screenshots for reference.
Well.. I have a fully working screen casting.
One with the older model Chromecast and one with the new model.
Just used one of them today and earlier this week the other..
Tried to reboot your device and chromecast?
Edit.
I have a H850 model

I have the LG G5 LS992 (Sprint-US variant) and CHromecast works just fine. I tried Youtube, Netflix and Spotify with no problem.
You are not alone in this problem. I too have the LG G5 and have begun noticing connection issues with this specific handset.
I can usually get it to connect without issue and begin the streaming process, then somewhere along the line, the phone disconnects on it's end of things while the media continues playing on my home theater or my TV and I then have zero control over what's playing.
I'll also see intermittent flashes of the cast button on my phone's screen and when I go to connect, it asks for the CC's pin. Problem is, once something's streaming, you can't see the pin, so I have to unplug any and all power to the CC to get it back to working order. I have one in my living room and one in my bedroom and both will disconnect at various times from the phone, but not the wifi network. I know it's the phone because my old HTC One M8 will remain connected, without issue. Our tablets and PCs remain connected as well.
It's only this phone that I'm having trouble with. Even the Google Cast app doesn't find the CCs in the house, just that it knows I have backdrop settings for both.
It's become a major annoyance since we stream most of our entertainment now. I don't know why it's doing it, but I'm hoping someone has an idea. I do, but it may be nothing of value....
In Marshmallow, there's supposedly a setting to allow the wifi to sorta "sleep" to save on battery power until you touch the screen. I'm wondering if the wifi goes to sleep and disconnects from the Chromecast, causing this issue? If that's the case, is there a way to disable that so it doesn't do it? I have to charge the battery or swap it out on a regular basis anyway, so I can't imagine I'm saving much by leaving such a feature activated.
Hey all, I recently traded in my V20 for a new G6.
I've got a 2016 Honda Civic and am having serious issues with Android Auto. Every time i plug in, it will play audio for about 10 minutes and then disconnect. Once I reconnect it will be about 10 seconds to 1 minute before it disconnects again if it connects at all. After clearing app data in AA i usually can get it to stay for about 10 minutes and then it does it again.
I know it's not the cable because i've tested both the cable that i was using with my v20 and also the one that came as a charging cable for the g6.
I have tried turning on USB debugging and also have tried all three USB connection modes.
This is super frustrating especially because for some reason (even though my v20 played audio just fine) the g6 and civic combo will only connect bluetooth for voice and not for media (without crashing.)
Anyone else experience this??
Sorry I can't help. It works fine on my Tesla.
I have what might be a similar issue. I don't get disconnects but on my 2017 Chevy Colorado, if I turn off the truck with the phone still connected to USB (for example, a quick stop at a gas station), after I restart the truck, G6 audio doesn't work at all. I have to reboot. I've tried force-stopping Waze, Pandora, and Android Auto; disconnecting and reconnecting USB; and even going into airplane mode (my phone hitchhikes on the truck's WiFi)... nothing works except a reboot. Literally the only thing I don't like about the G6.
Android Auto was flawless on my previous Nexus 6P ... but it went into bootloop and became a $700 paperweight.
I'm having similar issues with my G6 and AAuto in a 17Civic Hatchback My 1st drive of the day is usually ok But 2nd and thereafter drives no matter how much time in between The radio or music play pauses randomly whether it's a music player on Bluetooth sub Amazon music Pandora even Sirius radio I brought it in for service 4 times they tell me it's the phone or settings on the phone finally got a tech to see what's going on long story shorter they just replaced the entire radio/android system with latest android update well guess what same old same old still doing it very frustrating I had an LG G3 prior and for the most part no issues So is it a G6 thing Android Auto thing or Honda thing??? I also tried 4 or 5 different music player apps that are compatible with AA
When pressing the play button on any music player while connected to my 2017 Civic, it instantly crashes the bluetooth application. Oddly enough, for some reason the YouTube Music application can play multiple tracks without issue as long as you're using a playlist and keeping the screen off while doing so. I don't think that Android Auto is the problem, because it works perfectly fine via USB port and always allows me to interface with the application on my Civic's touchscreen panel. However, I am glad to see that I'm not the only one with this issue so maybe there will be a fix hopefully somewhere down the line.

I can't get Android Auto or Mirror Link to work on my Skoda Kodiaq, it's not the car as all other phones work with it. I have tried using the stock cable and other cables, when i connect it, the car recognises something is connected and the phone asks me what to do with the USB connection (charge only, transfer files or photos) and i've tried all of them. The car eventually gives up and says the phone is not compatible, something i used to get with my OnePlus 3t as it didn't support Mirror Link but it would work instantly on Android Auto.
I have read online that there were issues with Android Auto on previous phone models but the manufacturer were looking to get this fixed in this phone. If it was a cheap phone i'd probably just leave it, as i did with Mirror Link on the OnePlus, but for a phone they are pushing at a crazy price and saying is premium, they have work to do. Has anyone figured out any fixes for this, or managed to get it to work on their car?
I've got the same problem with my huawei mate 20 pro and Dynavin 7 ce in Tuareg.
Very annoying thing. Any solution someone?
I have a 4 week old T-Roc and Android Auto works fine on mine, I can't quite remember what options I had to allow on the phone but it didn't work straight out the box but works fine now with Google Maps, Waze and Spotify.
There was a bug with some cars and newer android versions. I have to enable USB debugging on my phone for android auto to work. Can't explain why.
Ive been using it for a few days and have no issues with Google map, listening to music or making calls or sending texts using voice.
Does anyone know how to stop it asking what you want to do everytime you plug in the usb in the car? Very annoying.
