Hi,

we just released a new version 4.2.12, which now support Xiaomi devices when the phone screen is off. There however is still one problem left, which is a different issue, that the app does not automatically start on some phones, when the screen is off, so if you experience that, please shortly start the phone and the ABRP app. Once done you can turn off the screen again. We are working on a solution for that too in a seperate issue:
abrp.upvoty.com/b/report-a-bug/bug-or-feature-android-auto/

If after 4.2.12 you still experience issues, except the one i mentioned here, please open a new issue, as it is most likely something else.

Has there been any update on this? It defeats the purpose of getting the premium subscription. I have a Xiaomi Mi 10 ultra and am facing this problem

Samsung S20 5G on Android 12. I let my ABRP premium lapse though because it wasn't working.

Mapbox has a fix available in an early test version that we want to try. I will build an internal test version with that, but it might not be as stable as the release version (which in your case doesn't make much of a difference anyways). If there is anyone that wants to test this please let me know. I need 2-3 people maybe with different phones so please reply below this post with your phone name so we can run some tests with you.

ABRP on Android Auto is broken. Unless the phone screen is on AND abrp app open the map doesn't move. Routing is also broken as it doesn't give directions either.
The only way to make ABRP app work is to have it open on the phone as well. This heats the phone tremendously.

The version 4.2.9 doesn't work on my skoda enyaq IV. The map doesn't move on the 4.2.9 and on 4.2.10 the map moves, but the car o on desapears at the edge of the map after a while. The only version that works is the 4.2.8. My Phone is a Poco X3 PRO, with MIUI 12, based on Android 11.

My phone freezes when I turn off the screen. I cannot assess premium to decide whether or not to pay for the subscription if this problem is not resolved. Carrying the screen on and the app open on the mobile on long trips is not an option

Mi movil se congela al apagar la pantalla. No puedo valorar premium para decidir pagar o no la subscripción si no se resuelve este problema. Llevar la pantalla encendida y la app abierta en el móvil en viajes largos no es una opcion

I have the same issue phone is Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G with Android 12 and ABRP version 4.2.9

when phone is locked abrp is not working when the app is open on the screen then abrp is operational

Hi, which phone do you use? And which ABRP version? You can check that at the bottom of settings.

The navigation freezes every couple of minutes in the car display

Samuel_ABRP

Hi,

can you please provide more information? Which phone and android version do you use? Which ABRP version?

alan Stone

Start the app before plugging in. Opens on car screen. Enter destination, route plan is ok, screen shows live SOC ok. But when I drive the map is stationary. If I change app on the screen and go back to ABRP it updates at that point but then remains stationary.
One of the reasons for my subscription is to have it on the car screen so I don't need things stuck to my windscreen

Hi Agustin
Can you tell which Smartphone do you use?
Is it connected to CarPlay or Android Auto?

Is it possible to implement the "always" option for location in your app as well? Attached a screenshot of location settings from ABRP and Garmin Connect for comparison.

I think this will fix the GPS issue in background if the phone screen is off.

developer.android.com/training/permissions/requesting

On Android 10 (API level 29) and higher, you must declare the ACCESS_BACKGROUND_LOCATION permission in your app's manifest in order to request background location access at runtime. On earlier versions of Android, when your app receives foreground location access, it automatically receives background location access as well.

Samuel_ABRP

Hi, when the screen is off, nothing is done in ABRP anyways, so no need to get background location. What is your issue you see so you think we need this permission?

Christian Hollbjär

When I turn off my screen on my Xiaomi 12 pro the Android Auto stops updating. So to be able to use the Android Auto i need to have the screen on all the time on the phone.

We did some more tests and it seems to be an issue with the map renderer we use. They have a sample app that we tried, and it behaves exactly the same as our app. So we opened an issue at their bug tracker to ask for guidance. If you want to watch progress you can subscribe here:

Hi, just wanted to let you know we started looking into this and can reproduce the behavior. No solution available yet though. But we are working on it.

Merged with: Android Auto map freezes

Juwieh

When using Android Auto, very often (but not always) the map does not move after its first display.

After starting navigation, the map shows the car position and the planned route on the map. But when driving, the map stands still, and the car position indicator does not move either.

The car position indicator is always showing northbound, regardless of the direction where I drive or where the route goes to.

Sometimes the blue line for the planned route is also missing, but most of the time it is visible.

When I change to a different screen (e.g. the Android music player) and then return to the ABRP map, the map refreshes, but then freezes again with the same symptoms.

I can move the map manually though.

This happens both with a wired and a wireless AA connection.

Equipment:
* Xiaomi Mi 11 pro
* Android 12
* Skoda Enyaq

Hi, so even when the app is running and you switch off the display, it stops updating the map?

Stefan Bäckman

Hi, I just want to pitch in that I had a similair behaviour with a OnePlus 9 phone. I returned my phone because of this.
When I connected the OnePlus 9 phone to the car it worked fine for about a minute. After that it started to act strange. Found out the problem started when the screen locked. Pressing/clicking buttons in Android Auto interface stopped working, not just buttons in AA apps but also the AA menu circle and so on. The AA interface more or less frooze. However, pinch to zoom and moving the map around with two fingers worked. The funny thing is that I have the same car as Juwi, a Skoda Enyaq. I blamed the phone, not the app because it was affecting all of Android Auto. I also suspect the Skoda Enyaq implementation of Android Auto. I've had several other problems with AA in this car but not other cars.
Maybe this information can help you understand the problem.

Juwieh

OK, yesterday I did a few more tests, and I think I have come much closer to when this happens!
The car position marker moves only when I have the app open on the phone AND the phone is unlocked.
As soon as I either change the app (or press the home button) or when I lock the phone, it stops updating the car marker.
I could reproduse it reliably a number of times.
I have also pressed the bug button, but unfortunately I can only press it only when the app is open, and this is exactly when it does work. But maybe the report helps anyway.

Samuel_ABRP

Hi Juwi,

You say you can manually move the map, but it does not update the car position. So the map is not frozen, but the car position does not update. Is that correct? And this is not related to the other issue where you have to start the phone app first, as it updates when you change to another app and then back to ABRP.

The ABRP app shows the correct data on the app if you keep it active while driving?

So how does it behave when you plan a route? Does it show the preview and if it shows the preview does it also show the route? Can you maybe post a video of that behavior? You can upload it to your Google drive share and share a link here or send me a mail to samuel@iternio.com or upload it to YouTube as private video.
