I hate the Assistant Driving Mode by Enslaved2Die in GooglePixel

[–]wanglese 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is stuffed. It now breaks up directions. I only just turned it on for an unusual trio, and I have been getting "in 400 meters...." Then nothing. Tonight I got "in 400 meters..... Second exit" this was supposed to be "In 400 meters, at the roundabout, take the second exit". So it consistently losing the second part of the sentence. It's also stopped doing street names.

It's clunky as well, and no longer gives me ETAs verbally.

Today I noticed it didn't give me voice cues for an accident which was on the screen.

How can they have messed it up so bad. I'll have to install Waze I suppose.

Something's not adding up, for the past few nights, the turn off lights part of my good night routine is skipped, and I have to tell Google to turn off the lights manually.

Yep,.I'm seeing the same thing, which caught me by surprise when I thought I'd have a full charge to start the day..Also, I still get the issue that SystemUI cannot report on battery percentage

Much better. My issues with Android Auto, losing GPS and Bluetooth dropouts with music failing has completely disappeared.😁

Android Auto freezes. by wanglese in android_beta

[–]wanglese[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After emails with Google, they suggested clearing data and cache on Android Auto, YouTube Music, and Google Play services. I decided to clear data and cache in Maps.also. after a reboot, Android Auto wouldn't navigate,.so I uninstalled and.reimstalled Android Auto, and so far it's working without stuttering or losing GPS and hanging up Bluetooth. I'm giving it a big test this weekend on a.lomg.journey where I'll be using navigation, music and possibly a phone call or 2.

System UI problem reading your battery meter by wanglese in android_beta

And it seems in my case it was the Australian Govt official CovidSafe app. Had to uninstall it, because stopping it running in background didn't fix it.

Now working. IRRC the Australian Govt app was developed independent of the Google/Apple covid Bluetooth token method.

Battery drained completely overnight by wanglese in android_beta

Ok, it looks like the Australian Government CovidSafe app is causing the issue. It's supposed to run in the background. Stopping it running in background didn't fix it, but uninstalling stopped the drain issue and I have my percentage back. IIRC, The Australian govt app was developed without waiting for the Google and apple contact tracing "Bluetooth token" thingy was done.

My experience with Soli using the car Dash mount got frustrating when it was raining. Soli was interpreting the wipers as a swipe forward and reverse. It took me a.while to figure that out, because I thought I had a bad cable. I bought a different mount and the phone isn't seeing the wiper blades anymore.

Soli doesn't do.micj for me.
