Auto connect in Native mode

[Anton111111]

Hi! I have AA natively works on my HU. But I'd like to use it occasionally, not constantly ;). My preferred usage is USB most of the time and Native occasionally. But now Native automatically connects as soon as HURev starts. I tried adding a setting to disable autoconnect. It simply disables nativeAaHandshakeManager?.start() and wifiDirectManager.startNativeAaQuietHost() when starting aapservice.

And that partially helped. Now, the wireless connection doesn't start (only if i manual start it with WIFI button in HURev), but the phone still somehow detects that a wireless connection is available and constantly tries to connect to HU. This is evident in the phone constantly displaying a notification that the phone is trying to connect (it disappears, then reappears). I also think this is affecting the battery due to the constant connection attempts.

Do you have any ideas how the phone detects that a wireless connection is available and how to avoid this?

This is because the bluetooth connection for the wifi exchange is still there and HURev will present itself as a native wireless android auto device and the phone sees it and in the real android auto settings, you have "connected cars" and probably auto start android auto enabled. So the phone sees the device again and instantly tries to connect, but never will, because your changes prevent it from connecting. What I do is set the wireless mode to Headunit Server manual. So there is no auto search and auto connect. But maybe a "Wireless Mode: none" would do the trick.

I don't quite understand this part. You mean selecting the headunit server manual mode. And when do i need to manually start the server on my phone? Does that mean I have to manually go into the AA settings and turn on the server when I want to use wireless AA? If so, that's too complicated for everyday use ;)

No, I just mean, if you don't want auto scan or the native mode to start on usb, you can switch to this mode. It will do nothing and your phone won't try to connect.

But as you suggest a "non wifi mode" option or a "disable autostart/connect" would be a valid idea

I just tried Headunity server manual. But my phone continue trying to connect wireless (of course without success). But the constantly hanging notification on the phone with the progress bar is annoying ;) I wonder if there's a way to respond to a BT request from a HUR phone so it stops making these attempts.

So far, the only way to stop these attempts is to disable the wireless mode in the AA settings on the phone.
