Please comment here devices that are known to work and not work. Specifically:

  • Phone
  • Raspberry Pi version/hardware.
  • Any customization done to the distro.
  • If it doesn't work, have you tried with other USB cables?

For people using custom HDMI touch screens, please try Starting Crankshaft in X11 mode on image 2018-03-10 or later.

There is very likely that OpenAuto will work with your phone regardless of whether Crankshaft works or not. If Crankshaft does not work for you yet, there is a big chance that if you know how to compile OpenAuto yourself, it will work.

Additional Information:
Android 7.1.1 (N950U1UEU3BRA5)/Android Auto 3.0.570554-release

When Connected to the raspberry pi, Android Auto opened and started the "new device" setup, but then showed an error screen with the message "Communication error 2, the phone and the car are running incompatible software"

I will test with the official open auto instructions and see if that works.

EDIT: After following the compilation instructions for the aasdk and OpenAuto repositories, it appears to be working correctly.

bluetooth does not work yet

@parkerlreed
Copy link

parkerlreed commented Feb 27, 2018

Problem with Bluetooth is I think it depends on the HFP (hands free) profile working in Pulseaudio. I've been messing with it on my x86_64 testbed and while I do get a connection with Ofono running, no phone audio comes across from the phone.

EDIT: Turns out the chipset that particular computer was using wasn't compatible with the way Pulse/Ofono works.

Tried another computer and although I get handsfree audio from the phone ---> computer, nothing seems to happen in OpenAuto. Told it to use the local adapter but it only plays on the phone when making a call (the in call screen in Android Auto doesn't show the unavailable message)

EDIT2: Didn't realize Bluetooth was a separate toggle in the Android Auto phone side application. It is working for me now.

@VBMCBoy Assuming Pulse is setup for HFP on Crankshaft, you just need to toggle Bluetooth on in the AA settings phone side.

Newest crankshaft build.

Probably because of Issue #1 not working, also I don't have an USB -> USB-C cable available at the moment, so I tried it with an USB -> Micro-USB cable with an Micro-USB -> USB-C Adapter attached.

Booting fine, Smartphone recognized and showing the Android Auto Splashscreen, but the HDMI screen is showing the default unconnected screen of Crankshaft.

it works fine w/ the GeeekPi 7 Inch 1024x600 Capacitive Touch Screen
if you do their config.txt adjustment:

hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 3 0 0 0
hdmi_force_hotplug=1

but i don't recommend it, as android auto only supports 480p*, and it looks fuzzy scaled to 600p.

(*) or 720p or 1080p if in dev mode, neither of which look any better at 600p.

nostaxx I have. I use a raspberry pi 3 and a Google Pixel 3 XL running Android 10. It worked for me without any changes. I also use the official 7 in Raspberry Pi display, a USB sound card for AUX and microphone

I saw some videos on it with a pi 3b+ getting a little laggy at some times, is that the case for you as well?

nostaxx: The 3 B+ is what mine is, I haven't noticed much lag. I click an icon and within a second the app loads.
thanhtantran: What kind of a screen are you using? Also you would see the initial boot up whether you have a phone plugged into it or not.

Do sd cards or cables matter?

It works with a Raspberry Pi 4B 8 GB inside of a RasPad 3, the only problem is that at the 720p and 1080p resolutions the UI gets squashed. (although that could just be me)

Gregregorovich commented Feb 27, 2022

Appears to be working (haven't yet mounted it and tested long-term / actual driving use):

Pixel 1 (root), latest (last) factory Android 10

Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W
Waveshare 7" 1024x600 Resistive IPS touch screen.

N.B.: The Pi Zero 2 W has the same amount of RAM (512 MB) as the Pi 3 A, so the GPU_MEM in /boot/crankshaft/crankshaft.env.sh needs to be changed to gpu_mem=128, like the Pi 3 A.

Touch screen drivers had to be installed from Waveshare's github repo, and as that overwrites /boot/config.txt, the original settings need to be merged manually (back /boot/config.txt up first!), and then calibrated with xinput_calibrator*.

In DEV_MODE, run startx, then start a new SSH session or tty with Ctrl+Shift+F2, then run DISPLAY=:0 xinput_calibrator, and then follow the instructions in the output of the xinput_calibrator in the second session and save in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf

As a side note, trying to flip the display 180° when testing initially on a Pi 3 B+ failed completely. (For cable management reasons, which are irrelevant with a working Zero 2, which is the case.)
With vc4-fkms-v3d set in config.txt (appears to be required for OpenAuto to run), the following methods of display rotation do not work:
config.txt
display_rotate=2 display_hdmi_rotate=2 display_lcd_rotate=2 lcd_rotate=2
/etc/crontab
@reboot root echo 2 > /sys/class/graphics/fbcon/rotate_all @reboot root sleep 30 && DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate inverted
/boot/cmdline.txt
video=HDMI-A-1:1280x800M@60,rotate=180

Whilst the above solutions that aren't set in config.txt work to at least flip the OpenAuto home screen, as soon as Android Auto connects, it returns to normal rotation and ignores the above settings.

I am aware that at least some of the config.txt settings are supposed to be calculated on the display itself (and the official Raspberry Pi screen supports this to reduce GPU load), and it appears that this specific Waveshare display does not seem to support this, but I don't understand why when OpenAuto is rotated, Android Auto isn't (as soon as the phone is connected).

Q: Did any one try with Waveshare IPS displays? I see above post, but not able to configure.
I am planning to get new one - but not sure it will work or will give me any issues. Since height is less (60mm + 260MM) it will look good on a dashboard!

I'd also like to know if anyone has tried this. I was considering this exact unit, because I'm not satisfied with my aftermarket Amazon Auto-Screen. The boot/connection process is stupid slow and the refresh rates, buffering, etc. are not the best. So, I figured I could use my RP 4+ B or my Orange Pi Zero 2 and build something better. Also, with the thin form factor or the screen, I could hide the Raspberry Pi and lose all of the bulk, which will make it a more professional looking install. Sorry for the long post.

Regular LG display connected to HDMI on mi Pi4. Connected phone and all worked as expected (I could see Google Maps etc.)
Then I switched to the WaveShare 8" DSI display(https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/8DP-CAPLCD). Installed the drivers as described by WaveShare. After the reboot, the Crankshaft GUI does show and all seems OK. But when I connect my phone I do see that it is connected (big tile shows USB OnePlus), but the Open Auto doesn't show, and I keep seeing the Crankshaft GUI (right top corner says "lock". Don't know if that is relevant though)
On my phone, it does show that I am connected to Android Auto.
