Question Tasker and YouTube Music app - Google Pixel 6 Pro

Hello , I just jumped to Pixel 6 Pro wagon and have some problem with control YouTube Music (YTM) with Takser.
Usually I use taasker to start playing YTM when connect to my car.. I use task with media Control action with Play [simulated only] action.
It stoped working on Pixel 6 PRO and still working on my old phone (one plus 9 Pro) .
Anyone use such combo (tasker and YTM) and can share you experience ?

Yep that is example how I get music to play in my car. I used the tasker recipe which detects my car connect, waits a few seconds then does the play and adjusts my volume to max. What I do find is that if I have restart my phone or updated YTM then the app isn't running in the background and as such won't respond to the play command. Basically I need to make sure that the app has been opened atleast once and I have played atleast 1 song, I can then close it and swipe it from recents but will still popup with the tasker command.

i have exactly the same problem. At Google Pixel 2 with Android 12 there is no such problem, everything works fine. At pixel 4, the media button does not work.

I'm assuming you mean Android 11 on the Pixel 2. Or you mean Android 12 on the Pixel 3.

No, I mean Android 12 on pixel 2 (pixel experience mod)

Help with Google Play Music control card

Hi guys i've just bought a fresh new moto 360. I played with it a few hours and there's something i can't get to work.
I noticed that when i launch the google play music on the phone, the card for controlling the music disappears in a second and it never turns back until i pause music from the phone. If i press play on the moto360, card goes away and never turns back until...and so on. I think (and i hope) that this is not the way it's meant to work
Android Wear app on the phone is the latest i suppose, i've downloaded it a few hours ago
Build number of the moto 360 OS is LWX49L (5.0.2)
Help please

I think it's a bug in the music app as I have the same intermittent issue both on the watch and on my Nexus 6. I'm sure a fix will roll out shortly.
I'm running 5.8.1836R of Google Play Music.

Android Auto, is it working for you?

Got my phone today and installed the android auto app, enabled all the permissions, etc. When I plug it into my truck, the android auto tab shows up at the bottom for a brief moment, then goes away. I didn't have any issues like this with my OG XL(which also had 8.0 on it) or my OP3. I tried doing some troubleshooting by reinstalling the app, removing my phone from know android auto devices and enabling USB debugging. Nothing so far has worked. Anyone else having issues? Car is a '16 F-150. Thanks.
ETA: Well, got it working! Went into the app itself and it's settings. Under connected cars, SYNC was listed as "rejected". I cleared all cars and re-added mine. Now it's working great lol!
Pixel 2 XL connects very slowly with Android auto
Tried to setup Android auto head unit with the Pixel 2 XL after switching from Pixel XL with normal function. The Pixel 2 XL takes way longer than expected to connect with Android auto on the head unit but, it does work. However, I had to reinstalled the Android auto app several times to even get a usable configuration. I called Google support but, they had no answer about the problem as of Oct. 27, 2017.
Android auto 2016 VW Tiguan
I was having troubles getting my VW's system to recognize the phone. I kept getting USB device not supported. That is until I went into my cars android auto
menu and manually selected my Pixel 2 XL. After doing that, Android auto connects automatically when I plug it in.
Seems to connect about as fast as my OG Pixel (7.1.2 & 8.0), and op3t.
no issues setting up or connecting for me.
only issue I have is no ringing on incoming phone calls, I get notification and all, just no sound.
had this issue intermittently on original pixel xl also.
Negative.
Using a Sony XAV-AX100, works for maybe a minute sometimes at first. Then cuts in and out rapidly. Then other times it won't even recognize it.
I'm having issues as well. I have a 2017 GTI and mines connect similar as the pixel XL, the issue is that the Pixel 2 XL disconnect and reconnect often times and that's very annoying. Probably every 5-10 minutes. I have cleared cache and data from the app and reset the phone and still with the issue. It happens with 8.0 and 8.1
BTW I'm using the USB cable came with Nexus 6p. Have been using the same one since.
hmmmm 2 VW owners with this issue. No other vehicle manufacturer's mentioned. Looks like it's related to the emissions cheating if you ask me.
Just kidding. I really hope they get this figured out - I currently don't have android auto in my 2016 - it will be in my car I get next July.
Same Issue

I'm having the same issue. I have a 2015 Kia Optima and Android Auto worked flawlessly with my Nexus 6p. On the Pixel 2 XL, it disconnects every 5-10 minutes. Tried all the same troubleshooting steps with no resolution.

Exact same problem with xav ax100.
No problems with OG XL on 8.0
I think this thread makes it pretty clear this is a pixel 2 XL issue
It works perfectly in my 2017 Honda Accord. I upgraded yesterday to 8.1 and it still works great. And I have the 2 xl. It even allows me to use "hey google" in the car. Love android auto

Me too, with new 2017 Pilot, use maps, use ok google, send texts all without touching phone, love it.
Works like a champ on my Chevy where I used to have some issues with the onePlus 3t
First day it kept closing every 10 mins. Now it works perfectly. Not sure what changed. 2017 Ford fusion
Earlier this year I had trouble with AA stopping/disconnecting. I had a Pixel XL and a new crv. I read in a crv forum that Google Maps beta caused problems for some. I was on the beta. I deleted the app and got off the beta channel, then reinstalled everything. It worked well after that. That was 6 months ago, not sure if it applies any more but if you are on the beta channel & having issues I'd try changing. My son has a new GTI and also had trouble with AA. He was on Maps beta also and going stable helped him. You need to delete the app and its data then reinstall.
im having issues with it working then 2 -3 mins later i get error 12 and AA crashes :/ anyone else getting this

Fwiw. My fix was manually selecting my 2XL in my 2016 VW Tiguan's AA car's menu, after I did that it connects automatically every time I plug it in.
I 'Forgot' my Sony XAV-AX100 and reconnected and went on a 35 minute drive with no issues (see my previous post about my issues).
Time will tell.

I have the same Sony but I have no sound when navigating using Google Maps, It's the same for my OnePlus 3T as well ifI use the XAV-AX100. You can tell the navigation is running because it pauses the podcasts. Waze is working though.

Since they added Waze I totally gave up on Google maps...Especially because you cant get satellite on google maps.

Android Auto and Pandora crashing

Ever since I believe around the 3rd Android 9 beta update, pandora kept crashing on my Android Auto. I was hoping the full "street" version of 9 released yesterday would resolve this but it didnt. I also noticed the screen on my car blacking out at times and then coming back on during android auto. The problem is I can go a song or two on pandora and then it stops and says pandora inaccessible on the screen and then a new song starts playing. Sometimes, it will cut off 3 songs in a row within the first minute of each song. Its really frustrating and I cant tell if its a pandora thing or android auto thing. Used to think it was a beta thing but thats clearly not it anymore.
I do keep my phone in my cupholder area and was wondering if when the proximity or light sensor gets changed in there, would that affect anything? It didnt before, Im just wondering if theres any new settings that could be making that change.
My original pixel xl did that on the betas but I replaced that phone with a pixel 2 xl over the weekend and I haven't noticed it happening with the new phone.

I even tried turning off battery management in the app and lowering the audio quality like I read in a couple other places but neither worked. Its still crapping out and then starting a new song.
Just saw an update from AA so hopefully that works. Ill report back.

Android Pie false gamepad detection in games

I have an issue with a game called Gear.Club on Android Pie and Pixel 2 XL. The game works fine on Android Oreo 8.1.
The issue is that with Android Pie, the game loads and detects a gamepad connected to my device and switches the control mode to game pad and disables tilt controls, but I don't have a gamepad connected. I've tried a factory reset, starting the game with bluetooth disabled, nothing seems to work. The only solution I've found is to revert my system back to Android 8.1.
Does anyone else have this issue?
The game was installed via the Google Play Store: "Gear.Club - True Racing", and the device is stock not rooted.
Same issue
I have the same problem. Can't seem to get it fixed. Have tried everything that you've done. No solution.

Question Lockscreen - Show full notifications (WhatsApp etc..)

Hi everyone,
I switched from pixel 5 to oneplus 9 pro and was wondering, why I don't see all notifications on the lockscreen, when spotify is playing. For example Whatsapp is hidden.
When Spotify is not running, WhatsApp is displayed normally.
Thanks in advance
I'm assuming your on Android 12 (OOS12)? Unfortunately it is still with bugs, that being one of them that OnePlus has still not fixed since they released the Android 12 update.
I had even reported the same use using the "proper" feedback and they asked me for logs. That was back in early April'22 and yet still they did not manage to fix it.
