android

The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of its first beta on November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released on September 23, 2008. The operating system is developed by Google on a yearly cycle since at least 2011. New major releases are announced at Google I/O along with its first public beta to supported Google Pixel devices. The stable version is then released later in the year.

    Is Android Auto working on your MG4 ?

    I've got my MG4 Trophy in November 2022 and generally speaking I like it! I've had few issues with infotainment software (flashing and jumping screens etc...) at the beginning but most of them either disappear or been sorted by software update except of one. Android Auto (including Google maps...

    Wireless android auto?

    Has anyone used something like this to make their android auto connection wireless? Did it work? (I don't like having to plug in every time and having a cable there gets in the way).

    Android connection cable drops out frequently

    I like Google Waze as a navigator so connected my Galaxy s20 to my MG4 Trophy and things worked well for a few miles. Then the connection was lost. Pulling the USB out and replugging (easier than messing with the phone end when driving) restores the data for another few miles. Some research...

    Weird Android Auto behaviour

    I usually run Android Auto with the voice prompts on mute, because I'm only checking to see how the traffic is and if it might be advisable to take a different route. Also the voice prompts annoy the hell out of me. All was well on Wednesday the last time I used it, and it saved me a...

    CarPlay and Android Auto stopped working

    We sent our car to Peterborough today to see if they could fix the radio. It’s a bit crashy, and recently both CarPlay and AndroidAuto stopped working. After most of a day (and no courtesy car) they’ve said it wouldn’t take a software update and MG need to fix it. We don’t know when that will be...

    USB Cable for Android Auto/CarPlay

    Hey all, What USB cables are you using for Android Auto/CarPlay? I'm trying to find one that's short enough without dangling all the excess wires and ideally one that actually makes the phone fit on the platform. If it's a standard straight USB, the phone takes up the whole platform and with a...
