I use the Motorola MA1 wireless and it works perfectly with Android Auto. I would highly recommend this.

I even had a dealer helping with the Carplay/splitter issue. In short, no go.. the splitter and hubs hogs enough of the data rate it won’t work,

 

hi, just to confirm, you have used this on your Harley? I've tried other brands on my harley and they won't work, but, they work as advertised in my truck.

 

I have used both AA Wireless and Carsifi on my SG and both work. I like the AA Wireless better.

 

Yes it works perfectly. Connects every time. I rode 8 hours the other day and used AA map nav the entire time and still had battery left on my Samsung S21. I have a 2021 SGS

 

ok thankyou! mines on order.

 

I'm preparing for the 10 hour ride to Laconia. I've had such issues with my S22 and Android Auto with direct connection through USB. Had no issues with my old S9. Sometimes it behaves, sometimes I have to reboot the phone for it to stay consistently connected. And every time a new update for the phone or AA hits I have to fuss with some new bug.

All that seems to be solved with the Motorola MA1 in the last few trial rides. However, been trying to determine if I can make it those many hours on a charge. The whole reason to use this system is to not have my phone out on the bars or something, and then tied into the 12v to charge. I did pick up a USB power brick to add to the overall life, so plan is to throw the phone and brick in the saddlebags.

MA1 stock is still very hard to come by, so unfortunately had to pay over MSRP for a MA1 from a reseller on eBay.

This is the first post I've seen of suggested battery life while streaming AA. Thanks for that.

 

Funny 2018 CRV uses BT not cable .

 

Glad you are finding the MA1 to work well. I was lucky to get one from Motorola when they went back into stock at normal price. If I didn't luck out I was going to ebay as well. Still worth the extra dollars in my opinion. As far as battery usage I was connected for 8 hours and had 12% left when I unplugged. I only made one call during that time. I read that it did drain the battery so I purposely ran it for a whole day trip and it still was good to go. I hope you have similar results. Good luck.

 

Got back from Laconia and 9 days of riding, zero issues with the MA1. Many stops and starts, always connected right up. Battery usage was about the same as yours, could get a full day of riding out of one charge. I did bring a portable power brick, but only used it on the ride back as there was minimal stopping.
