3. Steps to reproduce your issue
Bluetooth immediately connects and AA is started on my phone with the AA menu displayed on it. On the pi 7" screen, the OAP menu appears. I cannot engage OAP hotspot. Pressing on the setting (about about a 20 second delay) causes the switch to turn on the hotspot. But after a few seconds, it switches off by itself.
reading other threads, i attempted changing settings in my phone for mobile data. then restarted oap with same results. The music plays wonderfully from a file and through my phone to pandora but no map and no wifi connection.
I figure that Im missing a step somewhere...
Made another attempt:
Went into settings in the phone: settings / connections/ wifi / advanced / Switch to mobile data turned ON
Went into settings in the phone: settings / connections/ mobile hotspot and tethering / switched hotspot ON
Went into OAP settings: was now able to switch Mobile Hotspot ON ... changed to 5G ... display shows hotspot indicator
Went back to phone: settings / connections / wifi / connected to Openauto Pro ... connection made
Restarted OAP/AA: AA goes to phone screen only. Pi screen displays OAP settings screen. Incoming phone call goes directly to phone. Contacts are listed. Favorite contacts are not listed under the favorites tab. Sound active and plays as intended.
