Android Car GPS Apple CarPlay Phone Call No Sound Fixed, Zlink Android Auto calls No Audio Fixed!

[@cali5224]

Thank you bud I was thinking my car play was messed up 😂 appreciate it bro

[@michaelhptsui]

I am new to Carplay and I am using iphone. AFter installation CarPlay to my car, everything seems fine EXCEPT the phone function, the Carplay recognises incoming and outgoing calls on screen notification. BUT it seems no sound coming to the car speaker and I cannot pick up incoming calls from the Carplay (although the incoming notification appears there). All other functions for music, podcast, map seem fine. Your video looks great and I will try. BTW, does the issue also happen in iPHONE ? Thanks.謝謝

[@jujdementflare]

Hi Paul, your video has been more than helpful however i still have a problem regarding settings. I can’t find Micloopback anywhere on Zlink settings. It would mean a lot to me if you could point out to me where it is. Thanks!❤😊

[@kapokapobkn]

I did all that you do and in the first time it works great! but when I turn off the car and connect again the carplay (by usb) the problem come back, and of course the bluetooth is turned off

[@Luccibones]

Man I need your help, I’m pulling my hair out trying to figure out why I’m not getting sound from my unit, can you please help me. I get sound when I’m connected to my oem Bluetooth but no sound through unit on aux which what seicane says you get sound from

[@sparkz227]

Hi will this work in a 2023 vw tiguan? Hope so as it the exact problem i have with mine👍

[@michelbaumann]

Hi, when I use Carplay and want to make calls, it makes a loud rush which it makes inpossible to talk. Sound & Music works great with no issue. What could that be?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

You can check if your phone also connected to OEM Bluetooth or not ? If yes, disconnect the OEM Bluetooth connection. When using CarPlay, it not allow to use Bluetooth ( original car Bluetooth or android Bluetooth).

[@RocknTales]

That makes no sense. When using the call on Apple CarPlay people cant hear me well becuase is not connecting to the OEM microphone so what’s the point?

[@himanshupabbi409]

Thank you for this video. Everything works fine except the calls, when calling or receiving the call I have no audio and the the person on the other end can not hear me. Can you help me with the issue.

[@johnagresta4062]

Paul, I haave autokit wireless. in BMW M3 music works perfectly, text message works perfectly Siri talks to me through BMW Factory speakers, However I cannot send or recieve phone calls. I have deleted my phone from the OEM side. when I make a call from carplay the carplay screen is there but when it connects it jumps to OEM screen side and then no sound. wireless carplay works in text messages through factory speakers but phone does not. Have sound and touch screen does not work to answer or hang up. In factory setting Bluetooth is in android not BMW . Could dongal or head unit be bad? any input would be appriciated.

[@HifimaxOfficial]

Go to autokit , click setting , click advance settings, find the “ Car Audio Properties”, choose "compatible"

[@johnagresta4062]

Thank you so much

[@tsiko_1439]

Hi , you know where to find the code for the factory menu settings? I didn't have any key code in the package i received ! Thanks in advance !

[@Parkrandom-mrk]

it should be 8888

[@Parkrandom-mrk]

that’s what it was for me at least

[@Him0thyyy]

@@Parkrandom-mrkit actually worked for me, wow. How have you figured that one out then

[@MichaelWongW]

Thanks for the detailed video! I am having the same issue, however, my car does not have OEM bluetooth and cannot find what is conflicting. Any thoughts on where else to check? Thanks!

[@HifimaxOfficial]

In fact , with or without OEM Bluetooth is not the key thing, when you connect CarPlay or using the Bluetooth from Android screen ( android Bluetooth), you need to make sure : it is in AUX mode .

[@james684]

So you are connecting through FM transmitter? Go to phone and turn off the calls and media for the android auto device, it will still work have to do it every time you start it until a fix is out

[@HifimaxOfficial]

the sound go by AUX, Never by FM transmitter...@@james684

[@james684]

@@HifimaxOfficial I don't have aux, a new problem with android 14 has surfaced, the only way to get any sound is like I said above wether BT or FM transmitter

Hi paul, lovely video. I am using the mmi box for my 2018 bmw 335. It uses the evo unit but the issue for me is everything works perfectly apart from when someone calls me or i call someone I can hear them but they cannot hear me. Do you know what this could be?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

Check the microphone connection or settings. And when you using CarPlay ( from MMI box ), the phone not connected to original car Bluetooth

[@muhammadchaka4142]

@@HifimaxOfficial okay so I need to be connected to the original car Bluetooth?

[@andrestyle13]

Hi Paul, nice video! I have a similar issue with my car, I’m using a carlinkit dongle and I can listen music perfectly, but I cannot hear anything when someone calls me. Do you have any idea how to fix it? Thanks in advance!

[@HifimaxOfficial]

There is a setting in the “ autokit “, before connected the CarPlay , you can click “ autokit “ setting icon, inside , or have a phone type , you should set as “ compatible “, it will be ok

[@andrestyle13]

Hi Paul, unfortunately I put the compatible option but I still cannot hear the phone calls. Do you have any other suggestions?

[@elfsars]

Great video. Very easy to follow. But my mic background noise quality is very loud eventhough i follow your recommendation to use mic gain volume between 15-20. Is there any way I can use my MIC OEM when making a call using carplay?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

It can not use original MIC for CarPlay phone calls

Hello; how can i use oem microphone without connect the oem bluetooth ? I dont want to connect microphone extra.. Is it possible?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

The new model now can use OEM microphone

[@marcoanticoli667]

Are you using an external microphone or oem microphone?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

In this video I am using built in microphone ( Android microphone, not OEM microphone)

[@joea1746]

Great video! My issue is exactly like yours. I can hear music, send messages on Carplay. However, if I get a call and answer by touching screen I cannot hear caller. However, caller can hear me. But when I get a call and answer via steering wheel button I can hear caller fine. I can make calls via voice command too. So, I'm okay answering calls via steering wheel button.

[@uiri4100]

I have a meecedes ML 350 my headunit 662, every time android auto starts I have to shut off calls on FCS bluetooth to be able to answer the calls on OEM bluetooth that is also connected since is better quality than the headunit. Is there a better way to do this so I can aswer the calls through car OEM And still have android auto on headunit ?

[@RobertSanchez-d6w]

I followed your instructions on how to connect my iPhone 15 pro max to car play on my android car head unit. music plays clear navigation works and can hear destination instructions clear. I can see my text and can make calls, the person I call can hear me but I cannot hear them through my car speakers. What do you thank the fix is?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

You using the built in CarPlay Zlink ? Or using external CarPlay adapter?

[@RobertSanchez-d6w]

I am using the built in CarPlay Zlink. The unit came with an external adapter that hooks into the harness via a 2.5 audio plug that I plugged into the factory installed car play usb plug. I have a Mercedes 2018 GLC 300 . I recently upgraded from a XS pro iPhone to the iPhone 15. I had no issues with CarPlay with older phone.

[@HifimaxOfficial]

You can disable the OEM Bluetooth connection, while using the Carplay, it not allow the phone connected to OEM Bluetooth. @@RobertSanchez-d6w

you can check the setting of Zlink (carplay）app, in the setting, there is one option call "MIC Loopback", you should set to "none"

I've successfully erased the Bluetooth device, but the handle button is set to Android Bluetooth, so why not?

I don’t clear what you want to ask, maybe you can write more details.

[@RednGold13]

So is car play not connecting via Bluetooth? So am I okay just to turn off Bluetooth ok my phone? And Car play will still work?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

after connected, it can turn off the bluetooth, but first must pair the bluetooth , then it change to a wifi siginal (must turn on your wifi in the phone).

[@Lee-sx6zv]

Your videos are great!! When i receieve a phone call on my android auto it takes me to the android phone call screen and not the android auto phone screen. How can i sort this? Because when my phone call has ended it tries to boot zlink up and sometimes it doesnt work. I want my phone calls to come through android auto on zlink not the android headset screen (black background and red phone symbol )

[@HifimaxOfficial]

I have few experience in android phone, when I check my iPhone, click “ notifications “ / “ iPhone “ , in the below, it have a option call “ CarPlay “, I set to “ on”, that means : when any phone calls coming , it allow the “notification “ show on “ CarPlay “ mode, you can take a check your android phone, to see if any options similar like this , allow the notification show on “ android auto”…

[@blkedge220]

I have this problem. When I'm using android auto maps and someone calls me the headunit displays the call on top of android auto and I can't see the maps till the call is finished

[@HifimaxOfficial]

when making the calls, the calls is priority， this is the design , just like, when you reverse the car, the backup camera or parking system is priority, that is the design.@@blkedge220

[@blkedge220]

No but when I use the real android auto on my work van. It put the call info at the side or the bottom of the screen and you can still use the maps.

no need for microphone installation? i can hear who calls me but not hearing me i have not install microphone

Our model with built in microphone, no need to install. If you not heard well, you can check the “ call volume “ setting and “ mic gain “ in factory setup menu .

[@NickthaGeek]

When I remove oem bluetooth.... and use zlink ( android auto) my music stutters constantly. Ive tracked it down to zlink being attached to android via wifi link and it keeps trying to connect to Bluetooth. Switching on and off. If I turn Bluetooth OFF the music and maps work perfectly. But then I cannot recieve calls! Any Ideas what is causing this?

[@HifimaxOfficial]

I don't met this case in my side. when I connect the Carplay, i can disable the OEM Bluetooth, the sound of music and everything is working fine. what is your car model? The Android GPS version?

[@NickthaGeek]

@HifimaxOfficial i can disable the oem bluetooth. Thats not the issue. Im not connected to the oem bluetooth. My issue is zlink using the android bluetooth. When zlink opens it uses bluetooth. Then, once open switches to android wifi direct link. But stays connected to the android bluetooth for calls. For some reason, zlink doesnt like this and permanently stutters in musoc on android auto until I disable the bluetooth link to zlink. Once I disable the bluetooth link android auto works flawlessly. ( although I lose ability to take calls because of lack of bluetooth. )
