You may very well use it safely but many other people certainly do not

I mean if you look at it that way anyone just using a car is a security risk at that point.


It is not about texting at all. Just stupid that you can not properly control some music.


That sounds interesting. Strange that their is only a option for wireless aa though.


He is also using it with maps which doesn’t work with Bluetooth. Steering wheel allows scrolling true the current playlist not select others. Voice control is more then useless it for some reason can not get a single word right and makes a mess of things.

I have also seem more complicated fix attempts by tricking a parking break sensor or something but that isn’t possible with this car (Audi etron)


Can Android auto “safety break” be disabled somehow?
Hello all! We have a car that supports android auto wired (Not wireless) When my dads phone is connected and someone is scrolling true spotify it keeps coming up with a safety break every few seconds or so. Is their some way to disable this without rooting the device he is using a Pixel 7? My phone does not have this issue and i can scroll all day long without it coming up but i am using a P7P with Graphene OS so i suspect it is some kind of permission AA doesn't have in my case. I get that the safety break is supposed to be a "feature" to keep your eyes in the road. in practice it does the opposite as you are looking at the screen waiting for it to pass so you can go on with the scrolling.

One of the best Roms for a Pixel is Grapheneos. Personally I use a Pixel 7 pro with it and it works great.


I use grapheneos on A P7 pro. Banking apps work fine because the bootloader gets locked with grapheneos. This is what most banking apps would complain about. Also if it for some reason requires google play services this is available too in a sandboxes way.


Most likely you could have restored it by installing the launcher back with adb or worst case reset the device. That will bring back all apps as well. Unless you have a rooted phone and removed the apps that way.


Factory reset upgrade prevents a reset by a thief

This is such a annoyance I hat this happen on a tablet once. Didn’t know the login of it anymore and i hat to do some trickery to get it reset.
