Xiaomi phone users started anticipating the HyperOS 2 update alongside Android 15 after the official announcement in early November. The upgrade was planned to arrive for the Xiaomi 14T series phones first, but instead, the Xiaomi 14 received the upgrade. Perhaps there was an issue that needed sorting out, but it does not seem the delay has done any good. Those running the Android 15-based HyperOS 2 build report that Android Auto broke after the upgrade.
According to reports from multiple users, especially Xiaomi 14T Pro, getting Android Auto to show on the infotainment system has been impossible since the Android 15-based HyperOS 2 update. Interestingly, everyone is experiencing the same issue, yet the company has not acknowledged the bug. The latest weekly HyperOS bug report did not mention the problem, and we believe developers are now aware of it. You can report the Android Auto break issue using the link here.
One of the most reported Android Auto issues has to be the connection, which is the case this time, but the new HyperOS 2 build seems to be the culprit. After installing the upgrade, users complain their phone is not detected by Android Auto, making it impossible to launch the app. Those who manage to get it detected are left with a black screen. That makes the app useless as they can not use Android Auto on the car’s infotainment system.
How to fix Android Auto broken on Xiaomi 14T Pro
Broken connection has always been an issue with Android Auto, but HyperOS is the culprit this time. That is because only Xiaomi phones seem to be experiencing the bug, which makes us believe it is an issue with the company’s operating system. Also, those who downgraded to previous Android Auto builds cannot get it working. Hence, uninstalling a recent update will not resolve the problem unless you move back to Android 14, but that is a long process. It is better to avoid the HyperOS 2 update if you have not installed it yet.
