CarPlay is not starting on my phone. It used to - that's the weird part. The T2C worked a couple of days ago, just laggy as heck and a bit finicky. But now:
- Car connects to T2C via wifi
- T2C connects to phone via hotspot (intermittently)
- Phone connects to car via bluetooth - it never transfers to wifi though
- Phone connects to T2C via bluetooth
The odd part is that even when it does connect to the phone's hotspot, I can't browse anywhere using the car's browser. Is it really connected?
I disconnected all bluetooth to my phone, except for: the car, the T2C, and the car's phone key (one of the jumbled messes of letters and numbers)
Admittedly, I haven't. My phone is working fine otherwise - zero other issues, and it'd be a bridge to far for me to have to blast the entire thing, for CarPlay. I did reset network settings though, to no avail. Between it working via bluetooth tethering before, working with my wife's phone, and my having tried two units now, it's almost certainly something odd going on specifically with my phone - I just can't justify the time-sink that is wiping and restoring the phone. Something always gets lost, and it's a half-day process. Sad thing is that I'm in IT -- I'd roll my eyes so hard at a user who wouldn't have taken this step.
Edit: ah screw it. I’ll think about doing a restore. Last time I did, I managed to wipe my eSIM, leaving myself dead in the water
