Last Sunday I was happy to pick up my used Grenny close by Hamburg.
I had to drive home for about 250 miles.
I was convinced that I just jump in the truck and connect my Samsung phone to the Ineos system.
The connection through Bluetooth worked out fine, I could use the phone to contact my wife in our BMW in front of me with a working SatNav.
The Ineos system told me I should use an USB-C connector to get access to Android Auto, but I did not have a wire on board of unknown car.
In the middle arm rest compartment You can find an USB-C and an USB-A port.
So I stopped at a gas station on the highway and bought a very pricey USB-A to USB-C wire.
But, nothing changed, in the end my phone showed that it is connected through Android Auto, but obviously the truck did not know about that.
It took me almost 5 hours on my trip home, to check every part in the menu of the system, what could be wrong. In the end I gave up.
In the evening at home I checked the operating instructions the little blue book.
Here you can find a point that says both USB ports, A and C are able to charge a device and will transfer data to the main system....
A friend of mine uses an Iphone, he told me, he wires it up to the USB-A port and does not have any issues.
Next day I took the last option I had and i purchasesd a USB-C to USB-C wire.
I pluged it in and everything work immediatly.
I was annoyed about me that I did not believe the system and bought the right wire in the first step!
