You guys can all thank me me for buying my RDX on Nov 2nd!

I told them " If AA doesn't come by Friday I'm bringing it back!" LMAO

Seriously congrats to all you peeps that have been waiting for so long. Personally I never really use it in my other car but to each his own.

Same here. I tried all methods, and it keeps saying it's up to date.

Does anyone know if AA works via Bluetooth or do we have to connect it via USB every time? I see online that AA can work through Bluetooth but not sure if that is available with the RDX yet?

That's what I thought. A little disappointing but hopefully that changes in a future update. Thanks.

You gotta add it manually from the main menu. When on homescreen, swipe to left screen. Add it to shortcuts.

You would need a new head unit that supports Android Auto wireless, which is still in its early stages. Android Auto wireless uses WiFi (since bluetooth isn't powerful enough to handle the bandwidth required of Android Auto/Carplay), but a downside to using it wirelessly would be that it would be a big battery drain on your phone. So an ideal situation would be to dock your phone on a wireless charger while using Android Auto wireless so that you wont have to worry about cables or plugging anything in. But that's another 2-3 yrs away from being the norm.
