If no Android Auto by then, I'll have a different car. Can't do this.
Glad someone else besides me was able to get the dongle to work
Yes, I also saw issues 1, 2, and 3.
On 1, I mostly use Musicolet to play songs stored on my phone and there is no lag there, I have seen some lag with Amazon music but not too bad.
On 2, I have set up AA to always run in night mode but more often than not, the map stays in day mode. Noticed the map turns into night mode at random times not matching actual day or night time. Sent an email to the the dongle support team, so far no response.

They say insanity is doing the same thing wishing for different results. How about changing Thursday to Tuesday for a week and see what happens?

My guess: Not a chance. I'll bet that all the energy on features and problem solving is going into the Gravity. Hopefully, some will carry back to the Air, after the fact.
I tried to email them but it bounced. Sent an message on Amazon and awaiting response...Glad someone else besides me was able to get the dongle to work

On 1, for you the lag is dependent on the player? For me the music player in Android auto displays the correct and current info, but the lucid display(right side of instrument cluster) would refresh at a very slow rate(once every few mins perhaps). But it's not consistent, sometimes it would refresh properly for a while then starts lagging.
On 2, I find that I need to open Android auto settings on phone and toggle it out of night mode and back into night mode every time, which I guess it's another bug that Google doesn't bother to fix
One more thing, no multi touch zoom for navigation. But I guess that could be a carplay limitation.

Oh AA...where art thou? Is it Fall 2024 yet?
I use AA a little bit differently. Because I prefer full screen maps, I use Lucid's native Here app instead. That lets me to use Musicolet, Amazon Music, Spotify, and others on full size AA instead of split screen. In those renderings, there is not much lag but perhaps lag is also app specific. Naturally, streaming apps should have a longer lag than something like Musicolet that plays MP3s stored on the phone. I don't use YouTube music.
Yes, I had also noticed that but it is a little too annoying to toggle the switch on and off thru the phone every time. I don't believe this is a Google bug, my phone consistently runs in dark mode when I use the built-in native AA on Porsche Panamera and Maserati Ghibli. More than likely, this is an issue with the dongle. I wonder if this issue shows up with CarlinKit Ai Box. Does anybody know? @hydbob, or others, can you shed some light?
Got an updated zip from the seller but after updating it it seems like nothing was fixed. The multiplay version is still the same. Sent a follow up and will post here if there's any updatesGlad someone else besides me was able to get the dongle to work

Show us the connection to the big screen (HDMI?) and we'll do it ourselves.
Let me know if you see a fix for the night mode toggle.

A late reply on this, but I finally did an evening drive with the Carlinkit. It automatically changes from day to night mode around sunset time.
Reading through the posts on the Rutherford thread, looks like it was confirmed that AA will come in August. Unfortunate for me as this lease is up in June- was really hoping to see the implementation on this Air. Hoping it's available in gravity. <Sigh>

Nothing's guaranteed until it ships. Anything can happen along the way.
