Google Has a Fix for Galaxy Phones]() Original publisher: [Read original article]() Author: TechRepublic Staff Published: 2026-11-04T09:38:03Z Content type: news Language: en Sources: [TechRepublic]() Topics: [Android Auto](), [Android](), [Google]() Tags: [android](), [android-17](), [android-auto](), [android-auto-troubleshooting](), [bluetooth](), [firmware](), [galaxy](), [galaxy-s24](), [galaxy-s25](), [galaxy-s26](), [galaxy-software-updates](), [google](), [guide](), [mobile](), [news](), [one-ui-9](), [operating-systems](), [samsung](), [samsung-galaxy](), [usb]() ### AI overview Google confirmed on Nov. 2 that a fix was rolling out for Android Auto connection failures reported after Galaxy phones received Android 17-based One UI 9. Users described failed or repeatedly dropping connections, including over USB; complaints involved Galaxy S26 and A55 devices, while one comparison found a One UI 9 S24 Ultra failing and a One UI 8.5 S25 Edge connecting. This suggests a possible software-related issue but does not establish its cause or prevalence. Google gave no delivery method, affected-device list, or completion date. While waiting, Samsung recommends restarting and updating the phone, clearing Android Auto's cache, and checking Bluetooth pairing. Samsung says One UI 8 defaults USB to charging only; select "Transferring files / Android Auto" from the USB notification. Google also recommends checking the cable and vehicle settings, restarting infotainment, and updating aftermarket receiver firmware. These checks may rule out common problems but are not confirmed fixes for the One UI 9 issue. ### Source excerpt Some Galaxy owners report failed connections even over USB. Google's fix is rolling out, but its delivery method and completion date remain unclear. The post Android Auto Not Connecting After One UI 9?

Home Assistant Green saw multiple successful attacks, including Yves Bieri's $30,000 win and a collision involving three previously known bugs; other entries describe unique bugs and collisions, with awards adjusted accordingly. Samsung Galaxy S26 entries include a Confused Deputy flaw, a remote exploit, and a later collision.

Samsung's Galaxy S26 will be attempted three separate times -- by Valsamaras/Ken Gannon (using Djini.ai)/Valsamara at 1:00 PM, Kyeongmin Kim at 3:15 PM, and PetoWorks at 5:30 PM -- worth watching since only the first successful demo claims the cash. Home Assistant Green is the day's most-attempted device, with five researchers scheduled to take a run at it. AI Infrastructure stays active with four attempts on tap (Dynamo, two at Chroma, two at Oracle's Autonomous AI Database), Wellness has just one attempt scheduled, and Printers see steady action with three separate attempts on the Lexmark CX532adwe.

Other attempts against Brother and Lexmark printers, a Garmin Index BPM, a Google Pixel 10, and Chroma failed within the time limit.
