So something happened to my truck and I got an update somewhere, all my versions look the same (to my feeble memory), but my Android Auto refuses to connect. Removed phone, re added, multiple times AA just won't connect. On the phone interface I "connect" AA with the button, says it's connected, but then pops that error and disconnects, rebooted phone, bla bla bla, etc

My park assist won't turn off at all ... I'm not moving, I'm in park and can't get these to turn off.

And it looks like my screen has changed layout somehow.
I don't really recall what it looked like before but.l it looks different.

I usually have all my updates disabled but when Ruged and I were working on the truck a few weeks ago, I forgot to turn them back off..... :(

Try the reboot of the unit? Power button and ffwd hold for 10 seconds I think it is. Might work?

After one of my updates my android phone doesn't even work. All I get is a lot of static, and screeching noise, dealer say its my phone, even after it connected perfectly to another f150 sitting in there service bay. Works fine in every other vehicle I try, just not mine. Really disappointing, other than that I love the truck, 2021 PB.

See my thread: https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/ota-update-killed-wireless-app-projection.22452/post-430883

Check under Settings / Connections / Wireless App Projection - can you enable this? If not, that is the reason that your phone won't connect wirelessly. Happened to me with recent update, now Android Auto (and Apple Car Play) only work if connected via USB
Did a BMS reset lastnight, hopped in my truck this morning and was going to check this but got this popup this morning.

This isnt Ford, (I dont think), Spotify maybe? Maybe some update was in limbo and finished, cuz now my Android Auto is working. I forgot to check Park Assist sensors again and will check that later
