​​​​​​I didn't think you needed a cable for Android auto. Thought that was just apple car play. Also confused why it is still saying v 1.0???

did it actually show that it was updating in the top black bar/notification?

You need to hook a USB cable to your phone to the USB port under the radio.

You also need to install the Android Auto app from the Google Play store

Yeah now that I think about it, my phone didn't come with a USB cable, it's one of those new Android ones that have no up or down.
