Google rolling out Android Auto signal icon fix
Google is releasing a fix for an Android Auto bug that caused the cellular signal icon to disappear from some users' car screens for several weeks. The update, included in Android Auto version 17.8, is now rolling out in the stable channel. Not everyone will get the fix immediately, but it should arrive through normal updates—no beta sign-up needed. If you can't see the new version, check your app store for updates.
- Bug made signal icon vanish intermittently
- Android Auto 17.8 brings the fix
- Fix is in stable, not just beta
- Full rollout will take some time
