And you’re done! Now, let’s move on to the next step which I followed.
#2. Method 2: Changing USB Cable:
As you already know, the Samsung Galaxy S23 supports USB 3.2. Therefore, you need to get an original USB 3.2 cable from an online or offline store. After connecting my S23 device using the new USB 3.2 cable, the issue got resolved.
#3. Method 3: Get one Wireless Android Auto Car Adapter:
I haven’t bought this wireless Android Auto Car adapter because changing the USB cable worked for me. If none of the above-mentioned methods worked for you, you can simply choose a wireless AA adapter, which will turn your wired connection into wireless.
