The bottom left doesn't work steadily. It wont stay on when i use my wireless charger.Any of them
Gotcha. You may want to get that serviced. They should all work as charging, and data transfer for Android Auto/Car PlayThe bottom left doesn't work steadily. It wont stay on when i use my wireless charger.
The only port that will power my charger is the one in the console

Yeah you may have missed it. A 2 part question and a 2 part what if. No attempting to double charge it. But more like plugged in for AA and laying on the wireless charger/holder.I must be missing something - are you plugging in your android into the left-lower USB port and placing another phone on the wireless pad at the same time?
Any port with the USB 'Trident' Logo will run AAuto / Carplay. I don't know of any Androids that can simultaneously charge on a wireless pad + be plugged in (as the port supplies power)

As Stony0604 said they should all work.
The only stipulation is that even though there are 4 ports there are only 2 'channels'. Channel 1 and Channel 2 each have a USB-A and USB-C port. You can plug something into each port and all 4 items with charge but only 1 port per channel will connect for data.
The owners manual says that the USB-C will be the data port and the USB-A will be charge only but on my truck whichever one you plug in first is the data port for that channel.
But as far as the truck/phone is concerned, you ARE attempting to double charge it, so it drops the wired connection. No need for the pad if you're already plugged in for AA, it will also charge thru the wired connection at the same time (and faster than the wireless pad too).Yeah you may have missed it.

Hope I cleared my post up without sounding rude or disrespectful.

For those with the center console those are channels 3 (driver's side) and 4 (passenger's side). Channel 3 is a data/charging port and channel 4 is charging only. Both of those channels also each have a USB-A and USB-C plug like the front 2 channels.3 channels if you count the one on the back of the center console (certain trims I'm sure - my Rebel's back seat has one 'data' pair and one non-data pair of USBA/C
I plug my Note 8 into USB-A port 1 and then put my phone on the wireless charger. The light turns blue telling me it is charging on the pad. I don't have issues with music cutting out with it plugged in and on the wireless pad.No worries! Yeah sometimes I don't english good; it's been a long week lol.
if you're placing the same plugged in phone on the wireless charger pad, it's likely the phone is cutting the wired connection.
I also use android auto with a note 10+ in the lower left port (from what I was told, the USB A and USB C ports are the same data line in each column). I don't have a wireless charger in the truck but do at my desk - I learned that the pad causes the phone to drop the data connection if you're using the wired connection and happen to place it on the pad
Got it. Makes more sense now.Higher trim levels have the wireless charging pad where you would normally set your phone (as the driver). You have to plug in the phone for CarPlay so you get the "double charging" issue.
That will be solved with the 2021 trucks with wireless CarPlay.
For me, it keeps the phone out of the way along with the cord.But why does anyone do that (plug in & wireless charge)?
Not bashing, just genuinely curious. When the phone is plugged in, it's already charging, and at a faster rate than any 'fast' wireless charger.
I get the ease of wireless charging by just throwing it on the pad. That's how I charge my phone at home. But it seems pointless if you are bothering to plug it in too.
