Is there a specific cable I should be using for Android Auto? I've noticed every time the phone is plugged in, the Android auto would stop once a while, as if the cable is loose and disconnected from the phone, but you can see the phone is still being charged, I've tried with 3 different cables, one from Amazon, one factory Samsung, one random ones I found in my kids' room.

Might be your phone's port...might be too loose. Any data-transferring cable should work.

Try using another OEM cable, I tried using an aftermarket cable on my oneplus 7pro and was experiencing same issue in my mustang. I was using an aftermarket cable so I switched to OEM cable and issue went away. I have been doing a lot research due to non connection media issue and found media ports frequently go bad also. In my case it was the radio
