A3 and Google AOA mode

jonsmirl · Post time 2018-11-3 09:58:17

Google AOA mode does not function on the A1 Pro. I'm hoping that it will work on the A3.
https://source.android.com/devices/accessories/protocol

There is a tiny program that will check if the mode functions correctly.

When this program fails on the A1 Pro, you will see this in your Linux host logs...

Google AoA mode is used by docking stations with external speakers. It is also used by older cars which pre-date Android Auto.

Unfortunately AoA mode is still broken in the A3. This is a bug in the MTK kernel driver for USB audio. The dock is failing to open the USB audio protocol over the USB port. This works on other Mediatek chips, of the phones I have only the MT6739 fails. Our application is a device test farm, redirecting the audio over a USB audio connection is how we test the sound output of the device under test. Because of this bug we can't run any tests on Umidigi A3 or A1.

Can you please forward this over to your software developers....

When the kernel for the A3 was built, did USB audio support get turned off accidentally?
This might not be working simply because support for it was turned off.

It is supposed to be turned on:
jonsmirl@ares:~/aosp/mtk8/kernel-4.4/arch/arm64/configs$ grep SND_USB_AUDIO *
evb6771_64_emmc_debug_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
evb6771_64_emmc_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
evb6771_64_emmc_mhl_debug_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
evb6771_64_emmc_mhl_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
k39tv1_64_bsp_debug_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
k39tv1_64_bsp_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y
k63v1_64_bsp_debug_defconfig:CONFIG_SND_USB_AUDIO=y

Turning on USB audio enables SND_PCM

config SND_USB_AUDIO
      tristate "USB Audio/MIDI driver"
      select SND_HWDEP
      select SND_RAWMIDI
      select SND_PCM
      select BITREVERSE

These #Ifdef then turn on the AOA USB audio support.

jonsmirl@ares:~/aosp/mtk8/kernel-4.4/drivers/usb/gadget$ grep PCM android.c
#ifdef CONFIG_SND_PCM
#ifdef CONFIG_SND_PCM

The audio interface is listed in the USB descriptors, when our code tries to turn it on, it errors out with -EPIPE. That would happen if the code in android.c was turned off by the IFDEFs and not built. This is code should always be turned on except in something like a watch with no USB audio.
