This didn't really happen with the Andream firmware. Occasionally when running the Andream firmware, wireless AA would disconnect, but I'd go into the settings and disconnect/reconnect then would be prompted to start AA again. I've tried doing this in the custom firmware with the Bimmertech layout in wireless settings where I see my phone but when I click my phone to disconnect, nothing happens. If I toggle over I can delete my phone but I doubt that I'd want to do that.
I'd far prefer to use wireless AA but to do some testing with wired AA, I did find it more reliable, however if my phone bumps around, when connected, AA drops out and sometimes it will relaunch but if it doesn't other than disconnecting my phone and reconnecting, I haven't been able to figure out how to re-initiate AA. I don't know if this MMI unit is particularly finicky but when I've used a rental car that had stock AA, I've never had any issues with AA disconnecting, if my phone was bouncing around due to "spirited" driving. Do others have issues with wired AA disconnecting like this?
BTW I'm still having issues with Autolink seeming to conflict with wired AA, so that Autolink is simply unusable.

I'm glad that my Pixel does reliably auto connect to AA using V2 custom firmware, like you I cannot connect it manually by clicking on it in the Wireless Devices list like I could on V1.
Once connected however it is very reliable.
