I've completed what amounts to these steps with my Hyundai Elantra and the problem persists. It seems to have two problems. There is one where it regularly disconnects periodically, and another where it won't work at all when the phone is fully charged.
THis really is awful since I need Android Auto for work, and I need 5G for work... am I going to have to trade in my phone for something other than Samsung, because it appears that Samsung really doesn't care about this issue.
This worked for my 2019 Chevy Bolt and S10 phone. Note: you cannot uninstall Android Auto on the phone so you have to just delete the AA data on the phone.
