Android auto

[FlavellPlayz]

In android auto since updating to 8.5 it does not show the phones signal or battery icon in bottom left. Also android auto will not auto change to phones music being played through car will just keep playing DAB and have tested on multiple cars to make sure it was the phone. But these issues only started happening after the beta update.

For me its just the signal icon. But having a look on some forums in an issue with Android Auto in general. Apparently due to them changing some of the icons its caused this glitch. I thought it was the beta until I looked it up

I am not able to see any 8.5 update yet on my s25 ultra, it still shows software is updated with latest i.e. 8.0. Can anyone suggest how to solve this problem?
