I need to start or stop Android Auto Head unit wireless server, but couldn't find it anywhere in the list of actions. Its located under "Setting > Advanced features > Android Auto > 3dot menu > start head unit server"

You might need to use UI interaction action to click unless there's an action in either Plugins or shortcuts

I'm pretty sure @Jacob L is right and the only way on an unrooted device this is possible is if you can automate a series of taps to click here automatically. Of course this will require the screen to be on and the device unlocked.

If your device is rooted. The following command (via the shell script action) may work, however I am not able to verify this:

am startservice -W com.google.android.projection.gearhead/com.google.android.projection.gearhead.companion.DeveloperHeadUnitNetworkService

Hi,
I couldn't find any solution for HeadUnit server start/stop, actually didn't work more on it after other people replies hwre that there's no solution for non rooted device.
I've set a Samsung SmartThings routine to enable/disable Wi-Fi Hotspot on changing the Car's Bluetooth connection, which works great, but I've to keep the AA server running always in the background. Hope it helps.

Oi,
Não consegui encontrar nenhuma solução para iniciar / parar o servidor HeadUnit, na verdade não funcionou mais depois que outras pessoas responderam que não há solução para dispositivos não enraizados.
Configurei uma rotina do Samsung SmartThings para ativar/desativar o ponto de acesso Wi-Fi ao alterar a conexão Bluetooth do carro, o que funciona muito bem, mas tenho que manter o servidor AA sempre funcionando em segundo plano. Espero que ajude.
