Hopefully that makes sense. Think of it like I'm looking for a charger that fits into a lighter socket. I want to plug my phone into it for high speed charging, and I also want to plug my car into it to provide a passthrough connection to my phone for Android Auto.


Edit: Or perhaps another option is maybe just getting a wireless dongle for the car that converts my wired into wireless Android Auto? I see some devices like this out there, but they look kinda gimmicky...
There should be cables that allow you do "split" so that you can send data one way and connect another charging another way. But those kinda suck.


Does your phone have no ability to do Qi charging?

Plug the qi charger to the cigarette lighter and then wired to do Android Auto.
