Although there really shouldn’t be an option to connect where phone will overheat and Siri will not work!!
iphone 7 software version 12.0.1. No wireless or connected Carplay issues, never had to look at data module setting or anything. Wonder if it’s iphone X for some reason. What software version are you running?

Not locked to the carrier, locked as in you haven't entered the PIN/password/Face ID/Fingerprint and you're at the lock screen. There have been security concerns about Siri allowing access to user data, so it's possible to disable Siri on the lock screen. Since you say that you don't use Siri, it doesn't matter for you.

Ok, I see. I misunderstood the locking thing. As I said, I will try siri, and see if I also get the issue, and will report back.

Are you referring to the audi MMI 5g network?? I thought carplay was through bluetooth? Confused...

i was able to deactivate mine via the audi control panel under phone settings.
Dont recall exact header names as out of town now but if needed I can verify asa I return. Please let me know if you figure it out and if it solves your problem. Are you from Canada as well?

I have iphone 7 and version 12.0.1 and am afraid to update my software since Carplay and Hey Siri work flawlessly.

Has anyone had any issues when using the radio and suddenly it switching automatically to car play on a wireless connection. Pressing the radio button solves the issue but I wonder why this happens intermittently

This has happened to me. Usually after just starting the car and once carplay connects it switches over. Typically if I've been using music via Carplay when I exited the car on the prior trip.
