PIWIS 3 Coding Retrofit and Feature Request

TWO QUESTIONS! 
1. I tried these settings, and can connect to the car's wi-fi (2.4 GHz) BUT the track precision doesn't seem to be able to connect to the app. FWIW, I never specced the original NAV option.
2. Also, I activated Android Auto, but after changing these settings in PIWIS, the Apps Icon is now present and when I try to connect my phone via USB, it tries to connect to the PCM instead of activating AA - anyone have any idea how to revert this?

You can also use Carplay or AA to start the TPA on your PCM.
2. How did you activate AA? Did you use PIWIS or MIB AIO? The App icon is for the PCM Services which you can see from My Porsche App.
Does AA start without being connected to the car Wi-Fi?

See bolded responses below.
1. Once you've connected to the car Wi-Fi, start the TPA from your phone. The BT will need to be turn on too.
You can also use Carplay or AA to start the TPA on your PCM.
I tried again with Wi-Fi and BT activated, and although I can connect to the vehicle's WLAN, the app can't seem to connect (the blue icon just continually spins). FWIW, this happens whether or not the glove compartment USB is connected.
2. How did you activate AA? Did you use PIWIS or MIB AIO? The App icon is for the PCM Services which you can see from My Porsche App. Does AA start without being connected to the car Wi-Fi?
I activated AA with Sima. FWIW, I never specced or activated Carplay.
Currently, when I connect on the the apps icon, I just get a screen that tells me to connect the PCM Connect App (it looks like it's call My Porsche now). I loaded My Porsche and logged in, but wouldn't let me proceed without entering my address and other biographical information, which I haven't done bc I was in a rush this morning. Without doing this, it wouldn't allow me to register my car on the app. I'll get around to completing the My Porsche stuff later to see if it makes a difference.

Well, I was able to re-activate my AA icon w/ the MIB AIO method, but still can't connect to the PTPA (yeah, I know they're not related, but I was hoping some idiosyncratic relationship might reverse things for me).

If you used AIO, your WLAN Hotspot should be enabled too. Go to your phone and connect to the WLAN Hotspot and car BT. After that start TPA

Reverse mirror tilt I miss on my spyder.. Ihad it on my 981 and it saved my bacon many times. the reverse camera is nice, but seems silly its missing on my spyder. so after combing through all this... it sounds like its not a possibility for cars with. the bucket memory seats.

Because I had Sima activate my AA initially, it altered the the initial firmware, and somehow this interfered with the Track App connecting via wifi (which I initially activated through PIWIS).
I then ran MIB AIO but missed some crucial files and steps, but after downloading the proper patch files AND running the "Fix SVM Error" protocol, everything works as should be!

Happy to say I finally made it work!

Good to know you finally got it working. We successfully used MIB AIO on my '22 GTS and my buddies '19 Cayman S and had no problem connecting PTPA. My buddy tracks regularly and is looking forward to using it soon. Glad to hear you got yours sorted too.
