Description

Hi all,
I cloned the project and updated the modules for API 33.
Then I selected a module (e.g. helloworld.automotive) and run it on a mobile (Motorola g14 - API 33).

The mobile show me a black window with two messages:
- System update required
- Verify/Check updates availability

If I press the second message, Google Play shows me the 'Google Automotive App Host' + Your device is not compatible with this version.

If I try to run the helloworld.mobile a message appears: **Default Activity not found**
Actually the Activity is missing into the AndroidManifest.xml ..

I'd like to run the app on the mobile and see it on the display of the car.
Which version achieve that??

How can I solve the problems, please?
PS: I'm using the Desktop Head Unit emulator

Research direction

Start by reproducing the helloworld.automotive and helloworld.mobile modules on the reported API 33 device and Desktop Head Unit emulator. Inspect the AndroidManifest.xml for helloworld.mobile and compare the module configuration with the automotive sample. Done means the mobile sample launches without “Default Activity not found” and the automotive sample runs on the intended car display without the reported update or compatibility errors.
