I'm having the same problem. Did you ever find a way to get it fixed?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pmi:
Thank You.

Go into Kies, Tools -> Preferences, unselect "Run Samsung Kies automatically when a device is connected", save the change, close out of Kies, and then restart ODIN 3. Try flashing now.

Thank You.

disabled Kies and problem solved
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] marsisabar:
I've been struggling with this problem for the past 6 hours. Turns out my main laptop has ALL usb3 ports, even though they are not blue.

So it looks like ODIN has a huge problem with USB3. I tried everything, with Kies, without Kies, reinstall drivers, force drivers.

Finally I switched to my work laptop which has USB2 as well as Windows 7. I ONLY installed the USB drivers but never installed KIES on this laptop. And ODIN worked perfectly fine. (Also note that I have Windows 10 on my other laptop, which wouldn't work. That may or may not be part of it).

Anyway for those who come across this thread, banging their heads against ODIN, I suggest finding an older PC with USB2 and Windows 7 and NEVER install KIES. I have a feeling it doesn't remove the drivers even after you uninstall it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jiboory:
IT was Kies. ODIN worked after closing Kies (from the task manager).

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] ZainoPampa:
My solution was to uninstall the Kies and everything was perfect. I installed all the ROM's that I wanted to install. The problem was the Kies, which did not let open the port. I installed Samsung drivers and you're done. Everything was done.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] somehowmynamewastaken:
I had the same Problem. For me it was a broken bootoader. I did the follwing. Start Odin, go into download mode on my phone, connected it to my pc. Then i only loaded the BL-File into odin. Then as soon as i hit start, i pushed volume down, power and home/bixby, so my phone would restart into download mode again. then hit start on odin again. this time he was able to flash the bootloader. from there i was able to flash new firmware, which was impossible before. i had to wipe my whole phone from in recovery mode, but from there it started and set itself up again. On youtube you can find a video called: Galaxy S8/S8+ Odin FAIL, BOOTLOOP, BOOTLOADER FIX! from wckd which explains the whole process

I have the same problème. Any solution ???
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] moxaa:
For people who don't have kies but still have this: this might be the lack of support of usb 3.0 (eg typec-typec cable), try to use a USB 2.1 port.

[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowpeezy:
Has anyone used/seen this case before?

Saw it on eBay listed as grey/white hybrid case.

I've been pretty happy with my NGP Incipio case, but this looks interesting.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
I bought two of these cases, one black and one white. I love them! Only thing is that the white one gets dirty really quickly and the hole for the 3.5mm jack might require some modification for some plugs to fit.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowpeezy:
What is the white part made of? Rubber?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] PL0X_Kleiner:
Link?

Also, i cant find a black one anywhere.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iArtisan:
Do they cover up any of the buttons? And is there any lip?

-edit-

I think that's it anway
[T-Mobile LG G2x] FatalityBoyZahy:
S***! Sorry! Haha, I thought you were talking about another Hybrid case for the G2x, I originally posted from my phone using the XDA app, so the image wasn't showing up properly.

Buttttttt, I have a friend who has this EXACT case for her iPhone. It doesn't cover up any buttons but the rubber part isn't exactly the snuggest fit on the phone. It's worth a shot, especially considering how cheap it is.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iArtisan:
Placed an order a few hours ago, supposed to be here by saturday.

Will keep you guys updated.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Gameler:
eh, i had a white one, had to modify for headphone jack and charger and its made kind of cheaply. worked nice for the time i had it though.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iArtisan:
Damnit man I wish you told me that before I ordered, would have just gone with the Trident Perseus.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowpeezy:
Let me know how it is when you get it. I'm still interested in it.

Sent from the future.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] barqers:
Same here. I just ordered some perforated cases, but this looks neat as well.

If the quality is any good I'd be interested. Can't go wrong with lots of cases :P Variety is good!
[T-Mobile LG G2x] iArtisan:
Hybrid Case Review

I have been using this case for a full day now and it's great!

The case is actually two pieces, an inner silicone (which can be used easily by itself) and a harder shell on the outside.

This is why I'll be comparing it to the Trident Aegis, which is the case I'm coming from.

Much like the Aegis it covers all of the ports... except for the bottom speakers and hdmi (which the Aegis does cover.)

I got the white one and it looks really good with the gray shell.

Now the case is built somewhat cheap, especially since it's only $10. However, I think it goes face to face with the $25 Trident Aegis one.

What I like about this case over Aegis, and the reason why I won't be going back is because of how light and thin it keeps the case, unlike the fat Aegis.

Highly recommended. I might upload pics later if I have time.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] lowpeezy:

Very Nice case :):)

[T-Mobile LG G2x] edekalil:
I had gotten two, one was purple rubber with black plastic with holes and one was blue rubber and purple plastic with holes. I swapped the plastic with holes parts for an all purple for LSU theme and a black and blue one. I did notice the hole where you plug in the charger may need to be altered or just remove the case when charging, it is a little tight. But they are worth the 9 dollars each.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] VMSAWRSMSZ006Z:
I seem to have lost the radios on my phone, I think.

I got the Bionic Lapdock and couldn't get the Bionic to work properly with it. I had alot of frozen apps using titanium backup so I figured I'd start unfreezing some apps to get it to work. For some reason I couldn't unfreeze everything. The app would and take forever to restore the app. I got impatient and ran the Bionic Pathsaver 1. After that I lost my signal, i first tried reseating the sim. Nothing. Now I tried the RealeaseRootv2.1 for windows and the baseband is still unknown.

Can somebody please help! :(
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eye__dea:
What update were you on? 902?

What update did you go back to when you tried using pathsaver?

More than likely...your going to need to use RSDlite and the 902 fxz to get the radio back.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] VMSAWRSMSZ006Z:
I actually used RSDlite to get back to 5.8.886 thinking I could get back to 902 using the OTAs the update fails every time I try to run it so it looks like I have to RSDlite into 902.Thanks for the help.Though I still don't understand why the update keeps failing. Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eye__dea:
Try a factory reset and see if it fixes it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] projektorboy:
Just FXZ straight to .902

---------Original Thread---------

I recently picked up an Appradio 2 from Pioneer. The premise is good but the excecution is poor IMO.

The app seems overly complicated and quite frankly pisses me off the more i use it.

Now what i would like to know is if the app can be modified to just offer control of the MHL mirror. That would be ideal for me. At points within the app it allows you to control the screen via the touch screen on the appradio 2. Then at certain places it doesn't allow any touch or only touch portions of the screen.

I have very minimal knowledge of programming for android so i cannot tackle it myself. Im also willing to start a bounty for this as well if someone shows some interest.

Here is the apk: Link
[Android General] MKVFTW:
Anyone up for the task?
[Android General] skatin707:
I just got one of these earlier today. I was very excited at the "Android" support. I haven't installed it yet (buying a washer and dryer takes forever!), but I hope to do it tomorrow.

Did you do your install or did you have somebody do it for you?

Also, have you messed with navigation through phone at all? What cables does it need? I know it needs an MHL for my SGS2, but where can I find the cable that plugs into the back of the unit?
[Android General] MKVFTW:
Its a simple straight forward install. The cable in the back is a full size HDMI that comes out of the mhl adapter.
[Android General] skatin707:
Gotcha. I need to pick one up for my sgs2.

Where did you put your nav antenna and your microphone?
[Android General] MKVFTW:
The best place for you will be wildly different but I put my mic in the factory VW location and the GPS inside the dash
[Android General] muzicman82:
So I was really excited about getting this, but it sounds like everyone that's gotten it has been disappointed. I'm interested in whether anyone really likes it.
[Android General] skatin707:
Mine ended up being broken (non-working bluetooth).

Returned it and got a dnx7180 with nav and good ****.
[Android General] MKVFTW:
As was i and to be honest i am sort of disappointed. However, the potential is there for this unit. I believe with the right modes to the app and/or unit it will be GREAT!

The system is similar as the MIMICS system. It mirrors the display of the phone via MHL and uses bluetooth to communicate screen touches. If the app can be modded so that it allows you to navigate to more than just the appradio app then it would be perfect.

Someone that knows what they are doing should be able to mod the app accordingly and unlock the true potential of this device.
[Android General] skatin707:
I'm sure they will hear the complaints and make Appradio 3 or 4 better. I will definitely give it another try then. The lack of compatible android apps is disappointing.
[Android General] Appradiomodder:
The 'appradio2' from pioneer is just starting and is getting more and more android fans every day.

Altho this is a device with great potential, the user experience is indeed a little dissapointing.

Where should I begin?

Well, first the SPH-DA100 officially only supports android 3.2 and not even all phones running it too (a list of compatible devices is @ the Pioneer website)

I successfully connected my Galaxy Nexus i9250 (running ICS 4.0.4 since this weekend) and it works!

The perfect picture for this device should be when you can control your whole phone from the screen of the appradio. For now, only approved apps can be controlled.

I follow MKVFTW when he says that someone who knows what he's doing should rewrite the apk. but for now we can only wait for Pioneer to make another version.

I do not doubt that Pioneer will wait for an appradio 3 or 4 to make things better

The current hardware can handle it.

Or does everyone here buys a new phone when the next android version comes out???

I managed to get a custom background wallpaper on the device, that is a start isn't it?

*link not allowed yet --> search youtube for appradiomodder

Let's keep going where our apps take us !!

Cheers!
[Android General] skatin707:
I already got rid of mine. It barely worked, such a waste.
[Android General] Appradiomodder:
Sorry to hear yours broke;

Mine works pretty good tbh. It rarely crashes and when it does, it only takes 20 secs. and the app restarts itself.
[Android General] skatin707:
Bluetooth never worked from the second I opened the box. I'm using a compatible phone as well.
[Android General] Appradiomodder:
I'm currently looking in to the apk.

Seems like there a lot of things there wich aren't even active for the moment.

So I think a version 1.0.3 is coming soon

According to Pioneer the app manufacurers shoud update their apps to be compatible with the sph-DA100. I don't understand this.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it possible to connect a bluetooth mouse + keyboard to your android phone? (I did this ages ago allready on my Pocket-pc)

A touchscreen (even multitouch) works by the same principals no?

I think Pioneer's it-devision is taking things to far at once and they should re-think the whole app. I'm not that experienced with coding (I'm a modder, not a creator), but from Android 3.2 and up (when the device supports mhl or hdmi out) the procedure call for android.permission.BLUETOOTH and android.permission.EXTSCREEN is the same for all devices right?

Hawt tip for any Pioneer engineer happening to stumble on this thread::

Take any android 3.2+ device with HDMI/MHL out

Connect this to a tv using HDMI/MHL to HDMI cable

Take any bluetooth mouse and connect it to your phone (might need a FREE driver app on older phones)

Take any bluetooth keyboard and connect it to your phone (might need a FREE driver app on older phones)

Enjoy manipulating ALL APPS + PHONE GUI on your tv

:D

Cheers!
[Android General] MKVFTW:
They currently have something interesting going on in the apple camp with Appradio Extensions 2.0

Appradiomodder, you are correct with the bluetooth. Most if not all android devices now adays support bluetooth devices.

The apk does what it should do when it comes to sending touch commands through the receiver screen to the phone via bluetooth. The problem is that the apk restricts it to certain locations.
[Android General] Appradiomodder:
That looks promising :)

But I noticed its for the appradio 1 not 2.

Respect for the guy's work tho! That requires a bit more skills than modding..

I'm not quite sure yet if its the appradioapp that does the restrictions. It could also be an extension is needed from the 'approved app'

I'm gonna check the apk's Carmediaplayer and Carkeyboard this weekend.
[Android General] MKVFTW:
I feel it could be both. When you are at the appradio home screen and try to pull down the notification bar it wont do anything, yet in the app on the phone you can pull down no problem.
[Android General] Appradiomodder:
I found out a couple of things:

It is not possible to make the phone GUI work with the appradio for now. for that to work, a new AppradioApp should be written.

The approved apps contain extra code(smali) wich tunnel the received info (Location info, Parkinginfo, touchlayer info, ...) from the radio and translate that to the app itself.

The approved apps contain extra permissions to communicate with the appradio/-app

If any experienced programmer would want to have a look at this, I'd be happy to share what I found out allready.

- Background picture can be customized (only in app mode)

- ANY app can appear in the approved apps list on the radio and they CAN be started by pressing the radio's screen

The search goes on...
[Android General] MKVFTW:
Can you expand on this? Simply starting an app from the appradio 2 is one step closer.

The MAIN thing i need/want right now is google music. That is my primary source of audible goodness. Everything else is fine that is stock for me. I just figured it would be the easiest route to mirror.
[Android General] zr2ee:
i'd be careful of the cheap adapters, i've used several of them and the connections aren't well suited for automotive use, the vibrations cause the HDMI to snow out. i ordered the pioneer kit and will be testing it out when it arrives.
[Android General] EvanVanVan:
Yeah I ordered multiple MHL to HDMI apdaters too, and as you said 3 out of 4 of them "snowed out"/intermittently turned to static (and that's with the AppRadio just sitting still in my house hooked up to a PC PSU)...The only one that didn't do that was so awkward with the cables attached it would never work permanently...I've been thinking about paying the premium for the real kit since my cc debt is almost manageable again!
[Android General] kagronick:
Its really just the connector to the phone is the problem. I was thinking about splicing a decent micro USB cable with a $5 MHL adapter.
[Android General] knives of ice:
yeah that's why I'm.looking to find out what definitely works well with the gs3
[Android General] zr2ee:
hopefully the USB initiative as well as the mirrorlink initiative work to enhance this more in the future seeing as how more and more people are wanting to integrate their devices into the car.
[Android General] aguila88psi:
From my experience, all the cheap adapters snowed, best experience and longevity came from the pioneer kit but even that kit failed after one week of use, the replacement is working strong now.

I also have an HDMI/mhl cable as a spare just in case the pioneer kit starts acting up again, its similar to the cable in link below. I feel it'll give the best results, IMO.

I'm using the pioneer set since 4 month without any problems, i'm driving a 2008 Mustang and would never put cheap stuff in it :)
[Android General] zr2ee:
i don't have to be cheap to know that cornering the market with a $100 add on cable kit is a little out of control even if it addresses warranty concerns.
[Android General] isantop:
The pioneer kit does come with a power supply to charge the phone, too. It mitigates the charge loss (Or possibly works really well, and I have it hooked up bad, I'm not sure).

I've been following this since the beginning on xda since I bought my radio early in the summer. I've very impressed. I have now created a username at the appradio forums and I would like to donate $20. If doing so, will I get the beta emailed to me today? I'm also using a Motorola Photon 4g for Sprint. I work at sprint so I can pretty much test any device that sprint offers. Please let me know as soon as possible. I was also wondering does it matter which firmware version of appradio I have?

Thanks for everything!

[Android General] zr2ee:
awesome job man, sorry i couldn't help more, ended helping a friend move in all day on a whim. I'll have to try this out as soon as i finish up my new MHL hookup today! :fingers-crossed:
[Android General] EvanVanVan:
And it should just be that easy? The pinouts and number of wires in both cables should be the same and just have to be soldered together? I wanted to try that but if it doesn't work both cables are pretty much destroyed...

Also, with the KillNanny app is it better to use the AppRadio's GPS, or the phone's GPS? With Pioneer's GPS when I connected my phone to the original AppRadio App I'd always lose phone/data signal for a minute because I think the 2 GPS's were causing interference.
[Android General] kagronick:
The number of wires will be the same, maybe not the colors.

I got a $42 MHL adapter at radio shack. Its a rip off but it doesn't snow like the $5 one I got off eBay. Kill Nanny doesn't use the AppRadio's GPS yet but it is something I need to work on. I created the app BTW.

Side Buttons

My apologies if this question has already been asked, but is it possible for the right side AppRadio on screen buttons to be set to "auto hide" in order to gain a true full screen experience?
