[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CARPSLAYER:
Unfortunately it does not, the program runs like a champ on my phone, but it seems like the radio doesnt recognize it. The "mirrorlink" button never becomes active on the radio screen.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeybus:
I have seen this - that the mirrorlink is not getting active on my X8, however, this is not unic for the AuRoN89 makeover. If you ask me Samsung MirrorLink is a crap app and should be replaced with something else. Maybe Samsung will wake up some day, who knows. :cool:

I do not think there is an issue with the Alpine unit, i tested last night with a freinds Nokia [MirrorMode] and the full mirroring worked just fine on my X8 with the latest avaliable firmware 1.400.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuRoN89:
Thats because both nokia an alpine allow full mirroring
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hockeybus:
Beside "default DriveLink apps" i got TuneIn Radio working in FULL MIRROR MODE. All other apps, as you already know, is not working.

My remark about that it is working with Nokia was becouse i have seen here that some folks say it is an issue with the Alpine that makes DriveLink not working full mirroring with other than stock apps.

I am not trying to be a "smart@s" but maybe take a look at TuneIn Radio app and try to find out why this "non stock drivelink" app is working with full mirror as other apps don't. :fingers-crossed:

:cowboy:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuRoN89:
Tunein app works because is whitelisted inside a db file. Iits whitelisted in a src files too. Anyway, tomorrow i should recive the ics x8 and hopefully i will find a way to let full mirrroring working on it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CARPSLAYER:
Success?

I agree that Samsung dropped the ball with this app. Fortunately AuRoN89 did an awesome job crafting it into a great app.

I did some more testing last night, fiddling with Bluetooth, sequence of opening the app and plugging in the cord etc... and couldn't get the radio to recognize the phone. Finally I gave up and went to bed. This morning I plug my phone into the radio just to charge on the way to work, and about 15 minutes into my drive, the mirror link button goes active! It worked flawlessly the rest of the drive.

When I got to the office I unplugged and re-plugged and the button went active immediately.

I'll try again on the way home but maybe it just took a while to "initialize" or something?

Edit:

I am using:

-- Galaxy S4 SCH-I545 (Verizon)

-- Phone Firmware 4.2.2 (VRUAME7)

-- Appradio 3

-- Drive Link 1.1.028r3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] woodze81:
I assume this because Tunein has a "car mode" (big buttons) and Saumsung/Alpine/someone deems this safe to use while operating a car.

It is odd though that the alpine unit seems to be the only one using the white list. (as I understand it the full mirror works on other brands..?)

Thanks for all the work so far AuRoN89. I hope once you get your unit you can figure this one out!

I'm pretty sure I have a common set up but am happy to help test!

Cheers,

Woodze81

Drivelink power consumption

Hey guys,

Great work!. I am having some power issues while running drivelink. Firstly, I have the JVC KW-NSX1

http://www.crutchfield.com/p_105NSX1/JVC-KW-NSX1.html?tp=20217

and I am running the MOAR Rom on the Galaxy S3.

My problem is that when I run drivelink for prolonged periods of time, the phone gets SUPER hot and eventually shuts down. When it is later plugged into another power source the battery is depleted. (at the time i was running navigation and pandora)

This is what I know about the setup. The module the phone connects to in order to establish mirror link, provides 5v powerwise. So although it is charging the phone when connected, its not as much as if it were connected to a 12v let alone a wall outlet.

I would like to know if there are any ways to minimize the battery drain and not cause the phone to reach such high temps. As it stands, I have not figured out how to turn off or dim the screen while mirroring. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuRoN89:
you can't turn off the screen (well, you can but there no more mirroring on the unit).

the only way to reduce battery drain is:

1) put display brightness to the minimum.

2) turn off 3G Data / Wi Fi / GPS (use it only when you really need it)

3) Enable Energy Saver option

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

TuneIn is just an example, a lot of other apps works. and all of them are in this whitelisted list.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thestick00:
Is that accurate that you cannot turn off the screen and allow mirroring? I realize this is a different thread, but from what I read here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1951960

I was under the impression that you could turn off or dim the screen and maintain mirror functionality (see the first post). Please let me know if I am mistaken.

Thanks again

Download and install screen standby #root app. It can turn off the display of your phone keeping that of the head unit on.

Missing Something?

Am I missing something here? I just installed the supposed r3 version (link re-posted on July 21st by AuRoN89, Thank you!!!)

But under app info it still listed as 1.1.028 (not 1.1.028 r3)

I cleared data, cleared cache, unistalled and reinstalled using APK Installed, and still not coming up as r3

Using an unrooted GS3 (SCH-I535), 4.1.2 (current), baseband I535VRBMF1

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I think there is more to it than just the white list. If I change the default navigation app to Navigon Australia, which is on the list, the Alpine unit just drops out of mirror link like it does with the other non white listed apps.

Appradio3 with GS3 Working Great!

r3 working beautifully with AppRadio 3 and I535 Galaxy S3, stock non-rooted. I have full mirroring as expected. Use Nova Launcher as one of your shortcuts. It will give you access to your entire phone in landscape format.

Interesting note...I tried using a standard USB to Micro USB out of the back of the Appradio 3 (same cable used for charging or plugging into computer). Couldn't get it to work with the Appradio 3. I had to purchase the Pioneer CD-MU200 cable. I have a feeling they swapped the pins so you're forced to buy a Pioneer cable. You should also completely shutdown or uninstall the Appradio App. If it's running in the background, you won't get Mirrorlink r3 to work correctly.

The touch response (latency) is a bit slow. No fault on Au{R}o part. Blame Samsung or Pioneer.

If you need help with GS3 to Appradio 3, feel free to PM me.

Donate to Au{R}o, he deserves it!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gts24:
Bolded text is absolutely false. I am using the cable that came with my Samsung galaxy s3, it works just fine.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drawblood:
Glad your's is working, it saved you $30.

Must be a phone issue on my part (or maybe Gen 1 Galaxy S3) or a head unit issue. My wife's and mine where purchased day one and neither will work with stock cable. They will only work with the Pioneer cable. Strange, but true...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CARPSLAYER:
I have an S4, but I have been having a heck of a time getting my Appradio3 to recognize my phone. It works 1 out of 10 times I try to use it, then it only works for 10-15 minutes before the sound drops out, or the connection drops out completely.. I will try the usb cable that came with the kit and report back.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drawblood:
We might need to start a new forum for the Appradio3 issue(s). Correct me if I'm wrong, but looking at Pioneers website of compatible devices, the S4 isn't listed. Then looking at Samsung's site, Drivelink doesn't support the S4 either.

Maybe a compatibility issue on two accounts? I don't know for sure...this is just a guess. Hopefully someone with more knowledge can maybe back my theory.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CARPSLAYER:
You are correct, pioneer does not list the S4 as compatible as compatible, neither is the S3 though, so since drawblood had luck by switching out the cable, I thought I would give it a go and see if it fixes my issue. Mirroring does work with my setup, just not reliably.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gts24:
I have a day 1 vzw s3. Are you plugging JUST the samsung s3 usb cable into the appradio , or using some sort of extension cable?

samsung GS4 Sony XAV701

Hey

Been searching this thread for 3 days, I'm still not understanding what I have to do. Sorry, I know the information will be here, I just not getting anywhere with the different head units, phones options etc. Plus internet is taking minutes to load a page where I am staying atm

Android noob, always just used them as stock, so sorry again. Can not even get apk to install. Have third party apps allowed on phone. When try to install apk i get Parse erorr - problem parsing the package.

Not understanding what I have to do with TMserver.apk or even if I have to use it (or found link where to get it yet)

My firmware for my SONY XAV701 is JR08_xav_1.13.003 (asia-pacific)

have un-rooted Samsung GS4 running Nova

Once I get the apk to install is it as simple as opening the app, allowing full mirroring and connecting with unit? I'm seeing mixed results for peoples different set-ups.

Thanks guys, will donate as soon as get working, because god knows without you guys this would be the most disappointing software.

FYI. live in australia where in most states now, you can be fined for even touching your phone while driving, got rid of my HTC so I could get galaxy for mirrorlink, to learn the DriveLink app isn't available in this country :/

Great News! Where can i download and test it? :good:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AuRoN89:
First of all, which head unit do you have?

If you have a Sony, or JVC, you can simply download the modified drive link from here http://www.colmoschinxtreme.com/android, install it on the phone (S3, Note 2 or S4 only) and plug in to the head unit and voila, full mirroring.

If you have an alpine, you have to wait the new mod. I'm at work right now, and i will release the mods tomorrow or later this day.

to everyone with an alpine unit:

Just to be clear, YOU NEED A phone with a DEODEXED ROM to use full mirroring with alpine units.

I think that a rooted phone is enough, BUT, i don't know how to install system package. on a NON DEODEXED ROM. If anyone know how, let me know :)

Hmmm. Not working for me :(

Apps like Chrome, Ingress, GTA3, NovaLauncher etc all return back to the Alpine headunit screen as before. I can hear sounds over the car speakers from the running app though.

Apps like TomTom, Navigator, etc work fine though but these work in the original DriveLink anyway.

Running STOCK Android 4.1.2 (I9300XXEMC2) Kernel version 3.0.31-1042335

Phone is ROOTED.

Debug USB is ON

Unknown Sources is ON

Steps I performed :

1. Uninstalled DriveLink 1.1.028r3

2. Made backup of system/app/TMServerApp.apk

3. Installed DriveLink 1.1.028r4 apk using Root Explorer. Popup appeared to complete action so selected "Package Installer"

4. Copied new TMServerApp.apk to system/app using Root Explorer after making R/W and overwrote existing package when prompted.

5. Rebooted phone and on boot said installing Android apps (guessing its applying the new TMServerApp.apk at this point).

6. Connected to Alpine ICS-X8 and DriveLink autostarted ok on headunit.

7. Added applications to shortcuts fine.

8. Tested shortcuts. Non-standard DriveLink apps not working and returns to headunit main screen as before. Hitting active MirrorLink icon closes the app and returns to DriveLink.

Did I miss something?

I am running a beta version of the ICS-X8 firmware from Alpine directly so I will upgrade to the recently released 1.400 and test again. Not expecting any change though.

Update: Tried Alpine firmware 1.400 and still the same.

What Alpine firmware did you test with AuRoN89 ?

Many thanks for your hard work so far on this!!

You are most likely missing the deodexed rom required. I could be wrong but stock aren't deodexed...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] laxity:
AuRoN89 - If this is true then are we likely to see this working for non-deodexed ROMs later? I'm sure there are many people here on stock ROM like me. :(

I would be interested to know what was changed in the Samsung TMServerApp.apk exactly to make this work on Alpine units specifically. Was it a restriction, bug or limitation that was fixed/added? Just wondering if it is something I could get Samsung support to alter if it specifically affected Alpine units.

TMServerApp was copied over to the System/App directory overwriting the old one. The old one was backed up first) I'm just wondering if anyone else with a DE-ODEXED ROM is having the same issue?
