It is a screen calibration issue and it is really weird because that was fixed in version 0.15 and not changed in version 0.16. What you can do to see what's going on is go to the developer options and tick "show touches" and "show cursor location". Then you can see where your touches are registered. Also screen calibration does not really change anything, it only checks calibration.

That is a bluetooth connection issue. What might help is to toggle bluetooth off/on when you are in the "No connection" HU screen, right after you hit the Apps icon.

After a few days my s4 is still working flawlessly with arunchained but the only problem I still have is not getting a positive charge rate while using the official samsung mhl connected to the head unit via usb.

I've seen plenty of posts about using a fast charge kernel but worried about damaging the phone, has anybody any advice on what to do or a safe kernel to use..thanks
[Android General] 400ixl:
Best to go and look in the S4 section of the forums. Ideally you need one with SELinux in permissive mode and with fast charge enabled.
[Android General] Cipprio:
Thank you.

I have the 1.0 Samsung adapter, the one where you need to plug the micro USB into the adapter to power your phone that's connect by the hdmi and MHL plug to the phone. I've used it on my television before and on my pc so I know it works never failed. I bought it off eBay but the box has the official hologram seal and the unique plastic wrap around the MHL adapter. I have the galaxy note 3 international model SM-N900. I saw a few YouTube videos of the note 3 and the 4000 NEX working together with aru perfectly however they used the AT&T variant. Not sure if that matters. They also used the same MHL adapter I've been using.

Cheap RK3188T HDMI stick

For anyone wanting to try a HDMI stick, at Geekbuying they are having a sale. It's a MK809III for 39.99$ and that's pretty cheap. While I can't guarantee that it will work well with ARU, it's similar to my working MK908 stick and I know other people have the MK809III working. For details see here: MK809III. For some strange reason only the one with the EU plug power supply is that cheap. US plug one is 8$ more. Anyway you won't need the power supply in your car.

Tronsmart T1000 miracast adapter

I bought a cheap Tronsmart T1000 miracast adapter some time ago but never got it to work in miracast mode with my Nexus 4. A few days ago I decided to try it again. There was a new firmware version available so I installed that. This version also allows to set the default startup mode to miracast. Old version didn't have this so you would always have to use the EZCast app on your phone to switch from EZCast mode to miracast mode. To my surprise miracast now worked with my Nexus 4. So I tested it with my AR3 and ARU and everything worked. Only noticed that ocasionally the sound would breakup. I have to check it a bit more while actually driving but finally there's some progress and it's usable.

Also did an actual driving test with a Belkin miracast adapter and my Nexus 4. It didn't work so well. The miracast would disconnect quite a lot. That is really bad because it won't automatically try to reconnect so you have to mess with your phone while driving. After doing this test I noticed there's a new firmware so I installed that. Some test at home showed that the connection seems more stable. Will have to do an actual driving test as well to be sure it's more stable now.

Galaxy S5 working!

For those of you with a Galaxy S5 from Sprint (SM-G900P) this kernel works great. Your phone must be in permissive mode and this is the only way I have gotten it work. All apps I tried that are made for changing the SELinux mode from enforcing to permissive do not work.

So far I have only tried the MHL cable...I am going to try the Allshare Dongle soon.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2731356

I use Nova launcher since it does a great job of rearranging icons in landscape mode. You must turn off landscape mode in ARunchained.

This is an awesome app thanks!!

How to use AR3/ARU with Droid Maxx?

Is it possible to use AR3 and ARU with a Droid Maxx? If so, is the only way to do this to use a WiDi to hdmi adapter? Asking because I bought an AR3 before understanding how to connect to it, so I'm wondering if I should open the box or just return it. Have read up for a few days on XDA and elsewhere, but still not sure if it will work, or if it does work, whether there are options other than the not-so-well reviewed WiDi adapters.

Thanks,

Chris
[Android General] rchapoteau:
Might be a stupid question, but have you tried getting your phone to work with a TV using these exact same cables? It should automattically work with any HDMI port on a tv. Once a while back I tried getting an MHL adaptor to work with my phone and it wouldn't. I changed it out to a different MHL adaptor and it worked on my tv right away

Hey guys, I just had my original Appradio stolen out of my car so I'm looking to upgrade to either the AR3 or 4000.

Anyway, I've done a little bit of research on this Miracast thing. I've seen one video that shows the touch functions not working. Has this been fixed, or is this still an issue?

Thank you for all the hard work you've still been doing on the software!

i tried to fixed the mentioned issues by changing selinux status into permissive by changing to this kernel

SneakyKat kernel Rev2.8 - N9005/N900T - Ramdisk NE6 / http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2613305

this kernel also has fast charge wich is really working great!

but sadly there were still seem to be problems with the mirrored screen on the HU and the bluetooth touch transmission.

Connection process works normally until....

1. during connection process it tells me to activate appradio by touching several white points points on my HU.

but the shown screen on the HU is stretched in hight so it´s not posible to click the activation points on the HU-Screen (see picture activation screen 1/2). i do use nova launcher since years so there should be problem problem with landscape mode (fixation of landscape mode is on in ARU)

2. tried to invert x/y axles but still no accurate touch feedback....

3. on my "normal" android start page also all icons seemed to be streched and the screen is cut off on top and bottom (see picture start screen)

i also tried to delete and reinstall the app after clearing bluetooth data from the headunit and reconnect stuff...connection process works fine until the mentioned issues accure.

is there something in the "developers menu" what has to be toggled on ? (some gpu features)

my hardware datas

- galaxy note 3 with german stock android 4.4.2

- SneakyKat kernel Rev2.8 - N9005/N900T - Ramdisk NE6

- selunix set to permissive

- nova launcher

- HU Pioneer AVH x 8600 bt with appradio 3

Have u done the appradio video calibration through the HU settings?

I tried your suggestion but it still turns on the screen. No big deal I didn't really need to have screen standby. My phone charges with my current setup. Thanks

hmm this maybe a possibility...if you can tell me where to adjust (on device settings) the dpi density :confused:

but i think this would be just the half way because the transmitted touch position still dont work accurate.

seems still to be a bluetooth issue with the new bluetooth stack of kitkat

Nexus 5

I'm having issues with ARU on my Nexus 5.

Sometimes it works on my AVH-4000NEX, maybe about 50% of the time. My most common issue is that the screen comes on and the video comes through just fine, but the touch screen controls don't work. I'll sit there and wait a bit, disconnect, reconnect etc. I've even restarted my phone a couple of times when this happens.

Like I said though, it randomly works and when it does it works well!

The only other thing that concerns me is that I can't get Screen Standby to work properly and according to my GSAM the phone is running at 111F degrees... I'm hoping there will be some fixes because I bought this HU to have access to my phone! :-/
[Android General] Area51©:
It will work with a miracast adapter. Obviously there will be some delay. In my experiments however this wasn't bad at all. Some people are quite happy with this setup.
[Android General] Area51©:
There's no problem regarding touch working as this is sent via Bluetooth. It doesn't matter which way the phone's screen is sent to the HU. Phone->MHL->HDMI or Phone->WiFi->Miracast->HDMI makes no difference to the HU.
[Android General] Area51©:
Ok. First of all, the app doesn't do any changes to the video output so any video scaling issues are just down to the Phone and HU as normally the MHL adapter doesn't do any changes either. You can check this by connecting the phone/MHL adapter to your tv and check that the picture looks normal. If it doesn't it may be because of the custom kernel.

If the picture looks normal on your tv it can only be because of some setting on your HU. Does your HU have any settings for adjusting the picture? I think that you can remove the left sidebar by double clicking the midlle button of your HU. Does it scale better then? It could also be that there's some setting on your phone/configuration of your kernel.

Regarding touch, if you can't complete the calibration touch won't work because you can't get out of the calibration screen.

How to use AR3/ARU with Droid Maxx?

Thank you A51! Three followup items:

1) Will the touchscreen work, as long as I have a bluetooth connection in addition to the Miracast? Looks like that's the case, but I'm just playing it "better safe than sorry."

2) Is there any favored adapter for the Miracast? Push2TV maybe? That one seems to be the most available, but it has sometimes gotten spotty reviews, so I want to make sure I start with gear others have succeeded with. What did you use in your experiments?

3) Most importantly, since it looks like this will work for me, thank you! Assuming that you boost my confidence enough that I install this thing (which looks likely), I will be sure to donate, because your app will make something that (for me) is a sizable investment in this radio truly worthwhile. :)

Thanks again,

Chris
[Android General] Area51©:
1) Yes.

2) Netgear PTV3000 and the Belkin miracast adapters are reported to be the best ones. I tried a Belkin and it seems OK. However, I can't guarantee that it will work for you. Some other guy that tried a lot of them said the Belkin is the best one.
[Android General] grober spass:
HEUREKA :)

GOT THINGS WORKING!! :D

At least you were right...the sneaky cat kernel was the problem.

I tried several different kernels and now i found the one working!

[KERNEL] [06/15/14] AURORA R11v2 | 3.4.93 | LINARO 4.10 - A15

http://xdaforums.com/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=53430936

this kernel sets SELINUX to permissive AND allows Fast Charge via Synapse-App

Interesting Thing was that i dont have to go trough activation process....just plugged the hdmi cable and bluetooth connected by itself and it worked....

So maybe this Combination is a workaround for every user that has following hardware data/Combination

- Pioneer Headunit with App Radio 2/3 (my HU is a AVH x 8600 BT with AR 3)

- Galaxy Note 3 (9005) with Stock Android 4.4.2 KitKat

- Samsung or other MHL Cable

- AR-U 016.apk

Going out for a ride....:victory:

I don't have a problem with that. Just don't like the way you are trying to push me to do something for you. This app is for free so if it doesn't work for you that's just too bad. I am free to spend my valuable time on whatever I want.

If you would have paid a bit more attention, you would have seen that I tried to trace this problem with another member but was unable to find the cause. He had two different roms, one worked, one didn't but both got the same key injected. It was verified that this key was indeed injected. So it's something in the rom, I am unable to reproduce the problem.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Perfectly reasonable answer to me. You have tried, but it was not an obvious fix.

Maybe strikeru97 should try some other ROM's to see if he can resolve it himself. Certainly would be my next step.

Just tried it out on my Nexus 5 and it worked to turn the screen off. Be warned that there is no automatic exiting of the screen off state so you either have to do it manually or reboot.

It integrates with tasker so I've set up a profile for HDMI connected AND BT connected to Appradio with an exit task to return to normal. I will test it out later and let you know how I got on.

screen does not control

For some reason my screen will not take touch inputs. I can connect and everything and screen goes into landscape however I can only touch the screen on my Samsung Galaxy S5 to control it and the screen on my Appradio just mirrors the phone which is ok but it would be nice to be able to touch the screen and control the phone that way as well.

I have:

Verizon Note 3 progress

Ok, so I've made some progress with my Verizon Galaxy Note 3. I'm still in the early stages of testing, but here is what I've done so far...

I started with stock 4.3 MJE firmware.

I rooted the phone using VRoot

I replaced the Chinese SU app with Chainfire's SuperSU using instructions from here:

http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2013/11/How-to-Remove-Replace-VRoot-Chinese-superuser-with-SuperSU.html

I installed SafeStrap 3.65

I installed KitKat 4.42 NC2 firmware using BeansTown106's thread here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2726558 [MENTION=3544615

I installed SafeStrap 3.72

Then I installed Baja Rom 14 from this thread:

[url]http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2553357[/url]

This ROM is pre-rooted, SELinux Permissive and Knox disabled. I believe that its supposed to be fast charge enabled as well, but I've yet to verify that.

I then installed ARU .16

Deleted all connections in my AR2 and set them back up.

It connected the first time right away, calibrated and I had full touch functionality.

I've been playing with different settings that required reboots of the phone, and it seems as if each time I reboot I need to change the connection type to "iphone", then back to "others" before it will reconnect again. I had this issue before with the stock 4.3 firmware, but at some point it suddenly went away for some reason and the connection became very stable. Like I said, I'm still playing with settings and testing with the AR2, but he good news is that this custom ROM eliminates the issues with SELinux and Knox.

If I can get fast charge to work, then I will e a very happy camper.
[Android General] Noob_I'm_Not:
I already invited the Dev last night. I have not heard back from him as of yet. I went ahead and bought the app off of the Play store. I hate for the Dev to lose 30% of the $.99 that he's charging.

Do you need to use the pioneer android kit for this to work via USB or hdmi? Or would any USB and MHL be suffice?
[Android General] NspyBB:
Hey there, so I have an update here. I found the Analogix SlimPort cable to be my main issue. I was able to get it working, touch and all, but the snow and short had me buy the LinkS cable. Everything seems to be working, but the touch screen. It will allows me to press the white dots at start up, but anything after that it stops working. COuld this be a bad cable of a BT pairing issue? BT is connected... any help would be great!
[Android General] Noob_I'm_Not:
The answer is that you do not need to use the Pioneer kit. I am using an MHL adapter and HDMI cable that I purchased at Best Buy, and a USB cord that I had around the house. Everything is up and running fine. My advise from what I've seen throughout the thread is to not go super cheap on the MHL. There have been some issues with MHL adapters that did not work correctly. When the owners replaced them with a little better quality, their problems went away.

Even a good quality MHL adapter, HDMI cable, and USB cable will cost MUCH less than the Pioneer kit!

---------- Post added at 11:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

Alright, I got to play around with this a bit tonight. Long story short, it works with my set up. Unlike Screen Standby, once the screen is off, it stays off until I turn it back on. Screen Standby would randomly allow the screen to come back on and then turn the backlight off again.

The only thing I haven't worked around at this point is that Screen Standby would keep the device from going to sleep, SecondScreen does not do this. After a time, the screen on the HU will go blank. It comes back on by hitting the HU's back button, and that doesn't have any effect on the phone's screen.

All in all, I'd say this program is a success. I'm going to continue playing around and see what I can do about automating the process...

You can find the link to the program in message #5327. Sorry that I can't provide a link, not over the 10 post rule yet.
