ARunchaned reload GPS

hi everyone,

ust a few question about AR reload, i have been using it for a while and it been great Kudos to the dev.

i recently changed device and i have to set it up once more, i currently have HTC m9 and ARunchand reload app is working however , the device is not working very well due to battery and overheating issue..

i need to find some way to lessen the load . i was thinking to switch to miracast instead of MHL. my question is if i use miracast will i be using the headunit GPS or the my phone GPS?

also i was thinking switching to android stick, if so i switch will i still be able to recv calls on my headunit?

last, do anyone have any recomendation whats a good MHL 3.0 adapter 5 pin, brand and were to buy?

thanks in advance.

Just purchased a Verizon S5 got it all rooted and installed ARUnchained the paid version, got it working but no touch control on the head unit Pioneer SPH-DA210. I'm using the Samsung adapter.

I'm also using an external power supply to power the adapter and not the head unit.

help. ....

Almost forgot. ..I'm on 4.4.4 would love to have LP on my phone.....don't know if That's possible though. Would you share your setup with me?

---------- Post added at 12:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:23 AM ----------

tech..what version of screen standby are you using?
[Android General] 400ixl:
Have you set the source to other rather than HDMI on the HU?
[Android General] ilpleasu:
O yes did that already. ..
[Android General] tech by trade:
Switch the HU to other from iPhone.

Just do a search on youtube for root galaxy S5 Lollipop. All you do is install TWRP and then flash SU on stock. Then you can turn of Knox and install anything you want.

As for Screen Standby, I use the current rev. I have Zero Brightness, Shake function, Auto HDMI/MHL on, Close App as HDMI Disconnect, and Return To home screen all checked. That is it, no more or you will have problems.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
I did change the iPhone to other before I asked for help, the other steps you mentioned I don't understand. ...excuse me for being a nob. Thanks for your help. ...
[Android General] Area51©:
When you run diagnostics from the menu in ARUR, is there anything not checked?
[Android General] Area51©:
It depends on the head unit you have but if you have one with GPS, you can use its GPS. Doesn't matter if you use MHL or Miracast as it goes via Bluetooth.

If you want to use an Android stick and a phone at the same time that can be done with an AppRadio 2 and AppRadio 3. Those have a special configuration for that.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
Yes, Installed as system app. ...
[Android General] Area51©:
That one doesn't matter so it should be able to work. Oops, reading helps.

Did you select 'APPS' instead of 'HDMI' as source? 'HDMI' will show the phone's screen however touch won't work.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
I'm sure I checked apps but I will double check to make sure. Been using ARUNCHAINED reloaded since it's been out. Never had a problem with my S3,S4 or my Rz Max, just this S5, I'm sorry I have been reading, think maybe I been reading to much...lol
[Android General] Area51©:
Don't try to read the whole thread. When you check also verify that the status becomes 'Connected...'. If not, note what it reads.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
No luck at all, trying everything still no touch.
[Android General] Area51©:
But it did connect?
[Android General] Area51©:
Do the buttons on the head unit work?
[Android General] ilpleasu:
Yes it did, now after 3 days of no touch controls it finally starting working but! The screen will go to (Caution) Screen image may appear reversed. ....is been doing that all the time and I just tap the screen and it will come back, but every few seconds this will happen? I'm using the screen as I type this message. After I shut the ignition down I don't know what to expect upon restarting the vehicle, but we will see after I receive a reply I will reboot everything. ....
[Android General] Area51©:
"Screen image may appear reversed" message is the reverse camera input I think. Did you connect the input and maybe you have to invert the input polarity. As it seems to switch on now when reverse is not engaged.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
Forgot to mention the slow charge message that keep appearing in the notifications on the phone saying that I should use the original 3.0 charging cable for charging, its just annoying is all.

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

It

The Camara works great, it only does this with this phone, the polarity is correct. ....
[Android General] Area51©:
Maybe somehow you selected the reverse input manually. I remember that was an issue I had with my AR2. Check the head unit user's manual.
[Android General] ilpleasu:
Got it, that was the problem. ...wow! been so confused about this this whole setup until I just missed that one ......thanks

Now I must reboot the complete system and see what happens. ......fingers crossed.
[Android General] Area51©:
I'll send you the bill later;)
[Android General] ilpleasu:
Whole up I'm not done. .....lol rebooting now. ...

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:21 PM ----------

Walla working great. ....just 2 Issues. ..seems as though the head unit takes forever to boot up and this S5 is getting real hot. ......was wondering is their a 3.0 adapter that will adapt to the Appradio HDMI port?
[Android General] chomorro:
Looks like the Verizon s4 on 5.0.1 can not be rooted yet. Should have rooted with kit kat......

calibrate problem

Hello,

I have nexus 5 rooted and ARU with the Pioneer keyboard.

But i can't calibrate the app because i have notre the hand in my car.

Anyone hot this issue too?
[Android General] dredq:
Have you tried http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/general/root-pingpongroot-s6-root-tool-t3103016

Just double check that this works for your phone before using
[Android General] chomorro:
That says its only for the s6. I have the s4 :/
[Android General] 400ixl:
That is usually because you haven't set the bluetooth connection up properly. Delete the pairing from both phone and HU and do it again.
[Android General] Kronopost:
I'm going to do it tomorow before going to work but i got it working only for the calibrate i don't know how today...

newbie blue

so im just getting started in this ARU deal and i need guidance because ive seen alot of conflicting information. ive tried to research specifics on my topic and im not getting the answers i need, so hopefully i can get some help from you guys here

Headunit- AVH-x8500BHs

Phone- Samsung galaxy s5 (no root yet) running android 5.0

i havnt downloaded ARU Unchained just yet because i want to make sure i can do everything i want to do with it before purchase....

so i wish to set up my device so that when i get into the car and start it up, my phone will recognize the bluetooth on the headunit, sync, start my music (pandora) and also start ARU. when ARU starts, i want it to link to the miracast i have, and be able to use touch screen functions while mirroring my phone, and i want all of this to happen as seemlessly as possible.

i know ARU is capable of all this. i have downloaded tasker from the app store and have been able to set my phone up so that when i start my car and my bluetooth syncs to my headunit, it automatically starts pandora, and also when i leave more than 30m from my house, the wifi shuts off on my phone to conserve battery. so i have a very brief knowledge of how tasker works.

i went out and purchased a microsoft wireless display adapter from best buy, and when i tried to use it with my s5, it has connection issues. after researching i found that samsung uses a different type of interface? mhl? anyways, is there anyway to get what i want out of my headunit and this app with the items i have? tasker, the s5, my headunit, and the microsoft wireles adapter?

all the S5 guys out there running lollipop, id also want to know my options for rooting, and what would be the best method.

sorry if it seems like im trying to be spoonfed. i promise im not. ive just ran into so much conflicting information in here and other places that i dont really know whats possible or doable anymore. and id read through the 800+ pages of this thread, but aint nobody got time for that!!!

thank you in advance. :)

small edit... i do have the pioneer adapter and cables and the samsung pin adapter that goes on the end of the mhl to allow for touch screen function.. i did use ARliberator back in the day, but it was so bad and buggy that i just gave up. ARU looks extremely promising and successful.
[Android General] SwissGalaxy:
Hello,

Now I have to decide to change my Galaxy S4 for a new Smartphone, I have ARUR (paid).

What system do you recommend?

1) Galaxy S6 + Chromecast or Belkin

2) Galaxy S5 and I keep my MHL adapter

3) Nexus, Xperia or other?

Thank you for your information.
[Android General] Kronopost:
Well I tried today, again and again during 1 hour pairing, reseting the autoradio (SPH-DA120) and the farest i've done is to calibrate the screen...

Then is still not have the hand :(

I can't upload the img i made about the hand with red cross showing up when i tap as i'm new in there :cowboy:

I'm like desesperate, can it be the Knox or SELinux i heard that made it on samsung phone?
[Android General] Area51©:
A Nexus 5 doesn't have Knox. However if you have Lollipop you need to put SELinux in permissive mode for touch to work. With the paid version, AppRadio Unchained Reloaded (ARUR) from the Play store, you don't have to do that as it supports SELinux in Enforcing mode. Also if you want to use GPS from the SPH-DA120, it will only work with ARUR.
[Android General] jparasita:
Well I tried switching my galaxy s6 with my razr hd with aru reloaded today and the system doesnt even pick up the phone and I have read that the s6 might not have mhl support but I also noticed that they have mhl 3.0 adapters from samsung so I am curious if anyone has tryed hooking the s6 up with a 3.0 mhl adapter?
[Android General] Area51©:
The S6 doesn't have MHL support so no need to try.
[Android General] chomorro:
Oh thats not good news i was thinking of going to the s6 because i can root it and i cant root my s4.
[Android General] Area51©:
Don't worry it can work with a Chromecast or a Miracast device.
[Android General] Tait3d B1ack:
is it too much to ask for a bit of guidance here? i know my situation might be a bit complicated, but im sure someone could lead me in the right direction. i feel as if i was completely ignored....
[Android General] jparasita:
Will have to see if we can put mhl drivers in this with flashable zip will so some research on this.
[Android General] Kronopost:
Oh well this is it!

Thank you i'm gonna try it so !
[Android General] 400ixl:
You have kind of asked for the moon on a stick with your post

Your HU is compatible and your phone technically compatible as well (provided you can root it).

So, root the phone and prove that has worked. then just get the app and install it. If you hit any issues then ask about those specific problems and people will answer. No one is going to write you a huge great how to specific to just you..
[Android General] Kyrillos:
Hi guys, I need your help please.

I have a pioneer avh-x8700bt and a Galaxy note 4 which I want to pair. I managed to do so, my only issue seems to be the touch screen on the pioneer. In effect I can't use it. It shows a hand with a cross on top of it. Also, whenever I press the Home button on pioneer, instead of taking me to Home of the phone, it takes me out of the APP at all. I use the Samsung original adaptor and a custom rooted ROM.

Thanks in advance.
[Android General] Tait3d B1ack:
I wasnt asking for the world. Just some direction and guidance. I figured that is what xda is about... Posting ur technical concerns and questions, with the hope that someone more experienced who has been down the same road or knows the ins and outs, could help lead others along that path. You say nobody is going to write specifics, when all i see when i read through the threads are specifics to phones, headunits, and devices to use for mirroring.

Ill root the phone but that doesnt answer my initial questions. I already tested the mirroring device, and had the connection issue. I dont want to buy this app only to find out it wont work for what i wish it to. Hence my purpose for coming here and asking details, with the hopes that someone who has similar setup or kmowledge would answer the 3 questions that i had. Again. Didnt realize that was such a bad thing... If this thread didnt have almost 900 pages, id go through and find the answers im pretty sure have already been addressed.
[Android General] 400ixl:
What I said is no one will write you the end to end guide you were asking for in your original post. You were as you put it asking to be spoon fed, whether you saw it that way or not. Yes there are lost of specific for phones and HU devices. But specific to examples, very few to how do I do everything. Sorry, but that's not what XDA is about, short of the threads which someone decides to write and support as a full how to. Its to help people get over hurdles once they have tried for themselves and hit a blocker.

If you want someone to come along with the same phone / HU then you can't be saying you are being ignored after 24 hours. It may be that someone with your combination doesn't come along for days and then your post is pages back, so unlikely to be seen.

If you don't want to pay, then first off use the free APP as it will do what you need. You will just need to get SELinux in permissive mode to use that one. You can then test out all of the connection combinations you want and ask specific questions which will by then be either generic to most users, or specific to a type of phone where you have more chance of getting help.

XDA is full of people who will help people, many of us have spend hundreds of hours doing just that, but people need to help themselves first and get going.

Will it start Pandora on the HU then carry on playing that when the Appradiomode kicks in (as it will auto connect into appradio mode so yes to that part of your question), no idea as EU models don't have Pandora. But you can test it with the Free app for yourself.

You can use MHL yes, someone has reported the Microsoft adapter as working as well. Tasker can be used to start the wireless connection, but can be hit and miss. Area51 is working on automating it (Chromecast and then Miracast) so that may be automated for you in the future.

You really just need to get on with it and seek help to sort the wrinkles out as you hit them. It will work 90% as you want it pretty much off the bat.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Have you rooted and got SELinux into permissive mode?
[Android General] Tait3d B1ack:
Thank you for that. One issue i came across was the mirror device not connecting at all to the headunit, and then reading that only the samsung devices with mhl will work samsung phones. I guess the first hurdle i need to accomplish is get to get that to connect and mirror properly. I just dont wish to buy another additional mirror device if i dont have tk. Chromecast looks to be able to do what i need. I wasnt nessicarily looking for a step by step guide. I pretty nuch know the steps. Just more concerned with if ny hardware is able to do what i want it to do. Thats the issue. I was hoping someone had already done it and saved me the trouble/hassle. I did the whole arliberator for over 3 months trying to get it to work and i just dont wish to buy more stuff to 'test' and be disappointed. Sorry for the confusion and if it seems like im a big baby. Im not. I just dnt wanna be disappointed and out of 100+ bux again.
[Android General] 400ixl:
I would advise getting it working with the wired option as you say you have the parts for that. Get it working that way first as it is the least complex and gets you going with the free app.

Once you have that all working you can look at trying to get the miracast method working and can always just use the plug in method whilst you iron out any bugs. Area51 is also working on automating Chromecast and then Miracast within the app, so that may be the point to support him and buy the full app.

One of the best apps ever, i only have one problem.

First: VERY NICE APP!:D

Im running a X8500BT, Note 3 5.0 Lollipop with SELinux Permissive, and my touch on the HU is only working for a few minutes, then it just stops responding :S, then i have to stop ARU and allow it to reconnect, what am i doing wrong :(!
[Android General] 400ixl:
What ROM are you running. Sounds like it is dropping the comms channel. ARU works, so will be phone related.

Omega 25.1, only rom that is permissive i think, i tried to make others permissive, but it didnt work :(

EDIT: What rom etc. are people with note 3's running?
[Android General] Area51©:
What version of ARU are you running exactly?
[Android General] brugernavn:
0.24
[Android General] Area51©:
This is something that can happen if you are using a version you did not buy in the Play store.
[Android General] brugernavn:
Hmmm where can i check if its bought? , i bought the phone from one of my mates as i have a xperia Z and no mhl for it.

EDIT: just uninstalled via google play, and when i try to install it again, it gives an error!, im going to ask my friend if he did download a pirated version,. Meanwhile im going to buy it on MY google account! :).
[Android General] ikerg:
Just pay for ARUR!!!

Even area51 will do some support to old ARU, why don't you INVEST on your final solution.

You have paid for a pioneer hu (which is not cheap) in order to have an autonomous android based system and you are shaving some bucks on the only way to achieve that?

Is like buying a Ferrari but running it on local terrain roads to shave some bucks on paid highways. You will pay more to shock absorbers and wheels. (In this case is your time and the expectation to have your system running)
[Android General] Kyrillos:
I am rooted but not in permissive mode. Will do so and see whether it will work. Thanks

---------- Post added at 06:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 AM ----------

Now I am in permissive mode, but still have issues. I manage to set up the initial touchscreen thing. One thing to notice is the phone screen stays on and the resolution on the pioneer is not proper (everything is very small). I cant manage to go yo the home screen of my phone. It stays with the black screen of the program. Am I missing something?

My friend just told me he downloaded it off some russian site, im going to PM are51 with the link so he can get it pulled, im buying the app later today when im buying a new note 3.

Thanks but no need. As you noticed it doesn't work anyway.

The cracked version doesnt work, im going to buy it and see if that works, you wrote this could happen on illegal downloaded versions, and i found out mine was.

So you dont want me to buy your app? :rolleyes:
[Android General] Area51©:
I meant there's no need to have it pulled from the Russian website. Of course you are free to buy my app as much as you like. It has happened only once that there was a customer that was so annoying that I did not want him to use the app.
[Android General] brugernavn:
Allrighty then, im not going to be that costumer, i will buy it later and test it :)
[Android General] Kyrillos:
I think I managed to connect properly. One question though, in case I turn off the screen of my phone, same happens on the headunit as well. Is that the right way? I've seen some youtube videos where the phone was going off while connected to the headunit.
[Android General] 400ixl:
You need to dim the screen not switch it off. ARUR has the option in the settings (ARU does not) or you can use an app like secondscreen to automate it for you.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Appradio 3 DA110

Hi

For everyone with a Samsung S6 edge and possibly other new phones that now no longer support MHL adapters. Can a list/survey be created with which wireless adapters are supported. I'm upgrading from a HTC One M8 which had MHL support.

My question is what wireless adapters have been tried and tested that work with screen mirroring and full touchscreen support on the head unit. Also does the GPS injector still work when using wireless screen mirroring?

I can see that Krytikul has tried the Microsoft adapter and couldn't get it to work but is mostly happy how the ScreenBeam Mini2 works.

I've seen mentions of chromecasts working also. Can someone suggest what i should try first the Actiontech ScreenBeam Mini2 is a bit expensive to import to the UK. I Have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925F android version 5.0.2) on O2 rooted with Pingpong.

4100 NEX

Does anyone have any issues getting a GPS fix with the 4100NEX?

I have Mock Locations off in the settings, so that it can use the internal phone GPS- but it looks like it does not want to do so.

Is there a work around if this is a known issue?
[Android General] Area51©:
Which version are you using?
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
Guys I have a quick question... Is the app radio 2 better or 3 when it comes to functionalities/moldability??

I'll be picking one of the 2 up in a few hours and would appreciate some advice...

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Android General] Area51©:
Not much difference. The AR3 additionally supports A2DP audio streaming.
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
Thanks for that. Think I'll aim for the AR3 then as I would want the better quality sound.

Could you also explain if a Chromecast or a Amazon fire stick could be used to wirelessly mirror the screen on the Head unit? If not, what exactly is required?

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Android General] Zeets:
Thanks for the suggestions. I got mine to connect and work correctly by removing the fuse that provides 12v constant to the radio. That seems to have reset it. Does anyone have the "ok" button grayed out under System Reset? No matter what I do, I cannot get "ok" to light up.

I have noticed that I can't see video controls during playback on the AppRadio. Anyone else experience this? Maybe this is caused by Screen Standby?
[Android General] fusion600:
On my unit, the voice control works from within the phone app.

Within the phone app there is a picture of a face speaking into a mic. pressing that activates S-Voice on my unit. I use it to send sms, emails, make phone calls, make appointments, set alarms etc. anything S-Voice can do on your phone, your Appradio can do, better :D
[Android General] stargate125645:
That's what I was afraid you'd say. The phone microphone is very sensitive. It may very well so be the phone itself picking up your voice. That's how it works on the 2. How certain are you that the microphone is working from the AR2. I'd be shocked if it were. There is supposed to be a way to activate it through Pioneer's Car Media Player. It would be awesome if having ARU basically be the stock application allowed for this but I'm not holding my breath without a special effort from the developer to make it work.
[Android General] Sean_S:
You may be right. I'll test it out tomorrow.
[Android General] muchbetter:
Got the same. Video controls appears only on the phone screen, not on AR. And "double-HOME control panel" is still there, but pressing buttons causes nothing. This all about *.avi, *.mkv etc. MP4 files can be controledl with standart "double-HOME control panel".
[Android General] stargate125645:
I hope I'm not.
