Does the LG Optimus F3 work with ARU and if so what do I need to do in order to get it to work?
[Android General] jazz.fog:
I would like to ask why Appradio Unchained requests root access rights when I open browser or photo gallery?
[Android General] zombieplanalpha:
It usually requests/ notifies me of root access on startup. I don't know why either but if someone is data mining or stealing dirty pics they would probably try to appeal to more people than owners of pioneer head units. IMHO
[Android General] Area51©:
I don't know. That Pioneer app does 10 times more than is necessary anyway. So apparently opening a browser or photo gallery starts the AppRadio service which then triggers the ARU low level driver. As you can see all that root access is required for is to access the /dev/uinput device for injecting touch/key events.
[Android General] wrayvon:
Tried plugging the phone in whilst doing this, still nothing. Has anyone else had this issue? So annoying as it used to work :( Tempted to sell this headunit and buy another!
[Android General] Area51©:
Seems like a trivial issue. You should not connect anything to the HDMI input and make sure no Bluetooth connection was made to the HU. Also so no source like radio should be selected.

What did you do to the handbrake input? Is it connected?
[Android General] wrayvon:
Yeah it's just this one thing that is stopping me (I think). It just won't change to 'Others'.

I have tried with and without phone plugged in. All bluetooth connections removed and turned off. All sources turned off. Reset to factory settings. Unplugged battery and reset it that way.

I've run out of ideas :(

The handbrake has a bypass switch attached to it - some weird fuse thing the previous owner had devised - it worked before though so I doubt that's the issue?
[Android General] Area51©:
Do you have an US or EU version?
[Android General] wrayvon:
EU I would assume - I'm based in the UK
[Android General] Area51©:
Then you can just ground it to bypass it. US version needs a pulse.
[Android General] wrayvon:
Oh right, probably a bit over the top for the bypass then!

Just for the record, it's not your app that isn't working, that worked great. So thank you again for that!

It's my stereo I'm having problems with :(
[Android General] jonalowe:
For what it's worth, that status does not show on my rooted Nexus 5 running 4.4.4. There are several status messages not shown that were on older versions of Android.

Bluetooth or RF

I was thinking of getting a keyboard like the FAVI FE02RF-BL ( im open to suggestions) to use with my AppRadio 3 and MK809III but I don't know if I should buy the bluetooth version or RF version, any input would be appreciated. :silly:
[Android General] Wade-0:
So far my experience using an Asus Miracast dongle with a rooted Moto X (Dev Ed) has been pretty disappointing. Connection issues are pretty common, forcing me to have to sit for several minutes with the car idling while trying to get everything to connect and not give the annoying red X on touch input. When it is all working, the video is noticeably low quality, and the audio sounds over compressed and tinny. It actually sounds significantly better streaming over bluetooth. I'm wondering if I would have better luck with a different Miracast adapter, but it seems to be a common complaint in many of the Miracast threads I've read, so I have a feeling I would just be throwing good money after bad.

I couldn't get the ARUR app to work at all with my setup, it never connects.
[Android General] stargate125645:
The red X is a separate issue from Miracast and suggests you do not have proper root or proper permissions set and security disabled. ARUR should connect just the same as ARU, especially now with v10.
[Android General] Wade-0:
Not a root or permissions issue since it works fine with ARU. Red X issue only happens ocassionally after it auto-connects on startup, and is resolved by manually reconnecting. ARUR just goes straight to the "Waiting for connection" screen while ARUR app shows it's connected, and then the deck eventually goes to the bypass prompt. I have no idea what "Security Disabled" means on a Moto X, would you care to elaborate?
[Android General] Area51©:
There's still a connection issue which I am fixing now. The issue is that the HU can do retries when it doesn't get an answer to a message. In ARUR this is currently not supported and this results in ARUR assuming it's connected while it's not. I expect to release a fix this weekend.
[Android General] tech by trade:
Hi all, Ran into a sort of a bug with the Xperia Z1 phone dialer. My voicemail requires a password and due to the landscape position when connected to my HU, once I connect to my voicemail I am unable to press the keypad to enter my password. Not a real big issue, but does anyone know of a work around or a dialer that works in landscape mode when a call is initiated?
[Android General] Wade-0:
Just tried ARUR again since it's been a couple weeks since I last tried, and it worked this time (0.08). Miracast is still a hassle though, mostly because there doesn't seem to be any way to automate enabling the screen casting with tasker and it frequently fails to reconnect on its own.
[Android General] miatawnt2b:
is there any way to exit back to the main screen of the appradio2 after connecting? I am using a chromecast instead of the MHL cable and the only way i've found to exit the apps is to disable bluetooth on the phone.

If I double press the home button on the radio, I do get a radio mix popup, but still no way to exit to main screen that I have found.

also, I have one of these for my TV.

http://www.amazon.com/Importer520-Adapter-Samsung-Galaxy-MHL-enabled/dp/B00HS5DHWS/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1414130266&sr=8-2&keywords=samsung+s3+mhl+cable

it works great on my TV, but not at all on the appradio. Anyone have any idea why that would be?

[Android General] Area51©:
You have to open ARU (actually the Pioneer app) and then press home. AppRadio Unchained Reloaded (completely Pioneer-less app that is currently in beta) has a widget for that.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Pioneer interface does not have this feature.

Try an app like conf call dialler and put the codes into that to automate it.
[Android General] Area51©:
I read at another thread that the handbrake not being applied or bypassed can cause the settings to be greyed out.
[Android General] sshams95:
Verizon HTC One M8 here. I've been using this app successfully for the past few months using a rooted 4.4.2 ROM. I updated to a 4.4.4. rooted ROM yesterday and today tried out the screen mirroring on the NEX8000, which always worked.

Now, my screen display is shrunk, where the top and bottom are blacked out. This is not an ARU issue, I see the same reduced size on the HDMI source as well. Just wanted to see if anyone here would know why my MHL settings is reducing the screen size.

Smartphone AV calibration is unchanged, the same settings as before....full screen.
[Android General] desantim:
Unless I am missing a boat, there is a setting that allows for the screen adjustment on the head unit itself. I remember my 4000 required this to show correctly. Maybe you just got lucky the first go around not requiring it. Can't remember the exact steps, but it basically allows you the stretch the image out on the head unit using arrows to fit it correctly.

Give it a go!
[Android General] zr2ee:
My current throught is to get hdmi splitter so i can choose either a chromecast connection or mhl connection. They are cheap and have auto switching options, Still need to figure how to automate a screen cast, i know tasker has some tasks to replicate screen touch events. Chromecast hasn't worked solid enough for me to deem it the only way to connect
[Android General] Bartleby3004:
I just finished installed the appradio 3 in my car and i launched aru and everything seemed to be working good until i went to use the touch screen on the head unit and when i touched it a little hand with an x next to it popped up and i couldn't do anything have you experienced this? Btw in running an htc one m8 with stock sense Rom. Thanks
[Android General] 400ixl:
Have you rooted and given ARU SU permissions?
[Android General] miatawnt2b:

[Android General] abeggs:
I have found that on mine, I had to add a switch along with a relay to get options to show up. I used the wiring from a youtube video. link below. time 1:41 to view relay. What I added was a little switch that went from the pin 30 to switch and then back to the green wire. I flip the switch and i'm able to go into settings, i flip it back and screen mirroring turns back on. Hope this helps.

Change Selinux back to permissive

My setup was the Sprint Galaxy S4 SPH - L720 running Jellybean 4.3 NAE firmware & Pioneer Appradio 3. Long story short, I soft bricked my phone trying to upgrade to a Negaman's Rom & Kernal. Found the stock NAE firmware and flashed through Odin to get back running. Since i had already been rooted since Nov 2013, unbeknownst to me there was a new upgrade out. Now I'm running running Kitkat 4.4.2 NG2 firmware. I used to be able to use terminal and command

pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid

Commands to enable permission for use with my Pioneer Appradio 3. But now SeLinux says enforcing and commands don't work. So that's my fault for not checking first. Now my question is, is can I roll back to Jellybean 4.3 or is there a Rom and/or Kernal that will change SeLinux from enforcing to permissive for the Sprint variant of the Galaxy S4 Sph-L720. I don't need a bunch of features, I just need to get back to permissive. I've seen similar for other GS4 variants, the GS5, & even the Note 3, just nothing for Sprint. Has development ceased for the Sprint GS4? Is all hope lost? Any suggestions or forum suggestions?
[Android General] abeggs:
Go check the XDA sprint S4 forum. i'm sure you will be able to find a Kernel that will put it into permissive. I did a search for sprint note 3 permissive kernel is how i found the one that i'm using. go check this out. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2679913

Morning all. I finally managed to fix my annoying head unit issue. So for reference, if anyone has a problem with their stereo in that they can't change the mode to 'other' rather than iPhone it may be the same issue I have. I had to take the stereo back out and remove the handbrake bypass switch that was attached. Then I could change the mode and then it off again to put the switch back in. All sorted now and working.

Thank you all for patience

Hi guys,

I have the Oneplus one and I am trying to control its using the ARUnchained app with no luck. The app successfully connects to my Pioneer App radio 3 unit and apps load but I have no control the touch screen function does not work.

I have done the activation process as well (the white dots on the screen) which worked successfully. But as soon as I load into the app itself nothing works unless I control it directly from the phone.

My setup is the Oneplus One 4.4.4

Netgear Push2tv 3000

Pioneer Appradio 3.

Am I missing a step? Does the Oneplus One need additional modification?

Any help would be great.

Partial success with AVIC-F960DAB/Nexus5

Hi

I got your app partially working with the above mentioned hardware.

Device:

rooted Nexus 5 4.4.4.

ARU 016a.apk

aru gps injektor and busybox.

Slimportadapter from ebay.

Pioneer AVIC-F960DAB

The device connects and is fully usable through the F960DAB.

Both audio and video works.

However, the picture from the phone does not fill up the screen on the F960.

There is a horisontal black stripe both above and below the picture.

There is also a vertical stripe in the left field of the screen wich contains pioneer soft keys(return, home, source change++)

EDIT: I see that the vertical stripe is supposed to be there

Does anyone have a tip on how to make the screen "fill up" 100%

I will donate if I get this working 100%

regards

You can make the sidebar disappear by pressing the home button twice.

For adjusting the screen see page 115 of the English user manual. I do not speak Norwegian so you have to find it yourself in the Norwegian user manual.

You have to set the BT connection to Others on the HU. If after you connect and did calibration, touch doesn't work anymore you need to get SELinux in permissive mode.

ARU with Allshare Cast Dongle

Ok so I'm trying something new that maybe you can shed some light on. Here's what I'm working with

Phone-Verizon S5 Developers Edition

ROM-Extreme Syndicate v1

Kernel-Blaze™ Kernel for 8974pro chips

here's what I'm running into. If I'm using a stock kernel I only get touch response on the screen that calibrates the screen, after that I get no touch response at all. But I don't get the little finger with the X on it saying no touchy. But, i can at least get the Allshare Cast dongle to connect and operate my p hone that way.

If I use a custom kernel ARU works perfectly when plugged directly into the radio as it should. But allshare cast dongle won't connect at all.

Any ideas?

Thanks a ton!

Ive installed the drivers 100 times now and still nothing. I am about to give up.

Sorry in advance if this has been covered already. When I go to install my downloaded version arunchained, I try to use the stock packet installer which sees arunchained with the same signature as the original appradio and refuses to install it. Do I need a different installer or am I just doing it wrong? Thanks

EDIT: I think I found the answer to my question in that you must uninstall the original app before installing ARU. I thought I had read elsewhere that ARU was an add on to the original. Anyone that can touch on this is appreciated.

After more research I found the ported rom for G2, OptimusG3 1.4 has a resolution of 1080x1803 at 480dpi. I changed the res to 1080x1911at 480dpi with noMone resolution changer and ended up with 1080x1794 at 480dpi. Which gives me the standard size icons.

I dont know why I had to oversize it but thats what worked.
[Android General] Area51©:
It's the original app modded. The app needs to be signed and obviously I can't sign it with the key from Pioneer. That's why you can't do an update of the Pioneer app as Android discovers it's signed with two different keys.
[Android General] simonrob77:
+1 on this one. I have the same issue with a galaxy S4, 4.4.2. For some reason samsung stop screen mirroring from working if the kernel is not stock. This creates a bit of an issue with ARU as the touch stops working after calibration, and the only way to get it to work is to use a custom kernel.

Has anyone else managed to get aru working through a miracast dongle on a Samsung?

I've just installed ARUnchained to my LG G3 and I got it to work pretty well with forcing it in to landscape mode when connected with Tasker.

I have a question about Screen Saver, how do I disable this? As it is now when the phones screen saver kicks in and shuts of the screen the same thing happens on the AR3 I have, kind of expected but how does I disable that and still let it turn of the screen on the phone but stay on on the AR3.

I did try with the Screen Standby app but it didn't seem to work at all on my G3, it did hang when checking for root access.

THL T6 Pro + Pioneer AVH-X8600BT

Hi,

I'm currently using my iPhone with AppRadio and really unhappy with it for multiple reasons. (I wish there would be some like AR Unchained for iPhone.)

I would like to ask, if anyone had such combination THL T6 Pro + Pioneer AVH-X8600BT?

I already have Pioneer AVH-X8600BT and planning to get THL T6 Pro, which I'm thinking always to keep in car connected, and use my iPhone as actual phone and WIFI hub for THL T6 Pro.

So my question is, has anyone used AR Unchained with combination THL T6 Pro + Pioneer AVH-X8600BT and are there any issues I should be worried about?

Or could anyone propose better combination in similar price range?
