I tried doing mirroring with my Chromecast using Koush's beta Mirror app awhile ago.

Will it does mirror OK, the latency and lag is horrible.

Plus it needs to be on same WiFi network so that makes it tricky in the car environment.

In addition, that Chromecast dongle is huge. It won't fit in back of my radio.

Working for Verizon S5 Dev Edition...mostly

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this.... 500+ pages was hard to sort through.

I got ARU to work great outside of the pioneer part of the app. In the Pioneer GUI it still has glitches, the graphics flash. But when the phone is being mirrored its works perfect. Touch works, and the graphics are smooth.

If you have Verizon S5 Dev edition, I installed this Rom

then flashed this Kernel

and it works like a charm.

Sorry if this is a repost, but hope it helps some people.

Best way to avoid this is to run a HDMI extension cable from the back of the headunit into the cabin. This way you can make changes to the input without having to rip the dash apart to get to the back of the headunit. Plus, saves space behind the HU if you have a bulky device.

has anyone found a good way for audio using miracast? I'm using a belkin miracast adapter with a moto x. The audio stutters about every 20 seconds. Has anyone found away to do audio over bluetooth but video over hdmi?
[Android General] cisco150:
me too i returned the Pioneer SPH-DA210 AppRadio 3 and got the avh-4000nex and its great radio. but the Pioneer SPH-DA210 AppRadio 3 screen is sick but no video out and ipod or usb play back.
[Android General] ikerg:
Does the 4000nex have internal GPs?

[Android General] desantim:
It does not, you can add the optional GPS module to the unit but I plan on using the GPS of my phone.
[Android General] Area51©:
Yes, it will be open till the release version is available in the Play store.

I wanted to do an alpha release this week but it will be next week. Still ironing out some issues that I don't want to bother the users with. That alpha won't support the 4000NEX yet. I just added the AR2 protocol yesterday and also added a generic way of adding more protocols easily so once I have a logging of the 4000NEX communication I can add it in a few hours.

I will write a more detailed progress report later today.
[Android General] Area51©:
Did you already upgrade the belkin to the latest firmware?
[Android General] Area51©:
Even if you add an optional GPS module, I don't think it will send GPS data to your phone in AppRadio mode. Even the NEX8000 doesn't do that. Presumably Pioneer wants to sell you map updates.

Yesterday when working on the communication protocol, I found a way to stop the AR3 from sending GPS data. Makes me think there might be a way to get a NEX8000 to send GPS data. But then again it may not be possible, really depends on the HU firmware.
[Android General] marktrav44:
Yes, I have version 2.4 running on the belkin. I also thought it could be an issue with the proximity of the two devices but moving the belkin closer to the phone did not result in better music quality.

[MENTION=5417637]Area51©[/MENTION] i have also asked the rom developer this question as it is obviously an issue there but... Any idea how to get the physical front buttons on the appradio2 working if they are not? Running an lgg2 d801 on Mahdi rom. Other roms work. Hoping this might be a developer settings item i need to check off that you know of the top of your head.

The app is great many thanks for your hard work. I did not hesitate purchasing the GPS injector app and look forward to future development. Thanks
[Android General] Area51©:
I tried to trace this with another XDA member. He tried with 2 roms, one working and one not working. I that case events were injected fine, just somehow not processed. Could you try with another app that injects key events, like this one called "Floating Soft Keys *ROOT*"? I am curious to see if those events are picked up by your rom.
[Android General] desantim:
Yes, this is true, I should have been more clear, for now I plan on using my Cell Phone as the GPS receiver and use Waze or Google Maps as my primary GPS software.

If/When I decide to buy a stand alone GPS upgrade, the AVIC-U250 is a plug in GPS module that is an actual GPS replacement, software interface and all, it does not coincide or work in conjunction with the phone at all, but is on the radio side the GPS unit. It has its own maps loaded into it, and waypoint data, phone plugged in or not, it works. It'll all depend how reliable my new install will be with the 4000nex.

---------- Post added at 05:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:53 AM ----------

I would like to offer my services if you need someone to help with getting the 4000nex up and supported. PM me if there's something I can do to help, Unit will be here Tuesday, likely installed Tuesday as well, I'm not nearly as patient as I should be.

Anybody tried Android L preview?

Connection is working and screen calibration is working. However after calibration I have no touch input. Any ideas?

EDIT: Did the su knox terminal emilator stuff from the FAQ, but that messed up my Android installation
[Android General] leobg:
That L supposedly has Samsung's Knox integrated, which surely is a bad sign...
[Android General] petard:
Any way to get Android auto to show up? Or is it not included in the L preview at all?
[Android General] theyownus:
thanks for the response.

"Floating Soft Keys *ROOT*" works on the appradio2 no problem... any other ideas?
[Android General] freenfast:
Can anyone who has ARU working with an M8 confirm what ROM they are using?

I have Mirrorlink working OK with Insertcoin 3.06 but HDMI with an MHL adapter does not work with a TV OR Appradio 3 with the std Pioneer AR or ARU . Connecting to a TV with the HDMI lead and same MHL adapter on stock ROM did work, so I assume HDMI/MHL is broken in the Insertcoin ROM.
[Android General] Vin87:
Android Auto is a completely different system. The car should be equipped with Android Auto and can communicate with your phone.
[Android General] petard:
They said in the keynote that it is cast to the car from your phone. If that's true then it should be possible to get it to run with root.
[Android General] Noob_I'm_Not:
I'm running Viper on my M8, and all is well!

N_I_N
[Android General] leobg:
Not exactly casting screen. I guess it is some sort of VNC style connectivity like Nokia did some time ago. Phone screen is disabled during car mode - shows just one big letter 'a'. I'm 99% sure they don't use HDMI for this. Without the proper client (the head unit supporting this mode) there is no way it will work, rooted or not.

---------- Post added at 11:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

Stock sense - works. MHL adapter is tricky - sometimes phone switches to USB host mode instead MHL. Need to unplug and plug again. Charging often gets messed up too until reboot or plugging an USB thumb drive in/out. Might be my MHL adapter though.

Soon will switch to either GPE or preferred - CM11 (once the bugs it has get ironed out)
[Android General] petard:
Sounds like complete speculation. Do you have any real reason to believe that? I looked but found basically no documentation for Android auto.

EDIT: I looked again and some limited developer documentation is now available.

http://developer.android.com/auto/overview.html#emulator

From that page:

Testing Your App on an Android Device

The Android Auto SDK includes an APK with a media client implementation, which is similar to those available in compatible vehicles. To test your app with this client:

Get an Android device with a similar form factor to a dashboard screen (like a Nexus 7).

Configure the device for Android development.

Install the APK for the media client from the Android Auto SDK on the device.

Install the APK for your app on the device.

Open the media client app from the Android Auto SDK on the device.

Select your app from the list of available services.

The customized UI for your app appears on the client. You can navigate the content library and play media. If your app provides app-specific actions, these actions appear in the UI controls.

Looks like you'll be able to launch the car mode UI without even being in a car. So this should definitely be able to work even without an officially supported head unit.
[Android General] leobg:
Indeed it is a speculation. Above information makes it even more firm they're not using HDMI. And it makes sense. Why waste so much power for such a high bandwidth protocol as HDMI? It requires extra hardware support too. With software connection such as VNC it would be more efficient and will not require HDMI connectivity from either device. Just a standard USB port.
[Android General] petard:
I don't see how that helps to disprove the usage of HDMI. If anything it would slightly suggest that they do use a video output since the apps can be rendered on the device's screen. VNC is terribly inefficient, have you actually ever used it? Just terrible.

Either way, it doesn't matter how it is officially done. The SDK allows you to run the apps right on the device's screen which is mirrored via HDMI to the AppRadio. That alone shows that it should be totally possible to use the android auto UI without having an officially supported head unit since you can just run it via the SDK.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Haven't seen much talk of 4.4.4 yet, probably because few devices have it. But I have updated to it and its all working fine, even via the OTA route.

I restored the stock kernel, uninstalled Xposed framework and then took the OTA update. Using the Wugfresh Toolkit I re-rooted the phone and re-installed the Xposed framework.

I have left it as stock kernel for now, but switched davlik to ART as it doesn't look like there will be a choice with Android L so want to check all my apps out again. Even ScreenStandby is still working :)

Will try it with Franco Kernel once I know it is all stable on stock.

So I got it working FINALLY!! It connects to Bluetooth, I flip the switch and everything works flawlessly all but touch control on the appradio? I can control it with my phones screen but wanted to know what I could do to fix this? I'm using a Galaxy S5 flashed to AllianceROM and I'm connecting to SPH-DA100
[Android General] 400ixl:
Did you do a search on this thread? There must be 100+ posts on your issue by now.

Samsung phones need SELinux put in permissive mode. You will need to do the research yourself on the best fix as it is dependant on the model, country and carrier as to whether touch can be enabled.
[Android General] ayalah1986:
I went through about 20 pages and only read of one guy getting it to work on their S5... ive seen theres the s4 SELinux but not too sure for the newer model, any other Galaxy S5 out there working 100%??

HTC one M8

So much reading on my end but there are so many pages and i'll continue to read.But as I do that i just need to ask one question before I continue to try and get this working.

I have a HTC One M8(AT&T) Stock rooted,s-off,stock kernel..I do have Xposed for some tweaks in sense..I have gotten the phone connected through bluetooth for phone calls and media control through the radio.I have also gotten the radio to mirror my phone display but I can not interact with my phone through the head unit(App Radio 3) with this app or any other app for that matter.The connection on the head unit shows that im connected to bluetooth on the phone icon of the head unit.But where it says "apps" has an X showing it's not connected(I can still make and receive phone calls through the radio).

This is the kit I am using for my head unit http://tinyurl.com/ogqcrnz

Is this kit the same as most people are using?I just dont want to continue forward if this kit isn't what I should be using.If this kit is okay then i'm really at a loss as to how I can get interaction from my head unit from my phone.Any help will be appreciated because I really wan't to keep this radio..I will continue to read and hope to find a solution.

***SCRATCH THAT,FOUND MY PROBLEM ON PAGE 389***

Now can this thing work with my phone screen off?
[Android General] rockyminator:
Hello everyone. I tried reading through as many posts as I could (I mean there are over 500 pages..) but couldn't find the answer. I have a Pioneer Avic-8000NEX and a samsung Galaxy S4 running kitkat 4.4.2. I rooted the phone using towelroot and checked it using root checker basic. I also downloaded appradio unchained onto the phone. When the navi was installed, an HDMI cable was plugged in, and so was the Pioneer CD-MU200 MirrorLink Interface Cable for AppRadio 3. Those both plugs into a genuine samsung MHL connector (Samsung ET-H10FAUWESTA Micro USB to HDMI).

Now.. the issue.. I cannot for the life of me get appradio unchained or appradio to WORK!!! I went into the settings and changed the smart phone settings to other instead of apple/ipod. I tried the "HDMI" option, the "USB" option, and the "BT Wireless" option. I have it all plugged in properly. Even tried connecting to bluetooth first then plugging it in... Bluetooth works flawlessly.. even pandora and aha radio works. But I can't get the app button on the unit itself to work. It just says APP with an X under it. When I try the "HDMI" option in the settings, the appradio will say connected on the phone... but doesn't enable anything on the unit screen... and for the "USB" and "BT Wireless options, appradio (on the phone that is) will only say ready to connect but won't actually connect. :eek:

I can't for the life of me figure out how to get this thing to work.. I want to be able to mirror my phone on screen so I can use the phone apps straight on the pioneer unit, but can't figure out how to enable apps... Someone please help?:fingers-crossed:
[Android General] BrianBaker:
EDIT: Sorry you did what I did by switching to Other but it seemed to not work for you..Worked on my M8 man
[Android General] Noob_I'm_Not:
Yes, you should be able to do it. I'm running A Sprint M8, with Viper rom and even a modified version of Elemental X kernel. For screen blanking, I am using SecondScreen. I've now got the whole thing automated to start up, connect, run Waze, and then ask if I'm ready to blank the screen.

I'm using Automagic to do the automation. Very powerful, and easier to get a grasp on than Tasker.

I'm not saying that it was always smooth sailing to get here, but it now works almost without fail.

AppRadio Unchained Reloaded progress

Progress for the alpha release:

Working:

- Communication protocol for following devices:

AppRadio3

AppRadio2

Implemented also a generic class that allows to add other protocols quickly

- Support GPS(integrated GPS injector), Touch, HU keys, SWCs

- Wake lock

- Rotation locker

- Auto mock locations

- Notifications

- Widget for return to HU

- Configuration settings

To do:

- Clean up logging

- Start at boot

- Clean up GUI a bit & show status information

Edit: Start at boot is also working now.

Really works great with my HDMI stick, after switching on the HU, the stick gets power, boots & auto connects in 50 seconds total time. Only have to hit ok on the first caution screen.

HU Touchscreen Doesn't Work When Mirrored

Let me start by apologizing if my issues have already been answered. I tried to do a search of the thread and read the thread but I didn't see where this had been addressed.

I'm using:

Pioneer AppRadio 3 (SPH-DA210)

Google Nexus 5 (rooted) running kitkat 4.4.4 (KTU84P)

ARU (beta release 6)

ARU Injector

I have 2 issues with ARU:

1. I sometimes have problems getting ARU to connect to the HU. I've noticed that if I turn off Bluetooth before connecting the HDMI cable and turning on the radio, it solves this problem. (My phone says that an application wants to turn on Bluetooth; I press "Allow" and Bluetooth connects, then ARU connects and my phone is mirrored on the HU.) Not a major problem, just a bit annoying trying to remember to turn off Bluetooth before starting the car. (Yes, I know that I could install a tasker app to automatically turn off Bluetooth, but it seems like ARU shouldn't require this.)

2. When my phone is mirrored, the touchscreen on the HU does not work; I still have to navigate using the touchscreen on my phone. When I first connected ARU, it gave me the calibration screen and everything seemed fine but then hasn't worked since. Note that the HU touchscreen works just fine when it isn't mirroring my phone.

Again, sorry if these questions have already been answered. Also, let me know if you need any more information.

Thanks for your help!
[Android General] Area51©:
1) This issue is because of slight incompatibility between the Bluetooth stacks of the HU and the phone. Toggling Bluetooth is a great workaround that is included in the AppRadio Unchained Reloaded app that I am developing now. The app will do this automatically upon connection.

2) On A Nexus 5 when Bluetooth is connected properly, it could only be that there's no proper root acces. Calibration doesn't require root but once that's done touch requires root access.
[Android General] 400ixl:
If it worked previously, but not after a reboot, then try going in and clearing ARU data. I have to do this after a reboot on my N5 for touch to work again.

Bluetooth is usually down to the connection order and starting order with the car.

Compatible with S4 4.4.2 and 6000NEX?

Can anyone tell me if this app will work with the following combo?

Deck: Pioneer 6000NEX

Phone: Samsung S4 on verizon with 4.4.2

I have the pioneer CD-AH200 kit as well as the Samsung white MHL adapter.

I can get screen mirroring to work on my S4 but the pioneer AppRadio app will not work, when i called pioneer they said it wasn't compatible with 4.4.2 and Im out of luck unless I can get 4.2 back (which I don't think I can)

Anyone have any input, I feel like the $700 I spent in this deck does not justify itself if I cant even use the AppRadio mode.

im using the HDMI lead with a slimport adapter and a power lead into the USB

[Android General] 400ixl:
Sounds like a root issue.or permissions. Has ARU been granted permissions in SuperSU?

Other thing to try is to go into settings - apps - ARU and clear App Data
[Android General] adamsilver1987:
it never came up and asked for superuser permission, so ive checked the superuser bit under settings and it doesnt show there. running ParanoidAndroid Version 4.3-BETA4
[Android General] ayalah1986:
So how much do u donate to get beta ALPHA access?? Lol
[Android General] 400ixl:
If its not showing as an approved app in SuperSU then the app hasn't got root permissions and touch won't work. It atually shows as jp.pioneer.mbg.appradio.appradioservice on mine.

You could try uninstalling the app, then re-installing and granting permissions when it asks. You need to make sure SuperSU is set to ask, of you could just set the defualt to grant and see if it then works.
[Android General] royalh:
$20 or more, iirc...

Has the G+ group been created yet? Will the cost for the final Reloaded app be more than $20 do you think?
[Android General] adamsilver1987:
tried uninstalling the app, went to superuser access and there are 4 options... Disabled, Apps only, ADB only or Apps and ADB. selected the last one. and now it wont even connect via bluetooth. starts conecting, gets to 75% and fails.

gna throw it out the window shortly haha
[Android General] 400ixl:
That isn't SuperSU, what app are you using, is it the chainsDD one?

What process did you use to root your phone and have you got other apps that need root working?

It has already connect on Bluetooth by the time it gets to 75%
[Android General] adamsilver1987:
used nexus root toolkit. this is the screen that comes up when i access the superuser menu.

[IMG="IMAGE"]http://s14.postimg.org/gbbnoh369/Screenshot_2014_06_30_21_11_33.png[/IMG]

it came up and asked for permision when i installed ARunchained. but wouldnt work still. so uninstalled and tried he standard pioneer app and that doesnt work now either :(

not really tried other root software other than power event manager which seems to work fine. ( using kangaroo kernel )
[Android General] 400ixl:
Not used that App, I use SuperSU. Is that screen per application, or the generic settings, appears to be a generic one.

How do you see what individual apps have been granted SU permission?

If the OEM app isn't working, then uninstall, delete bluetooth pairing on both and start again. I'd also go back to a stock kernel to make sure all is good.

Have seen quite a few people get odd results with the Nexus Root Toolkit. I have found the Wugfresh Toolkit to be much more reliable.
[Android General] adamsilver1987:
whats the best way to get delete the kernels and run stock ? do you mean stock ROM or kernel ?

and thats using the generic settings. theresa menu that allows you to see/edit the allowed apps

thanks
[Android General] 400ixl:
Stock ROM and Kernel to start, get it all working and then possibly look at other options when you have a working base.

Wugfresh toolkit can put back the OEM kernel.
