You should really use the thread for the full app then http://xdaforums.com/general/paid-software/android-4-0-root-appradio-unchained-t2955966

The full app has a diagnostic in it, what does that say.

I assume you have the mode set to other and not HDMI on the HU and are going into the Appmode on the HU?

Can anyone tell me if with the new update v0.24 if you still need to change the SELinux on the note 2 or 3 before I buy one thanks
[Android General] 400ixl:
All free versions need you to change it, the paid version doesn't. As long as you get a Note that you can root and has an unlocker bootloader you will be OK.
[Android General] Blackfox123:
I have the paid version but I'm using it on my LG g2 that requires (Slimport) that do not last 3 or 4 now in the last 2 months and I can't just buy slimports at my local stores So I'm looking for something different.. I know how to root but what's (unlocker bootloader)? sorry for the multiple post I just don't want to buy and phone and I can't get it to work
[Android General] 400ixl:
What makes you think a Samsung MHL led will last longer? They tend not to.

How do you place the phone in the car, is the slimport lead bent within 3" of the phone? If so this will cause issues (and will be the same for an MHL lead). Also, are you getting the slimports with the short lead, or the ones with the longer ones?

Typically a slimport adapter (or MHL) should be lasting you about 12-18 months or so. Mine certainly do on the N5 which is an LG as well.
[Android General] Blackfox123:
I've tried 3 short leads and it's in my center console with no kink and it takes 15 to 30 days to get a new one. I have a long lead one coming soon I hope and According the a member the Canadian version of cell phones have bootloader unlocked
[Android General] carbon14c:
quick question, i think i found my answer by searching through this thread and looking on the google play store, but i just want to double check here.

at this time, ONLY head units that support appradio functionality via HDMI work with this app, correct? my 7000 series which supports appradio via USB will not work?

i loaded it up and the headunit thinks i do not have the app running on my phone, but normal appradio functionality works fine with the original supplied app.

sorry if this has been covered already, can't find a straight answer -_- debating swapping my HU out for one of the HDMI ones so i can mirror if this is the case
[Android General] Area51©:
Just checked the specifications from the Pioneer website and according to those the 7000NEX has an HDMI input so it should be possible to use it.
[Android General] carbon14c:
my post was misleading, i added a 0. i have the AVH-X3700BHS. i'm actually looking at an AVIC6000NEX right now which should work pretty well. been reading up on this all night, didn't even know it was possible to have this kind of functionality with my android phones. super excited lol

i can still return this unit, so i might do that or sell it and grab the HDMI capable 6000. it looks like that one has the exact same interface/gui as mine, and i really like the way this one is setup.

looks like the overall favorite in the survey is the AR series... hopefully this one will work out great too. i am pretty sure my dad has the 7 or 8000 NEX, he is using chromecast with his. i'm going to try ARU on my note 3 with his unit and see how it does. i know he wanted this functionality in the beginning, i told him to try chromecast... using an android hdmi stick or just his phone might be a better option i think.

What is the current best method to use Appradio4, ARUnchained (reloaded), and a Rooted / romed S6 edge?
[Android General] rigattoni:
Bad idea to buy a Samsung S6...

Samsung decided to "forget" to implement MHL.

That means, you never will get your S6 working with the AppRadio and ARUnchained.

The only way to get your phone mirrored on your AppRadio is to use a Chromecast adapter to mirror the S6.
[Android General] Kaczman:
Ok, so I've already read about using the allshare dongle or ScreenBeam Mini2... so does anyone with experience have anything to add?
[Android General] 400ixl:
Unfortunately not, root is an absolute requirement for ARU and ARUR
[Android General] cjxx:
Is this still true? and no way around?

Another thing you can try:

Install an app called Android Terminal and give it root rights with SuperSU.

Open a command line shell by starting Android Terminal app.

Type: su

and press enter key

Type: ls -l /dev/uinput

and press enter key

Then it should show something like:

crw-rw-rw- system bluetooth 10, 223 2013-10-17 07:53 uinput

If it doesn't show that but this:

/dev/uinput: No such file or directory

then it will never work.
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
All share is essentially the same thing as miracast, so it should work with any miracast device. IV been trying to find a standard myself to get working as I need to connect a Nexus5 which has slimport, and a OnePlus which has no mhl nor a slimport.

First thing I used was a Chromecast, which I found extremely irritating that is has to have the WiFi hotspot to do anything, not to mention once you set the hotspot to one phone, you can't use the other unless the primary hotspot phone is also there.

Second thing I used is the Amazon Fire Stick which has miracast, but its very annoying to go into settings and turn on cast screen every time, plus the connection is less than optimal, with the audio sometimes being very very choppy.

Third thing I'm going with, which I think I saw someone on youtube try with their S6 as well was, to use a netgear PTV3000 widi adaptor thing(which also has miracast). It worked perfect for them as far as the mirroring is concerned. I'll hopefully be getting mine tomorrow in the mail, so will report back on how that is.

What is the problem you are trying to solve?
[Android General] alexRC:
Hi krytikul, thank you so much for your helpful informations.

After I read this post (thanks to Area51 for the link) I purchased ScreenBeam Mini2 and I love this wireless solution (I hated connect my Note 3 at MHL every time!). I suggest this solution to everyone!!!

At this time I have only 2 issues, 1 of this critical:

1 - Critical: audio streaming is often disturbed... randomly I have 3-4 minutes good and then 15 secs of problems like radio interferences; I tried to change both the s6 and the ScreenBeam positions but the problem remain. This is very frustrating because I always listen to music with different players (spotify, playerpro for local mp3 and TuneIn Radio) and the problem occours with each player. Do you have the same problem? Do you know how I can solve it??? I specify that with HU original bluethoot streaming I haven't this problem playng the same smartphone local mp3

2 - Less Critical: I purchased Tasker, because the possible to connect automatically the s6 to HU is the icing on the cake :) The problem in this case is that I have to unlock the phone to correctly connect to ScreenBeam with automatic task. If it is a required step the useful of tasker is canceled (if I have to unlock the phone, with an additional tap I can activate the screen mirroring manually). Do you have the same problem?

Thank you in advance!

hI 400ixl thanks.

I have examined the subject and finally I chose the miracast solution and I am very satisfied, but I only have the 2 problems described in the previous post... can you help me please?

Thank you in advance! :p
[Android General] krytikul:
I'll try my best to help you out.

This happens to me rarely. It's distorted a few times since I've set it up for a few seconds at a time. Every 3-4 minutes is not good!

Try hooking up the ScreenBeam to a TV and see if you still have this issue. If you do, I would suggest getting a replacement.

Also, what cellular carrier are you using?

Since getting the phone I've further customized my Tasker profile for my AppRadio. After connecting to the AppRadio's bluetooth it automatically turns on the screen, unlocks it, connects to the ScreenBeam, and then plays music.

[IMG="New tasker Setup"]http://puu.sh/iuZkO/e71e4c0359.png[/IMG]

To achieve this you will need to setup a new task(or modify the current one) with the following commands :

NOTES: For all shell commands "Use Root" must be checked. If you are using a code lock or fingerprint lock you will need to add the AppRadio as a trusted device in system settings.

1. Under the code section, use the Run Shell with the command : input keyevent KEYCODE_HOME

2. Use Wait for 2 seconds to allow the phone to respond to the command and initialize the capacitive touch sensor.

3. Use run shell again with the command : input touchscreen swipe 300 300 1000 1000 300

4. Use Launch app to launch the second "Cast Screen" app.

5. Use Wait for 10 seconds to give the phone time to connect to the ScreenBeam.

6. Use run shell again with the command : input keyevent KEYCODE_MEDIA_PLAY

That's it! You should be up and running!

If you have any more questions, feel free to ask.

Which head unit to buy?

Best,

I would like to mirror the screen of my Acer Liquid E3 to the creen of the head unit AND control all the apps of my smartphone with the Pioneer screen.

After some reading I think the Appradio Unchained app could be a solution. Because the Pioneer AppRadio 2 or 3 aren't availble anymore, I have to buy a new type.

I searched all over the topic, but couldn't find a straigth answer.

Does the AppRadio Unchained app work with these radio's?

-AVH-X8700BT

-AVH-X7700BT

-AVH-X2700BT

-AVH-X5700DAB

-AVH-X3700DAB

If I read it well, the new generation is connected via USB and not via HDMI?

Also, if I want to use a Android Stick instead of my smartphone, would it be possible to connect my smartphone with the stick, so I could call handsfree?

(And when my brother drives my car he could still use the GPS and other apps)

Thanks in advance,

Kevin

[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
The supported head units are the ones that support "Android Appmode"

If you are to check the OP, you will find a survey, and within that survey you will see various head units people have gotten to work.

Also, I don't think the mirroring works via just USB, an HDMI connection is also needed I think, tho not sure, as all these Android sticks/Chromecast/fire stick all run via HDMI, USB is for power.

[Android General] 400ixl:
Android AppRadio Mode WITH HDMI input is essential. ARU/ARUR does not work with a HU which only has this mode via Mirrorlink.

The 2700BT is an example of a Mirrorlink only unit which does not work with ARU/R. The 8700BT is an example which will work with ARU/R as it has HDMI input.

Look in the connections section on the Pioneer website for a HU

http://www.pioneer.eu/eur/products/25/109/281/AVH-X2700BT/specs.html does not list HDMI

You connect both to the head unit rather than the phone to the stick.

Miracast - mobile internet

Is it possible to mirror the screen via Miracast and use the mobile internet (4G/3G) at the same time? I have OnePlus One and currently i'm using Chromecast with the AVH-X8600BT and ARUR 0.24. I need to start the Wi-Fi hot-spot every time. I have hope that Miracast will solve my problem with the connection. Chromecast breaks the connection when my phone switches between 4G and 3G. By the connection I mean screencast.
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
Yea I'm using a miracast... No problems with Data interference, so your good on that front.

A problem tho that I AM having is the audio is getting very choppy, mainly when I'm running gmaps and streaming or even listening to music saved to the phone. Anyone also having this problem or know a way around it??

Hey man,

can you suggest what is the best and cheaper but useful model of appradio to work with it?

I saw appradio 1 on a video review and it was going great , and the review was of 2013!

Thanks a lot
[Android General] ruben__:
Appradio 3, without a doubt. Just see if you can score a good second hand unit and if you are inpatient I strongly recommend to be patient because it will be worth it.

With what phone / stick are you planning to use the AR and are you going to use ARU or ARU Reloaded?

I have a Find 7a OPPO, rooted and with Cyanogenmod 12.1 (android 5.1.1)

[Android General] ruben__:
Hey guys I just wanted to share this with you because apparently different cables will have a different effect on charging. I don't want to make this too long of a post but I want this to be as complete as possible.

So last week my Samsung MHL 5-pin adapter decided to malfunction after 3 months of service. It seems that the powersupply port was messed up which resulted in a disconnnected MHL signal when the bloody thing moved in the dash. To clean things up a bit I purchased a 3 piece MHL cable with a 1 meter extension to avoid the mess I had with the Samsung adapter in the dash. > picture http://www.okaphone.nl/product/images/VLMP39010B.JPG

To supply the power from the headunit to the mhl cable I used a cheap 'usb to mini-usb' cable which I had laying around in the car as a backup. Apparently something had happened to it because the mhl cable wasn't able to charge or maintain the amount of power of the phone while connected and in use with Sygic. With Poweramp and without the use of any other app, it did charge but very slowly and it discharged rather fast after removing it from the 'charger'.

So to see what was going on I installed the app 'ampere' which allows you to see how much mA the phone charges or discharges. With the faulty cable it would only charge between 30/70 mA, with the second cable (same make/model) it charged between 150/170 mA and with the 'USB to Micro-usb - B cable' (the short cable that came with the headunit) it did between 220/230 mA, which is almost the same amount of mA I read testing it with the wall charger at home in conjunction with a random 'normal' usb-cable.

So before you guys and gals flash kernels for enabling fast charging and all that good stuff, use the micro-usb 'B' cable and maybe that will solve your issues regarding discharging while in use.

Apps that I used to test this :

- Ampere to get a read from the charger on the phone

- Sygic (navigation) / Poweramp (music)

Hardware:

- Sony xperia T (4.3 stock, just rooted with towelroot)

- Unbranded 5 pin mhl cable

- Usb to micro-usb B-cable (the one that came with the headunit)

- Usb to micro usb (random cables which I bought for about 80 cents a piece)

Powersupply:

- from the back of the headunit

I hope this helps!

---------- Post added at 07:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:16 PM ----------

Probably more than okay! I've read somewhere that the MHL/HDMI function in cyanogenmod had some issues. It's probably already obsolete but just to be sure, it's maybe something to checkout or test if the MHL/HDMI connection is stable.
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
It really depends on what you consider to be cheap. Appradio 1 I suggest you stay away from. Appradio2 I recently purchased myself for about $150 used with everything in mint condition. It works perfectly and if your budget is no more than $150 then this should be fine.

The Appradio3 runs about $230+, so there is about a $100 difference between the models. So it all comes down to your budget.

A2DP Bluetooth is so important? I saw a good review with appradio 2...

Maybe better solution is to find a good second hand of AR3
[Android General] DrunkFuX666:
It really depends on your range as I previously said. When you say you want something "Cheap", then its the AR2 which will fully support ARUnchained... If you can afford an extra $100 then get the AR3. Naturally its better if you get the AR3, but once again it depends on your budget.

hi guys, just wanted to check in. i know my setup has been successfully implemented a few times already but i'll post anyways.

just sent in my other head unit and replaced it with an AppRadio 4. very impressed with ARU. had some issues with the free version, so I said f it and grabbed the paid version on play store. worked flawlessly. big thanks to the devs, can't wait to mess with it some more. i'm currently on dodol launcher and it's terrible for ARU casting, i think i saw nova being used in a few places so i'll go try that and post back with results. i'm going to play around with tasker, hoping to get the screen to turn off when i'm casting (think i saw someone doing this on youtube), and maybe get the phone to switch back and forth between launchers if i don't really like nova or whichever one has the best compatibility with casting. another thing i want to try is putting a usb micro extension onto the MHL, so i can tuck it and have just one plug showing. not sure if that would cause issues, haven't looked into it yet.. anyways here's my working setup. feel free to add to the spreadsheet.

1998 Lexus GS400

AppRadio 4

Samsung Note 3 rooted on 4.4 stock kernel w/ TWRP

Samsung MHL Adapter + Belkin HDMI

Notes: dodol sucks. hardware buttons don't work, but there is the soft menu on the left. haven't played a whole lot with it yet, will do so in the next day or two and update

Automatically Connect Miracast

I have a Microsoft Miracast Adapter, and it works great with ARU when it's connected, with minimum lag.

Right now, I'm trying to figure out how to efficiently connect automatically after the adapter boots up (30 seconds or so). I have the Droid Turbo, and right now it doesn't seem to have an autoconnect to previously connected Miracast setups. I've tried Autoinput Action and Tasker to click it, but that only works about 40% of the time. Anyone have a better solution?
[Android General] ruben__:
Nova launcher works great for me with the Sony Xperia, although I did not for the Sammy note 1 (gt7000?).

With the Note I couldn't easily fix the black bars issue or lack of 'real' full screen. In order to avoid all that nonsense and the great workarounds to solve such bs, I decided to use the Xperia instead, which initially was my primary phone (just to be clear, I run the Xperia as my dedicated AR device. My 'real' phone is just set as a device to only communicate with the hands-free functionality of the AR).

If you don't experience the black bar issue using Nova, I suggest you try it for a day and see if you can set it to your liking. The full version is definitely handy because of the extra features which are unavailable in the free version. For example the use of gestures is one that I find very very convenient. I don't have any experience with automated switching launchers but there is a video on youtube from a guy in his corvette which demonstrates exactly that if I recall correctly.

Regarding the app that turns of the screen - I presume you are searching for - is called: Screen standby, works great!

About the extension cable; you will need an usb 'B' type cable to do that. I had the same issue as you have right now with the amount of cluttered cables. Unfortunately (or maybe not) my genuine Samsung MHL adapter decided to quite on me after three months so I'd bought a 3 piece replacement cable with a 1 meter extension. If you check my post on the 23rd you'll see the url of the picture but if you search for 'mhl' on Ebay you'll find those in an instant. I do recommend checking the quality of the cables somehow because there is a lot of junk out there.

Hope this helps a bit and congrats with the AR4! :)

I am also using ScreenBeam Mini 2. The connection is great and I am very happy with it. Now I am trying to automate the set up with tasker. When I manually toggle Miracast it connects automatically but I can not find a way for tasker to toggle it. I do not have a "Cast Screen" app as you do. I have two Miracast apps listed. One brings up this screen shot below, the other doesn't do anything.

Using secure settings I see that when I turn on Miracast "wifi_display_on (1)" is being called but I can figure out how to do that through tasker. I am using a LG G4
