Hi yall.

i got a samsung s4 4.2.2 with the MH9.

its rooted with chainfires. is there any way to make it run? i cant even use the original appradio app. i trying since 2 months! i just tested it with a s3 few minutes ago and the original app is working.

Thank you
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
hmmm thats very odd u cant use the original app....

u didnt mention the carrier. S4 may vary between carriers. i recommend to try if u are rooted, to put a different ROM prefer 4.3 and see if ur able to install the original app. (appradio original by pioneer unmodded).
[Android General] Ratchet84:
the app was running 2 times out of 50 tries. i got a t-mobile carrier from germany. its rooted like root checker says.

im very new in this root and rom thing.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
No Worries man..... Rooting is easy once u get the hang of it.

To be honest to me it sounds like a bad root....

i dont have the german version, i have ATT US so i dont know the root method u are using.

u say u unable to install the original appradio application? or are u able to install it, but when u connect it to the head unit (which one do u have by the way) it will not connect? can u describe exactly what is happening?

the more details u give the better we'll be able to assist u in getting this working in ur car as well.

Note to all GPS injector alpha testers

Version 0.13 of GPS Injector available for Alpha testing

Failsafe mechanism implemented so that it is always autostarted by ARU.

It will be distributed by Google Play automatically.

Please verify that autostart always works.
[Android General] lpasq:
ok to simply allow play store update as usual even for those moving the prior app to system folder?
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Yeah u will still have update as system app and it will stay system app after update

Hey guys,

I'm using an AR3, with a Samsung Galaxy S4. I'm using the Audio Glow LWP and I can't seem to get it working, I thought I had it working for a sec but I cant get it to happen again. I thought at one point I even had it connected without bluetooth at all (is that even possible?)

What are your connection settings as far as bluetooth? phone / media / phone+media?

And I'm trying to use tasker but I have no idea what I'm doing, can anyone help me with setting up tasker? I'd prefer to learn how to do it then have someone just build be a profile.

Right now I just want the connect to: (these are my current settings http://i.imgur.com/VvvMqPU.png)

load ARU

turn on bluetooth, IF it is off.

turn off screen, i have the brightness going to 0 and auto off. (have screen standby but that wouldnt turn my screen back on)

auto bt connect to AR3, this seems to have a lot of problems, and im not even sure if i need it.

Then on disconnect:

kill ARU (this seems to be restarting itself and forcing my phone into landscape until i reboot)

restore auto brightness (set to 251)
[Android General] stayupthetree:
Still no luck on4.4 and bluetooth audio. I can stream bluetooth by itself to the radio, but as soon as I plug it into the mhl and ARU gets going, it stops going to the radio and the audio goes thru the phone. I took some screenshots.

http://imgur.com/a/LPAHP
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
this is the place to be to learn tasker:

http://tasker.wikidot.com/profile-index

u dont need to add force connect to BT via tasker to AR3, AR3 will search for auto connect.

on ur exit task, what are u using to kill ARU? which addon for tasker? u also need to kill ARU GPS , ARU GPS as long as its running it will bring ARU back ... if u kill both they both stay off till next time u connect and tasker will auto launch ARU which will auto launch ARU GPS.

and i do not know whats Audio Glow LWP, feel free to share a link.
[Android General] bodieism:
[MENTION=1556715]Shaunsational[/MENTION]

Samsung phones have some odd setup that causes Audio Glow LWP not to function correctly when connected to MHL. I remember awhile back it randomly quit working for my Note 2. The S4 probably has the same issue. I know the developer of the app is aware of the issue, but I don't know if he intends to fix it.
[Android General] :
Hi. Thank you very much. Tonight I'll try to test this version.
[Android General] Shaunsational:
thanks, I'll check it out.

just the native tasker App->kill app->checked use root. sometimes it works, sometimes ARU gets stuck in a loop and no matter how many times i run the kill task, or clear it from the recent apps it still comes back. (havent tried force closing, i just thought of that) it wont stop until i reboot the phone. I dont have ARU GPS yet, waiting for it to hit the store.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cyphercove.audioglow&hl=en

thats probably it. hope he fixes it.
[Android General] Area51©:
When you disable phone gps you have the following settings?:

Settings->Location access

Access to my location = On

GPS satellites = Off

WiFi & mobile network location = On
[Android General] Area51©:
Checked log, can't see much from it as it is from production version GPS Injector with minimal logging enabled.

Anyhow, if injector status is Connected it is injecting. If there's a problem with mock locations it would have status Mock disabled.

I think this proves that only one location provider can be active at the same time.
[Android General] nfaust01:
Use taskkill plugin for tasker. ARU has background services running that bring ARU back. Taskkill will be the equivalent of doing a force stop which is needed for ARU to stay gone.
[Android General] MonkeyTime:
Issue Follow Up...

Yes, I have 0.14 installed. After playing with it more, the home/back/menu buttons work as intended, great with some apps, hit or miss with others.

I'm still having an issue at times with the phone staying locked in landscape mode. This morning, the phone connected up BT automatically just fine, never connected the mhl cable, and when leaving the car, it disconnected, but stayed locked in landscape mode. I tried turning off the BT service without any success. Even turning on and off the auto-screen rotation did nothing. A restart of the phone fixed it. This seems to be the case about 1 in 8 times throughout my day. Any thoughts? I'm thinking its a Samsung issue because I'm not hearing about it elsewhere.

I completely agree on the NFL app. It works fine on the phone in landscape, and works fine with the AR3 if started before connecting the phone to the AR3. Other apps like Netflix work as intended.

The other thing I've found and I don't think it has anything to do with ARU is that my phone (and all day long, in the car or not) must be losing root for this program and then reassigning it. I get a flashed message continually some days saying ARU has been granted root permissions. This can be while sitting at my desk and not BT connected to anything or at any time. This is the only root app that does this so I may do a wipe and reinstall everything from scratch to see what happens.

KitKat goes at this a whole new and strange way. Check this out https://support.google.com/nexus/answer/3467281?p=settings_location&rd=1

---------- Post added at 06:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:56 AM ----------

Upgraded to latest injector beta and tested with Google Maps app. With location provider the Android 4.4 Location turned on and injector active with mock locations allowed, the map location tracking correctly tracks location...and navigation works. With location provider turned off and the location provider is the AR3 via ARUGPS with mock locations allowed, Google Maps behaves exactly the same as when phone provides location.

I should also check behaviour with location provider turned off and the location provider is the AR3 via ARUGPS with mock locations NOT selected, to see how Google Maps behaves using the phone providing location.

Now it would be nice if others with KitKat can report how Google Maps 7.4.0 behaves in simple tracking mode versus navigation mode. Also helpful would be if feedback comments on their experience or impressions with the Google Maps location tracking accuracy and map orientation.

Lastly...anyone with KitKat seeing other options that needs to be adjusted to turn off phone GPS other than System settings > Location > Off/On?
[Android General] Area51©:
Not really clear to me what is being used and when. I did a bit of a test here to find out using an app called GPS Status. With that you can clearly distinguish between mock and real gps. Do the test as following:

1) Start GPS Status with only Phone GPS enabled, phone not connected to radio -> Will show screen like in first screendump. Note that number of sats and DOP/HDOP/VDOP is indicated.

2) Start GPS Status with Phone GPS enabled and connected to radio with ARU / ARU GPS running. If connected to HU GPS Screen like second screendump is shown. Number of sats and DOP/HDOP/VDOP is not shown.

2) Start GPS Status with Phone GPS disabled and connected to radio with ARU / ARU GPS running. If connected to HU GPS Screen like second screendump is shown. Number of sats and DOP/HDOP/VDOP is not shown.

I like not normal connects and does require lost normal calibration after startup android stick.

I take it to the GPS module PIONEER 110 - GPS Injector should buy?

In android stick NO gps module

i looked into it.. could be the kernel, im going to try a custom rom and see if i can get it to work. if not for [MENTION=5417637]Area51©[/MENTION] I would hate this radio, i thought it was the best thing ever, until i got it installed.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
i use KT kernel, and it is just AWESOME ! u might wana check it out....

AOKP S4
[Android General] Shaunsational:
[MENTION=4282253]m.a.s.e[/MENTION] thanks for the heads up, I've never gotten into changing the kernels before unless they came with a rom. i was looking at the omega rom cause it looks like i can easily swap out the kernel, and hoping i could find one that would work with the viz i want to show on the radio.

just finished the nandroid & titanium backups so hopefully i'll be able to report success in a bit :D
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Listen, first do not be discouraged. the AR3 with ARU is simply amazing !!!

ur issues is just cause ur just now getting into this. Dont worry, 1 week and u got it all covered :)

what S4 variant do u have?

VZW? ur on an AOKP ROM?

swapping kernels is easy, u simply flash the new kernel, wipe cache and delvik and fix permissions.

thats it.

just gota make sure u flash the right kernel for ur own phone/ROM.

with the AR3 u def wana flash a new kernel that support fast charging otherwise u set ur self up for future frustration with battery life.

check the KT kernel, highly recomend:

With ARUGPS active and connected with mock locations selected, Google Maps always on Pioneer GPS. Regardless of what the phone's location services are, on or off, Google Maps always defaults to mock locations on my N5 stock 4.4

If you use the Google Edition ROM on the S4 and an MHL 2.0 adaptor it should AC charge without the need to change the ROM.

As you have been told elsewhere, try a different root method. Others have had the same issue as you with that root method.
[Android General] nfaust01:
Yep been using it just fine. There is still some lag but I put it at 1 second or less. Only gripe is no auto connect to the ptv3000. I just made tasker open the settings and use tasker input dpad to select the right menu items. Also boot time for the ptv3000 seems to be around 15-20 seconds. So I can't initiate a connection to it until then. I just put a 30 second delay in.

Why is everyone using chainfire to root a Google nexus. Just fastboot oem unlock. Install super user binaries and done.
[Android General] ltek1:
Galaxy Nexus, 4.4 in a CM rom, and I'm getting calibrations every time I launch "AR Compatible" apps such as Waze - just using the straight MHL cable, no stick. I *believe* I was getting this with the stock AR app too, but I don't remember. I can test to confirm if that would help.
[Android General] Area51©:
One of the "stick" users confirmed that the original AR app has the same "feature". So that confirmed it's not my fault but won't really help them. So thanks for the offer but it's not necessary. I will try to look into it this weekend. More reverse engineering to do.
[Android General] ltek1:
Okay. I seem to be the only one with constant calibrations on an MHL cable, but 4.4 may be the issue. Something about where the HU or the 'compatible' apps go to look for stored data or a set flag or something? There are other graphics driver problems, and a few resolution problems (google search box overlaps icons when in landscape mode plugged in to MHL).

I really don't want to roll back to 4.3. :P

Really excited about this mod, though, from the first mumblings about it on the ARforums. Keep up the great work!
[Android General] kachaffeous:
Is there a way to skip the warning message on boot? Gets old hitting it every time.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Not unless you hack the WinCE code on the HU itself.
[Android General] Area51©:
I heard today that AR2 and later don't have WinCE.
[Android General] kachaffeous:
Playing around found some various test modes and what not on the AR3. Guess we could cross reference some of the version information between the different firmwares. There was also a eeprom initialize. Lol was scared to run it.

Hold down the following combos for different test modes:

Menu + Eject = Boot into Head unit with test written on screen, not sure what else it does

Menu + Vol - or + = Test mode

Menu + Settings = HDMI/GPS test mode

ARUchained GPS Injector to be released soon

It looks like the GPS Injector will be released this weekend and be available in the play store. It was already tested by me and my main alpha tester M.a.s.e. Other users have not reported any more bugs so it's looking good.

This week I emailed all people that donated earlier, that they could join alpha testing and purchase the GPS Injector for the lowest possible price.

Today is the last day for that. Once the app is published and available for everybody to purchase I can't set the price lower for only a few people. It's one price for all.
[Android General] Ratchet84:
I jused the i think latest chainfire root.

im able to install the original application but then if i try to connect to the radio (its a sph-da100) it stops at 75% and says unable to connect. Then the 2 buttons show up: Settings and Ignore.Thats it. Phone calls via bluetooth is working fine.

Same on original app and ARU even arliberator is not working.

Area51, has there been an update for the injector? Tonight I re-connected and now my CoPilot does not pick up GPS as before.

The injector shows the GPS data and the mock locations is on, but nothing.

By the way the injector never worked before with Google Maps but it did work with CoPilot which was fine for me.

I finally rooted my HTC Once X from AT&T what a pain all for this app ARunchained and i can't get it to work still getting the red x and finger. Using AR3 and my phone is on 4.1.1 with 3.18 firmware. On the pioneer site my phone is not listed as being supported i believe the XL is closest to my phone since all the unlocking/root tools i used for my One X were actually for the XL and the XL is shown in the support list on pioneer but only with 4.0.4, so do i need to install a older rom on my phone so it works or am i dead in the water with a unsupported phone? Appologies if this is the wrong place for this post, couple months of trying i'm getting frustrated and i can't get my S4 for like another 5 months due to upgrade :(
[Android General] Area51©:
Yes there was an update however in the actual injecting part nothing was changed. If you go to settings->apps->ARUnchained GPS Injector what version is shown? If you converted it to a system app, when the Injector service is running and you go to settings->developer options is mock locations enabled? What is the status that is shown? Can you install GPS Status app and does that get a fix?
[Android General] mikek753:
do you know what's used in x8500BHS model?

That exact rom version doesn't really matter that much. What matters is that you get HDMI signal, bluetooth connection and have proper root. Also did you set the the connection to others instead of Iphone in the HU settings?

what's recommended ROM for S3 ATT? d2att

hi,

What ROM do you run on your S3 d2att?

I read that ATT rolled out 4.3, anyone already on that ROM or based on the same kernel ROM?

Thanks.
[Android General] Darthdiddy:
Seems that in the settings menu iphone options are grayed out and cannot be set and in bluetooth it says my phones gmail account as the device name all call functions work and bluetooth audio is there as well with limited play/pause skip functions says no data provided. Maybe i do need the pioneer kit i have a aftermarket hml/hdmi kit bought from local stereo shop where they told me they use these kits all the time on AR2/3 radios. i do rarely get snow and phone lockups when disconnecting the cable or turning the ignition off. So maybe my next step is to buy the real kit lol but figured i'd get some functionality off this cable kit. No android icon shows maps and pandora lites up but just sits there telling me to wait a while and never launches on the radio. :(

Just received my Nexus 5, flashed Slimkat on it. ARU and Injector work great. I only have problems to control the navbar buttons on the HU, but that problem was already reported, thus so far the Nexus 4 works better. I'm very curious to see if the HU will flicker/snow when the GPRS signal is low. I'll report on that Monday, the HU always developed snow in the same area with the Nexus 4.
[Android General] rossitec:
The version of ARUnchained GPS Injector is 0.13, but I have just realised what my problem was. I had the Mock Locations enabled manually but once I disabled the Mock Locations, the AR Injector enabled it and now it works with both CoPilot and GPS Test.

The only strange thing is that once the Injector has enabled Mock Locations, they remain enabled even after I disconnect from the AppRadio and when I re-connect, it still works.

Just for your information, I have the ARUnchained GPS Injector app converted to a system app using Titanium Backup.
[Android General] Area51©:
When enabled manually it should still work. Anyway it's programmed that way.

What not works is when you change the mock settings while Injector service is running.

Can you do a test for me?

First from the Injector App press stop (while connected to AR of course).

Set mock locations to off.

In injector App press start.

Verify mock locations setting -> should be on.

In injector App press stop.

Verify mock locations setting -> should be off.

Thanks.

Ok.
[Android General] Area51©:
Yes I am vey curious too. No snow would be a good reason to get a Nexus 5. As soon as the Injector is in the store I will work on the navbar not reachable problem.
[Android General] tmp_do:
plz don forget about calibration
[Android General] 400ixl:
I have found that the biggest cause for snow is the quality of the USB power cable going to the slimport adapter. I started getting it a few times, but remembered I'd used my high quality cable for something else and used a normal one. Swapped it back a couple of weeks ago and not seen any since.
[Android General] Area51©:
I won't, just got an idea to take it out in an easy way. Going to try tonight.
[Android General] Ratchet84:
Its stock ROM. i already did that but nothing changed. so today ...i dont know why ...the ARU connected to the radio and i could do the calibration on the radio but after that i wasnt able to use the touchscreen on the radio. I didnt change anything and i dont know why it connected.
