My bluetooth woes on KitKat were solved by using a 4.4.1 based rom.

Now to figure a screen off option. I have some success with Screen Standby(much better than 4.3). It wont turn the screen back on unless I lock the phone and turn it back on. Its a mild annoyance compared to 4.3 issues.

Hi,

If you root the phone, Samsung prevents mirroring...

Please Google for "root Samsung mirroring" and you will find the file to change.
[Android General] rm001:
Yess!

It took me just about half a year to understand :o, that when I check "mock locations" in settings, my SGN2 doesn`t automatically start to use GPS data from HU. Now I see how it looks like: all programs show my place correctly, but 0 satellites at the same time. So it means that earlier, with ARLiberator, I was mistaken, switching between mock locations ON anf OFF and thinking, that it makes any sence.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
'with mock location on u will see satellites on the HU settings, not the phone.

Also, if u put ARU GPS as a system app and not a user app it will automatically switch mock locations on and off for u.

Most of the time when you update, you lose root. Have you been using something like voodoo rootkeeper before you updated?

Just a quick question about the appradio itself guys. Looking to purchase one at christmas.

I have an xperia z, what cables would I need for this? Do I have to buy the overpriced pioneer leads for it to work?

Also is there much point in getting appradio 3 over appradio2?

Thanks
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
u can go with any high quality HDMI cable and a charger. but u will need to get an adapter to push power and video/audio over one cable.

i found that the pioneer kit is the simplest way and cheaper if bought from ebay or sort.

appradio 3 support A2DP and many other new enhancements.

yes, its worth it IMO
[Android General] alderaan34:
I thought that was only for all-share cast, not for the MHL portion.

I still had root, I made sure to check for that.

Anyone on here using the Note 2 on 4.3 or 4.4 tell me what ROM worked for them?

Oh so I was able to get the screen to come up, but the touch interface doesn't work, I am pretty sure its something with the bluetooth, it happened on OmniRom 4.4, and the stock 4.3 TMO ROM that someone rooted and posted here.

Bluetooth Issues

I was having Bluetooth issues to, seen some other uses describing it as a Speech Bubble with a Bluetooth Symbol and a Cross...

This is an error which is caused by not changing the App Mode in Settings. If you go into settings there will be a menu option which probably says iPhone. Follow the on screen instructions of disconnecting everything and putting the source to off. Then change the iPhone bit to Others.

Then pair your phone and everything should work fine and dandy... might take a few attempts for the bluetooth to sync up but I am only posting this because it completely stumped me... maybe putting this in the first sticky under Common Problems might help out a lot of people :)

Anyways, works on my S3, so AWESOME work !
[Android General] alderaan34:
my AppRadio is still on others, I had this issue when I first upgraded the firmware, but anytime I restore my 4.1.2 backup it works just fine.
[Android General] 2003WRB:
I'm looking to replace my OEM headunit and based on what I'm looking for a friend of mine pointed me towards the AVH-X8500BHS and this app.

After reading through this post it is seems that my phone (VZW S3) and the AVH-X8500BHS are compatible and should work, now the part that I'm not sure about is the cables required to connect. I already have the MHL adapter (ET-H10FAUWESTA) that works with my TV so I'm guessing it should work with the HU too, now do I still need the Pioneers cable kit (CD-AH200) or any hdmi cable will allow me to connect and use all the features available in through this app?

Now the next question would be regarding the rooting of my phone, currently its not rooted and runs the OTA 4.1.2 ROM. I rooted a DROID Incredible way back and played around with that but it seems that since then the root process has been simplified a lot and now days there a "causal root tool", I guess that this will be the simplest and fastest method of gaining root to my phone. I'm not really looking to play with custom ROMs I just want the root access to be able to use this app.

This seems like a perfect match for what I'm looking for in the replacement for my crappy OEM HU and I'd really appreciate it if someone that has experience with this setup would help me out and answer these questions. It looks like the dev is really committed to this project and if I do end up buying this HU a donation is definitely fitting, seems like people have lots of complaints regarding the suggested option of the DriveLink app so having this as an option is fantastic.

Thanks in advance!
[Android General] bruhnrp:
I'm new here but have been reading along this topic for a week or so. I purchased the Pioneer SPH-DA210 and have a new Galaxy S4 (Android: 4.3, i337UCUEMK2, Kernal: 3.4.0-1921628) that is rooted. I'm able to use the "Screen Mirroring" fine. Perhaps some file was changed while rooting, but I never specifically changed one.

I tried using the Samsung MHL 2.0 but found it would not put out the charge I needed. From the DA210, I can get 1000mA but as soon as I try to go through the MHL it drops to 700mA or 300mA depending on the order I plug things in (due to the ac/dc charge issue). To get around all this, I simply bought the Samsung Allshare dongle, hooked it up to the HDMI and micro usb power from the DA210, tucked it back in my dash, and now I simply plug a charger directly to my phone. Everything else is wireless and connects automatically when starting my truck.

I've been testing out ARUnchained to see how it works. So far, it seems to work well on most things I do. Though, if I send a message through Skype, it simply shows as "pending" and is never sent. Not sure why and was only tested a couple times.

I don't think this is related to ARUnchained... as it happened before installing the app.... but when receiving a phone call through Skype I'm able to use the mic and stereo speakers (the phone thing pops out to answer), but then the sound drops, the phone app closes, and the phone icon sets to "pause." I can tap the phone icon and bring it back up, but then it clicks into pause again after 15 seconds or so. This pattern keeps repeating. If I wait long enough, it actually comes out of pause on it's own, but always comes back again. Tried using Sound About but that didn't do anything different.

Anyway, now that I'm a member here I will post more info as I test the app.

Any chance we can see at leat a 3 point multi touch register with ARU. Waze supports voice with a 3 finger touch or swipe. So would be nice to have this feature while using ARU.
[Android General] texbuck:
The head unit itself only supports two point multitouch, so unless one is capable of hacking the hu firmware, we're out of luck. Sorry.
[Android General] nfaust01:
Yeah I tried finding the number of touches and only found multi touch. Ah well, the 2 touch works great.

This is the problem I'm seeing, but I do have my settings set to others. I'm still trying to debug the cause of my bluetooth issues. It seems I can get a connection, but it usually takes about 10 minutes or so. It's really strange.
[Android General] _ice_:
Woot! Thanks!

Works perfectly on my app radio 3! Didn't even have to do the parking break bypass!
[Android General] kinetx:
I started having an issue today where my phone connects via MHL and BT (including ARU) successfully, however none of HU buttons work (home/back/menu), and the HU will not recognise any touches. It's as if there's no BT connection.

(note - upon touching the screen I don't receive the red X warning, BT has actually connected and so has ARU)

I repaired my phone and this didn't solve the issue. So then I killed ARU and let it auto-reconnect again and this worked.

Nothing in my setup has changed - rooted HTC One running InsertCoin 7.04 (KitKat 4.4) and ElementalX kernel 10.5 (based on 4.4 source), latest ARU (0.15).

Has anyone come across this before? It's very strange as I've now been using ARU for several months with no issue, so I'm surprised (and reluctant to believe) it would all of a sudden start acting up.
[Android General] SwissGalaxy:
I tried with the KT 04.03.69 Kernel (with Fast Charge mode activated) + ROM Omega 16 and the Samsung MHL 1.0 (black) but I never came to exceed 300 mA.

I installed the program "Fast CHarge" (GooglePlay) and I come now to a 1000 mA load with USB output SPH-DA110 ...

A test, it works well for me.
[Android General] stayupthetree:

My 1st post in a very long time but to answer your question the app is working perfectly for me on 4.4.2. Injector won't switch mock locations on or provide location data to apps other than Appradio mode compatible ones though.

Home screen also has correct landscape support in ARU as well.

[Android General] lpasq:
yes. perfectly fine. also worked with 4.4.1 ...i am stock rom rooted with twrp 2.6.3.4 originally. i had a few modified apps that i reverted to the stock apks before flashing the 4.4 < 4.4.1 ota zip via twrp. before the flash i uninstalled xposed framework that i run for custom tweaks and hacks. after upgrade, re-installed xposed framework and re-rooted. aru no issues. then, for 4.4.1 < 4.4.2, i upgraded to supersu pro and activated survival mode to protect root...uninstalled xposed framework, flashed ota zip for twrp, rebooted, re-installed xposed framework...root was maintained fine, all xposed tweaks/hacks worked fine, aru perfectly operational. i even have tasker upon hdmi connect doing things like bt on, load aru, diplay to zero brightness, toggling on expanded desktop to remove nav bar and give me full screen homescreen on hu, and going directly to phone homescreen on hu after aru launches.

How do you get the following to work with ARU?

"The AR3 also allows voice control via the HU mic. That means Google voice search functions when phone connected and stored in glove box or other closed storage. "

Thx!
[Android General] evillela2001:
My mic works but you can't say OK Google to bring up the search but if I'm already in the search I can speak to the mic and it'll pick it up. You need to enable bluetooth input in the search settings menu for that to work.
[Android General] Area51©:
Does the injector work when you enable mock locations manually first? On Android 4.4.x you need to move the injector apk from "/data/app" to the "/system/priv-app" folder to enable automatic switching of mock locations.

It seems to work (except google maps) when it is a user app but if converted to a system app using titanium backup it doesn't seem to function even if mock is turned on manually.

It might be that Titanium backup doesn't move the application to "/system/priv-app" yet (as is required for 4.4.x) but still moves it to "/system/app". Can you check that?

That's why I asked if 4.4.2 worked for anybody. At least 4.4.2 works for some people. Can somebody with a working 4.4.2 and somebody with a nonworking 4.4.2 provide a logcat to me?

[Android General] low405:
Moved it across and an extra couple of reboots seems to have sorted that.

To make it connect up every time these are the steps that I take.

BT off

ARU closed

Open ARU

Allow ARU to turn on BT

Return to home screen

Connect Slimport

Enjoy ARU goodness!

Also using screen standby with it set to one-two dim mode.

Thanks for a superb app!

GPS Injector

I have a nexus 5 running 4.4.2 all working including mock locations starting and stopping. However it says unlicensed in status when running?
[Android General] lpasq:
You have my connection setting logcat link for download sent via PM. The connection steps were to activate phone screen, car off, plug phone to SlimPort, car on...then you will see Tasker activity and BT activity on and then, after a minute, car off and then phone BT off. I only ran the one connection session and it did have a snag connecting BT. Timing between HU request for smartphone connection and phone's BT connection missed and I had to respond to HU dialogue asking if I wanted to attempt reconnect. When that happens, I select OK to HU request and it always connects and I am in ARU straight away. That happens sometimes. Maybe related to my device active processes or maybe Tasker. Maybe sign of bug... ....also, BT is confirmed active on phone as soon as car power turns on HU because I see the BT status indicator immediately, and since Tasker turns on phone BT upon HDMI connect, I assume HU would recognize smartphone soon after HU boot...sometimes I have a grey Andy on HU in seconds but sometimes not for many seconds...sometimes Andy has the BT connection attempt icon immediately too and sometimes not......
[Android General] stargate125645:
So everything appears to be working great except for GPS, which seems to be a Samsung issue with Google. I know someone was supposed to test out the AR3 microphone with standard voice search and within Maps, etc., but I still haven't seen that post (and thread search revealed nothing so it must not have used the word "microphone" if it exists).

The only bug I get is when the phone connects via BT but I don't have it plugged in, I will often be stuck in landscape mode even after I turn the car off and BT is disconnected. I don't know if this is a Galaxy S3 issue, but I imagine it would be fixable. Force closing the program works to allow screen rotation again.

Edit: Found it. Should have searched "mic" instead.

[Android General] Area51©:

Snow seems to be guaranteed when you have a fake Samsung adapter so you have to be 100% sure it's genuine.

Some people also suggested it might be the quality of the usb power cable. However I think that is less likely.
[Android General] bodieism:
After logging more hours with my Verizon Note 3 I've noticed random short lived snow issues. I seem to remember reading a post that said this could be caused by having a weak 4G signal as your phone switched cell towers. I used this app to place my phone into 3G only and noticed that the problem did not present itself. It could merely be coincidence, but it's worth a shot. I have the genuine adapter ordered directly from Samsung and never had snow issues at all until getting the Note 3.

I have a widget that I made with Tasker that can switch between 3G and 4G, but it's kind of crude because it uses Dpad presses. I haven't found a way to do it with a command. I would offer up the Tasker profile, but I doubt it would work since you're on AT&T.

It's not necessary to install Car Keyboard. Only the original Pioneer AppRadio app needs that. Just make sure in the setting menu of ARU that hardware keyboard is switched off and you can use the regular software keyboard.

Right now all the Pioneer approved apps can still use the radio GPS. I didn't change anything about that yet. So the built in application should still be able to work too as it uses the radio GPS. You also need to give the radio GPS some time to get a fix.
