Ok, so testing first with an adapter on my TV - one of my other adapters works fine, the other I have to hold the cable tight - so I have to believe that the M8 has a somewhat more deeply recessed connector and that if I shave a mm or two off of the plastic on my Skiva cable, it will probably work ok. Really annoying though. Thanks for the help!
[Android General] TeamHackura:
Are your able to stream all apps'? Any issues at all? Can you charge quickly?
[Android General] mustafaluigi:
I am running 4.1.2. I only mention it because I thought ARU used bluetooth to relay touches and since the phone technically says I am not connected I was confused why I was still getting touches. I am not complaining as I have it working pretty good right now, just have to work out my tasker profiles between the two phones to get the carphone to have bluetooth on, screen on, and ARU running by the time I start the car up without killing both batteries all day. I tether over BT because there are issues with MHL and wifi with the Galaxy Nexus and speeds drop to around 0.1-0.2 mbps.

On my actual phone (LG G2) I have tasker set up to utilize BT auto connect so that when I am near the car phone (Galaxy Nexus) it will try and connect and start BT tether. On the car phone I have something similar with BT auto connect and with tasker it is set up that when they connect, screen turns on, ARU is started. When the car turns off, and the car phone looses power it will kill all my apps that I normally have running like Pandora or Torque. Pandora is set up to automatically turn on when ARU notification states Connected, and there is power.

Currently I have both phones with BT always on, and the BT tether will only disconnect when I am far enough away from the car. The issue is that the BT connection is pretty strong no matter where I am in my house and the car phone always connects and keeps its screen on. Working on a way to stop this while still keeping what I need going on when I start my car happening. For now I am just manually turning BT off when I get home. I may wire the car charger to always be powered and modify my power on state to something else to open and kill apps. That will fix my battery drain on the car side, and with a screen standby app I can save my screen from burning in. My LG G2 has monster battery life and even if it connects and tethers BT all the time the drain is actually pretty minimal. I wont be too worried if I can't get two days of life and only 1.5 days.
[Android General] jdpdata:
I was having random reboots due to heat issues too when I first used ARU.

What fixed it for me was to move my phone out from glove box.

It wasn't getting decent air circulation sitting in there.

It's now in a cubby hole in center console with better ventilation.

I also run Faux Kernel and run per-app mode to clock down my CPU for certain CPU intensive tasks,

like Maps or Waze. CPU temperature used to hit 120F+, now it stay around 100-110F max.

Faux also does some nice Thermal Throttling too to help with heat buildup.

Note that I don't use internal GPS on my Nexus 5. I use external BT GPS. That also helps cuts down on heat.

Do you also have a case on your phone? Try taking that off to aid in dissipating heat.
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
Able to stream everything, not issues so far. Quick charging still not working.
[Android General] TeamHackura:
USB charging? are you using a 1A plus charger for adapter? does it just hold level or does battery drop while charging?
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
Scratch that, just went out for lunch and its not working again :p I knew there was a reason I kept saying "so far". Going to try the new version after work.

I really don't understand how it works for a day or so then just stops. I can't think of anything I'm doing. Enabling car mode in CarHome? That's about it.
[Android General] yarnaj:
Good app, thank you sir!
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
It drops and yes this charger used to do over 1.5A with my note 2 on a hacked kernel.

Have you activated MOCK in Settings/Developer Menu?
[Android General] j53113:
I'm having a similar problem with my note 2. It work perfectly for a week. Then all of a sudden nothing. I connect with blue tooth fine but nothing sees the hdmi cable. Nor does the phone "charge" when connected to the stick. I also connected it in my house. Again, nothing. Even purchased a new hml adapter thinking that was the problem but it's not. :( fml
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
For fast charging problems we need to short the D+ and D- pins or get one of these that do it for you

[Android General] Pig Vomit:
I had the AVH-4000NEX (the one without navigation/GPS) installed yesterday. I had a stock Nexus 5, locked bootloader, no SuperUser. Analogix Slimport connector for HDMI. Tested it first on my TV, worked fine. Installed the Pioneer AppRadio app from Google Play, showed it was connected (via Bluetooth), but did not work (as expected). Everything else is great, with the radio. Even without ARUnchained, I would be happy, but I specifically bought this unit with an eye to mirror my Nexus 5 to the Pioneer screen.

Today, unlocked my bootloader, installed SuperUser, reinstalled all my apps (pain in the butt), installed ARUnchained Beta 6. Setup for the NEX is set for smartphone (other) and HDMI. Once again, showing connected via Bluetooth, but I cannot get any apps to show on the Pioneer screen or any sort of mirror.

I never had an AppRadio unit before, not sure if I'm doing something wrong, or this combo doesn't work for some reason. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Not a newbie with computers, car stereos, or phones. Not the first bootloader I've unlocked or SuperUser installation.....Nexus 5 was just the first phone I felt I didn't need it on.

So.....any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Willing to try anything anyone suggests. It could very well be that it's something I'm doing wrong. Thanks in advance for all help.

If you're considering the AVH-4000NEX and you have a Nexus 5.....beware that you may not get AppRadio or mirroring working.
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
Did you change your connection mode to other in the settings on your head unit,
[Android General] cwalkin:
Yeah, USB to this adapter to MHL

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0088HTYUE
[Android General] Pig Vomit:
Yes.

Device: Others

Connection: HDMI

One other thing.....As the cord from the Slimport was short....I added a micro-USB extension to it to facilitate a clean installation so I wouldn't have to have a bunch of cords coming out of my dash....only the micro-USB. Would this possibly have something to do with it? I had someone else do it.....I don't have any easy access to any of this. Could be a bad connection, but I explained very carefully how to set it up, and he was familiar with ARUnchained.
[Android General] DizzC:
That's probably your problem right there. I also tried to use a USB extension for my slimport but found that it didn't recognize it as hdmi when I did. I think that you need a special kind of extension to make it work properly.
[Android General] jdpdata:
Yup, extension is your problem. I had all sorts of issues using micro USB extension. Remove it everything should work better. Slimport are very sensitive to cable length.
[Android General] kevinhengl8122:
There is maybe a 1/4 of a second lag if your watching the screen as you text or type on your phone and look at your radio. Otherwise if your just using the radio and don't look at your phone, You would never know. The image quality is definitely there too. I watch movies in 1080 and they look great!

Question

Is there any way you could share a backup of your tasker profiles. I haven't been able to fully grasp tasker yet. Thank you
[Android General] newdad:
I thought I would share something I was told from a pioneer tech today. I have a avic-6000nex, the deck supports avrcp 1.4, your supposed to be able to browse all the songs on your device through Bluetooth. I have a customer with a S4 that can not get this to work. Pioneer guy had an s4 as well. His worked perfectly. I had him update his S4 ota, after the update the pioneer guys s4 wouldn't work either. He said that in 4.4 they changed the Bluetooth stack, which has ruined that capability. I am not a super techie, but I figured if this info can help anyone with anything than I should share it.
[Android General] hghflyrjd1:
Browsed NO LUCK.

Anyway someone could link me the download to the app or apps I need on my phone..I am rooted a note 3.or email me hghflyrjd1@aol.com....thx guys
[Android General] Mati24:
Yes
[Android General] pyrobo0by:
Don't worry about it just go ahead with it and then do it yourself with research

---------- Post added at 02:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:44 PM ----------

Just get a 2A car charger...I'm using a belkin which is 2.1A and it charges up my note 3 pretty fast
[Android General] Fekker:
After losing all touch after my S4 upgraded to Kitkat I managed to install a version of Slimkat and got all functionality back, however I wanted to use an allsharecast dongle but the lag was 15 seconds and sound stuttered. I found out that the allsharecast dongle doesn't like modded roms so I went back to stock to test it and it worked flawlessly, but again no touch on stock rom. I installed the Pioneer Appradio app and touch works, back to Arunchained and no touch, so if I want to use the allsharecast dongle I need to be able to get stock Kitkat to work with touch, if anyone has found a solution I'd be very grateful to hear it.
[Android General] chico260:
Use the version of slim kat. But flash " stock" kernel .. Se if that helps

Also which version of slim kat you using ... i use the dongle also bust can't get touch features yet on kit Kat on my sprint note 3
[Android General] Fekker:
Ok, I'm new to this, would this leave Slimkat but use the original kernel or overwrite Slimkat? Is this the same as flashing the rom over Slimkat?

Excuse me if I'm totally wrong as I'm new to Android previously having ios. Is the kernel a separate part I can just flash onto Slimkat? The Slimkat version is 3.8, I also tried CarHDrom V.22 and AOSB 1.3.2 all of which gave touch back but not compatible with allsharecast.

Sorry for all the questions.
[Android General] chico260:
Search your community thread for a stock flashable kernel through your custom recovery also make sure it's the proper kernel for your build which sounds like kit Kat
[Android General] ikerg:
Yes...you can flash the kernel only above your ROM...they are independent,but check as commented which stock kernel is available for your ROM
[Android General] TeamHackura:
Sounds like you got it working well. Note 3 with kit Kat? What is your setup?
[Android General] pyrobo0by:
Not really I still have to flash a different ROM which I can't because I don't have a custom recovery but I'm using a blekin 2A to charge along with my mhl2.0
[Android General] TeamHackura:
Download GooManager and let it try to find a recovery for you. It should be able to flash it right from the app. Why another Rom needed? Does it work with mhl cable as is and you are just trying to get it to work with dongle?
[Android General] bigcid10:
I just safestraped my i337 s4 with a stock rooted nb1 4.4.2 and I have no touch on my aru 8500bhs

Is there a problem with kitkat and ARU?

the stock pioneer app works

when I first go through the set up the touch works fine ,super su come up when it wanted root and I granted it

any ideas?,thanks

I don't have the hand come on the screen as well just no touch
[Android General] bigcid10:
ok ,all straighten out

turns out it was a root issue.the stock rooted kitkat rom I used must have been not rooted properly

so I flashed deadly Venom 3.01 and after that it worked like a champ

thanks,bigcid10
[Android General] SilverTipp:
For those of you using android on a stick (such as http://www.amazon.com/Tronsmart-T428-Android-Rockchip-RK3188/dp/B00CK6ZRE6) are you able to get full touch control or no? If not, are there any that work with touch control?
[Android General] bradleyem:
For the last two days I've been in "Failed to connect" hell. It was working great with my new Note 3 (stock firmware) for two weeks, then it suddenly would not connect. I ended up clearing out the bluetooth connections in the radio and the phone and setting them up again. It seems to be working fine for now. The Bluetooth stack in the radio really sucks. I'm sure that most of the connection issues are because of the radio. I really wish that we had a stand alone solution that didn't rely on pioneers crappy software...
[Android General] mikek753:
can't connect second times

hi,

ARU connects Ok after phone reboot, but 2nd or 3rd time even I start ARU app (it's already running) it just stays in main screen and no connections at all, yes BT is connected.

What can I do for this matter?

thanks.
[Android General] basmand:
Yes normally I have no problem with touch control on android 4.2.2!! Yesteday I installed kit kat (4.4.2) works perfect and very fast on my MK802IV stick, but touch control dosent work as on many phones with kit kat. Later today I will investigate further on this issue, Rom supposed to be root, but I will try and re root.

Update:

I am still stock at 75% in Bluetooth connection, don't want to use more time on that F... kit kat rom, back to the good old and working 4.4.2 Still 4.4.2 was the best Rom I have installed on the stick

Hello,

I try to use it with the German avic-f60dab/avic 8000nex but if I push home button on Head unit my HTC one m7 goes back to appradio unchained app but that's not what i want ! I want go back to the home screen of my mobile!

By the way on my appradio 2 I had same failure ... Please fix it
[Android General] sofakng:
In case anybody is interested, I just wrote a really lengthy review of the AVIC-8000NEX over at the avic411 forums (http://avic411.com/index.php?/topic...hts-including-screen-brightness-measurements/).

Basically though, I'm extremely, extremely happy with the 8000NEX. I've measured the screen brightness and it's brighter than my Nexus 5 phone. The UI is also extremely fast and AR Unchained works perfectly. If anybody is interested in screen brightness comparisons compared to other head units (and the AppRadio 3), check the thread I linked to above.

Anyways, I also have the "problem" of the home button of my head unit taking me to the AR Unchained screen instead of phone's home screen. I can press "back" and then exit AR Unchained to get to the home screen but it's a little ackward.

AR Unchained is absolutely fantastic though and if anybody is considering an AVIC NEX unit, I would strongly consider the 8000NEX. The lower models have a MUCH darker screen that is resistive. The 8000NEX is a completely different model in every single way.

Note 3 and AVH-X5600BHS

Hey guys, I just got a Note 3 and I have recently bought a AVH-X5600BHS. I love both however after doing some research, AppRadio only works with iPhones on the head unit and the Note 3 is not compatible with mirror link. So I came to where all the answers are, xda. I have been doing some reading on these threads but this one alone has 403 pages so it is difficult to pick out the bits and pieces. Does anyone have any advice? I seem to remember reading that the Note 3 will work but you need to root the phone and add a line in somewhere to allow Touchwiz. I can't find that now, but I did root my phone so any advice is very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
[Android General] orpheus1988:
5600BHS doesn't have any app mode support for android devices, the only thing its capable of is MTP, which is just for music. You will need to change one of your devices, either get a compatible iPhone and use what Pioneer provides you with (I've heard they also have mirroring for jail broken ones) or get a HU that is supposed to work with android devices in Appmode. Current ARU is a modified stock app, it can't pair two devices, that won't work with the stock app.
[Android General] Mati24:
Up :)
[Android General] tshrey:
Just finished reading the 403 pages of this thread. I have to say, the regulars on this thread are extremely patient with all the people who just show up repeating the questions that appeared 50 times earlier in the thread. I would have just sent them to lmgtfy.com

Area51 great job. Picked up the app a while ago but just got the head unit installed. Wanted to point out a few things about my setup in case it will save some hassle for others. I'll be chipping in for your work.

Verizon Galaxy S4 rooted stock rom

Samsung MHL 2.0

AVH X8500BHS

My Tasker setup:

On BT connection AND HDMI connection:

Launch ARU

Apex Launcher Enabled via Secure Settings

Go Home

Rotation Locker Landscape

Disable Keyguard via Secure Settings

Media Volume 15

Set Wallpaper

AutoBrightness Off

Display Brightness 0

Wifi Off

On HDMI disconnect:

Taskkill extrame ARU

Apex Launcher disabled via Secure Settings (it is set as default in android, when disabled Nova becomes the launcher because it is the only other one - I froze the Touchwiz launchers via Titanium Backup)

Rotation Locker Auto

Auto Brightness

Keyguard enabled via Secure Settings

Go Home

Set Wallpaper

There is a 1s wait between every step, just seems to help with consistency

90% of the time I don't connect the cable, just let BT connection for phone answering and BT audio (Pandora works here, but you don't get any track information. You do have track skip ability. Google Play Music gives track info). I also have an 80 gig iPod connected so that is the source of my music library generally.

When I do connect the cable, I do so after the car is on and BT has already connected. Mirroring begins immediately and I can see the ARU running but it takes anywhere from 20 seconds to 4 minutes for it to realize there is an HDMI connection and actually connect to the phone. Everything works well, my phone charges a small amount while using Google Maps (I have a ubec hardwired into my console to power the MHL adapter).

The one thing that is annoying as hell took me a while to discover. After using appradio and then disconnecting the wire (which kills ARU) the HU keeps trying to get AppRadio to connect. The symptom is that music playing (iPod for example) would cut out every 15-20 seconds. I finally looked at the App Mixing mode for sound and could see that it would alternate between being adjustable (which it only is when AppRadio is connected) and greyed out. Only solution I have found is to turn mixing mode to Off when not connected. This behavior stops if I disconnect BT, but that ruins the point of having handsfree phone. If anyone has found a way around this I'd love to hear it.

ARU logs

is there a way to determine what is causing ARU not to have touch

I installed a different rom on my phone yesterday and ARU was working fine all last night

I got up this morning to go somewhere and No touch

now being that I ota flashed my S4 to 4.4.2(NB1),I can't go back to 4.3(mk2)

so,in order to root my phone I have to use the safestrap process,not the end of the world though,lol

but it makes it harder to troubleshoot ,is there a logfile somewhere that I can read?

I have kitkat rooted and busybox is installed but it just doesn't have any touch(no hand/X either)

Area51,can you give me somewhere to look?

thank you

I try Tomtom and it works good with GPS injector, why it's not working with iCoyote?
[Android General] rlenny03:
Does anyone know how to use tasker to automate allshare cast connect when bluetooth connects? If possible could someone make a backup or xml file I could import. Much apprecited!
[Android General] tshrey:
Answered my own questions tonight. The music interruption from the HU trying to reconnect was because of the power to the MHL cable; it must somehow make the HU think there is something intermittently connected to the HDMI. Once I pulled the power out of the MHL this totally stopped. Since I'm using a hardwired cable I'll install a switch to turn the power on and off so that I don't have to change the setting in App Mix Mode and can just leave it set to High.

Also, I can get ARU to connect very fast once I get mirroring just by pressing on the screen and getting the Red Hand X. As soon as I do that ARU wakes up and connects.
[Android General] orpheus1988:
Most likely a problem of iCoyote, if it doesn't accept mock locations it can't work, maybe you should contact its developer, as that can't be fixed by area51.
[Android General] Mati24:
I try to contact the developer. Thank you
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
Finally figured out issues with note 3 and appradio 2

I have figured out why my touch keeps going away. If I restart my phone anywhere I have to delete the bluetooth pairing and seriously turn the appradio on and off till it will pair properly and connect with touch. I found switching to iPhone mode then back also helps expedite this process. Once they pair properly again with touch it will work till I restart my phone again then I must repeat the process. It does not matter what mhl adapter I am using (samsung 1.0 or 2.0). I am using the GPS injector, screen standby with the following settings: zero brightness, faster zero, brightness, persistent blank frame, and samsung galaxy s3 compatibility (I did not change my hardware overlay settings). I can still only get the "fast charge" of 700mah by shorting out the data pins on the charger that goes in to the mhl adapter.
[Android General] bigcid10:
files that require root

what files in ARU require root? and where are the correct locations for these files?

thank you
[Android General] bigcid10:
catlog files

Can someone take a look at this log file and give me an idea why I'm not getting touch?

thank you
[Android General] Clandaries:
Nice APP !!!

Is it not possible to use the GPS of the Phone?

Thank you.
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
To use the GPS of your phone just disable GPS Injector in the ARU settings. It saves battery to use the head unit's GPS though.
[Android General] Clandaries:
Will test it.

Thank you.

Edit:

No GPS Signal. Maybe because the HU just brings 320mA to the Phone? I don't know why it is just 320mA. About 3 days it was alt 1000mA.

I should buy another Charger.
[Android General] Mibuix0r:
I doubt it is your charger. It is most likely because you are running a stock kernel and you don't have a cable with the data pins shorted out so it thinks it is charging from a computer.
