Beeping noise

i was wondering if anyone has a issue with beep noise on the SPH-DA100. i just finished installing app radio unchained and it works flawlessly with my Samsung Galaxy S5, but as soon as the radio begins to mirror my phone it make this beep, beep, beep beep noise. there is no problem with the touch portion but i cant get any sound even if i play music, you-tube videos, or even open a game that requires sound, it continues to beep until i unplug it. Also is there any other ROMS that are permissive that i can try on my Samsung S5.

*Rooted my phone (Omega ROM)

*MHL to HDMI is The Samsung brand

To get the new Alpha (0.07) you need to apply to the AppRadio Unchained Reloaded Alpha community.

sorry but i see a lot of video and nexus 5 can't be charged when is connected to the radio, can't increase the charge, but decrease.

really? so if i connect my phone i can use it but i can't charge it?

maybe this radio can charge less than 1.2 A or 2A ?

2) and i needed an mhl cable ? or another cable? or not needed ?
[Android General] poopsmith777:
LOL, y so butthurt? I know exactly what I'm doing...as I am doing it. I 'suggest otherwise' as my setup doesn't need the bypass by whatever act of the powers that be. I am aware that just about everyone else has needed a bypass to get video working. Not everyone else has my exact hardware, components, and car. The results speak for themselves, but I have not once said that I would advise someone to not get a bypass and cross their fingers that their setup would work. But you can believe whatever you wish, princess. Too bad you don't live closer or I would take you for a ride in a real car with a real working setup without a bypass.

If current in < current expended, you'll lose charge. Without using an ammeter, you'll have to monitor your results over time performing different tasks to determine which will result in your phone being charged/depleted.

For example, when using Screen Standby on my 'magical' setup (described in my sig) I netted a positive charge when playing Spotify. However, using the location/GPS functions on my phone for Google Navigation resulted in a net loss (though less significant than if I were to not charge the phone). I'm using a charge-only cable right now and an adapter rated @ 2.1A.

The Nexus uses a Slimport adapter to output to HDMI
[Android General] robertusIT:
ok so if i need to use gps and google maps, i loose my charge and i can't do nothing to fix it?
[Android General] poopsmith777:
Using all your radios (LTE, BT, GPS) most likely represents the most significant current drain for your phone when driving. I can't say that you will necessarily not be able to maintain a positive net charge, but it is probably the most demanding scenario while driving. I'd make sure you have fast charge enabled if you are not using a charge-only cable and a high current capable adapter (or a hard-wired adapter capable of supplying > 1 amp).

I believe the net drain could be reduced by using the Pioneer GPS receiver and mock locations so you are injecting that GPS data from the receiver rather than using your phones GPS radio. I will more than likely be trying that in the future. Right now it does drain a bit, but I'm not too bothered by it
[Android General] robertusIT:
i need an android car audio for the maps.

so if i buy this radio i will use always maps and gps, also radio.

So no way to fix it, i loose always my charge. right?

is not a radio for me ? :(
[Android General] poopsmith777:
Not necessarily. It just depends on your setup. I'm pretty sure there are some here that have positive charge while running everything. With my phone, I am only able to have brightness turned all the way down through Screen Standby not disable it entirely. This may not be a limitation with other devices. Just do some searching in this thread for working setups, and I'm sure you will find something.

For me, this is a far better value and superior performance to a headunit like the AVIC. I have right around 300 bucks in my setup (headunit, cables, adapter)
[Android General] 400ixl:
Screen Standby works with the Nexus 5. If you search the application thread on XDA, there is a special version for the Nexus 5 which works.

I also run a custom Kernel which allows me to switch on Fast Charge. With that switched on a a greater than 1A power supply into the Slimport HDMI adapter it positively charges the phones whilst navigating.

The HU cannot supply enough power for a postive charge, so do not use the USB supply on the HU.

Has anyone had any experience with mirroring on the 5000NEX? Have tried multiple phones, tons of different scenarios and still cannot get mirroring to work. If there is anyone else who has the 5000nex, and or some experience with it please help.. One important thing to note about my deck is there isn't HDMI. Mirroring is through USB and a special cable from Pioneer for android mirror link which I have. Thanks.

So with my $20 donation, I am only part of the Reloaded community? Then, how much and where do I go and what do I have to do to become an alpha tester?

I wish I had known this so I could've had a hardwire to a proper power source when it was installed. Now I have to fish a cable through somewhere. This should probably be notated for some newbs.

Google now works for me through the AR3. The unit also supports a second Bluetooth signal so I can also pair it with my Windows Phone using Cortana for voice dictation by holding down the AR3's home button. Also, it'll be extra fun to use the new WP Denim firmware that was just announced for phones with the Snapdragon 800 and up to allow the phone to be in sleep and trigger Cortana by saying "hey, Cortana".
[Android General] 400ixl:
You have already posted twice about this, no need to keep posting.

Does the radio work ok and play sounds normally? If it does, then try the MHL adapter / HDMI lead on your TV.

YOU need to go through a process of elimination and when you have the component isolated people may be able to help. Until then its a coplete guessing game and a waste of other peoples time I'm afraid. Narrow it down and people can help.

Please don't keep repeating the same question over and over.

If you have provided your Google+ ID then you will get added to the community and from there you can register for the developers access in the Play Store.

I could just answer with RTFM as it is recommended in there not to use that connector for that purpose. However it has also been discussed so many times on this thread a search cannot fail to find at least one post on it.

Documenting everything is an overhead for the dev that the search engine covers.Especially as its nothing to do with his application, which this thread is for.

Interesting observation with my Note 2 - Its a I37M from rogers running the stock room but is rooted. ARU is installed and I get mirroring but because my SELinux is on Enforcing, I can't use full touch capability.

Even with APRadio starts and I see the default crappy apps, i can't touch the screen either. Strangest thing is get no Red Finger of X.

Voice commands work fine with the head unit in my experience. It is your Android version that may prevent proper use. Android 4.4.2 works for example, while 4.1.2 did not for me.
[Android General] Area51©:
You can have access to Beta and Alpha as you wish. The Reloaded community was assigned to Alpha test but as this is now 120+ people I decided to move that community to Beta test and promote the 0.06 to Beta. So nothing would change for those testing now. Then I created a Reloaded Alpha community to which people who are already part of the Reloaded community can apply. The idea is that a smaller group tests the Alpha version (which is now 0.07) first so that if there are major bugs not everybody has to suffer. If no major bugs pop up then the new version can be promoted to Beta and everybody can use it. This could be a matter of a few days. Apparently this causes a lot of confusion. There's 25 people in the Reloaded Alpha community. If you want to join you can apply and I will grant you access. Of course if everybody wants be in Reloaded Alpha this kind of defeats the purpose but it will be as you wish. This is the link: AppRadio Unchained Reloaded Alpha
[Android General] EMINENT1:
Ok. I appreciate the explanation. I just saw alpha in the line of the download link and thought I was already in it.

I am going to test a bit more and see if things are smooth with .06 before I do so. I'm fine with that. Thanks.

Google Now works once you initialize it (open it up by swiping from the bottom), it's the voice input on keyboards that doesn't work. The AR3 also has it's own voice dialing.
[Android General] stargate125645:
Do some Internet searches if you don't know simple definitions. Message Area51 with your Google play email and PayPal email (they need to match), and request to join the Google+ community for the alpha supplying the necessary information. With that said, if you are unsure of simple definitions you should think twice about being involved in a beta or alpha because you may not be able to weed out bugs with logic before posting, or will post with issues related to setup that are readily solvable with troubleshooting that will frustrate you but that you need to be able to solve yourself. Can of worms awaits if you are unprepared.

Nexus 5 AppRadio 2 issue

Hey guys, hoping I can find some help here. I recently bought a Pioneer AppRadio 2 (SPH-DA100). The headunit has firmware v 8.30 on it. I'm using a Nexus 5 stock kit-kat 4.4.4 with root. When I connect my phone via bluetooth I can see my contacts and make calls, but when I try to connect to the AppRadio app via ARU I get a "Connection Failed" message as soon as it gets to 75%. I've tried using multiple versions of CM11 for the Nexus 5 and ParanoidAndroid 4.5 with Franco kernel with no luck. I'm not sure what else I can try as there is really nothing on Google that I can find to help with this outside trying the Franco kernel (found that in a comment thread on a youtube video). I've also tried ARLiberator with the same problem. Any help is much appreciated.
[Android General] stargate125645:
What procedure did you use to set up the connection? Do you have the stock application still installed? Did you approve root access? Did you approve all BT prompts and select not to show the prompts again when possible? Do you have a microbypass installed?

These should be standard troubleshooting questions in the FAQ, by the way, Area51 (I know some are already).
[Android General] ollid2:
Ok, i will think about it
[Android General] clem_ita:
Ok thanks, that's good enough for me. I'll probably start saving some bucks to buy the AR3 soon :good:
[Android General] freenfast:
What is the correct connection order/process?

As you say this is not in the FAQ.
[Android General] duckster18:
I connected via selecting AppRadio in my phone bluetooth connection, and searching for my phone on the headunit itself. I don't have the stock AppRadio application installed on my phone. I approved root access and all BT prompts. Don't have a microbypass, but I installed a relay switch.

The one that is listed in the manual.

---------- Post added at 10:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 AM ----------

In fairness, way too many people post and ask questions that a simple internet search or reading the manual would solve. It's hard to devote time to something that people won't bother reading as a general rule.

At 75% is when the data connection is made for touch. Area51 should be able to explain it better, but something is preventing the data connection. What that could be I'm not sure, assuming you are approving all necessary prompts and telling the phone not to ask again. Sometimes clearing BT connection data and application data helps. Make sure you aren't being connected via BT audio streaming or Pandora, as that will screw up the connection as well.
[Android General] dclarolh:
So are you connected to the head unit with HDMI or USB?

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:46 AM ----------

So I actually fixed the the issue with my nexus 7 (stock, rooted android 4.4.3). I would up using the SE Linux Mode Changer app and switched it to permissive. Unfortunately I guess this setting is more permanent on my nexus 5 which uses android L(stock, rooted). I can't seem to figure out how to switch it from enforcing to permissive on Android L.

If anyone knows how it would be much appreciated.
[Android General] duckster18:
Please don't assume I have not done anything to fix this, the reason I came to this thread is because I have basically gone through all other options and this is my last hope, since this is the dedicated thread to the APU app.I have searched the internet for this, I spent all afternoon Saturday and majority of Sunday searching the internet for this issue and have not found much on it. Most info I find that on this issue are for the iPhone 5, which I've tried just for the heck of it. I've done my own troubleshooting and have spent multiple hours trying different kernels and ROMs on my phone to figure this out, along with trying to downgrade the firmware on the Pioneer headunit. The manual for the headunit tell you how to connect the bluetooth device, either by selecting AppRadio on you phone or finding your phone via bluetooth search on the headunit.

If this will make things clearer, when I turn on the headunit and click on the Apps icon, I get this "connecting to smartphone 50%" it will change to "connecting to smartphone 75%" for less than a second (if you blink you will miss it) then it goes to "connection failed". I've tested the bluetooth connection and verified that the headunit can access the phone, all my contacts and phone logs appear on the headunit and I'm able to make calls with no issues. This did the same thing when I was running stock android 4.4.4 with root and the Pioneer AppRadio android app, just to test if it was an issue with the ARU app. The Nexus 5 isn't on the compatible list on Pioneer's website, so Pioneer won't really help cause of this, but I've seen multiple YouTube videos and a few threads showing that the Nexus 5 does work fine with this headunit, including this thread.
[Android General] 400ixl:
Try going into setting - apps - ARU and force stopping the app followed by deleting the app data and cache.

Then delete the SU permission granted to the ARU app in whatever app you use e.g. SuperSU.

Next delete the bluetooth pairing from both the HU and the phone and start all over again.

So i'm a bit confused. What is the difference between ARU and ARUR?

You can actually do both. When you put the car in reverse it will automatically trigger the camera on the Radio but on the main screen you will also have a button on the top right that allows you to activate the camera at any time.

That is good to know...... So just by installing the AR3 using the factory harness adapter it will know when you go into reverse. Very cool!!

I did try that and it was still giving me the same "connection failed" at 75%.

I found these instructions and they ended up helping, followed the top half using ARLiberator, did the bottom half using ARU, had to redo bluetooth connection a few times and headunit power cycles, but it started working and i did a couple power cycles on the head unit and it continued to work. Not sure what difference these instructions made, I disconnected bluetooth, cleared out pairing connection, and created new pairing connection about 20 times. Thanks for the help

The Genuine Samsung MHL 2.0 adapter with a 2amp+ charger may make a difference over a cheap or MHL 1.0 one.

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

ARU is an adaption / wrapper around the Pioneer App ARUR is a ground up written application without a reliance on the Pioneer app.
[Android General] stargate125645:
My guess is the initial connection was not done properly. Sometimes the BT prompts disappear before you approve them or know about them. Having the phone plugged in can screw up the initial connection, too. Once it is set up, order doesn't really matter with ARU. For ARL and ARUR it does matter depending upon options selected.

Bluetooth mic with swype keyboard

So I emailed the Swype developers about making the AR3 mic work with their keyboard, the first email I got back said "Swype + Dragon App is compatible with some of the bluetooth devices out in the market but not all of them. Please let me know if you have anymore questions."

Yeah, OK. I replied asking if they could make Swype + Dragon work with the AR3 and got this "We will let our product team know of your request on making our app be compatible with "Pioneer Appradio 3" and other bluetooth devices. This will definitely be on our "List of Improvements". We are always looking for ways to improve the app and encourage you to periodically check Google Play for the latest updates."

For anyone who also uses Swype and wants either the AR2 or the AR3 mic to work with it, email the developer so they know there's a demand for it.

If your favorite keyboard is something else, do the same thing. Ask the dev to make it work with the AppRadio mic.
