I have an LG Optimus G Pro that supports Slimport and I've tested the one in the link below on the AVIC-Z150BH and and there was no flickering. Video quality was blurry and their were black bars on the touchscreen top and bottom(because the z150 is not necessarily supported), but it worked and no flickering. The cable design IMO is great though because it eliminates bulky adapters and cables in your lap. My recommendation(if you haven't already is too get a 3' or 6' hdmi cable and connect it to the back of the radio and then route the cable to somewhere that's hidden(but accessible) make your adapter connections there and route that to someplace that's convenient and allows you a way to tuck the adapter cable away when not in use. This way it will be easy to change adapters just in case things don't work out.

I also managed to do full wireless mirroring and touchscreen control using WiFi direct with the Samsung media hub on the AR2. Video quality was great and touch control was very close to being spot-on. Hope this helps. Good luck!

Yea I'm just lost why I'm hitting this road block.

That's what I'm getting when I try to change selinux to permissive.

When you rooted your phone did load up a bootloader that had Knox disabled?
[Android General] shaxs:
I have a 6 ft hdmi extension cable run from the head unit to the center console. Either the cable is bad or the head unit.

I also tried wireless mirroring using a Netgeat PVt3000 miracast adapter (wifi direct basically). Anytime I turn miracast on plus bluetooth, the phone gives me a message saying using both at the same time will degrade quality. And sure enough it stutters with both bluetooth and miracast are connected.
[Android General] ice_coffee:
Unfortunately that does not work, but it does allow you to use the app on the HU to initiate calls. Hopefully they will bring that functionality to an update of tablet talk (I assume it would have to set itself up as the default phone dialler in android so that google now would pass the request to tablet talk instead of the default dialler)

At least in the mean time you can use the stick and receive calls through the HU

Thanks for clearing this up. I recently installed the GPS Injector and was having the same issue. I had not yet had a chance to try it out with a different navigation app such as Waze but couldn't get my location to show up using Google Maps. Thanks for your work on these 2 great applications.

Can anyone post up what they are using as far as tasker profiles? I tried to finally get smart and automate it with tasker but so far no dice...

ATT Samsung GS4 stock rom 4.2.2 rooted, appradio2 and ARU 2.4.16

Profile -HDMI Plugged

State - HDMI Plugged ---> Task - HDMI Connect

Task - HDMI Connect

1) Taskkill

Method=Extreme

Package=jp.pioneer.mbg.appradio.AppRadioLauncher

Timeout None

2) Bluetooth

Set - Off

3) Keyguard

Set - Off

4) Rotation Locker

Rotation state: Landscape

Background service: enable

Timeout None

5) Action Wait

2 Seconds

6) Bluetooth

Set - On

7) Launch App

Appradio Unchained

Haven't even gotten to the disconnect yet since this one does not appear to work yet. I am not sure it is recognizing the HDMI plugged state because nothing happened when I plugged in. If I "run" the task manually though, it seems to all trip through the motions. If need be I don't mind having a button to press after hdmi is plugged in to run the sequence as a backup I guess
[Android General] RubenRybnik:
You could trigger the task by power connected instead ( if you have power on the ignition switch ), or possibly bluetooth connected which could toggle bluetooth off / on again, you'd have to setup a variable in Tasker to not hit an endless loop though.
[Android General] bluebell424:
you need to install the rom that have knox removed, then install the kernel that can change from enforce to permissive. if you want the rom and kernel, let me know
[Android General] Keland44:
nice if you don't mind that would be great i would definitely take a look into whatever you send over

Do you know where/how the MHL detect works? This is my first real foray into tasker doing something semi-complex/useful. I see the "HDMI Plugged' under state-hardware state but am not seeing MHL.

My fall back will likely be the bluetooth connection although the deal is every now and then it doesn't pick up. I am trying to follow the original tasker post by Sym_Link who said it works for him 100% of the time. Wondering if maybe him being on CM 11.1 with fast charge on the kernel for 1000mA had anything to do with it picking up...
[Android General] TEK112:
HDMI=MHL as far as Tasker is concerned. It all means video out.
[Android General] simonrob77:
I bought that cable, and so far so good! I did notice that the battery depleted quite quickly though, despite receiving a charge! I've not rooted my S4 yet, but looking into it as it would be great to use AR Unchained! Should it work with 4.4.2/Kitkat? Can anyone recommend a fast charge kernel?
[Android General] shaxs:
For those using android sticks. I got one today and tested a little then it broke...smh. Amazon is overnighting a new one.

Anyways, I have a few questions.

1) ARUnchained GPS app in the playstore I bought says that is is not compatible with my device. I assume I need to modify my build.prop to make the play store think I have a Galaxy S3 or something? Should I use a Nexus tablet ID? What did you guys use? And can you post the values I need to change?

2) Also, the text on the screen is super hard to see. Small. Did you just adjust text size or did you mess with DPI?

EDIT NEW QUESTION:

3) I downloaded and installed the AR Unchained for stick version. The stick outputs video to the head unit and connects via bluetooth fine. ARU says it is connected. Yet, touching the screen does not work. The home, back, and menu buttons on the head unit do not work either. Anyone know why?
[Android General] basmand:
Hi

Q1: and Q2 in genneral download on XDA "Xposed framework" and install. (see install notes on XDA)

Q1: dovnload and install module to xposed framework "All apps in play store" as I remember, but you will see it on the list when installing modules.

Q2: dovnload and install module to xposed framework "App Settings" allows you to change DPI

Q3: ??? Root, are you on JB 4.2.2 try to do the complete setup once again

So I found out what the culprit of GPS not working was; TomTom will not work with it at all. Downloaded Sygic for the hell of it and guess what?! It worked! Thanks for all the help from everyone especially Area 51 taking time from his busy day to figure out what was going on.

Can't wait to test out the standalone app!

+1 - I am having the same problem with my atrix hd rooted, unlocked, carbonrom latest 4.4.

My ipod works and plays videos.

Anyone have any idea?
[Android General] texbuck:
Do you have the HU settings to "others" rather than anything ipod?
[Android General] sirreal12:
Yes I have it set to others. Here are more details.

I pod 4.

Just upgraded AR to latest today.

My android used to work a few months ago but one day stopped. Never figured out why. The phone was never updated . and I used to use ARL. It no longer works.

My phone also connects to BT 100%.
[Android General] vietnight:
Anyone running on AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 have problem use HU touchscreen?

I have AVIC-7000NEX i can connect but not able to control from the HU, at 1st there is a while dot i can touch on the screen and Appradio launch after that i can't do anything from HU. I have ARU version 2.4.15 and 2.4.16 both didn't work, when i uninstall ARU and install Pioneer AppRadio i can control from HU.

Anyone have the same problem i have?
[Android General] petard:
Just installed an SPH-DA110 AppRadio 3 and got one of those little HDMI sticks for it. Few issues unfortunately. The calibration of the screen is not very accurate. Is there any way to use more calibration points?

Also my stick's bluetooth keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. I think this is the stick's fault. I put a KitKat ROM on there and everything works great except BT. I think I'll just flash back to a 4.2 ROM. 4.2 should be able to do what I need it to do just fine. I got excited when I saw the Moto G for just $50 and thought of getting one of those to use instead of the stick but then I realized it has no video output capabilities. What a bummer.

I was able to connect both the stick and phone at the same time. Set the stick for media audio only and the phone for both. From the bluetooth icon I can stream music from my phone and control my phone with the steering wheel. From the apps icon I can use the stick and control it from the wheel. Holding the home button launches Google Now on the phone! :)

I need to get the BT disconnects on the stick worked out and then make some tasker scripts. Since audio goes over HDMI and not bluetooth the stick will continue to play music when I turn the car off. Everything will continue going as normal. I don't want it to waste power so I'll need to make some scripts when the AppRadio BT disconnects, wait some time and then stop music, navigation, and maybe even WiFi.

You need to disable Knox and set SELinux in permissive mode. For more details see: FAQ.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Hi Guys, anyone have any suggestions on a phone to replace the note 3, i freaking hate ATT and the locked bootloader with SELINUX set to enforce...

the only prob is that the note 3 is a power house with 3GB ram.... i was looking at the one plus one but we cannot buy it yet...

so bummed i cant use ARUNCHAINED :( i miss it
[Android General] Area51©:
No suggestions, but there might be some way to get stuff working without root. There's Vmlite Vncserver that claims it works without root. Also there's Teamviewer Quicksupport with Teamviewer Quicksupport addon Samsung that works without root. I checked it on my GF's unrooted S4 and it works. It may offer some possibilities. I did some quick reverse engineering on it and have some idea how it works. It would be cool if the new ARU could work without root but it will have to wait as I am now working on getting the "normal root required" version implemented.
[Android General] m.a.s.e:
Thanks for the reply man, i have root.... but due to locked bootloader i cant replace the kernel hence se linux set to enforce...

i use teamviewer daily, but how can TMV can be used with ARU? .... :confused:
[Android General] Area51©:
It can't be used directly but I can try to use my reverse engineering skills to find out how they did it. In fact I kind of know already. They have a plug-in that is signed by Samsung that has the right to inject events without root access. Now if it's possible to use that plug-in with ARU then ARU can inject events without having root access too. It depends on whether the interface to the plug-in is protected or not. Also it depends on me being able to reverse engineer how to use the interface.
[Android General] JonandRoid:
Hey man. Had the selinux issue up until now. 4.4 kit kat is allowing me to set selinux to permissive. I upgraded my system to 4.4 still using mk2 on my s4 from the guide on the hyperdrive forum. Installed the new rls16 rom and everything is working just fine. Have to use another launcher because it gets cut off. Also Idk how but I'm getting 700mA out of my car charger..Idk how.. but I can't be any happier! Thanks for the awesome development!
[Android General] stupink:
As an update I now have it working perfectly on my S3lte android 4.3

I tried omnirom without realising that it did not support MHL, and then went to go back to 4.3 but lost my file, so downloaded it again from a different site, it was an EE uk file this time so slightly different.

All works out the box!! no playing with different modes or anything. just installed it.. plugged it in!!

Thanks greatly for the app!!!! I love it!

I am having and issue on LG G2 where my bluetooth tries connecting then disconnects. I can still hear audio and see the screen but I can't control from the screen. Bluetooth says it is connected on my phone but not in the ARU app. I have tried SELinux permissive and that doesn't change anything. Any ideas?
[Android General] mnunes:
Hi all, have been following this thread for several weeks now and am about to purchase a AVH-4000NEX to go with my HTC One M8 and ARU.

Sorry if what I'm about to ask is a very basic question but I didn't come across anyone discussing this and I don't have the hardware yet to try it out.

I realize that since the 4000 doesn't have NAV built-in it also doesn't have a GPS signal to output to the phone for mock locations. The phone is likely going to just sit in a cubby in my center console and not have a hard mount to keep it in perfect alignment all the time. It's also going to be perpendicular to the head unit rather than facing me like the head unit is.

Has anyone run into orientation-related problems running nav on their phone using their phone's built-in GPS? Will the (mirrored) screen rotate back and forth as the phone moves? I'm using Tasker with Rotation Locker but that's just to keep it in landscape while plugged in.

I'm also assuming that since I'm running this as an AppRadio, I need the CD-AH200 connection kit as opposed to the MirrorLink CD-MU200, right?

Would love to hear about start-up speed of the head unit going to built-in FM tuner and then to AppRadio mode but I fear that I'm asking too many questions already. :) Thanks in advance!
[Android General] Area51©:
Did you set the connection type on your HU to Other?
[Android General] ice_coffee:
I am using an App Radio 2 and get exactly this if I uninstall and reinstall the ARU app and try to reconnect using the bluetooth connection I set up during the previous install, it is almost as though some unique ID number is created during the install process that messes up if you try to re-install.

Anyway the following method has worked for me 100% of the time.

1) Uninstall ARU

2) unpair bluetooth connection

3) Go to settings on your android device go to Apps choose the "ALL" tab from the selection of "DOWNLOAD" "RUNNING" and "ALL"

4) ** Warning ** the following instruction may have unintended side effects on a phone use at your own risk. Find the app called settings and clear the data. This has the effect of properly removing all traces of the bluetooth connection, on my device that is all it does, in theory on other devices it may also erase your wifi password or set to default any other personal settings you altered on your device eg Time zone or Location data.

5) Go back to your bluetooth settings and make your device visible to all (Your App radio may appear as available for paring DO NOT PAIR YET) you may also want to go into advanced options and change the visibility from 2 minutes to e.g 1 hour (even if you have set this in the past it will be back at 2 mins because of instruction 4)

6) Go to the HU menu choose settings and then clear bluetooth memory (you will need to have your HDMI disconnected from your phone for this) when the memory is clear plug your HDMI back in and navigate to your bluetooth menu but don't pair anything just make sure your visibility is on

7) on the HU go to phone, then phone settings then connection and have it search for a new device to connect to, it should find your phone and give you a pairing number

8) On your phone you will need to accept the pairing request

9) Install ARU open the app, go through the normal stuff to get you to the blutooth connect screen with the white background.

10) Tap on the button on that screen that says go to bluetooth settings you will already have an active connection between the HU and your phone. turn the bluetooth off and then on

11) Press the back button to get back to ARU tap on the close button at the bottom of the white bluetooth connect screen

12) ARU will connect and start the calibration process.

What is the best way to track the progress on AppRadio Unchained Reloaded?
[Android General] Area51©:
I guess by me making a list of goals and reporting when some of those are met. But to be honest, this is still a kind of vague list in my head. I plan to make it soon. Anyway I got some more things done. Reverse engineered the message protocol in more detail. Especially the touch messages. I already had the GPS messages. Only things to do is Key and SWC messages but that is very simple. I expect to have a working prototype within a week from now. After that still a lot of work has to be done for a beta release version.
[Android General] stargate125645:
Is there a separate thread for this? Planned cost?
[Android General] Area51©:
Not yet, but it's a good idea. I should probably promote my app a bit more.

Same as ARL when the release is available in the Play store. During development it will be available at the presale price of 20$. You will then be added as a beta tester in a dedicated google + community. You will have access to early releases and take part in beta testing if desired. Later on you will then automatically get the release version.
[Android General] smoki3:
Will there are any advantages over the actual version ?

[Android General] Area51©:
There should be or nobody will buy it. I think it will have better touch response as it eliminates a lot of Pioneer overhead. Also it will include a real calibration so touches will be more precise. A wake lock will be there too. The idea is also to add some diagnostics. The goal is to improve the useability so that you won't need tasker anymore for more advanced configuration.

Some other features might be:

- Configurable key codes for SWC keys

- Configurable apps to start up upon connection

- Connection workarounds like switching bluetooth off/on for better connection.

- Work without root (will likely have some limitations and has to be researched in more detail)

Basically being it a seperate non modded app makes it a lot easier to add features.
[Android General] nosit1:
Yes! Diagnostics built from the start will probably make your solving issues much more easier than trying to guess with what the App Radio gives us (eg. nothing than we can from a log cat). Good work [MENTION=5417637]Area51©[/MENTION], you're doing a great job.
[Android General] Pig Vomit:
I've got the 4000 and you'll love it as a head unit. So far I've been very unlucky with a number of things with my installation and ARU. I am using it with a Nexus 5 and Slimport.

The first problem I ran into was my initial MicroUSB extension cord was only a 4-wire. For Slimport (and probably MHL as well) it matters to have the right cable. Don't make that mistake if you are using an extension for a cleaner install (sorry, don't want to have to look at the ugly MHL/Slimport adapter and three wires.....just want to see one).

The second, potentially bigger, problem is the parking brake override. The 4000 requires an override different than any other override in the Pioneer line, different than all the other NEX units. This has taken time for my installer to figure out....which we think we've done, and I am having it installed tomorrow.

I'll post back and try to answer all your questions at that time, as until now I haven't actually gotten it to work yet. Now, onto my next concern (below).

[Android General] ice_coffee:
Have you considered running this kick starter style, that way you can get some money in now, and maybe dedicate a real block of your working time to this instead of trying to fit it in around your paying work. This way you can treat it as crowd funded contract work.

I know I would be first in line to pay up and I'm sure there are many others here who would too.

Hopefully you can allow for selectable touch areas in your new build, as you know I have an issue with a 720p touch area on a 1080p touch canvas

NEX-8000 and HTC One M8 working here. Not perfectly, but working. I truly appreciate [MENTION=266368]area51[/MENTION] efforts on this and look forward to being a beta tester!

A few questions.

1. Since NEX 8000 has Navi, I assume the GPS Injector will not work. When I open Google Maps, I get GPS lock from the HTC One. But when I open Waze, I do not get GPS at all. Is there a setting or tweak that forces Waze to look for GPS from my HTC and not the NEX?

2. On occasion, when I plug in the HTC, I get no control on head unit. When I do screen touches, I get the Finger point to the Red X on top right. I have Others and HDMI selected in Smartphone Setup. Bluetooth is connected. The fix is to reboot the HTC to get it working. Not sure if there is some other setting I am missing.

3. I did test Screen Standby Root and it worked. Was hesitant since it looks development has gone dormant. After I establish connection with NEX, I open the SSR app and turn on the screen standby. Head unit shows display while HTC is off. I turn off SSR on the head unit and then unplug HTC. But it looks like it freezes up and am unable to unlock the screen, requiring another reboot. Not sure if anyone has some ideas, but this feedback may help others.
