So far both Quantum V3.21 AND Slimkat beta 2.4 weekly have both worked fine for me (both cm based). Bonus: since switching to 4.4.x I've been able to use Screen Standby app!

Don't think either has fast charge tho, but have seen talk by Quantum dev about possibly adding.

Verizon Samsung S3 ARU Config

All,

I've hit most all the issues, thanks to this thread most of them are sorted out. I'm connecting very reliably now. ScreenStandby Lite isn't working, and I slowly lose the battery. Everything else is working great.

Here is what did and didn't work for me:

AppRadio 3 SPH-DA110

ARU beta5

Verizon Galaxy S3 SCH-I535

Verizon 4.3

Rooted with saferoot

Bluetooth Auto Connect

Tasker

Taskkill for Tasker

Micro Bypass for SPH-DA110

Rearview Camera - TaoTronics® TT-CC17 Waterproof Color CMOS Car License Plate Frame Mount Rear View Backup Camera with 8 IR LED Night Vision

DID NOT WORK:

Rocketfish MHL with Samsung S3 adapter

Counterfeit Samsung MHL - the message about this saved me but saw that my box also had pasted on label on Samsung box - massive snow

ARU GPS - not with Google Maps at least for me - keeps prompting for built-in GPS toggle - I think Area51 said Google changed this recently. Not a big deal as I like WAZE and the HU GPS.

WORKS:

Genuine MHL 2.0 Samsung Adapter - this adapter worked awesome from the first hookup - However Samsung standard shipping was horrible - it took weeks to actually get it - I would suggest paying an extra $20 to get expedited shipping

Also working, I bought the AllShare dongle - works - sorta - it took a while to figure out how to connect to it with Verizon - works with a lot of music pops and lags

Was pleasantly surprised that I could voice recognize into WAZE, Google, Gtasks

Finally I ended up adding some steps to Mase's tasker profile. I hit on what works well for my phone after an hour of playing with tasker. Here you go:

CONNECT

1. Kill App -> Bluetooth Auto Connect Use Root On

2. Bluetooth -> Set Off

3. Taskkill -> Configuration Method= Extreme; Package=jp.pioneer.mbg.appradio.AppRadioLauncher

4. Keyguard -> Set Off

5. Rotation Locker -> Configuration Rotation state: Landscape Background service: Enable

6. Wait -> 2 seconds

7. Bluetooth -> Set On

8. Wait -> 2 seconds

9. Load App -> Bluetooth Auto Connect (In Profiles Media Audio (A2DP) is the only one selected, Events Bluetooth On - selected), Settings Screen Action - Enable Bluetooth)

10. Wait -> 2 seconds

11. Load App - App AppRadio Unchained Data %ROOT

DISCONNECT

1. Go Home -> Page 0

2. Kill App -> App AppRadio Unchained Use Root On

3. Bluetooth -> Set Off

4. Rotation Locker -> Configuration Rotation state: Auto, Background service: Disable

5. Bluetooth -> Set On

Awesome app, awesome thread, thanks Area 51 and everyone that contributes!

You mind uploading your Tasker profile? Like to give it a shot.
[Android General] conmetal:
Is there any benefit of having the Appradio 3 over the Appradio 2 with this software? Other than the CD/DVD capability of course......... Thanks in advance
[Android General] Area51©:
ARU GPS will overrule built-in GPS even if you have to keep it enabled for Google Maps/Navigate.
[Android General] Area51©:
Another benefit is that you can do A2DP music streaming when you are lazy and don't want to connect your phone to the HU with a cable.
[Android General] ForLeeWase:
With Pioneer-approved-gps-apps, like waze, it isn't possible to use the GPS from the phone neither. I'm still using ARL because it's the only way to use Waze, which it's the better app I've found to avoid traffic jams for a well known route (driving to work every day). When I don't know the route, I use the HU Built-in Nav system or Google maps navigation.

I'm trying to ask Waze Support a version with an option for disabling the pioneer sdk implementation, but they don't understand my problem, I supose it's for my bad english.

As I said many posts ago, I would like to be a tester if you need it. I have the european equivalent (F50BT)
[Android General] Area51©:
Yes your English is so bad I don't understand it either;) What Waze should really do it to enable Pioneer SDK depending on the model that is reported by the SDK. Also it wouldn't be too difficult to hack Waze so it won't use the Pioneer SDK, however you need to do that every time a new version comes out.

Thanks for the reminder.

Got a little snow/black screen for the first time today, which went away after wiggling MHL adapater. Could be an indicator that my "Official" Samsung MHL 2.0 Adapter is indeed faulty, possibly explaining why it wont work while connected to a power source. Bought one off of Amazon fulfilled by TigerDirect so hopefully it will have hologram and it will either resolve issue or rule out MHL adapter as the cause, then I can move on to removing radio for the THIRD time and swap HDMI cables.

Mind you I have AppRadio 3, but my Note 3 is mirroring. Like M.A.S.E. said, the first step is to change connection method on HU from iPhone to "Other". If you're not sure how, check the manual on the AppRadio website.

[Android General] Area51©:
Nope. Some people have the original app installed and then ARU won't install. So your issue is something else.

AR2 doesn't have that setting unless you upgraded to the latest firmware.

installing problems

Hi,

i installed arunchained0.15.apk and ARUnchained GPS Injector on my rooted HTC One (4.3).

Mirroring is working and also Navigating is working. However i noticed that the accuracy is very bad and GPS is very slow and nearly unusable. When i use the original Appradio App i have no issues with the GPS. It is quick and very accurate.

I have read this post and followed all your steps and searched this thread for possible solutions to my problem.

Since i am quite new to the Android world (former IOS..) I am not too familar with tasker scripting.:( I added some simple tasks, but that's it. No scripts, etc.

My problem furthermore is that on my HTC ONE i experience follwing problems:

After pressing long and choose convert to system app my phone crashes immediately (reboots) without intervention from me. After reboot i can see a HTC message that phone crashed and would like to send a report to HTC (which i didn't do)....

I tried it a couple times, I found another thread where someone has successfully converted it to a system app by checking an option in Titanium Backup Pro *Menu; Preferences; Advanced Settings; Check the box "Auto-integrate sys Dalvik into"

Same result. :(

I searched for the file "mars.area51.arunchainedgps.apk" under "/system/app". I then searched under the whole root directory for this apk (did a wildmask search for "area51") but was unable to find it.

I then did a recovery from TWRP to get a clean install and installed ARUnchained GPS Injector from the play store again.

I then tried it the manual way and installed root explorer pro and searched for the .APK but I couldn't find the .APK under /data/app".

After searcing the entire root directory i was able to find only a file named: "mars.area51.arunchainedgps-1.asec" under /data/app-sec/ (See attached picture) and some other directories under /data/data/mars.area51.arunchainedgps and /data/user/0/mars.area51.arunchainedgps and "mnt@asec@mars.area51.arunchainedgps-1@pkg.apk@classes.dex in /data/dalvik-cache/.

Again, please see attached picture.

I tried moving the file "mars.area51.arunchainedgps-1.asec" to /system/app and restarted the phone.

But after restart it wasn't there.

On some other forum i read that if problems to convert app to system apps with Titanium backup you must have "S-OFF".

Could someone help me as i am really getting frustrated.

Perhaps i am trying tasker as you mentioned, but i don't understand your script and how i can implement it.

Do you have an howto or please drive me to the correct directions ?

Best Regards,

levian71

Just installed an appradio 2 in my truck, rooted my sprint s3 and installed arunchained0.15.apk and as far as I can tell seems to be working great. Any problems I'm having are prolly due to my not knowing what the heck I'm dooin lol.

One thing I've noticed is phone service only seems to work with the head unit when the mhl cable is not connected. Once connected I can't make or receive calls. Any ideas ?

Thanks!
[Android General] maxum3300:
I ordered the same adaptor from Amazon fulfilled by tiger direct. It will be here tomorrow. I will look for the Samsung hologram and test it out. Hopefully it will work ok. The problem with my setup was I had a aftermarket 5 to 11 pin adaptor that killed cell and gps signal. Hopefully this adaptor will work better. If not I will go back to using the all share cast. I've only had it a couple days and day one want very successful, but tried it again last night and got it to work flawlessly. No lag or audio degradation. Turned the truck off and tried reconnecting and this time it was lagging. Need to try to find the proper connection process that worked the first time. If the mhl works I won't need to mess with the all share cast.

---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 PM ----------

What brand of mhl cable are you using? It is recommended to use a genuine Samsung mhl cable. I too had the same problem. I ordered both the Samsung all share cast which is wireless and the genuine Samsung mhl 2.0 adaptor. The first time i used the all share cast the video had a tendency to lag and audio is garbled but I think it have have something to do with my connection process. I was able to get it to work perfectly last night but haven't messed with it any today. I've only had it two days so I'm still up in the air on its performance. There are a lot of fake mhl adaptors on the market that people try to pass off as genuine Samsung so to be sure you get a genuine item is best to order from Samsung. Problem is its on backorder with Samsung. I ordered one from Amazon yesterday that claims to be a genuine item and is being shipped out by tiger direct. Hopefully it is a genuine Samsung item. It should be here tomorrow so I will report back and let you know whether it is authentic and if it works without disrupting the cell signal. Have you tried turning your gps on while using your mhl? Anytime I turned my gps on it would kill my hdmi connection and the screen would go black.
[Android General] irockwithdirt:
One installed at the moment is a generic but I also have what is supposed to be a genuine samsung which was giving me the same results.

I have the galaxy note 3 with ARU installed.

I purchased an auvio mhl adapter from radio shack (best buy and ATT were sold out of the Samsung adapter)

I have a 1A car charger. The phone doesn't charge but it doesn't drain either. I'm currently looking for a 2A car charger.

Turn off auto connect.

Connect the mhl adapter then go into your Bluetooth settings and connect to the radio.

Then wait for it to pair.

Works great for me

Worked like a charm.

I was actually able to connect my Usb charger from HU to this one without it disconnecting the HDMI. Oddly though it did disconnect HDMI when I plugged in cigarette lighter charger. So I'm going to buy another cigarette lighter charger and see if it will work cut HU power isn't enough to charge phone.

Thanks to Sym_link for posting the link to this, great find as the MHL adapter wont connect properly to my Note 3 with the case on it. That extension does the trick....and also allows you to have the MHL/HDMI/Charger cables tucked away in the center console.

Voice dictation through hu mic

I've used the hu mic to do voice search for Waze and Google search. I didn't try texting.

How do you activate the mic? Pressing mic button on phone, or is there a way to speak and activate it?
[Android General] Vissionary:
So I've been using screen standby and it works on and off...more so than not. Anyways, every now and then I would get some static and screen flashing on and off on the HU's screen so I uninstalled screen standby. Isn't the screen supposed to stay on with the HDMI active? My phone's screen goes off thus causing the HU's screen to go black. Any help would be appreciated. I'd rather not use a screen on widget to deal with this...

[Android General] TEK112:
It sounds like your screen is timing out. Go into developer settings and check the option that the screen doesn't turn off while charging and see if that helps.
[Android General] Vissionary:
Thanks but I'm aware of that option. I'd rather not since I don't want the screen on every time it's charging. From what I remember with my GSII and N4 the screen would stay on when in HDMI display mode :confused:
[Android General] cwalkin:
Question? If you want audio to play via HDMI instead of bluetooth, shouldn't I unselect A2DP in Profiles and select Call Audio?
[Android General] Area51©:
First of all, it should work even when you don't convert it to a system app. I recommend getting it to work first as a normal app then later try to convert it to a system app. You then have to manually enable mock locations in the developer options first.

Connect to your HU and open the Injector app and see what's going there. Status should be connected and Msg count should count up at a rate of about once per second. If this isn't the case you can try to press the Stop and then the Start button. If you get a different status report it here.

Now start the app that you want to use the GPS with and see if it's working. Btw, what app are you using?

The file "mars.area51.arunchainedgps-1.asec" is the apk file saved in an encrypted container by the Google play store. To be honest I don't know if that can be converted to a system app and will still work as I never buy my own app. Is there anyone here that actually managed to convert the encrypted apk to a system app? If so, how?

installing problems cont.

Hi, thanks for your answer. It works as a normal app, but the accuracy is very poor. When i'm doing a turn while driving it takes up to 20 seconds that it recocnizes my new location and then does a recalculation. I don't have this when i am using the official Appradio app.

When i am starting the GPS injector i can see messages increasing and see values in Latitude/Longitude.However the status keeps saying "Mock disabled". When i use the stop button i can see "service not runnnig". When i start it again the messages are increasing but the status stays at "Mock disabled".

As Navigation Apps i tried Copilot, Navfree, Sygic and google maps.

I am using Pure² MHL Adapter as my Pioneer adapter provided snow..This is showing almost no snow (2 an hour maybe)

I am waiting on new ferrit cables and want to install them next week. do you think this will improve the accurancy problem ?

Kind regards,

The screen doesn't stay on every time it charges, it just won't turn off. Meaning at home you turn off the screen and it stays off. In the car you just leave it on.

I asked a similar question before but this is different approach.

Is there any way possible to disable AR2's built in phone app.

In theory, this would allow the phone app on my Note 3 to behave as normal. Thus allowing me to access other android apps during a phone call.

[Android General] m.a.s.e:
that will require modification to the AR firmware which is not possible (yet). So the quick answer is, no.
[Android General] 400ixl:
With SuperSU and Busybox installed with updated binaries?

The HU is responding to the calibration touches, but then no longer after that with no symbol coming up when you try? Assuming you are not doing the calibration on the phone.

Are you in the US?
[Android General] sinbrad:
Exactly as stated, calibration done on the HU & I'm in the UK
[Android General] 400ixl:
IIRC that is the point at which root is required. The initial calibration is done purely using the functionality within the original Pioneer app. Once complete it then needs root to start injecting touch at a system level through a virtual driver created by the added code to the original app.

Only things I can suggest if you believe SuperSU and Busybox are installed correctly with root is to clear the app cache to re-do the calibration and to maybe even try a different launcher.

I have the pioneer kit that includes the usb power supply. Do you know if this will provide enough juice to charge my phone thru the mhl adaptor. Also I've read so many threads about this mhl adaptor I can't remember but before you got the Samsung mhl 2.0 wetter you using a different brand and had signal problems too. Reason I ask us I've seen people have the signal problem using a fake connector and still have

the problem with the genuine Samsung adaptor while others have success with the Samsung adaptor. Glad yours is working. I hope mine works as well. I'm just curious why it works for some people and not others.
[Android General] Area51©:
"Mock disabled" means that mock locations in the developer settings is not enabled so it's not possible to inject any GPS data.

To fix it enable mock locations and press Stop and then Start button.

Nope but enabling mock locations will.

Screen offset in Landscape

Got the AR3 all hooked up!!

Using some bootleg MHL adapter to connect my N900A Note 3 with Android 4.3 until my Samsung adapter comes in on Monday. ARU up and running.

Everything is working well so far. Only issues i've encountered is that when the screen starts mirroring, the phone goes to landscape mode and i cant see my whole homepage. One row of apps are missing and one app from my dock on the right side of the screen is missing. When i open and app, the whole screen is then filled. Anybody know why?

It might have something to do with touchwiz not being landscape friendly. You can probably try another launcher to see if that's the problem.

My MK908 V3 HDMI stick finally seems to work. I always had the problem that BT seemed very slow, touch would be delayed by as much as 5 seconds. Not usable. Now there's a KitKat version released. That required rooting. So I had my PC connected to the OTG port (only way to get adb access). Rooted the thing and it seemed to work (no slow BT). Then did some more tests. Instead ot PC connected power supply to the OTG port, still worked fine. Later connected power supply to the mini usb port dedicated for power, BT seemed a bit slow again. Power via OTG port, BT seemed fine.

So it seems that by just moving the asec file to /system/priv-app and then rebooting, the real apk file is extracted.
