Hi All,

ok so i have zipped the files needed to root the MK809III and added additional files:

Instructions:

Use Windows 7.

*. Unrar the compressed file to a folder on ur computer.

*. Plug the stick power supply to the wall outlet.

*. Attach the supplied micro USB to the SIDE micro usb port on the stick.

*. Connect to your computer USB port.

*. Let windows "try" to find the drivers, it will fail.

*. Point to the "Driver" folder i provided for the appropriate driver (go to the subfolder per ur OS).

--- if this doesnt work for u, let me know i have additional files and i dont remember which one worked, ill supply if needed ---

*. After driver installed and u verified the device is recognized in device manager go to the folder u extracted and run "TPSparkyRoot.bat"

*. Follow the script instructions. If will ask u to connect --> it will say if it recognized and ask u to click the enter key to reboot the stick --> let it reboot, once it is again recognized in ur USB port and fully powered on --> click enter again on the script --> repeat this step according to the script output 3 times.

*. After the stick is rebooted 3 times (never take it out of the USB port) it will be rooted on the last reboot.

*. Configure to ur home WiFi.

*. Configure ur google account and everything as u want.

*. Run to ur car with a stupid smile on ur face and tell ur wife/child/dog "i did it, i did it".

*. Connect to ur car BT using keyboard and mice, configure everything.

*. Write on facebook this post "MK809III + AR3 = Pure awesomeness" and ignore all the replies and let ur friends freak out cause they dont know what they hell u r talking about.

:)

Appradio Unchained noobie

If I could get some assistance with my issue regarding Appradio Unchained is be the happiest guy in the world.

So I've got the Appradio 3, I've rooted my phone, I've downloaded ARU, even paid for theGPS injector from the Google Play Store and given all of these apps super user access as required. With all that being done, I still can't get full mirroring on my head unit. If someone could give Step by step, word for word process of how to get full mirroring is be oh so grateful. Is there something in missing?
[Android General] 400ixl:
Have you rooted your phone? If yes, have you given the app SU permissions?

You can listen to the radio or iPod whilst in Android App mode. Double press home to bring up the bar and select mix, followed by your choice.
[Android General] Hammer3246:
S3 with 4.4.2, Appradio 2. I couldn't get the latest alpha to work so I tried the free unchained one to try and eliminate possible problems I can get touch and everything working, but I can't get any sound out of the HU. Wtf could be wrong it was working fine before.

---------- Post added at 04:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------

Okay, got the alpha working, but still no sound coming from the HU.
[Android General] Area51©:
Did you connect MHL to Slimport adapter. Did you pair Bluetooth? Did you set the HU bluetooth connection setting to Others?
[Android General] Area51©:
Sound is sent via HDMI, ARU or Reloaded doesn't do anything with that. So it's entirely to the HU firmware and the Android version you are running. Did you update the HU firmware? There were problems with a newer version of that so hopefully you didn't do that. If you have a custom Android ROM then that could also be the cause.
[Android General] Hammer3246:
I updated to 4.4.2. Everything is stock and im on the bell network. I was receiving audio previous to this, and the HU hasn't been updated.
[Android General] Jemmar2012:
I've changed that last thing on the head unit, the setting is now on other and it's working perfectly. Thank you so much.

Is nexus 5 4.4.3 fully compatiple with APPRADIO 3 (SPH-DA210)?

Would really like to thank Area51 for his hard work and everyone elses support. Does anyone know or can confirm that the Nexus 5 is working fine on stock rooted 4.4.3 with APPRADIO 3 (SPH-DA110)? I still have 4.4.2 from when I purchased it and everything works perfect...we'll after having to replace my cheap hdmi cable which was causing snow and now have an hdmi with ferrite cores that fixed it. I purchased super user app and have the option checked "survival mode" and read that people have done an ota update without having to reroot. Please if anyone can confirm..I am new to all this and don't want to risk issues. Thanks again! Confirmation number: 60274639RY1873020
[Android General] stargate125645:
You would be better off asking that question about keeping root access in your phone's carrier-specific forum, I would think. Whether or not a rooted Nexus 5 is compatible with this application someone can probably answer here.
[Android General] FingerBlastJ:
anybody else have issues with injector since 4.4.2?

I have it check in ARU to autostart, but it doesnt.

when i go to injector i hit start and i dont get coordinates.

i obviously made injector a system app in TiBu

Any help is much appreciated
[Android General] seburton:
I'm on 4.4.4 and GPS injector work only with Google map and waze.

Other specific says they localize me but don't show myself on the map...
[Android General] FingerBlastJ:
Those are the 1s im having issues with.

Waze tells me no gps and that i should go outside when im in my car lol

And google just keeps searching for satellites and announces it.

Im gonna try and tighten the screws on the back of the phone, but toher than that im lost.
[Android General] sicwithit:
Yes I just want to know if this app would be compatible on a Nexus 5 on stock rooted 4.4.3. I don't mind if I have to reroot. Thanks again.
[Android General] ric3p0wer:
My N5 is on stock 4.4.4 and ARU works well. I have some connection issues on the ARU Reloaded, but it's only a matter of what I need to turn on/connect first (e.g. turn on bluetooth before I connect to the the head unit).

In terms of re-root situation, I agree with stargate125645. From my experience, I had to re-root several times because I screwed up during the root process...but I think well worth it (a good learning experience for me). There are many, easy to follow youtube tutorials on how to update a rooted nexus 5 devices without losing any data, which I've done from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4. But i just cant remember which tutorial I've followed (i'm sure they're all relatively the same)
[Android General] dredq:
You do not have the phone mirrored on the radio. You are viewing the phone via HDMI, but do not have the full BT connection. That is why you do not have touch control on the radio (red x and hand indicate this). Do you have moc location checked in the developer section? Play with getting the phone to state that is connected and toggle the BT and/or unplug plug the phone. It is a really frustrating process but once you get it, it is worth it. Good luck.
[Android General] HueMann:
Yep, as others have pointed out, I also am having issues after 4.4.2 Samsung s4 gt-i9506 update. But I believe my biggest problem (for some odd reason) is that I am not able to activate developer settings! So until I can do that I'm stuck using the official appradio app. For only with the original app from the app store do I have touch controls. Sadly it's appradio interface and not my phone display.

Edit: developer settings in place, still no touch controls.
[Android General] leobg:
Check if it says status unlicensed. This could be a reason for your problems. Injector needs internet connection to verify license every now and then. If that happens when your phone/stick is offline, it becomes unlicensed which causes it to stop injecting location data.
[Android General] sukimu:
ARUnchained is like a ladder...

Every day i figure out something new...

At first i wasn't able to mirror...

Then i established mirroring with no sound...

Now i got sound and mirror...

Problem is i cant touch the unit to control the phone...:confused:

T-Mobile Note 3, rooted. i have given SU permission to ARU

Any help from you guys is very appreciated

---------- Post added at 02:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:56 PM ----------

However mock location is ticked on :confused:

I have had little time to just sit in the car and play with it.

last time i did, i killed the battery :p

This would be the last step to figure out though. at least i'm close :victory:
[Android General] 400ixl:
As its a Samsung phone, is SELinux in permissive mode?
[Android General] sukimu:
yes

Yes DE Linux is set to permissive and location mocking is set to on
[Android General] FingerBlastJ:
So i uninstalled and reinstalled injector.

I did not make it a system app just yet, just troubleshooting for now.

When i opened it, it said mock locations not set yet, so i checked allow mock locations.

Started the app and all i get is starting service while i have 3 4g bars but it never starts the service.
[Android General] jlleiber:
Okay, have some more follow up. I finally got my calibration to work out. For some reason the only way I could get the touches to register is to touch slightly above the white dots that pop up. If I tried touching right on them, it would fail. So, after touching just about all the dots, it went through and now I'm calibrated. Even though I had to touch above the dots, all of my touches register exactly where I touch them and I don't get any keyboard errors or the like. Glad I worked this out - everything is flawless now and it connects in 15 seconds or so.
[Android General] ebjustin:
bump...Still need to know if Arunchained will work if phone is rooted but write protection is not disabled. I'm using a PTV3000 mirracast display adapter and can see the phone's screen on the Appradio2 but the appradio touchscreen or buttons does not control the phone.
[Android General] vpn2001:
N900T with AppRadio2

After much searching, I have found the settings which works with no problems.

For those with a Note 3. Attached are screenshots of my settings.

Clear data/cache for AppRadio bluetooth settings. Clear bluetooth settings on AppRadio.
[Android General] Area51©:
Is your HU receiving any satellites? There's some entry in the settings menu on the HU to check that.
[Android General] stargate125645:
Did you follow the instruction manual setup, and enable Others in the settings on the radio? Not sure what write protection means, unless you mean for the external SD card which is blocked by Android itself (but can be fixed if you are rooted), which isn't where you want to install the application anyway.
[Android General] dredq:
I feel your pain. I went thru a very similar process, always close but no cigar. Play with the USB debugging. I have found having USB debugging I get mirroring. Turn on off BT at the head unit. Try ARU reloaded. Unplug and plug the phone after you have a connection. I think you are very close. Don't give up it is worth it. This is an amazing app with Appradio 3.
[Android General] ice_coffee:
NOTE 3 users, don't forget you also need to set your SE linux to permissive (which is currently not possible for AT&T users)
[Android General] sukimu:
Okay

What if you have USB debugging on, SE Linux set to permissive, gave su granted permission and mocking locations are on, but you still can't touch the unit to control your phone?
[Android General] mad212:
I have a T-Mobile Note 3 that works fine except for a few hard reboots once in a while. It's just a matter of finding the right custom rom and kernel that works. As of now I'm using Omega rom with lean kernel. I also know Xnote rom works.
[Android General] stargate125645:
T-mobile doesn't lock the bootloader. It's not the same thing between carriers so we need to be cognizant of this when giving out advice - especially since people will spend a lot of money to get this set up to work and that may be futile depending upon their phone and carrier.
[Android General] dredq:
I think this is a great point. Would it make sense for people that have success connecting compile a list of exactly how they connect with each phone/carrier so that someone with the same phone would not have to go thru all the trials of getting their phone to connect? Posting then in an easily accessible place?

Just a thought.
[Android General] stargate125645:
There is a list in this thread somewhere. The problem is people (not singling anyone out) don't understand the complexity of what programmers have made simple for us. If it works for them, it works for anyone. People accept OTA updates without hesitation and then complain when things no longer work. And then there are people that don't read or search for answers. Never ending fight.

[Android General] nop56773:
Hi Area51,

Quick question. It's not clear to me if the GPS injector is in the Reloaded App. I'm using that (version 0.06), but my gps seems to be from the internal smartphone GPS (I installed a GPS app and it shows the number of satellites in lock). Is this supposed to be like this?

Thanks in advace!
[Android General] Kaczman:
When plugged in and working, does AR Unchained get sound for the radio from bluetooth, phone speaker, or headset?

How do I get back to the main app radio screen from AR Unchained? In ARLIberator you could click the computer icon, which allowed you access to the reverse camera. But I cannot find a way to get back to the main app radio screen while AR Unchained is running to edit the settings.
[Android General] stargate125645:
You'll have to be more specific on what you mean with your first question as it doesn't make sense to me. Unless specifically steaming bluetooth audio or on a phone call, sound has always been transmitted via HDMI to the head unit, regardless of which application you use on your phone to connect to the head unit.

If you want to access the main screen of the head unit on the AR2, you have to enter the ARU program and then hit the home key on the head unit. If you have the AR3, you can also double click the home button from any phone screen and return to the head unit main screen that way.

You should always specify which phone you are using since they do not all behave alike. GPS injection is included in the Reloaded application. It does not, however, set mock locations automatically (at least on my Verizon LG G3) so you need to do so if yours behaves the same.

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

Same sequence as for the original pioneer application if your phone is compatible with it.
[Android General] stargate125645:
If you have the AppRadio connected via SlimPort, MHL, or some wireless solution, it automatically sends video and sound out. The issue you may run into is whether your custom ROM supports MHL, SlimPort, etc., like your stock ROM does.
[Android General] Area51©:
GPS Injector is included in Reloaded. When connected, just click the menu (next to settings icon) and then GPS. It should show the GPS data and at Status also shows whether it's injecting or not. When you have installed it the normal way from the Play store it won't be able to switch mock locations on and off. However when you convert it to a system app (in a similar way as the GPS injector) it should be able to switch mock locations on and off. Note that it will only switch mock locations on/off when it was initially off. If it was initially on it won't touch the mock location setting.
[Android General] mrtubz69:
Troubleshoot.

hey guys i have everything running, with my galaxy note 3 (rooted of course) and running ARU. but when i engage the apps button on my AR3 the touchscreen wont let me use it, and displays a hand and a no touch sign everytime you touch the screen.

ALSO no calibration screen has ever come up:crying:
[Android General] Area51©:
There's no SPP Bluetooth connection then. Did you set the Bluetooth connection on the HU settings to Others instead of Iphone?
[Android General] stayupthetree:
Any plans on Reloaded getting to the Play Store?
[Android General] Area51©:
Yes, soon. I am finishing a few things but I also have a new assignment at a customer so I can't work fulltime on it anymore.
[Android General] AliMusa:
I installed my AppRadio 3 head unit today, launched ARU and everything works fine for the most part, however, I have to keep my phone at a certain angle to get the phone mirrored onto the screen. Otherwise the screen will stop mirroring or it will show the static. I'm using the monoprice 5 ft HDMI cable with the Analogix slimport sp1003 if that helps. My assumption is the HDMI cable may be too long but could it be something else?
[Android General] stargate125645:
I would bet one of your connections is not secure if you are certain that the static only happens when your phone is held a certain way, presumably between the SlimPort adapter and either the phone or one of the other connecting cables. You may have a bad cable or adapter if it happens otherwise. You should also test it with a TV to see if the static can be replicated.
[Android General] seburton:
I remember the same issue on my phone.

And for me it come from the kernel I was using.

If you are on a custom rom, try to change your kernel.

If not, I don't know
[Android General] AliMusa:
I'm going to make sure all my connections are nice and snug and hopefully either that was the problem or it was the kernel. I ordered another, shorter, cable from monoprice so if it actually is the cable, the next cable should fix the issue.

I am on franco kernel, so I'll revert back to stock to see if the problem continues.
[Android General] stargate125645:
I don't know why people take chances. Bluejeans Cable has never steered me wrong.
[Android General] AliMusa:
It seems as though the problem is the SlimPort is too loose when connected to my Nexus 5. I don't know any other reason for the issues. The kernel was uninstalled and the problem still happened so I tried just holding the SlimPort micro usb port against the phone and there wasn't any issues unless I turned my phone to portrait mode which also caused the screen to turn into static.
[Android General] donroja:
First off, Area 51 Great work! You have turned my auto experience around forever! In fact, it will never be the same!

I have been running ARU with an AR 2 on a Verizon Note 2 for a while and it has been excellent! However, trouble has finally caught up to me... I have been running the same rom (Alliance 4.1.2) for the note 2 during this entire time. I do love the rom, but this is android and we always want to change something... Long story short, no other rom 4.2 and above has worked consistently. Fast forward to last weekend. The usb charging port finally went bad on the note 2 and I thought I'd check out the Lg G3... Let me first start out by saying I love this thing! However, same issues. The connection to ARU is flaky at best!

I rooted the G3 with Ioroot, installed busybox, SU, and ARU. I bought an accel slimport from amazon and stayed with the 2A car charger. I setup ARU properly with the head unit, but **** just doesn't work! 1 out of 10 times maybe, everything connects the way it should... I've been through the calibration. I can get to the mirrored screen with the finger and X every time, but that's not saying much, but it does tell me it's not the slim hdmi adapter. I've tried setting AR autoconnect to off and I seemed to have better luck, but it is now back to failing at 75% almost every time. I've unpaired the connection from phone and device multiple times and repaired. I just don't know what to do with this thing... Has anybody gotten a Verizon device 4.2.x or higher to connect reliably, every time? Is there anything that I am missing? Any help would be appreciated guys! Thanks and sorry for venting, but it looks like my ARU and AR2 days are coming to an end!
[Android General] dredq:
I have had a stock rom VS980 Lg G2 4.4.2 connect every time and connect quickly. It was very reliable. Switch Rom to Paranoid 4.4+. Connection is a pain and time consuming but once it connects, it works perfectly.
[Android General] BrianBaker:
I've noticed 1 issue with my set up and it doesn't bother me much because it's pretty rare..I get that "snowy/fuzzy" screen every now and then while driving.I've noticed it's when my phone switched signal from 4G or 4GLTE into Edge mode..When it drops to edge mode the screen gets all jacked up for a few seconds until my signal goes back to anything but Edge..I'm on AT&T so it rarely happens but is there a way to fix it? I'm using the official Pioneer App Radio MHL adapter.
[Android General] chawski:
^ I was having the same problem, but a quick response from the developer gave me a fix. I have a samsung phone, so not sure how a similar function would work on a HTC, but for my phone, I went into "developer options" and toggled the "hardware overlays" option.

Ive been using this app for a few days now, and am really impressed! This app was literally my deciding factor on which headunit to buy. Pioneer owes you commission! Ive been on android since the OG Droid and this is the first free app Ive ever made a donation to the developer. It works as described, and any pm Ive sent to the developer has been responded to in less than a day!
[Android General] stargate125645:
Quality control can be an issue on adapters. I would get a new one.

---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:52 PM ----------

Donroja, my Verizon LG G3 works fine. Are you sure you have root access? You may also need ARU Reloaded since calibration does not work well in my experience with our large resolution phone. If you are unsure about spending the money on it (no guarantees), you can talk to Area51 about a trial perhaps.

Different phone...
[Android General] AliMusa:
I'll have to contact them. Hopefully they'll replace it for me.
[Android General] donroja:
When it does connect and its rare, touches are fine. When I calibrated it was fine... Its just there is absolutely no rhyme nor reason as to when it connects, whereas the note 2 would connect first try 99% of the time... Positively rooted, also running busybox and su... So frustrating! How was your initial connection Stargate? Any hiccups? How has it been since? Are you running an appradio 2 or 3?
[Android General] Meriem:
Allshare Cast Dongle

Allshare Cast Dongle outupts its own screen when HDMI is connected to a tv or monitor.

If I connect it to my F60DAB (NEX-8000) it is not recognized.

Must I change any settigs?
[Android General] stargate125645:
I'm using an AR3 but I doubt that is the difference if you are on an AR2. Did you have SuperSU install busy box via self update or did you do it a different way? Initial connection was fine/normal with ARU Reloaded; I couldn't get past calibration on ARU. I would talk to Area51 about a trial of Reloaded if I were you, or just buy it to support his work anyway. If you are close to Omaha, I may be able to help you in person.

FYI, mock locations does not work at all for our phones, at least with Google Maps.
