Anyone here use screenbeam mini adapter with appradio 2 and samsung galaxy s6 edge? I really want to use my phone and appradio again but I want wireless ability. I have almost got everything wireless I've even to samsung gear s2 just so my watch charges wirelessly too.. I love drop and go function, now if I could only get wireless charge from my samsung galaxy tab s 10.5 that would be awesome ..
[Android General] 400ixl:
Wireless charging won't keep up with the drain with ARUR casting the screen unfortunately. Just bear in mind if you are going any distance and the drain is going to be an issue to have a way to plug it in to a 2A power supply. For short journeys it is fine.

Not done it personally on that phone / cast device, but it has been reported as working on the AppRadio 3 and that uses the same method as the 2. I use Miracast all the time and have no issues with it, so the principle is sound.
[Android General] Guntert:
OK well I don't do many long trips.. now I just have to get a appradio 3.. great more money ..
[Android General] 400ixl:
Will still need root for ARU though unless you plan to just use the basic Pioneer app and functions.

Android tv box microphone

Does anyone know of an android tv box or mini pc i can use that will work with a microphone. I would really like to use voice search for navigation.
[Android General] ikerg:
You can add a supercheap usb soundcard and plug any mic there

[Android General] sjorge3442:
So I finally made the jump to wireless on my Nexus 6 using a new (round) Chromecast. I can't seem to get the appradio2 to connect through everything properly. The android guy turns green maybe 3 out of 10 attempts. Then when I get into ARUnchained when it feels like working, the can't get through the touch input wizard. Everytime I touch the screen, it says "failed, try again" or something like that. Still getting an awful buzz when I hit the android button (I think it has to do with the wiring for the USB adaptor), but that's probably not relevant.

Anyone got any pointers? I've tried .14 and .16 with no luck with either.
[Android General] ikerg:
Try the reloaded version. It comes with specific wireless casting capabilities.... But you will have to pay.

Yeah after reading the other thread, I'm about to jump to the pay version. Just gotta get some more cashola in the Google play account.

someone knows if LG G4 works well with mirrorlink?

Aru , rooted 4.4.3 g3 and Miracsst working fine fwiw
[Android General] docquinton:
So your G3 plays nice while using Miracast and Bluetooth at the same time?
[Android General] 400ixl:
That is a combination which is known to work fine.
[Android General] docquinton:
Not on the G3 it doesn't. Every time I enabled the Bluetooth to use ARUR after enabling Miracast, connection would start to lag depending on how much I touched the screen. However when using without the Bluetooth connection is perfect.

The G3 even pops up a toast message when trying to use Bluetooth and WiFi-Direct together, saying connection would not be optimal. I used a screenbeam mini 2 for Miracast.
[Android General] 400ixl:
It is working for others, so must be something in your setup. What Rom are you using? Bluetooth should be on first with the connection made to the appradio. Then once the connection is established is miracast engaged through the screencasting.
[Android General] AgentJz:
Yes. I even have DashCommand connected to a obd2 bluetooth dongle.

Stock Verizon 443 rooted with sb2 mini.
[Android General] docquinton:
No ROM, stock rooted G3 on AT&T. Using AppRadio 3. Was using screenbeam mini 2 but returned when it didn't work. Tried 2 different sb2 with same result. I'm skeptical that connection order would make that much of a difference.

So your g3 doesn't complain at all when using Miracast and Bluetooth?! No message?

Please let me know how to fix the problem with touch to HU screen doesnot work. All the apps on the phone ( Samsung Note 2) were appear on the HU Screen ( Pioneer AVH - X8650BT) but I can not touch to screen to perform anything.
[Android General] 400ixl:
You need to give more information. Have you rooted, added the app to SuperSU etc?
[Android General] phungthuong:
Luckily, after I installed appradio reloaded and got the same problem with HU screen, I reinstalled appradio unchained and try to connected with bluetooth first and then MHL cable to the phone, the screen worked !
[Android General] Blackfox123:
Has anyone got the Tronsmart MK808B Plus android stick running kit Kat working on the app radio 3? It came rooted out of the box
[Android General] phungthuong:
Please give me an advise how to make the phone screen off when using appradio unchained. During this connection, my phone screen always on :(
[Android General] 400ixl:
This depends on the device. ARUR has the option within settings. There are 3rd party apps like secondscreen to do it, or options like tasked. Some phones with amoled screens can only be dimmed to their lowest setting, not switched off.

Hi, works fine on my note 3 v5.01 darklord 2.2 rom, but my spotify sound output to my avh 8750 is in slow tempo, any suggestion? TIA
[Android General] k.bajlekov:
Please let me know how to fix the problem with touch to HU screen doesnot work. I cannot connect the phone (Samsung Galaxy S5) to the HU (Appradio 2 Pioneer SPH-DA100), via bluetooth. When I try to, it goes without problems to 75% and then the connection fails. I tried that with AU and with the official app, too. It doesn't connect. When I uninstall the app (no matter which) it connects to 100% and says "succeded". I use CyanogenMod 12.1 (if that helps).

Thanks in advance.
[Android General] nonyhaha:
Hi,

Please try to go to bluetooth settings on the phone, and uncheck contact sharing to pioneer headunit. I had this problem in the beginning and this solved it.
[Android General] k.bajlekov:
That kinda helped, Thanks. I was able to connect the phone via bluetooth and in notification panel on the phone "Appradio Connected" is shown. When I connect the phone to the MHL adapter, everything appears in the HU, but the touch isn't working. And what is strange to me, "the hand with red X" doesn't appear in upper right corner. Just no touch. And the two buttons on the HU, that are used for Appradio mode doesn't work, too.

Any suggestions??? :)
[Android General] nonyhaha:
You have to be rooted.

Install terminal emulator.

Open it and first run command "su".

Now type setenforce 0.

And check it by command getenforce. It should now be in permissive mode. You have to do this after each reboot. It will work now.
[Android General] stewbuntu:
Which one did you get? This is the one I got and still get a second warning.

anyone know of an app similar to screen standby that doesnt kill gps? if not can anyone create one :)
[Android General] ibe2fly:
landscape mode cutting off part of screen

i too have an s4 but with appradio 2 (sph-da100) and when it switches to landscape ... the screen is cut off, I have to open a different launcher to use the full screen again (using Apex since I used that with previous android devices) ... im running hyperdrive rom safestrapped ... i confirmed behavior on 9.1 as well as 10 ... so i don't think its rom specific perhaps aru needs to call some resize method on the launcher once it detects its in landscape mode?
[Android General] Pete99:
I have the same Issue on my Galaxys S4 since the Firmware XXUDMGG. The problem is that Samsung changed the Bootloader. In the new images with (XXUDMGG-XXUEMJ3 4.2.2 and XXUEMJ5 Android 4.3) also not downgrade can be made back to XXUBMGA.

The App Arliberator has the same Problem. In the Diagnostic of Arliberator i get the two Error "Virtual Device Access and Virtual Device Create"

I hope it may soon be resolved.
[Android General] rs2k:
Do we have a list of how well certain phones work with this? I'm thinking of replacing my nexus 4 with a galaxy s4, but I want to make sure the s4 can charge while connected to the radio and doesn't suffer annoying problems.
[Android General] nfaust01:
Don't do it. Get the nexus 5 in a about a week. I know some s4 users are having issues with touch working properly.
[Android General] ShurikX RUS:
All - I give up! Or i surrender (I don't know how to properly)

I'm unlocked the bootloader, I'm got a root with two different ways, I'm installed three different custom ROM (including clear AOPS for SONY ARC S).

The result - is out! ZERO!!!
[Android General] smalltownbird:
I saw the post about setting up Tasker to automatically connect to my allshare cast dongle but I cannot get it to work. Does it work on android 4.3? Maybe a little more detail on it? I don't always connect my phone on my morning commute because it is a pain to pull it out of my pocket and connect...
[Android General] evillela2001:
I believe I got the same one.
[Android General] bodieism:
If I were you I would order this adapter directly from Samsung along with a HDMI cable from a reputable source instead of having to fiddle around with the 5 to 11 pin adapter tips and the Pioneer MHL cable. I ran into nothing but trouble with anything other than the genuine adapter.

They actually still get two warning messages. One at boot up and one when going into app mode. I'm pretty sure that's the way all US models are. I'm not yet aware of any methods for making them not appear.

I have a S4 and it works good with the AR3, but I still wouldn't recommend it unless you have lots of patience and like tinkering around with custom software and looking for workarounds for issues that don't apply to other phones. In order for the S4 to charge while connected to the radio you would need a custom kernel. Most kernels that I have seen for the S4 only raise the fast charging current to 900 mA and at that level you need screen standby running in order to get a positive charge. Unfortunately, SS doesn't play nice with the S4. That's the kind of thing you get to look forward to with the S4.
[Android General] mikek753:
Thanks.

That's why I ordered from Samsung, but got none working GPS as result.

When I asked Samsung tech about "will newer white MHL work with GPS?" - answer was "no, it is for TV only and it'll kill GPS as well" ... :confused:

is it confirmed that white MHL 2.0 works without cut phone GPS signal on S3?

I'm not on AR3, so I don't have AR GPS antenna, just phone GPS built in.
[Android General] Area51©:
Too bad. I don't think you are using android 2.3.x but nobody got that to work.
[Android General] ShurikX RUS:
You offer to install Android 2.3.x?

Interesting idea. I planned to leave my smartphone in the car forever.

For me, the android version does not matter.

I will try today to install 2.3.x.
[Android General] Area51©:
No, I meant to say 2.3.x will not work.

So if you tried 2.3.x I am not surprised that it does not work.
[Android General] ShurikX RUS:
Oh, sorry!

My English skills let me down ....

I use Android 4.0.4
[Android General] Area51©:
Did you also install SuperSU and give ARU root rights?

Another thing you can try:

Install an app called Android Terminal and give it root rights with SuperSU.

Open a command line shell by starting Android Terminal app.

Type: su

and press enter key

Type: ls -l /dev/uinput

and press enter key

Then it should show something like:

crw-rw-rw- system bluetooth 10, 223 2013-10-17 07:53 uinput

If it doesn't show that but this:

/dev/uinput: No such file or directory

then it will never work.
[Android General] bodieism:
Like I said earlier, the Samsung tech you spoke with was an idiot... I have used 3 different Samsung phones and none of them had an issue with receiving a GPS signal while connected to MHL. What you ordered from Samsung was an old adapter that was not specifically made for the S3. The only adapter I recommend is the one I linked to earlier (ordered directly from them) because people run into so many issues with anything other than that. If you order that adapter and GPS still goes out while connected to it then I'd say it's a safe bet that something in your phone is defective or broke. Whether that be your ROM, water damage, poor manufacturing, dropping it one too times, etc.

LOL, I just drove a couple miles down the road the other day with a S3 connected to the white MHL 2.0 cable in my car while it gave me turn by turn directions. I used Google Maps to provide the directions so the GPS signal was definitely coming from the S3 (ARU doesn't support mock locations yet). I don't think you can get a better confirmation than that...

If you want Samsung to confirm it for you, well, good luck with that :)

New User

Hi,

I've been using ARL for 4 months and installed arunchained0.13 yesterday to compare. ARU works better in some aspects, but unfortunately I can't use it due to a problem with Waze and GPS.

This is my setup:

- Pioneer Avic-F50BT (european version for AVIC-Z150BH)

- Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 (STOCK ROOTED 4.1.2 )

- Original Samsung MHL adapter

ARU pros compared to ARL:

- In ARL the first touch after connect, takes 20 seconds more or less to respond

- In ARL, when you are in AppRadio Mode and switch to any AV Mode and interact in it (skip song in ipod, play dvd, etc..), if you go back to appradio mode, touch control is lost and you need to disconnect and conect again bluetooh. In ARU the reconnect process starts automatically

ARU contra compared to ARL:

- Waze doesn't get GPS signal (it happens the same with pioneer AppRadio). I don't known if it has something to do with the pioneer sdk that waze implements, because gps works with Navigation and other gps app's that i've tried.

I'm talking about Phone GPS with mock locations disabled (I'd love to use HU built in gps to get signal even in tunnels but pioneer decided that if you have a built in gps you don't need gps Apps).

I usually use Waze and Google Play Music in multi-window mode (as shown in this link: appradioforums.com/Thread-BMW-E87-Pioneer-Avic-F50BT-ARL-Raspberry-Pi), so I'm afraid that I'll have to go back to ARL.
[Android General] Area51©:
I don't know why in your case Waze doesn't work. Some other users have reported it working with ARU. It should still work because it was not changed from the original app. As the original app and Waze together don't work either that must be due to some Pioneer problem.

Does your HU have a built in GPS receiver? If so it should work like this: HU GPS data is sent to Pioneer AppRadio app or ARU. Waze gets GPS data from AppRadio app or ARU through Pioneer SDK. I am 100% sure about this as I extracted the Pioneer SDK from Waze (there's no other way to get it without having an app first that Pioneer wants to review).

I am back to work on supporting the HU built in gps to inject GPS data on system level using mock locations. I already implemented a test app that is able to get the gps info from ARU using the Pioneer sdk. Next step is to inject it using mock locations.
[Android General] ForLeeWase:
There are too many variants (differents HU, roms, android versions, phone branchs, mhl adapters, etc.) and in consecuence, there are too many different behaviours. I understand how difficult must be for developers this kind of developments.

My HU has a built in gps system that allows navigate even in tunnels. But it seems that pioneer, at a firmware level, avoid sending gps location info to the app mode. I choosed this HU because I assumed that I could use Waze in tunnels, it was a big disapointment discovering it doesn't (the same disapointment as discovering that the appradio mode signal is not sent to the rear monitors when the HU has dual zone)

If I can help you testing with that test app just to see if the HU is sending any gps info, just let me know. Although I understand that my HU is a bit different for the target of your development.
[Android General] k.bajlekov:
It's not that. I am rooted and using CM 12.1. I use SELinuxModeChanger ( I think it is the same).

Does any of you used the app with Nexus 5X? I'm trying to create the network for Chromecast with a phone, than turning on the hotspot on the Nexus but I'm unable to share the screen because when hotspot is operating WiFi casting can't work at the same time. There used to be a version of a Chromecast app that somehow bypassed this.

Can any of you help me with this?

[Android General] 400ixl:
Looks like the V10 uses slimport, so you need one of those adapters connected to HDMI on the head unit. Then you need root and if using the free version SELinux in permissive mode. The ARU app should then work once paired and calibrated.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

Give a full description of your setup connection wise and what you have done on the phone so far.

It would be nice to get delay on dimming the screen... Because sometimes when it doesn't connect you need to un-dim connect cast screen and dim back... So if I can setup to do that in 30 sec I have time to do that before it dim
[Android General] 400ixl:
What head unit have you got as ARU does not support mirrorlink.

---------- Post added at 08:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------

That looks like a mirrorlink only hi as well. No hdmi in which means ARU will not work with it. You have the wrong hu.
[Android General] sandog12:
I have a pioneer AVIC Z150BH
[Android General] 400ixl:
That is an HDMI HU I believe so should work with ARU. You need a slimport to HDMI adapter. Read the start of the thread to understand the rest.

If you buy the full version you do not need to worry about SELinux. You do for the free version.
[Android General] Cmora24:
So i need a new radio or a new cable? :/
[Android General] sandog12:
So u think all I need is the full ver of app radio unchained and a MHL cable from phone to hdmi of my head unit
[Android General] 400ixl:
Your radio does not work with ARU, it needs to be an HDMI input version with AppMode for Android.

---------- Post added at 03:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

The LG V10 used Slimport not MHL, so you need the correct cable.
[Android General] sandog12:
Do u know if I should get just the video only or will the the one with the charging port will work?
[Android General] 400ixl:
Instead of having to drag every little bit of information maybe help us to help you. Try a link to which ones you are talking about. You ideally need a slimport you can put power through to charge your phone whilst in use.

[Android General] Xenosis:
Not sure if this is the right place but I would like to humbly request that there be a way to disable bluetooth phone communication stuff as I opted not to install the HU's extra ridiculous wired microphone in place of hoping to use my phones very good built in microphone.

As of now, it's impossible for me to make any phone calls without altogether turning off bluetooth.
[Android General] 400ixl:
That is not something this app can control.

I do the same and have had no complaints about the quality of the mic.

[MENTION=324146]400ixl[/MENTION], from a brief scan of this forum you seem to know a thing or two!

I purchased the AppRadio 3 about two years ago just for the purpose of using ARUR with my Nexus 5 and did so using a SlimPort adapter. It worked flawlessly. I then upgraded to a Nexus 6 and, since it didn't support SlimPort, I ordered a Chromecast and connected just fine using the cast screen/hotspot method between my N6 and the chromecast. Again, this worked flawlessly for quite sometime - until Chromecast received an update several months ago where it would not function without a Wifi connection. My setup requiring a hotspot connection was now redundant and I didn't think it could be resolved. Since then, I have removed the Chromecast from my car and have been using it as it was meant - in my TV.

I missed having my phone's screen, audio, apps, phonecalls etc. mirrored and sent through my AppRadio, but was too lazy to search for another solution in the last couple of months. Just today, I decided to revisit this thread in an attempt to find a new solution to regain the functionality of my rooted Nexus 6, AppRadio 3 and ARUR working together. So, I'm asking for a recommended solution on how I can enjoy this setup again. I am enjoying having my Chromecast connected to my TV, so I'll happily buy another Chromecast or else a Miracast device to use with my AppRadio depending on which is more suitable. What would you recommend to me as my best setup? Thank you for any help in advance!
[Android General] Xenosis:
Thought it could be managed similarly to the way GPS is managed. Can currently disable use the HU's GPS injection (also equally ridiculous redundant extra cable). If not for that (thanks so much), I'd have no way to use maps since this thing forces the use of it's own hardware over the phone. IIRC ARLiberator didn't have this capability.

What would need to be done would be to actually use the phones microphone instead of the HU's microphone (bluetooth stream audio source) which isn't even plugged it. Shame it isn't smart enough to detect that.

The workaround (not really) that allows me to use the phones mic is to disable the bluetooth permission for the AppRadio HU after it's connected. Then it'll just use my phone instead while still passing control signals. Any way that could be automated?

Are there are supported models that don't have this issue?

---------- Post added at 12:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------

You need to install XPosed framework and install the Fake Wifi module. I have the same setup with the newer 2015 chromecast and it works amazingly well adding the bonus option to actually app-cast to the HU as well. That or you can keep a backup .apk of the last chromecast version that didn't F up hotspot usage. Miracast largely wasn't adopted and support has diminished.
