I'm not sure, but your situation may need 'Scenario #2' (+ uninstalling Xposed)

can anyone else conform me on this:

i have stock kernel , i used xposed for ui tweaks and boot animation etc apart from that all other things are stock only.

Section B: Flashing in a custom recovery

1) Download the OTA.zip and copy to your phone.

2) Boot into recovery.

3) Flash the OTA just like you would a ROM.

4) Reboot.

i am not sure that xpose modifications come in this condition or not
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carlosmg2:
yeah, you need to uninstall Xposed too (from within the app, not like uninstalling normal apps). Then you can reinstall and have all modules and config untouched.

The Alpine ICS-X7 HD.... Awesome stereo loaded with functions.... The HTC One M8, Awesome phone packed with potential! Both very new, VERY expensive, so what do we pay all this money for only to find out the potential is there, yet the function-ability is not...

So the Alpine ICS, like I said is an awesome head unit, the main thing that sold me on it was the ability to mirror your cell phone to the in dash display! Cool feature right...? Not when there is absolutely no sound. Not only does the sound not come from the speakers in the car, but being that it is plugged in through usb, and the phone assumes the audio should be sent out, you cant even get your sound from the phone speakers. I have tried this function using the Samsung Galaxy SIII, works beautifully. When I first acquired the head unit, I had a M7... Plug that phone in and, "Device not Supprted" message on the IDD.. With the M8, plug it in, and the phone recognizes the stereo! Stereo recognizes the phone! Mirrorlink activates on the phone along with the "Car" HTC app. Video is transmitted to the phone and looks quite nice, but no matter what I try, I cant get the sound to work, I have gotten it to kick on a couple times, but two seconds later it is shuts off. I have tried all different arrangements of USB/AUX that the stereo allows and still nothing. Is this a software problem with the M8? I am inclined to think so being that the Samsung device worked without hitch.

My question being this, Has ANYONE out there tried this exact combination of head unit and mobile device? If so would you please share your experience? It seems like all the potential is there yet there is just some minor fix that needs to be implemented. If there is a fix for this, would you also PLEASE share that. Thank you very much to the XDA community, for always being there when I am just about to take a framing hammer to anything electronic in a 3 block radius, for it all has a mind of its own and needs to be destroyed!!! (After not sleeping for three days and trying to troubleshoot non stop that is...)

Hello bda714. I have the M8 on Sprint. I got a Pioneer 4000NEX installed 2 days ago and it has the MirrorLink app. I'm experiencing the EXACT same thing you are experiencing. No sound from google nav, stock music app, or play all access. Sad as the mirrorlink was one of the main reasons i bought the unit. I stumbled across your question while doing a google search trying to find what the fix is. If I find a fix I'll reply back.

What options do you guys have under the paired named for your head unit on your phone under settings->bluetooth?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] coolguy71261:
I have a Pioneer avh-x5600bhs and the cd-ml100. I can get it to recognize mirrorlink. Upon making the connection it seems to fail. Pioneer support has no answers. The m8 isn't even listed as a compatible phone.

Hi all.

I have exactly the same experience with my HTC M8 and my Alpine ics-x8. I too have spent many hours researching, even telephoned HTC and Alpine.

HTC spent 10 premium rate minutes to tell me to send an email that was never answered. Alpine initially tried to help then said it is down to the app.

I can confirm that it is the app as when you get the voice command to work (Google now I think) the respond plays through the speakers.

My M8 is rooted and S-off (UK version).

This all annoys me immensely as it must be simple resolution.

Response from Alpine:

Hi Darren

It is not anything to do with us unfortunately its HTC, the mirror mode just mirrors the Phone nothing more. It is nothing to do with our software its the Phone manufacturer im afraid , contacting our engineering guys this was the exact feedback given. The capability of the unit is just to mirror the phone, its not a listed compatible phone and the only thing i can do it suggest you contact HTC to find out what the mirroring app on your phone is supposed to be used for and what it is compatible with. We do list in the maula and online the compatible phones, we have spoke to various manufacturers and get little or no answers with regards to what phones they will or wont make compatible.

I'll echo what the support tech just stated. Mirrorlink is akin to a terminal server setup, where the car kit is only displaying and doing what the phone is sending it. There's not a lot of logic on the kit side once the link is established.

The only hitch that I have seen is that some Mirrorlink setups require that the phone is connected with both USB and Bluetooth, and the audio goes over that USB link, where Bluetooth is used for Handsfree calls. Are you missing the USB link which it may need?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] NegenTien:
Apologies for posting in a thread that is a few weeks old.

I have this exact same setup (M8 and ICS-X7) with the exact same problems (No audio, whilst all the apps (Games, YouTube etc) work perfectly)

I spoke to HTC Support today, and they seem to believe its a compatibility problem. Now, after reading this thread and seeing it's been narrowed down to the app blocking the transmission over USB, i asked for a bit more investigation. They have passed my (Our?) problem onto their engineers and will be running tests on their test rigs.

They will be contacting me shortly (Hours, days or weeks, not sure) with the results. If they do come up with anything further, i'll be sure to let you know.

The techs name was Katrine if anyone else feels like speaking to them =)

Hopefully it will be sorted soon =)

Really good to hear - I appreciate that someone else is driving this.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] olluz:
I have tested the M8 with a reference MirrorLink client and also had no audio.

There is a problem with RTP on the HTC.

According to HTC MirrorLink is not (yet) officially supported, but it should be any day now.

Once they make the announcement and release an official update for it I am sure that audio will also work.

And yes the ICS-X7 is a great device.

M8: mirror link

Thank you everyone for the information, looks like I had given up to early on this post.... Whoops! I have learned a couple things since my original post, one that with an audio cable plugged in to the auxiliary jack via a1/8 in audio plug, the audio kicks on briefly, than right back off again.... Such a tease. And by briefly I mean half a second. The other thing I have gotten figured out is that through Google plus, hang outs app, the audio works perfectly!!! I am able to make video calls and view the person I am talking to and also hear them on the head unit (ICS-X7hd).... This leads me to believe that the post by the Alpine rep earlier in this thread may not be completely true. If the sound works for this one app and comes on briefly with the auxiliary and usb plugged in it seems like the phone is making all the correct connections but the head unit isn't knowing where to look for it. Regardless I know that at least in the case of the Alpine ICS-X7hd a firmware update is long over due.

Also when you plug in a galaxy SIII, the head unit brings up like three current nutrition options including navigation, the M8 only brings forward the mirror link...

Thanks again for all the reply's. Let's keep this thread alive in search for an answer, and if you haven't yet, get on the phone or email and rattle some cages, call alpine, call HTC, call Sony... call Obama! Someone needs to fix this, it's not right to spend over a thousand dollars in devices that don't function the way they are advertised to!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] AndrewAmazed:
Just saying but you definitely should have realized that the supported devices for mirrorlink are Nokia phones, Sony phones, Samsung S3 and the Note 2. It was only 'advertised' to function with these.

but anyways, I'm sure it'll come with the next few updates on HTC's part.

On the other hand, I believe there have been people who have reported mirrorlink working for them on the M8. So I'm not too sure how come you're not able to... My guess is that the ICS-X7HD doesn't quite support HTC yet?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
Re: thanks for your two cents but....

Your right, The ICSX7-hd does not support HTC, however, nor does it support Nokia, Sony or Samsung... It only supports Mirrorlink.... "Just saying" And for one, when I bought it, there was no reports yet on functionality with HTC phones, only articles and advertisements stating that it worked with Samsung's Drivelink app, if your phone is compatible with the Drivelink app... At that time, the M7(which was what I had previously), and I believe every other smart phone, could run the drivelink app without a problem, it wasn't until the recent update that it started crashing on any device not running "TM server". For two, the M8 wasn't even announced yet, not even close... So mister "just saying", in all your glorious realizing of helpful information.... You must have skimmed over a couple of things. ;)

But since you are posting you are obviously trying to be helpful, right? So how about throwing up the links to those reports you know about. Go ahead and put all of them, since you know of people, as in plural, that are reporting...or were you strictly believing, and not knowing...? :confused: Guess I should have realized that too huh?

So. I don't have a apline but I do have a ton of geek.

Can you grab a logcat when you connect your devices together and I am willing to browse the logs to see what/why it is failing. If your rooted on the phone do the following

Grab a terminal emulator from the l

Playstore. Open it type su allow permission on the prompt.

Then type

logcat > /sdcard/alpinefail.txt

This will start the logging press home softkey and connect the phone to head unit and try to do whatever it is mirrorlink or whatever it's called. Once u have it connected and still no audio close out of any apps disconnect from the head unit and open terminal back up. And press the volume up and c this will terminate the logging and save the file on your device and it will be labeled aplinefail.txt send it to me and I'm see if there is anything noticeable to help u out.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
LOGCAT Files!! GoodLUCK!!

Attached are the logcats for about three minutes of being plugged in to mirrorlink. USB connection set to mirrorlink. started logcat. Attached device to head unit. Opened mirrorlink on headunit. Carmode starts automatically. Went to music app and start playing song. exit Mirrorlink app on headunit switching to bluetooth. Played music through just bluetooth no mirrorlink(still no audio)... Back to mirrorlink app on head unit. Play song again same result.

This is interesting as I have never tried to use strictly bluetooth mode on the headunit while the phone is plugged in through usb to it. Because bluetooth works when it is not p;lugged in leads me to believe that the headunit is looking for the audio to come out of bluetooth and the phone is sending it through the usb....

Anyway good luck and godspeed brave adventurer...
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jskup:
My experience with the Samsung apps running on other devices was that the video was horrible on all devices other than the one you specifically grabbed the app for. So the screen size is baked right into the APK in question. Made for working with it problematic. Do you know which phone's Drivelink app you are trying to get to work on your M8?

The main piece that Mirrorlink used Bluetooth for the last time I checked on it was call audio. I know your tests have been focusing on audio streaming, but it would be useful to know if you can place and receive phone calls and that side of the equation is working.

"Played music through just bluetooth no mirrorlink(still no audio)" - This part is certainly concerning. Is the Mirrorlink app or any other music app still running and keeping control of the audio stream?

---------- Post added at 03:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:08 AM ----------

I see errors in USB land all over the third logcat that you linked. Considering we have the empirical evidence that this is where we have the lack of audio it isn't completely surprising, but you can see both before the Mirrorlink connection is setup and even during the setup process, your system is firing off the likes of this:

E/UsbDebuggingManager( 930): Communication error:

E/UsbDebuggingManager( 930): java.io.IOException: No such file or directory

E/UsbDebuggingManager( 930):	at android.net.LocalSocketImpl.connectLocal(Native Method)

I don't expect to see a repeated IOException like this in a log.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
Ok, we have a little confusion here.... So like you said I am using an M8... that part we got straight, but I am not using a samsung app at all. In the past I have tried with an M7 to flash the TMServer files and install the Drivelink.apk that was available from one of the forums, but could never get it to work....

So now... the M8 comes with a system app called CarMode from HTC. When you plug the M8 into the ICSX7 it automatically puts the phone into landscape mode and launches the CarMode app. Also there is a option under Settings>(Wireless & Networks Section) ...More>Mobile Network Sharing>USB Network Setting>MirrorLink Connection. With the description "Connect phone to head unit via MirrorLink"...

I am pretty sure that the audio when using the phone dialer built into the app does not work either... The only thing it seemed to work on was Google Hangouts Video call... Im pretty sure it was sound from car speakers but now starting to second guess myself on weather I heard it from the phone or the car... but either way it worked for sure there.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jskup:
Gotcha. When you started talking about Samsung's Drivelink app in the earlier post, that's what I thought you were using. My misunderstanding.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] runandhide05:
from what i am seeing and researched the htc car mode app is whats killing the audio, and you know this because you got your audio to work for a moment when using the google now, and it was not a trick, or mishap, and no you were not imaging it. so that being said it appears the car mode is what starts the mirrorlink connect, so without the car mode launching the mirrorlink connection will not be established, however with the HTC car mode not sending audio via mirrorlink we have your current problem.

here is my idea, mirrorlink is a well establish non proprietary means of communication, so whats to stop an aftermarket, or third party app that supports mirrorlink comunications from working on the M8 so here is my idea, and ive installed it on my phone, so we atleast know it will install, launch it, go through the steps and connect it to the stereo, and lets see if it works.

[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
the link you posted is for the same samsung "drivelink" app that I have tried before. although it must be modified some how because it actually will launch and display the warning before it crashes. But it does crash. Do you think this mabe because the car mode app is trying to launch at the same time? remember that the car mode app launches automatically when plugged into the headunit. anyway I tried a few different things to get it to work and cant make it happen.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
test with Samsung app;

So I did some more playing around with the app that you posted a link to. I actually got the app to work in mirror mode, like I had told you before, when you connect a SIII Galaxy to the stereo about 3 or 4 diffrent apps appear on the stereo screen, one is called car mode, one is mirror mode, then navigation mode. (Those names might not be accurate but something like that) I think there may have been one more but it has been a long time. With my M8 connected, the only one that showed up was car mode. I believe the difference in mirrormode is that it is not considered "driving safe". I am assuming this because the way that it finally started working was when I "engaged the parking brake" (flipped the switch to bypass it). I did have to uninstall the HTC Car app also to get it to work, however when it rebooted the HTC Car app was back and the Drivelink app still worked. This time the Car app had a apk shortcut in the app tray and it did not before. Well, all this and still everything I did still never resulted in a working sound connection. Have you looked into the "tm server" apk? I believe it had something to do with the Drivellink app functioning properly. If you need any more info please let me know. Thank you for all your help.
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] jskup:
Well the problem with trying a third party MirrorLink app is that I don't believe one was ever made, because each vendor was putting their own special sauce into the application to make it work. That's why when getting Samsung DrinkLink and Nokia's Car Mode with Mirrorlink, you always went to the individual vendor's app store rather than Google Play in general. This may have changed more recently, but that's how it was in the days of the Galaxy S3 generation.

Device I used at that time was a Sony XAV-601BT

I haven't fooled with Sony's specific MirrorLink implementation yet. They were a little bit later to the party than Samsung and Nokia.

Do you have your car app updated then ?
[Verizon HTC One (M8)] bda714:
No, as I understand it, the update will be coming as an ota update via the service provider. So it is up to each provider individually to release their proprietary update and make it happen. I haven't found any word on any of them pushing a packet as of yet. When the first area gets it I would imagine that someone will post it though and we will be able to flash it ourselves just like any other ota, rather than waiting for it to make its way around the globe.
