I have no clue. Are you saying the AR2 doesn't show the screen that is shown on your phone?

Basically Reloaded doesn't do anything to the screen. It relies on Android/MHL adapter and HU to deliver the correct video, same as the Pioneer app does.

It's quite complicated. The head unit can supply 1A. To fully charge I think you need about 1.5A. However the MHL adapter also can limit the current it can pass through. When you have it connected and you go to Settings->Battery does it show USB or AC? When it shows USB the maximum it can charge is 0.5A.

If it's possible for you to change the kernel it may be be possible to find one that suppports 'fast charge', basically that means it will loads as if AC is connected even when USB is detected. It may also help to get a MHL 3.0 adapter as these are supposed to be able to supply more power. I don't know if this is really true as I don't have a Samsung phone.

It's highly unlikely that Reloaded causes this. I have no other reports that this happens. Of course Reloaded can crash (it happens a lot when I am developing) however it does not cause the complete phone to crash.

What you can try it to install an app called Catlog and enable logging to a file. Hopefully when the phone crashes it will log something useful as crashing may prevent this.

I have installed arur and I use a chromecast. Seems to works (car under the house so can't test gps)

It's it possible to auto cast on chromecast direct from arur?

By the way, that for the work!!

You have to disable Hands Free Bluetooth profile from the stick's side. Also I switched of automatic Bluetooth connection on HU. In automatic mode HU had a tendency connect to my phone at the first, not to the stick, consequently HU can't establish AppRadio connection with the stick. In the result the stick connects to HU by themselves (sometimes. sometimes manually from HU) and after that I connect phone (from phone) to HU manually. Not a very convenient. :(

As well I added backup battery for powering the stick, because every engine start/stop cause the stick to reboot. It takes almost 2 minutes or more reconnect to the HU.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Use Tasker on your phone to disable its bluetooth for a certain amount of time on detection of the AppRadio bluetooth signal. You could then leave it all on automatic.

Do you plan to support the AppRadio 4?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Have you even read this thread?

The developer has even stated he has just received his AppRadio 4 to test the development work he has already done on it. It works today but required you to use the phone GPS rather than the HU one.

On Screen Warning

Is it possible to send injection events to the radio? For instance: to press the OK button on the warning that appears when first switched to hdmi/app mode? Its not a huge deal but it can really get annoying on the rare instance where my automation botches and i need to manually start the tasker action a couple times.

Pioneer AVH-X8600BT + HTC One X+

Hi,

I'm using ARUR for about 2 weeks now and would like to give some feedback about my setup, the problems I had and the apps I'm using in combination with ARUR to get around these issues.

My setup

Smartphone: HTC One X+

ROM: Android Revolution HD 8 (Android 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean) with HTC Sense 5)

HU: Pioneer AVH-X8600BT

HDMI/MHL adapter: Original Pioneer CD-AH200

I had two problems

The "Dim screen"-option of ARUR doesn't work properly on my phone. The brightness is just reduced a bit, but way too little. This problem is listed as a known issue, but can/will this be fixed in the future?

HTC Sense 5 doesn't support landscape mode for home screens. I googled a lot and it seems that it's really not possible to make landscape mode working for home screens with Sense 5 and lower. But I like Sense, so I don't wanted to switch to another launcher.

I tried different apps in combination to solve these problems. And the following works best for me:

I'm using ARUR with the following settings

The only option that I have activated is the "Start/stop on HDMI connection/disconnection"-checkbox - this works best for me.

I don't use the "Toggle Bluetooth on start"-option, because it made some troube - I don't know why. But even without this option activated the connection to the HU is established fast and smooth.

I don't use the "Rotation locker"-option, because HTC Sense doesn't support landscape for home screens. And since all apps I used so far were automatically executed in landscape mode (maybe a HTC Sense + MHL feature?), I don't see why to activate this option.

I don't use the "Dim screen"-option, because - as already mentioned - it doesn't work well on my phone.

Auto Dashdroid (com.nezdroid.cardashdroid): I'm using this app to get around the "HTC Sense landscape"-issue. This app supports landscape mode and provides a good looking and customizable interface to easily access your most important apps while driving.

Screen Standy (com.nkahoang.screenstandby): I'm using this app to get around the not properly working "Dim screen"-option. This app turns off the screen without putting the phone to sleep. I configured the app to start automatically on MHL connection (via Settings -> "HDMI Detection" -> "Auto HDMI/MHL Detection"). In addition it automatically starts "Auto Dashdroid" on HDMI connection (via Settings -> "HDMI Detection" -> "Run app on HDMI connect").

With these apps and settings in place, I only need to put the MHL plug into my phone and everything happens automagically: the connection of ARUR to the HU, the screen is "turned off" and the car dash app starts - and all this without Tasker :)

That's it!

Maybe this information helps someone who has similar issues.

Feedback appreciated!

Regards,

z0nd0r

I didnt read the entire thread. Anywho, i decided to return my AVH-x3700BHS because the bluetooth is horrible, disconnects after i open the door and stand outside the car, and the SQ isnt good. Im moving back to the Kenwood DDX771HD which uses the hdmi and usb to control any android device from the main screen true mirroring. I hope this app dev keeps moving forward and enjoys his AR4.

AVH-4000NEX & Note 3/4 Issues

Greetings!

I am working ARUR and my new 4000NEX on my workbench prior to putting it in the car so I can work out all the kinks. The biggest issue I am having is with screen size. I can't seem to get the mirroring of the Note 3 or Note 4 to completely fill the screen. See attached. I have tried using the adjustment tools in the radio to resize it, but it doesn't seem to allow me to "save" my changes. The only way I can seem to get the screen of the phone to fill the entire screen of the radio is when it reverts to "hdmi" mode, but then the touches on the screen of the radio do not equate to the touchscreen of the phone.

Anyone have any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks!

-Rob
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dus1988:
In the appradio image adjust settings make the yellow lines touch the edges of what appears to be your smartphone screen. It looks squished right now, but if you adjust that the appradio will take whatever is inside of the yellow lines and scale it to full screen, in this case making it proportionally correct. Then just run a calibration in ARUR. Hope this helps.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] robroy90:
Thanks, and if you look closely at what I posted, I do have the lines adjusted all the way out. But, when I do that, I can't seem to find a way to make my adjustments "stick". It is as if I hadn't adjusted it each time I go back into it. What am I missing?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] naboleo:
I have a note 3 also and image is streched correctly. Once you got the "yellow lines" process done, you can change the screen mode using the "mode" button. It will roll for 2 or 3 different zooms, just select the prefered one.

Hello

When I lunch arur, I'm in landscape but when I come back to home landscape don't stay? When I leave arur (home button or back one) landscape lock and disable lock don't work anymore? What can I do?

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dus1988:
As far as having the adjustments stick? I have no idea. As for the lines you should keep your left and right ones all the way out but bring the top one down to the top of the notification bar and and bring the bottom one up to where the settings seem to get cut off.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Have you ticked the rotation locker option in the ARUR application options?

Could also be that your launcher does not support landscape for the home screen. Try an alternative like Apex or Nova launcher.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n1ck0:
Yes, rotation locker is ticked and my luncher is Nova luncher

AR4 GPS working

Tonight I got a first version of the AR4 GPS working. I still have to clean up the code and make sure I keep the old stuff working. Unfortunately you have to be patient as next week won't have time to work on it. Anyway, my estimate is that it will be available for testing in about 2 weeks.

I'm on my third mhl adapter. Tried two Samsungs and now a "rankie" cable off Amazon. In every case, the thing will work for about 15 minutes and then the video and audio starts cutting out. The picture starts with the snow effect, then black bars start flashing, and occasionally I'll get stuck on "waiting for hdmi signal". Running a rooted Verizon galaxy s5 (with ricks rom) on an avic-8000nex with firmware 1.08. Am I missing something here?

Is your inner phone connector ok then ? Few years ago I had a defective one (Galaxy note n7000), bought a replacment for a few bucks (ebay), and never had problem anymore
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Have you checked the HDMI cable as they can fail in exactly the same way.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spadz93:
You mean to solder on? Or is it just a connector that can snap onto the logic board?

Tried various cables, problem remained
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] naboleo:
Checking the solder is quite difficult as they are too small

Looks like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...442?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c4bd2ebea

Hmm, well my speaker is blown out. I guess this is just another reason to tear the phone down.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spyxone:
Probably this is wrong place for this, but I am new AppRadio user, and I am not satisfied with image quality after connecting phone to unit. Phone has 1920x1080 but app radio is something about 800px. Do you using app like SecondScreen or other? What is your advice to get max image quality when mirroring phone to AppRadio?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
The head unit isn't a 1080p display so you get what you get. It is 800*480 if I remember correctly.

Personally I have no issue with it as it all gets rescaled perfectly well. So may be the quality of the re-scaling from the phone you are using.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Kooljazz:
Does anyone have a problem with the app when you turn the car radio speakers up it crashes ? Everytime I turn the speaker volume up to 14 the app restarts and shut down.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n1ck0:
Another question, I'm thinking of buying an android stick instead of my phone, but what about the shutting down of the stick? Is it not a problem to do a hard stop every time the car engine is stopped?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Wutsittou:
Is there a compatibility list with headunit, adapter, and phone combinations? The OP description is still somewhat vague and implies more possibilities.

I have an HTC One M8 running ViperOne on Lollipop. I've done searches around here and the outer nets. I have queried people about their setups with this phone (no replies yet). I have an idea of what I should get but I just want to be confident that it will work before dumping $400+ before its said and done. I am thinking SPH-DA210, CD AH200 or Netgear PTV3000 (saw one success with this, might be useful for other things incase of failure.).

If indeed it fails, is the radio really worth the price? It seems like this HU and its counterparts are getting average reviews with a bad review distribution.

Thanks for any help.

Hello,

I'm testing ARUR with SPH-DA120 and Ugoos U007B stick Android 4.4. ARUR is installed as system application. It starts on boot and connects to HU ok but does not receive touch events correct. When I calibrate the touch screen, the first red point is detected correct others aren't. If I press on the red point, touch is not detected, if I press anywhere outside red point, touch is detected and ARUR shows next calibration point. In result no touch events in Android.

When I tested ARU for sticks (arunchained0.15stick.apk), touch events transferred properly.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
That is why I said to use Root Browser rather than ES File Explorer or Titanium. You select what looks like the APK file and move it, then set the permissions. Job done nice and simply.

It does in fact move the whole folder so all of the files get moved in one clean action.

So yes I'm sure that was all that I had to do. Otherwise it wouldn't have worked ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
You need to enable 'Invert XY-coordinates' in the options and then reconnect to activate it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NK2014:
Thanks, that helps.

New issues:

1. I don't get GPS locations. ARUR's GPS menu shows zeroes. Mock location enabled globally. I tried "Do not switch Mock ..." options off and on, reconnected, nothing changes.

2. Sensitivity of touches on bottom edge of the screen is very low. Bottom edge means the area bellow bottom calibration points.

3. Stability of reconnects of AppRadio after reboots and cold starts is low compared to arunchained0.15stick.apk, especially when Hands Free Bluetooth profile is disabled on the stick. "Workaround for wrong channel ..." option was tested with no result.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] stargate125645:
The library file was in a separate folder, so that doesn't actually answer the question. It must have been an alpha thing. You can move folders with ES, too. The permissions thing also should be updated in your post still if you want it to function as an FAQ, I think.

On my mk809iii sometimes Bluetooth turns off after reboot.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Switched off bluetooth and started the app on mine and it asked to switch on bluetooth. So it does do it, but may be an issue for you I guess as the stick doesn't have a screen to see and approve the request.

However, haven't tried the on HDMI connect which would also do what you need as I'm not near the car at the moment.

Tasker can also be used to switch it on on boot of the stick.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] smoki3:
Yes but on an Android stick i cant touch the display without Bluetooth connection.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
You appear to be the only one with this issue, there are lots of stick users and if this was an issue there would be lots of noise. There isn't, which suggests its a setting in the ROM you are using.

As I said, Tasker can be used to fix the issue if you can't find a way to do it in the ROM itself.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] RRSpikes:
See page 34 of the 8650 owners manual to adjust the screen. Samsung phones require an alternative launcher (Apex, Nova, Google Now, etc) to properly display in landscape.

Press the home button twice to remove/display the on screen menu. This takes a bit of practice but you'll get the hang of it quickly.

HTC ONE M7 - w Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX - Android Revolution HD 71.1 - HU Touch Help

HTC ONE M7 - w Pioneer AVIC-8000NEX - Android Revolution HD 71.1 - HU Touch Help PLEASE

Currently running: Android Revolution HD 71.1 - 4.4.2 - Sense 6.0 - 3.4.10-g3c4bd25 -

I paid for this a couple of months ago, but I haven't been able to make the Head Unit (inject? touch?). I am able to receive audio and video via HDMI on the head unit and I can control the screen from my phone, but the main reason I picked this up was so I can control my phone via the head unit (Pioneer AVIC-8000Nex).

It's probably time to update my ROM, but before I jump to Lollipop, I want to make sure I am headed in the right direction...

Should I change the kernel? It's at 3.4.10-g3c4bd25 right now and has been working great, but I have a feeling I need to update something (ROM? Kernel? Stay on Kit Kat? Move to Lollipop?)

I see where I can update to: Android Revolution HD 91.0 • High Quality & Performance • 7.19.401.2 • 5.0.2 ---- however, I want to make sure I am headed in the right direction before updating. Should I stay on Kit Kat for XPOSED?

Do I need to update my kernel on the M7? If so....which one is the best for working with the 8000-Nex Head Unit?

ElementalX |OC|UV|GPU OC|S2W|L2W|DT2W|L2M|THERMAL|BLN ??

Bulletproof | S2W | L2M | DT2W | BLN ??

....or something else?

I really just want my the head unit to recognize when I touch the screen, but I'm definitely looking for the best scenario. Can you guys help point me in the right direction?

Thanks for any help!!

Oh.....I'm using the Pioneer CD-AH2000 kit with MHL and I was also wondering about the Asus Miracast Dongle? I actually have the stick as well and would probably prefer wireless, but has anyone had any luck using this or know if it's compatible?

Hi Area 51. I switched roms and made a backup of my apps. Ever since I restored my apps I'm receiving INVALID LICENCE. What folder do I have to delete to get my app back up and running? Market still recognises that I purchased the app.

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Did you use Titanium Backup? If so, just use that to remove the individual app and install it through the play store.

You could try clearing app and data cache in the settings\app menu.

Hi. yes I did use titanium. I have tried clearing data/cache and it still says invalid license.

I have uninstalled the app and reinstalled via playstore and I get the same error.

Is there a file/folder someone that I have to delete to sort this issue out?

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Have you got a full wifi or 3G signal when you activate the application. It is at that point that it tries to activate from the Play Store.

Also, when using Titanium, did you tell it to associate the original phone ID when asked?

Folder will depend on whether you made it a system app or not, but shouldn't matter as many people have restored it that way with no issues.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jUsT2eXy:
Both. But I have tried it on WiFi and still have the issue.

No, I did not get any sort of pop-up/message about 'original phone ID'.

It is a system app now.

Yes, I have a working prototype already. This week will integrate it with the existing code then need to do some testing. Should be ready in about a week.

You can also try to clear the data/cache from the Playstore app so it will be downloaded again. This helps sometimes.
