It is possible to do that with an accessibility service. However you get dependencies on the text of the button which could be different for other languages. In short you want to avoid that as much as possible but if there's no other way it has to be done like that.

You can get the AR3 all cables, adaptor for mhl if needed(not sure if g2 needs adaptor for mhl/slimport) and depending on your skills, install it yourself for under 500. I know I did! And yes, by using 'mix' while in appradio mode, you can play the radio, CD! You will live it and this forum and area51 has a Google plus site that has great interaction. I recommend getting into the paid version of arur.

Hi, been searching for hours but were unable to find an answer... Got this nifty little program working on an AppRadio 4 via a Chromecast, but looks like I didn´t do right the screen image calibration (not the touch calibration) and the image is being displayed oversized... Does anyone know how to access this calibration screen again? Thank you!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Yes of course. When you are in APP mode go to Settings->System->Input/Output settings->AppRadio Video Adjustment. Then position the yellow lines around the part of the screen you want to see, press preview and then Ok.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] adfurgerson:
Something I just figured out today and thought I would share. On appradio 4 when you are mirroring phone display you can double tap the center button with the four squares to hide or bring up the sidebar on left of screen. Just double tap fast, it will only beep one time as if you only single tapped but it does work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mibuix0r:
Ehh, not sure how to do that?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] daniwazowski:
Thanks Area51! Everything is working perfect now... Great app this one! BTW I would like to know if the image quality I am getting is normal. Gradients doesnt display properly and text, even though its completely readable is not completely sharp. Is this due to Chromecast mirroring quality? Maybe my phone pixel density or resolution? (Im using an LG G3)... Will this improve if I connect the phone via slimport? Thanks!

Just purchased AR Unchained Reloaded, gotta say i'm really happy to be able to use my GS5 with my pioneer AVH-X8500BHS again. Good work guys! I do have an issue though.

The back button on my head unit only works when the E-brake is applied, is there a fix for this?

Also this is just a little annoyance, I use the Allshare Wifi dongle to connect wirelessly, the problem i run into is that the Autodim feature usually kicks on before i have a chance to tell my phone to connect to the Allshare dongle. At night it's not an issue, but during the day it's real tough to see where the switch is to activate the allshare connection. Is there a way to make screen mirroring pair automatically or something so that way I don't have to worry about activating the screen mirroring after the screen dimmer is turned all the way down? I like the auto dim feature and i'd like to be able to continue to use it, but it does create an annoying issue when using a wireless allshare connection.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Nope that's just a limitation of the AR4 screen. It's just 800 by 480 pixels, nothing compared to the high resolution of the phone itself.

Parking brake bypass for US version or just ground input for EU version?

Yes, I have been working on this but I was struggling to find time for it. Finally tonight found some time and will have more time in the next few days. Unfortunately I have to do some of these things by clicking some things in the settings GUI, which is different for the various brands and also language dependent. So I decided to start with the Nexus 6 and then add some more brands / models with your help.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
I was talking from the developer side. With an accessibility service my app can listen for events in the GUI and interact with it. Like I start the part of the settings GUI where you can start screencasting and wait for the cast button to show and then click it.

Hello,

I already read the first 20 pages and got a lot of info, but English is not my native language and I dont understand everything.

I have a HTC M8 lollipop, sph-da 120 connected with mirrorlink. But the radio crashes often, so it is not usable very well.

I would like to use ARU or ARUR with chromecast dongle.

Will I be able to charge the phone in app mode?

Will the screen refresh rate get better with hdmi than with mirrorlink?

Thanks in advance,

Martin

SlimKat ROM Works with ARUR

Just an update. I flashed my DROID 4 with SlimKat ROM (Android 4.4.4) by http://www.slimroms.net/index.php/slim-bean-features . It's stable, fast, and ARUR works perfect.

Just for the record this is an Awesome app, and well worth the money for me to be able to use my app radio. I have a question though. The screen looked great when I was using a galaxy s5. Now I have the galaxy s6 and all the icons on my phone get crunched together, and stacked so to say. I have a galaxy s6 edge. Any ideas how to make the screen look normal when I start app radio unchained?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Do you get black bars on the side of the head unit's screen?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nothingshocking:
I have the same issue and it more has to do with the Samsung Launcher not being compatible with Landscape mode. I use the Google Now Launcher and it works fine with my Edge and Appradio. Now if I could just get the my phone to Auto Connect to Chromecast when AUR starts. I don't even care about having to hit tethering manually, but the game of selecting my Chromecast before the AUR kicks in is not fun.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
I am working on it. Think tomorrow will have a version for the Nexus 6 and then will make it work for the S6 as well.

Edit: Have a version that is working for the Nexus 6. Needs some tweaking & improvements but it's a good start.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mart Son:
Great work,

ARUR is working flawlessly with HTC M8 and SPH-DA 120!

Purchased yesterday, thanks a lot!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] robsy:
Anxiously awaiting the s6 version. What would be needed to connect to the sph da110. I have the Pioneer android cable kit for connecting my htc one x but I've read that Samsung use different tech. Anyone have a guide to getting full mirroring with the Samsung galaxy s6? I'm willing to try different leads, chrome cast etc.

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jell36:
It works with the Galaxy S6 edge and no black bars either side of the screen, the only very minor issue is that the app icons on the phone are a little squashed/stacked as another user commented.

To get it working, root your phone with the ping pong root method so as to avoid tripping KNOX (google ping pong root and you'll find instructions). Then download and install the ARUR app.

As the S6 does not have HDMI or MHL you will need to connect by either a chromecast or mirrorcast dongle.

I have a 4000 NEX. My tmobile G3 is running Cloudy's stock lollipop rom. I'm trying to connect wirelessly using the microsoft display adaptor. But when I boot into the app and hit start my Bluetooth disconnects on the toggle, so I reconnect through the radio Bluetooth settings and it hangs on negotiating protocol. Then finally I get a no hu response on assigned channel message. My diagnostics have everything checked except system app. I don't know where to go from here but I'm willing to do a log cat for anybody.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
So, did it work with the OEM Lollipop ROM?

Have you got the wrong channel option in the app ticked?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
This is likely because you did not set the 'Smartphone settings' on your head unit to 'Others' and 'HDMI'. Go to Settings->System->Input/Output Settings->Smartphone Setup and set Device to 'Others' and Connection to 'HDMI'.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
The newer models like NEX units somehow still connect but then don't communicate when set to 'Iphone'. This results also in the "No HU response on assigned channel" message.

4100-Nex woes, continued

Alright guys so a while back I posted I couldn't get my 4100NEX to register a HDMI connection from the Samsung MHL adapter, still no change, but I finally did get to try a different HDMI connection method (Chromecast) and I was able to select HDMI from the HU. so my HDMI port appears to be working correctly, but now I am stumped as to what my issue could be :(

Running Galaxy S3 SPH-L710, rooted using ODIN to FW 4.4.2, Open to any and all suggestions. Not sure what to do now, any and all help would be greatly appreciated, should I downgrade firmware? any Idea what FW version I should downgrade to? Do I need a new MHL adapter? I am able to connect it to my monitor and see my phone screen on monitor with the 2.0, do I need 3.0?

so confused, but want it to work so badly :(

Thanks again guys

Oh, 1 question I have, If I just set up a connection with hotspot and Chromecast I would lose the touch controls for the phone from the HU right?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thesystem90:
Yea scratch that. It's finally working. Wirelessly mirroring and still able to get a positive charge from the car charger I bought. I still have black bars and and a very wonkey connection process but I can work out those kinks with some tasker and probably lowering phone resolution since the 4000nex is low res resistive screen, but it's still surprisingly responsive. A million thanks for what you've developed Area51. I've been following this development way back when it was only arliberator in development. I'm glad you finished what was started.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
You should be able to get rid of the black bars as following:

When you are in APP mode go to Settings->System->Input/Output settings->AppRadio Video Adjustment. Then position the yellow lines around the part of the screen you want to see, press preview and then Ok.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
It's difficult to say what exactly the issue is. Somehow the 4100NEX doesn't like the HDMI signal. If you don't have a genuine Samsung MHL adapter, it could be because of that.

Nope. Touch can work with Chromecast.

The trick to use Chromecast without an external network, is to switch on the phone's built in wifi hotspot and use another device to set up the Chromecast to use that as network. This only needs to be done once. From then on just enabling the phone's wifi hotspot allows to use the Chromecast. You can see that it connects because then it starts to display the backdrop images. Now you should be able to start screencasting. If you then get Reloaded to connect, you can use touch. Note that you have to select 'APPS' on the 4100NEX because if you select 'HDMI' it will show the phone's screen but you can't use touch.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] thesystem90:
Yea very strange when I tried that, it doesn't use the whole screen even when I adjust it to that. I'm pretty sure it has to do with the quad hd screen and that the 4000nex is lower res.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JLPDA:
After flashing a new ROM to my DROID 4, I now have black bars on the left and right of the screen that I didn't have with the stock ROM. Unfortunately, the AppRadio3 doesn't have "Video Adjustment" settings that the 4100 has. Any suggestions on how to once again take advantage of the whole screen?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dredq:
I have just purchased a Belkin Miracast Video Adapter and plan to install it. Any recommendations on placement. Can it be mounted behind the radio, glove box or should it be in the open. How much signal loss is there (if any) if placed behind the radio or dash? Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chemdawg:
Ok. So I got the video all nice and neat on my screen. HOWEVER, now i'm having an issue with the bluetooth on my Galaxy s6 edge. When you look at your bluetooth settings you have a call audio, and a media audio. If I'm using my galaxy s6 in bluetooth without using app radio, I can listen to my music all day long through bluetooth no problem. When I go to app radio mode, and have my phone mirrored, after about 3 minutes, the media bluetooth part drops out, and I only have call audio. I thought it was a compatibility issue with the galaxy s6 and app radio, but I noticed it's ONLY when I use app radio unchained reloaded. Does anyone else experience this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
Audio goes across the HDMI when in App mode, so shouldn't be needing bluetooth. At least thats how I have always seen it work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chemdawg:
Ok. Here is my setup. It's ALWAYS worked when I had the galaxy S5. I'm using the google chrome cast. I have my phone setup as a mobile hotspot. Chrome cast connects, then when I go to the android dude on the app radio, it connects to bluetooth and app radio unchained reloaded starts. Sounds complicated, but it all starts on it's own. Once app radio is started, I start to cast on the chrome cast. Now i have a full image of my phone with touch controls on my app radio display. Now, if i go to listen to music, it'll play for like 3 min, then it will drop out. if I look at my phone, bluetooth dropped the audio connection for music. If I shut it down and reconnect it will work again for like 3 min. It never did that before on my galaxy s5, and I had it setup the same exact way.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
The audio goes via HDMI so it has nothing to do with Bluetooth. So it seems somehow Chromecast drops the audio connection.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Chemdawg:
Weird. I have the same exact setup as I had on my Galaxy S5, and that worked Phenomenal on the S5. Now on the S6 edge, it's dropping the sound after about 3 min......
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
That would suggest it is phone related and dropping the sound to hdmi after 3 minutes. Lollipop is known to work fine, the ARUR app is known to work fine on Lillipop, so that can only leave the phone and the ROM being run on it.

Not much help I know as you have probably sussed that all out for yourself.

I assume you are on the standard ROM?

Maybe try an app like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix and set it to let app decide, may fix it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] legacydan:
Will this work with a rooted Oneplus one running stock cm12s?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 400ixl:
OnePlus One does not support MHL out, so you will need to use something wireless such as Chromecast. It has been done and proven to work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] legacydan:
Thanks for the info, i have a chromecast so ill see can i figure it out and try get it working. Maybe ill try with the older ARU app first and see if i can get that working. I used that with my Nexus 5 when i had it.

I just switched to Lollipop on my Note 4 from Kit Kat and now I keep getting these little audio glitches and it even disconnected a few times. Any ideas on how to resolve this besides going back to KK?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cmca:
Same here with note 4, getting snow for 2 to 3 seconds before it reconnects. Also have some issues when first connecting audio seems to be playing slow and weird need to disconnect and reconnect 1 or 2 times to fix. When I was using arlib someone mentioned changing your mobile data connection but tried that and it's still happening. Have bought a new mhl so I don't thinks it's that. Gonna read whole thread maybe someone has already answered.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mibuix0r:
Only since you switched to lollipop though right? I installed a new rom last night and will try it again tonight. My old one had DTS and viperaudio, so even though i disabled them it could have had something to do with the weird audio glitch noises. Its weird everything else seems to be the same speed or faster when connected though. Everything works fine through phone speakers as well
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cmca:
Yep, was perfect on kk, might have a look at chromecast though I like the idea of wireless connection and that may sort the issue

Sounds Samsung / ROM / MHL related as its not something that happens to me on Lillipop on a Nexus 5 with Slimport.

ARU Reloaded & Lollipop Not Playing Well Together

I've dug through the forums and haven't found anything to solve this issue but with nearly 70 pages, please forgive me if I've missed something.

I have had ARU Reloaded for some time and found that it ran nearly flawlessly on KitKat. A few weeks ago I upgraded to Lollipop (rooted) and have had problems ever since. Up until the last few days, it was just inconsistent and would work one time and not the next but the last few days it hasn't connected at all. The one consistent thing when it doesn't work is that it shows that it's waiting for an HDMI connection; this despite the fact that my phone is recognizing the HDMI connection. Nothing has changed as far as the head unit or cabling/connection so those can most likely be eliminated as causes. Here's my setup and, again, this worked almost flawlessly with KitKat:

AVH-4000NEX (firmware 1.08 / Others/HDMI input setting)

Samsung MHL/HDMI Adapter (genuine... not a knockoff)

Rooted Verizon Galaxy S4 (Model SCH-I545 / Android version: 5.0.1 / I545VRUGOC1)

ARU Reloaded (version 0.24)

App Diagnostics:

Bluetooth on: Check

Root access: Check

Virtual device exists: Check

Event injection: Check

No app interference: Check

System app and mock locations: Unchecked (although I have also tried changing to a system app as part of my troubleshooting)

App Settings:

Right now only "Rotation locker" and "Toggle Bluetooth on start" are checked although I have tried a number of combinations troubleshooting this.

Any suggestions short of flashing my phone and starting over? I've uninstalled/installed ARUR a few times trying to solve this without any luck and I'm about at my wit's end. I'm hoping someone comes up with something I have missed.

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mibuix0r:
Read the last two pages, the Samsung update to Lollipop really ruins your screen mirroring and MHL. I went back to kit kat and its working fine. I tried all the lollipop roms for my phone, even different audio drivers and no luck.

Compatible Receivers

I know somewhere on here there was a complete list of receivers that have the Android App Mode needed to use ARUR, and it would help a lot if someone pointed me to it. I am looking to purchase the app for use w/ my LG G3 and I need to purchase a new head unit. I have the x5500bhs currently, but it is only compatible with Apple devices, so I am going to sell this one and buy one of the Android-compatible head units. I saw the list in the first post but it only lists a few compatible units, but the video shows an x8600bt which is not in the list. Looking forward to joining the ARUR community here. Thanks.

Pioneer are releasing dozens of HU's per year so its difficult to keep up.

Simple to tell though. It must support HDMI in (not just MirrorLink) and Android Advanced AppMode. It a relatively small set to be honest. NEX, AppRadio 4 and 86XX are the main ones.
