I've been on this OS for a month now and this just started happening in the last couple of days. If it's an OS memory leak issue, why would it just show up now? Is there anything in the logs that will tell you what exactly is happening? I'd like to get this back to the way it was last week, not just dismiss it as an OS issue right off the bat.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
How did you do the update? Did you just update so it's installed as an update to a system app or install it and made it a system app again?

Thanks

We did some testing. It is an issue with the /dev/uinput device. It doesn't like one of the configuration commands. It seems specific to the Galaxy Note Edge. Another Edge user reported the same issue.

Is it possible that this could worked around by using just mirrorlink and a Note Edge?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Nope, Reloaded does not support mirrorlink and even if it did, it wouldn't help.

I bought your app for the note 3 with root, now i have the note 4 without root. There's any possibilities that aru reloded will work without root?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sal R.:
Using ARUR with AppRadio4 (SPH-DA120) and a rooted VZW Note2 OS v4.3.

The only issue i have is the with the GPS Injection. The ARUR gps window shows all zeroes with no status. I've tried toggling mock locations and coverting ARUR into a system app via Titanium backup, but nothing works.

Phone connects flawlessly. For now, I've left ARUR as a user app and disabled mock locations to use the phone GPS.

Searched the thread, but could not find a solution.

EDIT: In addition, I don't think the ARU app was working, either. Every time I would start up Waze, ARU would pop up with a connection failed dialog after touching the HU screen. I would have to "disconnect" via menu to view Waze. Everything else works (mirror, touch, HU home, menu, back buttons, etc). Only GPS injection didn't work.

TIA!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Slicc98:
So basically, there is no way to get reloaded to work with a Note Edge?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Not right now. I have some plans to work on that to try it but currently there seems to always be some issues to solve so that eats up all the time I have available for development. So it may be possible in the future but don't expect it soon.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
I am working on it. It seems a bit of a mystery why it's not working because for two guys it worked once and then never again.

This guy has it has it working:

Somehow the virtual device driver can't be initialised but realisticly this is something that never fails. Maybe it's some Samsung @%$#^$#^ security feature again.

So it might be down to the root method used. Currently comparing this.

Edit: the one that is working is a US Tmobile one.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
I am already working on it. Another user has the same issue. You are the second one to report this. The BT communication protocol was changed. Only the new Pioneer app is able to receive the GPS data. ARU is based on an older version and can't do it either. I think maybe there's an extra command necessary to switch sending of GPS data on or there's another type of GPS message sent. Obviously if no GPS data received there's nothing to inject either.

It would help me to get BT logging from communication between the new Pioneer app and the AR4. With Kitkat that would be really easy as you can just enable Bluetooth HCI Snoop logging but for 4.3 it's not so easy. The other guy already made a log but it was done with an Android stick and it only logged the messages sent by the Pioneer app and not what's received from the AR4. Must be some Chinese implementation issue.

Would you be able to use a Kitkat device to create logging? Otherwise there's also an app that can enable it on 4.3 but that doesn't always work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sal R.:
I'll load up a 4.4 ROM on my N2.

So create a BT log using the original Pioneer play store AppRadio app and a 4.4 Note2, right?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Right. In the developer options there's an option called "Enable Bluetooth HCI snoop log", if you enable that it will store all BT communication in a log file. So please enable that. Unistall ARUR, install Pioneer app. Then make a connection, wait for a bit so I can see all messages and send me the log file. The log file is stored in /sdcard/btsnoop_hci.log. It is sometimes in another location you can then search for btsnoop_hci.log with ES File Explorer for instance. Please mail to the paypal donation email address or the one from the Play store (is the same one).

I made an AppRadio simulator so I can use your data to have the simulator talk to the Pioneer app and reverse engineer it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Slicc98:
I have a USA Tmobile one as well but I have a DA210 (App Radio3)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Doesn't matter what AppRadio you have. The issue of Event injection not working (no touch) depends on the phone only.

Is your phone rooted already?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sal R.:
So, I just installed the Play Store Pioneer AppRadio app.

Only one compatible app showed up and it was AppRadioLive. AR4 and phone showed a connection and the soft keys were registering from the HU (menu).

Have to wait til I get home to load up a 4.4 ROM, but will that be enough to trouble shoot the GPS BT connection? I can't view any app that uses GPS in the crappy AppRadio app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
The old Pioneer app, was always receiving the GPS data but in the new one it could be different The other guy said he used Waze to check his location with the new Pioneer app. So it seems that still works with the new Pioneer app. Maybe you have to install AppRadio live to get that working. I installed it once but got rid of it quickly.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sal R.:
AppRadio4 (SPH-DA120) on VZW Note2 Android v4.3.

Got Waze working.

It works with the latest store Pioneer App, ARU 2.4.16, and ARUR v0.21 with mock locations disabled. I had to "disconnect" from the AppRadio and ARU app (via menu) before I could view Waze and GPS got a lock. GMaps could not get a lock. Confirmed that phone GPS was off. So that's good news. ARUR GPS menu was all zeroes, as expected.

Lastly, I re-opened and re-connected ARUR with mock locations enabled and Waze could not get a GPS lock. ARUR GPS menu was still all zeroes.

I'll get what you need tonight after I get off work. Hopefully, you can find a way to reverse engineer a solution.

Srsly tho, without your app, AppRadio is a real piece of **** equipment that just looks pretty.

TIA!

Hi,

Need your help guys,

In general, I have Pioneer AVH-X8650BT (Double Din), and I use it with iPhone and Android too.

The things that important to me from the stereo : Waze, Video Clips, bluetooth speaker.

So I bought the app, and use it in my Xiaomi redmi note 2+Chromecast, but it's not works perfect,

As you know, chromecast needs internet connection, so I share from my redmi note internet hotspot + chromecast app + waze, so the waze/gps not works so well (I think that the phone is quite weak).

So I have few ideas, need your help please:

A. I wanted to replace the double din to Nexus 7, so it will work great, but the iPhone can't use the tablet as bluetooth speaker.

B. I wanted to put HDMI stick connect to the double din, but it's not have GPS option

C. What you say about Nexus 5 (without sim card)? "drop" it in my glove box, it will connected with HDMI to the double din (the double din still be the bluetooth speaker), when the nexus will get power from the HDMI (with Tasker) it will awake from deep sleep (Can I do it? deep sleep for Nexus 5?) then I use it with own GPS, I just share internet hotspot.

And I can connect to him USB stick (with USB hub) so I can watch the video clips through the nexus, and I don't need to use the stereo "USB".

And I also can "design" the desktop of Nexus 5 to use it like the nexus 7 tablet.

D. to buy ActionTec Mini Beam 2, it's like chromecast, but not needs any internet connection, it will works good with android, but not works with iPhone.

Someone tried something like that? if yes, how it works?

How's non-root coming along? Given Google's decision to make unlocked bootloaders and SuperSU fail SafetyNet, non-root version is needed more than ever. Each day more apps won't work due to failing SafetyNet.

Does anybody else see what's wrong here? It's bugged me for over a year and I am not sure if it's been mentioned or not.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Well the method that's abusing ADB is working for Android 5 but not yet for Android 6 but I know it's possible. Then for Android 7 it's probably not going to work because of tightened security in the SELinux configuration.

However for Android 7 the accessibility service now offers the possibility to perform gestures. This is an indirect way of injecting motion events. So this will allow to control the screen but things like long keypresses / pinching / zooming might be an issue. On the other hand it doesn't require any complicated stuff like starting a process via ADB. It's just installing the app and it will work. I have been experimenting with this and it does indeed work but only on Android 7. Now I am facing a bit of a dilemma. Of course I will make an Android 7 version as that's the way forward but it will now only work on Google devices. Should I still release that ADB version as it won't be necessary once the main manufacturers also release Android 7?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] stargate125645:
If I were you, I would focus on the Android 7 version and see if you can get all the touch types you mentioned to work. ADB method seems to be a dead end if it is only working for Android 5 and there is hope only of getting it working on Android 6 but not 7.

Is there a way to hack Android Auto interface to work like ARU does now?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] adfurgerson:
The appeal of the rootless version for me is that it would allow me to purchase a new phone at launch knowing ARUR could be ran. So yes I too think focusing on Nougat is a wise course of action.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] adfurgerson:
I run this app in "self mode" on my phone while using ARUR.

http://xdaforums.com/general/paid-software/android-4-1-headunit-reloaded-android-t3432348

Here is an old video of the original version of HeadUnit running on my AppRadio 4.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ie2RRU82xng

The first developer of the app sadly passed away, and a new one picked up development and is carrying it forward. The new developer mentioned he thought that theoretically HUR could be ran natively on Pioneer units, but doesn't have one to test with.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Pig Vomit:
I am a Nexus 6P owner on Nougat, so of course it would be easy for me to say ignore the older versions and focus on 7. The fact is that very few devices are on 7 or will be getting an upgrade to 7 in the reasonably near future. Uptake of new versions of Android are notoriously slow. Check out the latest Google Dashboard: https://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html. However, those figures include many less developed countries where the existence of AppRadio in a vehicle would be rare.

I think that anyone with enough tech savvy to have ARU and AppRadio is highly unlikely to be running 5 for much longer. And is the SafetyNet issue even affecting 5 yet (not sure)? Many/most ARU users will be running 6 for the foreseeable future, so that shouldn't be ignored. So if I were developing ARU, I'd focus on both 6 and 7. There would also be nothing wrong with having two versions if that is what's easiest.

Just my off the cuff opinion.

Its a simple spelling error. It says sreencasting not screencasting. Not something game breaking just a slight annoyance.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Right, I guess I am blind.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Just got a prototype of the Android 7 rootless version working. It's a bit clunky as it's not possible to directly inject motion events but instead have to send complete gestures. To know what gesture to send of course the user has to make that gesture first and only when he finishes the gesture, it can be sent and executed. Basically the gestures are recorded and then played back. For short events like typing on the keyboard this or pressing a button this is no issue. For a long keypress you just need to press the key for some time then release it and hope it was long enough to be a long keypress.

Anyway it's workable and can be improved by detecting the gestures more precisely so it will be replicated as best as possible. Of course the beauty of it is that anybody can use it, no need to root or use ADB. Just install the app and it will work.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] stargate125645:

I'm in the process of setting up my new HTC 10 (Marshmallow 6.01 stock) with ARU .31 and Miracast. I have the Screen beam 2 mini and most of the time everything seems to connect automatically as expected. However I would say about 40% of the time on the Appradio screen it says 'ready to connect...' the cast screen pops up on the phone and then imeditly closes. If I then launch the cast screen with Tasker it usualy connects, but sometimes it takes several tries. Another senario is the cast screen says 'connecting' but on the Appradio it just says ready to connect.... I have to then close the cast screen, toggle WiFi off/on and then launch the cast screen again. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx!

Now that the Pixel and Pixel XL have been rooted, has anyone managed to get ARUR functioning properly with either device, or not just yet?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
It's just casting quirkiness. ARUR pops up the cast screen, looks to find the adapter and then clicks on it to connect. It closes the cast screen only when it has clicked. However it doesn't check that it really connects.

What I could add is that once it is clicked, it verifies that the status goes to connected and if not clicks again and so on. The case where it says 'connecting' but doesn't actually connect can't be fixed by this as this is some Miracast connection issue.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Pig Vomit:
I was waiting for somebody else to jump in here. I don't have a Pixel, but ARUR on my Nexus 6P works just fine on 7.1.1 Developer Preview with root by Chainfire (2.78 SR3). Hope that helps. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work on a Pixel as long as you have root.

While the Pixels have some significant differences from previous Android phones (mostly relating to how OTA updates are handled), the underlying OS is basically the same. So....what works for one rooted phone on Nougat should work on any rooted phone on Nougat. The problem is Google is currently involved in a full attack on root......and the use of SafetyNet by app developers will only become more prevalent, making root on a device very inconvenient. So the future is non-root, and I can't wait to try the non-root version of ARUR.

I did notice one small difference between 7.0 and 7.1.1. I use a Tasker profile to automate things (see some earlier posts of mine), and the position of the cast device name on the screen moved just a little bit. I had to adjust the location of one simulated tap.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] nettech_gt:
Area51 that would be great if you would add the feature to have the Miracast connection verified before the cast screen closes. Thanx!

On another note.....Android Auto 2.0 now works without an Android Auto enabled head unit. I installed it this morning (through apkmirror/Android Police) and just experimented on my way home by casting it to my head unit. Probably some advantages and disadvantages to it. But at least we can now try it without an AA-enabled head unit.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] stargate125645:
​

How is Android Auto Google Maps comparing with ARUR running it without an intermediary interface? Is the same information and view given, such as lane to be in? I also worry about future implementation of using phone sensors to prevent use of Android Auto while the car is moving.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Pig Vomit:
It's basically the same maps functionality.....but the screen is a little smaller to allow for bigger user buttons. Certainly there's less functionality there than by using ARUR to mirror your screen. But for someone like me whose primary use of ARUR is for maps and navigation......it might work.

Part of the point of Android Auto is to make driving safer. It does help in that regard by reducing some phone functionality (like texting).

Why not install it for a bit and see if it works for you? We all use the phone too much while driving. Take away the ability to do something like texting, and you might change some bad habits. It's an easy install and an easy uninstall.

My head unit does not have Android Auto, so I have no way of testing it. It is only of concern for future use in a new car in case the rootless version proves to be too troublesome.

Yes, I have a prototype working with Android 7 as this has the ability to inject gestures. I am working on finishing a test version for people to try.

I also have a prototype working with Android 5 that uses the adb interface. To get it working with Android 6 requires some more work. I will work on this once the Android 7 version is ready.

Audio Dropouts With ChromeCast

Hello,

I have recently started to experience audio drop outs and disconnects when casting to my App Radio using ChromeCast. When I play audio through Bluetooth and the appradio I do not experience these drops, only when casting. Do you have any ideas? Is there any way to cast the video through the ChromeCast and the audio through BlueTooth?

Hi. I have been a user of ARUR for a long time now and are currently using the alpha version with my att sgs5 and a miracast. Its working fine on my car so far.

I have a second car and for this im considering using an old phone and leave it connected with the mhl adaptor there 100% of the time.
