Finally got the Samsung S9 plus to work on wire setup!!!

Okay all here is my setup, stereo == AVH-4200NEX, phone == Samsung S9 plus.

Now at first, I didn't do as much good research as I thought I did, and the MHL setup (CD-AH200), I had tried had the micro usb plug for the phones. This wasn't a good option as my S9 please didn't seem to work with it (even with adapters). For a while I thought that the S9 plus wasn't capable for the screen sharing via wire. NOT TRUE! Luckily, I had a miracast sitting around and was able to get things to work. My only issue was from starting the car to syncing the phone, seemed to take forever. And I really wanted the wire setup to work anyways. Every where I was looking just seemed to run to a dead end, and thought I would have to give up just settle with the Miracast setup. Once I understood that the screen sharing via wire was possible, and understood the touch connection is setup via bluetooth. My only other obstacle was to get the wired screen sharing setup to also charger my phone.

So I found this device "USB Type-C to HDMI & USB 3.0 with Power Delivery" (model: JCA379) at Best Buy (pretty sure it can be found somewhere else like Amazon, but I leave that up to you where to get it.) It was quite the Eureka moment!

When I got home I tested the TV all worked good, then the car, and all was has it should have been.

Since I got this to work, I wanted to share with everyone as someone else, may be struggling with the same or similar issue. Hope this helps at least one or more people.

Turely am enjoying the full functions I can get out of my smartphone and car stereo.

Thank you for this AWESOME app!!!

Best note, if you see it's possible, and you believe enough that it's possible. You will find a way to make it work, don't give up on that dream!

Casting is outside of the app. So there's nothing that can be done in the app to improve it.

Thanks for the donation.

Why would rooting help in this case?

Isn't there an option in the casting app? With Samsung phones there's an option to set the screen casting aspect ratio.

In my car that has an AppRadio I am using a TV-box for which I changed the DPI so it matches the screen size properly.

I rooted for the second screen app. (https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2766268)

So I made it look great. In the app second screen I add to stream size of old phone (OP5 - 1080 x 1920 pixels, 16:9 ratio (~401 ppi density)), but with in settings - display - app display in fullscreen and add full screen for apps that I use in the car, and for launcher as well. What was happening it have that notch area where is camera, so it was not using that area when mirrored as the app was not using it, so ti had black line on right screen of pionner...

But now I have other problem... Touch screen... I tried to calibrate, but cannot even press red dot properly on the pionner, need to touch it on the phone to register... :/

One things I wondering, why rooted app doesn't have that option to change launcher as rootless? It is cool option, as I could make in different launcher car wallpaper etc...

Just downloaded ARURootless

Bought an SPH DA120 about a month ago and was happy using an MHL cable with an old samsung charger to USB C adapter to use CarMode, got bored and frustrated with it quite quickly so then went on to use EasyTouch so I could mirror my phone that way but that too was frustrating as once you accidentally pressed the wrong home button it would send you to CarMode without the EasyTouch floating panel anywhere >.>!..

Bought a HDMI to USB C adapter where I also plug the MHL cable into and was using AppRadio mode (and live) tonight and it's alright I guess.. always looked at YouTube of ARU but never saw Samsung S8 and SPH DA120 used together.. I gather it will work as finally I've found this thread and had a read through!! Can't wait to try it out tomorrow!

Hey guys still having issues with the adapters as it keeps flickering. Ive tried two different ones and have not been impressed with the microsoft wireless display adapter. Can anyone provide a proven adapter for the s9.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
Are you sure there isn't an issue with the HDMI cable or any HDMI coupler that you might use? A bad quality HDMI cable can cause issues.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] joep88:
It works fine with my lg g4 and the primecables micro usb to hdmi adapter. I am going to try updating the firmware of the microsoft wireless adapter and see if that helps. Just cant seem to find something that works with usb-c.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
Try something with display link chip. But note that you need to run additional app for it DisplayLink Presenter.

I've been having really bad audio stutter issues since updating my Note 8 to Oreo 8.0. Had zero issues prior using SB Mini II. Tried a bunch of things but nothing seems to be fixing the problem. I figured I would give a usb-c to HDMI cable a try but also had issues with the head unit recognizing the phone. When it did decide to work it would drop out unexpectedly. Really frustrating as all was well before I updated to Oreo 8.0.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
I start having lots of problems on my OP5 when I went to Oreo as well. They never fix it and now it is not much better on Pie either.

It is not arunchained problem, it is Android itself. I tried different Miracast devices 2.4g , 5g but nothing changed .
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ninja98r:
I figured it was Oreo 8.0.

Unfortunate that it's not corrected on Pie. Was banking on that...

Guess it's time to try for a wired connection again for the 3rd time.

Can we get an update of what usb-c to hdmi adapters are confirmed to be working well. Will also need a usb-c male to female extension cable. I don't want the adapter to hang or be visible.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
For OnePlus as it have usb 2.0 port must be display link chipset

This is the one I'm using and it works.

https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B013G4CHD4

If you get display link one you will need to use their app as well.

For Samsung Note 8 I need usb-c to Hdmi.

Me too I'm using otg cable usb a to usb c.

You are lucky as Samsung is working with most of adapters even the one that have charging as well.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ninja98r:
Thanks for the suggestion. As mentioned I already attempted two adapters that were similar but they were very finicky. Looking for a confirmed option(s) for Note 8.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
Then get one with display link I have use usb a to c otg connector and you will be good to go
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ninja98r:
Do you know of any display link adapters that have a power port for charging?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
No. If I did I would buy it :laugh:

I tried to plug it to regular one. In usb port. But what end up happening that it works only when charger is not connected. I plug in charger and then screen stop working and it start charging phone (slow speed).

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ninja98r:
Tried that one... Found you had to follow a specific connection order. Turn ignition on - wait for BT to connect - then plug in adapter. Also, you couldn't disconnect and reconnect without turning off and following the sequence again. Occasional drop off as well.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bigcid10:
I told the app to not toggle bluetooth as it does cause connection issues

Also I had to connect the hdmi adapter first then

The charger cable as it wouldn't let aru finish connecting

But I didn't have any issues after that i.e

Starting and restarting the connection
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ninja98r:
I did indeed turn off toggle BT.

Perhaps my problem with it was do to the fact that i had it connected to power under the steering column and ran a usb-c extension to my phone. As a result power was always connected first.

Regardless, I don't want to be manually connecting power post ubc-c connection and I would rather the adapter be hidden.

I need to figure something out as the audio cracks, pops, and skips a lot. Especially when using Waze at the same time.

Had zero issues before updating to Oreo 8.0.

Note 9

This might be a duplicate post. I thought I posted yesterday but do not see my post active.

I have a note 9 and have the following question. My head unit is a pioneer avic8200

What hardware/software do I need to test this app for a. wired and/or b. wireless
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
You posted in another (old) thread. Probably the best way is to use what's mentioned in Post #495 for a wired connection.

Wireless can be done via a Miracast adapter but it's not as reliable and some people have audio disturbances.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Danny10:
Thanks for the feedback.

What's the advantage of this charger vs. a typical multi USB charger?

Additionally, is there a refund policy in case my device doesn't not function well?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
A normal charger may not provide enough power to keep the phone charged and eventually the battery is still drained.

Yes, standard refund period is 48 hours.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Danny10:
Thanks again.

I guess I'm not understanding the need for that specific charger.

Is it just a matter of power?

If i have something like this, it will not work?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
When I did testing with Chromecast it also sometimes doesn't connect even though it has internet access. It's just a Chromecast quirk. It's not designed for mobile use.

Green Android icon not lighting up seems a hardware issue. Basically when a Chromecast is powered it provides a HDMI output signal. The head unit shows a green icon when it detects a valid HDMI signal.

Either the HDMI cable is bad or the Chromecast doesn't get powered sometimes.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
As I understand it, with a normal charger no fast charging. No fast charging, battery can still drain. Please confirm, [MENTION=4388474]bigcid10[/MENTION] ?

As long as I have a fast charge charger, i should be good than. Thank you so much

Last question, I promise :)

The reason for using your app is to utilize the BackCountry Navigator app.

Can you confirm if this works with good optics (rotated).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Danny10:
I bit the bullet and bought the app. It's working OK, except when I disconnected and reconnect it's not launching the app radio and only recognizing as HDMI display. Seems that I have to wait a bit before it shows the app radio icon on the main screen under "apps" .

I did disable the bluetooth toggle as it was messing with my bt radio connections. Not sure if that's why.

Edit... I tried it again and it launched once. I disconnected and reconnected and it won't launch at all now. I have rebooted the phone and headunit multiple times. I'm not sure how to manually trigger it to launch. I have the connect trigger set to HDMI, I have installed Nova launcher and set the launcher settings to nova in the app.

Here's what my app looks like (continuously says listening for connection and I can't trigger)

Usb c to hdmi adapter

Just want to report that I found a usb c to hdmi adapter with pd and a usb extension cable that is working great so far with my note 8 on Oreo 8.0.

I did notice a change in sound though. The vocals and highs are louder, cleaner, and better but the base is not as clear or clean. I suppose due to the different sound characteristics of the direct hdmi connection vs. Miracast...

I do miss the smart screen feature that turned the phones display off. Next mission is to figure out how to run an adb shell command for the second screen app in order to adjust the resolution to 800x480 without root.

Here are the Cable Matters adapter and extension I'm running:

Hey:

Just installed ARU Rootless on an S8 and am using an AppRadio 3 with the miracast dongle. Connects and mirrors OK, except for a lot of apps, I get a dark screen on the Pioneer with a floating around "locked" icon that has a time on it and a little lock icon. My phone is dimmed when this occurs. I've turned off ARU dim phone setting, and that has no effect. I usually use a launcher like Car Home Ultra, but it seems to occur with the default Android launcher as well.

Thanks

Larry
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
I believe you phone is getting locked screen. So it mirrors it on pioneer that way.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] larry@ciummo.com:
That makes sense - the phone goes dark very quickly after starting ARU and launching an app. Any ideas why that would be - the phone does not normally lock until after a long time - I think it's set to a few minutes.

Also read something in an old post about a gesture on the head screen to unlock it - is that still applicable?

Larry
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
It should not lock. I don't know why yours does. Another thing that may help is to set the head unit as a trusted device. In phone Settings->Lock screen and security->Smart Lock->Trusted devices add the head unit.

Feature request

First I want to thank you for your awesome apps. This is my favorite of the three so far as i'm no longer into rooting my phone. It has been part of my daily life and i consider it one of my most essential apps to install.

For my setup manual method has proven to be most reliable and would love the ability to stop the app from the pull down once i have started it. similar to most music players that have the ability to pause/play/stop music.

thanks again!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mtinker6:
Sorry...

If this has been asked a billion times but...

Connecting a note 8 via mhl. Everything works. However, all I want is to have Google maps on the screen whilst listening to the fm radio. At the moment, the radio stops when arrootless takes over. So it is either listen to the radio, or use Google maps but in silence. Am sure there is an easy solution, but the moment is a bit of a deal breaker:(
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] astracd:
When you press volume button on your pioneer it should give you option mix. So you can mix FM sounds with phone sounds.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mtinker6:
Many thanks for your prompt reply. There is a similar suggestion on about page 5 of this thread. It says something like, when in appradio, press the volume button and two tabs should appear, so you may select output.

Sadly, pressing the volume button doesn't do this for me, nor the mix option....

Good news. Any idea why it didn't work when you tried it last year?

Another question do you speak Japanese? I know those devices for the Japanese market only support Japanese language. Or can you change the language in some way?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ACROWA:
Avic-zh0009 was on my desk. I think avic-zh0009 needs more time to determine the location.

I bought and used usb gps, but it was bad. Just began to change the settings and saw that everything works.

Not :( I use https://translate.google.com :D

Yes, only Japanese language.

We tried to do the translation in the same way as they do at http://avic411.com/.

But in Avic-zh0009, the localization files are in the windows kernel. And the translation is very difficult to do.

Please forgive, I don't know English well and use https://translate.google.com

Can anyone shed some light on a problem I'm having? Everything worked OK when my set up was huawei p20 Pro, sph-da110 and Microsoft wireless adaptor except the screen casting would often drop out. I believe this was due to WiFi scanning which I need for WiFi calling due to zero reception at home. I have been trying a usb c to hdmi cable which works great for music but GPS signal keeps getting lost and calls and Google don't seem to be able to find the microphone so I can hear them but they can't hear me. Tried turning off mock locations under the workaround options but no change. Any ideas?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Area51©:
GPS signal getting lost:

It seems you are using the phone's GPS. When using a HDMI cable with not too great shielding it's possible that harmonics of the HDMI signal takeout or disturb the GPS signal.

Solution a) Get a better quality HDMI cable and install that.

Solution b) Use the GPS from the SPH-DA110. Hopefully the head unit's GPS receiver isn't installed too close to the HDMI cable. To do so follow instructions from paragraph 2.7 of the app's user's manual: https://goo.gl/CBDRCc

For the microphone I have no solution. You don't mean normal phone calls I guess because that's done via HFP protocol by the head unit directly.

Hi, i've been trying to find this app with my iphone 8 but no luck. Then i had an idea to use my old phone and download the app since it was android, but again, no luck.

I have an SPH-da100 appradio 2, i wanted to run it on my iphone 8 plus, i made it work, but it's a ceremony just for plugging it in, opening that multiple apps and making it work and this is not talking about the fact i need to have itunes which i don't use, so i need to pay for music i allready have.

My goal is to turn on the key and get music instantly by pressing buttons on the radio screen FOR FREE

I was thinking of using one of my old phones that will live in the glovebox permanently plugged to the radio and play the music from the phone by accessing the phone through the radio.

It is a Sony Ericsson Xperia. I don't know if i'm asking too much from life, but if i can't do it with my phone, i'll use a tv stick, i allready ordered it from ebay, because i need it anyways for a tv at home.
