Here is the photo of my phone with my AA running (sorry for the photo instead of normal screenshot, lol). I don't see, where I can select OBD2AA in my AA app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Haxxa:
This app isn't designed for the phone alone: "Android Auto compatible headunit or at least a copy of the Headunit Reloaded App is required" . Not suitable for handset alone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] focus-pocus:
Oh, I see. I've just installed and tried Headunit Reloaded trial on my G6. It's slow and lagging and it seems like I need to keep head unit server running (which has this annoying notification).

Bummer. It would have been so nice to have Torque functionality in Android Auto on a phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Haxxa:
There are plenty of torque plugins that are designed to offer a dashboard like experience with Android, I suggest you use them as an alternative even if they aren't as integrated. Headunit Reloaded isn't really suited to what you're describing on a standalone handset anyway.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] focus-pocus:
Yeah, Torque is great even without its plugins, I'm satisfied with its built-in dashboard.

But it's just not that convenient to switch between 3 different apps, while driving (Torque, Google Maps, Spotify). May be I can find some floating widgets for this trio.

I really like Android Auto app, as it conveniently integrates Maps, Phone and Spotify (and some messengers). Unfortunately, Torque integration is lacking as of now.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] FormelLMS:
For this scenario I've used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=spinninghead.carhome and it was fine to use in the car.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] m00n61:
I wouldn't say HUR is slow and lagging, Maybe you have too many apps running simultaneously?

Anyway, you don't need to install HUR on the phone. You can use an old tablet as a head unit and have HUR installed on the tablet. HUR connects to the phone via WiFi so no cables either. This way you get AA in your car on a screen the size you like.

As for the annoying notification here's a hint: buy the app and it's gone :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Not yet, but yesterday why I was working on enhancing the current ones I had the same thought. I just need to make a list of priorities.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Sorry about that, shoot me an email and I can issue you a refund no problems

As of HUR it shouldn't be lagging​ but in self mode can be problematic with phone calls depends a lot on the dialer used by the phone. The headunit server but will stay in the notification bar regardless if you are on the trial of paid version.

EDIT.

I will recommend using AutoMate for this case, it has a built in Torque function as well and it's highly customizable.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Added version 1.4 to the beta channel.

Changes:

- Some of the settings are moved to a separate setting page (for better organize)

- Replaced classic font with a digital one (it scales much better)

- Fixed (hopefully) custom PIDs

- Updated gauge styles (a bit better graphics)

- Added monitor for coolant (can give a notification when engine is warm enough)

- Should handle negative values as well

Let me know what bugs you find please (if any)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spiff72:
Cool! I will install and give it a try later. Recommend clearing all data from the previous version again?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Should work without clearing data but if it does play up do a data clear.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nugg2808:
Further update, obd2aa works a handful of times before it dissappears from AA then have to clear data and cache from AA to get it back, I believe its only obd2aa 3.6a that is working
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
@mBlok

Do you have a new version for us?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mBlok:
I'm working on AAWireless in parallel so i'm kind of late with an update, but will get back to you guys in coming days
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
Okay. I Understand. You are working on the firmware,too?

Thank you for your answer.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ls13silvia:
Seems okay on my Pioneer for now.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spektr23:
I was testing this new alpha version on the way to the sea and it was ok - except that it's quite a lot stress for the phone - process power.

On the way back, in freezes two times, then i gave up. When this happened i must restart the phone , and doing this while driving was eating my focus.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] binary_boy01:
For me latest vers is not even working, a message og phone says: starting proxy service, then, nothing, hu displays error: check if your phone is unlocked. Any thoughts?

Best regards,
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ls13silvia:
So here's what got mine working on aftermarket headunit (as mentioned previously). I cleared the cache & data from all three apps. Uninstalled everything (including AA update). Installed aaa then installed beta. Only then did I upgrade AA via playstore. I open aaa app on phone and then enabled both AA and AAA permissions for notifications. When you get back to the "tap android auto 10 times screen" there will be one or two permissions that will be on that page you have to enable; location and something else (sometimes). Enable dev. mode. After plugging in usb, gave me the option to choose between AA, obd2aa and beta. I chose obd2aa, just once. I get to run the old layout. Haven't tried new beta icon.

On a Note10+ one ui 4.1 Android 12 and 2550nex Pioneer.

**Make sure you have the supported Samsung/Google/compatible USB (not the cheap $9 ones) --where a lot of people fall short, imo.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crobinson3378:
I have both the old app and the new beta, neither works repeatedly at this point, hoping to ride it out until a stable new version is released.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
I downloaded the latest version via the AAW website am running the latest android auto and AAW firmware 2.0

I installed the latest obd2aa, patched it using AA AIO and setup/imported my gauges. Last two days I've been using android auto wirelessly without issues and can open obd2aa inside android auto and it runs perfect
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
@1qazwsx4

Sorry, what is the aaw website?

I use the Emils Android Auto wireless dongle, too. But it's not running. Can you make screenshot from your settings from the dongle settings and the android auto settings?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Default AAW settings, and android auto settings the only thing needed to be enabled is the option to allow unknown sources. Sadly after three days my obd2aa had disappeared from AA launcher but toggled it and went for a drive today and it's there again
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spektr23:
Do you have the previous version ob obd2aa also installed?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Nope just the version that's currently downloadable via the link provided in this thread. Wiped android auto data, setup and installed AA, then AAW. Installed obdwaa, patched it using AA AIO and set it up, rebooted and have enjoyed it working for over a week
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spektr23:
Can you please explain this - patched it using A AIO?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
Perhaps, he mean the AA AIO Tweaker.

https://xdaforums.com/t/root-only-aa-aio-tweaker-the-ultimate-android-auto-utility.4194239/
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Can't really explain it any more than what I did above 😐
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] danielsilva926:
is there any news?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
@mBlok
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] f465gt:
I just noticed that the AA developer options have been changed. You need to enable "unknown sources" in order to make Obd2aa appear again in the launcher.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Houndcatcher:
I've tried to reuse this today but after reinstalling the Apk I just get "No messages in this drive" on the car screen when I select it and the App seems different as there is no preview button to preview my guage setups! Not sure what i've done wrong this time?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nugg2808:
You haven't done anything wrong, a lot of people are having the same problem we are waiting for another update, preview hasn't been added to the new version, only really appears to be the old a version that works and then dissappears from the app list after a couple of uses
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Goon818:
Use you Wifi or USB. If you use USB try this.

I'm trying to get the XDA Developers App on my phone, but i couldn't

Anyone can help me?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Trrami96:
I downloaded the new version, I have been using it for awhile now. I have a Kenwood unit with wireless android auto, it works and does so correctly but there is an issue. The only known current issue I have is that I have to fully reset and delete all data on android auto. Once you do that just open the android auto like normal it will go through its promps and then it will work. You have to do it everytime you use it or turn the vehicle off/new connection but other then that it works, which is better then it used to be. Besides that hassle it seems to be fine, for me at least.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] spektr23:
New version? You mean alfa version?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Trrami96:
I guess, which ever one Emil released on the 14th of April. My current version is 3.6a
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] danielsilva926:
@mBlok we already have some more news ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JuliK98:
I got the old Version (3.6b) to run by doing what 1qazwsx4 said. It works as it did before and so far survived multiple phone/headunit restarts.

The catch is that this requires a rooted phone. Here is what i did:

-Deleted Android Auto data (i have the latest version installed)

-Installed OBD2AA using Option 1 (i havent tested Option 2)

-Installed AA AIO Tweaker and used its "patch custom apps" function on OBD2AA.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Yup and I can vouch it still works perfectly as of today. Maybe once every 1-2 weeks it disappears from the launcher but you simply go into android auto launcher settings, remove it then add it again. Takes 5 seconds 👍
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] matti157:
Hello!

I wanted to buy the app here https://www.b3itlabs.com/prod.php?id=2 but there is the message "Currently unavailable due to changes in Android Auto!"

I think because all of the "No messages in this drive"

So where do I download the old working version 3.6b from?

Or is it not necessary to use the old version but the new one? I see the developer mentions it here https://xdaforums.com/t/app-5-0-obd...torque-with-androidauto.3657805/post-86742913
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ls13silvia:
So I've come across a weird quirk with the obd2 app. Not a big deal but for some reason it kept crashing the aaa app when I have speed cameras and red-light camera enabled. I'm not sure if it's because of where I live (Chicago) they are almost everywhere but after disabling detection, there's no issues.

@Emil Borconi or anybody, really. Would there be a way to resize the guage layout? Would love to not have stacked middle guages in 4 gauge layout overlapping and possibly resize them.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] matti157:
Any news? I can't figure out the current status of the project and whether there are workarounds @Emil Borconi @mBlok

BTW i'm ready to buy...

EDIT, I have a phone with Android 10, nothing of too new
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crobinson3378:
Since this app may or may not ever get working as intended does anyone know of any other apps that do the same functions?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] matti157:
I froze an old Motorola to Android 10

Can you just provide me a link to download the latest version of OBD2AA? I guess it is 3.6b

Thanks

@Emil Borconi @1qazwsx4 @mBlok
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Sorry mate since it's a paid app I can't supply a download link. You'll have to use the links provided in this thread which is the same version I'm running - 3.6b
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] matti157:
Thanks

This is the link, isn't it? https://www.b3itlabs.com/prod.php?id=2

I would gladly purchase it, but the ability to make the purchase has been blocked from that page. Whatever payment method I choose
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Yeah it's been disabled for purchasing as the app no longer functions as intended for the moment. Android auto changes means it's a pain to get it installed and remain useable for some with issues ranging from no gauges, the app saying "you have no new messages" to simply disappearing altogether so the Devs have been remaking it based off Google's new "architecture" and I'm assuming it will end up being released and purchasable again. Long story short, the test releases seem to be avaliable for those who previously purchased the app only
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] matti157:
I "found" version 3.6a working and had fun activating it

My car is an Alfa Giulia 2.2 JTD-m 180hp

@developers, if you provide me a way to purchase it I can do it immediately. Congratulations, the app is great and the integration with Torque is done beautifully
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] grac:
Does it work with android 12 and Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra with aawireless ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] snocrash:
@mBlok Is there a way to switch to the TPMS screen on the alpha app? I was able to populate the settings for the PIDS, but wasn't able to figure out how to change screens.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] danielsilva926:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] danielsilva926:
Just to remind you that at the beginning of the year the correction app would be released. :oops:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tek_ids:
Using the method from post 3435 in SM-G960F configuration with android 8 and AA 7.6.121504 the obd2aa 6.3b app worked until a few days ago. Now I can no longer select OBD2AA or AA as the default app to connect to the car when connecting the phone to the car's RLink.

Any tips? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Above method is still working perfectly, has been since I posted the previous comment. Latest Android auto installed and working fine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tek_ids:
Is the method you are using for rooted phones?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Yeah, need root. Being XDA I just assume everyone has magisk flashed at this stage
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beletruz:
Root is basically dead in 2022, i mean who is willing to sacrifice their banking app for root. (i used to root and change the rom the second i got a new phone, nowadays i don't see the point in rooting and also i need my banking apps working...) change my mind :))
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Change your mind? I'm rooted and my banking apps work 😂 I have zero advertising on my phone both from apps and online without draining battery/slowing down data by using a VPN, audio mods supporting headphones and Bluetooth which are a game changer, automation from macrodroid, advanced backup solutions, systemwide custom theming, modified android auto and running obd2aa successfully without needing to manually instal or wipe etc... Want me to carry on? I agree though, root is only useful if you utilise it 😎 I'll keep rooting my devices
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beletruz:
Don't get me wrong I know the benefits of rooting better than most, if you can explain how to get my banking apps to work and gpay i'll root my s21 at that exact moment :))
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JuliK98:
I have a rooted Poco F3 running Android 11/Miui 12.5 with all banking apps including GPay working. I dont know if this works on every phone but it is certainly possible with the help of Magisk modules.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beletruz:
Guys, today is a big day, after i did some research i rooted my phone , banking apps work, what a time to be alive, thanks @

1qazwsx4 for opening my eyes, it's good to be back​
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] beletruz:
nevermind one of the 2 apps works and gpay doesn't fml
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
Keep researching man, sometimes it's a ROM issue - sometimes it's changing settings within magisk or flashing the right add-on etc
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nickolopogus:
The last working version didn't require phone to be rooted, so I don't see why we need to for it to work.

Just gonna have to wait for the devs I guess.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
That's exactly it. People kept asking for a fix and how to make it work, my method above works but requires root - or wait.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Houndcatcher:
I have an old S9+ rooted and root hidden by Magisk from my banking Apps which works fine except for Halifax Bank here in the UK. Odd thing is my phone fails safety net but only the Halifax App won't work! Tried SafetyNet Fix but it soft bricked my phone so I gave up! :( This AA plug in refuses to work for me too!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] 1qazwsx4:
I guess this info may help those who are persistent in having gauges but can't get this working... I know this isn't totally relevant to this paid app but since there's been no news I'll mention it.

Today my new toy arrived - it's an android box that is hacked to run using a wired carplay connection. If your car can use wired CARPLAY then you connect this device, the box then turns apple car play into a fully functioning android box. I'm talking torque, Netflix, YouTube, VLC - any app I've thrown at it works without needing my android phone. Device is called carlinkit. Make sure you check your head unit is compatible 👍
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Crobinson3378:
What sucks is the devs said a month or so at the beginning of the year and one update since that didn't do anything. The radio silence gives the impression that development is dead.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nugg2808:
Would be good to know if they have given up or not, I'm keeping my fingers crossed it comes back bigger and better than ever
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Nickolopogus:
I don't think we'd have this issue if it was free, but as it's paid it is disappointing and really needs to be shared freely since it's a dead app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] tek_ids:
I rooted a SM-G920F phone, installed AA IO, pach to OBD2AA, it shows up in apps, but AA tells me it can't run on this device. What am I doing wrong?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Esiek1:
It's really working! Problem solved, thank you!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jw97:
It worked over wire for me with both 3.6b and alpha installed, just enabled unknown sources, started the head unit server, plugged phone in, selected the old app when prompted, it said it wouldn't work, then android auto loaded and I could select the old app, both are still showing in android auto settings after a drive so hopefully it lasts
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jw97:
Just to add, done 4 separate drives today, started head server before each, plugged phone in, selected the 3.6b obd2aa when prompted and it worked each time without issue, my only bug is I'm not prompted if I try to go via my AA wireless adapter but that's separate to this app, glad I've got it back, just hope it lasts lol (z Fold 3,latest android version available, latest android auto version, phone is not rooted)

@Emil Borconi @mBlok

We know you are working hard for AAwireless. But please don't forget us and maybe you can give us some information. Would be sometime OBD2AA working normally again. And maybe with your nice AAwireless adapter. I have two ;-)

@Esiek1

Thank You

I mean for AiO I need root. This is my problem.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Esiek1:
Best solution is to buy a cheap used rooted (or root ready) and put it pernamently in a car.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Spsully2582:
Don't you lose the rest of android auto that would be coming from your normal phone?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Esiek1:
Like what? I have Google maps (connected with my Google account) , antiradar apps, ms Teams etc. Everything I would have on my normal phone besides calling but my normal phone is connected using Bluetooth so I can talk as well.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Spsully2582:
That's a good point
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] danielsilva926:
we see more and more app for android auto and this one never...

the programmer should release the code to see if anyone could help, as it is not fair for those who paid for the app and use it for half a year only
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] MoonShadow24:
I agree 100%. Google is really missing out on adding this instead of blocking 3rd party apps. Everyone paid for this just to be blocked from it and it not be able to work at all. No work around no communication. Took everyone's 1 time payment and gone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] hand-filer:
It worked just fine at the time of release. It's not the fault of the developer that google blocked 3rd party apps. I got over forfeiting that whopping huge sum of $1.99 and moved on.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] asidscript:
So is this impossible now?

or do we have a work around?

I would very much like to get Torque Pro up on my HU
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Esieksl:
It is possible and I'm using the app for 6 months now working like a charm. Just buy used rooted phone for 50$ and use aiotweaker on the app and leave the phone in car forever. Done. There won't be any better solution, deal with it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] asidscript:
Yeah that is probably because you set it up 6 months ago, before AA blocked the mim plugins. what version of AA are you running now?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Esieksl:
Don't know but it is updating regulary via Google play so it's the latest. Did you tried aiotweaker?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Update 30.11.2022

End of life and open source.

Due to lots of changes both in Android and in my life, I do not have the possibility to maintain / update the code any further, therefore I've decided to open source.

Code is accessible: https://github.com/borconi/obd2aa

I will like to thank all of those who supported this project.
