Should work exactly the same as 1.3 I've emailed you in that case... For the S3 reinstall it and don't convert it to system app. Conversion to system app is very important for TV sticks where you don't have a screen but on the phone you can always give permission to aagateway when you first plug it into the car. Converting to system app allows the app to gain that permission without user input, other then that makes no difference
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blejach:
So here's how it went with my setup:

Car: Opel Astra 2018

Master: Huawei P30 Pro, Android 10

Slave: Huawei Ascend y630, Android 4.3

Removed old version of AAGateway from slave

Installed newest beta AAGateway on slave

Enabled start tether option

Connected slave to car -> Tether started automatically

Installed Wifi Launcher for HUR on the master

Chosen cars BT in wifi launcher app

After this setup i tried turning on/off my car, slave phone, master phone, cars bt, masters bt, etc. in random order few dozen times. It never showed anything on car display.

If i choose to make AAGateWay a system app, everything went well and told me to reboot, but after the reboot the application disappears and can not be found on the phone nor among running apps. Additionally, the tether is no longer started when slave is connected to the car.

I tried to manually connect the master to the slave AP, and manually run AA headunit but still nothing ever appeared on the car display.

Hope it helps.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
I assume you left the non-root mode disabled which is good. Reinstall the app and don't convert it to system app, plug in and wait for tether to start.

On the master please check that the master connects to the car's BT at this point you should see a notification on the master that WiFi launcher for HUR is running if you don't see that on the master something is wrong. If the notification does appear wait for about 30-40 seconds you should see the master connecting to the HUR hotspot, it after the master connects to the hotspot you will see info on the car

Manually connecting the master to the slaves hotspot won't be enough, as the WiFi launcher for HUR app will also trigger AA on the master with a specific port number, so AA will actually connect to the aagateway on the slave, and that is the point which kickstart the cat display.

Its necesary that android auto server runing in master, not?

Its posible to automate it when the phone connects to bluetooth car and disconnect the server when the phone disconnect of bluetooth?

Can someone give details?

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
If master is Oreo or older it is necessary, if master is pie or 10, it's not
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blejach:
Non-root mode is disabled.

Yes, it looks like the problem is with Wifi Launcher as the master did not display the notification once connected to car BT.

I will try to reinstall wifi launcher and try again.

Thanks for the info and suggestions.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DAVIZINHO:
Ok, thanks a lot

One more question. Im trying to configure as slave a motoG with lineageos rooted (android 10), but when i try to move the app to system folder obtain this error: "failed to move the app to system folder! try manually moving app to /system/priv-app in recovery

Can you tell me more details, exactly what i need to move? And i go to recovery and move, no problem....

Thanks

Hi Emil. I have installed Wifi Launcher for HUR, sellected the car's Bluetooth and selected 'Start tethering' but nothing is happening after connecting to Bluetooth. Is there just the version on xda labs or do I download it from somewhere else? Master - Samsung s7, head unit - Mitsubishi OEM. I have also tried it on Sony XAV-AX100
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LLStarks:
Is there a verifiable way of getting an MK809V? I see so many different offerings with different casings, CPUs (Rockchip vs Amlogic), and apparent rebadging of the MK809IV.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kleanphil:
I'm having trouble finding a reliable source for the MK809V , are there other sticks available that could work , I see a couple on ebay , the X96S 4K HDR TV Stick 4G+32G Android TV Box Dongle Quad Core Dual Wifi BT Player and H96 Pro Android 7.1 Amlogic S905X Quad Core Bluetooth 4.0 Mini TV Stick 2GB+16GB that are readily available , has any one tried ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Buckers1313:
Thanks for the latest update. I'm trying to run the system but having some difficulty doing so.

Master- Note 10+

Slave - Samsung A20

Car- Hyundai Kona

I have installed the HUR on master and Aa gateway on the slave. However slave doesnt have a data sim. Is there a way for my Notes hotspot to be used. The note also connects to the A20 but the dash always says reading device and not showing anything else. Is there something im missing?

Please ignore. I've fp ujnd thè mention the Hyundai have issues. Will look into rooting
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] saspo59:
Hi ,

One fast question what is the direction of the tetring from master to slave or from slave to master?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] charles8814:
Hi. I got a exactly same problem.

Master S10 5g. Android10

Slave Galaxy s7 edge Pie

Car Checy bolt ev

I installed all application on each master and slave and also every setting was properly done.

Master and slave each showed running message on alert bar it seemed ready to start. And it goes very similarlly with beta1.3version however it did not running AA ob master. When master's wifi connected to slave tether HUR, then master phone vibrate two times and blink a Android auton icon on the noti bar once shortly and black screen was blink simutaneously. but immediately Android auto was off and not displaied Android auto connecting setup for new phone of initial connection or anything of android auto on the master.

This happened whatever I trid a root mode nor and non-root mode.

I think it even worse than beta1.3.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] propi62:
There are two variants for specific android versions how it is written in instructions. None of them work for me but in testversion 1.3 it was working.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Can you please send me a bug report from the slave?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
You said you tried in both, root and non-root mode. In non-root mode did the car recognise the slave? Did you see the splash-screen on the car?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
If you are using a phone, you don't necessarily need to move it to the system partition. Being a system app makes sure that it doesn't show the prompt when you first plug it in to the car, if you are using a phone as a slave, you can very easily select the default app. On a TV stick on the other hand where you have no screen in the car that will be almost impossible.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] charles8814:
Yes I tried in both conditions and nothing work.

The car sreens is almost bot response but only one time showes just black screen as like a beta 1.3ver. But it was only one time I am not sure how it came out.

Anyway major problem is that the master phone cannot go into AA mode after detect slave.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
There are some phones where tethering can't be turned on automatically, I think the S7 is one of them. Try to turn on the tethering manually and make sure the headunit server is running. Is the slave running in root on non-root mode?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
What is happening exactly? Can you email me a bug report from the slave please?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
For those looking to buy MK809, I will look at the current alternatives of MK809, like MK809VI, MK809IV, MK809III try to order some and test.

My MK809V is based on Rockchip and looking at the specs most of this devices have the same or very similiar specs so in theory should work, but I don't want to make a promise before I test, so you don't end up spending money for nothing...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
Ok. I'll try that. Slave is in root mode but it is pre pie so I can't use it to tether.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
You can, tethering will work on most devices (not all) including on Pie and 10 (it will need permission to modify system settings), but it will.

I'm more worried that since you are on Pie, the app can't disable the USB as it's suppose to do.

Can you run the following shell commands for me please and check?

su
mount o rw,remount /sys
cat /sys/devices/virtual/android_usb/android0/enable

and tell me the output?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
Sorry Emil. I wish I could. I have stripped the slave so far back i can't load a terminal emulator.

---------- Post added at 11:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:28 AM ----------

If it's any help, I previously had no problem running the original beta. Slave-samsung s5 running cyanogenMod 14.1
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
If previous beta was working fine, try using non-root mode (that will be the equivalent of previous beta)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
Ok. Tried using non root mode and when the master tries to connect to the slave it disables wifi. Also when the usb is plugged in wifi turns off.

---------- Post added at 12:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

I don't suppose you could email to me the original beta so that I have a working verion for my setup? rpgreentree@gmail.com
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
I can and I will, however after changing to non-root mode reboot the slave as a root service will be running on the phone which toggles Wifi on power...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] charles8814:
I have no experience for MK809 so I have a question.

It seems a android stck to connect TV or monitor to runiing simple android without phone. But How I can use it for Android auto slave? I confused it should work with HDMI cable but you know the AA is necessary connect via USB to the car.

Is the MK809 work without HDMI connection but only with USB to the car?

it is j ly few tens dollor so I am willing to buy it. if it working perfectly
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
The tv stick used the HDMI instead of the phone monitor, but for Android Auto we don't need that. All we need is to plug in the phone to the USB, same for the tv stick, HDMI can be ignored, you plug in the OTG port of the tv stick to the car, thats all.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rpgreentree:
Ok. So, now I have AA connecting from the master but as soon as it connects, wifi is disabled on the slave again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Can you send me a bug report from the slave please? sounds like something is crashing behind the scene...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DAVIZINHO:
Can you tell us the procesor, ram and rom of your MK809V?? and i search for a MK809 with similar specifications.

Thanks!

Been trying hard all morning to get this to work, but no luck so far.

Master Xiaomi Mi8 not rooted

Slave Samsung S7 rooted

Car 2016 VAG

I have tried both using root and without. Also tried 3 different ROMs on the s7, but still no luck.

Once I did see the android auto notification pop up on the master, but it soon disconnected.

When using the non rooted method, I get the splash screen but then it soon says disconnected.

When using the root method it seems like the 2 phones never actually connect. I have checked the hotspot is set up with correct details etc.

Is there anything I can do to help? Or anything I can try?

If not will also look into getting a TV stick.

Thanks for your work on this so far.

Edit.... Going to try android 7 on the slave next.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
If the splash screen is gone it means your car does reset the connection.

A few posts back I wrote how to check if the usb can be disabled. Please try those ADB shell commands and get me the output.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Zece-88:
Tried the newest version, no luck

Tested with:

Car system: Pioneer F88-Dab

Another Pixel 2 Xl (Android 10) non rooted.

Car system just showing: Waiting for master to connect
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
with motorola one, android 9, unrooted, as slave using the new AAGateway version, the option:

'Masters phone BT Mac' is greyed out so I cannot select the master BT and probably because of this I cannot get it to work at all.

Using my other slave which is an MK809V, with RK3229 Rockchip CPU, also nothing happened on the car screen.

Both slaves worked with a previous RC1 test version, albeit only with master providing the hotspot.

Master: Asus Zenphone 6 with android 10

Car: Audi A4

If there's anything else I can try. Let me know. Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
OK so USB can be controlled correctly on the slave which is good. Let's try to manually get it going in this case, please use this steps:

1) Master, manually start the Headunit Server

2) Master create a Wifi hotspot

3) Slave connect slave to master hostpot

4) Open AAgateWay, turn off tethering option and select the masters Wifi, leave it in ROOT mode!

5) Exit AAGateWay

6) While the devices are still connected plug in slave to the car, watch both screens to see what's happening.

[MENTION=9760396]martin.armstrong[/MENTION] - Please also give it a go like this as well, using the MK809V in ROOT mode. However in you're case you should do the config with a screen, then go to the car, and plug in the MK809V to the car and start the car, watch the master to see when a device is connected to the hotspot. The boot time for the MK809V is about 30-40 seconds, so keep that in mind, till then you won't see anything on the screen.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
We have had some success!

Using the steps above it works perfectly when I plug in the slave to the head unit.

When disconnecting the master has a notification stating it's still connected to my car.

The only way to then reconnect is to reset both phones and follow the steps above again.

Thanks for the help with this :)

As a side note I have also noticed using a 2.4 GHz hotspot connects considerably faster that a 5Ghz when connecting. It's like then ph9ne searches for all 2.4 wifis before searching for the 5ghz.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
That's a good step forward, now while the devices are still connected, turn off the hotspot on the master. Then turn off the car. Leave it for a few minutes, then turn the car back on and the hotspot back on the master and check if it can reconnect then.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jimsey:
Ive got it working well using the tv stick.as slave and s10 as master in my Peugeot. :)

I'll try again with one of my phones as the slave later, I'll wipe the slave first and install a fresh version of lineage.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
Tried as stated. But no luck.

After turning the car off and disabling the hotspot. Android auto closes in the master as expected.

When going to reconnect I do get a notification on the master stating android auto is connected to the car, but nothing on the head unit. This notification then persists until I reset the phone.

A bit further info that may help (or not)...Before I found this app, I was leaving my S7 in the car (Skoda 2016 VAG) solely for Android auto. I had tasker profiles set up to connect to my actual phones hotspot when usb power was recognised. Rarely did AA boot up straight away, I would normally have to pull the usb and plug it back in and then AA would start. It's like my head unit does not initiate an AA connection when it first turns on and just starts to charge the phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] DAVIZINHO:
Its interesting make a list of the diferent setups:

Works for me:

- Car: Honda Civic Type-R 2018

- Slave: Xiaomi mi5s LineageOS rooted with magisk (Android 9)

- Master: Xiaomi mix2s with MIUI (xiaomi.eu rom) rooted with magisk (Android 10)

Tomorrow i will try to another slave phone
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
That's a topical headunit server stuck, hence the new way of connecting will be preferable.

Is your master rooted by any chance as well, just to test something.

The problem might be caused by the WiFi launcher for HUR.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
Unfortunately it's not, but can look into rooting it if need be. (It's a Xiaomi so I would probably have to wait a couple of weeks before I can unlock the bootloader, unless things have changed since I last looked.)

Should the AA head unit server be running on the master at all times?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
You can leave it on for easier setup but ideally you will want to use the new way of connecting where the slave creates the hotspot and the master connects to it.

Let me try to put together a tasker task which can do the same thing as WiFi launcher for HUR, or an automate flow, so we can test the other way around as well. I'm pretty confident that will allow multiple reconnect without the need of reboot
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
Thanks so much!

Whilst playing around for the last couple of hours I have had 1 successful connection using the new way where the slave starts the tether. This was with the AA head unit server running on the master (not sure that made any difference though), originally I did not have the server running until the further steps you sent earlier.

Won't be able to have another play around till tomorrow afternoon now.

Appreciate all the help!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
If the slave started the tether then the headunit server running made no difference.

If it connected once it should connect multiple times as well.

Tomorrow leave the slave tethering enabled and run it in root mode.

On the master stop the headunit server and reinstall the WiFi launcher for HUR and select the car's Bluetooth.

When in the car, on the master watch and check that it actually connects to the car's BT (some won't!) When it connected to the car's BT watch and check if WiFi launcher for HUR pops up on the notification, once it did pop up on the notification keep watching the master and check when the master drops the WiFi and connects to the slaves WiFi, when that happens you should see a notification about AA on the master and at that stage it should run.

Let me know at which step does it fails.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
Just had a quick go then. BT connects pretty quickly, I then get the WiFi launcher for HUR notification shortly afterwards. Then nothing else happens.

If I check in WiFi settings I can see HUR network avaliable, but it doesn't automatically connect.

I have rechecked the password on the hotspot on the slave for HUR and it's as expected.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Give it time. WiFi launcher for HUR can check for networks once every 30 seconds, if it starts before the slave creates the hotspot it will need to wait for 30 seconds before it can actually scan the WiFi again, then if it detects it in range it will initiate the connection to it.

Another option will be to forget your home WiFi so the slave can quicker connect to the HUR network.

Also double check that WiFi launcher for HUR has all the permission enabled.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
Thanks. All permissions enabled and removed from any battery saving.

Tried waiting for 5 minutes after the notification was present on the master., But still didn't connect.

You have said to remove my home network from the slave so it can connect to the HUR network quicker. Did you mean remove home network from the master? Or am I doing something totally wrong here?

I will try again in the morning now, but have sent a small thank you to your PayPal.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Emil Borconi:
Sorry from the master....

I saw that thank you :)

Maybe it's something on the Xiaomi which doesn't allow the WiFi launcher for HUR to add / connect to the WiFi (miui can be interesting sometimes).

Try to manually connect to the slaves hotspot (while WiFi launcher for HUR is still running)
