A big thanks to [MENTION=9484260]kt0516[/MENTION] for landing me his orange Pi zero 2 board, as mine still haven't arrived from China, he willingly posted it his to me and should be here in 2 days. So while I'm still really busy, with my other project, I do hope that next week I can do some test with the board and have some updates for you guys.

Anybody who is using using AA version 5.. and cannot get AAGateway to work I would suggest trying older versions of AA. Having successfully got AAGateway working previously it suddenly stopped working and I only got it to work again by working backwards through the AA versions to 4.8. Don't go back to 4.7 because it supposedly had problems with the head unit server.

With Android 10 I successfully uninstalled it and installed an older version using adb after having downloaded older versions to my laptop from apkmirror.com. The commands that worked with my phone were the following:

uninstall:

adb shell pm uninstall -k com.google.android.projection.gearhead

install downloaded AA from APK:

adb install <location of apk on PC>

NB. after having installed the older version of AA there was no icon displayed (it probably reappears if you update it using play store) but it is not needed because the settings can be run from Settings/Apps/Android Auto/Additional settings in app.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JohnnyCanuck:
Thanks for the idea, but no go. I tried both with the intent and using WiFi launcher. Still getting AA closing after a few seconds.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] JohnnyCanuck:
Is your A8 rooted?

Make sure you have "Start Tethering" off if you're using your A8 as the slave ... that should prevent it from turning off your WiFi. You do need system permissions enabled to work.

HUR Wifi Connection Error

hello there, I have this error message when I am trying to connect via Wifi. Anybody here willing to help?

Error while connecting to AA: failed to connect to /192.168.43.1 (port 5277) from /192.168.43.101 (port 50302) after 2000ms: IsConnected failed: ECONNREFUSED (Connection refused)

Here is my setup

My phone is on Android 10, thus I don't have the AA app anymore in the phone.

Phone Hotspot and Bluetooth both connected to Head Unit. Clicked to open HUR app thereafter.

Error message appears when I click the large Wifi logo.

I am able to connect without any problems when using USB cable.

My phone's hotspot is in the same network, 192.168.43.1, also mentioned in the error message already.

You say that on master AAGateway is not installed which is correct but you should have either WiFi launcher or some other method of initiating AA connection on the master (using tasker or macrodroid) otherwise AA will not be started. See page 1 of forum for Operating instructions.

---------- Post added at 09:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:37 AM ----------

I would point out that on an android 10 phone even if no AA icon appears in list of apps it is still present and the settings can be called up under settings/apps/Android Auto/advanced settings.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kelvin1512:
I can pull up Android Auto settings, but that's pretty much all I can do.

My phone is Android 10, my HUR is Android 9. I cannot get them to connect via Wifi to launch AA in my car.

I have tried the recommended steps too, but it still does not work.

Phone runs PIE or higher

Install Wifi Launcher for HUR on the phone ( https://labs.xda-developers.com/stor...launcherforhur )

Open the app and select the car's BT adaptor from the list (make sure phone is NOT connected to the car's BT, but BT is enabled!)

Headunit is running Android 8.0 or higher

Enable incoming connection in HUR settings, and make sure Create Wifi Hotspot option is also ENABLED

When prompted open tethering settings and manually set the hotspot name to HUR and the password to AndroidAutoConnect

Restart HUR

Just arrived MK809V_4K (lollipop), connected to hdmi monitor, connected to master (Lenovo P2 Android 7 stock). Installed XDA Labs, then installed latest beta of aagateway, given all requested permissions and also say yes when it ask to move to system dir. When I open aagateway app I can see a menu with some options and after few seconds (maybe 3 seconds) the app closes automatically, I don't know why. I can't read all the options or select it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
You should be able to alter the settings after toggling the power to the stick. Make sure you give AAGateway root permission, you should see message confirming that.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
I assume you know that this post is in the AAGateway forum. It sounds like a problem with head unit reloaded.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Marshy33:
As you have an audi, it may be a case that this will only work if the slave is rooted.

I also have a VAG and when using non root mode, I will see the splash screen for about 2 seconds on the headunit and then it will disconnect. The only way I can connect is through root mode with a rooted slave.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] kelvin1512:
Hi everyone, I have managed to get it to work already via Wifi. I realised my script does not work in trying to start AA automatically. I have to manually start AA Server. No idea why......
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pxperiano:
I successfully opened the app and now I can access to settings. AAGateway has root permissions.

But when I connect it to my Mazda MX5 unit nothing happens.

On Lenovo P2 (master) with Android 7.0 stock (not rooted) I enabled developer mode in AA and started headunit server. I have the hotspot on and I see the slave (MK809V_4K lollipop) is connected to my master hotspot. I'm not using WifiLauncherforHUR (is this step mandatory?), I enable hotspot on my own before turning on my car. The master is connected to MX5 through Bluetooth.

The slave is connected to MX5 through a usb cable connected to DC usb connector (this is a working data cable, when I use it to connect my Android phone it works fine). The MK809V_4K blue led is on.

The MX5 does not "see" the slave. I don't see any usb unit in music settings, the flag "android auto" is off in settings (it becomes on when I connect an Android phone). The master does not ask to connect to Android Auto wirelessly (I think the master should "see" the Android Auto wireless - that is Android Auto Gateway - and should ask me if I want to use it, right?)

Where can I check if I missed some step? Is there a step-by-step guide?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
The detailed instructions are on page 1 of forum. Case 1 (slave providing hotspot) is more likely to be successful normally (but later I noted that you have android 7 master so case 1 is not possible) Need WiFi launcher to trigger the AA connection unless you do it using an automation app like macrodroid or tasker.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pxperiano:
I use tasker and it works like a charm. I tried these connections:

- HDMI to monitor

- DC microusb to power

- microusb to my notebook

- usb to mouse

I started hotspot on master

My notebook does not detect MK809V, it ignores the device, I can't see it in my computer. By the way, in MK809V settings, in the USB panel, I see "Connect to PC" is not flagged (and I leave it so because in the guide there is nothing about this option).

This is what I see in the HDMI monitor: after about 1 minute I can read an notify message "superuser allowed AAGateway to open a shell" (sorry I don't remember the right words). If I check WiFi in MK809V I can see it enables for just few seconds, then it automatically disables itself, then again automatically enable itself and so in an infinite loop (is AAGateway mastering wifi settings? And why it connect/disconnect?)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
Have you set the toggle for TV stick in AAGateway? This should ensure that WiFi on stick stays on. The "connected to pc' toggle is automatically set by AAGateway during the connection process. When connected to pc you need to set the toggle manually for pc to see the stick.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pxperiano:
During the trip from work to home AAGateway worked. For the first time. I simply disabled all bluetooth connection on my master (except phone calls) and I changed the usb connector, I did not use the DC microusb but the other one. It worked for 15 minutes more or less, it worked very well, then I tried vocal commands and it crashed. After that, it always crashed and I can't get it working anymore. It's always the same problem:

1) my master shows a device is connected to master hotspot

2) after 3 seconds more or less, my car shows android auto flagged (that is when an android auto device is connected)

3) after 1 or 2 seconds, my car unflag android auto checkbox and my phone shows noone is connected to hotspot

4) after 1 second all this start again from point 1)

I connected the MK809V to my tv and I checked the tv stick option but nothing changed. Is there a way to extract logs and send them to you?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] morpho26:
Is there a possibility to update or customize with Rom, the MK809V.

I found some Stock Roms for Rockchip 3229 processor like for example ugoos Am6. But not sure about compatibly.

I got my MK809 but recognized that sometimes i lost randomly connection either Wifi or USB, so thats the reason why i hope to find a image to perform a reflash.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martin.armstrong:
Possibly the only person who could help is Emil Borconi, the app developer, but he has very little time at the moment. Also I don't know whether you can generate a debug report with a TV stick. You can try emailing him direct. He does not have time to read the forum at the moment. Click on his name in one of his forum posts to send a direct email.

Just arrived my Mk809V device and using case 3 works very well.

Only problem is that this device seams to be very slow, much slower than my old slave phone. So I get slow maps and chunk music. But its the best scenario until now.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] alderon666:
Hi all,

I have few questions, that I didn't find answers (or to lazy to read all pages, sorry).

1. Do we need WiFi Launcher app? Or it's just enough if I manually switch on WiFi when I'm in the car?

2. Can I get any other version of AA Gateway somehow? On XDALabs only 2.08 is available, but people says this version doesn't work for them while 2.04 or 2.06 worked. I would like to try other versions.

3. I have this configuration:

Slave: HTC 10 with android 8.0 - rooted

Master: Xiaomi Mi 9t pro with android 10 (MIUI) - no root

Car Headunit: Kia Ceed 2019

WiFi Lanucher doesn't start when I connect to car's bluetooth. AA Gateway seems to switch on Hot Spot or WiFi (depends on settings), but I can't connect with a car in any way. Nothing is happening on master phone.

The only thing that was kind of close is this:

On slave: tethering OFF.

On master: I plugged to the car to open android auto settings (I have no Android Auto icon in app list, is this a bug or it's new google policy?) and switch on Media Server.

After that, while on master phone I had Media Server running, I plugged slave to the car. Slave switched on wifi and tried to connect to master's hot spot with success. On master I got notification: Android Auto is running... , but I have nothing on car's headhunit and Android Auto icon in the car is grayed out.

If anyone could give me any suggestions I would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Regards.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ci6i:
Also, for Alderon666

It works on Kia Proceed 2019 with 7" headunit (without navigation).

My config: master = LG G8s - Android 9, without root; slave = Xiaomi Redmi 4X, Android 7.1.2 MIUI 11 rooted, and AAwifigateway 2.0.6 without tethering, installed as system app.

Steps: Enable Bluetooth, hotspot and start AA server on master; start car engine; wait for phone to connect via BT to car; after phone icon is enabled on car headunit, connect slave's usb to car (this will enable wifi on slave); after slave connect to master via wifi, there is a notification on car headunit about "Reading media usb..." and after this, Android Auto is active on headunit.

I bought 2 second hand TV sticks (Android 5.1 and Android 7.1.2) but none of them works; I get Android Auto connected car notification on master every time but nothing happens on car headunit, no matter what configuration i tried. (i guess Android 5 stick is broken). I had all the problems/bugs written on this topic starting version 2.0 of AAwifigateway.

Hints , also discussed here: usb debugging off in developper settings; in car profile from BT settings, enable only "Call audio" and disable "Media", give AAwifigateway all permissions/notifications/powersave exclusions on slave.

Hope this helps,
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] alderon666:
Thanks, I will definitely try that. I have headunit without navigation. Maybe Android 9 would be better than 8 on slave :/ The problem is my slave has broken touch (screen is working, but not response to touch).

After I install AAwifigateway and change it to "install as system app" my slave phone will restart and that's it. AAwifigateway is gone from the phone. I'm not sure, what I'm doing wrong here (or it's just some bug).

Anyway, I have now few things to try and see what will happen.

Thanks.

Regards.

It's a bug.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pxperiano:
I think I got a bug in AAgateway 2.08 beta (case 3 scenario).

I tried several times and AAgateway always works only if hotspot is active on master before power on my car. If I enable hotspot on master after my car is on, I always get the same problem:

1) my master shows a device is connected to master hotspot

2) after 3 seconds more or less, my car shows android auto flagged (that is when an android auto device is connected)

3) after 1 or 2 seconds, my car unflag android auto checkbox and my phone shows noone is connected to hotspot

4) after 1 second all this start again from point 1)

This is a problem because I can't be sure hotspot is on (on master) before powering up my car (or at least as soon as it starts up): if I use Tasker and I create a profile to activate hotspot when connected (or I'm near) to car bluetooth it could take too much time. I just installed WiFi Launcher and I'll test it in the next hours, maybe it's faster then Tasker.

But I also think this is a "simple" bug to fix in AAGateWay.

I want wireless Android Auto in my Mazda cx-30. I have a galaxy S10 Phone and want to buy a slave to use this solution with. At home I have an amazon fire tv Stick (2nd Generation I think).

Would this one work as a slave or what other slave can be recommended that works with the least hassle?

Also is this solution working flawlessly at all or still has too many problems?

Thanks in advance!

"Internet Connection not Strong Enough at this Time"

Only when using message applications, like viber or whatsapp.

It looks like an Android Auto bug. Any one got this?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] alderon666:
Seems like that didn't work for me neither. I installed AAGW, changed to NON-Root option to ON (it asked for root permission o.0) I granted it, then I changed back NON-Root to OFF. Restart AAGW, restart system (I had pop up message from AAGW about restarting and OK button) manually. Restart system again. No more AAGW installed...

This was tested on version 2.0.

I still have the same error, no matter what I try - nothing appear on car's headunit, but on master I get notification that Android Auto is running.

I'll try to install some custom rom on slave (HTC 10) to check if I'll succeed on Android 9.

Regards.

Alderon666
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ci6i:
You can ask Emil for different versions of the app. Also, if you have root, you don't have to check the "NON-root" option within the app settings.

After fresh install of AAgw on slave, a system message pop-up to move the app to system in order to allow usb permissions. Here you have to choose NO first time (so do not move it to system yet), restart phone and second time choose YES, to move it to system apps, then restart phone again. Basically, You have to restart phone first time with AAgw installed as a user app, and then move it to system app and restart again.

At least this is how it worked on my phone. If i remember correctly, someone said a month ago it restarted 5 times his phone/stick before it worked ... you can look back on thread.

Still no luck with connecting aagateway and my cars headunit. Knowing that its possible with korean cars i'll keep trying.:)

I notice that i need the enable "car mode" on my phone with a cabled connection. Is it possible that the mk809V is missing "car mode" when aagatway is running?

"Car mode" is enabled automatically on

phone after successfull connection with car headunit. Don' t worry about car mode on stick. The stick/slave needs only AAgw app to route data received from wifi to usb port.

Android Auto not starting on master

Hi all,

I have successfully installed AAGW on a Nexus 5X as a slave. It successfully connects to my car and it shows "Car connection established". The phone is not rooted and I had to uninstall to get to the menu of AAGW (before uninstall and reinstall I could only see the start screen).

My master is a Pixel 3.

I tried both tethering on the slave and the master and I manually make sure one is connected to the other's WiFi hotspot, but the master never starts Android Auto and the slave is just sitting there connected to the car doing nothing.

On the master I tried manually starting the head unit server, but nothing seems to do the trick.

One note: AAGW did not list my master's BT so I manually entered the MAC address of the master.
