hello i want to try to install s2a on my redmi note 8 pro no ROOT (with android 11) everything is fine but when i run app i have black screen on AA.

I can't find how to allow screenshot on this smartphone

anyone know how we do it?

thank you
[Android Auto General] hamich:
You must confirm all permission for screen2auto in settings-aplication-screen2auto-permission
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
Ok...but all permission for screen2auto are confirmed ans S2A don't work (S2A is ok but when i launch a apk ...black screen)
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
I am looking for an owner of a xiaomi with android 11 (not root) who manages to make S2A work.

I can't do it, S2A works but when I launch an app it starts on the phone but on the head unit I have a black screen, just the return button is here and work ...

Thanks for your help..
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
I have exactly the same, but on the rooted Mi 9T, Xiaomi.eu, A11

I even use repackaged S2A that was provided yesterday here. With AA 7.0.164 (today Playstore notifies about 7.1.164 but I didn't updte)
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
I believe the problem is with "screenshot" but I cannot find this permission ..
[Android Auto General] ivandena:
It works!!! Great!!

Thx you!
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
I think it's because of the screen sharing which is only done by wifi
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
I think it's a problem with the screen sharing
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
When you open S2A on AA, you have to quickly confirm the screen sharing on the phone. If you are too slow, it does not work. You have to do it every time you want to use S2A. Try that.

If it works, you can adjust the rights for screen sharing with ADB so that you don't have to confirm the screen sharing on the phone any more.
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Please, what exactly is the ADB command?

[Android Auto General] sonyericsucks39:
Thanks for this, but can you explain exactly how you changed the name of the apk using luckypatcher? Unfortunately, I can't use Screen2Auto because it slows and/or bootloops every phone I use it on, so I'm still using AA Mirror. I tried to clone the app and changed the name of a file, but it still isn't available on the car screen.

--Solved--

May only need Root Explorer to edit the files/apk, but I could be wrong...
[Android Auto General] Piobog:
Hello try this sollution.

When you connect your phone to the car and lunch s2a you should see the s2a menu on your car screen. Tap on settings and then restart. It works for me.
[Android Auto General] thivamero:
dont work
[Android Auto General] madxxcow:
Worked for two days, but now the screen2auto icon disappeared. Package name is ru.inceptive.screentwoaotq
[Android Auto General] aringler:
For my site: with the changed package name, the icon is still shown.

But when I'm in the car and want to start S2A, it's getting force closed..?!

Didn't happen any time before..
[Android Auto General] tensux:
i am having the same issue with one phone (while it works fine on another phone) S2A force closes every time I I try to open it in android auto while connected to the car. I have tried to reinstall everything several times and get the same result. From what i can see all permissions and settings are the same on both phones.
[Android Auto General] giginogigetto:
i think to have found a solution cloning installed apps

Install or run LUCKY PATCHER.

find and Select screen2 auto

then click on intruments (in italian strumenti)

Then click on clone app

After cloning it asks if you want to install the clone

Clik install clone and pooffffff.........on android auto screen2auto appears again.

Naturally you must reconfigure again tje app but is visible on androi auto starting apps
[Android Auto General] josef.fanta:
Thanks, it works,

App is visible on AA screen, but cannot be launched...

The same for AA Mirror

Edit: It is due to Android 12....
[Android Auto General] giginogigetto:
for me works. This is my configuration

Phone is galaxy s9+ rooted with magisk 23 and SUconnector plugin installed

Android auto 7.0.614134

screen2 auto 3.4.6

fermata auto 1.8.9

all works perfectly

Naturally i have uninstalled previous "original apps" unrecognized by google and works only with cloned apps.
[Android Auto General] nismok11:
Works for me, thanks
[Android Auto General] BrianRC:
This worked for me. Except, with Lucky Patcher version 9.8.2, I selected Tools (not instruments) and under Clone application, I accepted the default mode which was "Modify AndroidManifest.xml, resources and classes.dex". Thanks!
[Android Auto General] forumi0721:
Hi,

Is S2A support Android 12?

3.6.2 shows A12 support, but I can't run it in A12.

In Andorid 11 Works good, but android 12 not working.

Crash on projection.

Install History

Android Auto 7.0.614104-release (Magisk Detach Module)

S2A 3.6.2 Rename (Installed with vending, Kinginstaller)

and set permission `adb shell appops set [pkg] PROJECT_MEDIA allow`

=> Shows in AA launcher

Android 11 -> Works good

Android 12 -> Crash

PocoF1, PocoF3 Same result (A11 Works, A12 Crash)
[Android Auto General] Tiemichael:
Hi,

just to confirm - did you detach AA using Detach3 via Detach.cfg in Detach.zip as 'com.google.android.projection.gearhead' ?

I have not tried it yet, but try to avoid unpleasant surprises

Thanks
[Android Auto General] Rasec2002:
Here is another one that solved the disappearance of S2A by cloning the app using Lucky Patcher. I installed the cloned app and disabled the previous S2A version. (y)

AA AIO Tweaker: 4.0.2

Android Auto: 7.0.614134

mediaProjection needs permission and FOREGROUND_SERVICE (before projection start)

1. permission

AndroidManifest.xml show this permission.

2. A12 need foreground service before start projection.

(I'm not sure)

This may be incorrect (I'm not a Android Developer),

But please check this point

I just tried this app but it doesn't show on aa. I tried both ways, installing by AAAD and by adb commands from the site. In both ways it installed successfuly but no luck on aa.

I run flos 18.1 A11 on redmi 3s 2gb ram with microg, no root.

I run all the permissions on aa and s2a but still nothing... Maybe some weird option?

Anyone can help?

See discussion (last two days) in the other XDA thread:

[ROOT ONLY] AA AIO TWEAKER - The ultimate Android Auto Utility​
[Android Auto General] Tiemichael:
I successfully installed S2A (following the instructions in the previous posts) and it's working!

But most of the time after connecting to the car and opening AA and S2A - when opening an app (eg TomTom) the screen turns black with only the Touch-Button visible.

I have to go back to S2A menu (2-finger click), go to S2A settings and restart S2A - only then the app becomes visible.

Once this is done, everything works fine.

Any idea what's the issue?

(using a Poco F2 Pro, with stock Android 11, Miui 12.5, rooted)

[Android Auto General] thenextman:
Here's the easy fix:

The developer of Screen2Auto created an app called AA Ease that manages the S2A installation process and automatically changes the package name for you, which allows it to re-appear in Android Auto. It works well and is available here from the Screen2Auto developer's site:

AA Ease

(note that this site is in the Russian language, so google translate may be necessary for english speakers)
[Android Auto General] madxxcow:
I'm using AA 7.1.something and the S2A icon is not showing up after following the usual steps...
[Android Auto General] wyt18:
AA Ease worked for me. But only when using a wired AA connection. When paired with AA Gateway (slave and master), S2A no longer works smoothly like it did on AA 6.7
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Nothing new. For example, look at the post post right before yours. There are also some other/older posts above about the workariunds

E g , for me, after repckging S2A and cleaning phenotype.db/Flags of the lines with:

the S2A works perfectly again

Is there a solution to get Neflix and Prime to show video? The Apps are working, but i just get the audio, the screen shows a black screen, not the right video.

[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Do you have the same problem (black screen in the car, only audio) when opening other apps from S2A or only with Netflix (and Prime)?

I had with all apps and got it fixed by running the script from post #416 from the XDA AA AIO Tweaker thread (root and AA AIO Tweaker are needed):
[Android Auto General] nicht:
Youtube is working fine. Just Netflix and Prime doesnt work. Other apps i didnt try...

[Android Auto General] gullzway:
That's DRM copyright protection. Doesn't allow video when screen casting/mirroring. Not going to happen.

Just get the Cinema HD app.
[Android Auto General] RKCRLR:
I was using S2A on an unrooted Galaxy S7 with Android 8 which I installed using the ADB method.

Will AA Ease work on an unrooted phone?
[Android Auto General] thenextman:
Did Screen2Auto work for you previously? I was under the impression that root IS required to use Screen2Auto, whether it's installed by AA Ease or by any other method.
[Android Auto General] RKCRLR:
Yes, S2A worked in general. The touch responses were inconsistent but I only use S2A for a single, non-video app.

How did you do the install?

I downloaded and sideloaded AAEase, and then installed S2A from AAEase. AAEase had me uninstall S2A prior to the new S2A installation.

However, S2A is not showing up in AA as an available app. I've tried rebooting the phone.

Could someone repost this? The transfer has expired.

Thanks, that worked!

As a data point, I was using S2A on my unrooted Galaxy S7 (Android 8) . I had installed it using the ADB method. Then it stopped working due to the latest problems.

I tried using AAEase to install S2A but S2A didn't show up in AA.

I installed the patched version of S2A posted above using the ADB method and it works again. I haven't used it again extensively so there may be problems. Now I just need to remember all my S2A settings.

Yes, Netflix does not allow casting (to AA).

I have DRM L1 on the phone and I even tried by enabling Fix Netflix option in S2A, Other Settings, but no avail.

Once started to play, audio goes to car speakers and Netflix controls are visible in the car but video is only on the phone

Btw, Netflix similarly does not allow Screenshots when playing. Tried with various patches for Secure screenshots, they enable screenshots for other apps that otherwise block screenshots (like Chrome in Incognito mode), but not for Netflix.

At best, Rated 13 and so can be screenshotted but not the Netflix video

Hello. I have a samsung S7 with android 8, which I rooted with magisk. I am trying AA 7.1. First I installed the magisk 23 version and when I remembered it did not work with that version I put the 20.4 again using TWRP. I have used the AAEasy and the AAIOTweaker, but have not been able to get S2auto to appear in AA. The Fermata Control app does appear in AA. What could be the problem? In another phone that had it working, update everything and it works correctly. Thanks Alexander

With a rooted phone there are some additional options, like Magisk SU-Connector module (page 67).

For those who have problems with AA try removing the current version of AA and installing the ver. 6.9.
[Android Auto General] makes2068@gmail.com:
Everything is fine now with AA.

But using screen 2 auto, no touch Response inside any app.

The screen 2 Auto Launcher responses.

Any hidden setting I should do?
[Android Auto General] Anton_Chigurh:
Or using alternative touch and select one of three profile (in other settings), everytime you try to change profile, you remember to stop acessibility service (and restart after modify), or flashing SU_Connector module in Magisk.
[Android Auto General] makes2068@gmail.com:
Tested any possible touch setting without success.

And magisk only works on rooted devices I think.

My mobile is not rooted.

Conclusion, not working without root and with my mobile and car setting.

What to set in the accessibility service?
[Android Auto General] Anton_Chigurh:
You can find it on your settings on android.... Open settings and find accessibilty, you must find screen2auto.
[Android Auto General] makes2068@gmail.com:
Found and granted.

This has to be unmarked and marked again after every change of touch profile?
[Android Auto General] Anton_Chigurh:
Yep
[Android Auto General] makes2068@gmail.com:
Hooray it works with profile 3.

Last challenge is the touch delay and the poor resolution of the most apps.

I think, this can not be handled without root.

And the apps aren't made for AA, so...

Thanks to all.

Haven't tried(got all the way to renaming) because I just used AAEASE. But it looks like you can just use a Root Explorer app and go to Root/data/apps and rename the S2A app there. Would be much easier.

[Android Auto General] tiho5:
This is one of the most desired apps and solutions. One that brings up immense possibilities. Much more than most average apps. Because it brings the whole world of Android over to a whole new place.

In relation to the recent problems, it is hopefully time for someone to step up and post a tutorial of how to avoid the problems and make it work. I sure hope screen2auto lives on.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Non rooted will require installing S2A using adb commands on a P.C.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Solution is to use AAEASE on developers website to install S2A. It changes the name of the installed app so Google doesn't block it.
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
Ok, so I have S2A installed and working. Anyone know how I can change the package information for other packages that use to be able to be displayed in AA as an app (music app) but now are blacklisted, similar to S2A? It's frustrating cause I use to be able to control and listen to music in one music app, but now I can only control it thru S2A with screen inputs instead of the steering wheel seek forward/back, or even see the next queued up song.

Any assistance is appreciated.
