I tried on Galaxy S4 and S5 with Magisk 25.2 and Android 11 (Lineage 18.1) but it doesn't work, always black screen appears when you want to open S2A.

Instead putting Android 10 (Lineage 17.1) on the same phones everything works.

I'm still having a problem with Waze not working on Android Auto (black screen, freezes after starting Waze). I'm using a Samsung S7 with Android 8. The last version where Waze worked was Android Auto 7.7, which I can no longer use due to a force update by Google.

Has anyone tried installing Screen2Auto?

Unfortunately it won't load in Android Auto, of course I have unknown sources enabled via developer mode.
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
I definitely prefer non-rooted solution. Someone help me?
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
For Waze you don't need Screen2Auto, AA AIO Tweak, anything

Test with the plain official Android Auto - then if Waze does not work properly, something must be wrong with your (old) ROM
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
AA AIO Tweak requires root or not?

The AA app forced me to update to a newer version (although automatic updates were disabled), or it won´t start. After updating Waze ended in a black screen, not responding to any inputs.

I have official ROM for S7 with Android 8. Everything else works fine in tne newest AA, except Waze.
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Check the AA AIO Tweaker thread.- it says root only

https://xdaforums.com/t/root-only-aa-aio-tweaker-the-ultimate-android-auto-utility.4194239/

I'm not a Sammy user and my phone is on A12
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
Any non-rooted solution available?
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
Try all different install methods and hope that it will run...

From my experience I can't give any other proposal.
[Android Auto General] EdwardGamma:
like I said, latest AA does not support Waze on Android 8 .

The solution is to either upgrade to Android 9 (I'm not willing to because my phone - LG V30- has unlocked bootloader and is rooted) ;

or find a hacked Android Auto that does not force update, which I have not been able to find one.

These have nothing to do with screen2auto to other apps/modules.
[Android Auto General] kentyman:
I'm getting the following warning. Is that expected or is this a real concern? What exactly is Google noticing? Note that I installed Screen2Auto via AAAD:
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
I hope that screen2auto will let me launch Waze.

But I can't install the screen2auto yet, android auto can't see it. I tried AAease 0.6.2
[Android Auto General] EdwardGamma:
does screen2auto run on top of AndroidAuto? If yes, Waze wont work.
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
The problem is that after installing screen2auto it cannot be launched via Android Auto
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
How did you install Screen2Auto?

Easiest way that works with both of my non-rooted phones is to install AAEASE, then open it and install Screen2Auto. If this is what you already did, you might try uninstalling, Android, Auto and screen to auto and starting over, making sure to give all permissions to screen to auto app.

Wasn't clear from your posting but you have to open screen to auto on the phone first and give it permissions before you can use it through Android Auto. Waze is still not going to work in your case though, that's apparently due to Android 8.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
I also got the same following warning, what does it mean ?
[Android Auto General] Brian Casterlin:
Same here on Android 10
[Android Auto General] paul2177:
I have used this procedure, but I don't see Screen2Auto in Android Auto. I'm mainly concerned with Waze, everything else works. With Android 8 is there no chance? In Android Auto 7.7 everything worked, but here you can't use it because of force update from Google.
[Android Auto General] maikeru86:
I've had S2A running quite fine (on A12) until I got this message recently. now S2A launches but none of the apps work.
[Android Auto General] zagl81:
Try turning off Play Protect.
[Android Auto General] maikeru86:
Yeah, I've done that now and I'll try a few things first, just thought I'd mention it.
[Android Auto General] zagl81:
The problem is that the Galaxy S7 Edge is not upgradable to at least Android 10: Lineage no longer supports it since Android 7!

Does anyone have a solution to switch ROMs with Android 10 and Google Apps?
[Android Auto General] Medicina200401:
Hello. I have been using screen2auto for a long time and now the application has disappeared from my screen. I have a moto G6 with android 9. I have reinstalled the application, but it strikes me that after executing it, the wizard does not open where it requested all the necessary permissions. (opens as if all permissions were already set, but they are not) Does this happen to anyone else? Thanks
[Android Auto General] E66666666:
I think that's related to Android / Play Store suddenly seeing it as a malicious application.

Anyone else seeing this? Thought it was a false positive, but Play Store seems pretty insistent on that it's malicious.
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
Can you try to deactivate the Playstore?
[Android Auto General] E66666666:
Play Protect can be turned off, but I just would like to know the root cause (e.g. is screen2auto actually harmful? Or is this expected behavior for a screen mirroring app through unauthorized means)
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
I guess because Google rates every app not installed through Google Play Store as harmful...
[Android Auto General] kentyman:
I don't think that's true, as AAAD and AA Mirror Plus don't trigger it.
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
I have many apps not installed through Playstore and they don't trigger Play Protect issues

But that's the purpose of Play Protect, Google can always blacklist some apps

I don't use S2A anymore but I have no problems with Fermata
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
So what the soultion to screen2auto not to be mark as harmful via play store (beside to mark to untrack apps)
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
I don't think there is another solution.
[Android Auto General] kentyman:
I wish someone could explain why this app has the warning but others do not. I'm starting to worry it actually does contain malware.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Also

Weird that I don't have this issue on my unrooted Pixel 6 Pro on Android 12.

My Play Store is version 34.0.12-21 [0] [PR] 500233025.

Is this an Android 13 issue? I do see that Play Protect Service can be disabled in Settings/Apps or even Uninstalled in the Play Store, would this help at all?
[Android Auto General] kentyman:
I'm guessing it would make the warning go away, but I don't want to just sweep a real problem under the rug. I'd really like to understand if I should be concerned that there's malware.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
I've used Android since the HTC Hero(2009) and have never had a malware issue. That said, I suppose you could install something like Malwarebytes. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.malwarebytes.antimalware

I have a s7edge and screen2auto work on it for 2 years.but not work again 10 days ago.I reinstall system and root my phone. I really want to know the steps you make s2auto work again.need riru-lsposed?use aa aio or aaease? if you have a time,tell me the details.thank you
[Android Auto General] giginogigetto:
i have the solution for screen2auto on unrooted phone

1. instal the basic version of android auto (If android auto is part of andoid system, is necessary uninstall all upgrades in fact andoid auto goes back to version 1)

2.install aaad and then all apps you want for android auto

3. install the latest version of android auto

4.disable playprotect

all works again. on galaxy s22 ultra
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
there is way to see the phone horiziontal on the car screen but in vertical in use at the same time?
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
No, it's not possible.

Only same screen direction is possible.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
I saw that even if the phone is horizontal the mobile on the car is vertical, so what do I miss?

Thank you
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Where did you see that? I have never experienced that and I've been using this app over 2 years.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
In my car MG EHS, maybe it's thing of settings? can you share your settings? mine is default
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Mine is pretty much all default. But there is a screen rotation setting under screen settings in the app.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
this setting was disabled in my app, so maybe this is the solution? now it's on 90 degrees, yours?
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Mine is off. My car screen matches whatever my phone screen shows as far as portrait or landscape.
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
I set it to 90 degrees when Android Auto is connected and then unset the forced rotation once Android Auto is turned off. All of this is achieved through tasker.

Cheers,

B.D.
[Android Auto General] zxxxxx:
thanks
[Android Auto General] zxxxxx:
Could you tell me which Riru code installed on your android 8.0,I have the same problem.thank you!
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
So i disabled the settings like at the first place and now the rotation is according to the phone and after the disconnection of android auto, it still stays rotate...and not according to the phone so that is a problem
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
You have to turn off Autororate with Tasker after changing rotation. This did the trick for me.

You need:

1.Force rotation

2.Wait time of 500ms

3.Autorotate off
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
I use tasker profile to rotate 90 deg when auto android is engaged (enter criteria), and then an exit task to turn off fixed rotation once Android Auto is disengaged (exit criteria).

No wait time for my solution.

Also will definitely give thumbs up for the new AAAIO Tweaker (Shmykelsa)! Works great!

Cheers,

B.D.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
why anyhow I need to use tasker for this? why it not now when the Android auto is disconnected then use the device settings and not rotate ?
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
May be phone type? I've never had to use tasker, mine rotates back to normal. This is on Moto phones, One Plus, and Pixel 6 Pro.
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
Because for me it did not work ;)

With Tasker it worked.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
I have pixel 7 pro and its not rotate back after disconnection from Android auto
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Not sure. I'm assuming you already have Auto rotate On in your phone settings?
[Android Auto General] zxxxxx:
it looks 5.20 Installed on my phone correct,but when I press s2auto ,phone not turn 90 degree and black screen,might some setting need on s2auto.
[Android Auto General] I7210I:
Right
[Android Auto General] tranphu:

Hello to everyone

Although I have used all versions of this beautiful app up to 15 days ago and even put YouTube videos, I cannot use any version right now.

I returned to the factory settings on the phone and car, but it did not improve. In fact, everything is normal image and reflection is also not a problem. but when I touch the vehicle screen, no application opens. This is my problem. It was an application that I used very fondly. Phone S20 ulta android 10

Car screen mib 2.5. I think there is a mismatch in the phone update. I don't know what else can be done to use this app. Sorry for bad english.

Just an improvement for us that still use archaic mph. :silly:

Samsung Galaxy s7 lineageOs rooted. Aaease stuck on installing screen2auto. Any advices?

If I need to install it manually then should I use aa aio tweaker? And what exact steps I need to do in AA aio tweaker?

P.S. by installing screen2auto manually I am getting Google play security warnings and suggestions to uninstall. And it does not show in Android auto apps even after executing aa unlock
[Android Auto General] tsilva30:
not working. S22
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
Just one question: is it perhaps caused by Coolwalk that S2A does not work?
[Android Auto General] vukis:
Probably. I started getting black screen in screen2auto.

So I updated everything: Android auto, magisk, screen2auto, aaease, AA aio tweaker.

Now I have Android auto with a cool walk and cannot get back screen2auto to appear in my Android auto apps list. With all of the updated and previously mentioned applications.

Also screen2auto is marked as malicious and constantly pinging me to uninstall it. Disabling play market security does not resolve that.

I still managed to get fermata to the android auto apps list by following this manual:

Fermata Auto stopped working · AndreyPavlenko Fermata · Discussion #122

mine worked until " i guess " this week. now app works on phone but NOT in car / android auto. keeps . 2022 Hyundai palisade. worked great 1st week or so. now NO app works correctly from AAAD . car...

github.com

Uses magisk with zygisk enabled and lsposed module which have fermata module.

Still would like to have screen2auto. Tried some contact options, but it all redirects to Russian speaking communities which asks to delete messages in English
[Android Auto General] zxxxxx:
it looks work hard🤣
[Android Auto General] albenex:
for me AAEASE is a no go as it returns error 500 while trying to download.

installing S2A manually also using tips shared on previous posts didn't help me.

XZ1c, A9 Stock + Magisk 25.2 + AA AIO Tweaker + latest AA

instead, LSPOSED + Fermata module worked at first try.

in the past I got S2A working on same phone by using LOS 17.1 but seems there are issue for latest versions on AA USB connection so I have to stick to stock for a while.

anyway I think everybody would love an universal and easy way to install S2A on rooted phone, just like as did for Fermata Auto
[Android Auto General] SOFO888:
That means it still works with Coolwalk?
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
S2A is still working for me with coolwalk. I've had coolwalk enabled for a few months now and had no issues with S2A.

Cheers,

B.D.
[Android Auto General] vukis:
Are you up for an risky experiment? Try clearing Android auto data and then try adding S2A icon to Android auto again? :-)

If you succeed then I would like to know exact steps which you followed
[Android Auto General] BostonDan:
I am not up for this on my main phone because Google keeps changing things and I am in a good steady state. However, if I get a chance, I will try on an older phone in the near future and let you know the results.

Cheers,

[Android Auto General] albenex:
i too would be interested on your setup / steps followed to have S2A working on newest AA.
[Android Auto General] Tomasz_RS:
I have xperia xz1 root. I installed Screen2auto with AAAD apk. It has been working without any problems for several months. AAEase does not install any applications, it just displays the message:

"Server returned HTTP 500". Even reloading the original stock ROM A9, changing magisk, restoring factory settings did not help. Nothing. Previously, AAEase worked on one of the first versions. Interestingly, on unrooted xperia 1 everything works.
[Android Auto General] vukis:
O.k. I think I got it. For my case Aaease was downloading screen to auto but froze during installation. Android system complaining that screen2auto is malicious and it was not displaying in Android auto app list

So my steps:

Uninstall screen2auto

Clear data for Android auto

Launch Android auto, enable developer options. Go in developer options and enable unknown sources

Open any better file explorer internal storage/android/data/ru.inceptive.aaease/files/InceptiveStory/apks/s2a.apk (most likely it got downloaded there via aaease but install not finished).

Copy s2a.apk to more accessible location like downloads

Open aaease -> settings -> automatic way with no root -> select s2a.aok from downloads

Let it finish installing and launch screen2auto. Accept all permissions

Open android auto->customize launcher and confirm, that screen2auto is present there
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Still working for me after I got Coolwalk yesterday. Pixel 6 Pro unrooted. Android 12.

Installed S2A with AAEASE last April. No other apps used. Haven't had to reinstall through multiple Android Auto updates.
[Android Auto General] zxxxxx:
Aease 500 error,same on my phone. I reinstall and root my phone near 30 times,nouseful.now I get it,I find another 0.62 aaease download last year.delete aaease0.62 date,cache and Uninstalle it on my phone now,and install the old one 0.62 download last year ,it work right.but screen not work on my car screen ,just black after press the icon on aa.

Odd, I just started getting this notification today after using Screen2Auto for years. Pixel 6 Pro unrooted on Android 12.

I disabled Play Protect in the Play store and will see if I get it again.

Edit:Still got the notification with Play Protect disabled.

Went to Settings/Apps/Google Play Store and forced close, clear data.

This removed Screen2Auto message under Play Protect settings. I'll see if the message pops up again.

I don't understand, I installed the new version but since then, Screen2auto doesn't work anymore, it doesn't display anymore :( Does anyone have any information about this problem?

I'm still on an older version, version 3.6.3, and everything's working.

[Android Auto General] tosonny:
What the hell is Google doing again. I unfortunately did an update of Android Auto. As I have seen that Screen2auto isn't shown anymore I reverted to an older version. I set the permission of the known folders and files to "read only", but it does not help. After a very short while the file have again the default permissions and S2A dissappears. Holy cow I hate Google.

Folks, any idea?
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Did you install with AAEASE?
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
I'm on Android Auto version 8.8.630424-release, Screen2Auto (3.6.3) still working. Unrooted Pixel 6 Pro.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Disable Play Protect in Google Play Store. Clear data in Google Play Store.
[Android Auto General] tosonny:
Yes. everything is as before the update.
[Android Auto General] tosonny:
deleted
[Android Auto General] tosonny:
As I wrote above Google again finds a way to change our system (S2A disappears).

Both folders are set to "read only":

/data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype

/data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/shared_prefs

S2A is showing ...and disappears after a while.

Do you have again a solution?
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Nope. Stopped using S2A a year ago. I use Fermata and it works with the latest AA (just updated)
[Android Auto General] italodance:
Possible to set full screen display without root?!
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
If you mean Remove the AA bar at the bottom, I don't think so.
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Is Fermata just a media player?

Can't open apps like CinemaHD, IPTV players, Torque Auto app? Root required?
[Android Auto General] gullzway:
Mine fills the screen on my unrooted Pixel 6 Pro, other than the AA status bar at the bottom.

Edit: Got a Play Protect warning when I opened S2A, Even though I disabled it and no longer get the notifications.
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
Correct

I don't understand,

Samsung S8+ android 9

Android Auto 8.8.6304

Screen2auto 3.6.4

AA tweaker 5.2

I install :

Android auto, I activate the debug mode and unconfirmed sources.

I install Aa Aio tweaker and I patch the apps (screen2auto)

I restart

I launch SC2Auto to activate the permissions

I launch Android auto, but no SC2Auto...

I tried in every possible way, impossible to make SC2A work ?
