Hi,

I need help.

I install with sucess adb and then don´t now what to do.

"Open console and run the commands" - where? In the PC or mobile? And how i open an console in the PC or mobile?

Sorry, but i´m a basic expert.

Thanks

Installing from PC (adb utility is required):

Install adb - https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

Connect device to USB

Open console and run the following commands:

adb push fermata-XXX-auto-universal-armXX.apk /data/local/tmp/fermata.apk

adb shell pm install -i "com.android.vending" -r /data/local/tmp/fermata.apk

adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/fermata.apk
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
In the PC. At the above link (https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/) there is an instruction how to open the command prompt.
[Android Auto General] Pedro_M:
Thanks for your anwser.

I did phone setup and Windows setup ADB with success. The problem is the next step: "Open console and run the commands...". I don´t now how/where to do it.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
From the link above:

Then open up a Command Prompt from the same directory as this ADB binary. This can be done by holding Shift and Right-clicking within the folder then click the “Open command window here” option. (Some Windows 10 users may see “PowerShell” instead of “command window”.)

There is also a screenshot.
[Android Auto General] taskom:
Any video with steps for ADB

Or a tutorial with photos would be welcome !!!
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Finally, there is an easy way to install without root and adb - https://xdaforums.com/t/app-6-0-no-...ourite-apps-on-android-auto-painfree.4270013/

Sorry for my bad english
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
The minimum supported version is Android 6.
[Android Auto General] Mork81cesarini:
The error is this, can i solve in any way or not . I'm in stuck .
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Try to install it manually from Github - https://github.com/AndreyPavlenko/Fermata/releases . If it works, then contact the AAADL author.
[Android Auto General] Mork81cesarini:
Yep, i install the apk with adb or not with the normal installation??? With adb can i bypass AAADL in a device not rooted??? Sorry for a lot of question . Many thanks.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Yes, you can use adb to install on a non-rooted device. The instruction is in the head of this thread.
[Android Auto General] Konstantin_:
Good evening. The app is super! Is it possible to update the web browser?

Oh! I checked video playlist and now i can see the video on my phone with fermata auto, but in the car i only can reproduce the sound whitout the video
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
You need to install the Github version of the player, as described in the head of this thread.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Use this installer - https://xdaforums.com/t/app-6-0-no-...ourite-apps-on-android-auto-painfree.4270013/
[Android Auto General] davostoff:
I have followed the following steps, installing the latest version of github

Hi @Andrey Pavlenko, nice work with this app! Sadly, I'm getting an infinite loading spinner when I launch the app in AA (permissions have been granted)
[Android Auto General] OldRider91:
How can I get the AA SDK for developing a custom app or support other projects? Is there a hidden guide for AA development? Thank you!
[Android Auto General] Hole_12:
Use the recommended installer: from AAAD, install Fermata Auto, then Fermata Control, now I have Fermata Auto and Fermata Control on the device, in Android Auto in the car only Fermata Control appears, the videos on the mobile with Fermata Auto are fine, but in the car only audio video only small fixed icon. Am I doing something wrong?

Use el instalador recomendado: desde AAAD, instale Fermata Auto, despues Fermata Control, ahora tengo Fermata Auto y Fermata Control en el dispositivo, en Android Auto en el coche solo aparece Fermata Control, los videos en el movil con Fermata Auto van bien, pero en el coche solo audio el video solo icono pequeño fijo. Algo estoy haciendo mal?

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks

[Android Auto General] Spray-N-Pray-M249:
To be clear. Only Rooted phones can play video on AA?
[Android Auto General] davostoff:
It is telling you that it cannot find the file or directory. Are you on the right path?

According to Manual:

Install adb (this well done, the device ZY322 appears .....

-Connect device to USB (movil to PC)

-Open the console and run:

adb push fermata-XXX-auto-universal-armXX ......

adb shell pm install-i ........

adb shell rm

Doubts:

- Where do I open the console to execute these commands??

-Where does it have to be downloaded? Fermata1.7.7

-What is the correct route?

Thanks
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
When i watch a video in the youtube section (Tab), I always see the same resolution for the videos is 240p and ... Not changeable. Why?

(I installed Fermata via AAAD - Except this issue, fermata works nearly perfect. Thanks a lot)
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Do you have this infinite loading when scanning the media files? Try to change the media scanner in the settings.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
What is your android version? Afaik, there are some issues with AAAD and android 11.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
All the links are in the first post. The latest version can be downloaded from github - https://github.com/AndreyPavlenko/Fermata/releases . Here you may find an instruction how to open console.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
You can change the resolution in the video settings - click on the back button, when playing video, and then change the video preferences. This is a standard youtube web interface.
[Android Auto General] Hole_12:
OK so I see the videos in A Auto. I just have a small problem, as you can see in the photo I am not able to remove the icon bar from android Auto.

Thanks

PS: Is it necessary to install F Control?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
You may find in google how to remove the bottom bar.

The Control app is required to enable the steering wheel control.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Ok, you are right.

One more question...

Is it possible to add, "Audio delay" option to youtube section as video section?

Thanks
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Unfortunately, no. Youtube is just a web page.
[Android Auto General] skyfox77:
Someone might have asked this already, but is there a way to watch pictures in this app or is thatr on a todolist?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
No, there is not.
[Android Auto General] Osky81:
Hola muy buenas, no sé si le a pasado a alguien, instale fermata audio y me funcionó perfectamente en el coche, ahora no me sale el icono de la app en la pantalla de Android auto y no puedo disfrutar de fermata en el coche, en el móvil me va perfectamente, pero en el coche ya no puedo utilizarla, no sé igual he tocado algo y a dejado de funcionar pero no consigo saber qué es.

Si alguien puede decirme a qué se debe, por qué me extraña que si funcionará unos días y ahora ya no funciona

Un saludo.
[Android Auto General] Vr.deruiter:
I installed using ADB, no problems there, however Fermata does not show as an app within my AA phone app list. Not sure why. Did not work with AAAD either. Any help appreciated.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
ADB and AAAD may not work for Android 11 and the latest version of AndroidAuto. You need to either downgrade AA, or use root.
[Android Auto General] Vr.deruiter:
Thanks. However I'm on Android 10 (still) and AA 6.3 (specifically not the latest version, although under version 6.2 and 6.1 it didn't work either).
[Android Auto General] waylo:
I'm getting audio only when I try to view videos on my AA. Installed via the ADB method. Anyone else with this issue?

Using a Samsung S9 on old Android 8.

EDIT: Never mind. There were 2 Fermata apps in the AA app list. The second one was the video player which was all the way at the bottom in my list and missed. The first one was just an audio player navigator.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Hi,

When I try to enter Netflix through the internet browser (Mirroring programs do not transfer images from Netflix. Only sound is heard. It will also solve this to fermata 😀) gives the following error. It says update the relevant extension (Widevine content decryption module - Chrome). It goes smoothly with chrome on the phone but ... Can this be fixed?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Have you tried "Version for PC" menu option?
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
From where?

Inside netflix opened in Web browser area

or

?

Yes, "Desktop version" option is already checked in fermata settings menu
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Right, in Fermata menu.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Unfortunately, for both situations (checked or not) netflix gives only sound no picture 😔

Edit: Sorry, I made mistake. Above explanation for all mirroring apps. AA Mirror Plus, screen2auto etc.

While watching netflix with fermata (at web section) , video doesnt start. No audio & video. It gives sorry message ( It says, "Find widevine content decryption module from " chrome://components" and check update for it)
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
I'll update webkit in the next version. Perhaps, it will help.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Perfect, thanks...
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Try this version - https://github.com/AndreyPavlenko/Fermata/releases/tag/v1.7.9
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
I tried but same problem for netflix videos. Please check the picture in add.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
And a video at below about the problem
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Could you open this https://www.whatismybrowser.com/detect/what-is-my-user-agent link in Chrome and Fermata on the same device and send me the User Agent string?
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Is it enough?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
And the same string for Chrome, please. As I understood, it works on Chrome but not on Fermata, on the same device. Am I right?
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Exactly... Yes you are right.

Please check the adds below. They are from chrome browser at same mobile phone (Huawei mate 20 pro)
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
As I see, in Chrome you are using mobile version, but in Fermata - PC. Try to disable the PC version.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
I unchecked the desktop version. But this time ı had a different problem. Please check the add.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Seems it attempts to open the link with the Netflix app. I'll add a User-Agent setting in the next version. Perhaps, It will help, but I'm not sure, I can't verify, I don't have a Netflix account.
[Android Auto General] hrmy:
Hi, I’m new to this app. Can I find a tutorial for it. Thanks
[Android Auto General] BD787:
Hello!

As with 1.7.8, I downloaded the new version 1.7.9 and I still can't see Fermata Auto in the Android Auto app drawer. It only shows Fermata Control. What could be the reason for this? Thanks a lot, my daughter enjoys YouTube in our Jeep!
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Try the new version - https://github.com/AndreyPavlenko/Fermata/releases/tag/v1.7.10 . If it does not work, go to Settings > Addons > Web browser and change the user agent.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Same problem occures...

By the way, How can i understand to change the User Agent? I push then . It glows only...
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
I can not understand. Which agent works in the background? And i can't understand if I can change it either...
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
You are clicking on the header, not the text field. Click on Mozilla/5.0 ....
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
I gave up 😔
[Android Auto General] belaimre:
How can I add iptv list and I where from download it?

Thank you
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Add Folder > M3U Playlist
[Android Auto General] belaimre:
This I undersatand, but "user-agent" I how have to set?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
This is optional. If not required, leave it empty.
[Android Auto General] bartekboro:
Hello Andrey, big thanks for your hard work! Fermata is excellent! One question: CarStream has an option to search using keyboard even while driving it also has voice search, but on Fermata it tells me that "Park to use keyboard" even if my car is turned off with handbrake on? Any chance on any changes on that or adding voice search? What can be the problem on my end? Thanks!
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Hello. Fermata uses the standard AA keyboard. It does not allow to use keyboard while driving. I don't know why it doesn't work in your case.

Voice search is in the plans.
[Android Auto General] therealvenom:
Thanks for your hard work!

Fermata Auto used to show in my AA launcher but something updated and it no longer shows

Ill try updating/reinstalling and see if that fixes it
[Android Auto General] therealvenom:
Nope, did an adb install and it shows as a regular app but not in carplay.

It worked a month or so ago but not now??

Any help would be much appreciated.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Either downgrade AA, or use root installation.

[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Done
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Thanks a lot. Is it possible to make & add a feature where we can change the tabs as an option? For example, I want to bring the TV tab to the front. & first place ..
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
What do you mean by "to the front"?
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
The first Tab is "Folder" as default.

I asked, is it possible to change their place. To put the "TV Tab" to the first for example.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Ok, I'll add an option to move the tabs.
[Android Auto General] baybora72:
Perfect.. 😀
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
I'm still getting this error, even with the the newest version. Any way to fix this? What should I add to User-agent?
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
What do I need to change in the User-agent to get Netflix working?
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
Nevermind, it seems that Netflix can't be faked.
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
Could u add the function to disable the playback bar? If I wanna browse the internet after wachting a video in Youtube the playback bar seems to still be showing.

Would be nice if we can disable the bar.

Love your work so far, thank you very much!
[Android Auto General] q10010:
Круто! Работает!
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
To hide the bar, you need to stop playback - long click on the play/pause button.

Btw, there is a fullscreen option in the web browser menu.
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
I can use only adb method to install fermata.

Any idea if this installation method will be fixed on Android auto... or which old version of android auto will 100 % work so that I downgrade AA to that version.

I cannot root, as I loose updates to my phone so have to use adb method only..
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Try to downgrade to 6.3.
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
Yes ...Downgrading to 6.3 works perfect.

Please add this to first page in instructions for Adb installations from PC. It will definitely help everyone who don't want to root and use youtube on Android Auto 6.3 . Thanks .

Just waiting for your voice / mic update on youtube...
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
I don't know what policy changed now...but Google is not allowing to run Android auto 6.3 without updating to version 6.5.

Tried multiple times, but it refuses to connect now until I update android auto ....
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
Same for me..
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
This is real bad news for old users who were able to run version 6.3 for external apps.

I think some spoof is now required to be shown to Google that even thou 6.3 is installed

..it should be shown as spoofed ver 6.5 or higher to Google 😉

Developers...we need you !!
[Android Auto General] sergi0_dj:
Can you help me remove this annoying ANDROID AUTO warning, which appears automatically when I start the parking maneuver? I don't mean the drawing of the sensors with the car, I mean the notice behind it. I have another A3 8v and this warning does not appear when I start the parking maneuver and my Android car does not cut off.

ibb.co/mX6gwp0
[Android Auto General] therealvenom:
Yeah android is forcing the update.
[Android Auto General] Mathynnn:
Anything to do about this? Will rooting fix the problem?
[Android Auto General] Arial_bold:
Please update the app to work on AA6.5
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
Any developments initiated anywhere on xda to use old versions of AA ? Android auto 6.3 is dead and its mandatory for non rooted users to use Android auto 6.5 and above.
[Android Auto General] narcotic81:
Can you please also add a "stop" button that takes you to the "folders" tab?

Thanks
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Long press on the play/pause button acts as the stop button.
[Android Auto General] JaimeC:
Seems like fermata will not allow sign-in to YouTube as it looks for authenticated browser.

How can this be enabled?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Have you enabled the Web Browser addon?
[Android Auto General] Arial_bold:
@Andrey Pavlenko do you have any update for us on getting this to work with AA 6.5?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Unfortunately, no updates. The only solution - root.
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
Ok..So can you confirm? If I root my old samsung S7 which has android 8 ...will it work 100 % ? Root method that you specified...
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
I think, it should work. For me even adb method still works. Android 10, AA 6.5.612.
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
I think issue is from Android 11 onwards, June security update and Google services updates.. which forces to update AA to latest version.
[Android Auto General] Arial_bold:
Are there any other no-root alternatives?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Android 10
[Android Auto General] carter-13:
I am under Android 11 / AA 6.3 no ROOT (Samsung S20 FE) with Fermata v1.8.0 install with ADB

[Android Auto General] brevy:
Hello there. I added the m3u list to fermata auto. I can play the TV channels in the list but play for a while and switch to the next channel. It persists even though I turn it off in settings. I will be glad if you can help.
[Android Auto General] zabaknilesh:
I have tried to downgrade AA 6.3 on unrooted S7 edge which is on android 8.

But same problem continues...AA does not allows to be connected unless its upgraded to latest AA. This is due to google services update and I think not android version.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Have you tried the latest AA version? I think it should work with Android 8. Adb installation works for me for the latest AA version and Android 10.
[Android Auto General] Mario210:
Well . I can say one thing . I got it to work with version 6.3. Than i connected to AA all was ok. After few days i updated to latest AA and apps still there CarTube Mirror . Just wandering about Fermata
[Android Auto General] spythehacker:
Very good app nice alternative of MX Player.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Yes it's free.
[Android Auto General] mars08:
A quick question... just to confirm...

I have installed the latest version of the app. My phone is a Redmi Note 9 running MIUI 12.0.8 (Android 10) and AA 6.5.612134. The app works fine.

The bootloader is locked and the there's no root access.

I just want to confirm that I WILL NOT be able to watch any movies I have on the phone using AA and Fermata. That is only possible if the phone is rooted, right?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
If you say that "The app works fine" with AA, then you can watch video.
[Android Auto General] mars08:
Thank you for the quick reply.

I can watch YouTube streams. Do you mean I should also be able to watch avi files stored on the phone... via AA on my car's screen?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Yes, if you can launch the app in AA, you can watch videos.
[Android Auto General] rapdes:
Anyway to enable search while driving?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
No, AA does not allow to use keyboard while driving.
[Android Auto General] Lives Pro:
I can't chose it (720p) or others in fermata on AA HU of car.! In phone it normal.!
