I'm going to butt into this thread because I don't know where else to post. Basically, I'm lost. It all started when I wanted video to play on my car screen. It all worked fine through AAAD/Fermata. Then my android phone had to be replaced. I was able to salvage my contacts list but not mush else. I still had my video folder. I downloaded the usual VLC, Car Stream, Fermata. I went to the location to download (and pay) for the Fermata Pro but having downloaded the Car Stream app I went over my one per month limit unless I wanted to pay for the download. I wanted to pay for it and in doing so, it would have sent me on my merry way. But hold on, when I clicked to pay for Fermata Pro it told me that I cannot pay (strange)...and I cannot download the app needed to play my video files. It also told me that I can download files but only one per month. For that option I need to wait until Sept 16th. With no option to purchase the needed app it drove me to this forum. I do apologise for the intrusion but what do? I don't understand most of what you guys write about. It is like a foreign language to me. I also tried to download the needed app but got a pop up post by the supplier that I'll get something later with no date or anything telling me when I should expect it. I am at square one and don't know where or which way to turn. My Android system plays audio just fine. Will someone help me with this?

All I am trying to do is download Fermata Pro. Where do I find this?

Here in my note10+ its working in Android Auto version 7.9.633914-release on my VOLkSWAGEN sound. \O/
[Android Auto General] EggZenBeanz:
Don't think fermata pro exists. I downloaded fermata from git hub and then installed via King installer. No pro, no payment etc needed. Working in Mazda 3. Just would like gapless playback
[Android Auto General] 20ducks:
git hub isn't helping me.

Please, could anybody answer/comment does Fermata 1.8.11, installed by KingInstaller 1.2 or by AAEase 0.6.2, work with AndroidAuto 7.8.622514, on Android 12?

(Particularly, I have root, ie Magisk v25.3 - hence I can block updates for AA

Also, it's Xiaomi with MIUI 13, but I think it's not that relevant

NB, last year with my older phone and A11, I was successfully running Fermata, CarTube and S2A - hence, not a newbie here

But now I'm only interested for Fermata)
[Android Auto General] EggZenBeanz:
Not sure about the specific AA version, but I have the latest AA installed from playstore, rooted and install via King on A12. All working with latest 1.8.11
[Android Auto General] pnsdhrn:
Yes it is working with my Samsung Galaxy Fold2 with Android 12 having Android Auto 7.9 and Blaupunkt B910AU San Andreas 970 Car Head Unit.And my is not rooted also.

Even though it is announced that this program support CUE list, I cannot use the cue file on my phone. The media file associated with the cue file plays without any issues. It will nice if I can see the track info in the cue file. Your hint/help will be appreciated.
[Android Auto General] aetos2000:
Everything working OK exept fermata, screen2auto, etc. What blocking is that? Can i bypass this block temporary with some commands? I have try many AA versions on my rooted android 8 system ...
[Android Auto General] dede29az:
Hello

does anyone have a solution for AA and Fermata Auto with a non-root and android 13 system?

I don't see Fermata Auto on AA with Oppo find.

AA in develop mode and unknown source checked.

Thanks in advance.
[Android Auto General] mikescorei:
Congrats on your work! It is my first look of this app. I am clueless, if I add a m3u list of iptv programs, they play for 5 seconds and then skips to next, how can I make it to stick to the current channel?

Thanks for help!
[Android Auto General] mikescorei:
I figured out, when player accesses m3u playlist, should try to reconnect to the source again. Without it player thinks source finished and skips to next tv channel
[Android Auto General] jotay2k:
Hi, i have a very Big problem, my Kia AA 7.8 was working fine with fermata 1.8.11 but today AA ask me to update to AA 8 and fermata does not works anymore.

In my P10 lite King installer doesnt work so i install fermata vía ADB using CMD and in AA 7.8 was working fine. I tried installing vía ADB in all AA 8 versions and fermata appears but doesnt start.

I cloned fermata vía Lucky patcher in order to cheat AA everytime i update.

Any idea.

Help please!!!
[Android Auto General] Myque:
Y

Kingstaller doesnt work? I have to un install Fermata and re install it to make it work on any AA update, I think that fermata have a "save settings" and "load settings" from file, maybe you should try to save your settings and uninstall it first?
[Android Auto General] jotay2k:
The only way It works with me is using ADB

(adb push fermata.apk -r install "com.android.vending" /data/local/temp/fermata.apk......) vía CMD. Please could you tell me different ways without usong kinginstaller???
[Android Auto General] 20ducks:
After enjoying Fermata and CarStream for a few months it all stopped this weekend. I am running them on a

Samsung 21 Ultra where the apps run fine...the car screen now tells me that it cannot run the media. It should start with the screen that shows all the icons loaded but doesn't. So without the choices it will not run any of the non-rooted apps I am so fond of. I play many youtube videos (I don't watch while driving) plus youtube.

I have no idea if an update caused this shut down or what. Can anyone help me with this please?
[Android Auto General] greenblueye:
Hi everyone, with my Samsung Galaxy s22 ultra aa 8.2 fermata works fine but just i can not play sound when maps is on the main screen. Can it play in background? İ can not listen to YouTube video's sound when maps is working on top. İ should put fermata on top to continue listening and watching.

Android Auto 8.4 just released.....is this upgrade I should consider?
[Android Auto General] wyt18:
Updated AA to 8.4, and Fermata Auto disappeared from my AA Apps list (even though it appears under packages in AA settings). Fermata Control still appears in my Apps list though

Tried using AAEase to reinstall, AIO Tweaker to make the SQL edits, but neither option has worked so far

Anyone successful with running Fermata Auto on AA 8.4 (or higher)?

UPDATE: I tried rolling back AA to 8.2, but Fermata Auto is still missing from the AA Apps list. Seems like this may be a server-side restriction. Any other data points to share?

Sorry I'm sure I'm not the first to ask, but couldn't find a recent post on it - OnePlus Nord2, no root, installed the 1.9.0 from GitHub through kingstaller attached in OP, enabled unknown sources in AA dev settings, but Fermata still doesn't show in applist.
[Android Auto General] agentmyke:
Hi, install The apks with King installer
[Android Auto General] toth42:
I did, as mentioned i used the kingstaller attached in first post.
[Android Auto General] darkkain:
I've tried all non-root methods on OnePlus 10 pro and each time Fermata is not appear in the app menu. It looks like the firmware is blocking it from android 12+. On my wife's op7pro with Android 11 it works like a charm. Is the root, the only option?
[Android Auto General] italodance:
I just installed Fermata Auto but video is laggy a bit, whereas Audio is fine.

My AA is wireless and using AAWireless dongle by the way.

So, someone please help me out. What should I do?;

iptv stream skips to next channel every few seconds. samsung s7@android 8, aa 8.6.xx, fa 1.9.0.

[Android Auto General] cattod:
OnePlus 10 pro загрузка через AAAD начинается и прерывается. Fermata на телефоне не появляется. AAAD разрешен в качестве установщика приложений. Попробую установку с помощью kingstaller, но в меню разработчика на телефоне нет пункта установки приложений из неизвестных источников. Видимо блокируется эта возможность на уровне прошивки. Можно ли это исправить?

Mod translation: OnePlus 10 pro AAAD download starts and stops. Fermata does not appear on the phone. AAAD is allowed as an app installer. I'll try to install using kingstaller, but in the developer menu on the phone there is no option to install applications from unknown sources. Apparently this feature is blocked at the firmware level. Can this be fixed?

Someone help me out, what's this purple card behind the video ?!
[Android Auto General] atunguyd:
Hi been using the app for a while now and very happy with it. Question though - any plans to add other youtube type streaming services like Rumble to it? With the youtube policies going the way they are going a number of content providers are providing better content on less restrictive platforms.

[Android Auto General] cabiste007:
Hello

I've recently installed fermara auto using kinginstaller. My phone connect well with the car and everything works well. When I try to open fermata auto it's freeze for around 3 sec and go back to map with blank screen as shown in the image.

Android auto version 8.8.630

fermata auto 1.9.0 and 1.8.9 both tested same problem
[Android Auto General] mars08:
I think I have missed some basic information. Fermata has worked properly on my phone in the past, but now I cannot play the video files on my phone when connected to AA... Just using my phone, Fermata plays the video files okay, but in my car those files are played as sound only. Has the video in cars feature BEEN REMOVED? My phone is running Android 11 with Android Auto v8.8.630444. I also have VLC v3.5.4 installed. Yesterday I updated Fermata to the latest version from the Play Store. Is playing video files in AA still possible?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
The version from Play Store does not support video in AA. You need to install Fermata Auto from Github, using the KingInstaller. Please, read the instruction on the first page.
[Android Auto General] mars08:
I appreciate your quick reply. The version from Github works perfectly!
[Android Auto General] Xecura:
Hi Andrey,

I love your Fermata app, but after updating Pixel 7 with android 13 latest update, Fermata stop working in Android Auto. Try every option and it won't show up in Launcher.

Do you have idea

@Andrey Pavlenko

There is an issue in the latest update, it keeps scanning and can't add thumbnails of the video files. Please fix it.
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Have you tried this version of KingInstaller https://github.com/fcaronte/KingInstaller/releases/ ?
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Try changing the scanner. Go to Settings > Media Engine.
[Android Auto General] zgfg:
With LSPosed, I previously installed v1.9.0 and now updated to v1.9.1 - no KingInstaller, AAEase or anything

And thanks, it shows in AA Versions (screenshot) and appears and works in AA like a charm

Just one question - I had v1.9.0 and there was no notification in LSPosed that there was an update (for the other LSPosed modules there is usually a mark about the available updates)
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
I'm getting the notification, each time, when fermata is installed.
[Android Auto General] Xecura:
Thanks

Yes, but away don't show on AA.

My phone is without unlook... :(

Thanks
[Android Auto General] Andrey Pavlenko:
Have you enabled unknown sources in AA settings?
[Android Auto General] Xecura:
Yes Andrey..

I would not say that v1.9.x has "built-in XPosed module"

v1.9.x (download available from GitHub, find the link to GitHub in the OP post) installs as LSPosed module

[Android Auto General] AAMAA:
Yes for all who updated to Fermata 1.9.1 there is no access to the device storage and for some user's the app not appear on AA at all.
[Android Auto General] AAMAA:
Same here, it's totally blocked.

Tried to rollback to old AA and old Fermata also different version Kinginstaller. No chance.

Hi, unfortunately for me aswell the Fermata Auto application does not appear on the Android Auto menu in the car. The Fermata Control app does. I'm using a OnePlus 9 Pro not rooted.

Android Auto is in developer mode and accepts from unknown sources.

Version and permission info:

Fermata Control: 1.9.1

Fermata Auto: 1.9.1

Android Auto: 9.1631044-release

What could be the cause? Is there any way we could help to provide a solution?

Thank you.
[Android Auto General] italodance:
You kingstaller OnePlus/oppo edition to install this.
[Android Auto General] stjst:
I had done this before, and it didn't work. However, yesterday night I installed the newest version of kinginstaller, and that may have done the trick. It had a Oppo/oneplus/readme option so I'm hopeful and gonna test it later today.

Thanks.
[Android Auto General] Elanra:
Hi, I have MIA3 with MIUI 12.5.5 installed (based on android 10), I tried everything with Fermat installation, but android auto doesn't see it at all. I also have a problem with car2stream and VLC (only for music), AA sees them but writes "NO NEW MESSAGES DURING THIS DRIVE". I tried to install fermata on another mobile phone (A40 android 11) and it worked right away and everything works.

It is problem with my MIUI 12.5.5 on android 10??? this is stabile os and Iliked it.

I have new update android auto on this mobile.

Please help me, if anybody nows anything about that.

Is it possible to set youtube quality to 720 (fixed at that resolution)?
[Android Auto General] sonic1675:
So I just installed Fermata from the GitHub through king and anytime I play a channel through the m3u file I selected on the TV menu it automatically changes channels or stops playing automatically. Could someone help me fix this or tell me how I can get the logs and I can upload them to see what's wrong?

I'm running it on an unlocked and fully rooted OnePlus 9 pro, with the module activated in Xposed so I don't understand what the problem is.
[Android Auto General] OriCalhoun:
Hi, I just did a clean install of latest versions Fermata and King (Poco F3, MIUI 14.0.70), and am having a bug in the YouTube add-on when I'm using it to watch videos on the phone (not in the car):

After a few seconds on the home page, the whole screen turns white (or black, if in dark mode. At the top of the page is "Home - YouTube". Video controls are displayed. If a video is loaded, hitting play will play the audio, but no video.

- happens only on the YouTube home page, not Subscriptions or Library

- doesn't happen if a video is previewing inside of the web page.

- I've tried with a clean install, and also with logging a YouTube account: same behavior

- Easiest workaround is to his the floating back button, or Search, or go to Subscriptions or Library tabs.

- I've tried playing with every single setting (e.g. play on start, fullscreen, etc) but no joy

How is it possible that is a Pixel only problem when other apps like fermata control, cartube etc keeps showing and working? It has something to do with the update too.
[Android Auto General] Giabett:
Dear all,

I have a car screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio, which means that it has a wider display than a standard 16:9 aspect ratio. When I watch a 16:9 video on YouTube and select the "adapt" option, I can see it at full screen, albeit a bit zoomed in, which is acceptable. If the video is in 21:9 aspect ratio, I can view it at full screen with the correct proportion.

However, when I try to watch a 21:9 movie from a web browser, it is displayed with black bars on the top and bottom, regardless of whether I try to select the "adapt" option in the settings or adjust the aspect ratio to 16:9 or 4:3. I'm wondering if there's a way to fix this issue and have the same behavior as YouTube in the web browser.

Does anyone have any suggestions or solutions to this problem?

Thank you in advance for your help and input.

Hello

I have a honor magic 2 with harmonyOS 3.0, Android auto 9.4.6, fermata auto 1.9.1. the app was working fine suddenly it's stop show up in Android auto. I've tried:

- reinstalling the app with king installer 1.3

- using the king installer option for oneplus and realme

- reinstalling the app with AAAD

- downgrade the version of fermata and Android auto

- trying other alternatives (such as carstream cartube it figure out but shows no message during this drive)

None of the attempt above helped me to show the app in Android auto.

Did you have please any suggestions to solve my issue.

Thanks

With a rooted xperia xz1c with android 13 lineageOS, i tried fermata (and cartube and carstream), with android auto store (also AAAD), it didn't work: fermata not visible, and cartube or carstream displayed "no message".

Then I tried with kinginstaller, it didn't work either

Then I tried with LSposed + Android-Auto-XLauncher + Kinginstaller by following these steps:

Fermata youtube works (y) and control from carbuttons also work, also while driving

On kinginstaller, I tried to enable the setting "for root user (lineage)", but nothing happens when I click install, so I disabled that to be able to install

With native aspect ratio, I have a few millimeters of screen on top and bottom that are not used. Is full screen without a side pannel possible ? on google maps it's possible by click the maps icon on the left but it's the only app for which I could do it
[Android Auto General] Dragon31337:
I have the same exact behavior. It also sometimes randomly starts playing the first video on the screen,

What are the solutions? What is a floating back button (i hope you are not talking about 3rd party app from google play)? Is it in Fermata option? This is very annoying.

I'm on Samsung S22 ultra.
