[Q] Mirror Link - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

I am trying to get Samsung's car mode app to work via mirror link with my Pioneer appradio 3. When I go into the settings/more/mirrorlink, only the phone app shows up as working. Does anybody have any other working options or know how to get Samsung's working?
Also, my phone does connect to the radio.

Does the radio have bluetooth? I believe mirror link only works with tvs that are wifi enabled. The radio must have wifi connected and you can see the radio in mirror link but other than that it wont work

The radio says its mirror link enabled. If you check the website for mirror link its actually a system used to send info from a phone to a car. And the setting in the phone says to connect to your car through USB.

Short answer mirrorlink is broken the current version 1.1 does not work with the older version 1.0 on older head units like appradio 3, I have a htc one m9 with the same issue.

Thanks fort the reply. Hopefully they can get this figured out.

[Q] How to Enable Car Mode

I found this thread for instructions on how to do this. I've been able to get the Car Mode to show in quick settings, but the links that are provided don't work. Just wondering if there's another way or has the Car Mode app available for download?
Anyone?
Car Mode?
Wondering the same thing. Just rooted and I would really love a better way to use my S5 with my car's Bluetooth!

Enable Android Auto UI?

Hi @ all,
I now own an Pioneer AppRadio 4 (SPH-DA120) and use it along with the "AppRadio Unchained Reloaded" app and my HTC One M7 running Lollipop.
My phone is connected to the head unit via HDMI/MHL and touch input is send to the phone via bluetooth with the help of the "AR Unchained" app.
That combination works, but I am interested in getting the Android Auto UI to show up on my head unit, because I like that clean Home style without its NotificationBar and so on.
Is there any possibility to switch my phone to Auto mode, so it gets rendered on my mobile device and that way send to the head unit via mhl?

Appradioforums.com might be of use. It was back in the days of when I had my appradio 2
I have the Appradio 3 with the same setup.. I think this would be a really simple MOD, and should be possible.
You must download this fresh android auto app and plug in phone to radio via usb

Not compatible with my Nexus 5 running Android 5.1 Lollipop either.

[Android 7.0+] AppRadio Unchained Rootless

AppRadio Unchained Rootless allows full mirroring of your phone from your AppRadio. This means that any app can be controlled from the head unit screen and not just a few that are specially adapted.
AppRadio Unchained Rootless is available from the Play store here: AppRadio Unchained Rootless
The user's manual is available here: User's manual
For this app to work Android 7 or higher is required. As Android 7 only allows to inject complete gestures, a gesture has to be completed first on the head unit before it will be dispatched to the phone. It works similar to record and playback. Suppose you need to do a long press of 2 seconds, first press for 2 seconds, once you lift your finger it will be dispatched and replicated on the phone where it will take 2 seconds as well. It's recommended to only do things that take a short time so there won't be too much delay.
Important
The 'Smartphone setup' on the head unit needs to be set correctly for Android as by default it's configured for Iphone. Go to Settings->System->Input/Output Settings->SmartphoneSetup and set Device to 'Others' and Connection to 'HDMI'. See this video: Smartphone setup
Any other AppRadio related app needs to be uninstalled as this blocks the connection to AppRadio Unchained Rootless.
AppRadio mode requires that your device is connected to the HDMI input of the head unit. Depending on the device this can be done with a MHL / Slimport / Miracast / Chromecast adapter. This app supports automatic connection to wireless screencasting devices. Since Google API doesn't support this directly it is done via the phone's GUI. Note that only the phone's built-in screencasting capabilities can be used.
Because this app may not work for your setup there's an extended trial period of 48 hours. In order to claim this simply request a refund within 48 hours after purchase by emailing the order number to the support email address.
Supported head units: any AppRadio that supports Android AppMode via HDMI.
For example: SPH-DA100, SPH-DA110, SPH-DA210, SPH-DA120, AVH-X8500BHS, AVH-4000NEX, AVH-4100NEX, AVH-4200NEX, AVIC-X850BT, AVIC-X950BH, AVIC-Z150BH, AVIC-6000NEX, AVIC-6100NEX, AVIC-6200NEX, AVIC-7000NEX, AVIC-7100NEX, AVIC-7200NEX, AVIC-8000NEX, AVIC-8100NEX, AVIC-8200NEX
Units that have AppRadio mode via USB (a.k.a. AppRadio One) are not supported.
Android 7 Bluetooth bug
If during connection 'Accept thread error' is displayed this is not because of a bug in the app but due to a bug in Android 7.
It can be fixed by disabling BT background scanning: Go to Settings -> Location, in top right menu click Scanning -> Bluetooth Scanning.
The following features are supported:
- Multitouch
- AppRadio buttons
- GPS data transfer via mock locations (only works with head units that have a GPS receiver)
- Wake lock
- Rotation locker (to put any app in landscape mode)
- Real calibration
- Start on HDMI detection (for use with phones and HDMI adapters)
- Notifications to indicate connection state
- Diagnostics
- Automatic Bluetooth toggle for improved connection
Beta test version
The beta test version has the latest features but can also contain bugs.
You need to become a tester of the AppRadio Unchained Rootless app to be able to get it.

Does this version also requires the phone rooted. I'm on a mate 9 pro with Android 7?

The S8 was confirmed working, the AVH-8500BHS is supported. Only thing I am not sure about is the Samsung wireless dongle but if it doesn't work a recent Miracast like the Actiontec Screenbeam mini 2 or the Microsoft wireless adapter V2 should do the trick.
For the S8 there's also a wired option. Somebody is using this and it says works well:

It can charge the phone.
Just got it up and running on mate 9 pro. Works perfectly with Microsoft wireless adapter the only problem is the size of the screen. It doesn't show the screen I landscape as it should only partially. Any thoughts on this or is it a new launcher I need for my phone? If that's the case which one should I get?

It's probably the launcher, one that works well is Nova launcher. Just try it and you will know.

The AVH-X2650BT has AppRadio USB and is not supported.

The video is via the HDMI input of the head unit and touch goes back via Bluetooth. The S7 doesn't support MHL so a wired connection isn't possible. What works is to cast the screen via a Miracast adapter like the Screenbeam Mini 2 or the Microsoft wireless adapter V2.
I am using my S8+ with rockscout and it is working pretty good. It is a little lagged and the screen is in portrait mode as opposed to landscape. What more will this app do. I am willing to buy it but I just want to know what make this better. I am just using a USB-c cable plugged into the back of the Appradio 4 so that might be a limitation at the moment.

I just loaded Appradio Unchained Rootless on my Verizon S8. I'm using the free Nova launcher. I have a Pioneer 4100 NEX, using the cables and HDMI converter that was recommended in another appradio thread (Towabo USB3.1 Type-C to HDMI adapter). The firmware in the Pioneer was just updated to 1.09. The 4100 is installed in a 2012 jeep JK using a PAC canbus adapter and a micro bypass.
Now appradio seems to work, set the input to other-HDMI and then expanded the screen to fit. I can control the phone from the radio BUT everytime I change to appradio, I lose sound from whatever I was using, be it Sirius, HD radio or the SD card. I have a friend that has the same setup but he's on a Dodge RAM and not on a canbus link. He had audio and can then bring up appradio and keeps his selected audio playing.
From the radio end, we are the same firmware, same HDMI adapter, same cables and feeding the adapter from a 2A+ dedicated USB-C cable. The only difference is he has the paid version of Nova Launcher and I have the free version.
I figure it's something I missed. Anyone have any suggestions?

Mirror Link - Help

Just wondering if anybody has had any success with Mirror Link and getting it to work? I'm talking about actually mirroring your Note 8 screen on your car display rather than mirroring Samsung's Car Mode app which had to be one of the most useless apps ever created!
What I'm talking about is this: https://youtu.be/9fQyjmWfZtQ
Or this: https://youtu.be/Yksv9aLk58s
I seem to remember a few months back when I tested out a Note 8, it worked straight out of the box. Now when I plug my phone into my car (VW Tiguan), it prompts me to download Samsung Car Mode and the only Mirror Link so that it will open is that one. Which is pointless.
Looking at these videos, you have to install LG Drive. I did that and it refused to open saying it would only open on LG devices. So then I tried installing an older version from APK Mirror which did open but the screen mirroring didn't work.. it just showed up as an app alongside Samsung's Car App and then didn't do anything.
I'd really like to get this working. I have no intention of driving and using my phone screen in the car but there are circumstances and usage cases where this would be really helpful for me.
Anybody had any luck?
Thanks
install LG MirrorDrive 1.2.1.2
