lock device on boot - Android Auto General

Hello, Im running a Malaysk ROM and I dont find a solution to lock the device on boot. For example requesting a PIN o similar way commonly used on the phones.
I booked a car park into airport for the next Saturday and they need to have car keys in order to could move the car. In that way, when they access the car, they also could access to the Radio so potentially they could read my email, calendar, chat and also using internet with my chrome saved password......
Any suggestion?

If you have your phone and are away from your car they have no access to its data. Maybe only your contacts if you uploaded them to the hu.

Yes but its not so hard to connect the radio to the park wifi or them phone tethering. Ty

Any answer on this?

Try Tasker with Secure Settings plugin. I've installed a switch in the ACC line and hidden it from view.

Has anyone tried tasker? It seems that you have to pay for this.

If I rrmember correctly first time I docked my phone, it asked me what app do I want to run at dock. And default app was sense me library. Dunno why you did choose tunein in the first place. There should be dock setting which you could change it I guess

I find a solution to this problem
Just set the event in Sony Smart Connect as show in attach screenshot and it will stop Tune In Radio or any other apps from launching automatic when connected to the charging dock.
I have this same problem too. It launches 500PX. I have no Tunein radio installed in my phone.
Mine launches Tune In also. I never selected it in the dock menu but it starts up every time.
It seems to be a problem with the way Android handles the startup of dock apps according to TuneIn...see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2208666
Had the same problem.
Emailed TuneIn and this is their reply.
Ended up just uninstalling the app.
Was giving me wake/sleep problems when I charged my phone...
Hello,
Thanks for contacting us. One of the features of the Android OS is that an application can be automatically started as soon as the device is plugged into a dock. If you have multiple applications that support this feature, you will be given an option to select which one you'd like to always start. If you only have one application (e.g. TuneIn) that supports this feature, it will automatically start when you connect to the dock.
We at TuneIn cannot allow control over this feature once we've enabled it's use. Other listeners have informed us that there are 3rd party applications available for Android devices that allow you to have finer control over this feature of the Android OS.
Sincerely,
Michelle

"Dock No Op" from Play Store works for me.
Also tried "Invisible Dock" but it gives me a splash screen which I don't like.
Sorry newbie, can't post links..
You can disable this by going to the smart connect menu and rechoosing what you want at startup when you dock your phone... Or simply have it do nothing. Good luck!
Vince
Turn off the charging dock from smart connect.

I dont have a gear,
but with autoremote you can send a message command to phone with bluetooth and phone can run a task.
For me this a possible mode For my home automation.
If work its possible create shortcut to novalauncher(gear) example:light on kitchen and phone excute command.
Now i use this metode with phone To tablet,
I think this is the only solution for sync gear with phone.
Sorry for my english, i hope you understand me.

I could never get it to open. It just crashed everytime.
However, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work on Bluetooth anyway (needs internet)

I am running null 13 with full gapps etc.
Can send messages when internet is tethered but not offline.
I have held down device and registered bluetooth id on both phone and gear as well.
It never worked for me by specifying the ID of the Gear. I had to set it to any bluetooth device.

I have both tasker and Autoremote installed on the gear, but I can't figure out how to initially add a device to autoremote via bluetooth alone.

I think I figured this one out. What I did was:
Install Gapps (sent the zip over thru ADB and then flashed it)
Install Tasker and Autoremote thru the appstore
Installed Barcode scanner (optional)
Spoofed WiFI
Scanned my phone's AutoRemote QR Code (optional)
That's it! You need to be tethered thru bluetooth, obviously.

Gear and Tasker...

So what kind of tasks are you guys setting up on your gear ?
Just curious what people have come up with as I am looking for ideas...
Thanks
So far only internet on/off
Others have remotevoice working and shake to launch
Also can just trigger tasks
Next mine will be displaying notification counts on my watch
I just have it on the phone and Gear to enable BT tethering for 5 minutes every hour. That allows my calendar to stay in sync. I have a calendar widget in the home screen of my Gear.

I have mine set to fetch webcam shots of a few watering holes at different safari national parks (so far seen lion, elephants etc) but you can choose any live stream webcam
Also set it up with Joao apps AutoRemote, Auto contacts etc and can shake to voice call any contact by spoken name
Using EventGhost to get and send notifications and remote control my PC and other android devices
Can instantly share files in both directions with PC, other Android devices and Gear

I'm going to start a thread requesting people who are using tasker on the gear post the profiles they use on their gear to help those of us less familiar with the app to get rolling.

Automation

I'm looking to do some fancy things with my Nexus 6 and I'm thinking I could probably do it with automation, but I'm new to the world of automation. First of all, if this is posted in the wrong section my apologies.
I want, at the designated time, for my Nexus 6 to cast its screen to my Chromecast automatically. For example, my alarm goes off at 9:30am, so at 9:29 I want my Nexus to open up the Clock app, cast its screen to my Chromecast, at which time my alarm will go off through my surround sound speakers, and I'll easily be able to see the time on my TV (I'm blind without my glasses).
Is any of this possible with automation? I tried the free Tasker app but couldn't find any Chromecast or cast screen option for actions. Since screen cast is built in for Android 5 I figured this could be easier to achieve, but like I said I've never used automation before so I am unsure. Can anyone give me some advice on how I can accomplish something like this?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Never used it, but I know there's a Tasker plugin called AutoCast. Should probably be what you need...
It's on Play store
I tried AutoCast but it doesn't seem to do what I need it to do.
I found "Cast Screen" under apps in Tasker, it does exactly what it should I suppose. It launches Cast Screen but I need it to also automatically select my Chromecast so that it actually casts my screen. Still stumped for now lol

Tasker can do input (button presses) up, down, select etc
If rootSU's suggestion don't work, try another Tasker app: AutoInput.
Tasker can do many things, best is to google what you want to do, likely someone has already done it.....

unlink Waze and Android auto

All,
One question I am seeking the answer to is can one unlink Waze from AA? Google maps will allow one to run Google maps on the phone and if using a screen mirroring app (e.g. screen2auto, AA Mirror, etc) one can stay in screen mirror road and use Google maps.
Waze, however, refuses to launch on the phone if Android Auto is running. I would like to be able to run Waze on my phone and mirror the screen, so that I do not have to go back to Android auto to see directions if I am mirroring my screen.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Cheers,
B.D.
As far as I know, it is not possible to run two apps using the GPS in the same time. Take in account that even one of the navigation apps runs on AA (screen mirroring), this doesn't mean it is not using the same GPS sensor.

Uhi711,
I appreciate the response, but just to clarify, I am not asking about running two GPS app (though this is possible, as I have run magic earth and maps at the same time>. My question is specific if there is a way to run waze on the phone while connected to AA.
Hope this clarifies.
Cheers,
B.D.
Ok, I didn't understand exactly what you were asking.
I'm not sure that this will solve your problem, but it worth trying.
In AA settings (opened on phone), you have the option to choose what apps you want to be able to see on AA's apps screen (Customize launcher). Disable Waze and see what happens when you connect your phone to your car's infotainment system.

Not sure if this helps but I run Waze & Google maps at the same split screen each set to 2 different locations all the time. Never had any problems. [emoji2369]

Hmmmm. Strange. I tried on my Pixel 3xl and Waze will launch and then FC itself. Google Maps will run on my phone Even if I run Google Maps on my car, or Waze is running on my car. I am on the latest version of AA and Waze.
Thanks for the suggestions and information.
Cheers,
B.D.
Figured it out. If Waze is running (From the head unit), then it will not permit Waze to run on the phone (as the output is already to the head unit). I thought I had exited the app and not had it launch in Android Auto.
To overcome this, I used KWGT to create a widget that when pressed will call a Tasker Task to kill waze. Then I could start waze on the phone (mirror screen) and even have it split screen with my music app.
Hope this helps somebody else.
Cheers,
B.D.
