Bluetooth mouse issues

I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with Nougat and am using a Bluetooth mouse to control my phone. Everything seems to work fine except in the Google app and certain other apps. When I initiate a search with OK Google and click on search beneath the voice results which redirects me to the Google results of the Google app, I am unable to left click on any of the links within Google search through the app. Some of the other apps that I installed, including ESPN fantasy, also will not let me click on anything. If I use Chrome and use Google search that way, I am able to click on any of the search results web links and it works without an issue. I also just noticed that when I hold down the left click on my Bluetooth mouse to select and copy text in almost all apps, including the Google app, the pop-up menu allowing me to choose those options does not show up. I am still able to do both of these functions using my finger on the screen. On my previous Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, I discovered if I downgraded to a previous version of Android system webview to a version several months old, I am able to click on the results links using the Google app without a problem. However, I do not see Android system webview listed on the installed apps and therefore cannot downgrade to a previous version. Please help me with this issue because it makes the Google app and a lot of other apps useless. The reason that these factors are so important is that I am in a wheelchair and I am using my wheelchair joystick which acts as a normal Bluetooth mouse to completely control my phone.

im not sure the note 8 would be ideal for you seeing as the s-pen might be impeding some of the mouse interaction, but that aside, have you tried the universal switch in
Accessibility-->dexterity and interaction-->universal switch (ignore the post if you have looked into this already)
once you slide this on you should be able to add custom switches from connected devices, unfortunately i do not have a mouse bluetooth or otherwise to test this out
edit: you might want to try and turn off the power saver under settings-->advance features--> S Pen (just guessing but it might be ignoring click commands due to disable pen input)

Your suggestions did not work. Also, I have tried the universal menu button but I am unable to click it with the Bluetooth mouse. Do you think it is something related to the Android system webview or the Google app? Because I remember last time on the Samsung S7 Edge marshmallow that downgrading those apps to a older version made these problems go away.

Mirrorlink Note 8 N950F , full mirroring, root Android 7.1.1

Hi guys,
I've been trying to get full mirroring on my peugeot with mirrorlink without any success.
1 . WITH STOCK PHONE (no root) :
Mirrorlink is working with my car when I plug it, but due to restrictions you can't use what you want. I can only use authorized apps like deezer but loose the equalizer.
In order to use WAZE or MAPS, I followed many topics.
I tried with Button Savior method and LG mirrordrive, it doesn't work. For me this is purely a software restriction beacause Messenger pop-up come to my screen and I can fully respond on my car's screen !
I found a topic saying you can modify database of Mirrorlink app (with Android tools for example), to add authorized apps, I had exactly the same folder as in the topic but couldn't modify (no root)
2. WITH ROOT on stock firmware from sammobile
Android tools now fully works, but I don't get the same files in the Mirrorlink Database... strange
I tried tu plug-in to my car : it says on my phone "connected to your car with mirrorlink" but nothing on my car's screen, then after few moment I've got a message on my car like "authentification of the app is not valid"
So when I'm rooted, I can't use Mirrorlink anymore. (with SuperSu)
I tried flashing again with Magisk and hide root, no way.
I feel this is only little software security something but pretty annoying
I'd like this topic to be a reference for ANDROID 7.1.1 or Note 8 devices facing the same issue, because there no hint on the internet about this particular problem. It doesn't seem to be a problem on rooted android 6.0 devices...
I've found topic about screen mirroring fix (add line in build.prop), found about snapchat fix etc but no fix for Mirrorlink.
I tried to uninstall but forbiden even in root, and to install previous version, as well no way...
HELP !!

Fed up, I flashed my Note 8 with stock rom again.
After long long long try, I managed to get full mirroring with the classic method : Rock Scout screen, use Button savior tu initiate any app, and keep trying to clic on LG mirrordrive to get (or not) to full mirroring.
This is very instable, flickering, lagging... Useless but fun !
I saw a method with root to fix flickering but I'm not ready to root again if no one as a better solution.

Same problem here.
I figure out that I can't use different firmware from another country. I'm in Brazil, then I need Brazilian firmware in my phone. If I use another firmware my car don't recognize the apps Certification - doesnt matter if phone is root or not.
I'd like root my phone again but after December security update I think noone get root A5 again... .... I wanna change the mirrolink database and put there: android auto, google maps, waze.
You can use Samsung Car Mode - not very good, but fun. Problem: all whatsapp messages are read for you when you r driving, even when you dont want.

Hello
Did you find a solution to make work mirrorlink with root ?

Nope. I gave up.

Hello, i bought an app on google play that can launch any app on mirror link.
It's named "full mirror for mirrorlink" developped by SB-SOFTWARE.
Before pushasing the app, i looked for it on all apk plateforms but it's not available.
That works fine with youtube (maybe 0,5 sec sound delay).
On vlc, mx player, and other video players, i coudn't press play button.
Edit : no root needed

I finally can launch any app on mirror link in my car just doing what is describe in this video:

Without root!

P20Pro and Samsung Gear S3 watch

Got my new P20Pro today - coming from a Mate 10 Pro. Love the phone and everything works great except the Samsung gear app and my Samsung Frontier S3 watch (AT&T LTE version). The app downloads and i can pair the watch and restore my watch settings but when i try to open Samsung pay the Samsung pay gear plug-in doesn't install and if i try to look at watch faces or apps, I get an error "this device does not support gear" - any idea how to fix/troublshoot this?

Hi, we are all in the same situation.
We have to wait for Samsung to update gear app
Look in this thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-s3/themes/galaxy-apps-huawei-p20-t3774050

Thanks for pointing out that post - I hadn't thought to look in the p20 forums. I guess we'll have to wait for Samsung to update the Gear app. In the meantime, I was able to use appsharer to move the Samsung pay framework and Samsung pay gear plugin from my mate10 pro to the p20pro and install them without any problems (just after install, you need to clear cache/storage on both apps to reset them) so I have Samsung pay working fine on my gear d3 connected to the p20 pro -just missing ability to download new apps/watchfaces

Cool, happy for you if everything work well except watchface, so if you still have your mate 10 pro can you share the mms.apk for messaging please

I tried to find it and couldn't. No messaging app appears in the list - i didn't root my phone so don't know where/how to find individual apk's. I wanted to move that one too as the p20 doesn't come with a stock messaging app (so i'm using textra)

Download Pay Plug in from the net and install and it will work.

Hi,
On your Samsung Gear S3 Frontier (WiFi only version), if Samsung Pay is not working after pairing with Huawei P20 Pro due to no Samsung Pay Plugin available in the app, here is how I managed to make it work.
If you already reset and paired your watch, you can skip to Step 4.
1. Hard reset your Gear S3 (Turn off, press and hold Power button until you see the logo don't release the Power button, seconds later you will see the logo and a blue colored 'rebooting', once you see it repeatedly press on Power button until you see the bios-like like menu, by pressing the Power button you can browse the menu, stop at 'recovery' and keep pressing the Power button then quickly press the Home button, your watch will restart to its factory settings).
2. Download and install Samsung Gear app on your phone, get it from Play Store. Once you open the app, it may ask to install two more required apps, Gear S Plugin and Samsung Accessory Service.
3. Pair your watch and phone. So far nothing fancy.
4. Download and install Samsung Pay using your phone from apkmirror (a security question will pop up asking to allow to install an app from a third party, just accept).
5. On your watch, press and hold the Home button to start Samsung Pay, this will ask you to continue setup on your phone.
6. On your phone, Samsung Pay will start and may state an updated version of Samsung Pay is available for you watch version, accept and it finish updating on your watch.
7. Start Samsung Pay as in Step 5. At this point, the app on your phone asks to set a passcode or pin on your watch for security.
8. You are all set now and can add your credit/debit cards as usual.
This is my first post and thank you for your support and for an amazing XDA app.

P20 pro & S3
Hello,
This thread is a few months old now, does anyone know if there has been an update Samsung’s end? Just taken delivery of P20 pro and want the S3 watch mainly for its offline Spotify feature. Don’t want to pay £250 if it won’t work. Not interested in android pay (as my bank isn’t supported) but do want texts and WhatsApp to work. Any advice would be appreciated.

I have had the p20 pro since shortly after release and have had no issues with it's relationship with my S3 (non lte), it works seemlessly.
I wasn't aware of any issues, I have only just stumbled across this thread.

S3 & P20 Pro
Brilliant, thank you. I'll go and buy one then

Rooted Android 9, what is your working setup?

Guys, I've a rooted Moto Z2 force, I'm plannig to use it as an android auto device only. AA is not available in the play store, but I can sidelode any version (I've downloaded the 7.2.62).
I'm tried a couple of tools, AA Tweaker, AA installer, etc, but so far only the cartube application is showing in the car screen (but e.g. fermata auto is not)
I'm planning to use the some official AA applications
- spotify, gmaps, waze, abetterrouteplanner
and would like to have
-youtube, netflix and maybe carscanner on the car screen (in motion as well for the passengers)
Please share you working setup, which tools and which versions (including android auto) are you using with android 9 - or point me to a thread where it is already discussed

Hi.
I have a non root samsung note 9(android 9) with wireless AA set up to aftermarket smart module connected to OEM headunit in my peugeot. Uninstalled AA. Installed screen2auto with AA Ease. Downloaded and installed AA 6.6xxxx version. Activated developer options and selected download from unknown sources. Playstore forced update on my phone to latest version 7.1xxxx but kept original settings and third party apps. Enabled wireless projections on settings and this works quite well provided bluetooth pairing. So can use voice control to for maps, music apps and receive and send messages.

Thank you very much, the android version was the problem I've installed AA version 6.9.613744 (instead of the latest 7.*) and everything started working instantly.

Sorry to bring this topic up again, the solution works for me for a few days, than AA is not showing the extra apps anymore. If I uninstall and install android auto again, it works again for a few days. I have no idea why, is there a blacklist AA downloads?

My samsung note 9 is non root. I installed as described above and still have apps on galaxy note 8(android 9) and note 9 ( recently updated to android 10). You can try clearing cache of AA. But you should read through screen2auto rooted thread as you will probably find solution and/or somebody will offer good solution.

Yes, Google blocked again all 3rd party apps with Android Auto 7.1.
With 7.1 I have the 3rd party apps for about 2 minutes. If I don't start Android Auto in this time, I have to clear data and cache of Google Play Services and Android Auto and do all the setup again. That means I have to do this before every car ride.

Screen2auto 3.6.3 Xiaomi Note 8 pro black screen

Hi there, i have installed the screen2auto through the AAAD app, i did the right settings (i think so) and gave the permissions on Xiaomi Note 8 Pro (no root) but when i run the screen2auto 3.6.3 via Android auto i cannot see anything. If for example choose the instagram app or gmail app i can see only a black screen. Is there something i can do to resolve that issue? Or a good tutorial to watch and setup the right settings step by step?
Best regards.

Hi.
I have non rooted Samsung note 9 and using s2a 3.6.2 /wireless Android Auto connection in my car. I have been using it for the last 5 months and it works very well and the s2a app has not dropped off my AA apps. I started by uninstalling AA and installing older version of AA 6.6.xxx . Playstore forced update to newer version of AA. Under settings menu tap the 'Version' 10 times to enter developer settings. Under these setting select(tick) 'download from unknown sources', 'developer mode' and 'wireless projection'.
I know there is a newer version of S2A but I am using 3.6.2 version and will not upgrade because 3.6.3 may not work on my phone. Download S2A 3.6.2 and AA Ease page 94 of this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...rroring-only-for-root-devices.4062787/page-94.
Install S2A with AA Ease and this should install in Android Auto and S2A should show in app list or as one of apps under AA Version.
This has worked for me and not had to reinstall it on a non rooted samsung note 9. I can watch youtube, bbc iplayer but only get sound on netflix because of DRM protection. Also try AAAD because I paid for pro version and Carstream and Fermata Auto work on my phone/car head unit.
