I just updated to 6.0.1 and it's working like a charm. However, there's a new button in the selection context menu: the clipboard. I already use Native Clipboard, which looks fantastic and has more features than the Samsung one. I was able to disable the clipboard package using
Code:
pm hide com.samsung.android.clipboarduiservice
pm hide com.samsung.clipboardsaveservice
but it does not remove the option from the context menu, only renders it useless. Is there a way to disable the context menu item?

Damn, me too
do you need to be rooted to do this? (how would I enter this code?))
THANKS!
Tks
On other Samsung devices with Android 9.0 Pie (like Galaxy S8 or S9) there is a Secure Launch feature in Settings -> Biometrics and security menu. But seems on S10 this feature is removed. Instead of it i see only "Strong protection" setting in "Other security settings" which is turned on by default. But seems this setting is not the same as Secure Launch, bcz after phone reboot i see password prompt on my wallpaper as a background, and it possible means that at this moment data partition contains my wallpaper is already decrypted (to display wallpaper OS should get access to data partition, isn't it?). So, S10 has lower security than other Samsung devices, or how it can be explained? Why Secure Launch is absent, any suggestions?
Android Auto - XLauncher Unlocked v2.0.1
Custom Android Auto launcher, unleash your AA app, unlock more features!
- Source code
- Documentation
- Releases
- XDA Thread
Features
NameDescriptionRoot requiredXposed requiredDefaultSet the next used launch option as defaultClassicLaunch the Android Auto settings, with the classic/stable styleMaterial3Launch the Android Auto settings, with the hidden/experimental Material3 styleDebugLaunch various hidden Android Auto debug screensXposed ModuleUnlock more 3th party Android Auto apps! (e.g. Fermata, OsmAnd, S2A, ...)
Description
XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app, to unlock more features in your Android Auto app.
It can launch existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
Classic can be launched without root.
If using the Xposed module,
then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it,
to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid,
which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,
you should not have to be afraid of "having to wipe AA data to test".
Because no AA data is touched / no AA files are edited in a persistent way.
Default "launch option"
The "Set the next used launch option as default" check-mark can be used to
automatically launch the "launch option" behind the button you click after checking the check-mark.
After a default "launch option" is configured, the next times you open XLauncher Unlocked,
it will automatically open that "launch option" for you.
This works for every "launch option" (Classic, Material3, Debug options),
and can easily be re-configured by selecting another "launch option" with the check-mark still configured.
Clearing/resetting the usage of the default "launch option" is as easy as un-checking the check-mark

New v2.0 release is out which added a bunch of launcher functions!
You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases/tag/v2.0
Thank you. Interesting app, I will have to play and investigate
I use PlayStore and Play Protect did not let me to install.
I could have to disable Play Protect but I repackaged your app and installed pretending it as it was installed by PlayStore (screenshot).
Now it runs ok and Play protect does not complain
I have just an observation about the main screen. Buttons don't fit to my display (probably since I use enlarged text) and there is no way to scroll and to read the cut-off part on the right side.
Screenshot attached
The other Material screens I tried were ok
Thank you for the feedback @zgfg
Just reworked the installation instructions,
now pointing users to KingInstaller to install the app.
I'll try to figure out a fix to make the UI display correctly on enlarged screens.
However, scrolling up/down appears to work when I enlarge my screen
What's the difference between Classic, Default and Material3? Do you have screenshots?

Classic launches AA with the 'classic' design, Material3 with the Material 3 design - screenshots
I suppose Default can make Material to become default style for the future launches (not necessarily from this launcher) but I don't want to wipe AA data to test

Classic = The old / default user interface.
Material3 = The new / hidden / experimental user interface.
Check the attached files for comparison screenshots.

XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app which doesn't modify any Android Auto related things (files/settings).
It simply launches existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
And if using the Xposed module, then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it, to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid, which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,
you should not have to be afraid of "having to wipe AA data to test".
Because no AA data is touched / no AA files are edited in a persistent way.

I know, you've reported this earlier, v2.0 is not optimized to handle screen enlargement.
Work Around - GUI cropped on enlarged screens
To make the GUI display correctly, please open your Settings app and go to:
Display => Display size and text => Display size => Reduce the size by a few clicks.
Restore the Display size again once you're done playing with XLauncher Unlocked
and once you have a default "launch option" configured.

Thank you very much for the screenshots.
I thought the app will change the Android Auto view in the car. But the app changes the Android Auto phone app. Thank you very much for the clarification.
Maybe I missed in the menus... Is it possible to have the option to switch on/off CoolWalk view in the car
It is possible by AA AIO Tweaker but I don't know is it just some setting for AA or AIO Tweaker has to tweak the AA db
New v2.0.1 release is out which fixed the non-scroll-able Debug "launch options" section on enlarged screens!
You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases/tag/v2.0.1

It's not possible with AAXLU (Android Auto XLauncher Unlocked),
but afaik it should be as simple as renaming following file at
/data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared/
- From: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb
- To: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb.bak (Or smth similar, al long as the original "doesn't exist")
Then close Android Auto / reboot.
That file is at least what was required to make CoolWalk / TaskBar-Widgets work / appear on MicroG.

Thanks a million for this app/ Xposed module. All I needed was to make "unauthorized apps" to work, and until recently, the only way to do that was cumbersome phenotype.db edits with triggers (battery drain!) and wiping AA data.
Working perfectly for me, count me in for a follower/ tester/ anything I can do to help!
News/update, only for MicroG users:
aaxlu (v2.0.1) now comes pre-included with aa4mg (v0.6)
If you manually installed aaxlu before,
then please uninstall aaxlu, before you install aa4mg v0.6.

I think I must be missing something. I have root and the lsposed module installed etc. I have Screen2Auto installed but the app isn't visible in Android Auto. What are the steps to get third party apps to work? Thanks
Edit: more info. Have magisk, zygisk and lsposed module activated

S2A is by far the most restricted app.
I've posted all restrictions/by-passes which are within my knowledge in the S2A thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...r-root-devices.4062787/page-147#post-88392893
With those steps I've been able to get S2A showing up reliably.
Maybe I've missed something but what is the purpose of this app, other than to change the look of AA settings? What other 'hidden' features does it show, other than to be found in Developer settings? Thanks.
