Hi! Im wondering if there is a adapter to plug any HDMI device to an AA headunit? I think the dongle must run an Android OS which let the headunit think there is a AA smartphone connected. But the dongle will stream the HDMI input via USB as AA stream.
I searched for HDMI to Android Auto adapter but there are only tons of adapters to convert an android headunit to Android Auto and CarPlay compabillity.
If such a dongle doesn’t exist yet... may it be possible to realize this with a raspberry pi?
Also interested in this, please someone answer.
I don't know if the product below is what you need.

If you need to link the Android host to the screen with MDMI, you need to confirm whether your Android host supports this function.

Hi,
does anyone know if the P9 has the displayport functionality available in the USB-C port? I need a HDMI output to connect to my Pioneer Appradio so need to make sure this is available on the P9.
I think you only need a MHL adapter, like this
Hey guys, at the moment i have a Tuvva KSD7813 Head unit which has a HDMI input and USB for MHL, however my problem at the moment is that my Galaxy S8+ doesn't support MHL, nor does the 2016 Galaxy J5 i use for music in the car.
I've tried using Crankshaft on a mate's Raspberry Pi which seems to run fine on the HDMI input to the stereo, however it doesn't recognize the touch screen just on HDMI alone and i don't think Crankshaft will have coding to recognize touch gestures etc coming from USB as a USB keyboard and mouse showed no results.
So i was wondering if anyone on here could think of anything else to try to get AA running on this particular stereo, at least until i can afford a decent Pioneer head unit in future.

Hopefully someone can come up with some ideas
I'm trying to make a dedicated device to plug into my Pioneer Headunit that connects via USB and run android auto. I can find an apk to run android auto, but when connecting USB A to USB A the Head Unit (Pioneer AVH-2330NEX) doesn't see it as a phone or connect. Is there anyway to get android auto to connect to car stereo?
Thank you
Hello, I have an idea how we can make the current Android Auto completely WIRELESS.
Idea is as follows:
Plug a micro Dongle in the car's USB port.
The Dongle will essentially be a WiFi Tranciever. (it may need custom code/firmware etc.)
The Dongle will talk to the Android Phone over WiFi (Because Bluetooth is already being used by Android Auto).
A custom program will be running on the Android phone to send ALL USB Data to the Dongle using WiFi.
Suggested Dongle models:
Xbee, Arduino with WiFi module, any other similar board, possibly any cheap Chinese WiFi USB dongle available on Ebay/Aliexpress.
Things to consider:
The Car's infotainment must recognize the Dongle when it is plugged in as a "USB device" (not a USB Stick/Flash Drive !!!)
The Dongle may need custom code/firmware that will start sending packets to the car's infotainment as soon as it is connected/powered up/car ignition is on, in order to Emulate a phone running android auto.
In the mean time, the app running on the phone will already be connected to the Dongle and the two will be talking to each other.
I you have any other suggestions, leave a comment bellow.
PS: Such devices (USB Over the Air) are actually available on the market, but are quite bulky. We need something smaller.
But even if it is big, we can use a Micro USB plug like this one with flat cable, that will run in the Phone tray, where the board will be hidden so it will not be visible at all!!! :good::laugh:

Just cut the other end of the flat cable if needed and solder as necessary.
Again, if you have specific ideas/suggestions leave a comment bellow.

Hi,
I want to connect my android tv box (XIAOMI MI BOX) to android auto car.
For this purpose, I'm looking for some way to stream video from hdmi, may be using some "HDMI TO USB ADAPTER" or similar device.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Nothing to do with Android Auto, but assuming you have RCA(Yellow) video input, you can get HDMI to RCA converts and just use the aux in. If you really mean using AA, then I'm guessing you'd need to root and try to install AA mirror. I doubt HDMI to USB video would work.
