Will VMOS let me run the apps requiring a rooted phone to mirror my cell phone to my 2020 Toyota Camry display.
I have Android Auto and can mirror only a handful of programs like WAZE. I would like to mirror all the video programs
on my cell phone if possible. At the moment I don't want to Root my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
Thanks
Ken

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!
Hi.
Been reading on this forum about android auto.
My main reason for rooting is to get aa mirroring.
With all the post out there about this i need help to clarify somethings:
I have the latest play store version.
I have huawei mate 20 pro with root. (9.0.0.208 stock, with root)
I have a brand new kenwood dnx7018dab with support for android auto.
Now the main question:
1. What apps do i need to get mirroring?
I have installed whats seems to be the latest aamirror.apk.
I have installed aaunlock.apk and aa phenotype patcher.
I get the extra icon down in my right corner of android auto screen in my headunit, but no aamirror option.
My goal is to get Netflix, DreamTV, Snapchat, firefox, youtube and other 3 party apps up on my headunit. (Aftermarket Kenwood)
Can anyone help me with what apps i need? Do not think i need/want carstream..
Sorry for the input if the answer is already present in this forum.
My android auto version is 4.1 xxxx
Regards,
Kenneth - Norway
Like the title says. Google must have implemented something in the new Android auto update, the one with the new UI. I've been using AA Mirror to cast my phone's screen to my 2016 Sierra for a while now with no issues. But just got the latest update with the new UI. When you use the AA Unlock .apk to unlock the feature it disabled the ability to even use Android auto on your vehicles head unit. If you already have Android Auto open on your radio you will lose the ability to operate android auto from the screen. The default android auto home screen will still remain on your radio but none of the touch functions of the screen will work. If you don't have it open before you use the AA Unlock .apk to use that feature, then Everytime you click on on the Android auto icon on your radio it ignores android auto completely on the radio but opens the phone version on your phone.
This sucks. I like having FOX news in the mornings on the ride to work.
Uhm, I don't know if you're aware of AA Phenotype Patcher. AA Unlock stopped working a while ago. You should use Phenotype Patcher. It works just fine for unlocking 3rd party apps. I'm actually impressed on how much time you had apps unlocked with AA Unlock, actually, cause after a while apps would just disappear.
I would also re-install Android Auto and wipe cache of Google Play Services before proceeding.
Same issue. Just tried AA Mirror and AA Phenotype Patcher yesterday (latest versions). No way to have them work...
:/
I am using as mirror and pheontype patcher and the sept 3 android auto everything works just fine but did work better a bit before the head unit got updated not sure how to roll back a head unit. My truck is a 2019 Chevy zr2 Colorado.
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.
Hello all.
If I look on the internet for "Android auto alternative" then I get apps for on phone itselves, that use phone screen.
For unrooted android smartphone.
I want to know if their is a (prefer open source like f-droid apps) real alternative for android auto, that shows apps on the car entertainment system (in my case a Subaru from 2020).
I don't want android auto because:
- I need to install google apps, but I removed as much google and huawei apps as possible on my huawei mate 20x 5G.
- google decide what apps are accesssable/supported by android auto.
-with every android auto app update it is fingers crossed if the used apps are still available (for example Signal app suddenly gone from car screen).
So what none google app can I use to get my phone screen on my car multimedia system that supports android auto.
You can try MirrorLink if supported. But there is no other alternative as far as I know.
Unfortunately.
