I cannot figure out how to get into dev options to enable usb debugging when on a 4.2.2 stock sense rom. I know you're supposed to tap build number in about, but I've tapped everything and nothing pops up.
edit: nvm figured it out
Tap build number 7 or 8 times. It's there.

Thank you! They certainly did a good job hiding it this time.
Does anyone know where to get Moto X device art?
Art as in artwork? Check Google.
If you're talking about the ART runtime, then you need to enable developer mode.
Goto settings->about phone->build number. Tap that box several times and you should see a message that you're now a developer.
Now hit back and you should see developer settings above about phone.
Tap developer settings, then tap the toggle button at the top right to turn the settings on. Scroll down until you see runtime. It'll say Dalvik. Tap that and you should be able to select ART. Once you confirm your setting, the phone will reboot.
Once it reboots, your phone will show a small box that says optimizing apps. Don't touch anything and let the phone finish its thing. Once it completes, all of the apps should be running using the ART runtime.

Device art like http://developer.android.com/distribute/promote/device-art.html except for the Moto X.
What you're looking for is called "mockup". I googled "Moto X mockup", and found a link to a post right here:

I was just calling it what it is called on the official Android website.

Well, it's not like the one and only name is mandatory. "Mockup" just makes it easier to search for, at the time.
Hi,
As I'm going to move from carplay to android auto in a few weeks I'd like to ask every user with an android auto compatible headunit a simple.. maybe silly.. question
When connecting my iphone to the car headunit, it automatically switches to the carplay source and displays carplay. This for every maker video I've found, Pioneer, Kenwood.. the behaviour is Connect the phone->switches to carplay automatically.
The question is.. does Android auto do the same? In every video I saw the phone when connected displays a screen like "touch android auto icon on your headunit to start android auto". I'm starting to think that by design android auto wants you to manually select it from the headunit screen... :|
Would someone tell me if there's a setting in the app? Or share his/hers experience?
I'd like to know expecially how it works on anything not from Pioneer (Sony, Kenwood or manufacturer specific like Seat, Honda).. Is there a way to switch automatically to android auto on connection, like carplay does?
From my experience, my phone automatically opens and uses Android Auto when I plug it in. Only exception was the first time it connected, as I had to allow it permissions on the phone.

Apple in their arrogance pushes you to use it..Google assumes you want to choose. Me I want to have AA auto start on the hu. Honestly they should provide the user with the choice to auto start the interface app on the hu.

Me too. So it is as I assume, android auto doesn't autostart :| (only on pioneer headunits it does, but it seems a pioneer choice)
I found an interesting option in the developer settings, you can enable video focus on startup, the result of this setting is that the screen on my skoda columbus headunit is switch automatically to android auto. Without the setting I have to go via the menu to see this screen.

Can't find this setting in Developer Options. Can you tell me what version of Android you're using and the specific name of the option? Thanks.

Developer options in the Android Auto app, not the main Android settings.
Tap 10 times on the blue title bar in the about screen to enable it.

Is there also any kind of command (ADB, Tasker...) to request video focus on Android Auto?
A similar question:
Isn't any way to auto start screen2auto? I see that android auto can start in sygic automatically. If i rename internally screen2auto, to same name as sygic, and Uninstall sygic, is there any possibility to work, and auto start in screen2auto instead of sygic?
Thanks,

This sounds like a good idea.
Did you try that?

Up until recently google had blocked car stream via updates to Android auto and play services. The only way to keep car stream working was to keep those two apps rolled back to certain versions and not take updates. Problem is play services auto updates regardless of settings for such, and will randomly disable YouTube auto until roll back again.
Well thekirankumar updated carstream to version 2.0.0 and with it brought instructions to bypass these blocks. You can find it here at his github. The instructions were a little complicated for your average user and even then contained some uneeded steps. So I'm going to summarize....
Update play services and Android auto (woo!).
Install carstream (Android auto) from the github link above.
Then follow his guide step 1-8, I'll qoute...
"1. Start Android Auto on your phone (the phone is not attached to anything at this time)
2. Click on the menu on the top left (three bars)
3. Click "About"
The following steps may already be done. I am including them for reference for newbies.
4. If developer mode is not enabled, click on the bar "About Android Auto" 10 times.
5. Click on the three dot menu (on the top right)
6. Click on "Developer settings"
7. Click on Application Mode and set to "Developer". Also go to the bottom of the developers settings and make sure "Unknown Sources" is checked.
8. Click back, and then go to the three dot menu. Click "Start head unit server"."
Now connect the phone to your car and accept any permissions it may ask you for.
Disconnect the phone, click stop on the head unit server from your notification bar.
Then follow his steps 20-23, I'll qoute...
"20. Now, go to your apps, and start Carstream
21. Click on "Unlock[Root]" and grant Root access when prompted (screenshot below)
22. Reboot the phone
23.Once the phone reboots, connect the phone to your car, and start Android Auto. Go to the speedometer thing (on the lower right side of the screen) and see if Carstream is listed. If it is, give thanks below. If it isn't, I don't know what to tell you."
All done
Worked for me! ?

While watching the video, go full screen. When full screen, tap on the video and a little box on the right side will pop up that say either "fil, contain, or fit" I think. Tap on the box to cycle through viewing options
Superb...work fantastic with me.
It's an error on clicking Unlock [Root] in Carstream. I granted Root permissions at the prompt. Still it's a permission denied error.

Make sure you have busybox. Though This message usually occurs when the apps aren't updated (either Android auto or play services). Reboot and try again.

It Depends. If your bootloader is already unlocked, you won't loose anything by rooting. If your bootloader is locked then unlocking it (to allow root) will erase everything.

Does the phone have to be rooted?
After seeing the articles about the new files being in the latest beta version I took a dive in and looked to see how to enable it. Here's some basic steps for that.
1. You will need to be rooted and on the latest beta. "7.3.120244-release.daily"2. Download a database editor, I used SQLite Editor.3. Open SQLite and under "apps" section navigate to Google Play Services and open it.4. Scroll down to phenotype.db and select it.5. Look for "flags" and open it.6. On the top select "set filter" input Coolwalk__enabled.7. change all bootVal from 0 to 1.8. Now search for cakewalk and do the same.9. Lastly search for MirrorApp__enabled and change those.
Now just restart your phone and connect to Android auto. You will need to enable coolwalk on the head unit settings. To switch from full screen and condensed press and hold the new UI home button. I need another phone to show off cast, but it does work. You just can't do Netflix/Hulu what not. You also need to be in park. I haven't found what to change to eliminate that. Anyone else wants to help give it a shot.
UPDATE: if you have sqlite3 installed with magisk you can also create a trigger like so in termux.
Code:
Su
Sqlite3
.open /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/phenotype.db
CREATE TRIGGER after_update
AFTER UPDATE ON Flags
BEGIN
UPDATE Flags SET boolVal=1 WHERE name='Coolwalk__enabled';UPDATE Flags SET boolVal=1 WHERE name='MirrorApp__enabled';UPDATE Flags SET boolVal=1 WHERE name LIKE 'Coolwalk__%' AND boolVal=0;
END;
works fine, thank you
working! maps looks a bit bugged when navigation is on (can't see road indications) but probably is just a matter of time they fix it... thanks bro!!
I enabled all the flags but can't get the option...anything I'm missing? I'm on Android 12 and latest AA 7.3 beta
@niccotaglia are you using exactly the android auto version as described "7.3.120244-release.daily"? if not you should try this

I was using 7.3.120444. Will try 120244
Works great! I tried it on both the 7.3.120244 and the 7.3.120444 beta version and both worked. I did have to revert all the tweaks from AA AIO Tweaker and uninstall the app first to get it to work.
Still not working...I tried everything imaginable but nothing works.

Can someone give me more information about the Cast function?

Which option to use in AIO Tweaker to enable it? Did you still change the boolVal using SQLEditor for play service?

These 3. And no, i didn't do any manual database editing
Perhaps we can use the cast function for Screen2Auto and Fermata in the future as Google always tries to block 3rd party apps.

Yes, I randomly got the same black screen too, although the bottom bar is still visible/clickable. Restart AA will be back to normal. I think it's just a bug in the AA beta.
