[Q] Any luck with Android Auto? [/Q]

Today I received the Pioneer 4100NEX to replace my water damaged 8000NEX in my truck. It's said to be compatible with Android 5.0+ after installing the AA app, but I'm not having any luck with my T-mo Note4. I've tried CM12, Slim and PacMan ROMs, each of them get recognized by the head unit and automatically launches AA, but the very first page "accept/terms" on the HU has overlapping text and no way to get around it. I installed the latest firmware with no change.
Has anyone else had better luck in getting the Note 4 to work with an AA compatible system? Not that it matters, but my old Nexus 5 works with AA without a hitch.

I have just bought pioneer AVH-X8750BT and I connected my unrooted N910f and android auto works great.
Must say I have it only few hours now. Have to play a bit with it.

Try going stock and see.. Bet ya it works. A lot of devs remove to much from roms and remove functional stuff needed to make devices work. Took me going back and forth to figure out why my heart rate monitor was not working.
BAD ASS NOTE 4

Last I read the Tmo variant didn't have a stock version of 5.0, which is a requirement for Android Auto. I'll try it though. I have nothing to lose at this point.
No luck. I got the "compatibility error" when trying to get Android Auto from the Play Store.

Not sure if it will work but try editing build prop and make it say 5.0 and see if you can fool it.

Android Auto directly on phone

Is it possible to run Auto on the phone (without head unit)? I'm asking because all I have is a phone holder.

Yes.

I don't have a tablet to connect it to, if that's what I need. I was trying to run it directly on my phone from my phone. I don't think I had any idea what I was doing with the app, but when I clicked 'self', it took me to aa with a message saying my device isn't compatible.

If you look around on the innernets you can probably find a file called media-browser-simulator.apk which is the AA "viewer". It runs on 5.0 and above.
Don't ask me for it, I don't have it.

It's on one of Google's developer sites and it's as awful as the first version released around November because it IS still the same version.
At Google IO they said they'd release a better one later this year.

It's an update of the google keyboard app...it will come to 6P...it's just a matter of time...this way you can have it now. It may take days before you even see the update in the playstore.

That is very strange, I am not sure why it will do that....I know Google released an updated version yesterday, I believe, so it may have been a bug.

After I update to Gboard, there is no option to use my picture as keyboard theme anymore. I can delete or edit my own custom theme, but can't make new one. Can anyone help?

Is there anyway to fix 'emojis data not found' I can't search emojis coz of it.
Thank u

Everytime I change the setting it always says Gboard has stopped and I can't disable vibration keyboard. I flashed the pixel launcher and that was happen

Ask Any Questions

So instead of making separate threads, I thought it might be helpful making this thread to ask questions.
I'll start of: How long does it take for the global version to go on sale after the Chinese one?

I current have a OnePlus 5T but I would like to upgrade to this phone (Mi 8) I was wondering where can I buy this phone and ship to the US? I know there's not market or anything. But I don't want to to pay double price either from a third party.
Thanks!

Average sot without heavy gaming?

Is it treble enabled?

sure, it comes pre installed with android 8.1

Hi guys. Since this is a Q&A thread, i'm wondering:
I bought my Mi 8 today, china version. Will I still be able to flash global software on it, or just the chinese firmware?
And when it comes to flashing AOSP, will there be any difference?
Thanks a lot.
I'm not a noot in flashing, I've had Nexus for the last couple years,and i'm quite confident with it. Just not aware if it will be same rom for both versions or not.

hello. does the samsung amoled screen of mi 8 deteriorates? easily? is there a way to prevent it? im having second thoughts of buying it because of it. i hoping it will remain same quality after 3 years like ips.

- Does someone (especially from germany) tried WifiCalling? Does it work?
- Does someone tried a USB Power Delivery 3.0 Charger, how fast (how many watts) does it charge?

Do you mean any form of burn in? I have it since 12/06 and no burn in at all. (what a surprise )
I think it will not have much troubles with burn in, because it has full screen gestures (so no buttons which can burn in).
The navigation bar eventually can burn in, but I think that will be not annoying.

does it have fingerprint gesture? always listening ok google?

Mi 8 is released in hong kong, and reading the site, it suggests that the nfc wallet can be used for services and specifically mentions google pay. Does this mean that there is a global rom now for mi 8, as google pay requires google services and afiak no chinese rom has these installed?
https://www.mi.com/hk/mi8/

I'm guessing it doesn't ship with Google Play. Is this hard to install? Do you need to unlock bootloader for the eventual global rom?

Google Services arent hard to install. You just need the Google Installer Apk which installs you all services, without the need off unlocking bootloader or root the devices before.
I dont know if you need an unlocked bootloader for the global rom - I would say no but i can be wrong.

Using VOG-AL00 in Europe (Spain). What works and what doesnt works?

Hi! I finally decided to register and participate.
A good friend of mine is in Shanghai right know, and I ask him to buy the P30 PRO there for me, since it´s only 590€ at the moment.
I´ll be posting my personal experience with the chinesse version on this post, but first I wanted to ask some questions.
- Chinese version is ONLY labeled as VOG AL00 right?
- What can I expect? Any problems installing google services or using other language than chinese?
- How do the chinese versions of huawei phones usually do with firmware updates?
- Anything I should know?
Thank you all!

also would like to know..
also VOG AL00 is one chinese models but there more.. for example from GSM Arena Versions: ELE-L29, ELE-L09 (Global); ELE-AL00, ELE-TL00 (China)
but I think there are more than just those 2 maybe an AL10 or something like that. I'm pretty sure if it is not going to start with L (after the dash) then it is not intl

Hi there, I bought a VOG-AL00 as well, but I'm currently in Brazil. Everything seems to work fine besides "wallets" (NFC payments does not work) and "Ok Google Voice Match". The voice match will only work when you have a Google app opened on your screen (such Maps, Assistance, and etc.).
I really would like to find some way to fix these issues, specially my NFC payments.

are there anyway to fix that problem with NFC ? I have the same VOG-AL00 model and live in Brazil whowever I cand return the cellphone to change to a global one..

I also have a P30 Pro from China (also a VOG-AL00) with all the Chinese software on it without Play Store.
What is your experience with this phone? Is the hardware exactly the same? Any problems? Did you flash it?
Because I'm wondering if it is possible to flash it to a normal global firmware. I've included a screenshot of the device specs. I would like to use it here in Europe without the Chinese software. Any advice is welcome. Thanks in advance.

Didn't buy it in the first place, but just installing Google play is the best option that's available I guess.
