i found out u can access all the third party apps from Android Auto if you clear cache and clear data for android auto before you connect to your car. You dont have to downgrade your android auto. The problem is, you need to it everytime you want to connect your phone to your car, it just annoying because u need to setup android auto from the start.

Cloning Fermata Auto v1.8.9 in Lucky Patcher then installing the cloned app with King Installer seems to be working for me. I'm using Android Auto v7.1.614563-release

Добрый вечер Андрей. Программа супер, работает на отлично! Просьба - можно увеличить шрифт часов в два раза, сильно мелко отображаются часы в версии 1.8.9

    Hi guys!
    Just an update, I've been using the procedure below for about two months and still working fine.
    I've just updated from 7.5 to latest 7.8 beta and those permissions were kept, didn't have to make any change, and I still see Fermata listed.

    Thanks,
    Marcos

    Hi guys!

    Doing more tests... it seemed that only working with shared_prefs eventually did not work. I made further changes and so far (~ 3 days and multiple force closes/reboots) everything still working fine.

    1. I noticed some files being created under phenotype/shared dir. This one specifically, com.google.android.libraries.consentverifier#com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb, is not present right after clear data but gets downloaded later on.

    I emptied it with "echo "" > com.google.android.libraries.consentverifier#com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb" - if it does not exist you can use touch to create an empty file - and also changed ownership of the entire shared/ dir to root and set permissions to 400 (only root user can read them). So far everything working.

    I also saw that on the shared_prefs when I made them read only AA created new files. Maybe we can let them with default permissions and settings can be changed - I left them since I set it up the way I like it and don't think will need to change anything later.
    My AA release is 7.5.121304, a beta from APKmirror.

    Commands to test, right after clear data:

    chown -R root:root /data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared touch /data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared/com.google.android.libraries.consentverifier#com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb chmod -R 400 /data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared/* chmod 600 /data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared

    Let me know how it goes for you, I think I might be on the right track here!

    Thanks,
    Marcos

    Fermata stop working on 7.0 too were I use few day ago. I think Google blacklisted it, maybe try to rename package name can be a workaround

    Seems like that :( Package renaming works, but I don't think it's a good solution. Google has many ways to block any app.
