Screen2Auto - New app for AA smartphone mirroring (only for root devices).

[ai5g]

I still can't make it work. AA did not show the s2a icon, the problem that many here have.
I rolled back google play services to 21.24.23 (can't rembermber where this version number comes from) and AA to 7.0.614104 as proposed by jimikoukou in post #1784
I have blocked google and google play store with AFWall+ as recommended by sosimple in post #2378.
Now in AA the s2a icon appears (when I start AA on the phone), but I cannot use it in the car anymore.

Once I attach the phone to the car and select AnrdoidAuto in my head unit, AA starts and immediately asks for an update. I cannot skip this update, and when I start it, it "updates" forever.

Any ideas how I can stop AA from forcing an update?

Detach it from the Play Store.

I always send this command using a PC, otherwise the warning will pop up every time you use S2A

"Disable cast warning"

Adb shell appops set ru."whatever S2A is renamed" PROJECT_MEDIA allow

How do I find out what "s2a is renamed" to? I would like to eliminate the cast warning. Thanks in advance.

It's not about the app name but its package name. Eg, LP (treated as warez on XDA, hence I'm not writing its full name here, ads a single letter to the end of the package name when renaming)

If not familiar with the concept of package names, please google about

Also google (or maybe even look to the Playstore) for Package Name Viewer/Manager or similar apps that will make you easier to read the package name for any app, incl. the S2A (and specially when its package name was renamed)

I cannot help you further since I stopped using S2A, but 8-9 months ago when I was installing it took me 15 minutes to google and find what was needed

I understand everything you said including LP. Thank you should be able to get it now.

I have successfully installed lsposed-zygisk and hidemyapplist ist running, but after klicking "Manage templates" and then "create a blacklist template" and "edit list", all installed apps show up except from Android auto.
(I have basically tried to follw the recommendations from luiscaproducer in post #2011)

How can I detach AA from the play store with lsposed?

AA was installed via Ghost Commander, this is also shown under "App Details" in AAs app info. Maybe this is the reason for not finding it in HMA's app list. The reason for trying this was that I AA asks for an update once I have attached the phone to my car's head unit.

What version of HideMyApplist are you running? I'm on v1.6.1 and I do not need to create a blacklist. I simply create my template, choose my app(s) to hide (making sure "Show System Apps" is checked), Enable all hide methods, and finally, from Select Effective Apps, I choose Google Play Store, again making sure "Show System Apps" is checked.

The latest, "Final" HMA is v2 3.2 (from Jan 2022):

V2.3.2 最终版本 / Final Version 更新日志： 添加 syscall 拦截 移除 maps 拦截（因为没有意义。UI懒得删了） 支持 Zygisk（一定记得先删除旧的 Magisk 模块！） 距离上个版本发布已经过了很长一段时间。由于各种琐事，本项目将停止更新，这也意味着 V2.3.2 将可能是本项目的最后一个版本，不过仍然存在很多已知 bug（比如如果 Xposed 模...

It takes Create Blacklist Template, then Edit list, etc

Btw, about yours v1.6.1 from Mar 2021 - with which version of Magisk are you running (maybe that's HMA for Riru)?

Fair enough. The older version works for me...and since I gave up on s2a myself, it really doesn't matter anymore. I have no other reason to hide any apps from the Play Store.

 

[ai5g]

Thank you zgfg, this was indeed my mistake.

Well, it didn't solve the problem though, AA ist still asking for an update once I am connecting the phone to my cars head unit.

I gave up from S2A too but I use Fermata and CarTube hence still detaching AA from Playstore (also YT because of Vanced). And hiding some other apps but not from Playstore

Anyway, I'm just curious, your old HMA 1.6.1 was released before Magisk v25. What version of Magisk are you running?
What is your LSPosed module version (maybe Riru-LSPosed)?

Do you see AA in Playstore as installed or not?

If Playstore does not show as installed then you have detached. But when you open AA it connects by itself to Google and if that's too old version Google forces to be updated

What's your version of AA?

PS: My AA 7.4.620964 does not ask for update when I connect to Head unit (with the latest Play Services I successfully use Fermata and CarTube)

Magisk v 24.3
LSPosesd 1.6.5

No need to update since phone is running well

Hello,

I have a galaxy S8+ root Magysk with the Rom Lightrom android 9.

When I launch sc2auto I have nothing happening, Android auto seems to be frozen.

Do you have any idea?

 

[sosimple]

Any ideas how I can stop AA from forcing an update?

Have you try do the update? I don't know if AA works with last update but, i don't think you have any other choice than to update. All those tricks are so AA dont force you to update. But if it does force you, i also haven't find any way to make it work without updating..

So what is his secret? This was made 2 days ago with AA 7.8 on a non-rooted phone:

 

[gullzway]

Just updated Android Auto in the playstore to version 7.7.622134-release. Unrooted Pixel 6 Pro and Screen2Auto still working.

Installed months ago using AAEASE.
