I think this is a great app!!
For all those having problems with the app, ii you are on Android 10, go back to Magisk 20.4.

You have to use an app like tasker to capture the button inputs and direct them specifically to youtube

Hi all
Another issue, i managed to launch Google maps out of AA, but the problem is the start button doesn't respond after getting directions while if i disconnected the phone from AA it works.....
Thanx in advance for any help

Why you should use YouTube if carstream works perfect without stream2auto this app causes to many problems .

Sorry if it has been asked, but is there an English version of screen2echo. I have no clue what I am looking at. Would love to use my second phone without a sim in the car permanently. Thank you

after google translate , I faced same issue one time , reconnect your phone again on your car and close/exit AA from there, after cable disconnection phone works smoothly.

Thanks, but I already ended up Factory resetting that phone,Moto Z3 Play, couldnt fix the screen issue. Now Im using a Moto G stylus and Screen2Auto isnt working, doesn't show up in AA. May be because I'm on Magisk 22. Not worth it for me to downgrade, I'll just use my spare iphone SE with carplayenable in my Truck for now. Maybe when this app,or another, becomes more stable and easier to use I'll take another look.

I need some help with a 2 phone setup.

My car phone (CT) is a rooted LG G2 (Android 7.1.1 with no data/cell plan). My primary phone (PT) is an unrooted Galaxy S7. My car allows multiple phones to be connected by Bluetooth to my headunit. However, only one phone (primary) can be set for both incoming and outgoing calls. All the other phones are incoming calls only. I connect my PT for incoming and outgoing calls; and my CT gets automatically connected and set for incoming calls only.

This works pretty good with one exception. I can't make outgoing phone calls from within AA . If I do a search using Google Assistant and try to phone a number I found I get a "Voice commands not available right now" message. I can make and receive phone calls using my car's Bluetooth connection to my PT.

I tried freezing my CT Bluetooth with various apps but they would still let my CT connect to my car's Bluetooth. So I installed Titanium Backup and purchased the Pro key. There are 2 Bluetooth system apps on my CT: Bluetooth MIDI Service 7.1.1 and Bluetooth Share 7.1.1. I can freeze the MIDI service and Bluetooth still works but my CT still connects to my car for incoming calls. However, if I freeze Bluetooth Share the Bluetooth gets completely disabled.

The main reason I use Screen2Auto is so I can display my radar detector app on my headunit. The app needs to be connected to my radar detector by Bluetooth. So my CT Bluetooth needs to be enabled.

Is freezing Bluetooth supposed to be the same thing as disabling it?

Should I expect to be able to make phone calls from within AA with the 2 phone setup if my CT doesn't have a cell/data plan?

Is there some setting I'm missing in my AA CT to allow me to make outgoing calls with the 2 phone setup?

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

I just found this thread today. After some tweaking and reinstalling, I am able to get video to my car's screen. I have a Moto Z3 Play, Magisk 22.0, and a Pioneer AVH-2500. I did this:
1: install AA Phenotype Patcher 0.85
2: install AndroidAuto v .9.604644(edit, it's 5.9.604644)
3: install Screen2Auto_v3.4.5 (Updated to v3.4.6)

Enable developer mode in AA, check unknown sources, and patch Screen2Auto with the patcher.

Edit: Touchscreen IS working after Selecting "automatic shutdown of SELinux" under other settings. I have only tested with a few apps but Sound works on but IPTV extreme app.( Have Video but no sound.)

Pretty cool so far, but Not Quite the experience as using My jailbroke iphoneSE with Carplayeneble, where everything works flawless and can be controlled from the Car radio. Will be following this thread regularly. Thanks!

Well I'm def gonna give your suggestions here a try since it seems for the most part we have the same setup going minus phones and pioneer model but that shouldn't matter hopefully lol thanks for this I'll let ya know if I got it going

I wonder if "Tap Jacking Protection" in magisk settings is blocking s2a touch input because of the hovering button being detected as an overlay. Will try it soon and report back!

I turned off the setting and rebooted. nothing changed

 

[LLStarks]

Does this app work with cars that have knobs or touchpads instead of touchscreens? Or would be it be mirror-only with no input possible?

I solved it by downgrading Magisk.

Trying this out again and it's working well so far. Moto Z3 Play fresh after factory reset, rooted with Magisk 22.0.

Installed the latest Android Auto(6.1.610544) and enabled developer mode, checked unknown sources box.
Installed Screen2Auto 3.4.6 and went to Other setting and Clicked the AA Unlock. Reboot phone.(I had issues with this option not being available/not doing anything on my Moto G stylus phone.)
Select apps you want too show up in Screen2 auto settings.
Then installed AA Phenotype patcher, selected screen2auto in apps, and Patched, reboot.


Youtube Vanced(no ads) working, IPTV apps working. Netflix and Direct Tv Apps work, but are in Portrait until a video is actually played(same on the phone, so no way around that.)

Screen doesn't seem to fill my Pioneer NEX all the way regardless of whether I select fit or fill in Screen2Auto settings.

Not sure if I'll mess with removing the AA Bar at the bottom( although it takes up a lot of room.) Don't want to mess with theme settings, maybe an easier fix will be available.

I use Orientation Control to force the rotation. You can define app specific states. Or Tasker may be able to set it only when using aa if you have the patience to set it up
