Everything workings fine without root? You don't have to press anything in screen every time to have screen2auto boot? Anyway it's good that it's working for you 8 months without root. Just from curiosity, which phone have you got, what android version, original or custom. But even if it's working fine for you, its not the standard..
I had months, i hadn't use screen2auto so i asked some things, to see if something changed. I hadn't any problem to make it work. Actually the problem was with the specific car (opel corsa 2016. Android auto doesn't work at all in this car without upgrading the headunit of the car. I probably im 1% which have make it work without upgrading in this car).

Se non qualcos'altro, asase cambia il nome del pacchetto per S2A. È necessario poiché Google aggiorna costantemente Android Auto con l'elenco (nero) delle app che non devono essere autorizzate a funzionare

I understood that "AAease" modifies Screen2auto to be launched on Android Auto, and I confirm that I had tried to install it with "AAAD" and on Android Auto the icon was not visible while with AAease it worked.
With root permissions of course.

Three or four months ago I did install S2A to my phone and posted with all details (aaease was just one important step of three or four steps) - and it worked

However, I reinstalled the phone and didn't bother to install S2A once again (frankly, I practically used it solely just for testing the installation and later from time to time did it still work)

However, I do use Fermata and CarTube with Android Auto (but they don't require S2A)- that's enough for me to be able to use YT with AA

I don't remember now. What's supposed to happen?

S2A app has to open. It will be a new screen on the infotainment (head unit in the car), showing icons of all apps you had previously configured to use through S2A. Eg, icon of your browser, your email app, whatever

Then, inside that screen of S2A, you can open that browser, email, etc

That way you can practically use any app you have on your phone (even Google Play app, Settings, whatever) through S2A, on the infotainment screen

    Uninstalled s2a and update aa
    Rebooted
    Installed s2a (renamed the string with mtmanager) and set app permissions then reboot
    Update aa from playstore
    Set aa xl developers settings and sources unknown
    S2A doesnt appear in AA
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse
    So I still have s2a working on non root samsung 23 ultra Android 13. I noticed Fermata Auto was missing from AA and decided to reinstall from AAAD app,

    There is a new version of Fermato auto (1.99 version) and it also has 2 mirroring apps and it works quite well on Android 13. I think its easier to use than s2a and the phone screen dims unlike in s2a.

    Update: works like a charm, even better than s2a. Thanx again

    1. Сompletely new application combining AAMirror & AAStream features.

    3. Ability to choose the automatic launch of any application at A2M startup.
    4. Floating button to control the application from the HU screen.
    5. Ability to reset if incorrect output and resolution distortion.
    6. Many other chips...

    Installation and setup:
    1. Download and Install Screen2Auto
    6760829d5c83bfb472ea0a96d8b0efde.png
    2. Enable developper settings in Android Auto and enable Unkown sources in developper settings.
    1. Launch on the Android Auto mobile device
    2. Open the menu, tap the tab "About Android Auto"
    3. In the menu that opens, tap on the gear (settings). Then we crawl to the very bottom of the menu that opens: "Version 4.5. *** - release".
    4. 10 times tap on the display of the version of Android Auto, a window will appear where we must agree with what we are doing. Click "Yes."
    5. Go to the menu (tap "three points") and select the tab "For Developers" that appears in the menu
    6. In the last line, put a checkmark "Unknown sources" or use other settings of the developer's menu.
    3. Use the AA AIO TWEAKER from @shmykelsa for activation third-party applications.
    4. Launch the application and perform the initial setup of permission recovery. Click on the button and save them.

    5. Make the necessary settings as desired.
    Warning:
    If, after turning off the smartphone or exiting AA (turned off the car, closed the emulator, removed the USB), the resolution of the smartphone did not return to its original state (the recovery settings, failure, smartphone features, etc. were set incorrectly, etc.), you need go to Settings → Reset settings and select the WM SIZE RESET option. Resolution will be restored to factory.

    S2A appears to be the most restricted app.

    To my knowledge following levels of restrictions/by-passes exist:
    1. Developer mode + unknown sources need to be enabled in the AA app,
    you can tap the Version number in the AA app a lot, to unlock the developer settings.
    2. Apps need to be "installed as Google Play",
    you can use KingInstaller to do so: https://github.com/fcaronte/KingInstaller
    3. Apps need to be "whitelisted in phenotype.db",
    you can use AA-AIO-Tweaker for this: https://github.com/shmykelsa/AA-Tweaker
    4. Apps need Xposed module to spoof an additional "installed as Google Play" check,
    you can use Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked for this: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked
    5. Apps (for now only Screen2Auto to my knowledge) need their internal package name changed to something different,
    you can use MT Manager for this: https://mt2.cn/download/

    Open MT Manager => Open S2A.apk file => View => AndroidManifest.xml => String pool => Triple dot icon => Filter =>
    Type the package name of the app (likely "ru.cvitnepei.neatruwtosceo" or "ru.inceptive.screentwoauto") => Ok
    => Select the found package name (likely "ru.cvitnepei.neatruwtosceo" or "ru.inceptive.screentwoauto")
    => Alter it to something unique, don't tell your unique package name online => Ok => Back arrow => Save and exit
    => Save AndroidManifest.xml modification + Auto sign => Ok

    Open your package manager => Install modified / renamed S2A.apk

    The only way (similar method from the Fermata player thread) I found to overcome the problem for now is:
    - Use Android Auto version 7.0.614104 (tried v7.1.614554, it does not work in any way).
    - Rename the Screen2Auto app v3.6.2 (change the ru.inceptive.screentwoauto name) with Lucky Patcher or any other rename apk app.
    - Uninstall the original Screen2Auto and install the renamed one.
    - Enable Unknown Sources on AA and patch/add the newly renamed app to AA with AA IO Tweaker as you normally would.

    I tried turning off/on the car, disconnected and rebooted the phone, Screen2Auto hasn't disappeared yet.
