Any Rom's past 4.1 with Dock Audio Working? - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just Checking back in to see if anyone has found a ROM past 4.1 that has working Dock Audio through the USB cable? I am still stuck on CleanRom 4.1 because I love the convenience of docking in my car without having to plug anything else in. Would love to move up to a more current ROM but haven't found one that works and kind of getting tired of flashing.

I think there is an xposed module that provides a solution for this.

Thanks for the suggestion. Tried it and it only hooks the home key to return to the car app in the dock. Doesn't do anything for passing audio through the usb cable.

Dock Not Properly Recognized?

I have a 32GB WiFi Nexus 7 and the official dock. The tablet is unlocked, rooted, and running Franco kernel with CM10.1.
I can't seem to get the dock to work properly. If I choose Daydream as the default dock app, it will open Daydream when I dock it. Daydream is set to only start when docked, not when charged, so this tells me it's at least partially detecting the dock. If I select Tasker as the default dock app, nothing happens. Regardless of which app is default, audio is never routed through the dock. It's routed through the tablet speaker.
This is driving me nuts, because I bought the tablet and dock to use for a car install. If I can't get the dock working, the whole project will have to be redesigned.

My dock is being detected just fine using the Franken Nexus ROM. However, I have the same audio problem just slightly different. When I dock it into the pogo dock, it says do you want to use audio through the dock? I said yes but sound is not coming otu via the dock over what I know is a working audio cable. If I say no to audio out via the dock and hook the cord up to the headphone jack, I get sound.

Yeah, I've gotten that audio prompt once, and it worked that time, but ever since, it hasn't worked. I may flash back to stock and see if it works again.
Is that version of CM10 based on jellybean 4.2? Dock requires 4.2, not 4.1.

CM 10.1 is based on 4.2.
I think part of it was the ROM. I installed Timur's USBROM, and the audio is now correctly routed. Tasker still does nothing, though. I suppose as long as the audio is routed properly, I can use a power trigger to activate the Tasker profile. It's not ideal, but it will work while I try to figure out how to make it work properly.

Help! No sound through car dock with 4.2.2

I just unlocked/rooted and have been playing around with a few roms to see which I like best. One HUGE issue for me is none of the 4.2.2 roms allow audio to come through the car dock usb cable. I know google ditched the car mode in 4.2.2 and thats ok by me (lots of alternatives) but I just bought a car dock so I wouldn't have to plug multiple cables in when getting into the car.
Anyone know a workaround or any ROMS that have it working? Or, any 4.2.1 ROMS out there worth flashing?
Thanks
Andy
Can anyone confirm any 4.2.2 ROMS that have working audio through the motorola car dock? A few folks claim there are but no one will confirm exactly what ROM.

I take back what I said. These were guys talking about their stock ROMs on the HD. However this was just posted a few days ago: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/restore-car-dock-mode-on-android-4-2/
Thanks for the link but this just enables the car dock trigger to be activated and allows the home key to bind to the car dock home screen when pressed. I have had no problem with a 4.2.2 rom and a market car dock app being triggered when placed in the car dock. Once in the car dock though the audio does not flow through the usb cable (special cable that is split on the charging end with a headphone jack so only one cable goes into the dock)
The audio through usb car dock issue is a little deeper.
I will keep searching but thanks for your efforts.
Tried the new beanstalk but still a no go for sound through the dock. Phone kind of freezes when you try to play something while docked too like most cm 10.1 ROMs.
Silk hoping someone figures this out.

TC: Does this cable setup you have work on the stock ROM? I know mt Razr M car dock came with a normal USB cable and a separate headphone cable. I was under the impression that the Razr M did not allow audio over USB like some of the other models do.
Could be wrong, just want to see what's going on here it it is capable.

Yes, it works on stock ROM as well as CleanRom. The cable that came with my dock (some docks don't come with it) has on one end the micro usb and on the other a regular sized USB and a headphone female split off of it. It is really convenient because then you just dock the phone and both are connected.
Andy
Still searching for a 4.2 ROM with working car dock audio. Tried a few that some said had it working (BeanStalk, CM official nightlies) as well as most others.
Come on, someone has to have fixed this. Can anyone confirm any 4.2 or later roms that have fixed this?
I heard it's been fixed on some other 4.2 phones (s3 I think...)
Basically Google removed the code from the kernel, so a new kernel would be required to fix it.

I haven't seen any or personally tried any. However, I was just looking through the thread about the XPosed Framework modules. There's a module in there that is for allowing car dock on 4.2.2. I don't know if it works, but it never hurts to try. You'll need to install the Xposed Framework installer app here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401 . Then use the modules from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327541 .
If it works, come back and let us know.

Don't think that is going to do it as I have no problems with Car Dock Mode being enabled (the phone recognizing it is in a dock). I will try it if I get the time though.

[Q] Help! Why TN7 can not connect to DualShock3 via bluetooth?

Hi there! I bought a Tegra Note7 which is equipped with Tegra4 Chipsets.Now I want to play games with DualShock3 via SIXAXIS CONTROLLER. The thing is that the app worked very well on my Moto Droid Bionic,but it did not work on my Tegra Note7. When I clicked "start" with every necessary steps done and the screen displayed address of bluetooth and listening for controllers,the "bluetooth" icon did not appear on the top status bar. So the DS3 controller was continuous flashing its 4 red lights,then no other things took place.
I have restored original android 4.3 rom,no changes. Could*you*please*tell me how to work it out? Thank you!
Before I rooted tablet I was able to plug ps3 controller in and was able to map buttons m8 I also used sixaxis enabler and everything fine until rooted then lost all ps3 controller mappings there's very little info on this subject I asked before ,something to do with Bluetooth drivers !

There's really nothing to figure out. The bluetooth stack on the stock ROM just doesn't work with PS3 controllers. Until someone can make a custom ROM with some sort of changes to bluetooth (or until Nvidia releases a ROM with decent bluetooth support), it's just not going to work, and there's nothing we can do to change that.

Thank you for your definite answer! Anyway I now understand what is going on with Tegra Note7, and I have substituted DS3 for wamo pro2 .I hope it can function on my device via bluetooth.

Any Idea if this is actually possible? sitting with a rooted TN7 which I spent a while figuring out how to root (not particularly learned in android atm) and pretty pissed off that my dreams of having a nice practical ghetto shield without cables have been crushed.

It's technically possible, but there has been almost no developer interest in this device. There are no custom ROMs available, and there's only one alternative kernel available, though I never did try a Sixaxis with that kernel... I do know that it broke support for my Moga, so that's not exactly promising. I'll have to give the Sixaxis a try here in a bit.

Assuming you mean shaky156 kernel I can confirm that it doesn't help the bluetooth issue
Just tried the latest version of Sixaxis with the latest OTA. And it seems to finally work on the built in blutooth stack without a usb dongle!

[Q] Ethernet to USB

Hey there,
I am pretty much a noob to all of this so please stay with me
I run a rooted Nexus10 with CM11 (20140603 currently) and need to use an ethernet to USB adapter via OTG. My OTG cable works fine using stick drives etc., but my tablet does not seem to recognize my adapter.
I tried using "ifconfig eth0" after first plugging everything into the OTG cable and then the cable into the Nexus - but to no avail.
I'd be very glad if any1 could help me out with this. I spent the last couple of hours reading through various threads throughout the internet, but was not able to find any solution :/
Best,
dersami
P.S.: Adapter: Königs CMP-NWUSB20

Does anyone have another idea? Im kind of in a bad spot right now, further research didn't quite help
Android only supports specific Ethernet chipsets out of the box (included drivers). So your adapter must be one of the supported ones or have drivers you can install which means you also need to be rooted. Search in the Nexus 10 accessories section to find numerous threads on Ethernet adapters. I have such a thread on my success with a gigabit Ethernet adapter with copious details.

Power supply is from a 2amp (5v) cigarette usb socket, which is wired up behind the dash and not using the original cigarette socket in centre console.
I installed the amp under the passenger seat and run all the cabling under the carpet and out, where needed, behind the facia panel, the dac is also situated there and i ran the usb hub into the glovebox. You literally cannot see any wiring bar in the glovebox as i wanted to maintain a stock look throughout the car as best i could, everything is also revertable back to stock if the need ever arises, the only thing i had to do was screw the amp into the carpet under the seat, but the small holes left would never be seen anyway.
The facia panel was designed and made by a lad named reece who runs http://www.rtafabrication.com/ - top bloke and did an amazing job and the finish and quality of the panel is top notch. I went for a wired dash panel but he can also do wireless panels too!!! - if your thinking of a car install contact him to see if he can design a facia panel for your vehicle.
android apps i use
poweramp,
sat nav is navfree
video is archos Kodi.
As you can see, also for fun have a megadrive emulator with ps4 pad to play games lol. Also can use either torque pro or OBDlink II for my OBD Link LX bluetooth OBD port reader. (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00H9S71LW?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00)
Had an alpine before which was a great piece of kit, but nothing compared to this.

I have never used Elemental X but my understanding of using Timur over any other Kernel was that it uses his own Powerevent Manager app which can do things like wake up when power is applied and deep sleep when power is removed, something i believe Tasker can do. Also not sure if Elexmental X allows simultanious USB hosting and charging + Fast Charging. Supports certain Rear Camera's. Automount of upto 4 FAT32 drives, custom boot animation and shutdown video's, block wakeup alarms. People using other kernel may tell me otherwise but this is what i came up with when researching which to go for.

Just a question to be sure I understood everything.
Without USB Hub, you plug the OTG cable to the tablet and USB DAC to the USB port. Then the USB DAC is connected to the amp using RCA correct?
Currently my setup is not using a DAC (rca to jack directly connected to the amp) and I have interferences because of that so I'm thinking about using a DAC. Is it natively managed by Android?
Thanks,

Yep that is pretty much it, OTG cable then USB DAC straight into USB port, and connect it to your amp / stereo via Red & White RCA jacks, or as i did - - - - - Nexus 7 - OTG cable - USB Hub (4 port) - USB DAC - AMP
I believe Lollipop handles USB audio natively, anything before needs a kernel to implement it - again if anyone knows different then please let me know
Is audio taken from usb? I didn't think any Android can send audio from the usb? Or is that why I need the OTG-cable?
That looks amazing, stock even, imagine having Andoid auto on there.
Any pics of the evo?
