Appradio connection works.
Bluetooth connection works.
Mirrorlink connection does not work.
When i connect my note 4 via usb to the Pioneer AVH-x7800bt I get "Please reset the smart phone settings".
When i turn on Settings- NFC Sharing - Mirrorlink on my Note 4 I get "Incompatible USB".
Mirrorlink forces USB connection to charge and the Pioneer wants USB connection to be MTP.
Anyone any ideas?
Gave up on mirrorlink. Now fighting with MHL and App Radio Unchained Reloaded.
To day came not further than: waiting on connection
On the bright site Note 4 screen does turn up on the Pioneer!
The hole idea is to get TomTom Go on the Pioneer.
Discovered that TomTom Go and button savior (non root) do not like each other.
App radio unchained is not working.

Not able to miracast my non-rooted galaxy note 4 Android 5.1.1 to samsung tv using miracast dongle with usb power. Miracast shows up on tv and phone. I select the correct miracast option on the tv, tap connect, it hangs awhile then says unable to connect. Tried connecting a few times but still no luck. I notice miracast power requirement of 5 amp but my usb charger was only 1.5 amp so I'll look around for a 5 amp one, hopefully it might connect. Android 6+ apparently dont support miracast. Any other suggestions out there why its having trouble to connect, other than maybe the 5 Amp power?
Miracast not connecting..

Whoops got my volts and amps the wrong way round, should read 5 volts, 1 amp.
I have an InDashNet UN8000 that I'm having a weird issue with.
Due to the bluetooth on this unit being run through the MCU (not visible to the settings) I bought a USB OBDII adapter to use with Torque Pro.
The adapter does work... but torque (and presumably android?) doesn't see the adapter on cold startup. I have to quit torque, then replug the adapter for it to show up.
Is this a known issue? And if so, is there a work around? I'd prefer to avoid a wifi unit as I use wifi for phone tethering (internet on the road).
I'm not rooted... but it looks like there is an official (OEM) way to do so listed on their site. I just haven't gotten to it (no need).
Did some more looking... Its a torque pro issue. Its even mentioned in the USB notes in the app.
Whoops.
I have a 2012 Peugeot 308, a Pumpkin ND0286B head unit and a Huawei E8372 USB 4G dongle (with Wi-Fi hotspot mode).
I connect the dongle to the radio's USB port for power.
I've been told by Pumpkin that their units do not support mobile broadband via. dongles, which has left me to require enabling Wi-Fi hotspot mode on the dongle.
The dongle's Wi-Fi hotspot itself is ready 10 seconds after the car is turned on.
However, it takes about 90 seconds before the radio accesses the Wi-Fi hotspot.
Any idea how I can speed this up?
Side note: I tried using a 10,000 mAh power bank connected to my car's cigarette lighter (with an Anker PowerDrive Speed+ 2) via. the power bank's USB PD port and having the dongle connected to the power bank. My hope was that when my car turned off, the dongle would continue to be powered until I next got in the car (so that the head unit can connect instantly to the Wi-Fi hotspot when the car is next turned on) but this system did not work because if I was not in the car for two days, the power bank would run out of juice, and the car could not charge the power bank quick enough to keep it topped up.
Hi all.
I have a 2021 mazda bt50. Supports all phones. Wireless carplay, wired android auto.
When i plug this device into the usb port for connecting to the stereo. The device just constantly reboots.
If i plug into a normal usb port (charging only) the unit stays on and does not reboot. But unable to connect to stereo.
Have done all nessasary firmware upgrades.
I have tried new cables everything. Nothing works.
Another supplier that sells thses things rekon they have them working in my type of stereo. But mine just reboots.
Can anyone help?
Thanks heaps
Craig
Hi all,
I'm having an issue with my Joying 8.8" Android Unit. The unit supports Android Auto using the pre-installed "CarLink 2.0" app.
I usually use Wireless Android Auto and it works just fine. However, the head unit does not have any buttons, neither does the steering wheel (Audi TT mk1). To solve this, I have added a USB volume dial (Digispark ATtiny85 paired with a rotary encoder) which I have used on another car running a eonon unit with ZLink where it works very well.
The problem is that, everytime I connect the volume knob to this unit's usb, CarLink seems to think it is a mobile phone, so it interrupts my wireless android auto session and attempts to connect to the usb volume dial. When this happens, the volume dial stops working. This only happens when the CarLink app is running.
Thinking this is an issue with the CarLink App, I tried to install ZLink instead, but It won't run due to "channel error". Do I have to install it as a system app?
Another possible solution: Is there a way to disable USB for CarLink?
Thank You
What did the reseller suggest when contacted for support? What else has been tried?

I contacted Joying with no answer yet (It's the weekend, they might reply next week).
I tried using different USB ports, USB hubs, USB adapters, changing available configuration.
Interestingly enough, using USB A -> USB C -> USB A adapters made the knob continue working even after CarLink tries to connect to it, but still interrupts an ongoing Android Auto session.
I ended up figuring out the problem. Turns out that certain USB class/subclass identifiers are not properly handled by CarLink. Making the microcontroller report a different combination of usb class/subclass did the trick.
Interesting problem. I just installed a 9" Joying radio into my 2019 Honda Civic Hatchback EX, and I forgot I had an iPod plugged into the USB in the middle storage area. I could not get Wireless CarPlay to work reliably (if at all).
I know the radio does not talk to an iPod, so I moved all the music to an SSD drive on USB3 in the glove box. However, if the drive is connected, Wireless CarPlay will not connect unless I disable and re-enable Bluetooth and reconnect manually, but then it disconnects the USB hard drive.
I don't have the option of changing VID/PID values. I am waiting to hear back from Joying, but thought I would add this to the thread as it is somewhat related behavior with CarLink 2.0.
