Can you add ......

Any app that contains support for external displays but is not approved by Pioneer will not work properly. I have to manually add them to a whitelist. If you post the bundle identifier for the app, I can add it.

Turns out it's a bit more complicated than just adding them to the white list. I'll have to work on this for beta 3.

The application TOMTOM works very very well!

Hey Mike, let me start off by saying, great job with this!!!

I tried out the beta 2 for a little bit tonight and I noticed that the display out works pretty good but I have noticed one issue.

I have my phone mounted in landscape with the dock connector on the left side. This causes issues with the apps touch control functions on the app radio. I did figure out that they all worked fine if I flip the phone over to have the doc connector on the right side.

I was wondering if you can make a toggle in the appradio extensions setting to designate which way the landscape mode is in, ie doc connector right or doc connector left and the touch controls in the extension flip to work in either mounting direction?

I'm looking forward to trying out beta 3 in the future.

Okay, I'm missing something. I downloaded the beta, but don't know how to install it. It doesn't show up in Cydia. Please give me instructions,

Thanks, Ron

Nevermind I went back through this thread and found it under Page 6.

SSH connects you with iFunbox for example

Look the screenshot

Go to Systeme de fichier

Go to /private/var/root/Media

Go to Cydia

Go to AutoInstall or create it

Copy the file. DEB in the directory AutoInstall and reboot

Sorry for my bad english

THIS is WAY easier......Email to yourself, click on the file....use iFile (free) to Install......Reboot......DONE!!!!! Check Cydia after re-boot an it will show the correct Beta

Keep it in your Inbox.....if you want to roll-back to the un-beta.....just uninstall in cydia then re-install in cydia

now I can go switch between beta and non-beta without a computer!!!!

I installed it using ispirit but the second method sounds much easier as I had to go back and forth with the ispirit, but ispirit is a great program.

Mike,

I played around with this and it's great. I noticed it doing a reinstall of the AppRadio App alot, kept bringing up welcome to my iPhone. Is there a preferred setup? I'm assuming it's the default but just checking. Hitting the black bar on the right takes it back to the app screen most of the time. When I used approved the apps, the back and forth is smoother, so I concluded the unsupported causes the appradio to reboot when hitting the home screen. Anyway fantastic progress, your work is making this HU more of what it should have been from the factory. Anyway to get some of the unsupported apps to show up in landscape, such as phone?

Thanks again, Ron

Hi Mike,

I really like the appradio extensions. Its just awesome to control navigon directly from the radio. Im using it on the avh 8400bt. Ok as its still beta state sometimes the screen stays black after switching to the iPod source and back but you already mentioned this and after restarting the appradio app its working again most of the time.

I think it would be really cool to have the following features implemented:

- Resize the Screen to fit to the radio display (on my radio navigon doesnt use the full height in landscape mode)

- option to turn off the iPhone screen (Looks somehow stupid when both devices show the same stuff and anyway you dont need the iPhone screen since you can control everything from the radio

Has Anybody tested this out on Appradio 2 ?

I'm having issues controlling the iPhone. nothing comes up accept the official appradio App and then nothing happens....

Anyway to get some of the unsupported apps to show up in landscape, such as phone?

SBRotator (in Cydia) adds landscape support to some of the built in apps. I use this tweak so I plan on making sure it plays nicely with the AppRadio.

- Resize the Screen to fit to the radio display (on my radio navigon doesnt use the full height in landscape mode)

- option to turn off the iPhone screen (Looks somehow stupid when both devices show the same stuff and anyway you dont need the iPhone screen since you can control everything from the radio

The full height issue is a bug (see the first post). Still trying to resolve it.

I've tried a few things to make the phone display turn off but haven't been successful yet. It's on my list but low priority.

It's ok now ....It's kind of working .....

One issue .......I can't get the official Apple music App to work .....the icon just loads on the screen ....

Is there a issue with using the Apple official Apps ?

I found out something interesting yesterday.........I know that I had mentioned earlier about Pandora not "backgrounding" when running non-pioneer apps.......BUT, I noticed that the system app "messages" will work with pandora in the background!!!!!! Safari didn't though........Didn't know if the "messages" app had some kind of different permissions???

Just thought I would throw that out there and see if it helps

Okay just tested this with the new App Radio (1) Firmware 2.56 (Euro) and works without issue

Has this issue been resolved in the latest beta ?

Only works with AppStore apps (meaning no Maps, Photos, Calendar, Phone, etc.) ???

The restriction was removed but I haven't tested every single app yet.

Maps and Phone don't work.......I've only tried those 2

BUT, as I stated earlier "messages" work....EVEN WITH PANDORA running!!!!!!!!!!

Using Beta 2 with 2.50 FW....

This is probably the same for everyone, but this is my observation:

- Touch works the first time something is loaded, but if you go back to the Appradio app then load a different app, all you get is a black screen. You have to then go back to the iphone, close Appradio, then relaunch it.

Great job so far, Mike. Once this is polished up, I think I speak for everyone when we thank you in advance for finally making our Appradio "useful." Btw, while this has nothing to do with AppEx, is CarMediaPlayer absolutely useless for everyone else? It actually works about once every 20 times its loaded...Very aggravating.

Hey Mike

Thanks so much for "digging in" and fixing that which Pioneer is unable or not willing to do for us!

I've installed Beta 2, and everything that was working with your prior release is still working.

I'm having an issue with the new "controlling non-supported apps" feature. When I add the app to the App Radio screen and launch it, I'm still just getting a black screen after I click past the parking break screen. Any idea what I might be doing wrong?

Apps I've tried:

iHeartRadio

ooTunes

Its possible these are TV Out enabled apps already, so that might be my issue, but I'm not certain.

Current setup:

iPhone 4

App Radio 1: FW 2.45

App Radio App: 1.71

App Radio Ext: 1.9.9-2

Thanks so much for your effort!

PS: I'm also wondering how you started developing this iPhone Extension? I'd love to start learning, I have a basic understanding of the iPhone development environment and Objective C. Would you consider open sourcing this extension? I'd love to dabble

Thanks!

I just made a small contribution to the great Mike! Thank you from Rome...

Hello,

I tried now for the first time AppEx and get it installed. But I can't find the 'More Apps' button. Could anybody please describe or show me (by photo or video) where I can find this one.

Thx!
