It sounds like a memory or CPU problem. This is a known issue for the iPhone 4 and I haven't found a fix for it. The iPhone 4S seems to have better hardware to support AppEx mirroring.

Mike, any quick thoughts on this? i even tried resorting IOS but issue came back once i installed Beta 17, i restored from my icloud backup but i have no idea how Beta 17 remembers its old settings?

The settings are stored on the partition that gets backed up to iTunes/iCloud. Uninstall the beta and then use iFile to delete this file:

/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/com.decaro.appradioextensions.plist

Ive seen info about a tethered jailbreak for 6.1.3

The tethered jailbreak i have seen said 4S but i couldnt get it to take, say this because in the description i saw it said 4S and the 5, but after trying to  use the program to JB it, it did not work, the process told me to get it into DFU mode, but when i pressed the button to start the JB, it says the phone needed to be back in its normal state, but i couldnt get it to go back out of DFU mode, do  you know how i get it out of DFU mode to JB it? sorry if thats a stupid question, i am new to JB.

 

Sorry if this is a Hi-jack or in the wrong section

thanks for this answer even if i hoped for some better :)

thanks for that.

 

another reason for me to use my ipod only for music and stick to arliberator for the rest. i got two android phones with mhl and for sure i won´t buy an iphone 4s just to put it in my car as a media player :)

 

edit: sorry, my post sounds like arliberator is better than appex. that was not what i wanted to say, both of them have different strengths. i have never been a fan of apple and i bought the ipod only for appradio and now i am a little bit *'§%&"

Is there any way to stop the appradio app from automatically opening when you turn on the appradio 2? It gets annoying when you turn the car on and u click the ipod and then all of a sudden appradio takes over and opens.. Idk if this happens to anyone else

Posted Aug 13, 2013 · 02:18 UTC#1810

I have an appradio 2 along with the ipod 3rd generation. Ipod is jailbroken and I have installed appradio extension 2.0.1-1 since I am on the older ios.  I was wondering do I still need to have to bypass the parking brakes to have this work? Currently I the parking brake wire from the head unit is not hooked up to anything.

Do you have the alert bypass set to Accept?

You don't need the parking brake bypass to mirror apps with the latest beta.

You have to set bypass launch alert to ignore to stop the iPhone app opening, even then the head unit still tries to launch app mode but you can kill that screen by pressing the headunits home button, one of many poor pioneer software issues I'm afraid

Hey Mike,

 

First off this is a brilliant project that i was delighted to find whilst looking for a new head unit for my Zafira B 07 Plate. I will be donating to this project today so watch out for that ;)

 

I have a few questions please:

 

1) I have not updated the firmware or anything yet on the head unit (avh-8500BT), when i connect my iPhone 5 to the connection kit (Lightning to HDMI) and i select apps on the head unit, it gives me a warning i need to accept, but then all it does is mirror the iPhone 5 display. Im not prompted to do anything on the devoce at all and also it does not loaunch anything on the device. I am unable to control anything by touching the head unit screen all im able to do is view what is on the iPhone screen. I have tried with app extensions installed and also u have tried removing that also just to see if the stock app radio would work but it behaves in the same way.

 

2) I noticed that on the opening post you stated that the latest version supported was app radio 2.3.0 i couldnt find that version on the app store so had to go with app radio 2.4.0 is this the issue here? If so would you or somebody be able to post a link to this so im able to install that version. I own http://AppAddict.org and ill make sure if someone sends me the .ipa file i will crack it and place it on ApAddict so that it is available to all people at all times, as if things will only work with certain versions it will be good to have a store of different version and at AppAddict we archive all old versions.

 

3) Like i said i am the owner of AppAddict and we have a quite busy forum i was wanting to know if i was able to do a write up of your work and have it point to this forum here as i know lots of our users will LOVE this!!

 

Also i dont mean to be rude at all i have a long car journey to make on Thursday with the three kids and id so love it if i were able to get this up and running before then. SO if you Mike or anyone else for that matter is able to help me out it would be massively appreciated.

 

Again congrats on the great project and ill be donating nicely towards your already done work and for the continuation of such a cool usefull project.

1. Someone else may have to answer this. I only have an AppRadio 1 with an iPhone 4S, but many people have it working with newer models of both.

 

2. You can use the latest AppRadio app in the app store. Version 2.3.0 changed significantly so I had to make code changes after that update. The first post should really read 2.3.0 and up. I'll fix that.

 

3. Feel free to share this. I'm actually looking for other developers to help with the project, so the more publicity the better.

Hi Mike- 

Quick question.  I'm not using an AR head unit.  I'm using an AVIC-X950BH and when using AppEx w/AR v.2.3.0, I can't get Safari to force into landscape mode.  All other apps will force landscape but Safari.  I could see it not working for any apps due to the fact that I am using the AVIC series vs. the SPH series but they all work except that one app.  You may or may not know but thought I'd throw it out there.

 

Also, I'm still struggliing with the offset.  The left side and bottom portion is off.  I have to type further to the left and higher up for those regions to register.  If I adjust X and Y in AppEx, it throws the whole thing off.  What's strange is that the top portion and right side of the screen are dead on so I have to remember to adjust my typing when inputting with the keyboard on the left and bottom.  I think this issue only exists on the AVIC series but I'm not 100% sure.

 

Thanks again.

Im just going to get an iPhone 4S for the car may be easier i think.

 

Im just going to try play a DVD see if maybe the hand brake wire is the cause, as i did not use a bypasser i just wired it to the earth and as i have been reading more posts it seems that that is not sufficient for these head units and that you need to use a bypasser so you can replicate the on of on of the handbrake.

 

Ill make the post on AppAddict and also mention that you are looking for other developer input also.

 

Cheers man

I can't get Safari to force into landscape mode.

This is a known issue and is present on all units.

Posted Aug 14, 2013 · 00:30 UTC#1818

You don't need the parking brake bypass to mirror apps with the latest beta.

 

 

 

Maybe I am doing something wrong here but when I plug in my ipod, I get a blank black screen after hitting the apps button. Any ideas?

Ok thanks.  I never know anymore since most things work on the SPH series vs. the AVIC series.

Hello,

i have a jailbroken iPhone 4S and a pioneer avh 2500bt.

 

when i start the appradio app on the ip4s it dont mirroring the screen from the ip4s.

The appradio start and i see on the iphones screen only a pic from appradio app.

 

i download all dependencies,but perfercesloader wasnt in cydia.

Anyone can help me ?

I don't have my AppRadio yet, but thought I'd at least try to cover the basics.   Page 1 here says that there is an older AppsRadio extension in the default BigBoss repository list that shows up in Cydia.   We're supposed to manually add Cydia Repository:

http://mikedecaro.com/repo/  (Beta 17 will show as 2.0.1-450 in Cydia)  A reboot is now required after installing!

 

Anything I've ever installed from  Cydia that requires other dependencies automatically installs them at the time I install the main app.   I've never heard of something being installed that requires a dependency and it not being added for you.  (so that's strange)   Again I don't even have the AppRadio yet but I thought I'd make sure you covered the basics.

I'm finally ready to upgrade my clunky Kenwood DNX stereo that stopped accepting video input since Lightening replaced 30 pin.   I've been limping by on audio only via iPhone 5 with a useless Kenwood screen. (app mode on kenwood means it just gives complete control to your iPhone and the screen is back, no fun)

 

I thought the Clarion NX603 was going to be first out the gate with HDMI mirroring.

http://www.clarion.com/us/en/products/2013/multimedia/navigation/NX603/us-en-product-pf_1259655181646.html

The CES announcement was over 8 months ago! (and they've yet to release it)

 

I wrote-off Pioneer the last few years since their built in Navigation was total garbage.  I'm glad I searched around recently for HDMI car stereos.   AppRadio makes total sense though cutting out built in everything to focus on your phone running the show.

 

It makes sense to focus all innovation towards extending your Smartphone as the brains of everything you want to do.  I'm looking forward to what iOS7 brings for Cars but that won't mature until 2014 so I'm all in for AppRadio now.

 

I just happen to have a jailbroken iPhone 5 so this AppRadio Extension project is the sole reason I'm excited to buy the AppRadio 3.   

 

So yeah thanks for working on the Extension app here pretty amazing stuff.  I'm looking forward to giving it a try.
