GPS 12.6///AA 3.2///CARSTREAM 2.0=WORKS!
hi guys this is my first entry in github so im sorry if i made mistake. I just achieved to run carstream on aa with rooted phone + gps v12.6 + aa v3.2 + carstream v2.0... I followed the instructions Kiran Kumar wrote. I realized sth when you reboot your phone gps updates 12.8 and it blocks carstream i think this is the issue we are challenging. So, when i rebooted my phone i downgraded gps 12.8 to 12.6 again but this time i DID NOT reboot my phone. I run carstream and clicked the magic "unlock[root]" button and again i DID NOT reboot my phone i just connected it to my car and it worked! Enjoy!
As long as Google Play Store (GPS) has internet connection, it will update to 12.8 even if we don't reboot the phone. What you could do is use an application like AF++, and block internet connectivity for GPS.
This will ensure that GPS doesn't get upgraded, but it also prevents you from using GPS to install/upgrade any app.
You can always unblock GPS (enable internet), install/update whatever you want, and then downgrade GPS once again. And block it once again in AF++. It does work.
Use GPS 12.6. Download Disable Service apk from net (Not available in playstore){similar app available in playstore >Service Disabler from Kunkun soft]. Open it and go to System (grant root permissions) and then navigate to Google play Services. (A lot of Services will be displayed with a tick mark on left), Untick the following services 1.PeriodicUpdaterService 2.SystemUpdateGcmTaskService 3.SystemUpdateService 4.UpdateSchdelerService. Done!!! Your GPS will not update own its own. Enjoy CarStream 2.0
@podimonanil Did you use complete procedure (of kirankumar) or you just downgrade gps, set set parameters at "Disable service apk*, install AA 3.2, than CarStream 2.0 and everything works?
Gpsyi düşerdim çalışmadı yine car stream 2.0 ve AA 3.2 de cihaz köklü değil
@ MistetNo 1 Basic requirements (My steps)
- Install Link2SD from Play store.
- Install Disable Services apk.
- Download GPS 12.6 from apk mirror.
- Download CarStream 2.0
- Turnoff Data mobile and wifi
- Uninstall updates of GPS to factory version.
- Install GPS 12.6 that you've downloaded.
- Open Link2sd app and select updated apps, Select GPS, long press on it and select "integrate update into system" option, This will set GpS 12.6 as the default version on your phone.
- Reboot your phone.
- After rebooting open playstore and turn off auto updating of apps.
- Open Disable services app and select system then select GPS and disable A. PeriodicUpdaterService. B. SystemUpdateGCMtaskService. C. SystemUpdateService D. UpdateSchedulerService.
- Now you can turn on Data. Check whether GPS is auto updating, if it updates uninstall updates with Link2sd app. And use Disable service app a second time.(Normally gps won't update).
- Install AA (latest from Play store v 3.5).
- Open and grant all permissions, enable Developer options, enable Unknown sources, 720p output and 1080p output. Close AA.
- Install CarStream 2.0, open and grant permissions. Close carstream.
- Connect to car, start AA and accept all permissions.
- Disconnect from car.
- Open Carstream select Unlock it will ask for root permission, grant root. It will show successfully unlocked message . If it shows unsuccessful , press Unlock again.
- It will ask you to Reboot your phone.
- Reboot your phone and you are ready to use CarStream 2.0 with AA.
One step missed. in 14th step After opening AA , After enabling Developer settings, Set Application mode to "Developer".
Also At last when CarStream works say thanks to Kiran kumar.
When using CS at night with head lights on , it goes dark and you cant see text related to the video. ANyone else experiencing this issue? Any suggestions?
You may try this: open AA and go to developer options, choose the "day/night" option and set it to "day" option. This may solve your problem i suppose.
@podimonanil
Thanks for the complete procedure. I will try it today and I will send you a feedback
Bad luck. I finished all procedure step by step and cant play Youtube on CarStream. I even cant see CS on the list of the applications (when I press last button on the bottom right at car). I found CS in the list of the media sources (when press headphone car button) but there is no picture or sound of YT :-(
Done! :) :) The problem was at step 12. I didnt check if GPS updated again itself. (yes it was :-o, I dont know why but yes, it was). With app Link2sd I disabled service again, second time. And ewerything is ok now. It works. Thanks a lot!
Keep checking Disable Service app once in 2-3 days and check whether the four disabled service are enabled again or not and disable again. For an assurance I use both apps "Disable Service " and "Service Disabler". You can integrate any update to system with link2sd but You need to all the steps once again if you integrate Google Play store to system. All settings will be restored to default when Google Play store is integrated. You should once again go to play store settings and disable auto update of apps and then disable services of play service with disable service app or service Disabler app.

I'm in step 6 unistalled GPS starts to appear a notification that says: "Update Google Play Services... Google Play Services wont run unless you Update". I ignore it and install GPS 12.6.88 and did the next steps but when I'm in step 13 (notifications that says that I need UPDATE still appears) and install and open AA 3.5 but when I try to open says: "Something Went Wrong... Google Play Services doesnt seem to be working right now." I've already check if GPS is updated but nope... I have installed 12.6.88 GPS... please help! :(
@Dooouu I thing that you have problem at steps 10, 11 i 12. Please, try again all procedure and pay attention on theese three steps. I hope that than wil be all ok :)
@MisterNo1 did exactly.... After rebooting I turn off updates, then open disable services, the only thing that notice that didn't show up in the list is this one 'PeriodicUpdaterService'... My data is on and GPS won't update anymore cuz stills in 12.6.88 but AA not working, same massage appears "Something Went Wrong... Google Play Services doesnt seem to be working right now"
oops, you dont have 'PeriodicUpdaterService'?? That is the problem. I have this line between lines: "PeriodicRebuildIndexService" and "PersistentApiService" Maybe you have this option but with the different name?
All of these things work only a rooted phone, right? I haven't rooted my phone (LG G7+ Thinq) yet coz said I read somewhere that it would void the manufacturer warranty. So I got an error on step 8 saying Link2sd doesn't have root access or something.
@MisterNo1
I don't have it between the files you said to me before :( What other name could be for that file?
There are a lot variants of Google Play Services are available. You should install the correct GPS 12.6 specific to your device.
Do not buy lenovo p2 because it wants you to wait 2 weeks to give you permission to unlock oem
Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) is my choise. But maybe someone know the better device
I use Xiaomi, I able to RUN CarStream with my redmi Note 4, and also with my wife's Redmi 4. both rooted with Magisk. The problem is that You have to wait 48Hrs to unlock the bootloader after requesting for permissions. Another problem i encountered was that An Update for Android Auto (3.6.583534) was released two days back. After updating AA to the above update , My phone failed to open AA and no messages was shown. So I uninstalled it and installed AA 3.5. And now everything works Fine including CarStream, Jet Audio Plus, Voice input like OK Google, Able to read and send Whatsapp messages . And also there was an update for Google app a week back, You can update that too. But do not integrate it into system, if you do OK Google command will not work.( Atleast forRedmi Note 4).
@podimonanil I've install the right version for my Moto G5 (armeabi-v7a, Android 4.0+, nodpi)... I don't think that's a variant problem.
EXIT: Yes it was a variant problem... I needed for Android +6.0 and everything in GPS seems working fine. Followed all your steps again and WORKS! THANK YOU!!!
