Hello,
Searching for "Mirrorlink" here, I have noticed that mirrorlink is only discussed to try to connect "old" devices to their car but with MirrorLink 1.0.
Now that MirrorLink 1.1, integrated to Lollipop, seems to be a much better "standard" and now that car manufacturers have understood that their embedded screen should follow the same "standard", a new general topic dedicated to MirrorLink 1.1 may be created in the forum to exchange our knowledges and experiences ?
For instance, mine:
I tested with success a Samsung Galaxy S5 with Lollipop connected (USB) to the embedded screen of my Peugeot 108 car, as their are both compatible with MirrorLink 1.1. List of the few compatible apps. Please see Mirrorlink website to see the short list of available apps certified by the Car Connectivity Consortium
This small car is the child of an agreement between PSA and Toyota. Thus, I can imagine that it also works in new Citroen C1 and Toyota Aygo.
Regards,

I am too new (not enough posts) to be able to directly comment on the Base thread in Android Development but would like to comment on a question in the thread regarding Bluetooth connection. I am on v15c and have had no problems with the Bluetooth on either my Lincoln (SYNC) or my Genesis. The Rom paired correctly and connects automatically.
For the information of other users I have tested the TV out and it functions properly and I can connect to my HDTV's with the MHL adaptor and view Netflix and other videos.
Keep up the good work.
Does Android 4.1 allow a device to serve as a Hands-Free Profile (HFP) device? Similar to the way many newer cars come with integrated Bluetooth/HFP, I would like to use my tablet (Nexus 7) as a front-end for my phone. When an incoming call comes in, the phone should relay the call over Bluetooth to the tablet; it should also allow the tablet to make outgoing calls via Bluetooth over the phone's network.
Please note that I am not interested in solutions such as GrooveIP, Talkatone, and SIPDroid. I am specifically looking for Bluetooth HFP.
I've done quite a bit of searching but have not seen an app that does this. I wouldn't mind looking into developing such a product - but I first wanted to know if the HSP 1.6 host API was available in Android 4.1. I've seen resources stating it was available in ICS 4.0, but I believe this is to allow Android devices to connect to third-party HSP devices - I'm looking to do the opposite (i.e. have the Android device serve as the HSP host).
i am also curious about this.

Me too
For those of us that plans to install a Android tablet in the car for music etc. this would be tha last part to make it a complete in-car device.
I am another curious one about this. The only devices I know of for sure that can do this are the 3.6 and 4.2 samsung galaxy players. Unfortunately, I have the 4.0 galaxy player, that doesn't support it. The galaxy players run gb, not jb, btw.

Did anybody found a solution, and trying to add this feature to my android app.

From what I can gather:
* Bluetooth defines HFP to have two roles: the Audio Gateway (AG) role and the Hands-Free (HF) role.
* Android doesn't natively support the HF role.
I too am interested in exactly what you are describing -- would like to use a tablet as the infotainment hub of a vehicle. I would happy to be a part of or organize a bounty to support development of such a capability in CM10.

Someone custom-implemented the needed Bluetooth role
Looks like some Android device has custom implementations of both A2DP sink role and hands free unit role. I can't post links yet. Google this:

any leads if this is available on android yet? (Hands free profile)
There's some development about this but I'm not sure it's possible yet.
have a look at the links here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions...a-receiver-for-a2dp-profile/28892944#28892944
I want, too
to use android device as hands free
Hey there,
some Car Manufactures are integrating smartphones in their car infotainment systems with mirrorlink.
Im working at a Skoda Dealer in Germany and Skoda (also Volkswagen) are supporting mirrorlink.
But there are only a few devices at the moment supporting mirrorlink. (HTC ONE M8 for ex.)
So my questions:
Needs Mirrorlink special hardware or is this only software?
Is there a possibility to add Mirrorlink support to a smartphone by a special app?
Or mayby by a custom ROM?
I want to buy a Moto G 2014 but Motorola is not supporting Mirrorlink for now, so im searching for a possibility to add Mirrorlink.
DriveLink seems to be similar but im not able to download it to my non Samsung Devices.

Any help?
Mirrorlink / DriveLink on NON Samsung Devices?
Hi,
Its proving hard to find a definitive answer anywhere on this, but can anyone confirm if the Z2 is definitely compatible with the Jawbone Up24 for example?
The Up24 requires Bluetooth Smart / LE (low Energy) which, as I understand it, is one of the Bluetooth 4.0 profiles.
Their website does say it is compatible with the Z1, but no mention of the Z2 or Z3. I would assume it is I suppose, but I find it strange nobody seems to actually say so, anywhere that I can find.
Any of the phone specs I've read say "v4.0, A2DP, apt-X" or "Object Push Profile (OPP)"
Also, in a Sony whitepaper, I see the following:
Bluetooth® profiles supported:
Advanced Audio Distribution Profile v1.2
Audio/Video Remote Control Profile v1.3
Device Identification Profile v1.3
Generic Attribute Profile Client/Server over LE
Handsfree Profile v1.6 (Wide band speech)
Headset Profile v1.2
Health Device Profile v1.1
HID over GATT Profile v1.0
Human Interface Device Profile, Host role v1.1
Messaging Access Profile v1.0
Object Push Profile v1.1
Personal Area Networking Profile v1.0
Phonebook Access Profile v1.1
Serial Port Profile v1.1
Core version and supported core features:
Version 4.0
Bluetooth Low Energy

So, anyone got them working together?
Thanks.
Nobody?
ok, well, for anyone who is interested, I just noticed Garmin are listing the Z2 as compatible with their Bluetooth Smart (BTLE) products.
That's enough for me.

Hi there,
AFAIK Mirrorlink is a software only feature to phones, hence I started wondering if there is a method (flashable/magisk/xposed) to implement Mirrorlink to devices (or custom roms) that didn't get shipped with this feature.
For example; I have an OP6, and my car has a feature to connect to mirrorlink devices. I'd like to use this feature but my device didn't get shipped with Mirrorlink.
