How to Connect Sony DriveLink (MirrorLink) With GS4
Full credit to AuRoN89 for uploading HERE.
Intro
This is a tutorial for how to use Sony's car system(s) to their maximum potential. I cant guarantee this works with every model, however, because I only have the XAV601BT (seen in picture above). Before you do this, you need to make sure the latest firmware is installed. For a guide on that CLICK HERE.(NOTE: This link is for the XAV601BT. If you have a different device, go HERE, enter your model number on the bottom left, and click "Update to the Latest Firmware")
Step 1: Enable "Unknown Sources"
From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > More tab > Security.
Tap Unknown Sources.
A check mark is displayed to indicate it is active.
This is to make your phone allow the instillation of the modded DriveLink.
Step 2: Download the Mod
On your phone, go to the following link (I will post mirrors at the bottom):
www.sestogomme.it/drive_link/DriveLink.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 3: Install
Now, from the Home screen, tap Apps > Downloads > DriveLink.apk.
You should see this:
Scroll to the bottom, and hit Install.
Note: This app does not cost money. The reason it says that is because it has the ability to answer and make phone calls/texts.
Step 4: Connect to USB
Finally, you need to open MirrorLink on your system. Connect your phone (use your charger cable), and the DriveLink application should instantly start.
Note: You will still get an error on the system when you plug your phone in saying the phone isn't compatible, but you can just ignore it.
Conclusion
I really hope this could help! I spent a while troubleshooting this problem, and luckily found a working link by AuRoN89. It managed to save me money on an additional navigation system. If you have any questions or concerns about this, I will try my best to help. I didn't make this modded version, so I can't answer any questions about what was changed. This guide was simply made as a resource for other people who couldn't find any information on this.

Only with 4.3 firmware and modified apk... Since 4.4.2 update it stopped working =/
Let's hope there's a new release soon...
[[]]

Any more news? I have installed custom lollipop (on the internet it saids mirrorlink is supported in lollipop) but can't find it en if I install drive link I got the same error (drive link is stopped working).

Bump. I was unfortunate to be stuck with an ATT s4 that had the 4.4.2 update preinstalled (**** you ATT)... and I bought a used sony XAV-601BT thinking this would work... nope.

I have a note 4 with mirror link, and a XAV-601BT, is there no hope for me? I did the firmware update on the head unit, but nothing. Phone just kind of ***** out saying its in mirror link, and head unit keeps saying reconnect phone.

Looks very cool, no play store support but definitely cool...
Tell me what you think, about to drop the dimes on this.
Play store now supported with firmware update.
Ok I bought this thing and it came today. Freaking awesome so far. No play store, but amazon app store is sufficient.
Using my 55 inch LCD, hdmi cable supplied, WiFi, go launcher.

The use of the device is a little quirky at first. Getting use to the air mouse takes a little bit, but not bad. Skype works good, I did have to get a new hdmi cable since the supplied cable took a **** only hours after first use. I did switch the launcher to use go launcher. The stock launcher is very generic adw. I use this on my 55 LCD, not a good plan If you wanted a netflix machine. The android app streams at a super low resolution, and when shown on a big screen it sucks.
Some live wallpapers don't work, and apps made with low resolution graphics suck.
All in all, for skype it is great, the reason I bought it. Gaming is ok, the air mouse is a cool feature after learning to use it. Now that the play store works, I'm a happy guy.
The memory storage is goofy however. There is 8gb of storage, but only 500mb for apps on the data partition. The rest is nan storage which I think works similar to an SD card. You can transfer your installed apps to it, but by default they install to thelower storage first.
I am not sure if I'd recommend it yet, but it is a cool thing for a Skype device. It seems to be a beta product yet though.

You have to use the service center app or from the website and download the firmware image.

How To: Install Sony's New PlayStation Mobile For Android On Any Rooted Device

Sony's PlayStation Mobile for Android just went live for certified devices last night. But what if you don't have a certified device, which so far includes only a number of Sony phones and tablets as well as the HTC One series? Heck, I have a One series device - the EVO LTE - but turns out it's not certified. That's just silly.
Not a problem - if you have root on your phone or tablet, getting the PSM (PlayStation Mobile) apk to work is a matter of pushing a few files it relies on to your /system directory and rebooting. Original credit goes to XxXPachaXxX - I used his work from a few months ago, took out some extra unnecessary Bravia engine stuff, and repacked it into a flashable zip for use with the PSM.
Here is PS Mobile running on my Nexus 7:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
On the Nexus 7, I was able to play the free game and successfully tested a paid game called Fuel Tiracas. They both worked wonderfully. I also bought Samurai Beatdown, but for some reason it didn't install right (I tried 3 times but the download just said installation unsuccessful, hmmm).
Unfortunately, PSM crashes upon loading the store front on my EVO LTE. If you're not using a certified device, don't be surprised if it crashes on yours too - after all, it wasn't certified and, therefore, not tested.
HERE IS VIDEO FOR INSTALLING THE PSM
video BY Devicecustomizer
Step 1.
Download and install the latest PSM apk from Sony. I mirrored the current version, 1.0, here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?7wvag1n78y2a393
http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390113915771290046
http://d-h.st/cyF
http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/MAMYVY06/
If you try to run the PSM app now, you'll likely get this:
Step 2.
Download the flashable zip I packed from one of these mirrors:
http://beta.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390113915771290047
http://www.mediafire.com/?sd2upzy00m1x5e6
http://d-h.st/hr8
http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/1GZFXIM8/
Step 3.
Note: Just to be clear once again, you have to be rooted to install the helper files com.playstation.playstationcertified.jar and com.playstation.playstationcertified.xml. If you're not rooted yet, first figure out how to do so to your device and then come back.
Flash the zip from custom recovery, like ClockworkMod or TWRP. This relies on having busybox, which if you're rooted, you likely already do.
Alternatively, if you don't want to flash from recovery or just like to know what you're doing, you can perform the steps manually while booted into Android:
Unzip the zip file downloaded in step 2.
Copy playcertetcpermissionscom.playstation.playstationcertified.xml to /system/etc/permissions/ on your device.
Copy playcertframeworkcom.playstation.playstationcertified.jar to /system/framework/ on your device.
Set the permissions on com.playstation.playstationcertified.jar to 644 (read/write, read, read) using your favorite file manager or command line.
Reboot.
At this point, PSM should work just fine and you should no longer see the error from Step 1. Go register for a Sony Entertainment Network account if you haven't yet and try playing some games.

Cheers! Worked fine over wi-fi on win 8.1 x64 and stock 4.2.2 on the i9500
my mobile rebooted after the connection ,,, its on " Samy Deluxe S4 ROM Galaxy S5 " what i can do ???
BTW my mobile is i9505
On stock i9505 works well on both wifi and usb (less lag on usb though). After 30 min of usage phone gets very hot, but it is normal i guess because of the high data transfer and the fact that it keeps the phone awake.

And what pisses me off?? When someone in How to/manual/tutorial etc writes "set permissions". HOW THE HELL SHOULD I KNOW HOW?! There are many combinations like RWXRWX--- ---RW---X etc. Can someone give correct permissions?

Sadly doesn't seem to be working with non TW based Roms.
Slimkat 4.4.2 here, com.sec.android.sidesync.source-1.apk doesn't get installed in any way and without the source app com.sec.android.sidesync30-1.apk is crashing when im trying to run it.
Latest Version
Side Sync 3.0.4.7 :- Download
I suggest to use root explorer to copy files in zip to /Data/App - do not install them, then set permissions to 644(rw-r--r--), reboot. Run 1st on pc, then on phone.

just s small comment, there is already a freeware solution for this- MyMobiler (www.mymobiler.com). You have to be rooted, USB debugging enabled, for connection over WiFi, ADB wifi must be enabled.

could you show me the way to enable ADB. I can connect my phone and PC via wifi, but cannot do the same via USB. I enabled USB debug. thanks!
usually when you connect pc to phone and there is any app trying to use adb, a SuperSU pop-up appears, asking whether you want to allow grant it root access.

I've tried changing the time stamps but nothing seems to work. Can someone upload to another host? or shed light on what to do with the time stamps?
I don't see any info regarding an update anywhere on the web. You would think someone would write about it.
Hey,
I'll try to reverse the update process over the next days, it seems it requires more than just valid timestamp to receive the valid download.
This update is an OTA update and does not contain the full system image. Mounting the rootfs fails, I think it's more likely an incremental patch file or similar.
Nevertheless, you can easily sniff it yourself. Just make sure you use an on-device sniffer because Samsung uses a technique to bypass proxies.
Once set-up, start the Gear Manager on your phone and search for an update for your watch.
Furthermore I requested the open-source parts of the Gear S2 at Samsung. They made available the files for the last firmware here:
opensource.samsung.com - search for SM-R720

It's more likely for research. Normally you simply update via the Gear Manager. Nevertheless it should be possible to upload the file via Odin as well.
There is a new version of it called NetOdin especially for non USB devices like this.

It's more likely for research. Normally you simply update via the Gear Manager. Nevertheless it should be possible to upload the file via Odin as well.
There is a new version of it called NetOdin especially for non USB devices like this.

Have you a link to NetOdin? I can't see it anywhere

is this firmware update worth side loading? I don't think people on "Non Supported" devices will be able to get the update normally, so this might be the only option.

I agree, I did not notice any major changes after the update.
As said, this is for research purpose in my view. The update *should* only be applied via the official Samsung Gear app. This update file is for the Classic Bluetooth EU version btw.
Anyway, since the files seem to be patches and not a full OS, we might not go too far with this. Mounting does not work for me, so rooting can not be applied to it, yet
If someone finds the full firmware somehow (maybe call Samsung and pretend a brick?), let us know

Interesting, someone succsessfully testet this update? I am quite interessted in this Version because of my US Version of my S2 classic. Can I overwrite es US setting for the metric system and my anguage s-voice?
I can't really deal with that fahrenheit degree.
Does this update fix the notification issues? The issues I see is when the watch doesn't show the always on screen it will not vibrate when notifications come in.
I just got the update on my s2 sport and have not really noticed any differences. It said performance so maybe the battery life will be a little better than what it already is! I'll keep playing with it to see if there are any changes I'm missing.
Got the update last night and so far, no real changes. There is susposed to be an update in November to enable Samsung Pay. Can't see that this update has that.
I can confirm that I have repeatedly been able reconnect my S2 to my Nexus 5 on Marshmallow after I installed the S2 firmware update that was available in the USA in the Gear app under the About Gear settings. I went from firmware version R720XXU2AOIL to R720XXU2AOJ3. I found that even after installing the firmware, I had to do one Light Reset on the S2 before the S2 would reconnect.
So far so good. Have intentionally gone out of range 6 times and reconnected all 6 times. Will report back if situation changes.
There is a firmware update available for the watch from the gear manager. My update was 5.30MB in size and says it has bug fixes.

S10e Official Android 11 is here and it Rocks !

As some of you may know s10e new stockfirmware has rolled out..or at least for some exynos versions, SM-G970F in my case.
Just so you are aware: the Maj doesn't seem to be on OTA yet and so i used the well known Samfirm software to get it.
Then I flashed it with ODIN and I was done. (Coming from custom).
The only official android 11 yet is from Switzerland (Global Version)
From SamFirm
--This firmware has version number PDA G970FXXU9ETLJ and CSC G970FOXM9ETLJ. The operating system of this firmware is Android 11 , with build date Tue, 29 Dec 2020 08:41:15 +0000. Security patch date is 2021-01-01, with changelist 20607146. --

So you know just 2 things: 1: Battery has drastically improved 2: The rom has been cleaned of many bloatwares by samsung itself
The benchmark results are really impressive:
- 3Dmark tells me that i outperform 100% of any tested s10e devices and that any existing android 11 models (that are probably on customs) have a score 100 pts lower than me.

To conclude I ll just say that finally we have an official rom that makes this phone great. Excellent performance and finally really good battery life! And almost...free of bloatwares
Thanks for the info!
Is there a way to make the phone think it's in Switzerland in order to receive the update right now as well?
No, even travelling to Switzerland wouldn't help ;-)
You can download the firmware by using Frija oder Samfirm Reborn (set CSC to 'AUT') and afterwards flash it with ODIN.
Thanks, I can confirm the high score on this benchmark with stock android 11!
I flashed this rom via odin. Everything is fine, but I noticed that I couldn't enter recovery mode. I tried volume up + bixby + power button, then I tried volume dwn + bixby + power button. Nothing seemed to work. Before upgrade on android 10 I could enter recovery mode via first combination.
At least I was able to enter recovery via ADB.
i ve read it somewhere, but you need to have an USB cable connected to enter recovery now, give it a try.
Thanks for the first impression. Can you please say something about the handling of the Bixby Button, can you still put any other app on it? Also, does the dual screen feature work like before? I assume that cloned apps via the secure folder are still working, too?
Android 11 DBT and ROM CSC are available via SmartSwitch right Now, just checked and downloaded on Frija.

Yes you can still assign any app to the bixby button and split screen is also working as in OneUI 2.5. I do not use secur folders so I cannot answer your 3rd question.

I'm using odin but fail
Best thing: the share menu works again. it was broken in One UI 2.
The new integrated password fill in keyboard is nice too.
Anything else is not that impressive to me. I don't like the new animation effect when pulling the notifications down.
Can i downgrade from Android 11? It seems to be less possibility than 9
ODIN can us for downgrade from 11, or it is bricked the phone?
Can someone confirm if the Gear VR still works with the S10e on One UI 3.0? Thanks in advance.
Using two bluetooth speakers at once was broken in one ui 2.0.
Do we know if it's back in 3.0?
I have the g9700 here despite I'm in Spain.
Hopefully we're getting the update soon.
Love this phone as if it was the first day owning it lmao.
A11 Update is available since yesterday...
