  • Is Power Amp installed from Google Play or side loaded? Android Auto will inexplicably refuse to launch side loaded apps half of the time. If it is launching but no audio is coming out, this isn’t the solution for you

    To get around that I download my app (in my case, CoMaps) via Obtainium + Shizuku with the option “Set Google Play as the installation source”

    Since Poweramp isn’t FOSS, you’ll have to download their provided apk & move it to /data/local/tmp with adb

    Then you can run pm install -i "com.android.vending" /data/local/tmp/Poweramp-build-999-uni.apk

    This will overwrite the installed app’s installation source with Google Play and let Android Auto work with it

    Prof said this in an econ class that like, 25% of students drop after the first exam. Had me sweating balls and was extremely stressed about it.

    Turns out my heavily Republican college classmates were just especially stupid when it comes to econ. He was one of the best professors I ever took.

    The professors whose classes everyone passes are the ones you learn nothing in.




  • An example looks something like this

    (It shows an one adapter in the first image but it shows an actual harness further down)

    I didn’t see one for Mercedes on that site, but it sounds like it mentions the existence of them here under method 3

    Installation usually involves:

    • Accessing the wiring behind your start/stop button

    • Installing the module inline with the existing harness

    • Securing the module in a hidden location

    That page also suggests that you may be able to disable it with a programming tool on some models. Depending on what you have I’d give that a try first
