Hi all,


Spoke to Samsung today. Drive Link has been removed from the app store and is no longer supported by Samsung.


However, the say a new app 'is under certification for registering with Samsung Galaxy'.


Hopefully we should have a working app soon.

Mirrorlink is going to be part of the oem os build on the latest handsets

Note 4 being first unit to have it as part of the firmware

Built in the same as Apple's Airplay is? In that's case good news, we won't have to rely on the app store updating.

puts you no further forward unless a firmware for the headunit is released ...

has anyone with an android handset tried the toyota released 810 firmware?

Drive Link app updated

As they promised me earlier this week, samsung have updated their Drive Link app yesterday:

It connected fine but I haven't fully tested it yet.

I'm using a Samsung Note 2 - Android 4.4.2

Isn't a standard a standard though? For example each time a bluetooth phone comes out you don't need a firmware update on the car. Why isnt mirror link built on standards?

My car is booked in for an update now, apparently it will take two days. I'll let you know if it affects mirror link or not

and Samsung pull the app days after they post it :-(

so annoyed... considering upgrading my phone... would be super annoyed if I get a new phone and they fix mirrorlink for an older phone!

I think this is still early days for standards. I suspect Apple Car Play and Googles Andriod in the car will take over to be the main standards.

I have bought a 108 TOP! today and have a Galaxy Note 3 and was a little disappointed to have read that it will not link with the Mirror Screen tech.

I have read that the Note 3 will gain the Android update inline with the Note 4 sometime during January. I wonder if this will include the Mirrorlink certification?

 

[McParker]

It sounds like it will from what I read elsewhere.

It seems that the ROM update of Samsung Galaxy S5 to Android Lollipop (5.0) is ok to communicate with Mirrorlink
Does anyone has already try to plug to the Peugeot 108 his S5 newly updated to Lollipop ?
