Not dead at all. Here is a video of my latest setup. As soon as it connects with the Kinivo BTC455 or I ask the assistant to enable it, it enters Car Mode like this:
Enabling Car Mode
What happens:
- Device gets unlocked without asking passcode
- Auto Brightness, VPN and Hotspot gets enabled
- Spotify starts and the last song begins playing and the volume gets maximized
- Flitsmeister starts, a Dutch police traps and trafic jams app
- Waze starts for navigation purposes
- The screens gets split so I can see navigation and police traps/traffic jams
- When I turn the car off, device gets locked and hotspot gets turned off
You'll need an iPhone or iPad with a jailbreak and the following tweaks:
- Activator, to enable all the activation stuff
- Activate Command, to program all the events happening under the hood to start the apps and split the screen
- Assistant+, to enable custom voice commands
- ByPass, to bypass entering passcode
- FullForce, to force iPhone apps to fit the iPad screen
- ReachApp, for the splitscreen
- ReachAll, to enable Reachability on the iPad Mini
