    Well, I think playing with cables in car installation is already too hardcore mod

    Anyway, I have advanced a little bit. I have removed all Samsung Galaxy Carmode and Button Savior nor Easy Touch from the phone. Now I have installed on my phone only LG MirrorDrive and the built-in MirrorLink (which is part of Android 7 system). The procedure is following:

    - Don't launch LG MirrorDrive or any other Carmode aplication or Button Savior or Easy Touch on the phone
    - Launch Nextgen or any other application you want to mirror on infotainment
    - Connect phone via USB to the car
    - Confirm the message about MTP access on your phone
    - Confirm to use MirrorLink on your infotainment
    - You should now get the screen mirrored and see your application

    Using this procedure you will get mirrored the current screen on the phone. You can also start it only with the phone desktop and and then launch the application. However any change on phone desktop terminates LG MirrorDrive and the infotainment will show the list of MirrorLink enabled applications on your phone. In this case you have to run LG MirrorDrive from the infotainment screen and maybe also press the button 1:1 to switch to the phone screen. It is not always reliable, sometimes it is needed to repeat it.

    Unfortunately in my case it works only when the car does not move. If car starts moving, it kills the screen, saying that this application is not certified for use when the car is in motion. I have no solution for this. It seems the only way is to code the radio and disable VIM
