Well i decided to just try and install the vending apt from the parrot sd app installer. all seemed well it asked me to put in my google id ect. the market seems to be the old android market. i navigated to my purchased app and tried to download tom-tom that i had brought for my s4. it crashed and asked me to force close then i reopened the app and it said started downloading. its been like that for about 20 mins now. seems any app that i try to download just sits there and doesn't do anything!! HELP!!!!!!

Desperate to install tomtom for my drive to cornwall next week!
[Android General] Taomyn:
You don't install it, you simply reboot as it's a system app and it will find it.

Not sure what the problem is now - all I know is that I copied the framework and vending APKs from a copy of Gingerbread 2.3.7 Apps package to the system folder, rebooted and after entering my details all seemed to be working. You then need to leave it a while connected so it can update at least Market to the newer Play App.
[Android General] Craig220889:
ok i will have another go and see if i can get it working again! are there any up to date files i should be using as atm I'm using the ones posted on page 33
[Android General] Taomyn:
I went to the Goo.IM website for their versions of the files for Gingerbread 2.3.7: http://goo.im/gapps and extracted them from that
[Android General] Craig220889:
I have done the following. Unrooted, reboot, Rooted, Reboot, Installed the google framework, Rebooted, Then copied the Vending apt to the system/app folder and changed the Permissions, Rebooted. Checked to see if the market store appears in my app and it doesn't.

Any other ideas?????
[Android General] Taomyn:
You could try manually installing the latest version of the Play store app APK: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...ption-tweaked-ui-forced-self-update-and-more/
[Android General] Craig220889:
install in via the normal way ?? I.E from the sd card through the setting/applications menu???
[Android General] Taomyn:
Yes, though I would use the file manager to kick it off
[Android General] Craig220889:
Well I'm finally getting somewhere, managed to get it installed and my google account set up! only problem is the app keeps stopping all the time and i have to force quit, i haven't been able to get past clocking onto tom-tom in my installed app without it closing down because of an error
[Android General] Taomyn:
You may need to clear the settings for both the framework and the play app (in the app manager) - then connect to Google again. Maybe an earlier attempt has corrupted the settings.
[Android General] Craig220889:
Just tried that! no difference keep getting to the same point where you press download and then it appears! overtime after that you get the same message when trying to open the app! only way to get back in is clear the settings or reboot
[Android General] Taomyn:
I'm wondering if there's another system app that needs clearing, as that's a frequent reason for these kinds of issues in Android. Maybe someone else has a new idea for you.
[Android General] SpeakGeek:
Nice... I'll try that. What about configuring the Calendar to sync with GCalendar?

Asteroid Smart not holding settings on reboot

Has anyone had an issue with a rooted Parrot Asteroid Smart where upon reboot setting are not holding? eg tunein radio sometime says you need a reboot for all functions to work correctly (which is normal after the initial install but keeps reoccuring). Also google navigation disclaimer keeps coming back even though I check the box and it should not appear.

Loud Sound after i turn off my car

I have a PAS with AMP and Sub for around 4 months and I am very happy with the unit everything works perfectly but my problem is every time that I turn off my car, after about 30 seconds you hear loud BOOM that comes from the speakers and sub, I really do not know if this is normal in the PAS or i have a problem on my amp or sub.

Thanks
[Android General] Joe333x:
Its the HU that causes this but it was fixed in an update, have you updated the unit?
[Android General] horn34:
Make sure your amp remote turn on lead is connected to the PAS ACC wire, not the power antenna wire.

If it's already connected to the ACC wire and you're on the latest firmware, congrats, you've got the same popping problem the rest of us with amps and the PAS unit deal with. You can buy 3rd party devices (pop stoppers), but I don't know anyone that's used one with the PAS so no idea if they're effective with our setups or not.

---------- Post added at 01:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:16 AM ----------

I've tried several times with different configurations, Tomtom always throws up the "unable to connect to tomtom" error.

Working version of Google Maps?

Does anyone know if there is a version of Google Maps that works with the PAS?

I just rooted, got the framework and the store on. Downloaded Play Music, but was quite disappointed when I found that Maps didn't work!

Thanks!
[Android General] m.a.c.:
The version of Google Maps linked to in this post works perfectly on my PAS.

Hi,

Does someone tried this ?

There's an 38 update (FWP038UNMK38_85) on Paser website (Unika OEM manufacturer)

http://www.paser.it/down.php?download_id=649

My PAS is coming to me today or monday at last... really impatient to plug and tweak it !

I've received my PAS + Unika yesterday.

After update it to 2.19 and upgraded GPS firmware too, I've updated my unika to v38 flawlessy with the method quoted.

The PAS is now rooted with framaroot, tweaked with Asteroid Tweaker and with playstore enabled :)

A little bit disapointed because SSL is not available via DS Audio on android 2.x...

TODO :

- Order the correct wires/connectors to SVXdc (on Nasioc forums) to get my oem rearcam (with rear gear detection), linein arm rest port, oem subwoofer, and steerwheel command woks properly :)

- Find a cover to hide the hole around the PAS

- plug the usb arm rest port with adapter ordered on amazon...

can't wait :)
[Android General] coreyzw:
Mine was doing the sub pop really badly.. Traced it down to the head unit sending data/sound over the subwoofer RCA's on device start. Freaking blew my sub (10w3v3) and I had to replace it. When I did, I disabled the Sub RCA's and now have all the signal going through my primary amp and letting it do the crossover for the subwoofer.

Previously:

->Primary Amp

SMART

-> Sub Amp

Now:

SMART ->Primary Amp->Sub Amp

Havent had a single pop or issue since.
[Android General] K_Hismoom:
It's not resolved, I also suffer from it, but as it seems, no one has ever found a fix for it.

Is there an improvement or something significant with the Unika v.38 firmware ?
[Android General] yanfox:
Without this update, when I poweroff my car (Subaru Forester 11') the PAS still stay powered. Now it shuts down properly

It allows the use of additional buttons on the steering wheel control. So if you have more you can have dedicated voice commands for both dialing and playing music
[Android General] lepaske:
Merci Yanfox.

And thanks Breakthestatic for your answers.

After the update do I have to have access to the Unika to maybe reset-it or it is just a "software" update and it works right away ?
[Android General] breakthestatic:
I didn't have to do anything. Just rebooted after everything was done and the extra swc button was automatically mapped to the music voice recognition.
[Android General] lepaske:
Good news ! I was afraid the Unika need a hard reset which means open the dashboard and everything...

Thanks again for your answers. I will make the update soon I think !
[Android General] yanfox:

It dépends of your car... Resistive or CAN bus I guess.

For my car I'll do a reset to remap buttons (resisitve bus of course). When you use CAN I think it's auto setted up

I finally made the UNIKA update but no extra buttons for me...I suppose it's car related then.

In fact I didn't notice a change except it's now written Firmware 38 !
[Android General] yanfox:
It changes everything ! Like you said it depend on car model...

I just read something wrong with this device, when you use the resistive protocol, the resistance varies with temperature... it can cause problems with the SWC...

We'll see that this summer, stay tunned ;)
[Android General] tbd@immigrantsong.de:
IN theory you're right, but on the one hand the defined resistances vary greatly, so that a mixup requires a massive change and on the other hand even the cheapest resistors have a very low thermal coefficient.

Never heard of it being an issue in reality.

I hope you're right :)

Rooting Asteroid Tablet ( Not SMART )

_____________________________________________________

Hello I recently purchased the Asteroid tablet running 2.15 software and I had a look at the apps on the Asteroid Apps store and they are terrible, would like to get some decent maps and xmbc software onto the Tablet.

Can you send me details on how you managed to root your tablet please if you manage to see this reply? ( email address is gerardmcgrath@gmail.com )

thanks in advance,

[Android General] horn34:
Those of us with amp "pops" are experiencing them when the car turns on or when the PAS motion sensor engages the pre-outs.... not turning off. I've been installing car stereos in different cars since I was 15 (25 years ago) and I've never ran into an issue like this I couldn't easily fix. Until now. In every single case where I found something like this, it was a bad ground, remote lead connected to the antenna lead or something similar.

That is not the case here. The PAS is sending a voltage spike through the pre-amp outs when it shouldn't. That's it. Too many people who have car audio installation experience have reported the same experience for it to be some kind of fluke. Someone reported they had eliminated the issue by not using the SW pre-amp outs, which is fine for them, but we shouldn't have to do that. I have 2 of these units and bought them in part due to the fact that they have front, rear and SW pre-amps. This is something Parrot needs to fix and not something we should have to troubleshoot and work around.
[Android General] swyner:
Interesting. I don't disagree with you at all but I have no "pops" on startup either fresh cold boot or when I see the sensor kick on (power light flashes once). I have tried to make it happen but have not seen the exact voltage flow from when the sensor engages. Would be interesting to see if the sensor "wake up" triggers the amp to turn on as I believe mine is not. Keep in mind that my car is a VW GTI which has the remote turn on controlled by the Canbus NOT the power harness or through a fuse/other 12V ignition. Maybe the Canbus is controlling that trigger and the PAS upon motion wake up is not using that 12V trigger (which is can't really because it's controlled by my ignition - canbus communication). Again, since I tapped the same 12V trigger for the PAS and the AMP, that could be why mine is fine....

rdio app

I'm running a rooted asteroid smart and I only noticed today that rdio is now available in the asteroid market (I has installed the one from the play store but could never get it to work).

However, whilst it seems to have installed ok, everytime I open the app I get a message saying that the system needs to be rebooted to get access to all the features, I reboot the asteroid, but the next time I open rdio I get the same message.

Anyone else had any luck (or not) with the asteroid compatible rdio app?

Spotify

the last upgrade of spotify does not work anymore, download the new version of spotify, but is not the same spotify app, on the play store if you lookfor spotify two apps with the spotify name are going to show up, or just when you open spotify on your PAS the app will guide you directly to the correct app, just download it, install it and the app automatically will guide you to unistall the previous version.

I've been out of this thread for awhile. I'm still loving my unit . . . when it works. I get frustrated to no end when fricken bluetooth sync is killing performance & trying to navigate glympse takes 3-4 mins before the thing responds.

I haven't even installed the Axxess SWC adapater I bought months ago!

I'm still on a later firmware (2.1.2?) & I know they've updated since, but I haven't had the time to tinker & update. Has some of that been addressed? Is there any talk about a Version 2? I'd buy it in heartbeat to get rid of these lag issues with more ram/faster cpu.

[Android General] swyner:
New ROM??
[Android General] rhconcepts:
Pops are from cheap amps and from the things you listed and this.

I learned something last year that stops or cuts back on the pops. Try lowering the voltage of the remote turn on. If you have a remote wire that send more voltage then needed then it back feeds into the rca's at the amp end. Try adding resistors to the remote wire, take the voltage down enough until the amp just turns on then add a bit more voltage.
