[Connected Car] donaldta:
If it is like Asteroid Smart, the unit has a motion/shock sensor which works to reawake the unit when you open the car door (or other vibration). This is done to speed up the startup process. However the system shuts down after the Display is off for more than 10 minutes but it could be reset on movement which might be why people are quoting "15" minutes instead of the 10 minute shutdown timer.

This is controlled by the build.prop and so far there's finite possibility from it not coming back up... unless maybe it was caused by some major goof up or act of god, like deciding to flood their interior to make it into a hot tub or a meteorite crash landing on the car.

Just FYI there are "no known/safe ways to get there". The SCT has never been rooted before so we don't know if there are or will be any impacts. Even with the Asteroid Smart there still is a risk associated when trying to root it. However, these are calculated risks which are in OUR favor.

Something that you (OR ANYONE WITH A SCT) can do to help us out BEFORE tomorrow is to go through the list of applications which are available to you through the Asteroid Market and let us know which ones they are. And, you don't even need to be inside your Volvo, you can look at what's available through the web browser of your computer, phone, tablet, tv or whatever.

Between gekkekoe123 and I, we've asked for this enough times that one of you guys should have at least been able to identify if the Asteroid Messenger app is available to you through Parrot's Asteroid Market. Heck, if you really want to help us then and have extra time then download as many of them as you can at howe, so that when you have time tomorrow to test things then you pull copies of their unencrypted APKs and provide them to us.

Honestly, the kudos that you guys give us are nice and I appreciate immensely BUT I would appreciate it even more if you guys would be more interactive with us and provide as feedback that we've been asking for. You guys don't know how frustrating it is trying to help when very little feedback is given back in return. At the very least, please hit the ":good: Thanks" button on our posts so that we know you guys are reading them and understand. And if there is anything that you don't understand please ask questions. Don't be embarrassed if any of this is foreign to you, we're here to help and would gladly take time to help you understand.

Yeah, I could but would rather not. At 19 megabytes, the wikango.apk by itself is way too large for our purposes. That size would prevent it from being added as an attachment to the thread. One of the reasons I picked Asteroid Messenger was not only because of its directory and file structure but because of its data footprint. It is small enough that it is trivial to share inside these posts, as opposed to rehosting it on some third-party site. The steps are all there so if someone else wants to do it then I have no problem with it.

I figured it out pretty quickly when I tried to merge Asteroid Messenger into itself and saw the, "Unsupported major minor version 51.0 error." A quick google search explains that this basically means that the java project was compiled with JRE7 and I'm trying to run it in JRE6.
