I have coudu"s 4.4.4 firmware. Calling via BT.

How can I set, that the name of the incoming caller appear on the HU instead of the phone number?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gy_ro:
Thanks for the tip.

I have a Hyundai Tucson, and for sure it has no built-in amp. Everything worked fine for about half a year, if my car had a built-in amp, I would have had other problems to start with from day one. My previous single din Pioneer and Sony carradio's did work and they were 4x45W carradio's.

My HU is connected to the white/white-black, green/green-black, purple/purple-black and grey/grey-black standard harnes as it is supposed to be. It's not the first time I build a radio/HU into one of my cars, I'm 200% sure everything is connected right. I had a talk (2 months long ...) with KGL and proved I had the same problem with different speakers in my lab too. They finally sent me a new amplifier ic. I only have to replace the defect one and test. Other pita is that the defect amplifier killed 3 out of 4 of my speakers ... so I have to replace those too before I can put everything back in the car.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ftsur:
I agree 100%. I was thinking the same thing when I read that post.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] zorantoma:
You have to erase all the blank spaces in the phone number on your phone.

this is wrong:+386 40 123 123

right is:040123123

that way i see all my contact names on my hu.Dont forget to resync the hu after the changes ware made.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Right, I ve heard of this problem before a few times in this thread, only with KGLs if I remember correctly and usually in VW/Audis, which can sometimes have amplified rear speakers which people may not know about, something I ve thought MAY be a reason why it happens. I would do some googling and make doubly sure that no versions of the Tucson didnt have a built in amp. If not, then lets hope the new IC sorts it and at least KGL are helping (even if it took 2 months).
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] obekende:
Hi fabio, i have the same unit from erisin, the unit update to mcu v1.86 and the coudu 4.4.4 KLD and so far so good, but and experienced KGL5 2.09 and everything works fine except that the radio always has the light on when I put the key in pocision 1, you have the same problem? and the stiks 3G have the same problem as you have, i tried with Huawei E1750 Vodafone 3g and kanguro (Nos) Portugal connected, and after 10,20 seconds lost coneccion, experienced in the front panel usb...

B, regards
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gy_ro:
I'll verify at my Hyundai carservice point and report back, but I believe/assume also the back isn't pre-amplified. If it is, I'm wondering why I didn't have problems with the 3 car stereo's I had in that car before.

And KGL is helpful, except you have to repeat every word ten times and are mailing to people (Bingo) that have no knowledge of electronics in the first place. They try to hold you off, but persistent as I am ... .Try to ask a question, if you are lucky you only have to ask 5 times ...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
No, no, dont bother with your dealer, they know f all, they just want to charge you silly money for doing basic work on your car, thats all they are interested in, just Google it a few times to check, I think its unlikely if you had other stereos, but they may have had built in IC protection or something.

The KGL problem is that youre dealing with sales people, not the engineers, who usually dont speak English - the sales people are trained in various languages so they can sell all over the world.

SWC controls with 3rd party apps

Here it is !

As I promised, my application to allow steering wheels buttons to control a 3rd party music player.

What my app is able to do:

- auto-play music at boot-up (sorry not possible to disable it for the moment)

- change track with steering wheel buttons or front panel buttons

- if music is paused, "next" button only resume current track. Otherwise, it go to next track

- pause current track when muting sound, resume it when mute OFF (only if music was playing before mute)

- double click on mute button pause the music next button to resume)

- pause music when receiving / making a call, resume it at the end of call.

- pause music when starting OEM radio application.

My application is not perfect, but works pretty well. There is some problems remaining like avoiding Android to kill the service sometimes.

Enjoy !

Even industrial PC's are only designed to run up to 160 f. I dont know what the maximum operating temperature of an touchscreen LCD panel is, but im willing to guess its not that high.

These units straddle the line between cheap and useful. I'm sure a unit could be designed to operate comfortably in 140 f conditions, but I don't think your going to find it in this price bracket.

Pioneer units operating temperature is up to 50c and a storage temp of 80c.

So this unit is not out of line with the rest of the industry.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] 1-2-Hak:
Here is the flow again (hopefully it comes through now)

Basically I have a two things happening here. When automagic starts (set to start on bootup) it waits 4s for everything to settle. I have one flow going to set automatic brightness (I do this as I set the brightness on the unit to low. this automatic brightness temporary sets it to bright until the headlights go on and then they screen goes dim again) This one i am still playing with

The other flow starts the shortcut to the amplifier system settings - waits 1 sec to make sure it gets there and clicks the loud button.

How easy is that!

Just need to make sure you set Automagic to have accessibility option (in the accessibility menu in settings)

You can even use Automagic for free if you use it from the Early adopters program http://automagic4android.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=3129

This is where Martin test his betas but once you try it you will want to buy it - cause it is awesome :)

So some more ideas. What if we keep the power on the unit and use the headlight wore as the accessory switch to turn the unit on and off (well suspend like the power button does.

We can detect when the lights go on so when they do we turn the screen on and when they go off we turn the screen off. Then we use Automagic to automatically turn the display lights on/off with the sunrise/sunset. That way the unit can stay in standby and start instantly :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] 1-2-Hak:
Well done! - will test this out soon (not that I have SWC) ;)

Would it possible to get a copy of the source? I would love to see the method you are using to do this - might help with some of my development.

Things I want to find to change.

Where does it detect the units instrument lights are turned on (so I can do above)

See if I can set loud programatically
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Like ALL headunits, the orange wire !!

Yeah sounds like its better than even headunits from the major manufacturers in that respect then, just not heard of that happening with any other headunits though.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
THanks a lot. Now the file is ok. All I was looking for was this:

android.intent.action.MAIN,com.android.settings/.MtcAmpSetup

as far as I understand this will trigger the amplifier settings, so then I can simulate the touch to set loud.

I already downloaded Automagic. If I do not succeed with Tasker, I will use automagic. :)

PS: regarding Loud. It is an option that must be inputed to some MCU app/settings. Would it not be easier to send the intent straight to the MCU (and probably store it somewhere) rather than poping up settings, and clicking ? Settings is just the middle man...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] 1-2-Hak:
Yeah - thanks for that.....

I mean programtically where do i find when this wire is energised. Can you answer that one ?

I have tried broadcasting to the receiver but no sucess so far. might be just me.

See if you can send the intent from Tasker....

the listener is com.microntek.loundchange (yes lound not loud)

this.MTCPloy = new BroadcastReceiver() {

public void onReceive(final Context context, final Intent intent) {

final String action = intent.getAction();

if (action.equals("com.microntek.eqchange")) {

MtcAmpSetup.this.updataEQ();

}

else if (action.equals("com.microntek.balancechange")) {

MtcAmpSetup.this.updataBalance();

}

else if (action.equals("com.microntek.loundchange")) {

MtcAmpSetup.this.updataLoud();

}

else if (action.equals("com.microntek.ampclose")) {

MtcAmpSetup.this.finish();

}

}

};

}

and action

private void updataLoud() {

if (this.mLound != null) {

if (Settings$System.getInt(this.getContentResolver(), "av_lud", 0) == 1) {

this.mLound.setChecked(true);

}

else {

this.mLound.setChecked(false);

}

}

}
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Ah, but you didnt say - was a legitinate answer to the question you asked.

Cant answer but, I d guess the MCU controls it.

When ? - I d say when the lights are turned on ! Or maybe low voltage when they are off switching to a higher voltage when they are on. Best get out to the car with a multimeter and see. Or maybe you meant how many miliseconds after the lights are turned on ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] 1-2-Hak:
I did say thanks.

You replies are so helpful.... ;)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Lol, no problems, your questions are so carefully worded, lol :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] KeiserSozeyFr:
Try triggering on the intent "com.microntek.light" and get the extra integer value "keyCode" and see what happens.

Cool. This does work. I can trigger the screen dimming. Just need to work out how to make it brighter again and adjust the level of dimming. Have you seen this in any module?

Look forward to viewing your code. I think its going to make our dev quicker :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] KeiserSozeyFr:
Yes, the old version of Google maps is installed by default on the device.

I use almost every day and it works with live traffic.

I don't know if the last version works, you cannot download it from play store but you can maybe get the apk and install it.

I did not try it because, in fact, I hate the last version !

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
Thanks a lot, I could automatize Loud with Tasker. Had some problems with the tap position as an app that I downloaded to check the coordinates, gave wrong ones... Took a while to figure it out. Still, I do not like the fact that it has to open settings and all this hassle.

But, I think it is possible to do it straight away without calling settings and MtcAmpSetup. I am not a Java expert, but I think that the problem is that the function that sets Loud is private.

private void updataLoud() {

if (this.mLound != null) {

if (Settings$System.getInt(this.getContentResolver(), "av_lud", 0) == 1) {

this.mLound.setChecked(true);

}

else {

this.mLound.setChecked(false);
​

because of that it cannot be called from outside the class right?

Here my suggestions:

a) find out what mLound.setChecked(true) actually does. It would be enough just changing somehow the variable it is modifying "setChecked(true)".

b) recompile settings with public updataLoud

c) use this Java code to execute the private void http://www.javacodegeeks.com/2012/06/calling-private-java-methods-publicly.html

It could be that all I said above is just bullsh*t, so please do not be too harsh on me...

No problem, the mechanic there is a good friend of mine, I'll ask him when he's at home :) .

I know they are salesmen, but if you have to ask a non technical question so often and it's the only subject in the mail, you simply know it's on purpose. Anyhow, with enough patience and keeping as polite as you can, they will help you. And I'm glad I didn't have to return the hu to claim my warranty. This way customs costs are kept as low as possible. I hope I have time to repair and test my unit next week, replace the speakers and get on with enjoying driving with it.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] n3m35155:
Did you flash the wrong screen resolution MCU maybe?

A wrong resolution mcu will show black until the OS boots up and not show a recovery screen.

Also check that you don't have an app auto dimming the screen based on time that is set to 0% brightness. This would make a black screen once the OS boots up completely.

And if you can't get into recovery to flash an MCU or update.IMG file; because of the wrong resolution, or other issue where it works but not all the time, put them on the GPS card root folder and boot it. The key is to wait for up to 5 min.

The units look for update files on bootup, you just can't see it in your case because the screen resolution may be wrong.

I recently purchased the same unit as iletumi, I was able to get everything working the way i wanted but for some reason the steering wheel controls didn't always work. When i got the unit installed first the options in the settings for steering wheel controls was programmed and setup. I since have done a factory reset and the steering wheel controls are not longer programed in that screen but they do show in the car service app. I do not have any previous and forward track buttons so i cannot see what their respective output is. Any help on this? Im really only wanting the Spotify control at this point.

Also I would love to root this unit but it came stock with 4.4.4. If i understand the thread correctly i can flash any version of android by placing an update.img on the gps card? If i go back to any 4.4.2 can i then root. Im not new to rooting but an very new to this method, ive done abd push, one click, and even odin.

Lost Connection - 3GStick

On my Erisin ES9746A (BMW e46) with Coudus 4.4.4 & MCU KGL 2.09, the 3G Sticks didn´t work for a long time.

If i join some area with less signal, the connection getting lost and didn`t come back.

Only if i put the Stick out & in again, the connection joined again (with all Sticks the only way to get access again).

I tried it with different Sticks, also the Huawei E 1750, ZTE MF667 and also with older Stick.

Maybe a 3GStick-Model with higher compatibility or a other ROM?
