[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] R4D3N:
I have a couple of questions regarding e46 unit.

1. In iGo Primo the taskbar remains visible in the upper part of the screen. How can I hide it? In other programs like youtube.bmwhat it is hidden automatically but in iGo I can';t make it go away and I don't want it there.

I already tried adding this in sys.txt , without any luck.

show_status_bar=0

fullscreen=1

2. Whenever I start the unit by putting the key in ignition, it starts as normal, replay the song from where it was before stopping it but then it pauses it and I have to go and press play so that it continues playing.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kwalsh24:
I understand where you were going with the wire re-route, but the only problem is with my car there's no accessory. Just a on and off line as canbus does the accessory (which also isnt work right with the radio)

Ill investigate the add-on items, I just feel as tho a 500 dollar radio shouldn't have issues like this. The power off pop is consistent, the other pop only happens when the radio is already on & has the internal amp mute (so it seems) So I dont think a on/off adapter will fix that as the amp is already on at this point.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
It might be an issue specifically with the version of iGO that comes with the unit. I upgraded mine to a later version, and it displays full screen.

I think if you use the CarAudioService that [MENTION=5867075]KeiserSozeyFr[/MENTION] developed you can get it to auto-play when the headunit powers up.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] R4D3N:
Can you please send me which bersion of iGo primo are you using? I tried to change it but it shows only on 1/4of the screen even if the resoluton is the correct one.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Ah, not having an ACC line makes it more difficult. And while I agree that a unit of this price shouldn't have these issues, there have been major brands at even higher prices that suffer from poor internal amp/DAC implementations. I had a $1200 Kenwood nav that would thump the sub every time I got out of the car. Quite irritating indeed.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kwalsh24:
Yeah, I thought of that after I made my comment, sadly my crappy audiosources unit didnt do this, nor did my last 2 clarion units. So this is the first time frustrations. I was looking at the Stinger SGN21 on/off pop eliminator, but I may wait and see if I can figure something out with my new canbus interface, It has a remote on/off line on it that may or may not help things. Just gotta wait for the radio harness to come so I can build the new harness with the axxess canbus unit.

Good news for Sygic users :)

I have found solution how to make Sygic to work on ours devices.

It is wery easy and it finaly works for me, and I would like to share it with others. You can make it in two steps.

First of all you have to install rooted ROM. I have install update_4_4_4_RK3066_1024X600_7_MAL_14_05_2015.rar

You can find rooted rom for your device on this link https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BxmzvLRI7-eNeVA2SWkwM1pLZ28&usp=sharing#listv

When you done you have to install Xposed IMEI Changer. You can find it at Google Play Store and start the app. Xposed Installer will prompt up and you have to give permissions to IMEI Changer and to install Framework if you did not already.

Than yo have to open IMEI changer and copy IMEI code from your smartphone. (I have HTC M7 and IMEI code you can find in Settings-Info-Tlefon identity.

After that you have to reboot device and open IMEI changer to see is it new IMEI applied.

If it is, than you have to go to Google Play Store, install Sygic and download maps.

Result you can see on attached image.

I hope that it will work for others.

Wifi failing to turn on

So I'm wondering if anyone can provide any info on how to resolve an issue i am having here. I own a JY headunit that I've been running for several months now. Recently i noticed my wifi was turned off on boot but usually stays on as it was when shutting off. Now today my wifi won't turn on period. Thinking it was an issue with my rom I loaded up a new JY 4.4.4 rooted image but still unable to turn on wifi. Sits at Turning on Wifi for about 20 seconds then turns back off.

Any assistance would be appreciated!

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] eastberkshirecustoms:
I'm curious if the screen issue is isolated to those of who have upgraded. I do know that I can purchase my model HU with the RK3188, same screen, same resolution. I can't imagine that the manufacturers are selling them out of the box with image issues? Perhaps they do have an mcu fix that they are not willing to share at this time? I guess time will tell. As there has been no fix, I may have to bite the bullet and purchase a new HU.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pk313:
Why you say that this AF radio function is related and inside on MCU?

that's new for me

I was thinking the problem was in some wrong RDS line command function on MTCRadio apk

Somebody know more about that?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] abezze:
Thanks,

I solved using PowerAmp instead if MTCMusic as default player.

But the strange behaviour on MTCMusic does affected only me? How can it be possible?

I experienced that in all my Malaysk rom with standard launcher since the version built in 15 january 2015.

I always did a factory reset after upgrading.

All my mp3 files have a cover picture inside the file and maybe the player try to send the picture to the launcher when I press the HOME button. This could be the extra data sent empty.... that generates the exception....

I'm experiencing a problem on the MCU KLD6 v2.54 installed on a KLD device, factory installed was KLD v2.20

After 2 minutes of listening music without changing the volume, it goes mute, no audio, but the mp3 is playing.

If I touch the volume I get the sound.... If the volume is GALA gps modified within 2 minutes it doesn't mute.

I'm Waiting for a MCU with more than 30 sec of stand-by.... 2 hour was good for me...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] :
Are you sure? Maybe the mcu communication app on Android, yes. But the mcu is still a big unknown. It needs good effort to reverse engineer.

If someone knows more, let us know!

I want to help reversing my units mcu when it arrives. If we are lucky the other manufactures mcu code is very similar. And we can fully control all different manufactures devices. But it's a sh*t load of work.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
There have been 2 people who say they have the high res/quad core combo but neither have replied when I ask if its fully working. I heard back from Klyde today I was told the engineer is off sick and there is a problem uploading the file, it keeps failing because it is 300Mb + apparently. I ll keep you posted. Hold fire on getting a new units, its only been a week or 10 days I think, I m sure we ll get it sorted. Its almost certainly nothing to do with the MCU, it gonna be something to do with how Android communicates with the touchscreen.

LOL ! :)

It was decompiled and it was found that all versions are very similar, just slight differences in code. If you go to the fileserver and look there is something there. It was done about a year ago by a German man, I think. No one has any experience with the code though, that is the problem, although I think the Russians do, I have tried the modified KLD 2.55 MCU from yesterday and I think there is a slight improvement in sound.

You do NOT need to know the brand - you can use ANY brand of Android version on ANY unit, as long as you pick the correct processor type and screen res.

If you dont have it its likely you do not have one of these units, post a screen shot of your "about" screen in settings. Its only on the left side if you have a 1024x600 screen, 800x480 screens do not have 2 panels in settings.

DSA's firmware is pretty much anything from March onwards, no separate folder for his ROMs.

Probably not, ask him if its compatible with RK3066/Rk3188 processors.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] tt40:
I will not open my dash to check the version, but I have a Canbus box that looked just like the one in your picture. I have it in a 2013 Passat and with an KGL4 RK3066 unit that works reasonably well. In Factory Setting, I chose the basic VW Simple Canbus option (# 1 on the list I believe). It gives me hardware button assignments, the wheel position/trajectory superimposed on the rearview camera image and the AC/temperatiure/ventillation settings displayed on the headunit (actually this is pretty useless and confusing). At some point I could see the doors being open but not anymore. Not sure why. Possibly an MCU update took it away. I am on an MCU version 47, I think. I have tried a newer one but my power button would not work so I reverted. Other CANbus version choices work too, but the above is the only one that shows the rear trajectory and AC controls.
