[MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] can you ask Darkleo if he wants to make a music version of MTCB-MX-V2.55 version? The sound of my FM radio is terrible.

The reception of my fm radio is also bad. Do you have any idea if this is a hardware or a software problem?

Somebody could tell me, what a hell that launcher ???? :

Also looks good....
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kaween:
No problem.

1) the buttons and volume knob operate as you'd expect : the buttons have quite a long "travel" so you really have to press them all in, the volume knob works very pleasantly : I have a working SWC, but I'll use this knob quite often in everyday use as it's faster to use than pressing the volume button on my SWC system. If the mechanical feedback is not sufficient for you, you can let the unit produce a "beep" at each button press. Be advised, stranlgy if you use an external amp which is connected to the line/low signal level output, this "beep" will NOT be available anymore although selected. If you're using hi-level/speaker level output or the internal amp itself, the beep does work correctly.

2) I have front and back parking camera's, they are the typical analogue tv-like resolutions and support roughtly 400lines of video image. If you want to use a USB camera, that works (tried my daughter's C920 Logitech webcam just to see if it works, and it does. The image coming from the C920 was miles superior compared to the parking cameras -I'd lie if I'd say I would know for sure what resolution it ran, but it clearly was at least 720p, but as said, I ony use the analogue video ports of the unit to get parking video feedback)

So far, I've not had any special problems with the unit. With the original early mcu version, I sometimes had the odd situation that the power knob sometimes failed to work (you could turn it, but no change would occur). Rebooting the unit solved that. After updating the mcu to 2.59, I've not have seen that issue occuring anymore.

I have added an internal fan to the unit to beep the internals cooled down : I've posted a picture of how this looks like. I don't know if the fact I've never seen anything resembling a crash, lockup or wifi-issue with the unit is the result of this extra cooling (there have been users reporting wifi unstability due to the high temperature the Wifi chip reaches), but certainly with the current high temperatures (it was 53°C today in my car when I started it this afternoon ...) I'm pretty sure having the extra cooling is not a bad idea.

The internal mic stinks. The external mic stinks too. Modifying the internal mic system is absolutly needed when you want to use this units' handsfree features. The info needed to add this to the JY can be found following the links on the first page. I'm waiting on the low-cost amplifiers to add to the external mic to see if I can further enhance the sound quality of the external mic system.

[MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] for any future SystemUI edits or builds, can you kindly make one change to res/layouts/status_bar.xml?

<com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.KeyButtonView
android:id="[B][COLOR="Red"]@id/back[/COLOR][/B]"
android:src="@drawable/ic_sysbar_lock".....

Instead of re-using the resource id for the back button, can you create a new id? Something like @+id/syslock? This way you can leave the SystemUI alone, and for those that don't want the power button, they can install the xposed module I've built that hides that button. And future builds won't require a separately-modified SystemUI.apk with that layout edited.

EDIT: I just saw your post above with the modified SystemUIs. If you don't mind making modified ones after each firmware release, then no worries. Just trying to save you some time/effort.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
Wow !!! It is for this thank you very much. Future firmware I will do !!!

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
I'd have to look further into the KeyButtonView class to see if it's possible to block just the short-press and not the long-press. I think it probably is.

It would be fantastic !!! I tried to do it a few months, but unfortunately nothing happened. :(
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] eduarcor75:
Have you released that version? Or is just in testing right now?

It will be the same ROM as the RK3066 or will contains some variations? All the APPS will be like JY version or modified?

I am willing for using your rom, I am a really big fan of JY look and feel.

And for KGL there is anything stable? There is a way to backup the current one before udpating a new one?

Thank you very much. I learned a lot these days reading this thread... but is HUGE...

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Blaze Falconburger:
I am using Malaysk's latest ROM (nice work BTW), but o have a couple of issues:

1. It seems to take ages to boot. The launcher displays in a reasonable time and is responsive, but it then takes 1-2 minutes to load poweramp or to radio. I think I don't even see the MTC service icon start until a good long time after the launcher is ready. Any ideas how I can trouble shoot this?

2. Poweramp - it starts, but in Headunit service if I select send start command it stars but from the beginning of a track. If I disable this option it starts poweramp but paused at the last played position. Any ideas on this one?

Thanks all
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kruuth:

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kruuth:
Say malaysk, I'm running your rom, and it's great however, I'd really like it if the folders in the music ap were sorted alphabetically, and that fade between the songs was gone. Is there a way to fix that?

It's a service that is running in the status bar at the top of the screen, slide it down and you can access it from there.

Still waiting for his latest for RK3188 and 1024x600 so I'm running the early June version. To update Poweramp Toast I just downloaded it from the dev's site and installed it directly over the 1.46 that was already there. Quick and easy!

mcu update fails

I have a Joying rk3066 based unit, and saw there is update mcu_jy_259_patched - I extracted this to my gps card, rebooted to recovery, and chose update from sdcard or usb, and it fails to run any update, is there another way to run this, or is it required to also run a update.img with the mcu.img?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] skoobee:
No you can just update mcu. You don't reboot to recovery. Just do a reboot and it should see the update.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Initial testing of the module disables the single-click action (screen off), but it seems to be passing that press as a long-press, so the reboot menu still comes up. I'll probably have to replace the entire onTouchEvent method and deal with it there.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
I'll look forward to your results:good:

And you can ask one more question?

On the Russian forum asked me very strongly to return the icon of the moon - watch - skrinsever, it is also possible to add to xposed retracting - add this button?

As my Amp IC got killed, I am looking for an alternative. The board (KGL-Main-90D-V2) has a TDA7388 and I want to use a TDA7850. Is this okay? It seems to be pin-compatible. The reason I believe it got damaged is different impedances with the front aftermarket speakers compared to the stock OEM rear speakers.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] clearchris:
From a quick look at the "standart test and application circuit" it looks like they are very similar, but not the same. Vcc1-4 needs a 2200uf cap instead of 470uf. Pin 25 looks like it needs a resistor. Otherwise, assuming you don't need to increase the cooling you should be good to go.*

*I'd do it, but get a second opinion first. ;)

Just wanted to give Malaysk big props on his latest rom. The start up time seems quicker than his last (which seemed longer than the norm), and the move to the JY apps was the right move, the launcher and everything else is just so much smoother than the KLD stuff.

Hardware Error - troubleshooting

I believe I have a hardware issue - (KGL4 RK3066, 7inch VW Model with buttons)

Flashed the Early June Malay Rom with MCU (2.53 KGL4) update and which playing with the setting and application installation heard a pop through the speaker and lost sound completely. Resetting, re-flashing nothing working. But the radio (speaker) did work in between occassionally and then nothing. Nothing using music app - absolutely no sound at all.

So tried going back to the software combination I had before (MCU 2.03 KGL4) and the KLD firmware. No sound. I tried all combination of MCU's and original firmware from KGL and KLD - without any success - still no sound.

So put old OEM radio in to verify the speakers - it works like a charm with no issues.

At this time I am assuming something wrong with the HU. I have another month for warranty but at 75 bucks sending it back to China (AliExpress) and paying for return shipping too I am thinking about opening the unit and taking a look. What should I be looking for - any ideas, opinions, directions and/or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot guys!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
After installation MCU, you have all the reset setting. Go to Settings-Factory settings (password 126) and there reinstall your kanbas and type of radio and reboot. Everything will be fine. :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] george2350:
Thanks Malaysk - I did do that each time. Setting radio to Americas2 and CANBUS to 1 (VW Simple or something very similar) and rebooted multiple times.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
Model it is necessary to put the radio - for example TD7706，TD7786 or else, I do not know what you radio.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] :
I guess then you are maybe in the same boat than me, George. I had the same issue as you described. In my case the amp IC got too hot and is dead now. Got it desoldered and am waiting for the replacement (as posted a few post before this one). Erisin (my reseller) gave the permisson so I won't loose the warrenty ... but I guess this warrenty is worthless anyway ^^

My theory is that the amp IC couldn't handle the different speakers, as I have OEM in the rear and aftermarket in the front. But no clue about their impedances. Reptile-X reported the same issues, too.

There are a few folks around here who successfully changed the amp IC. For some had problems returned after replacing with the same IC, others changed to a different pin-compatible chip and are fine now.

As an alternative I am quite sure that your non-amplified audio outputs are still functional. (mine are) Go with an external amp in that case. I am too frightened to pull all the cords in my car, so I try to fix the amp IC first and will post my results...not before next week though.

You can download a root checker app from the Play Store that will tell you if you are rooted.

If you do need to root, read the first post on the first page and it will give you some options, easiest is to flash a pre-rooted image.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] eduarcor75:
If you are ready, you can just release it.

Do the new feature it in the next version, and then, all the flavours (RK3066/RK3188 and 800/1024) will contain the same and at least all of them will be consistent (all of them will have the same features and options).

Afterwards, for the next release, put that new feature in all of them. It is all about consistency, and is much easier to debug, just in case you have any trouble or bug, and you don't need to test it separated for every flavour.

It is just my humble opinion, and I will respect any other.
