It is possible to change mtcmovie3 to play in the background as the mtcradio3?

My MtcBackview (rear camera) has blue icons, can you arrange version with icons Red Yellow Green?

Hi All,

Do anyone know where I can get the boot and system images for the Klyde RK3066 (800x480) Model S07 headunit? I'm having an issue with wifi not turning on. I was able to get a logcat of the processes running and come to find out that the wifi driver fails to load for my unit. I did some digging and the issue could be related to the boot and system images not being compatible. The wifi board is a Realtek RTL8188CTV. I already tried replacing the wifi antenna. Thanks so much for any help with this.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MayfairDROID:
First page. There is a list of all the ROM's and MCU images. MCU's are manufacture specific, so you if you have a Klyde, you will want the KLD MCU images. Make sure if you have a KLD1 or KLD2 image currently, you stick with them. You can not, as of yet, mix and match. Roms are compatible with all manufactures, so pick what you like and roll. The only main difference is the launchers.

Good luck!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Precision340:
Thanks MayfairDROID. I've tried most of the MCUs and Android firmware (update.img) for Klyde and that did not fix the wifi. I'm running Malaysk's latest ROM, which btw, is freaking awesome! Thanks for all your hard work, Malaysk!!

Maybe someone can tell me what the difference is between ROMs and firmware? Is the boot image imbedded in the MCU? Does anyone have the Klyde Model S07? Let me know which combination of MCU and firmware you are using?

Thanks!

Hi guys!

I have just installed the [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] firmware (MCU: JU, stereo looks like this: http://www.carjoying.com/quad-core-...ory-high-vision-1024-600-support-airplay.html)

Everything works fine except the software power button (in the top-right corner). If I press it my stereo powers off the screen and there in no other way to enable it except turn the power cord off and on again. In other words, if I press it, the original (hardware) power button won't turn on the radio anymore.

Any suggestions how to fix this (or disable the software button)?

Thanks!!!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
On the need to press the power button (in the top-right corner) and hold for 3-4 seconds. Restart menu appears. When the radio briefly, do not push the button. Radio separately from Android-part

Thank you! But, unfortunately, I keep pressing it by accident, instead of "back" button. Is there any way to disable software button completely or change its action to a default power off? As far as I know, I have to modify SystemUI.apk to do this, right?

Malaysk it is time to get you your own thread with all this awesome stuff and info

now that we have a subforum lets start it and reserve the first 4 post for your updates of quad and dual core

also why not upload you ROMs on http://huifei.fs-fileserver.de/ ? the server you chose litterally takes 15 hours to download from even with an account with them.

- Is there any MTC radio/mtcmusic/mtcbluetoth Widgets in the Next luncher version of your ROM?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pk313:
This evening ...for curiosity I decide to try all launcher uploaded in file server (last malaysk rom standard launcher on my system ) and at first update and restart I discovered that all launchers are not for 800x480 so are small on my KLD!!

Somebody can post launcher2mtc2 resized for 800x480?

And....may be not...but someone try to extract the mtcmusic widget from that launcher?

I'm testing novalauncher... seems good and easy on that system. ..but so I don't have any widget for mtcmusic and mtcradio (this I have save from previous rom)

Many thanks

In English:

"hello I would like to upgrade my MCU. It's kgl1 to ver.2.53 from ver.2.47.

I can use kgl or kgl4? In the first post, it states kgl1 is for bmw and mine is not.

Can someone enlighten me which mcu (kgl, kgl1, kgl2, kgl3, kgl4 or kgl5) is for each model?

My car is a Seat Ibiza 6J fr.

Thank you."

As far as i know, you can only upgrade your MCU with KGL1. I know the OP states KGL1 is for BMW, but it seems to be working in your Seat. You can try upgrading with other KGL MCUs at the risk of maybe bricking your unit.

With my old unit, i tried different KGL MCUs, and i didn't brick it. I found older MCUs did a better job than newer ones, but everybody's experience may be different depending on what you're trying to achieve or fix.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kaween:
Rk3188 1024x600 = 0,59A @ 12.6V (my own measurements)

It will not kill a healthy car battery overnight, at least not mine (75Ah), but a less-then-optimal battery and a long weekend = no juice to start, I'm sure.

[MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] : Happy birthday man ! Congrats, joy and good health to you and your loved ones.

On a side note : I'm now trying fo 3 days to download the RK3188 1024x600 june 8 image but it's hopeless : data comes in at 8K/sec, download takes 13 hours, and is disconnected well before half of the data is downloaded. :( Guess I'll have to keep trying.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] doctorman:
Thank you very much!

I think 2-3 hours is safe and practical for most

8-10 hours would be most helpful for over night but will be harsh on an old battery in cold weather. I am not willing to risk this one as I know the battery will eventually go down hill and it is not worth it.

So we have to nag to the Chinese engineers to lower the consumption during the sleep.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Malaysk:
Thank you! :)

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kaween:
Yeah, I agree as I was slightly dumbfounded when I measured those values. It's like the complete MCU board inclusive soundamp simply stays full-active, draining the battery at the rate of knots.

As said earlier, I personally don't risk a fatal battery drain of my main battery as I run my stereos of a dedicated pico-ups controlled battery circuit which prevents draining the car's main battery when the engine isn't running, but from a designers' point of view the sleep mode is very, very messy in its current implementation. It will depend on the hardware design of the main board if this is fixable or not.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] :
Got my unit KGL RK 3066 1024x600. For now happy on a first look.

As I have a DAB Stick running (rtl2832 based) I was thinking if there is an integrated app that combines the fm radio from the HU with DAB stations from the stick. Also background station search for fm could be achieved with the rtl2832. An consistent UI across the main features is what I am striving for.

Second question: Any recommendations for a DVR camera? It should be mounted to the rear view mirror so that it's not visible from the driver seat. Didn't get my old Microsoft usb webcam to work as a first test. So I am looking for a good hd usb cam.

If I listen carefully the scrolling on the screen can be hard as a very subtle static sound in the speakers. Anyone experiencing the same? I suppose nothing we can do about it as it's an issue of the routing on the pcb from my experience I have with a 5 year old pc mainboard which has the same to an even bigger extend.

Guys!

For those, who have the problem with software power button in [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] firmware, I have modded the SystemUI.apk and removed this button.

The problem is when you press the software power button, stereo will go to sleep and there will no other way to turn it on again except reboot.

New SystemUI.apk was made for 1024x600 RK3188 [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] software and I have no idea what will happen if you use anywhere else.

Use it at your own risk!

Installation:

1. Back up everything!

2. Back up everything again.

3. Using your favourite root file manager copy the SystemUI_new.apk into /System/priv-app folder.

4. Rename SystemUI.apk into SystemUI_bak.apk

5. Rename SystemUI_new.apk into SystemUI.apk

6. Reboot the device

Its a version with the Next launcher app installed as a system app.

ALL MCUs are "stock", with the exception of the 2 recent MCUs by DarkLeo with audio improvements.

The KGL widgets are on the fileserver (the KLD and JY/KYD widgets are not actually widgets, theyre built into the launcher so cannot be uploaded).

That is strange, I uploaded those launchers, as I understand it the launchers are the same for both screen resolutions - the apk gets the screen info from build.prop and displays things according to that.

But even if Im wrong and there are separate 800x480 and 1024x600 versions, I have an 800x480 screen, so I d expect all the launchers I uploaded to be 800x480, whats even stranger is that there are no screen sizes smaller than 800x480, so cant understand how they are too small on your 800x480 device. I also tried them and they work normally on my 800x480 screen.

Yeah !

Lol !!

KLD told me they finally uploaded the software for RK3188/high res screen, but it turned out that it was the version thats been uploaded since 28.05 which does not sort it. I gave a mention to eastberkshirecustoms about DSA's hybrid 1024x600 versions, but got no response, cant remember the names of the others with RK3188/high res.

Yes, happy birthday Malaysk !! :)

I m sick of saying this, but MCUs are the SAME for ALL processors !!!!!!

In a word, no. You could try SDR with an RTL TV stick, it gets FM and DAB.

A "DAB" app has appeared ion the OEM folder recently, Klyde say it works with a DAB tuner, I m waiting for more info. You could also get digital radio through the digital TV app if you have a TV tuner.

What unit do you have ? I thought this was ONLY a problem if you have a full touch unit with no hard buttons.

Really ? I m sure I ve used them with other launchers in the past, it was months ago, I guess I could be wrong.

I changed DPI and resolution of the setting APK with Xposed/DPI settings and nothing happens, it makes not even the slightest difference to the settings app, all changes are ignored. :(

Yesterday I was able to put the unit back together with the new amplifier IC. Also installed powered USB HUB and a WIFI antenna.

Like I said before I had huge problems to download 350mb from TomTom servers, WIFI had a lot drop outs and same on GPRS too, I was busy trying almost 6 hours last time when I got the maps for the first time.

With the new WIFI connector and antenna the download was done in less than 2 minutes, so the WFI antenna works, I am not sure if the powered USB HUB helps in this issue, because people reported back with too much current drawers and WIFI being on same board.

Anyways I have seen speeds up to 4Mb/s, I am on a 200Mb/s line so there was no restriction on my internet provider side but this speed is really nice from the driveway to my house.

I am going to download 6GB maps soon, can’t do it now since I got problems with the amplifier IC again..

Kaween, I am going to follow you with the external amplifier, I did speaker updates on all channels on my car with 16.5cm 50watt Pioneer’s, and this internal amplifier issue started after that, yesterday I put the unit together and the unit did good for 10 minutes and all 4 channels went berserk again, the sound output went really low with a lot crackles, so I ordered a 4 channel external amplifier and hoping to solve the issue. Measured the speaker lines from the unit side and all 4 are around 3.8ohms so I am not sure why this IC keeps getting busted, maybe internals are not powerful enough to provide enough juice to the amplifier IC and that makes it go hot.

Problems that I've found:

Software power button hangs the unit - fixed by patching the SystemUI.apk

If I try to sync the phone book via bluetooth with my LG G2, bluetooth connection interrupts and sync fails every time. Looks like this is a problem with LG, not the stereo, but I appreciate any advice how to fix this.

There exist 16 slots to store radio channels. I don't need so many. Looking for the way to delete unused slots.

Have you tried reading the thread ?

The software power button issue is ONLY a problem with one of the extra features that Malaysk has added in his full custom ROM, it DOES NOT affect the unit with the factory ROM.

You cannot remove the boxes for the radio presets unless you modify the app, this is NOT a fault, why would you want to to delete them anyway, just do not use them.

Yes I have tried to read the thread and I am still reading it. As you can see for yourself it has more than 1400 pages of posts and it is a very cumbersome task.

I thought that I could short wire the reading by asking users who actually have this unit to share their thoughts and impressions. It will make my choice easy.

Your answers didn't help at all. You could have just as well ignore my question.
