Yep, thats what I said in the post with modified SystemUI.apk (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61304569&postcount=14191).

Being not able to remove presets its not a fault, but lack of functionality, which causes some discomfort for me (I'm used to have 7-8 saved stations and thumb through them by pressing only "next" button on the steering wheel). Don't know, may be I will try to modify the Radio app...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] weapons777:
Yep. That's the problem I'm having. Widget and icons cutoff the screen and smaller than normal.

Would it be possible to extract it from the newest firmware and upload it?

I have tried myself with no luck.

Thanks.

Hi all!

I begun using this great app after rooting my head unit.

The main function I'm interested in is the possibility to configure the list of apps for the mode switch.

But I'm having a problem with this. If configured this option so the only apps in the switch cycle are music player and nav. I'm using Poweramp as default music player and Igo is set as the main nav app. Poweramp is automatically started in background as it is configured in install-recovery.sh

The first time I press Mode button (in SWC), Igo is launched. I press Mode button again an Poweramp is brougth to front. I press Mode button once again and Igo is switched to front again. So far, so good.

The problem comes when I press Mode button a fourth time. It's suppoused that Poweramp should come forward again, but instead the head unit hangs and the boot logo apears. It stays in that state until I hard reset it.

Does anyone else have a experienced a similar problem? any workaround?

Thanx

I have upoaded your dualcore ROMs on the server

I will try to do the quadcore too.

today I will install your ROM for the first time coming from JY hoping there is nothing to miss from the stock ROM.

Love the Blue JY theam, would love them in 1024x600.

HI guys. I'm considering purchasing an EONON unit, either the G2110Z or the G2110ZV and it appears that other than the version of android these are the same. After poking around a little on here, it looks as though they're more or less the same unit but I was hoping someone that had them could answer a couple of questions...Can you upgrade the G2110Z to the G2110ZV? Can these run offline GPS software like iGO? The eonon site says you can screen mirror but I don't see how and I can't find a manual. If I have PDANet can I use that to get internet access to the unit from my phone? Can I swap the launcher for something a little more useful? Is it possible to auto-start the gps, radio, etc? Finally, if the launcher can't be swapped, can it be tweaked a little?

Happy B-Day Malaysk

Respect for your great work here...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MayfairDROID:
You are correct. Myibidder strikes again. It rarely fails me.

The price may have been slightly inflated, but didn't you pay $80.00 for yours? Considering after multiple conversations with Jacky the lowest I could get her was $110, and Typos1 is selling his at $122, I think $92 is a fair price. You were lucky to get it when you did. I doubt we will see those prices again, ever.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Bizarre isnt it.

I dont know, all the launchers worked on my 800x480 screen and all installed ok.

The reason the thread is so long is that 100s of people like you cant be a*sed to read the thread fully or use the search function, so therefore ask the same questions over and over and over again, making the thread longer and longer and filling it with mulitple repeats of the same questions. As you cant be a*sed, I ll tell you - ALL these units are either RK3066 or RK3188 tablets mounted in a single or double DIN case and intere-acting with an MCU for controlling basic car stereo stuff, like radio chips, DVD/CD players etc, they are all pretty much the same apart from the type of radio chips, minor MCU programming, the way the BT mic is wired and minor differences in the ROMS, but the ROMs are interchangeable anyway.

Wanting to remove radio presets is something specific to just you, I ve never heard of anyone wanting that before, it certainly wouldnt be considered to be a "lack of functionality" by most people :)

"Cut off the screen", "smaller than normal" ? Can you be more specific, as the other users seem to be saying the launcher is displaying in 1024x600 res on an 800x480 screen ie BIGGER than normal, you appear to be saying its displayed like the screen is too big for the launcher rather than the other way round, think it just may be the way you are describing it and its the same problem.

Firstly its NOT an Eonon, they are just sellers, think they sell Klydes mainly. secondly they are physically identical, the only differences are in the software, so buy the cheapest one.

Try to read the thread and familiarise yourself with the REAL model names, using re-seller's made up model names just confuses the issue and wont be much help if you need help with your device should you buy one.

They are Android so most Android stuff applies, like changing launchers and installing offline maps.

Hello everybody...

I have a RK3066 unit sold by Pumkin fitted in my van and have been faffing around with it for a few weeks now.

The van is quite noisy when going along and I can't seem to get a good setup going with the speed dependent volume control (SDVC/GALA) it does work but either raises the volume really loud and then goes really quiet or nothing. Im not really sure where to set it up correctly has anyone else had to deal with this? Cheers

Hello

I just swapped a rk3066 to a rk3188 on a KD-V2.54.

The rk3188 was preloaded for a res of 800x480, my unit has 1024x600 res...

So I just downloaded an update.img from a Joy unit with the right res.

The update went smoothly.

The boot time is now 25.10 sec. Previously, the boot time was 33.05 sec.

Everything seems operational...

Sorry i meant going back to the MCU which was on the unit when i purchased it.

Do you know if changing the mcu will help me with this wifi issue?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Well, at least the KLD widgets are integrated into the launcher, and can't be separated easily. The KGL widgets at least are separate apks, so they might work on alternate launchers.

Hmm, quite odd that Settings isn't automatically going to 2-panel when it's at a higher dpi, or set to tablet mode. Maybe Malaysk can modify the layout/manifest for a future release.

Sorry, I should update that post. It's a known issue with XMTC and mode switching. I have yet to rewrite that entire method, but it's on my to-do list once I get some free time. It used to work semi-well back in 4.2.2 roms, but that was before I started adding stuff to it which broke it.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] KilrPilr:
Not an idiot question! lol All i can say is try it. If you hook up the rca splitter and are sitting in "park or neutral" and you open the avin app and your camera comes on then you are all good. If it doesnt, then you will need a 12v constant.

On the other hand if you hook up a 12v constant and your HU thinks you are always in reverse then you will have to get a bit more creative with your wiring.

My truck seems to have a rear camera trigger hooked up via the canbus adapter or something because all i did was hook up the camera to both rca's and wired the camera power to the main " 12v power in" wire on the HU and it works via AVIN and also comes on when i put it in reverse. If your reverse trigger has to be via the "12v in" then you may need some diodes in your wiring to have both a constant 12v for AVIN and a reverse gear 12v for when you put it in reverse. Not impossible but requires some additional parts you may not have or know how to use.

I would start with the rca splitter and 12v constant to the camera but not to the " + reverse in" line and see if it works. if it doesnt , then you will need to put in a diode between your 12v constant and 12v reverse line so that the 12v constant doesnt feed into the 12v reverse in line , i believe. I could be wrong but I myself would try it. Anyone want to confirm or deny?

Installed [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] new ROM on

JY Dual core HD

Biggest issue I have is the Speed dependent Audio! sooo annoying while driving in the city around 25MPH

instead of gradually changing the Volume it jumps up and down at the 25mph a huge jump so I want it disabled till this becomes a very gradual level change with speed.

1) -> How Do I disable volume change based on speed in Malaysk Rom?

2) The Annoying power button on top seams useless to me (top Right) if I accidentally touch it the unit turns black and no way to bring it back, I Do have Hardware buttons.

3) How can I get the power Menu for restart vs. Recovery?

4) easy conneceted app work (not well) same as stock ROM and still the same original version that was around, Malaysk ROM does not have the easyconnected app in the OEM folder.

5) dont you thin the JY radio look nicer with the blue color?

Thank you Malaysk for the great ROM!

Malaysk can you change the behavior of the power button so if it is touched it does nothing unless it is held down for 3 seconds?

as is touching the power button turns off the screen and no way to turn it on again even with hardware button.

*the problem is happening again after installing basic applications like YouTube, maybe I'll try to revert back
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] 1-2-Hak:
You could extract the recovery.img out of the update and reflash it via adb. Then putting the update.img and mcu.img onto the gps sd card should prompt to do the install.

I went back to 1.77 because the WiFi is not stable and the signal disappears after a couple of minutes of usage, maybe there was an issue in the update because I noticed the boot logo and key mappings were not changed after the update, and I noticed an error in update where it writes "MCU config failed", can someone help me update the firmware properly without having the WiFi issue?

For my unit (KGL-746) the procedure to enter recovey mode is:

1. Turn off the unit by holding 3-4 sec the power button.

2. Hold the RESET button + POWER button for 5 sec

3. Release the RESET button and keep pressing the POWER butoon for 2 sec

4. Release the POWER button and wait. The Recovery menu appears.

5. With the Volume knob you can move up/down and long press on Volume/Power button to select the option.

Is there any way to prevent killing services or at least restart them when screen is turned on?

I use Tasker to perform some actions automatically. And every time when I turn the screen off - Tasker is being killed by the Android system. After that if I turn the screen on, Tasker will not start automatically. I'd like to fix it.

Rooting a 4.4.4

MCU version

MTCB-JY-V2.44

Android version

4.4.4_25032015

In an attempt to get my OBD connected, I learned that I need to roll back my XposedMTC (which I seem to not have in the first place). I want to play it safe and backup everything prior to making changes, but Nandroid *Root claims my unit is not rooted (and must be rooted to save anything). Whether or not that is the case, I want to try rooting my system if I can, but I'm really having trouble wrapping my head around the steps. Every time I think I have step 1 (hell, step 0) figured out, something unexpected happens.

Please verify and/or correct.

1) I have a Joying system.

2) I can get the following MCU (JY v2.59_patched_by_darkleo)

3) I can get the following Firmware (800X480 with regular launcher https://yadi.sk/d/Roh7ltxMh8KiR)

Actually doing it;

1) Backup internal SD (By just going into the system and moving files from internal SD to a removable card?)

2) Put the MCU on my GPS SD card (possibly in a specific spot)

3) Put the Firmware on the card as well

4) Boot up the system.

Am I correct that I have no way to root right now (or is this rooting?)

Am I correct that I cannot create a backup prior to doing any of this?

Thank you so much for your patience.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MayfairDROID:
Actually doing it:

1: You are correct, you can not back your factory images until you have root, which you wont have until you flash a new rom, which means you can not back up the factory images :)

2Unless you have a feature or issue, there is no need to update the MCU, again, unless you just want to. the MCU.img must be on the root of the SDCard

3. You can use any rom listed on the first page, or anywhere in this thread. They are all pre-rooted. You can not root your own system if you have android 4.4.4 (you can, but its a lot of work for no gain, as it has already been done)

This must also be on the root of your SD Card.

4. place SD card in the GPS slot.

5. Boot into recovery and update, when complete, and the unit has rebooted, go to settings, privacy and restore to default/wipe settings.

Done :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MYKK:
Just to follow up, what is the "root" of the SD card? I'd it a particular folder, or specifically NOT in a folder?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MayfairDROID:
Root is the highest level in a directory structure. This means that the file would need to sit on the SD card not in any file folders.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Its worth trying, last year some people only had good wifi with MCU 1.77, if it doesnt sort it, you could try that one as well.

Yeah, pretty certain I ve used the KGL widgets with other launchers

I m not on Malaysk's ROM, I installed Xposed and use the DPI module, unless Malaysk writes that ? I didnt see a tablet mode, I just changed the DPI to higher and the resolution to 1024x600 as neither worked I kept playing around with much higher settings, but nothing made any difference.

Maybe I should clear cache or data - that worked for some one earlier when they were changing launchers.

Sorry, was a typo on my part, I meant KD, not heard of them, just KLD and KYD.

No problems swapping to RK3188 unless you have a Klyde with 1024x600 resolution screen.

---------- Post added at 09:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

I dont think hes gonna do that, the whole point is you press once to turn the screen off and press and hold for reboot options. It usually works on all units apart from the full touch ones.

Read the first page - for root you need to install a pre-rooted ROM. This has been the case since KK came in November. Someone did claim yesterday or the day before that they had managed to root 4.4.4 with an app, you could find that post and try what he did. But you dont really need backup as all the images on on the fileserver.

Its best to update to the latest version and only downgrade if you have problems - the MCUs are continually improved.

He CANNOT use any ROM on the first page, he can use any ROM that is for his processor type and screen resolution.

If hes updating using the GPS SD card method he does not boot into recovery, the unit will auto detect he update and boot into recovery itself once "OK" has been pressed. Its also possible to update via USB or the non GPS slot if you go into recovery manually.

You only need restore/wipe settings on Malaysk's ROMs.
