Yes, you drive backwards :laugh:

Seriously now: it depends on how you wired it.

You would have to power the camera through a switch which you can turn on/off whenever you want and wire the camera to the auxiliary video input at the unit.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] johnsonsteven1986:
Try using a dual throw switch. Center lead to camera, one lead to reverse, and one to power. That way with the switch in one position it will work like normal and when you flip it to the other position it will turn on without being in reverse.

typos1 hello I have a question ... I can install another ROM? Is there one that has red system color?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
You have already asked about a "red" ROM, there are none, well KLDs latest has some red accents in some of the built in apps, but theres nothing like Malaysk's green ROM but with red instead.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] giornistrani:
Sorry but I have great difficulty understanding English. Excuse me typos1 you send the link to download the red rom? I would not use a ROM Malayksa because TomTom and use the first page it says that TomTom does not go. Thanks and sorry again
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
You asked if there was a red ROM 12 hours ago, I said no, then 12 hours later you ask again, this suggests that you are forgetful as you understood the first time when I said there werent any ! :)

The links to the ROMs are on the first page
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] giornistrani:
ahahahaha typos1 maybe you're right, I'm a bit forgetful:) maybe I explained badly. I understand that there is no ROM completely red but you told me that there is a ROM that has some red accent, you can tell me what is?

Is there ever a chance to be able to modify the sleep time, and increase it from 30 sec to something like 5-10 minutes?

I believe it is MTC-related so I'm asking this in regards to XposedMTC, but if it may be possible in the future by some other way (custom rom?) that's fine too :)

Or is this sleep timer is completely hardware-controlled and will never be able to changed by software? :(

control heated seats - BMW e90

Hey guys,

I have an eonon ga5165 ( which apparently is a Klyde unit) in my 2007 e90 BMW. It came with android 4.2.2 and I managed to upgrade it to KLD 4.4.4 following instructions on the first page of this thread. The steering wheel controls work well but I am wondering if anyone with a similar setup was able to get the Car service app to control the heated seats and climate control settings. When I open the car service app I see various options but the buttons don't do anything. Is the can bus decoder that came with my unit not capable of doing operations such as climate control?

I played with the factory settings and set can bus to BMW union (the was the only BMW option) and also tried a few others but no avail .

Can anyone shed some light on what I have to do to get it working?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
AFAIK, the shutdown timer is controlled by the MCU, and can't be changed via java.

Steering wheel "mode" button

Hi,

Using Klyde with 4.4 root os.

Is there a way to define which modes the steering wheel "mode" button will control? I want it to rotate between radio, music and bluetooth only (disabling dvd, video).

Can it be defined?

Thanks.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] manicuspanicus:
Use xposed framework with agentdr8's module, XposedMTC .
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gmanor77:
Thanks for the replay. Maybe you can explain how do I install xposed framework and the module? Where can I find the files? (tried to find in this thread with no success).

Thank you.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] manicuspanicus:
If you are rooted ( you said you are using a rooted rom) then install xposed framework (pick a stable version) then install xposed MTC. Follow instructions and you are going to find the module in your apps. There you can set which player you want as default and of course which sources you want to show up when you press the menu button.

I just saw this video review:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxbBZ8KY10k&hd=1

(Published on Mar 27, 2014 - not a very new device)

At second 0:28 he starts the car - and the music starts INSTANTLY.

How is that possible? I though that the 25-30 seconds of salience while booting is a hard fact for pure android devices...

Note that this is a complete cold boot (you can also see that it takes ~30 seconds), not waking up from sleep.

Maybe it's only possible with the Radio (and not music/dvd etc') because the radio is control by the MCU?

But AFAIK this boot time delay was "suppose" to be a problem with the radio as well....

He said he got it from here, and I don't see anything special about this device.. looks like a standard RK3066 device.

Can anyone confirm that the radio (or any other music?) starts instantly when starting up the car, before android finish loading?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Is your MCU version the latest ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] clearchris:
That's an interesting hack, but yes, I can't imagine that working for anything other than radio, cd / dvd or backup camera. Actually, it would be really nice if the backup camera could be available before boot.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Enc0der:
I actually saw another video yesterday of a device that indeed showed the backup camera before android loaded, just after starting the car.

But playing music (even just radio) is something I never thought possible... Anyone here can confirm/deny that it's working for him as well? It doesn't look like he hacked anything, this is probably the original MCU/ROM/software..

Just below the title, the guy lists the unit he is talking about and the forum for it on XDA WITH A LINK !! That unit is an AN21-U, TOTALLY unrelated to these units, the link takes you to the AN21-U thread !!

There is NO mention of Rockchip ANYWHERE, the specs CLEARLY states its Android 4.1 (the units on this thread are at least 4.2), it CLEARLY states his unit has an MSTAR 1.2 GHz processor, you are totally in the wrong thread and I cant understand how you could make such a mistake when a link to the actual thread is just under the video you are posting about AND he clearly writes the name of the unit he is referring to AND the specs !!!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Enc0der:
Oh.

Jesus, chill out.

You are right about the link to the XDA Thread. HOWEVER there was also a direct link to the

EBAY ITEM THAT HE BOUGHT

that CLEARLY says Rockchip 3066.

Chill the **** out. WTF is wrong with you and your disgusting attitude?

That's probably my mistake for not clicking "show more", but you should really get some Prozac or something.

Anyway, thanks for clearing out that it's not the same chip and therefore not possible. That's too bad.

Lol, Prozac is for depression, not stress.

Not that I m stressed, more amused that youd totally ignored the name of the device, its specs AND the link to its thread (THREE things that say its not one of these units !!). Nowt "disgusting" about my attitude - a few exclamation marks, some capital letters and dumbfoundedness that youd ignored the links to the actual device, basically pointing out the obvious, do not equal a "disgusting attitude".

When I opened the link it was already on "show more", so I guess I can see how you made that mistake now, although personally I always click on "show more" maybe that was why it was open already.

Anyway, the radio on these units normally plays within 30 secs, so whats the problem that ?

---------- Post added at 01:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:35 PM ----------

That app is on all units, but it is only activated on some CAN Bus settings, does it appear in your apps when you are on the right setting for your car or have you installed it yourself ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] giornistrani:
I installed the application by downloading it from the first page
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] shadowfoxmi:
Yeah, I have the latest MCU (v 2.40, I believe).
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Joaco:
Try downloading the latest google playstore apk. (Latest is 5.3.6 at this moment). I had the same problem with the store and I fix it that way.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Right, its already on your unit (I think coudu and /or Malaysk removed it from their ROMs at some point, but pretty sure they put it back on later versions, what ROM are you on now?), it only appears on certain CAN Bus settings, for cars that have full CAN Bus support and there are also similar apps that appear depending on settings - there is a BMW one for instance for BMW CAN Bus settings .

If it does not appear when you set CAN Bus settings to the correct setting for your vehicle, it may not work properly. Does it work properly ? What info can you see ?

Did you try re connecting your original head unit and changing the language with that ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] clearchris:
Actually, I just did some testing, and i think my unit will show the backup camera before boot. I have reverse hooked up, but not the camera yet, the screen blanks when i put it in reverse before boot. I have an eonon g2110z. Kld with mcu 2.40
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Yes thats the latest or one of the latest.

I guess thats not supported if you cant get it to work.

There has been some debate over what the CAN Bus box does, but I think it simply extracts analogue signals from the CAN Bus system, it doesnt actually do the comms with the CAN Bus, the head unit does that.

Personally I ve never understood the latest trend for car manufacturers to replicate HVAC and heated seat controls on head units - whats the point when the actual controls are just underneath it ? Although I realise my opinion on it is no help if you want that it to work on your head unit.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] giornistrani:
No, I have not tried it yet. Do you think this is the only solution?

I have a reverse camera on my Hyundai Tucson, no canbus, wired with the reversecam wire on my KGL7620 unit. I also have picture right after ignition and before boot up.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
It works the same for CAN Bus cars as it does or non CAN Bus cars, the only difference is that the CAN Bus adapter extracts an analogue signal from the CAN Bus system (one does not exist an CAN Bus cars) which you then connect to the same wires as you would as in a non CAN Bus car. Maybe the adapter takes time to extract that signal ?

---------- Post added at 03:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 PM ----------

Very possibly, but it is quite easy you only have to reconnect it briefly, this is assuming that you can change the language of your car on your original head unit.

i think it should work, another user on another forum did it on an Opel Astra J and the language set was ok.

Do you think there is a way to control can bus with android (special apk) ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
I only suggested you put it back briefly, you dont have to fully disconnect the Android unit, just take it out and reconnect the OEM unit, change the language, then put the Android unit back, although obviously youd have to find another solution if the Android unit changed the language again, maybe email your seller or the factory who made it ?

You could see if theres something for it in Torque.

Getting the radio to play right after ignition would, IMO, make the lag of the boot pass way quicker and provide a much better user experience. Maybe we'll get it one day from a MCU update, if not would be amazing if a custom rom could do it.

Does anyone have any free tasker like apps that can cut the radio sound when spotify is launched. I tried one that let me kill the radio app when spotify launched but when it actually ran the action, nothing happened.

Some (most...) devices that I see are car-specific, for example VW specific devices with dual canbus that displays AC info on screen, as well as door-open info etc'.

Does it come from the MCU somehow, or Android?

I'm asking because I wonder if it will change between ROMs ..... I saw some devices with large AC info that takes up 90% of the screen, and other devices with a small bottom "task bar" with the same info but in a much smaller display...

Does it controlled from the MCU (and therefore will not change if I'll install a different rom) or android?

If I buy a JY device FOR VW, and then install the "generic" Coudu's 4.4.4 ROM from this thread - do I still have all my VW-specific features? will the graphic design change between the roms?
