What issues do you know of that the 1024x600 res units have with the quad core upgrade? I'm curious because I asked my seller to upgrade my unit before they shipped for an extra $20 and they didn't say anything about incompatibility but then again my unit also had problems with random shut downs. Just curious.

I have issues with radio and SWC. I am on malaysk rk3188 latest rom with mcu KGL4 2.53. Not able to change the radio presets with steering controls. Rather when i press next it jumps to the next band. Any idea how this can be fixed?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gguevara:
Hello guys,

From my previous post, my radio app had just stopped working (no reception or sound from the radio app).

I tried resetting and even opened the head unit to make sure nothing was loose. I had asked for some help on the forum, and in the mean time I also sent a message to the seller. This was about two weeks ago. Since then, the radio app just started working again. Like if nothing was ever wrong, and has been working since. Keep in mind that my unit is stock firmware/mcu. I have not done any modifications other than adding cooling fans. It is mind boggling to me. Also since then, the seller sent me the latest MCU.img. I have not updated it to my head unit yet. I looked in the file repository and the latest MCU I see for the KLD is v2.67. The version I was sent is MTCB-KLD2-V2.75 08/25/2015 (per the file name). If you would like, please let me know how to share it to the Gdrive repository. In this way I can share it if it is not already available, and contribute to the forum.

This is for a KLD universal model RK3188 / 800x480 resolution.

However, during this time my wifi started acting up. I see the wifi icon/bars and the unit says its connected, but I get no where when I try to browse or surf google play, youtube, etc. Any suggections??? My head unit MCU is still at MTCB-KLD2-V2.67 07/09/2015.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh yeah... is there any updated/modified version of the ipod app, with improved functionality. Just curious.

Thanks,

gg

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MasterPHO:
Thanks, I'm still fiddling around with mtc service see what's causing it suddenly stop after working so well. Just to be clear the auto speed adjust volume still works. So I assume the service is still working.

In regards to the reverse camera. I doubt that I wired it incorrectly as I used the Acc wire and grounded it to the GND wire to power the receiver. It powers on and displays the camera when android hasn't booted. But when I get to the homescreen and try reverse again I get "no signal".

I haven't ditched the wireless module in favour of the 6m RCA wire but as soon as I get the chance I'll run it. I'll update in case someone else has similar issues.

Btw dsa, are you running wireless or wired?

Thanks for the additional info. Hopefully issue with 1024x600 gets resolved soon. Regarding the touch screen, yes, I actually have not disconnected any ribbon / flex cables when I tried addressing the weak radio signal... I'd be all but thankful if it's just a loose cable somewhere as I feel it would be tons of effort to try and disassemble the LCD screen and replace.

Dab+

I'm using wavesink with a RTL2832U android stick for receiving the dab+ signal. Wavesink is not the best program to use in a car, but since it has a radio skin the feel and look is better. My question is; Is it possible to control third party apps like Wavesink with my steering-wheel controls? I want to switch between the radio stations. I like the original radio app from huifei but it has no dab. I found a dab app from huifei, i found it in the OEM map. Is it possible to make this app work with a RTL2832U usb stick? Or doe anybody know which device is working with this dab app?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ktibor69:
I unchecked Poweramp startup on your app.

Can you make a modding for your app, that your Poweramp resume feature only works after sleeping mode when before stop the car I was listening to Poweramp.

If I checked Poweramp startup and resume, the HU starts always with Poweramp and MTC radio in one time., when I was listening MTCRadio before full startup. This is not good for me.

Poweramp starts only pause mode

I set the shutdown delay to 10 minutes.

I'm playing music with Poweramp.

When I stopped the car and after I start before 10 minutes are running out the poweramp only starts with pause mode, not play mode. I have to push the play button.

How can I set the poweramp or System, that the poweramp starts play mode?

With total boot I haven't this issue.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] devilsoft:
Poweramp starts in play (resume) mode by default, unless you uncheck the option from my app.Sometimes has a play delay for some reason (i noticed myself), but it starts if you wait.

About starting the Radio and Poweramp in the same time, it's not from install-recovery.sh. The device tries to launch the previously active app (which in your case, I think it's MTCRadio), but I don't have a solution for this yet.

Maybe [MENTION=434511]agentdr8[/MENTION] can catch that in XposedMTC and stop the execution.

[MENTION=434511]agentdr8[/MENTION], i think it could be a great feature to have in XposedMTC if you can add.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Nicolasfoto:
Best unit? I know these types of questions are a No-No on the forum, but is there a unit or manufacturer one would recommend over others or one that shouldrather be avoided? I am looking at the quality of construction, how well the unit works out of the box or with a custom ROM added to it. I dont want to spend a fortune on a unit only to be told I should rather have gone for something else?

Oh OK. Yea the unit I had did not have those issues so that's good to know. For only $20 more you can't beat that, only added a couple more days to my ship time for the custom order.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
I've used a wireless backup cam on my previous car and it worked fine with these headunits. Just make sure you have the proper reverse cam +12V line connected.

I'll take a look. It may not be possible to fully reverse the mtc apps to a point where they can be recompiled, with or without any patches.

Yep, it's on my to-do list. I'll probably add a preference to either disable the last run app launching, in addition to being able to select an app to always be the last run.

XposedMTC has an option to override the stock source switching behavior. You have to set both the music and video player apps to something other than the stock MTC ones. Also, you may want to enable only the music source (radio is added by default), as there are some issues with adding other sources in.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kruuth:
Thanks...what about the brightness? I'm still having issues there.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Set your timezone in Settings -> Date&Time to your actual TZ. If you want it to update the auto-sunset times faster, set it to Manual and adjust the start time to sometime in the evening, and end time to something in the morning. Then change it back to auto and drive around for a few minutes. It will update the times after 5 minutes or 10 miles (once you've got a GPS lock) as long as it isn't currently between the end time and start time.

OR, since I know dsa will chime in here.... you can use his ultra-perfect and awesome auto dimmer script that's integrated into install-recovery.sh (and the PCV app) and not worry about any Xposed stuff (even though Xposed has its place, just like shell scripts have their place) :p

I ve just uploaded 4 Klyde updates (RK3066 SD, RK3066 HD, RK3188 SD and RK3188 HD) to the fileserver.

I havent tried any yet, I ve uncompressed them, 2 are dated 10th August, 2 I cant see any date, I ve uploaded them all as 10th August.

They sent a 1024x600/RK3188 update on an SD card as it consistently wouldnt download, but they also included the other 3, very nice of them !

I was trying to download it cos of the 1024x600/RK3188 problem that effects people who retro fit RK3188 SoMs to 1024x600/HD units. It was 3 or 4 months ago now, so I cant remember the people who the problem affected, [MENTION=6591884]eastberkshirecustoms[/MENTION] springs to mind, but I think he was just in on the convo and didnt have the problem, maybe he can remember ?

I ve also got another Klyde unit, cant remember the exact date of the firmware (pretty sure its July or August), but theres no "Conquer" splash screen, as I ve not tried the updates, cant say whether they have it or not, but maybe they dont ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] koimr:
You have a RoadMaster, don't you?

If so, what is the version/date of your MCU?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] RubbedLung:
I have the MCU 2.22 from January 2015 for the Roadmaster.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] koimr:
Ahh.

I could be completely wrong but for the other MCUs (JY, KGL, etc) that shutdown delay was not implemented until April or May of this year (MCU ver 2.4x and later).

It looks like you already have the latest RM MCU so you may be out of luck until that gets updated. You could try contacting your seller and requesting any available MCU updates.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
I'm just giving you a hard time ;) . I've looked over your algorithm and it's solid; had it existed prior to adding in what I did in XposedMTC, I would have never put any effort into it, as I see no point in duplicated efforts. I would rewrite mine, but it works well enough for my use, and I have too much on my plate to focus on it at the moment. Since there's now alternatives, there's even less of a priority. I have no problem recommending your method over mine since it's a better implementation.

You have to admit though... it would be fairly complicated, if not impossible to inject code into apps/memory via shell scripting ;) There's always a proper tool for a specific job at a particular point in time.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] RubbedLung:
Oh okay. Do you know of any tweaks or hacks that could supplement until the MCU is updated?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Useful info, but it may or may not apply to all units - KGL and KLD units do not have the SoM on the mainboard they have it behind the screen and are laid out rather differently inside, it may be that KGLs and KLDs lack that connector, or thats its in a different place.

Have you gone into factory settings and enabled "reverse camera" ?

Interesting, Pumpkin usually sell Klydes, I wonder if this is actually a new make or whether its a "Klyde Special for Pumpkin" or something.

Klyde have recently made DAB/DAB+ available, its a small external box made by Shinwa (who's customers include Blaupunkt, Foryou, Philips and Pure). I ve got one, I ll post pics and a brief review shortly. It does require mods to the board, apparently (they dont say which board), so a new board at least will probably be necessary.

There was no need, the DAB app has been included in the OEM folder in every firmware update since June.

The latest KLD2 MCU.

AFAIK you need Koumarai/Dark Leo's modded MCUs to enable the delayed shutdown feature.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] koimr:

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] webdude12:
After all the praise I have given this unit, I now have to say Buyer Beware.

Driving down the road and my screen goes black, I still have music, but I can not see anything. So I pull the unit out when I get home to check wiring, even though I know the screen doesnt have any separate wire externally. At the same time I decide to put my factory back in just so I can have music. While doing so a little white piece of plastic fell out of the HuiFei Radio.

So I continue to put my factory radio back in, come inside and contact Green Point on Aliexpress. They ask me to open the radio up, saying it wont void the warranty and send them pictures of the inside. I find that the white plastic piece goes to the clip that holds one of the ribbon cables that connects the main screen to the front panel.

Now here is the kicker. Their posting on Aliexpress says within the first 90 day they will replace with no charge. What do they want to do? They want to send me a new ribbon cable connector. Like I am suppose to be able to solder it on. So I contact Keylo, she said since I did not buy the unit from her, I can buy a new board for $35 and $30 shipping.

I then send the pictures to Keylo and she has the audacity to tell me to super glue the ribbon cable back in place. Really? Are you Serious??

This wouldnt work anyways. Because I can get the ribbon cable back in the connector where it makes connection, it just wont stay with any vibration of the unit, and then if I power up the unit with an external power supply, all I get is black screen and side lights. So apparently when this connector failed, it caused a short across the unit some where.

Im have already contacted American Express, they have sent me the warranty claim form that I have to fill out and send back. Once they have that, they will send me a call tag for shipping on the radio. Once they see the radio has been picked up they will refund my credit card charge. I knew there was a reason I used my business credit card for this. :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
S*** man, that really sucks and is not a good start. I hope it is just a one tiime thing, and it does not reproduce in more units. I hope you can really fix it somehow.
