It's not too hard, use a file explorer (I use root explorer) but anything that can get root access should work. Go to system/lib and look for lib_v4a-jb.xx.xx.so or something similar to that, delete it and reboot your device. When you open v4a it should tell you that you need a driver installing it that way won't work though. Download the latest V4a apk and extract it. Inside is a folder called assets you should see lib_v4a-jb.xx.xx the one that has "HQ" in it is the one you want. Copy it to system/lib and give it permissions 0664 I belive or whatever the other one had. Reboot and you should be set.

Hopefully this made sense I typed it on my phone before leaving for work so if you need any help let me know.

Thanks,

To.my understanding radio is not tunneled through the android mixer or whatever you want to call it. That's how the mcu is.

No, radio, aux in, and bluetooth phone/music do not pass through Android and are not affected by Viper.

Yes, but they also removed the AMP in the head unit to do so. http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Newsmy_CarPad_NU3001#Convert_Speaker_Outputs_to_Low-Level_Outputs

If your amplifier supports high-level inputs you can connect the speakers to that. DO NOT connect the speaker outputs to the low-level inputs on an amplifier, you will not like the results.
[Android Head-Units] usafle:
That's because you haven't disabled PowerAmp's Direct Volume Control. You have too many "sound effects" competing against one another.

When I was trying to get the google play music to allow using the SD I tried all of this and the options just never showed up. There is one change I still need to commit to make the external storage on SD show up in some apps (in my case it was for Plex and a few others), but it still never affected google play music at all.
[Android Head-Units] gohigher123:
I'm not sure but i think i disabled poweramp's direct volume control and i still had the same problems. But i'll try it again.

Thanks already.

I just have an other question. On my original radio i had an option called loudness. With that turned on , the music was playing very good. I just want to now what setting (from v4a) will get the closest to the loundness option. On my original radio the bass and the treble were set on zero. And it sounded like there was a woofer installed :). Hope i can get the same out of this radio.

if some one can read chinese could help us translate we can know what it as..... looks a better audio chip and a 32gb flash, and some vertions witha 10 inchs units... all the rest seems the same, maybe the some rom will work on all units? 3 ans 2s?

[Android Head-Units] DiGi91:
I have the occasional skip or pop but overall it seems much better and the system seems to lag a lot less which is good. Especially when using the steering wheel controls to change songs quickly. Or volume.
[Android Head-Units] mmajoor:
Using the external SD card as primary storage

The internal storage of the unit is somewhat limited (less than 4GB available).

Some apps don't allow the choice of selecting were to install their data, and then this internal storage limit can become an issue.

It would be nice if the external SD card could be used as if it was this internal storage.

I have seen some posts that address this issue. There are some apps that can do some redirection/remounting of the sort. I tried some, but none was satisfactory.

One of the options that don't need any tweaking, is by having the image itself doing this redirection/remounting. With the complete sources and a description available to create such an image (just have a look at the superb resources at the NU3001 Github) 'everyone' should be able to do just that.

It is basically two files we need to modify. Changing the 'internal_sd' references at some places into 'external_sd' is all we do.

Edit the following files and change 'internal_sd' into 'external_sd':

./device/rockchip/rksdk/init.rk30board.rc

on property:ro.factory.hasUMS=true

symlink /mnt/external_sd /sdcard

symlink /mnt/external_sd /mnt/sdcard

symlink /mnt/external_sd /storage/sdcard0

mount rootfs rootfs / ro remount

stop sdcard

./device/rockchip/rksdk/init.rk30board.hasUMS.true.rc

on init

export EXTERNAL_STORAGE /mnt/external_sd

export EXTERNAL_STORAGE_FLASH /mnt/external_sd

export EMULATED_STORAGE_SOURCE /mnt/external_sd

If you like a step by step description on how to create such an image, or like to download a ready made image were these changes have been made, then have a look on my home page.

Since the forum rules, for users with not that much posts, don't allow outside links, I can not give you the direct link unfortunately. But, you can look at my profile information (not sure if my home page shows up there though), or use a search machine using the following words in your search:

So, looked more around aliexspress and found a cheap rca audio splitter!

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/RCA-...Wholesale-retail-Free-shipping/494327867.html

Looks like it will do the job of amplifying and splitting the signal. It won´t allow you to adjust anything, but most people who uses external amps would most likely have them preset??

Also, I´m woking on a volume/subwoofer volume control. It´s going to be based around an Arduino nano and the DS1807 dual log digital potentiometer, as well as a rotary encoder. My goal is to make it so that when you turn it, the Arduino will send a signal to the swc on the HU to control the volume. When the rotary encoder is pushed, a RGB led will light up, and show a colour (green-red) and you can then turn it to adjust the digital pot, which will change the gain to your sub, and alter the RGB colour.

I don´t know how long it will take to build, but is this something anyone would like to know more about?? I´ll be happy to share my result! Just can´t promise when i´ll be done. I´m very limited when it comes to coding, but I´m going to give it a try. :D

....ps, if anyone out there would be willing, you could use the PT2322 ic for audio control! Would be possible to make an interface for a rotary encoder and a simple push interface to control volume, fader, bass, etc. This chip also got an Arduino library, so you could even make an app, and control the Arduino/chip from the HU itself! Lot of work tho, but a great weekend project!

No, the default standby option is "instant off" then it will switch off the android box each time the car is power off, if you want to set a standby time, get BonovoMCU apk from XDAUTO and replace it in a stock rom with factory tool (for exemple stock rom 1.1.9 or 1.2.0), it works perfectly for me on my VW Tiguan.
[Android Head-Units] ChrisK-WA:
This seems to be in pretty high demand. Any chance we can get someone to extract it and then have Zaphod host it on the XDAUTO Roms website?
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
Doesn't (un)zip functionality exist just about on every OS nowadays? Unzip the latest release and use that. If we put it up there separate then I'm sure people will expect us to support it in every environment. The standby function will work by copying the file over but the delayed airplane mode functionality won't work by just copying that one apk over.

I'm actually amazed that Newsmy released a version that force closes when you open the app. I just received a unit today that when testing with the 1.2.2 (I believe) factory installed ROM it would do this.
[Android Head-Units] isthisadagger:
Were you able to set up a google account on that unit? Got mine with 1.2.2 and V43 and had the app force closing and google unable to connect.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I didn't go further than that, I was just doing some quick tests on a unit to send out and noticed the issue and downgraded the ROM to a known working version. On my personal unit I run a build of xdAuto and I occasionally install factory ROMs on my development unit to see what has changed but generally that has a build of xdAuto on it as well.

Great topic. I am going to order one myself, but I just don't know which unit to order.

Problem with Radio starting automatically but prev-next buttons don't work.

Hello,

I am using xdAuto 1.1.6c2.

Once the HU boots, the radio starts automatically (This is because it was shut down while the radio was playing). When I press the next media or prev media buttons on the steering wheel, apollo starts and the radio sound stops). If I open the rdio app and if I manually change a radio channel by pressing a previously saved radio name, then the steering wheel buttons start to work as expected which is they do prev-next radio station.

Do you know how to fix this issue?
[Android Head-Units] John Sahl:

I just committed a change that enables the module to be built. Whenever we release another xdAuto that change will be in there.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I really don't know how that would work out, there are probably 30-40 different pins that are hooked up you would have to make some crazy adapters to get it to work. I'd definitely put some kind of strain relief on the cables if you try this. Likely would be interference issues as well.

Unless you've got a really non standard car where all of the speaker wires, antenna, etc. all run to a different place it seems like a major hassle.

[Android Head-Units] allseason:
Thanks tiwi for the information and the clarification…

I tried to replace the BonovoMCU app in my unit, not with factory tool though but via root explorer. But it reported something like unfortunately the update setting is force closed etc after the system boot or launch the app manually. Which I suspect was due to some compatibility issue as I extracted the app from xdAuto 1.1.6c2 but my system is still with the old 1.1.4 and MCU v40. Probably I will try to extract the BonovoMCU from some previous versions of xdAuto and see if it has a different/old version… Otherwise looks like I will have to upgrade my unit to get this feature... will try it when I get some time after work tonight or in the weekend…
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
All of the versions of xdAuto are based off of the 1.16 code base. There were some pretty major changes between 1.11.4 and 1.1.6 so you should upgrade to at least that version.

Though I'm not sure why you wouldn't just install the full xdAuto ROM? Especially if you are on something as old as 1.1.4

Hey Guys.

I noticed that since I have upgraded to the latest xdauto rom that my usb-hdd keeps getting a "UNEXPECTEDLY REMOVED" error everything the screen goes off / turn off ignition.

Like clockwork about 10 seconds after the ignition is turned off the hdd goes off.

Now the weird part is if i change the airplane mode standby time in the new/modified MCU app to anything but 0 standby (is was originally on 0 standby) the Hdd does not go off and when the ignition is turned back on there is no error.

Is anybody else getting this problem?
[Android Head-Units] Totoix:
Today, after boot, the radio app started automatically and we could get the radio sound. I pressed to another station name on the display. Then I pushed next-media button on the steering wheel. After these, I got two sounds. One from the radio and another from the apollo app. Going to home screen and pressing the radio app again solved the issue.

xdAuto rom makers, can you address these issues for the next release?
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I'm pretty sure [MENTION=1417599]klwa[/MENTION]lsh was experiencing that issue as well. I haven't had the time to investigate it but I'm pretty certain it's not a new issue but there could be something making it worse or causing the devices to get improperly removed.

In the past when I was looking into this I had a USB led light plugged in so it was obvious when power was applied/removed. When the device goes into deep sleep it would turn off, but if you would send a single ping at the IP (obviously when not in airplane mode) the USB light would come on.

Roger that.... sorry to early 5:00AM I must of interpreted your last post wrong.

I have just received this new 2gb box from newsmy and did not have this problem before on the old one.

I did flash straight from stock rom to xdauto rom, where before on my last unit I would of flashed each rom as they where released throughout the forum from the beginning.

Not sure if that would make any difference but that would be the only thing I have done differently between the 2 units
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I didn't realize you just got a new android box. I know for sure that the (hardware revision) v3.0 android boxes are slightly different than the v3.2, which you would have received. I've seen code in the kernel that notes that on v3.2 there is a gpio pin that can enable/disable power to the USB port.

I haven't had the time to figure out exactly where this happens in the code base. I say it is actually desired behavior since keeping the USB running (with devices plugged in) is a much higher power draw than a sleeping android box.

I suspect the real fix is to have some code properly disable the device before removing power.
[Android Head-Units] wacko37:
Thanks Bokomaru, that explains it and saves a lot of wasted time trying to rectify it.

Yeah new box alright..... my anger got the better of me and my old android box was no more? that was an expensive exercise.

[Android Head-Units] DragonFlye:
xdAuto comes with

two

launchers. The Newmy one and the Google Launcher.

The Google launcher can be fully adapted to suit your needs using the the Xposed Gel Settings module http://xdaforums.com/xposed/modules/mod-xposed-gel-settings-t2647275. You'll need to install the Xposed installer first then the module.

There is an option to remove the Google Now icon and microphone. Heck you can hide (widgets, appnames etc) or adjust (the annoying white frames, icon text, docks) just about anything. No need to install another third party launcher.

Personally, I made mine as minimalistic and unobtrusive as possible as i use Car Dashdroid as a frontend and there's really no use for an Android launcher at all.
