Welcome! Never heard of your website before until now so ill be sure to go take a look (currently an avid PLEX / WMC user).

To answer some of your questions; I took my H/U into my local Radio Shack and they were able to give me the proper plug and A/C adapter to power up the H/U. Not sure how many Radio Shacks are left now though? I'm currently traveling so if I can remember when I get home ill look at my adapter and plug to see if there is any info on it. Others have been using the USB to power the device but from my understanding , its not a good idea as I think (?) someone fried his H/U by doing that.

Yes I am using Xposed without any issues. Others are as well. Xposed worked for every ROM we've had for this device (provided ROOT is working).

I'm confused as to what you're asking about a guide for the RockChip to update the device?

As far as screenshots of the custom ROMs I don't think anyone bothered. They all look the same as the stock ROM minus a fancy boot animation, etc. The real customization of the ROMs are "behind the scenes" and not with the GUI. It still is basically stock Android. Unless you count [MENTION=1089542]nestortoledo[/MENTION] custom overlay?

Hi I have a 3001 2gb installed in a 2011 TT but used a connects2 adaptor. I have steering wheel buttons working for volume, mute, next/prev track and phone answer. Never seen anything about parking sensors but I just have beeping parking sensors without graphic so what I never had I don't miss.

I use a fairly cheap BT OBD interface and Torque works fine with the HU in the Audi apart from the throttle % which just seems to sit at 80% most of the time.

I did want to go for the no buttons slightly bigger than 2 din version but did some measuring and seemed hu pad depth would cause it to sit proud of the dash slightly not sinking in to the 2 din hole, which the one I have does nicely.

BTW just got mine recently (first post) and flashed with Tuatara rom this weekend, nice one mate thanks for your hard work:good: Struggling with adb to remove the Nav bar/ soft keys, still learning Im a nubee to Android world with a lot to learn but getting there. Any other nubee reading this and wondering if they should jump, go for it! it's great and if I can do it you can:o
[Android Head-Units] briangig:
While getting ADB working is a good move, look into Xposed with GravityBox to hide the keys. If you can flash a ROM you can definitely get Xposed working, and it opens the doors for more advanced modifications.

This mean that bonovo app included on this rom (radio), are now working nice in multidpi or atlesat 160dpi ?

I second your idea that best dpi should be between 200 and 220. as i post before i use 213dpi, that may be not the best, but is one of the standards dpi used by google. (first gen of nexus 7 if not remember bad used 213dpi) so that ensure no problems with market app

Hello Everyone!

I'm using NU5261 (VW version) for few days. Great device, but there is one small issue - maybe someone could advise me something. There is an option to assign "Navigation" to any of hardware key/wheel keys, but how to set what application should be used? I have my own nav app installed.

Offline Commands

So, I've got a mic working and now I'm looking to enable offline commands

I'm not always able (or willing) to tether an internet connection, but I'd like to command my NU3001 to do something like

Play music [Track]

Open [App]

Next Track

etc

Preferably using build-in offline Google voice commands (I know there's Utter!). I've downloaded the offline languages, but when starting Google Voice, it states it can't reach the server.

Anyway to establish this?
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
I think Google now allows you to use download language pack for offline use. If that doesn't work, there is an xposed module which tricks the app and forces use for offline voice recognition.

There is also an app called "Commandr for Google Now" which let's you "okay Google" and then give many commands by voice. Can also be used with tasker to set virtually any android intent command.

Which mic did you get to work?

Anyone else tried a 3G USB dongle?

I have a huawei e353 that gets recognized and there is no sim PIN set on the sim. But it won't detect a network. Also, i can't set an APN.

Sim and the e353 does work in Windows/osx so I know its not broken...

Does somebody have any suggestion?

[Android Head-Units] DragonFlye:
The offline language packs are there, but when I activate the mic widget on the desktop (google now launcher), it says it can't reach Google and won't accept commands. Running speech to text does work when activating the mic from an onscreen keyboard but that's probably using another API.

Using the GoogOfflineVoice xposed mod, but that doesn't work. Haven't tried the Commandr yet.

The mic I'm using (for testing purposes) is from an USB gamers headset. Thinking of buying something like this: http://www.dx.com/en/p/usb-powered-mini-microphone-for-pc-black-240085#.VRwli-FCoed

On the other hand, I've already got a mic in my car. I wonder if something like this might work:

[Android Head-Units] asidorowicz:
So after messing with the code for a couple of weeks, I got the unit installed in my car. I do however have questions for the others that have messed with this unit

- The bluetooth call quality is subpar... Mic volume is very low, despite being really close. Has anyone had any positive experiences with replacing the mic?

- I have a Mode button on my SWC that I'd want to map to a "task switcher", which would change the focus of the foreground app to the next running app. Does such a thing exist? How do you guys map your Mode buttons?

- Has anyone succeeded in either bluetooth tethering or USB tethering to share internet connection with a phone?

I'm guessing the phone currently pairs with the MCU and not the android device, so this may be a problem for a couple things... Could we just route the phone through the android box and forget the MCU bluetooth?
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
Guys.... I've seen mention of a aokp ROM in the works. I'm trying to find out if there is a link to any work that may have been started with that.......

I am a support staff member of a ROM by TeamBliss called BlissPop. I see that source is available on the wiki. Just wondering if there is already an aokp wip

I'm in the process of working with my lead dev to do a few test builds.... We are just trying to get all of our ducks in a row. Any information for reference to code source and device tree would be super useful
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
This device has two bluetooth modules. One for the MCU, which does HFP and A2DP. The Rk3188 box also has a module, and can be turned on in settings. It supports bluetooth tethering. The Mic in the units are hardwired to the MCU BT module. No way to re-direct that currently.

Mode switching isn't something currently available, but would be easy enough for me to code in. It's just a task hopping intent:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/ActivityManager.html#getRunningTasks(int)

---------- Post added at 12:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:00 PM ----------

Yes, I have done a lot of work on porting AOKP. My current source is available here: https://github.com/Zaphod-Beeblebrox/platform_manifest

and of course if you want the current source for stock Newsmy ROM (with a few small additions we've been working on) : https://github.com/Nu3001/platform_manifest
[Android Head-Units] TomatoOne:
I've been wondering about the same thing, the microphone volume is very low during calls. The plan is to dig under the headliner and check the impedance of the factory microphone. If it's a reasonable match, perhaps it can be wired to the head unit for better sound quality.

Haven't tried that, but Wifi tethering can be very easy to set up. Some ROMs (like Cyanogen on my OnePlus One) allow you to switch configuration profiles using Bluetooth as a trigger. So when the phone detects Bluetooth in my car, it automatically enables the "Car" profile with wifi tethering on. When I exit the car and the Bluetooth link drops, the phone turns tethering off to conserve the battery. Fully automated, you never have to touch the phone.
[Android Head-Units] MadMax31:
All 5 buttons are working fine in my 06' Tacoma, I mapped the Mode button to Android's Home. I just connected directly the wires from the resistor ladder to the newsmy unit.

Currently I am researching if I can add the right column of (3) buttons to my steering wheel and how much would cost me.
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
How far along have you gotten on getting an aokp build to boot?

Aside from the MCU... Are there additional apps/services required for the android box to function correctly with the HU?

Just trying to avoid something that will run on the box but fail to function properly with the HU
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Oh, it boots fine. Wifi and Bluetooth wasn't working. I also didn't have the Emmc confirm right. TURN recovery boots, but again I didn't have the final right.

It's been a few months since I worked on.

As for mcu, I think that's already covered in my builds. Mcu just needs kernel and Bonovo apps. Which I had already setup.

Note that our aokp source is based on 1.0.9. We hadn't started upgrading any apps at that time.
[Android Head-Units] kingamra:
Re mic

Same problem...

Hu needs omnidirectional mic (thanks to who posted that first)... i went thru all the mics I could find on amazon and radio shack (rip)... all the ones with great reviews had a voltage requirement for optimal performance... Summer said our jack doesn't have any voltage output... i threw in the hat and picked up a plantronics headset...

Ho hum
[Android Head-Units] danny6869:
Funny you should mention these two. I just ordered new microphones because I had the same complaint about the handsfree. As for the task switcher, I am looking for exactly that. If I can't find one, this may become my pet project.
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
So I'm confused.... There is a mic input in the back right? But it won't work for Google now? And the quality is bad?

And then is there a usb microphone that is suggested? And will that one work with Google now?

I know its been discussed guys. I'm late to the party and just trying to catch up lol

Wow really? Do you know if you hooked up to the SWC-1 or SWC-2 wire on the headunit? I have two wires coming from my trucks wiring harness (in my previous headunit install, this went to a AWSC-1 unit), I assume that is what you mean by the resistor ladder?

I've wondered about this too, can't say i've seen anyone who's done it.

A big holdup seems to be lack of support in the Google designed Bluetooth stack (Bluedroid).

Hi everyone,

I was long looking for an Android unit that didn't look like ****. Parrot's Asteroid Smart was an option but way too expensive and slow. Then I found this little gem and the XDA forum convinced me I should buy it. I use Waze and Spotify a lot in my car on my phone but I wanted something with a bigger screen that would always be there, on, with battery, etc.

I've bought the NU3001 2GB version directly from Newsmy, got it shipped to Europe in about 5 days. To wire it up I used an Connects2 SWC adapter and everything works, audio controls, BT controls, radio, etc. I own a 2012 Suzuki Swift. The head unit had BT, Radio, DVD, etc. and it had a pretty decent sound but I wanted more.

It came with FW 1.1.4 and I flashed it to Tuatara 1.1.4.2. Now, I read and searched as much as I could but still was unable to find answer to these issues:

- Factory Tool 4.4 can't unpack the Tuatara ROM, it gives an error when unpacking the boot ("Boot is wrong"). I would like to change the logo to fit my car.

- I know I read somewhere that there's an alternative Radio App that works better but can't seem to find it now.

[Android Head-Units] pmburton:
Is there a definitive answer to what causes the screen flicker. I notice it is associated with crackling audio so I suspect the firewire cable or connectors are likely culprits. Is it just a standard firewire cable/connector? Has anyone tried replacing it and has it cured the problem?

Paul
[Android Head-Units] alaninsitges:
I don't think it's cable-related, at least not in my case.

I had no trouble with flicker at all until about the time I switched to Tuatara´s ROM. At first it only happened once in a while but within a few days it was happening all the time. While the car was on I removed the radio and android box, moving cables around, pounding on stuff, it had nothing to do with anything physical.

Then while I was driving I noticed something. I live in an area where I have to drive through a lot of tunnels and mountains to get to the city and mobile coverage is pretty terrible, since I listen mostly to streaming radio via Xiialive the signal (and music) stops and buffers a lot. Xiialive plays a sound every time it loses a stream and starts to buffer again and it also puts a little mark on the timeline. One night while driving home I noticed that it seemed like the flickering (and audio popping) coincided with the times that the music was buffering. So I pulled up the timeline and...

every time the signal dropped and Xiialive started buffering, the screen flickered. Every dot on that timeline over an 18-minute span represents an episode of screen flickering.

Two days later it stopped flickering completely and I haven't seen it in two weeks. No idea why. It's a mystery. Tuatara mentioned that he had changed some graphics settings that might cause weirdness in unexpected places so I wonder if it could be related. I also suspect those same settings might be responsible for the intermittent stuttering in music playback people have been reporting.
[Android Head-Units] pmburton:
Did you get crackling audio as well? I wonder if the 3g dongle is emitting a stronger signal in this case of a loss of signal and there is poor shielding on the cable or elsewhere. Perhaps I'll try moving my dongle on a long lead and see if that makes a difference.
[Android Head-Units] alaninsitges:
Yup, crackling audio too. But my dongle quit working with Tuatara´s ROM so I'm tethered using wifi now.

I do wonder if this is related to networking somehow though.
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
So I have been buying different things to control the music when I'm in my car, my car is older so it doesn't have steering wheel control. Just found this gem today and ordered it, going to arrive Sunday. Hope this answer all my issue so I dont have to rely on navbar/usb remote.

Hey guys, yesterday I got my NU3001 2Gb. Today I have started to mount it and everything works properly. I have a 2006 Ford Focus and the steering wheel controls work perfectly without any adapter. Put it in the Wiki if you think proper. I have not yet installed any of the cooked rom.

I have the V35 version Mcu and 1.1.3 Rom. To install Tuataras is the same as the original rom update? Ie put in a SD tuatara.img and connect to the Android box?

[Android Head-Units] Invidiousdemise:
Can anyone shed some light on steering wheel controls for me?

I'm trying to get my 1997 Pontiac Firebird controls working which I believe to be resistive. I've connected the blue wire from the OEM wiring in the car to the silver/grey wheel key 1 wire and grounded the ground wire by tying into the thick black ground that comes off my METRA harness. Do I need to buy an adapter and if so why? As I understand it, the way a resistive set of buttons works is simply a bunch of if/then gates that send different individual electrical signals based on which button is pressed. Shouldn't the NU3001 be able to process those and allow me to program with no need for an adapter. I don't understand why there is even a market for adapters? Why don't radio manufacturers make their stuff compatible? I'll buy the adapter if that's what's necessary but I don't want to if I don't need to.
[Android Head-Units] zanix:
You should connect the ground wire from the controls to the "key gnd" wire on the NU3001
[Android Head-Units] briangig:
When you get this, can you let me know if it is possible to remap the keys to other functions? I have volume and track control on my steering wheel, but wouldn't mind mounting this somewhere to launch other apps, etc.

Anyone experiencing swc buttons interferring with one another? I have an 06 Suzuki Grand Vitara and I have all swc buttons mapped according to their defaults. It's the volume and mute that I am having issues with.

When I increase the volume past to 18 or 20, it mutes it at that level. Keep pressing volume up, it the unmutes, but then mutes again at something like 23. If the mute button on the swc is not mapped, then I don't have this issue. Played arround with the accuracy and set it to 40 or 50, which temporarily fixes the issues, but then back to the same issue.
[Android Head-Units] alaninsitges:
New Newsmy interprets a long press on volume down as mute so it may be a timing thing.

Actually it's not a long press, but when I reach a certain level when increasing the volume. I don't have this issue from volume level 0-20. It's after that where the problem occurs.

I've noticed that the values on the keypad app change when remapping. I'm just trying to figure out how the "set accuracy" works.
