Test/Alpha Version of xdAuto

I've posted an alpha version I'd like people to test:

http://xfer.aokp.co/get.php?p=zaphod/nu3001/xdAuto-1.1.6c-alpha_200_density.zip

If you aren't comfortable with flashing/recovering your box, I don't suggest you test this. I'm also only sending this in .zip form. If you aren't already running xdAuto, you've got no business flashing this one first :)

Changes:

[MENTION=4173803]Bokomaru[/MENTION] - new code for AV switching. There is no UI for this yet - you can use Tasker to try this.
[MENTION=6472486]leonkernan[/MENTION] -fixes for music pause/sleep, etc (there could be some issues here - box might not wake properly all the time - we are still investigating)

My test stuff:

Loaded [MENTION=1089542]nestortoledo[/MENTION] new navbar icons.

Changed spacing of Navbar so that you can load as many buttons as you want - they also space out a little more when only a few selected.

Switched to 200 DPI. <-- this is the big one. Need to see how this affects other apps, and if we like it or not.

** Radio app had to be 'hacked' to run at 200 dpi. I didn't feel like fixing all the spacing issues for 200dpi for this test. Radio app should work just fine, but views are not properly aligned. If we decide we like 200DPI, I might even do that mythical radio app re-write :)
[Android Head-Units] kommando:
Once you run Viper it has a screen for each output, eg speaker, bluetooth, headset USB/dock. The screens are editable individually for each output and all apps that use that output have these settings applied. So if you play the radio or mp3 through the speaker the same setting apply, play them through Bluetooth and a different setting applies.

Correction, the Radio sends it signal through the speakers missing out the Android box, Viper only works on Android apps so it does not apply to the radio and the HU Bluetooth phone, but it does apply to say Apollo and Bluetooth on the Android box.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
Yes it does, though I'm not sure why you would use ext3 over ext4.

Well unfortunately that is not correct. Viper only can affect audio that is generated on the Android box. All of the other audio sources (radio, bluetooth, aux in) do not go through the Android box so they cannot be manipulated.
[Android Head-Units] supremekizzle:
Would this apply to what I asked last page? Viper changes Bluetooth music streaming through the bonovo Bluetooth app? Or is there a way to stream through the Android box. Thanks
[Android Head-Units] TeChNoGahd:
Haven't been able to get either ext3 or ext 4 to mount in l2sd
[Android Head-Units] kommando:
As long as the app runs on the android box and uses the android box outputs then Viper will change the audio settings, so it will apply it to the Bluetooth connection on the android box but not the Radio or Bluetooth in the head unit.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I'm not sure what l2sd is, but since most of the filesystems on the device are using ext4 I can confirm that it definitely works.
[Android Head-Units] duckstardeluxe:
Viper does not work for the FM radio app and as far as I know, not for the BT unit built in to the MCU (headunit), hence not for A2DP bluetooth streaming. It works for everything that is played via the Android box it self, eg. your preferred media files and streaming services.

Is a dirty flash not recommended?
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Speaking of the radio re-write. I've been doing a lot of though/pre-planning on how I want to lay this out. Want to get some feedback on my thoughts. I'm looking for a very simple, material-design inspired interface.

I plan to keep something similar to the current top banner, but all of the control buttons will be gone except for Forward/back. These will be dual purpose buttons (no more fine/step switch). short press will be your 'fine' operation, long press will step/seek to next freq.

I will remove the FM/AM/FAV lists in favor of a single grid of saved stations. The saved stations will be capable of both FM & AM. I'll provide a navigation drawer for access to other controls (Settings, Auto-Scan, and an AM/FM switch - we will still need a switch for when seeking frequencies that are not in the saved list.

So, the big question for design issues is how people are willing to use the saved stations? Do we really need separate FM/AM/FAV? Or can one grid be sufficient? I can make the grid scrollable, so no limit to the number of saved stations.

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

Dirty flash is fine.
[Android Head-Units] kommando:
In the UK in a Car only FM is of use, AM is only used if you are in some hellhole with no other signal.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I'm not sure about the change of the control buttons. I'm always annoyed when I'm in a car that has a radio that doesn't let you fast scroll through the station frequencies. Especially when I drive to a completely different area that has a ton of stations that it takes forever to seek through. For the back/fwd buttons I suspect there are multiple useful modes, especially when bundled with SWC back/fwd buttons. 1> advance through saved stations, 2> advance through frequencies (short press .1 MHz, long press fast scroll until release), 3> alternate advance through frequencies (short press seek to next, long press fast scroll until release)

I'd also like to see a normal scan button, that just keeps scanning (but not adding to the list) until you hit stop. Another possibility would be to scan through all of your favorite/saved channels until you hit stop.

I don't think separate grids for AM/FM/FAV are necessary, but it might be nice to have different unique favorites. I know my wife's would be different than mine.

Also I would make sure there is some space reserved for RDS, because I assume/hope eventually the data will be available since Newsmy has always said it will be.

These are my thoughts to make the app closer to a perfect app, though I'm not real picky especially because I don't use the radio often anymore.
[Android Head-Units] duckstardeluxe:
Dirty flash went well. The 200 dpi seems good as far as to the look of the apps I am using, and the Settings pull down, but I found the text size a bit to the small side, so I set it to Large in Android Settings.
[Android Head-Units] f(x):
Saved Station, like the Fav, sounds good as long as one could still use the swc that is mapped to 'Next Media' to scroll through the saved stations. I used to be able to do that with the stock radio app, but that function is broken in the latest build v1.1.6c. Anyway, I only use FAV most of the time anyway, so it is a good idea.
[Android Head-Units] tacopicante123:
That's great Zaphod! Appreciate your hard work! Is the popping noise also fixed for when both BT music and phone are turned on and we switch between phone apps?
[Android Head-Units] leonkernan:
Sorry, not in that one. In fact in that one the Bluetooth is the same as the previous version.

I've been trying to sort out sleep issues and haven't finished the Bluetooth to a point where it can be put in yet.

---------- Post added at 01:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:04 PM ----------

AM is important to me, one of the main stations I use is on AM.

I don't see any problem with one list though. At the moment I put AM and FM stations in one favorites list together anyway.

---------- Post added at 01:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:06 PM ----------

Thanks to [MENTION=4173803]Bokomaru[/MENTION] it looks like we've identified the sleep issue i've been having recently.

It appears that MCU v41 introduces a change that stops XDAuto and older Newsmy official versions from waking up properly from sleep some of the time.

For the moment, staying on MCU V40 is a safer bet until we get our heads around what has changed.
[Android Head-Units] jpsandiego:
I would just love to be able to tune into US region stations if that is possible. I listen to a lot of AM radio, but this unit does not allow me to select the correct frequencies. I know this is not a UI request, but I thought I would throw it out there. Thanks for all of your hard work, you guys have made this unit the best on the planet!
[Android Head-Units] tacopicante123:
No rush... I'm sure it will be a bug fix that will be fixed shortly
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
The frequencies are actually fine for US. What you are seeing is step intervals that don't correspond to US AM stations. It's easy enough to correct though. Just long press on a blank save spot (AM) and manually enter the frequency that you want. Give it a name and/or description. You can then tune directly to the freq.
[Android Head-Units] jpsandiego:
Haha lmao ... this whole time I could have been using my radio. Thank you Zaphod!!!!!!
[Android Head-Units] Fedorych:
Dear developers, I need your help.

My problem I described earlier in this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=61637985&postcount=5697.

Today I continued to experiment.

I installed update-1.1.4.3- tuatara.img (610M), then install xdAuto-1.1.6c.img.

The video shows how the switching radio stations in this firmware

[Android Head-Units] zanix:
This is really awesome, great work!

I think a single grid is good, I don't see any good reason to have to switch modes just to get more presets.
[Android Head-Units] Scebbo:
Hi everyone.

Decided to register on this forum, although I've been lurking on XDA for a couple of years now. I received my NU3001 a couple of days ago, bought directly from Summer (PayPal). For a couple of days, while waiting for a wiring harness and 2DIN frame to arrive for my Hyundai Santa Fe, I've been busy playing with the unit, which has been powered by a PC PSU.

Besides just playing with Android (sw upgrade + rooting), I've also tested two 3G dongles, with two different operators. All combinations required absolutely zero config (no manual APN settings, whatsoever) and were immediately working. Just plug & play. What I've noticed is that when the screen goes off, connectivity drops, and it doesn't get back online until screen is on again. It takes some 15 secs or so to get connected again. Of course there is a workaround for this just simply setting the screen never go off.

At this point I cannot comment more, but so far the build quality of the unit and smooth running of KitKat have exceeded my expectations.

Looking forward receiving that wiring harness :)
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
Congrats.

I think many of us were surprised with the build quality and also the smoothness and the fluidness of Android. The fact that Newsmy have been making tablets and phones all these years really help them with HUs.

Our KK is very vanilla, so I hope that 5.0 will arrive sooner rather than later.

I still have the screen protector that came from the manufacturer, but Just bought 4 Note 10.1 screen protector and will custom cut it to fit this HU....Dont want it to be all scratched up.
[Android Head-Units] Dream Reality Syndrome:
That's something I hadn't thought of, a screen protector!

[Android Head-Units] nu!me!:
Is it posibile to connect externeal USB DAC to this unit ?

(or any other android based HU)

I would like to get best sound of it so I belive that conecting external DAC would help with that . . .
[Android Head-Units] priusfan:
Why would you need an external USB DAC ????

If you use a good player for instance N7 Player , you can use any format like Flac or Ogg.

You just need to get the right files...
[Android Head-Units] alaninsitges:
A high-end sound card or standalone DAC would sound much better than the built-in soundcard with the cheap RCA connectors for a high-end system.

And yes, you can, it's been tried by a couple of users further back in the thread.

Before purchase I sent email to Summer (using Aliexpress contact form) talking about prices and I sent a greetings to her also from this forum thread :o (sorry guys not asking you permissions before).

Well, she answered that for us (xda members or users) they are offering special price. Actually it was ordinary last month price 339$ + shipping, but at least better than 6xx$.

I think that reason of double price for today is 11.11 shopping festival where sellers are rising prices up for possibility to offer crazy discounts. As result, buyers are paying regular price anyway.

I can tell that Summer was also very responsive and quickly answered to all my questions.

Now I'm too waiting for my new device.
[Android Head-Units] timothyjf:
I installed my head unit over the weekend. I did a self install because I wanted to make sure everything was working the way I wanted and wanted to put the carpad in the glovebox. All went well! I will be flashing the amplified rom tomorrow.

For those interested here are my pros/cons with the unit (stock everything running 1.0.8):

Pros-

It's Android

Lots of features

I can watch my slingbox in my car for full TV

I use Google Music and play music via Bluetooth for most of my audio and it works flawlessly

My car did have resistive steering wheel controls and it worked out of the box

Cons-

Brightness does work, BUT I must put the unit to sleep and wake it for it to take affect

Worse than a phone, should be illegal to use while driving lol

I cannot adjust the brightness of the illumination on the buttons; they are super bright at night

Only a left/right connector for your amplifier

Fixable Cons-

Chinese stuff that I don't even know what's going on there (this was expected, though)

Time in the navbar seemed to be sticky, but I did get it to change after a small headache (I am no novice!)

Does not come with superSU

Radio software is completely user unfriendly

Notes-

I had first connected my phone via the Bluetooth settings. This is not the way to do it. You must use the Bluetooth app, instead.

The steering wheel controls have three wires (KEY-1, KEY-2, KEY-GRND) It took me a while to figure out that I only needed to connect KEY-1 and KEY-GRND to my car (Mazda 3)

I did get the Nissan adaptor, but stripping the wires and getting a wiring harness for my car's radio made this easier. The only thing I had to strip from my car's radio hardness was the steering wheel controls with this option. I used a wiring clamper and male/female connectors to make it so I can upgrade in the future.

I do have a amplifier installed in my car (again, self installed) and it was easy enough to hook up. I did, however, have to buy two RCA-Y adaptors to get the front and back speakers working. This is due to the unit only having one RCA-AUX out connector.

If anyone has questions on how to hook this up or anything specific, please let me know.
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
Did anyone bought their coupons? and actually used it today? Every time I looked up the coupons they were sold out. If you bought the coupons than that would have been a killer deal.

To our old hats, try and help out the new guys getting updated to mcu26 and 1.0.9 stock or amplified. I know one guy just said he had troubles with brightness and supersu. Amplified and mcuv26 will cure that.

Anyways, I'll talk more as soon as I can.

It contains just an Android system image, no changelog.

It's only just booted on my box, but only thing I know so far is it identifies itself as AD3188_KK4.4.2_CARPAD_1.2.1

* Lots of new Chinese apps. Even switching to English they are still all Chinese.

* FM radio is totally different. Actually, there is the normal radio and an app called FM... not sure whats going on there.

* BonovoMediaTool - is that new?

* It's got apps like Youku, Wechat and Weibo installed by default. We clearly are not the target market for this version.

* You can shop from your dashboard on Alibaba .

* There's an app that I think wants to sell me a car???

* I'm not kidding, there is an included game called Carrot Fantasy (that i'm not very good at!)

No obvious changes to the normal included apps. They've got the new look that we've seen since 1.1.9 but can't see anything that stands out as new.
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I'm flashing it right now too :)

It's a lot larger than most updates. And from what I see in FactoryTool, it has a lot more included apps

Hi all,

I haven't been around for a while and seriously need to get my system upgraded to the latest ROM you guys have created! One question for the users that have DAB in their country, has anybody got DAB working via an external usb dongle? I think I saw some postings but they complained about the poor state of the Android apps out there and their interfaces.

On a quick google I also came across this -> http://navallstore.com/Head-Units/Ford/dab-android-dab-navall

More info from a UK reseller here -> http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=215321

Android App on Google Play -> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dab.navallstore

Description

-Full Functional but requires our DAB receiver and aerial

-Works on Any Android Head unit with Android 4.0 and above

-Has 3 Skins colors to choose from

-FM Radio Control

-up to 8 Stored FM Stations

-up to 8 Stored DAB Stations

-on screen keyboard for easy station entry

-Scroll and select DAB stations

-Requires our DAB receiver with aerial (can be purchased at www.navallstore.com)

-Head unit requires dedicated USB Input

-Head unit requires Auxiliary Input

Sounds promising although I assume it supports non-navall headunits and will require the ability for the app to control the tuner over USB whilst playing audio out via an aux input.
