I've been trying to get my 3g dongle working all night, Huawei E353. I tried to enable modem only mode, using AT^U2DIAG=0, but I got errors when doing so. It looks like all E353's are not the same, because eventually I was able to change some settings using AT^SETPORT (see: http://www.draisberghof.de/usb_modeswitch/bb/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1465&start=15), but there is no way to enable modem only mode.

At first it seemed Android was at least recognizing the stick, but I couldn't get the APNs to stick (I tried reseting and rebooting). Then I tried PPP Widget and PPP Widget 2, but I keep getting "No Modem Found". It looks like it starts to configure the device, but then it fails. I even re-flashed Tuatara's ROM again, same thing. I am thinking I either need a different dongle or just a hotspot instead.

I've asked before, but what Bluetooth application?
[Android Head-Units] supremekizzle:
Sorry.
[Android Head-Units] Psy87:
Maybe just open your eyes? :cyclops: It's very obvious.

There is an app called "Bluetooth"

Otherwise you can read the manual
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
It is quite literally an app in your app drawer called "Bluetooth"

Not under Settings>Bluetooth
[Android Head-Units] horn34:
I don't have a "Bluetooth" app. I'm running Tua's ROM, so if there's a BT app that's supposed to be in the ROM, it's not there now. Anyone know where to get it?

preparing SD card

today i connected my 1tb drive with music.

this works oke.

Only thing is, that it slows down booting a lot.

after boot it starts with "preparing SD card"

Is there another way to mount the drive permanently ?

I did the flash with the rkbatchtool from a PC, which I am pretty sure wipes it. I ordered a hotspot, but will keep playing with this to see if I can get it working.

has anyone also an reboot issue with tuataras rom when connecting the android box to a tv via hdmi and usb storage for powering?

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I saw that issue. Not sure if it was there with the stock rom or others, but initially I thought my box was dead until I hooked it up to the HU for display and then the boot would actually complete.

Never looked into the issue more since I'm currently hooked to my HU on the desk, though that will change once I get the HU installed in my car.
[Android Head-Units] B-Hard:
Oh thanksful i am not the only one :p

It would be great to modify android from my desk and not in the car...

hey,

thx
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
That said.... If anybody has any info or resources on what types of boot animations work, or where some are located that fit our resolution, that would be a good resource to add to the wiki. I know there is the factory ROM tool, but no info on how to use it
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I'm not sure what modifications you want to do, but most of the stuff I've been doing I just do with the USB hooked up and using ADB. Though I'm doing mostly system development and not too much UI stuff.

Maybe you need DC plugged in to use HDMI? Maybe someone else can chime in if they have just HDMI and USB plugged in
[Android Head-Units] B-Hard:
Sure but i want to modify my widgets, theme and stuff liike that...
[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
I use a USB to mini USB from computer into the otg input on the android box. Then have a self powered iusb hub that goes into the other USB input. Connect HDMI, profit
[Android Head-Units] Black6spdZ:
No guarantees that will work reliably on all computers.. the android box by itself is already stressing the power capabilities of most USB ports let along anything else attached to the USB port on the android box. Here is someones observations on an MK908 TV stick "very similar hardware"

"I tested running my device using a watt meter (Omni MMA-D02P) and at idle with minimal background apps running, the device barely consumes 2 watts of power (this includes consumption of standard optical mouse hooked to my device). I ran Antutu and I observed the device could suck as much as 7.5 watts maximum when performing tests that included CPU benchmarking, around 5 watts when performing GPU test and around 4-5 watts for RAM tests and lower than 3 watts for some other tests. I have also tested the power consumption for games (PvZ 2, Zombie Tsunami..) and the device could suck up to 10 watts."

The USB 1.x and 2.0 specifications provide a 5 V supply on a single wire to power connected USB devices.

A unit load is defined as 100 mA in USB 2.0, and 150 mA in USB 3.0. A device may draw a maximum of 5 unit loads (500 mA) from a port in USB 2.0; 6 (900 mA) in USB 3.0

Also this is XDA why isnt there an update made to instal on the unit for equalizer yet??? Slacking

Besides no equalizer which isnt needed if you have a amp any way.. You juat need to cut the speaker harness it comes with and hook it up to a amp
[Android Head-Units] deeznutz1977:
Nice bro your buying and your going to make an update with an equalizer

[Android Head-Units] horn34:
I've got a weird issue. I use Escort Live (radar detector app) and it's showing the speed in KPH. There is no setting to change it to MPH. The Escort Live devs say that the app picks KPH or MPH based on your country location in Android settings.

So Tuatara, you're in New Zealand, which uses KPH. Is there some regional setting in your ROM that is hard coded? Like the Mobile Country Code? I have High Accuracy selected in Location Settings, but my Escort Live app still thinks I'm in New Zealand.

[Android Head-Units] horn34:
build.prop is full of NZ entries, including persist.sys.country

I tried to edit it, but the file won't save. I have no idea what the problem is since I've never had a problem editing a build.prop file. I'm using Root Browser, the directory is set to R/W; I make the changes to the build.prop file, save them, close the file and when I reopen it, all then edits are gone. It's like some security setting is reverting the changes. Any ideas?
[Android Head-Units] snakeyes37:
The aux in and not being able to minimize it bothers me, I have people in my passenger seat alot that have iphones and Android phones and not being able to plug in they're phones and listen to something and minimize it doesn't really fly with me.

Another thing that doesn't make much sense, why is there a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen when there's already capactitive buttons on the side? To me that's just a dumb design flaw as that navigation bar is taking up valuable screen real estate so in realty your actually getting less resolution than what's described.

[Android Head-Units] bockywocky:
Downloading the Map is only a problem if there is no space enough available on the internal memory. The Maps are going bigger and bigger.

I bought backup cameras from them, and everything was fine, but I can't speak to whether they are selling official newsmy units. (I did email and ask them, and they said yes, it was from the newsmy factory, but I don't know for sure)
[Android Head-Units] Black6spdZ:
Bluetooth audio streaming? Not very hard to connect and send it that way and who uses cables anymore? Also, since the 3001 and 5002 models share the same Android box, the 5002 needs the bar because it has no capacitive buttons, all screen. So to make things easier and share ROMs between the two Newsmy includes by default. You can hide it with a build.prop edit and/or modify it directly in a custom ROM for yourself using FactoryTool.
[Android Head-Units] snakeyes37:
Thanks, I'm an audiophile so bluetooth streaming doesn't cut it for me. But I guess it's not that big of a deal.

I'm illiterate when it comes to custom roms and whatnot so I have no idea what your talking about using factory tool haha.

[Android Head-Units] ElfinJNoty:
That's who I ordered mine from. Took 7 days to get to Texas, USA.

The unit was delivered as expected, they even threw in a cheap camera, which I might use as a front facing option later. But ordered a separate license plate frame cam instead from elsewhere. TopNavi ended up $40 cheaper than ordering straight from Newsmy. Only blemish with my unit is that I don't have my install finalized because it doesn't sit in my ford double din perfectly, 1/4 inch gap on left and right. 1/8 inch top and bottom. So I can see the flex cable from the screen from the front bottom left. Still trying to figure out a sort of "bezel" approach.... But not sure yet.

I think I answered that? TopNavi was an okay seller lol and cheaper than Newsmy

Ok, need help ASAP. This thing won't boot. It's stuck on the Tuatara ROM swirling balls. Can't get the Rockchip app to work for restoring it, since the box has to be booted first. WTF
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
You can get it into the bootloader mode by holding the tiny button next to the firewire port in with a paperclip (carefully) and then plugging in the USB. Then you should be able to use the rockchip app to flash a new image

Hello ALL,

i have some problems with this unit stock firmware 1.1.5

First it does not show any missed calls. Is there a possibility for this ?

Then music playback stops if a call comes in or i call somebody. I want that it resume playback .I have played a bit with tasker, but i failed.

Furthermore i want to raise the navigation speech from navigon a bit, when music is playing in the background. It lowers the music in the background a bit, when navigations is running, but this is not enough.

Can anybody help ???

Im downloading to check it and see if have changelog
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
1. Can't help you here because I don't have 1.1.5 installed. But a lot of other people, including myself are using other dialers like eDailer instead.

2. This is not possible. I have requested this to Summer through the the Newsmy FB page. She assures me that this is normal behavior. I told her it is not intuitive as I have to go back and press play manually which is a pain while driving. Will ping her again with your irritation and see what she says.

3. In Android, go to Settings > Sound and raise/lower the Alarms sound. I use iGO and at least for me, the Alarms sound raises and lowers the voice navigation in addition to what is available in the navigation application itself.

missed calls

What rom are you using ???

Does it notify missed calls ??

I use already exdialer in stock 1.1.5 but i get no notify about missed calls ??
[Android Head-Units] spoks:
Should it notify of missed calls? I am not sure, because it works as hands free unit, not as fully equipped phone device.

But, perhaps, I am wrong.
[Android Head-Units] DragonFlye:
Having two HU's, One with Tuatara's ROM and one with stock ROM, I decided to to flash yours.

Immersive StatusBar

As you stated the immersive effect isn't optimal. Though the navbar appears immersive on the launcher's main screen, it briefly appears when launching an app before disappearing. The launched app opens and subsequently needs to resize its screen. Some apps (i.e Google Play) do not resize as they should and you're left missing part of the screen exactly the size of the statusbar.

Solved using Gravity box with settings: Original - Immersive Mode (Statusbar) OFF, Gravity Box -> Display Tweaks -> Expanded desktop mode -> Immersive status bar
​

Immersive NavBar

Sadly, when in immersive mode, it does not free it's occupied space for the desktop. It

does

for launched apps. 600 pixels in height is all that much and it would be nice if the launcher could use all of that. On the positive side, it doesn't garble the Radio screen.

Solved using Gravity box with settings: Original - Immersive Mode (Navbar) OFF, Gravity Box -> Display Tweaks -> Expanded desktop mode -> Immersive navigation bar​

Both Bars

Somehow, Google maps doesn't seem to obey the immersive rules. It displays both bars consistently, no matter the settings.

If you want both bars to be truly immersive use Gravity Box -> Display Tweaks -> Expanded desktop mode -> Immersive. Perhaps use Tasker to toggle immersive mode for the Radio App
​

Most experienced users would now about Gravity Box. Just mentioned it for those who don't. Depending if you're using a NU3001 or a NU5002, you can experiment with the settings

Two little things:

Using the default launcher the Google Search widget gets cropped, displaying "Goog". On Tuatara's Rom it displays the capital "G"

When trying to change the bootlogo, I get an error using the FactoryTool 1.4, display "Kernel Path no exists", when the update.img is loaded
[Android Head-Units] guap:

I added the 2 new branches to the github repository today. 'base-1.0.9' is the original source we had, and 'base-1.1.6' is the newer source. These are really only for reference and we should be merging changes into the master branch.

The reason I did this was so it's easy to do a diff between the different branches. I'm going to get to work on merging some of the changes in soon.
[Android Head-Units] horn34:
You need to plug the USB mini from the NU3001 to a USB power supply that has at least 1A. To plug a keyboard/mouse in, they need to be plugged into a powered USB hub that plugs into the NU3001 USB.

The whole key to success doing this is power. You need at least 1A for the mini USB and a powered USB hub for the peripherals. I use this setup and have have had no issues powering up, viewing over HDMI, flashing, etc.
