Yes, download the stock rom image, then follow the flashing instruction the wiki http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Newsmy_CarPad_NU3001#Updating_ROM_.26_MCU

As far as I knew the stock ROM doesn't have standby time options or that they didn't work
[Android Head-Units] allseason:
Hi guys, I have seen quit a few people mentioned the default 2 hours standby time of the HU but I really got confused about this. So is the box will be standby even after the key is pulled out, or with the key still there but just manually trun off the LCD? In my case it will go through the boot process every time I turn the key from ACC to LOCK, pulling it out or not. And actually that make sense to me as when the key is turned away from ACC to LOCK, is it supposed to cut off the power supply?

Anyway I did notice the light in the android box will stay green if it has a usb attached to it, after the car key out. And the light will be off once I pulled out the usb. I didn't try to see if it will keep on for a while though if I leave the usb with it.

Forgot to mention that my CAR is a Subaru Forester 2010. Not sure if anyone of you own the same model and have the same behaviour of the HU/Box?

Thanks,

AS

The speed volume runs off the gps. Works fine here.?
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
Thanks for the reply. I'll probably stick to buying the NU3001. ю

BTW, have you or anyone else tried a DVB-T setup? IDo I have to buy a special DVB-T adapter or can I use a an Android DVB-T USB receiver or even something more generic? Come to think of it, do you think it would be possible to use the TV apk from the AN21-U unit, as well as, other system apks like the Radio, Bluetooth, Equalizer, etc...?

Thanks for donations (and what the plan is for the money)

Guys, I've already gotten two donations and that's two more than I expected already. I just want to thank you for that. Unless you want to remain anonymous, please send me a PM if you make a donation so I can call you out in the forum and thank you directly.

Again, I can't thank you guys enough. If we get enough starting to come in I'll make sure to put up a graph showing how far we are from goal (which is only about 400$)

If we ever even get close to that, I'll be building a new headless server for code builds and to serve as a git server.

If any of you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Gotta run back to work now but this was just so unexpected I felt obligated to thank everyone. :good::highfive::victory:

PS. Make that 3 donations, thanks priusfan!!!

That actually puts us at about 1/8 towards goal of 400$

Looking at getting one of these.

Questions

1) What is the Android Box for and is it a requirement to use the headunit?

2) Why the vast price differences? Am I missing something.

http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Newm...igation-fox-one-piece-machine/2020336917.html Says for Mitsubishi.. but I thought they were universal?

Just Bought This one

Hi All

Lets see how this plays out.

I got this unit http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Newm...igation-fox-one-piece-machine/2020336917.html

Don't know why they say its for Mitsubishi, hopefully fits my Toyota Vanguard 2011 (RAV4) as it will be replacing my AN-21U ....

Here's hoping

Don't worry, it will fit. I've seen this kind for wrong notification/fitments before on AliExpress.

AliExpress is exactly like eBay, but only for Chinese sellers. And please keep in mind that not all Chinese people speak/type English very well..

Placed the H/U today. I'm very happy and everything went as planned.

I have placed it in my Mazda MX-5 PRHT 2010.

SWC works perfectly and responds fast. And I can confirm that vehicle speed signal (V. CON 12V cable) works! Reverse camera does work as aspected to. Radio works good to. But just seeing the FM numbers as expected.

I'm very surprised about the quality of the built-in amplifier! It should be 25 watts (RMS) but it sounds like it has much more! I was planning on installing 2 amps, 1 for sub and 1 for front/rear speaker. I'm not going to do that any more because of the good quality of the built-in amp. I'm planning on having 1 amp for the sub now and keep the front/rear connected as it is.

Did find out that TomTOm does not work. Initial when I was testing at home with a computer PSU it looked all good but while driving it said that it was looking for GPS signal

Google Maps does work, so it is not a problem with the H/U.

After searching on internet I found out that TomTom does not work on multiple Android devices. The problem occurs when you are having an version of Android above 2.3.6.

Some people have installed a custom rom of cyanogenmod and reported that installing that rom fixed the problem. So it is software related.

So...... I've searched the internet for that to and found out that the problem is in the GPS.hal file. the cyanogenmod rom has a different version.

Still looking for a way to extract this file from a cyanogenmod rom and placing it in the rom that we/I need for this H/U.

First testing:

[Android Head-Units] Sterg1967:
P.CONT cable or V.CONT 12 cable?
[Android Head-Units] renedis:
My bad! Yes I meant V. CON 12V for the speed signal wire!

I will edit my post
[Android Head-Units] usafle:
Was bored and looking through the thread again today, see if I missed anything and, sure enough, I did:

There are no balance or fader controls, no equalizer, etc. You get 25 watts to 4 speakers and a single line out to hook up your subs or amps or whatever. Fixed in firmware 1.0.9

Ok, so where is Firmware 1.0.9 and how does one go about installing the firmware?!?!?!?!

We have instructions on how to flash Red's ROM but nothing about firmware...
[Android Head-Units] renedis:
Firmware 1.0.9 is the same as rom 10.0.9.

To get balance/fader control to work you need a MCU update to version V26 and rom/firmware 1.0.9

[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
I think he's talking about using the 'Navi' function of the SWC/IR/Panel from Key Editor. To my knowledge, that is one more piece of non-functional Bonovo Code.

They define a Keycode for that 'event'. But I don't think there is anywhere in their code that actually tried to launch an app when that key is pressed. I suspect this is left-over/re-used code from some other unit/function.

If you play around with some of those button assignments in the KeyEditor app, you'll find more than one that's like this.

My suggestion for the time being is to use the Navigation soft button (NavBar). I don't know if iGo responds to the Intent system that I designed (See earlier posts about how to copy/modify my helper apps if it doesn't). I know that Waze, Maps, Co-Pilot, and Here all respond. I also created a helper app for Navitel.
[Android Head-Units] leonkernan:
There is code in there to handle a navi keycode:

frameworks_base/policy/src/com/android/internal/policy/impl/PhoneWindowManager.java

I didn't dig through the whole thing to check the keycode is actually properly defined however...

case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BONOVO_NAVI:
//Log.d(TAG, "============== PhoneWindowManager:KEYCODE_BONOVO_NAVI");
if(down){
Intent naviIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN, null);
naviIntent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_APP_MAPS);
naviIntent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK | Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_RESET_TASK_IF_NEEDED);
mContext.startActivityAsUser(naviIntent, UserHandle.CURRENT);
}
break;

Got it installed and working in my Jeep Patriot, have the latest XDAuto and v46 MCU installed. Today music was skipping and pausing and the whole system was lagging like crazy. Tried to figure out what was causing it and couldn't. Anyone have any ideas? I do have xposed installed but only one module right now. Got a 64gb samsung evo sd card formatted to fat32 as well.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
Do you have your phones bluetooth linked to the head units bluetooth? Does the "skipping" and pausing happen when your phone generates some kind of audio?
[Android Head-Units] DiGi91:
No phone linked at all. Skipping happens when playing music. It seems like the CPU gets bogged down and then it tries to play "catch up" I'm using Shuttle+ as my media player of choice.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
I've never experienced anything like that, are you cracking passwords in the background or something?
[Android Head-Units] DiGi91:
Lmfao nope. At first I thought it was the media scanner doing work in the background on the 40gb of music I have but I checked and it's all done so I have no idea.
[Android Head-Units] ChrisK-WA:
What radio app are you using? Is it Gonemad? I installed MCU v46 today, and then tried out Gonemad. When I did, I was having the same issue of cutting it out or crashing. I deleted the app and went back to Apollo.
[Android Head-Units] DiGi91:
You mean music app? I'm using shuttle+, I have tried poweramp as well and had the same problem. MCU V46 as of tonight.
[Android Head-Units] Bokomaru:
Interesting that two people are having a similar issue and are also running MCU v46. Have you tried using v40 or v41. I haven't had time to try out v46 yet. In theory, it's possible that v46 is sending a lot more data across the serial channel that the android box doesn't know how to handle yet and it's causing the cpu to stay busy (since a lot of the handling is in the kernel)
[Android Head-Units] Totoix:
Yes it was the steering wheel button I was talking about.

In my previous android HU, there was an option in the settings to select the default navigation application. Is it possible to implement something like this? Is it possible for xdAuto's next releases to support this?
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
Well at least they put code in there. Unfortunately it doesn't work :) If you remember all the discussions about the intent system on the navbar, Android does not enforce these concepts. I decided to quickly tear apart a recent Google Maps apk and look at the manifest. Found this:

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER"/>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.APP_MAPS"/>
</intent-filter>

So one would think that at least Maps would launch with their code. I think the lack of 'DEFAULT' in the definition is what is holding it back. Seems like this was the problem with Torque not responding to my Intent system as well.

Please go back through this thread and read up on how the Navbar/Intent system works.

I want to avoid hard coding app launches like that. I prefer to use the Android Intent system as it was designed. While Bonovo's code above does not work, they were on the right track! It just so happens that No one is using the APP_MAPS as they should (which is all together another story).
[Android Head-Units] leonkernan:
The only time i've seen that sort of thing is when it's indexing a lot of new music on the sd card. Might be because i've got a 1gb box though.
[Android Head-Units] Totoix:
As far as I understand from what you said, the apps that includes APP_MAPS and DEFAULT in intent should start?
[Android Head-Units] jkchr1s:
On mcu v40 and v41, mine does the same thing occasionally. I assume it is viper4android being installed with the highest quality setting by default. It's definitely the cpu lagging behind the audio. Mine has done it since the initial install of xdauto up through the current version.

I tried to uninstall the viper driver through the app and reinstall with normal quality, but it never actually removed the driver installed by xdauto.

I never investigated further because it may skip once every 5-10 minutes. Play Music was the worst offender skipping several times per song. It seems worse streaming music over the internet than playing music off the SD.

I'm willing to bet reducing the viper4android quality driver would resolve the issue.
[Android Head-Units] kamhunt:
I don't understand what you do not like the app http://4pda.ru/forum/dl/post/6223277/navi_button.apk it just performs the function you are asking!!!!!

the perfect solution at the moment +))) or maybe I misunderstood the gist of your problem ?
[Android Head-Units] isthisadagger:
Hi there,

i just received and installed my NU5261 in a Golf 6.

It came with 1.2.2 Stock, MCU V43.

Starting "Update Setting" crashed on start and trying to set my google account failed with "server not available", so i went ahead and flashed xdauto 1.1.6c using rockbatch 1.7 without flashing tuataras first and updated to 1.1.6c2 using twrp.

That fixed both issues. Thank you :D

In my case using only the mini usb cable to power the box when connecting it to a pc was not enough (tried 4 usb ports on 2 computers with 3 cables). I just got a bootloop (bootlogo would appear > screen go black > bootlogo again). External powersupply fixed that.

The included cables don't match the cables pictured in the manual. (if you want i can update the wiki with detailed photos from the cables i got, and how i connected them)

In my case my old radio had 2 connections. The quadlock cable with can bus and a dual fakra antenna cable.

Ignoring the manual i just connected the quadlock cable and gps (i don't have the fakra adapter yet).

When starting the ignition the radio turns on. Ac, door open, and parking radar is displayed and i can map the swc.

I hope this helps others facing the same problems.

There are still some issues i could not resolve though / don't know if it is the expected behavior:

1. When turning the ignition off the radio stays on. I have to manually press the physical powerbutton. After that the box stays on for the duration defined in update settings. How do i get it to turn off with the ignition?

2. When manually turning off the radio, the illumination of the hardware buttons stays on. Is there any way to prevent that? I was aiming for 24h standby but that would mean permanently illuminated buttons.

3. The restart app (2 black arrows in a circle) has a shutdown option. Using that the box just reboots for me.

4. I can only map my left swcs in the keyeditor. The swcs on the right are not recognized. Is that normal?

5. When my parking sensors are triggered, they are displyed but the display does not autmatically switch back when the car is clear. i have to use the back button on screen.

6. In update settings i can configure the color of the illumination of the hardware buttons. Changing it does nothing except turning the illu off and changing it again turns the illu on again. Color remains the same red.

Thank you in advance!

I'm on MCU v46 along with the newest XDAuto ROM and Viper4Android.

I'm not suffering from any of the audio stuttering issues that have been mentioned here.

I use PowerAmp and Google Play Music with no issues. I'm using a 32gb USB 2.0 device to hold my music.

I've never had a problem with audio skipping.
[Android Head-Units] DiGi91:
That's a very good point. After thinking about it I have a feeling that's what is causing it as well. If you turn Viper off is it better? I will try that on my way to work later. Hoping to get this thing running nice and smooth and then I will be very happy with this thing.

Edit: uninstalled the driver manually and installed the high quality one. Will report back later on if it fixed the issue.

That's a setup for when using an amplifier. I don't have an amplifier installed. And if i use this setup , the sound isn't so good. So maybe some has e different setup that they are using and that works great.
[Android Head-Units] usafle:
That's the same setup I use on my Tablet and cell phone and neither one of those have an Amplifier. ;)

Your biggest "change" will be in selecting whichever convolver you decide to use. That will have the most impact on how your music sounds. My suggestion is to play the same song over and over while switching convolvers so this way you know which one your ear likes best.

Otherwise, all the other settings for V4A stay the same across the board.
[Android Head-Units] gohigher123:
I already tried that :) but the sound was weird :). For the moment i don't use viper anymore. Instead i use the equalizer settings and the bass and trebble settings in poweramp. And that plays very well. But i just wanted to now because every one speaks of viper4android , but for me it's not working like i expected. :)
