I added my export file to this thread. Feel free to import it in Tasker.

For this to be happen, you need some additional tasks.

Please use the Tasker Udserguide and tons of Tasker videos in youtube to learn how to start and stop apps. You may need to work with intents to stop these apps secure without killing them. --> Poweramp

I don´t use any of these apps you are writing about, so I only could give a raw overview.

I have standard coax male connector (Motorola type)

And this adapter IEC to MCX

And the this USB dongle: EzTV645 USB DVB-T & SDR Receiver FC0013 & RTL2832U, PAL Antenna, RTLSDR EzTV 645

Does anyone know what adapter i need between the coax and iec? I want to try to use my standard antenna as DAB.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
You can buy splitters that do the job for you but they wont wok if you have an OEM booster in your antenna.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
I live in Norway, we are shutting down am/fm in the whole country this year and want everyone over to DAB... So it would have been great to get dab working in my car :) Why will oem booster not work?
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Yes I heard what Norway are doing, its madness because DAB sound quality is not as good as FM.

Anyway I m not sure why, but if you look on ebay your ll see many adapters that get a DAB signal from a standard antenna but they all say they wont work if you have an OEM booster.
[MTCB Hardware Development] rigattoni:
Oha... this is too much one-sided posted, sorry.

It really depends on the car.

A lot of cars with an active antenna filter out the upper frequencies, so there is no possibility to get DAB with the OEM antenna. That´s wright so far.

To fix this you need to install another antenna socket without filter or a regular DAB antenna on the roof.

If the frequencies are not filtered out by the booster, you can use only a few splitter which can work with active antennas. This is one which afaik works with most Mitsubishi and roof antenna.

But you need to know that sometimes the input level to the receiver is too high, so that you need to damp the level to have a good reception.

...and why should the quality of FM should be better than DAB?

With DAB you don´t have noise and most of the radio stations go back from manipulating the stream, at least in Germany, the radio stations deliver a good quality.... and probably a minor group hears HiFi in his car.

For home HiFi... I fully agree, but not in a car. ;)
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Because DAB+ is mp4 which uses a lossy compression, sure you dont get noise, (here in the UK you dont get noise on FM either) FM is FULL quality. Its a bit like CD v mp3 - mp3s sound ****e cos theyre lossily compressed, CDs sound much better cos theyre full quality. Sadly theres now a whole generation thats grown up with poor sound quality mp3 and mp4 codecs so theyre used to it. Its strange that when it comes to video over the last 20 years the quality has got better and better - SD, HD, 4K, 8K etc, but sound quality has gone in the other direction.

Also here in the UK we only get DAB, not DAB+ which uses the ancient mp2 codec, also a lossy compression method, thats very inefficient as well, meaning our DAB stations are squeezed into even less bandwidth for even worse quality, and therefore is even worse than DAB+

radioplayer

has anyone tried the radioplayer app with their tuner? apparently it supports dab using the adaptor in a new lg phone, wondered if it works with any other tuners.
[MTCB Hardware Development] nFiniti:
I have the same Unit, Audio Quality is great, even without an antennae it gets great signal.

It fails for me.

Does anyone have a good app like the DAB+ App from Joying that can connect to one of the DAB+DVB+FM USB Dongles for FM Radio? I live in the USA, SDR Touch is not a good app for in car use. WaveSync is even worse. I've been searching for the past few years for a nice looking app to get FM Radio with my SDR Dongle. But nothing so far beats SDR Touch and its not designed correctly for In Car Use.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
I have an Toyota RAV4 2002, I connected my stock roof active antenna to my dongle (coax -> din to ISO adapter -> iec female to iec male -> usb dongle) . It finds all available stations, and plays sound, but its really on and off with the sound. Sound dissapears, and come back for 5 seconds and dissapears again. I am using det wavesink app, it shows signal strength is about 50%. I also tried the antenna that followed the dongle and exactly same results. Other dab radios and cars with dab standard works fine in the area i am in. Do you think a splitter will work for me?
[MTCB Hardware Development] rigattoni:
There are 3 possibilities...

Check the power connection. You need more than 500mA for the dongle.

Check your antenna... The antenna should be at least ~40cm long

What we know is, that Wavesink has no function implemented to reduce any over modulation as it is in a good app.... That means that you may need to reduce the modulation by a SAT damping regulator (or may be 2). I don´t know the exact English wording... but you need to search for something like that: http://www.ebay.de/itm/like/130610568324?lpid=106&chn=ps&ul_noapp=true
[MTCB Hardware Development] kamcel:
just been having another browse for which dongle to buy and try next as had poor luck with wavesink and i have found these on ebay:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DAB-Digit...089553?hash=item4b104decd1:g:ITgAAOSw241YgRrG

do you think it will be overly different from

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/XTR...RNy85orFy1-2uV-FBRX8GmTuRNFJsQCmyAaApiO8P8HAQ

which is the other one i was considering.
[MTCB Hardware Development] ktibor69:
I tried your solution. But the script doesn't work.

I didn't download .xml, because my browser only open this. Can you upload in .zip file?

How can I import this xml in Tasker app?

When I wrote the script in the if action I didn't choose RTL-sdr driver from list, because I haven't found. I think the red raws means error.

I have found the right cursor position:
[MTCB Hardware Development] rigattoni:
Just use the right context menu and choose ...save file as... and don´t use the direct download.

After import you just need to adapt the sleep depending on your hardware. Some are faster and some are a bit slower... and of course the exact x/y coordinates of the OK button.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

Both receiver are only usable with the written radio.

The first one is only for Erisin radios, the second one is just for Xtrons radios. I would not assume that they are working on different hardware solutions...

I buyed this one, but it did not arrive yet.... It´s still stuck in custom since a couple of days... Hope it will arrive soon.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Bows89:
Does anyone know if the joying DAB adaptor will work on the older style 4.4 android headunit?

I've got a xtrons unit and it never came with DAB as an option so want to add it but I'd like to be able to control the app via my steering wheel controls.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Depends how it connects, probably if its via USB, you dont have an Xtrons - theyre a seller only, they mainly sell Klyde units, to check go to settings/about device.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
So I kind of have a working system now. Using my stock active antenna, splitter, ezcap dongle and wavesink. DAB works fine in speed (tested up to 70km/h) where there are not many buildings around. Where theres is more buildings/bushes the audio come and goes a bit. The signal always shows about 50% with sound or not. FM channels shows 100% signal strength. I think i need a dab antenna, but i dont understand why a dab roof antenna will work any better than the roof antenna that the car came with from the factory? They are about same height, looks the same and both are active. For example this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/201792026125
[MTCB Hardware Development] Pinkpanther9:
Last year they wrote on their homepage it would only work with the new Sophia units together, not sure if that changed since I've bought it.

I've bought that thing from Joying (for a Sophia unit) exactly because I wanted a properly implemented solution. To make it short, I wouldn't buy it anymore. Far too expensive, it does not work together with Wavesink, only withe their app, changing channels does not work with the steering wheel controls, the app doesn't have memory presets, only the full list of received channels. It has poor reception even with a good car antenna (the antenna they delliver with the stick is just a bad joke), if the DAB-app is not in the foreground it shuts down the sound all 10-20 minutes, I then need to get the app shortly in the foreground again to get the sound playing again (I sand them detailled error descriptions and videos and even after nearly 30 mails over 2 months they weren't able to solve that problem, they just asked for more videos showing what I allready sand them...) If it has poor reception (what happens to be quite often) it does not just shut down the sound like other adapters do, it first start with squeaky quite loud glitches (very anoying over time)...

I've been using it on a 30 day trip from Switzerland to Norway and back, well, not exactly, after 3 days I bought one of these Tiny audio adapters what -unlike the Joying adapter- works just perfectly (at least in Norway, Danmark and Switzerland, Germany still has poorly DAB-coverage in some regions, Sweden has no DAB at all).

In my opinion, after these experiences, this thing is just an overpriced poorly implemented piece of crap, exactly what I wanted to avoid with buying everything from one place...

I set the ponter position, and increase the wait time for 5sec, but the script doesn't work.

Your OK window is in 1430 710 dot. Which resolution of your display?

I have Ford Mondeo 2011. I had only FM/AM amplifier for aerial for genuine Sony AM/FM HU. The aerial is integrated the rear windshield. I had replaced this aerial amplifier to FM/AM/DAB. And the reception was become better.

Old AM/FM amplifier:

And the new AM/FM/DAB amplifier:
[MTCB Hardware Development] rigattoni:
Mine is a 800x480 too and I set the DPI to 420dpi.... but it works too, if I set the DPI to 240 as original. It works on both items I updated. There is a RK3288 and the S905x which are working fine.

Sorry, but I don´t know why the script should not work on your side... I´m not able to know what´s in there.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Johny DJ:
Hello guys, was planning to buy a dab module for my Klyde unit but cannot decide which to go USB or Klyde one

I found 2 usb compatible for android:

Link 1

Link 2:

Klyde:

Which is better for you (stable etc...) USB one or direct (back) connection to HU (Klyde link)?
[MTCB Hardware Development] ktibor69:

[MTCB Hardware Development] kamcel:
i have ordered

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Radio...8942fe&pid=100011&rk=1&rkt=12&sd=322396089553

it should hopefully arrive within a week or two and i will let you know how i get on, i went for that one as it mentions android 6.0, my unit is 5.1.1 but i figured since the post mentions 6.0 it might be a newer unit than the others you linked which i had also been looking at.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Johny DJ:
Ok then I will wait a little more so you could tell about yours...

I think that if klyde dab is kitkat and lollipop compatible it should also be for 6.0. and you don't lose usb port...

The only difference I noticed there is dab and dab+. Probably + is the newer one...
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
6.0 ? who has 6.0 on an MTCB/C unit ?

DAB = mp2, DAB+ = mp4
[MTCB Hardware Development] Johny DJ:
So then it will be better to add dab+ not klyde one because its just dab because of the quality...

No no nobady doesnt have 6.0 on Mtcb (yet) I hope.

I noticed that latest some 6.0 are just modified kitkat ones....
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
I have not seen any MTCB 6.0 at all, even modded KK 6.0, those are different unit. MTCB will probably not get 6.0 unfortunately.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Tumke32:
Yes i have one working on android 4.4. reception is pretty good with the original aerial.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Johny DJ:
Probably lollipop is the last system for upgrade and also december one because they're probably into MTCD units to sell upgrade ones...

I was looking for upgrade but noone can provide PX5 chip for out units, because its mtcb and not D.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Yes, PX5 is MTCD, even Klyde versions (which makes you wonder why they bothered making the MTCC MCUs), so SoM upgrade cant be done.

I was hoping that 6.0 might make it to the RK3188 units because, even after they came out 2 years ago, a 4.4.4 upgrade was made available for the older RK3066 units, but nothing has appeared, not yet at least.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Johny DJ:
Was also looking for som with 2Gb ram but I think that has to be done just manually...

I hope that they will make 6.0 because there is quite a lot Mtcb units with rk3188 out there.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
I hope they do, but I dont think they will :(
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
I have also ordered this DAB+ box and it arrived yesterday.

Works well with my RK3188 with Android 4.4.4

The only thing you need, is the app which is normally pre-installed on 5.1 and 6.0 devices.

[MTCB Hardware Development] skezza:
I've noticed a lot of these units come with the DAB App pre-installed. One question, will any DAB adapter work? I notice the one in [MENTION=262731]Icefeldt[/MENTION] is quite chunky, whereas the OP uses a box the size of a tiny dongle.

Is it hardware specific?
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
You can not use ANY random DAB adapter.

It has to have specific hardware inside, which works with this app.

But you are correct, that there is a "box version" and a "stick version".
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
I have a fully working DAB system now with excelent signal quality. And would just share my setup.

Signal streangth is always in the 80-100% range, and SNR is at 8-17dB.

I am using:

- Joying android unit with newest system update and wavesink app

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/271961672366

- EZCAP FC0013 & RTL2832U Stick

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160887302789

- Adapter that connects roof antenna to stick (IEC MCX)

- DAB/FM Roof antenna

https://www.torshovbil.no/dab-fm-takantenne

This is an active antenna but I am using it as an passive, because the signal is much better without power connected to it. Not sure why, but it works great. Maybe the power is more for the FM part, but I am only using DAB anyway. Also had to drill the hole in my roof bigger, from 16 to 20mm :eek:
[MTCB Hardware Development] skezza:
Ahh, so the app that comes loaded with the Head Units require that box version that you bought then? I'll get it ordered then. I would prefer to use the pre-loaded app rather than one of these ones off the PlayStore..... with no disrespect of course to them, they're probably better but there we go.

Interesting. Out of curiosity (and this isn't a dig), why didn't you just convert your OEM antenna into an active one, using something like this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPLITTER-...376065?hash=item5d3d4c6801:g:pSUAAOSw-ndTmwYp
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
My OEM antenna is active, and I bougth this splitter and tried before I got a new antenna: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302128009965

The sound was just dissapering av signal was bad.
[MTCB Hardware Development] skezza:
Excellent. So do you have two antennas or one?
[MTCB Hardware Development] Major Stuen:
One :)
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
No, the DAB app that comes with it woks only with DAB boxes specifically for these devices.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Oberbergler:
Does someone have the Xtrons DAB+ stick (I think it is the same like the Joying because they use the same app)? Has it a good reception? My Klyde DAB+ box has a very good reception, but I would like to buy the new Xtrons PX5 HU :D
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
See the box I bought (which is "officially not supported" by my radio manufacturer)

But as 95% of the chinese android car radios use the same hardware/software, the pre-installed app does not differ in most cases.

---------- Post added at 07:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:52 AM ----------

Sadly not possible for every car.

Depends on your built-in antenna if all/any DAB+ frequencies can be received.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
No, there are 2 types of pre-installed DAB app and 2 types of add on DAB module.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
Can you link to them?
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
No because the fileserver is down at the moment, there may be a link in this thread though, what unit do you have ?
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
"Erisin" MTCB RK3188 Unit with Android 4.4.4

Was just for my curiosity.

Cause couldn't recall any other app except the one I have.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
No you dont, Erisin is a seller, the 2 or 3 letters after "MTCB" will tell you what unit you have.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
That's why i wrote Erisin in quotation marks...

But as the model of my device doesn't provide any value to the previous discussion, I'm not going to elaborate further.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
Ii DOES add value because it depends which type you have as to what DAB app it comes with, not to mention the fact that most people quote their version in these forums anyway as it often helps with problems.
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
If you would have read my previous posts carefully, I already stated that I did NOT have an DAB app pre-installed on my Android 4.4.4 device.
[MTCB Hardware Development] typos1:
It will either be in the OEM folder or if you have an older version it wont be there, but what unit you have is STILL relevant because it will determine which DAB unit yours is compatible with.
[MTCB Hardware Development] pcmender2005:
Typos1 only asked you about your MTCB as the 2 or 3 letters tell us who made your unit. as you are asking a question we need to know who made your unit so we can help you and point you in the correct direction with your app. My unit is a MTCC-KLD9-V2.98
[MTCB Hardware Development] Icefeldt:
He stated, that he knows 2 different DAB apps.

I asked If he can link to them.

My unit model is irrelevant for this question.

And my DAB adapter + DAB app works perfectly.

Therefore I do not have any problems.

I was just curious about a second app, as I did not recall seeing such a variety of dab apps.
[X Style (Pure) Original Android Development] JackpotClavin:
Let's get a ROM building thread working for the devs working on the project.

Using my source, you can compile a booting CM12.1 ROM

Working so far:

Boots

Audio

Camera/Camcorder

Video playback

Phone

4G LTE

Sensors

Not working:

Everything else (probably)

Device: https://github.com/JackpotClavin/android_device_moto_clark

Vendor: https://github.com/JackpotClavin/android_vendor_motorola_clark

Kernel: https://github.com/MotorolaMobilityLLC/kernel-msm, branch lollipop-5.1.1-release-clark

Things that I know are missing/broken,

1. I'm missing a bunch of /etc/firmware files relating to audio. As far as I know it has no effect on in call audio as it doesn't work if they are all pushed there or not.

2. Bluetooth will continuously force close, so when you extract the zip you build in recovery, you will have to rename /system/app/Bluetooth/Bluetooth.apk to Bluetooth.bak

3. You will have to set your preferred network type to LTE to get a radio signal

I spent tonight setting up a build environment, I want to at least get CM12.1 booting on my device so I can judge it's performance vs stock Android, bugs or not.
