3 Questions - Internet Radio / Next Launcher / Screen Lock

I'll start with the most important question. Since I have private info on my device and the car of course can be stolen (currently we're experiencing a lot of thefts here in the region because of the politics of the Queen of Berlin)

I wanted to have a screen lock on my device. I tried this google android manager and it locked me out of my device! couldn't get back in.

So although I had Malyask firmware running for almost 2 years stable (yes, never had to change anything) now I had to re flash the firmware anyway so why not latest? Which is faster I must admit!

But, question remains:" how can I have the car device to LOCK on startup or screen saver and first unlock after I entered a PIN?" No such setting in the settings menu as far as I can see.

The 2nd question, on my older firmware I used the next launcher. I knew in the old firmware under settings I could change the launcher I wanted to use. Now I don't see it anymore. So where is this option

to use other launchers or where is the next launcher generally speaking?

the 3rd question. In the old Malyask firmware there was this nice cool internet radio program (can't remember the name though) does anyone know the name and how to get it?

Thank you very much!

Also, the first page info needs to be updated. It says toque etc is included in the firmware. But I don't have it on my end! Doesn't matter since I bought it in the google play store some while ago

anyway. But it should be updated in the main thread anyway.

Thank you all for reading my questions and for the possible answers I might get.

iGo online traffic

After being a fan of TomTom for more than 10 years I switched to iGo 2 years ago. It's much better than TomTom for my needs (much better not as in the software is better generally, but as in specifically for my wishes, don't want to get into arguments of pros and cons as that's not the issue here)

But the iGo has this feature of online traffic and never uses it. As if the software doesn't use the internet connection of the Malyask firmware/Android device.

Anyone know of a reason orf how to fix it?

I changed in

But that didn't work (there should be h^t*t*p:slashslash in front of the links but I'm not allowed to post links)

Already got this to work myself. Just added a few diffrent lines and some licenses and now it's working.

Now i have 4.4.4 rom installed but the originalrom was 5.1.1. So i tested first 5.1.1. maly but this rom was very slow with some apps perhaps of the tiny ram of 1GB. 4.4.4 runs very fast. tommorrow i will try a fullwipe again :fingers-crossed:

Hello, Thank you for your reply and help.

Hm ok, i testing, but the "original" Android Version is 4.4.4 (see here: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/KIA-...layer-GPS/32309517533.html?isOrig=true#extend)

I need the factory firmware, Where do I get these?

Is this the factory Rom: http://huifei.fs-fileserver.de/content/firmware/KK%204.4.4%20Quadcore%20/KLD%204.4.4/1024x600/KLD%201024x600%2020150810%20Factory/?

The MCU: 2.77

thx

[MTCB Software Development] matt1981m:
If your device is a KLD2 device the most up-to-date MCU I believe is 2.81... I am going on memory on that... The ROM you just indicated is not necessarily the ROM that was shipped with your unit from the factory. To those who may not understand the difference between the MCU & the ROM, think of it as the BIOS & OS for a computer. You may have a Dell Inspiron 5100 and I may have a Lenovo B22. We may both have the same "version" of Windows installed, but the BIOS will most likely be different. Then you add in the fact that the exact configuration of the operating system will vary (different programs, etc). Based on the file name of the room you just mentioned, that was from August or October of 2015 (20150810 could be YYYYMMDD or YYYYDDMM format, but is most likely October 8th, 2015). The exact version of the core programs on that is "frozen" in time and won't update with performance fixes, etc. The updates this ROM and others provide allow you to not only customize and tweak what may not have been possible with a "stock" ROM, but gives you updated versions of the "core" programs that are essential for your head unit (i.e. radio, DVD player, etc).
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
No, most KLD2 devices can run the latest MTCC MCU - KLD9 v2.98 (which allows saving of radio presets).
[MTCB Software Development] matt1981m:

Hello guys. I have a rk3066 kgl4 unit with latest malaysk firmware. Everything was allright for 1 week. Now without touching anything the buttons sound came back. If i switch it off it comes back after reboot. What can be the problem.

Where is this beep sound stocked?

Updated to the lastest version now (RK2188 1024 - V23) coming from an old Malaysk version from 2015.

[MTCB Software Development] hode2:
Hey thanks for feedback :D

I understand matt1981m, thx.

Ok, do you have a link to KLD9 v 2.98? typos1?

Final question:

I should now update the MCU (KLD9 v 2.98 what typos1 mean or KLD2 v.2.81 factory?) and then set to factory reset and then update to the latest version of malaysk?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Update to KLD9 v2.98, its on the fileserver in my signature in the MCU section, you can flash it at the same time as the latest version of [MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION]'s ROM, no need for factory reset.
[MTCB Software Development] Boodro1:

With the Februar RO is have the following error:

After some minutes of use (sometimes more sometimes less), Android mentioned that ViperFX is dangerous for the system and kills it.

After this, I can even open ViperFX (Settings always crashing).

The only way is to reinstall ROM.

Any idea?
[MTCB Software Development] ankerede:
I've got a 2 ideas for new functions:

1. Pandora support for screenclock, so you can see artist and song

2. Speedmeter plugin for status bar, so instead of having a clock in the middle of the status bar (or left or right corner)you can see your GPS speed. I think it could be handy as googlemaps isn't showing any speed

I'm using this great app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=asd.vector.indicators

This app was developed for googlemap. But it's working under Poweramp too:

Unfortunately, under MTC stock app like MTCradio it does't work. Anybody can modify this app or knows any solution, that works under MTCradio?

I have 4.4.4 ROM January 2017 in RK3188. 1024x600. It works very well.

I want to install the additional Red Color theme (RED KLD).

According the Malaysk instructions, I need to delete old versions of MTCBlueTooth, MTCDVD, MTCMovie, MTCMusic and MTCRadio, and copy the RED_KLD apk in folder System/app.

After these changes, and if I don't like the new theme, Can I restore the default theme by replacing again the apk's with the old versions?

Sorry but I don't understand really how to install a Theme. I have found those instructions but at the same time Malaysk wrote:

Not sure if the RedKLD theme is already in the ROM installation.

In such case, How can I change the Theme?
[MTCB Software Development] pcmender2005:
No need to delete the stock apps just rename them something like this MTCCBluetooth.apk.old so if youdont like the red ones just delete them and remove the .old then reboot
[MTCB Software Development] Treu55:
ok, thanks :)

Btw, I cannot change the second boot logo with the Android animation. I choose another logo with Factory settings +126 but it doesn't work.

There is some special change to do with January 2017 version?

, forget it. I have found the solution:

[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Dunno, install a screen density app or an app that tells you info about your device and see.
[MTCB Software Development] matt1981m:
that isn't the case... the directory has been removed/modified/renamed/etc... it is a 404 message... the server is responding, just not finding what we are looking for...it could also be a content config issue...for instance, since it is an apache server (linux), the .htaccess file in "webroot" (also referred to as html or public_html with some panels) directory could have scripting that prevents the server from handling the request properly (in essence trying to change the path to a malformed location).

I have been managing servers for over 20 years. If we need a new place to stick the info, or even for a redundancy backup, let me know. Bandwidth isn't an issue...
[MTCB Software Development] scorillo_ro:
I don't want to start a flame, but have you tried to access http://huifei.fs-fileserver.de and translate the message? You can get a 404 if the domain name is pointing you to a different server which doesn't have those files...

I have done it and the different sections works except the launcher in itself. I cannot get the main screen of the theme:

I have not activated any additional X-posed modules as I have read that there is not need in this ROM January 2017 version. That's right?

I have read that there is an option to change the launcher in Settings -> Display, although I don't have this option :eek:

It is necessary to activate any Xposed module?

Can someone point me in the direction of where to download the latest firmware I think it was Mar version? It appears the links don't work :(
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Go to 1st page.

Locate your device (RK3066 or RK3188)

Locate your Screen Resolution (800x480 or 1024x600)

Follow the link to new page.

Locate the month/date/year and follow that link.

Make sure you:

Understand that the ROM could make your unit no longer function if you do not follow the instructions

Follow instructions, read them and read them again.

Check you FACTORY SETTINGS (126) and copy or take images or pictures of every page.

Follow any new README text. READ everything.

If you decide to return to FACTORY ROM, make sure you have a copy.

If your radio came with your car, it can have special APPS that might not be in the ROM. Special being you can turn on your seat warmer or cooler, This will not be in the new ROM from Developers.

Thus, you will loose that function FOREVER, unless you can get the original ROM with it. Or, get from google playstore an apk extractor and extract the special APPS and save them on USB or something.

Malaysk's ROM also updates the recovery so you WILL have that option if you flash it.

Has anyone have any luck resolving the loss of the volume control knob? It has gotten 400% worse with the newest rom (Just put it on). It happens now 4 out of 5 times. I'm going to try to see if any particular app or xposed module causes it but maybe someone else has done this and figured it out. I read from someone that this may have also occurred w/ the stock rom but I didn't use the stock rom enough to know.

Thanks

Random Volume up on its own

Hi guys,

I'm using the latest version of the ROM for RK3066 and it works fine except one thing - the unit randomly volumes UP on its own. It never volumes DOWN, only UP. Regardless whether the vehicle is stopped or in motion - its totally random. Does it in radio and when playing from a USB drive.

I've installed the latest version of the ROM and see if that would fix it - nope. I've done a factory reset - nope.

Do you have any ideas/solutions to this and is anyone else experiencing such random volume up?

P.S: used the search thread option but it's a strange issue and couldn't find anything related, so apologies if this is a known problem.

Thanks,

Nick
