Weather data is not in the GPS data. Wifi will connect to the service and update using the location.

GPS is only to set the location of the head unit.

GPS will update it location for maps. If you use waze or Google maps, and you loose wifi, the map picture and info will no longer update.

Sorry about the confusion on the boot logo.

Malay does the rom as he like it. He asks if you like what he has done to donate to help.

The boot logo is like a finger print of his work. It makes it stand out that what is loading is his work. You understand what I'm saying?

It will be up to you to edit it or remove it or change it. All you need to do is search for it. Probably not in this part of his forum since this is solely for his rom only.

I'm sure if you where a developer, and you had a logo or alike, if someone altered it, you be unhappy.

Right.. I remember the day if an Intro was alter, it formatted the file drive location..
[MTCB Software Development] Marius B:
I appreciate all hard work that make Malay. Is my friend .

I don't have problem with his logo.

Whatever I have some problem with this latest ver sion.

I can't install mtcscreeper. Recived error when started .

And 2 can't save apn setting for 3g modem.

My 3g USB modem is zte mf710m.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
As [MENTION=4358937]Oldpapa49[/MENTION] says, weather cant be updated with GPS, GPS is just for location . . . well and for time and date because it needs time to calculate location and in recent builds the time and date on the unit can be set via GPS, finally. But not weather that can only be done with a Wifi or 3G connection.
[MTCB Software Development] bsavoir22:
You mention changing the first boot logo, which is what i was talking about. You said you wanted to change the first boot logo. I was pointing out that there is someone on these forums who has already posted a way to do this.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Ok, I give up.. I will point you the way young man..

Go to the main "Android Auto"

In the search are, type "Boot Logo"

You will be given a few choice.. 1 being a service and the other a guide.

See, I was able to do this by searching. HINT!

Now this has turn into a waste because it is not related to this topic. No more on this, stay with the topic of Malay ROM please.

And Sorry, just tired..
[MTCB Software Development] bsavoir22:
This is not for me I was giving info to someone else. Just FYI, there are 2 boot logos, 1 is NOT animated (Malay Mod) and the 2nd IS animated (Toyota, Ford or whatever the choice you pick). Someone was asking how to change the first boot logo, which is Malaysk's own picture. The one your referring to is the animated one and was not being discussed get your facts straight before jumping the gun. The first screen can be changed as [MENTION=2070494]Goose247[/MENTION] has done it and I was pointing it out.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Basically this happens with "reply", keeping it going.. Did I mention I was tired. And the list is: https://xdaforums.com/search/forum/3833?query=boot logo

The 1st one.. Having choices. And I will say I'm sorry that it kinda linked to you. I will try to drink more caffeine and reply to the correct person.

Hello, I have done the installation of your malaysk rom to 5.1.1 1025x600 lollipop radio(hotaudio whit 2.0.1a MCU)and he is beautiful ! Nice job!

But after rebooting, I had to activate some Xposed modules, that normal?

Another question, how to disable the SCREENLOCK? I search everywhere in setting but I don't find it.

Thank you
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
This is for Mal' 4.4.4 rom,

For MTCB/MTCC devices, go here: https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...rom-malaysk-roms-lollipop-5-1-1-mtcb-t3394209

Mine only comes on if I click on the icon at top left of the screen (Malaysk ROM 25/1 /2017)
[MTCB Software Development] henv:
With older roms you could change it in settings. I dont know or in the latest rom its still in settings or in the statusbar.ini, because i thought there was a setting screen time out.

Cannot find any option for the screensaver in settings. Statusbar.ini only has the option to show or not show the screen saver button (true or false setting)

[MTCB Software Development] EagleSoldier:
Yes, you can change the time.

Go to the folder mtc-manager -> setting.ini

Edit the line for the time (200 is set as deffault).

So, is latest version good or not?

I have 10-11-2016 and is perfect.

Only that mostly my volume and fw/rw knobs are not working (only push function, not roll).
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
LockClock is in the main app folder. I'm going to guess you did something to remove it. I extracted mal's last 4.4.4 update file and that is the location.

I'm going to hate myself for asking this, Besides WIPE, did you Clean Cache?
[MTCB Software Development] Marius B:
I make wipe but is the same .

For another problem ?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Wipe and clear cache are 2 different settings in recover. When you flash the rom, you can either do it via SD card or USB with either no wipe or wipe.

Then below that is a clear cache. #6 position I think
[MTCB Software Development] Marius B:
Ok. I tried to put again.

[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
This apk has nothing to do with the copy of inernal_sd or external sd. It is in the APP folder in the folder SYSTEM of the device. It should of copied when the update.img was installed.

Using Root Explorer, look in root, system and should see app folder. That LockCLock should be in that location. I'm at work and not by the car, I look later to make sure on these steps.

Hi guys,

do you know why, with last release, meteo app doesn't take the change? I set my location but it doesn't update and show only minus simbols. GPS position is actived and connection is ok but id doesn't work. Thanks a lot
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Did you turn off RDS in factory settings?
[MTCB Software Development] Marius B:
yes
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
1. Did you enable Xposed

2. Did you copy per instructions of the downloaded file the folders from the downloaded extracted to Internal_SD and 1 folder to External_SD (GPS card)

3. Did you enable the Xposed modules that you required in the Xposed app.

4. Did you do WIPE and Clear Cache after you installed the ROM (Wipe as the step to install, Clear Cache after 1st stable boot?

5. Did you reread the instructions to make sure you understand what to do.

6. Did you search in this forum, this has been asked so many times, I have lost count!

---------- Post added at 03:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:36 PM ----------

I have not setup that part on my system because I have RDS on and my stations show mostly what I needed. Besides, I live in a valley surrounded by mountains and stations receptions are pretty bad.

Reason I use XM radio app
[MTCB Software Development] str1k3:
Yes to all. But, don't worry, if you don't want to give an answer, don't lost time! If my meteo app doesn't work, I look out the window. It's not a problem ;)

Is meteo the speedometer? are the 000 ghost? never saw ---
[MTCB Software Development] str1k3:
The speedometer works fine. The problem is on the meteo side. In meteo app it show moscow location but if I add a new location it doesn't update the screen in meteo app. Speedometer widget will be the second step
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Weather app.. I do not know Meteo App, what it is.. Sorry.. American.. Well, Canadian, ..Well both

You are talking about the weather app.. Ahh, ok, the app that was supposed to work using gps to automatically set weather does not work.. That was his 1st release in JAn, the one on the 26th or the last went back to Yahoo with 2 other choices.
[MTCB Software Development] str1k3:
It's the app where you can set your location to show in speedometer widget.
[MTCB Software Development] pa.ko:
That App base a wired behaviour.

It doesn't work for all locations. It doesn't use true GPS location to get weather. Rather it uses GPS to get supposed name of the location (settlement name) and then tries to get weather from provider using that name.

So, if the name of the settlement is not retrieved correctly OR provider does not know for name of the settlement then you get no weather.

It also depends of selected provider. You can choose Yahoo, Open Weather or Foreca, and you will be surprised that maybe some of them work and the others don't for particular location. And even if you find one that works, and you move around, it may stop working on some other location...

So first try to change provider and see if it supports your location. For me, it even was problematic in large city which is hard to believe providers don't recognise. But then I noticed (in automatically detected location name) that location-name provider service is not returning name of the city but name of the city part (municipality)! And thus Yahoo don't recognise location (it shows weather in similarly named equatorial town which is 'out of the window's obviously wrong).

So the mechanism of the weather app is really unreliable.

I wish devs really changed poor Chinese improvised way and adopted true GPS based location service API call but I suspect they just patched bad Chinese code to work when most of the time and places...
[MTCB Software Development] KaMu1219:
You have to provide the frequencies always with two digits after the separator, e.g. "105.50=Digi FM", "98.00=Kiss FM".
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
You are correct about having ###.## the last 2 digits have to be entered. No radio station 98. or 98, but 98.00

He did not say it, but every entry in Malaysk example has last 2 digits after the .

Since I never used it, I would not know about it..

[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
The radios use CDMA type of devices if I recall. T-Mobile is GMA. So it should not connect. I have T-Mobile and use their SyncUp Drive that plugs in to the OBD. Wifi and OBDII info.Powers up when I start car, tracks car etc.
[MTCB Software Development] Marius B:
for who have time i have a challenge.

photo instead of name for radio station.
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
For me, photos will take valuable memory, units if not FUSE have less 1 g mem, while fuse extends this max. Adding apps and other stuff takes away them memory.

I would rather have space for movies and songs than a icon image of the station.

Unless RDS has it embedded in its signal, but I think the RDS on the radio is limited
[MTCB Software Development] pa.ko:
I think these units and customised apps have too much graphics anyway. Design is legacy, like 3d buttons etc. It was modern 10-15 years ago and now days everyone knows it is unergonomic. Too much, too cluttered. It is not helping perifferal vision and fast and focused observation which is main point for auxiliary unit in car (as the eye on the road is supreme need not both eyes in Hu lurking for infotainment).

Well, most of the people don't have that understanding and most of them are considering HU UI as smartphone. They are neglecting main point that smartphone you use when you don't do anything else while HU you use while driving. Thus it is fundamentally different context and thus car industry is developing specific and ergonomic (simplistic) UI layout and design for infotainment systems.

Sorry for long and probably boring post. But I really hope someone will realise the direction in which development and customisation of those units should go. Too much time and effort is wasted around here with still having too many people feeling there is something missing. And the point is that filling missing is done through clearing too much clutter not adding more of it.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
I share your opinion about the UI, 3D buttons etc, but you cant say "should" like everyone has to do it your way, its Android, it very customisable, so the only "should" that should apply is that each user "should" have their unit in the way they want - if they want loads of clutter and 3D buttons, thats what they "should" have, if they dont, like you and I, then we should have no 3D buttons and simple displays.

[MTCB Software Development] pa.ko:
Well.... By 'should' I meant something more complex that just pushing my taste to everyone else. I'm not even thinking about that.

From legal point of view, the usage of device in car is subject to laws and regulations. And you know that using a mobile phone is illegal while driving? So it is not just free will or taste that governs usage.

And from some point of view there is also responsibility of producer not to build and allow irresponsible user to misuse device or tool. It is participating in risk of posing damage or injury to third person.

While here we are far away of legal challenges, as most of this area is not legally clear or defined in reality anyhow (it is more in domain of good business ethics and practice), I just appeal on developers and users to pay attention on ergonomy and safety beside pleasability.

But I don't expect too much attention to this boring subject in this vibrant community. Until someone hits windshield while poking on his HU vibrant UI while driving....

[MTCB Software Development] ozy.shigo:
Today I installed it and everything works great except my buttons (as in rom before) for volume (left) and fw/rw (right). Scroll is not working but push is working (left button = mute; right button = play/pause).

Also, statusbar height is weird.. like too small. And in maximized apps like chrome or waze, there is black thick horizontal line between statusbar and app (like statusbar is too short and pixels missing).

Its noticeable with my next launcher because I have set gradient statusbar from dark-orange to transparent because it matches bmw interior.

Edit: now I searched I found that its possibly connected with DPI.

What DPI value is set by default and which one is the best for rk3188 1024x600 resolution?

Tnx :)
[MTCB Software Development] NelinhoMarinus:

Does anyone know if its possible to make the status bar transparent ? That would make my setup perfect!

i removed the status bar intirely from the homescreen with apex launcher. And i open the apps in full screen mode with a xposed module. Looks nice. but when i open an app for the first time after boot it shows the status bar for a couple seconds before it actually goes to full screen mode. would be even better if i didnt get to see the status bar ever. for the rest its fine.

There are Roms that make this"feature" go away, so it is possible. I can't remember which one I had (maybe dsa's 5.1 ROM), but I could definitely stay on Waze while using the phone. Granted, my setup is a little different than most, in that I use my truck's Bluetooth. The head unit apparently senses that I'm on a call over canbus, and puts up an "OnStar" screen that I can't navigate away from until the call has ended. It's my main gripe with this radio!
