Ok thank you!
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
Yes, there is NO way.

Google hasn't released API to use Google maps navigation from external apps, and has no plans to release any.

Hi guys, any Idea why Car Launcher Pro won't open file explorer? I want to change th BG of a theme for one I downloaded but I get a black screen with a 'ok' button.

I also can't change the car logo, it never open my file explorer.

I tried downloading files by google and did not work.

My headunit is Android 9.

Guys what gallery app does car launcher pro use? I'm unable to upload backgrounds

Hi all, anyone know how to setup a pass code lock for car launcher? Need a way to make sure no one can play around when I send the car in
[Android Head-Units] mupe:
Does anyone else have the problem with non-working Google maps plugin in Car Launcher pro? Yandex maps plugin works normally, but Google maps shows just empty field with google logo on it.
[Android Head-Units] a3deroo:
Works just fine here
[Android Head-Units] Bob_Sanders:
Mine works fine too.
[Android Head-Units] mupe:
I thought so... I don't know where the problem is. Maybe some permissions, but I looked everywhere and didn't find an option related to this issue. If anyone knows, please tell. Thank you!
[Android Head-Units] Bob_Sanders:
Try clearing the cache
[Android Head-Units] mupe:
The device is brand new. Booted for the first time couple of days ago... but I'll give it a try, why not.
[Android Head-Units] strade:
Hi, did you manage to solve the problem. I am having the exact same issue. Tried everything with google maps but nothing, so i am using Yandex.
[Android Head-Units] mupe:
^^ No, I didn't. I decided to go on without the launcher completely. When I start the car, Waze starts automatically, and within it I can control deezer and tunein radio, which I use the most. So, I don't really need the launcher at all...
[Android Head-Units] Halvar1234:

[Android Head-Units] Bob_Sanders:
Works fine for me. Is your google maps up to date?
[Android Head-Units] Herceg89:
Yes, they are. I tried delete cache, but still same.

When I open google maps aplication everything works fine, but on home screen, widget of the navigation it's not working, when I switch to Yandex it's working
[Android Head-Units] Halvar1234:
On top of the standard theme there was a widget shows title and interpret of my actual music player. I used it for ma DAB Player. inadvertently i deleted it and now i cant find this widget. Where can i find this?

The second is. Is ir posible to move a widget to another place like it is normally done in android. Long tap on it and drag it to another place? Till ow i can only move it by change the size.

When i add a new page this page is allways on the left side. Hiw can i change this to the right side. Means to swipe to the right side instead of left
[Android Head-Units] parisisal:
Hi,

is there a widget that shows the altitude?
[Android Head-Units] Mfreund21:
So I downloaded naviradio+ because I saw through this thread that it was compatible with the audio widget on car launcher pro. It does pull into the widget but the weird thing is that if you play the radio first and switch to Spotify, the actual audio changes but the audio detail and cover art does not switch from the radio information to the Spotify information in the widget. However it works flawlessly with pandora. Any ideas why it doesn't update from radio to Spotify?
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
For this to work you need to ensure that Spotify pushes play information to standard notifications in app drawer (as it is the only way to get them from other apps). I assume that pandora and NavRadio+ do it, but spotify - not. Check that kind of notifications (it is called Media notification) for each player you use and want to have information in launcher.
[Android Head-Units] Mfreund21:
OK I'll have to check. The info for Spotify does pull into the widget overall, the issue only comes when I'm switching from navradio to Spotify. When I do that the information doesn't update. Do you think that would still be caused by the same issue? I can switch between Spotify and pandora with no issue, it only seems to be when I go from naviradio to Spotify. It's odd haha.
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
then check after switching from NavRadio to spotify whether NavRadio frees media channel and removes its notification from app drawer.

And compare it with switching from NavRadio to pandora.
[Android Head-Units] Mfreund21:
I'm sorry, I am very new to this. How would I check if navradio frees media channel? Thanks for the help btw!
[Android Head-Units] Mfreund21:
Also, do you know what gallery is compatible with the launcher? I want to upload a new background picture and it keeps telling me I need to download the gallery app in the app store, but doesn't tell me which one
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
any gallery app. I have installed "Simple gallery" when another app ("Torque") asked me to install gallery app.
[Android Head-Units] Mfreund21:
I had downloaded a few gallery apps but they did not work. I did download simple gallery and that one did work. Thank you!!!

Is there a good speed dial widget for this launcher.
[Android Head-Units] pixel1:
Can Car Launcher Pro display the playlist in the window and of course change it, as well as select songs in it? I didn't find any widgets ...
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
for displaying playlist Launcher need to get this info somewhere. As there is no API for this, then launcher cannot access it. So try to find music player (not launcher!) that can show such widgets.
[Android Head-Units] pixel1:
OK thanks. I will try to do so. I hope to be able to add a widget from another application.
[Android Head-Units] phenom_x4:
Same problem here. Did you find solution?
[Android Head-Units] runejpunk:
Hi,

When I edit my theme, choose Background n click the browse icon, there's just blank page with OK button only. It doesn't show select photos, folder tree or whatsoever. So I can't change my background except for stock background. Any solution?? Tq.
[Android Head-Units] HussKad:
do you have photo gallery or a file manager installed as it will look for a place where the images are Stord
[Android Head-Units] WinoOutWest:
That's what worked for me - had to install a gallery app from the play store first,

Where, exactly, does the weather info in Car Launcher Pro come from? I mean, how does know that it's raining, or cloudy, etc.?
[Android Head-Units] teo_dor:
Hello Riffra. I guess the app contain a link to a certain weather site; however you can use a widget from any weather app; I use :

Weather Live

from

Has anyone else had issues with Google maps not loading properly in the map widget while driving?

The map seems to load when zoomed all the way in (car stopped) however once I start driving it zoomes out to a low resolution version without any traffic info. If I then swype the map it loads in high resolution with traffic overlay. It also loads one I come to a stop & the map zoomes all the way in.

It's like the map only loads data when swyping around with the touch screen but not while driving where the map is following GPS position.

Any ideas on what could be causing this?
[Android Head-Units] a3deroo:
Yes, I have the same issue.
[Android Head-Units] Ian Jones:
hi all, anyone know how to save there loadout please, as I have tried, and it wont let me, and via dropbox also

[Android Head-Units] Ian Jones:
im not, I downloaded it from the play store yesterday, or how can I get the beta version please
[Android Head-Units] DANNLER:
Can you add a like button to widgets for spotify? Instead of having to open up spotify to press the like button?

Any change to integrate "here we go" navigation to be a widget?

If i use here we go in splitscreen mode. Then im not able to type anything in search bar, keyboard does not open
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
Can you have custom buttons in this launcher. I don't want the stock app buttons as none are the same format. Some have rounded edges some square etc. I would like to have the same button to use for all apps? Cheers
[Android Head-Units] Elephantoplasty:
Hi All,

I'm looking for some setup help for Car Launcher Pro, running on an Atoto S8. I really like it, and am close to getting it set up on the bench ready to install in the car.

I have Rocket Player and Tune-in Radio installed as medial players, and they show up correctly in the Car Launcher interface, and the controls in the Car Launcher interface control the app.

However, I haven't been able to get a free-to-air radio app working the same way.

The Atoto default app really doesn't interact with Car Launcher at all. It stops playing as soon as I go back to Car Launcher.

So I have been trying NaviRadio (free) which I read was meant to work. It sometimes shows the name of the station and keeps playing it when I go back to Car Launcher, and sometimes stops playing and doesn't show the station name... And hitting the control buttons or station logo just take me to the app itself.

Is there a trick to getting NaviRadio to work like the other Media apps? Do I need the paid version? Or is there another free-to-air radio app the works nicely with the Car Launcher interface.

Thanks.
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
Is there actually an official forum section for CLP?
[Android Head-Units] BrianAg95:
Love this app, BUT. for some reason Spotify has stopped displaying song info in the widget. Songs Play, but not the album art, nor the titles, nor the position indicator. The dancing lights thing works, (though i think thats actually a different widget). I have tried updating, hard reboots, etc.. nothing has fixed it that I have tried. I have NOT uninstalled and reinstalled. but maybe thats next for me. Sucks since I customized the UI...

PS I am a pro user
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:
@BrianAg95

have you set to show standard android media notification in Spotify?

Have you set to use active player or use Spotify in player list?
[Android Head-Units] BrianAg95:
Tried those....

Decided to try uninstall and reinstall... all works correctly again. Now I just have to totally customize my interface again..... :(
[Android Head-Units] IG_Vasilich:

[Android Head-Units] carroamer:
Have just installed Car Launcher Pro, but have a few things you might help me with. After setting this to be the Launcher, sometimes stock launcher loads when Home button is pressed. Also, the battery indicator always shows 42%? Is there an option to adjust sound based on speed (ie, louder at higher speeds)? Can widgets be adjusted (see photo). PS, Google Assistance button fixed by setting it to 'Google Now'.

Is there an option to set speed dependent volume in this launcher?

[Android Head-Units] domsob1974:
Hi,

So far I love the app but I have a question. I have downloaded offline Google maps because I don't have a hotspot for my car (or on my phone). Google Maps on the home screen doesn't show the offline map by default and I can't figure out how to get it to. If this is not possible, then is there a way to switch the default home screen nav map to the Herewego app that is on the unit.? If it is possible, can I get a quick walkthrough. When I long press the map on the home screen it only gives me the option of Yaldex or Google Maps (both of which I don't want to use). Thanks in advnace.

[Xperia Z4/Z3+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bruno$0:
hey, i allready got this issue! but you will need to have root to fix it. Is a flag on a Android Database file that blocks 'hotspot' function. You can downgrade back to 266 or wait for a other region 272 firmware.

Do anybody know how to create a custom ROM from sourrce??Please help me I want to know
[Nexus 6P General] .psd:
What are some cool apps for root? Or maybe some apps that add features that you'd think might require root.

Here's what I've got:

Pixel Filter - turn off pixels to save battery or to dim the display beyond stock limits.

Swipe Navigation - disable the nav bar to save screen space then swipe instead.

Simple Reboot - stock ROM doesn't include a reboot menu.

Root explorer - The original root file explorer, still maintained. This is some OG ****. 10/10.
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
ROM Toolbox from my signature, it has half of the tools you posted built into one, plus a automated script executer, terminal, app manager and much much more. I have linked the lite version but I highly recommend the pro version. I'm pretty sure the lite version has all the features though.

LMT Launcher - Best pie controls out there, I actually prefer this to PA pie control.

Viper4Android - unmatched audio control, better than DSP manager or Music FX. Any audiophiles best friend, can makes you're 128 mp3s sound almost like FLAC. (link is to a zip I made for n6p partially using zipme, you may or may not have to delete the audio_effects.conf from vendor, I did not, some do for an unknown reason)

ES File Manager - incredible root file manager with built in cleaner like CCleaner but for Android, with a sweet downloadable Holo theme.

Then of course BBS, titanium backup etc.

The next few are xposed modules I always run on my devices

Flat Style Bar Indicator - allows you to completely theme your statusbar except the notification icons(includes clock, signal, etc.

Amplify - Control your wakelocks! Need I say more? Lame app killing your battery? Easily fixable

GravityBox[MM] - all in one toolbox for customizing your phone! Only recommend for stock or AOSP roms however I usually run it with only one or two features I find crucial on any ROM.
[Nexus 6P General] JustRootDontCustomRomIt:
How do you feel LMT compares to similar launchers? I just started dabbing into these pie launchers and never felt so undecided. I'm currently using force touch detector.
[Nexus 6P General] steelersmb:
Does anyone else get an error when using ES File Explorer and trying to enable root? I get a message "sorry test failed" and it won't acquire root privileges.
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
IMHO its the king, I haven't tried others from the play store or whatever but compared to built in pie in roms lmt launcher is miles ahead, you can also configure gesture anywhere with it. I have attached below a screenshot of my pie. I've added a kill app shortcut to second layer, now on tap, and a camera shortcut.
[Nexus 6P General] venelar:
Root call blocker pro.

I own a small business and don't have a full time office person (I work in the field). I get so many solicitation calls it's unreal. I have a call blacklist of about 400 numbers
[Nexus 6P General] Triscuit:
Here's what I use that needs root:

AdAway - Full phone adblocker, uses host files to block and redirect ads. Not available from the play store but is available on Fdroid.

Viper4Android - Already explained in previous posts. I can't live without this one.

Naptime - Allows you to control the Doze settings, including aggressive doze.

/system/app mover - Allows you to add and remove system apps, I like to use this to make Viper4Android a system app so it can't be killed. Be cautious when using this app, if you're not smart you will cause issues with your phone.

Material Terminal - This has many functions for advanced users. I use it to execute scripts for the custom kernel I run.

Root Explorer (Paid) - IMHO the BEST root file explorer around.

Titanium Backup PRO - Everyone should have at least the free version of this on their phone. The paid version allows automatic restore of apps so you don't have to install each one manually. Plus many other features.

Better Battery Stats - This is a great app for troubleshooting battery and wakelock issues.

BatteryCalibration - I use this every couple of months especially if I've been crack flashing ROMs. It deletes old battery data and creates a fresh file.
[Nexus 6P General] carelockh:
Some really good suggestions, trying out swipe navigation [root]. Have to get used to swiping up, I like having actual full real estate for the phone.

Adaway - Dreaded ads, can't beat this app. Always one of the first apps I install when rooting my previous phones.

Viper4Android - Great app, can't stand stock audio controls.

Root explorer pro - As mentioned, the best root file explorer there is.

Titanium Backup Pro - I agree everyone should have some type of back up app for their apps.

MinMinguard - help block ads within apps

Youtube Adaway - I cannot do without this app, does great blocking ads within YouTube.

Greenify - Just started using this, great for helping save battery.

Youtube Background Playback - Useful when you want to lock the screen but still be able to continue playback. I have a bad habit of wanting to lock the screen when listening to songs on youtube lol.
[Nexus 6P General] atlharp:
In my opinion :

Link2sd- By far the best system app remover/maker I have used. Also is a great reboot menu provider.

Titanium Backup: Awesome back up for apps.

Root Explorer:Still the best file Explorer around.

GravityBox: Makes stock Android amazing.
[Nexus 6P General] bb1981:
Adaway is installed first on each and every flash on my devices. Second is Root Explorer followed by TiBu Pro to freeze/backup apps if necessary. Currently, I also have Amplify (haven't tweaked any settings yet, just installed and granted SU), Greenify (+donation package), V4A, Xposed (+GB), Simple Reboot and finally LiveBoot Pro so I can watch something other than the boot animation during boot. I've heard of Naptime but haven't checked it out yet. Might make that my next one to try squeezing some more time from a charge.
[Nexus 6P General] enaybee:
Pretty much what others have in order in which I install them (after flashing a new rom):

- Titanium Backup Pro

- Adaway

- Root Explorer Pro

- Viper4Android

- Battery Calibration

- Xposed Module with the following:

- MinMin Guard (Ad Blocker)

- Use USB for Marshmallow (Set MTP as default)

- XHangouts (for theming and other options in Hangouts)

- YouTube Adaway

- YouTube Background Playback
[Nexus 6P General] wewewi999:
Two apps I havent seen mentioned yet:

- Secondscreen (very handy external monitor management; overscan, dpi, etc. )

- Nova Launcher (couldnt live without its doubletap2sleep gesture anymore)
[Nexus 6P General] masInvasion:
Which Battery Calibration app are you referencing? On the play store there are at least 4 with the same name. I downloaded the one with the most downloads though(1 million).

and yea I agree root explorer is the best. It was one of first root apps on the OG Droid.
[Nexus 6P General] xSilas43:
Solid Explorer! Holy crap! I used to be in love with es file manager and root Explorer but this manager is just miles ahead, search in the play store, it's free to try for 2 weeks and see for yourself! Definitely my new favourite.

Nova launcher needs Root?
[Nexus 6P General] Jhonys:
Only if you want the DT2S feature.
[Nexus 6P General] tu3218:
Nova doesn't require root for DT2S. Use to use it all the time on my locked down note 4. It's just a gesture.
[Nexus 6P General] likonvampire:
Nova needs root if you want the swipe down to show notifications function to work properly
[Nexus 6P General] Jhonys:
It does for the 6p. If you choose the rootless method then you have to enter your pin code or w/e other unlocking method you have regardless of using the fingerprint sensor every time you want to use the device.

[LG V10 General] petalex99:
Stange....I obtained 66610 Antutu 6.0.1 score on mu LG V10 H961N and 65222 on my wife's LG G4 H815
[LG V10 General] M@rs:
Look at your notificationbar you have tons out stuff currently running and one looks like an antivirus app.

Restart your phone and close the antivirus and the apps which show the notifications.

There's a reason why in benchmarks only the necessary stuff runs.

(in pc benchmarks they often use a separate ssd with a minimal Windows installation on it to get higher scores)

P.s.: the g4 should have an nearly eqaul score than the v10 and the note 5 of course has the higher score it has one of the fastest processors atm even faster than the snapdragon 810.
[LG V10 General] claydoh:
I have both phones, they are not that different. The G4 is rooted and debloated while the V10 is somewhat debloated.

I am sure that not running the 3D test is making your overall score lower as well.
[LG V10 General] trungvov10:
Then sell it and buy other phones lmao
[LG V10 General] hesamjm:
I did this test twice.

The first time my score was about 62000

The second time my score was about 54000

So i remove antutu apps from my phone. Its not a stable app and the results are fun. In Every test you will surprise with a strange score...

Remove it and enjoy ... Best phone of world is in your hands.
[LG V10 General] trungvov10:
There are many things that changed the score, the app is not unstable, and the score doesnt say much.
[LG V10 General] hesamjm:
I did test whitout any time twice. Its very fun ... Do you know its about 8000 score differnce...

How is it possible

Just joke
[LG V10 General] trungvov10:
Not everybody get that 8k score difference, in fact, I tested 5 times and they r all around 63k to 65k
