Ok I'm back,

So just to quickly update you on my 2din issue. It is still an issue. Update finished.

Back to my install on my phone, though. As a reminder, I installed the same Igo Primo on my android phone just so that I could test to see if it would have the same TTS Pro voice issue as I am experiencing with my 2din (TTS does not mute music when speaking). I initially reported that my phone installation works 100% correctly when using TTS voices and playing music at the same time. The music mutes when the GPS speaks.

However, I noticed something the other day. When I initially tested with music on my phone, I initially used the default android music play on my Samsung Galaxy phone. This worked fine. But the default music player would also pick up the audio files from the Igo folders and list them within the music library. I do know there is a simple work around in order to stop the default music player from seeing the Igo folder (and not play the GPS audio files).

But instead I started playing music on my phone using the Power Amp player. Anyways, when I play music through Power Amp, the TTS Pro voices do the same thing as my 2din (which is that the music does not mute when the GPS speaks). Yet when I play music using the phone's default android player, this issue does not happen. So now, I have this question and issue to resolve. Maybe this will somehow explain why my 2din also does not mute the music when the GPS speaks (using TTS voices).

Does anyone have an idea on this.?I would think that the audio stream for music would be the same for both mp3 apps. So if I change the audio stream options on the Igo sys.txt file it should affect how it reacts with all apps. Not just one app and not the other. Is this a correct assumption? Does this mean that the default music player uses one audio stream (the same one used by Igo), and that Power Amp used another audio stream?

Any ideas?

Thanks,

ggee

Hello,

I want to pass this along in case there is someone out there with the same issue on their 2din android car head unit. Someone on another forum shot me a private message to try something as a workaround and it seems to have worked for me (I can live with it).

My issue was that when using iGO Primo with TTS voices, the head unit would not mute or lower the volume of music when the navigation voice speaks. It did not matter if I used android's built in Google-TTS engine or another third party engine. However, I did not have this issue when using the normal non-TTS voices (in this case the head unit worked correctly with muting/lowering the music).

So they suggested that I switch back to using the built in Google-TTS engine and the correct language in the android settings of the head unit. Then go into the head units GPS settings and assign the Google-TTS engine as the default GSP application. Doing this will mean that the hard GSP button on the head unit will no longer launch iGO Primo. But that is ok because I can launch it through the iGO icon/shortcut on the screen. Then make sure to go into the iGO Primo sound/volume settings and select the correct TTS voice, with the correct language that matches the language on the Google-TTS engine setting. Then properly exit from the iGO Primo app and reboot the head unit. That's it.

This somehow causes the head unit to function correctly when iGO Primo uses TTS voices. This workaround only works when using iGO Primo with TTS voices. It will not work when using normal non-TTS voices.

If you are using any third party TTS engine (like Nuance or Ivona) and try this workaround, it will not work properly. It will work at first until you shut off iGO Primo or the head unit reboots. When this happens, the settings get lost and you will need to redo the settings each time. But the settings "stick" when using the built in Google-TTS engine.

So far I have not had any issues in over two weeks. I hope this helps anyone else with the same annoying issue I had (look at my first post on this thread for a full description of the issue).

Thanks,

ggee

I am curious if you have gone to the GPS settings in the head unit under settings and modifie the volume setting fade in or out. I put mine to the highest seting and now the volume mute is good. hope this is what you meant and helps.

Changing GPS settings didn't help me. Setting gps app to Google TTS only works.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] yves31:
Since the navigation hardware key does not work anymore when GPS app assigned to Google TTS, can the key be assigned to iGO app directly? From Factory Settings menu all keys can be mapped to different functions, but cannot be mapped to android apps. Is there a solution for assigning apps to keys?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] sniktaw:
Had exact same problem as ggee and fixed it as he wrote by using Google TTS - thanks!

Now, only problem is that A roads are identified as I2 rather than A2, for example. This even though I have English UK set as language. I'm guessing I is for interstate. Vocalizer TTS says A, not I.

Any ideas how to get Google TTS to say A?

Hi ggee,

I know it's a bit old post but I would like to know if your problem is solved already ?

Did you try Pulsar Music Player ? It has the possibility to exclude folders with sounds in it you don't want to play.

Also, do you have the same iGO TTS problems with Radio and / or DAB+ ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gguevara:
Hello japio,

I have been away from the forum ever since I posted my work around. However, I am back again because of a new issue, and that is why I just saw your question. To answer your question, the work around has worked very good. I did not have to use any other third party app of modification.

My new issue is the GPS card slot no longer works (for no reason). It just stopped working, and even the head unit's own file manager app no longer recognizes the GPS card slot as a storage source. It only sees the internal memory and the regular SD memory, but not the GPS memory. Yes the SD card that I am using in the GPS card slot is good (tested on multiple devices). Even when I switch the card to the SD card slot, the head unit recognizes it and can open any of the files. I have read that the card slots can go bad on these generic 2din units, and the only way is to replace the GPS card board. But the Chinese seller can not help me with this because the model is no longer in production (its from Aug 2016..., not even 2 years old).

Anyways, I am searching for how to install the iGO app and map/voice files so that it launches and fully functions from the SD card slot (not the GPS slot), or the back USB ports (flash drive). Another option is to install the iGO app to the internal memory, but keep the maps/voices on the SD card (or USB). I know this is possible because I remember reading about it several years ago (when searching for a solution to my original issue). I just don't remember where I saw it. And so now I have to search, search, search this huge forum (or other forums) to find the instructions again.

If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know or copy the link when replying.

Thanks,

ggee

Hi gguevara

The workaround did not work for me. I think I leave it that way. I have also installed Copilot, same problem with TTS voice, it does not mute also.

Think it's a bug in the Joying rom.

I have installed both iGO and Copilot NAV apps on internal memory because my Joying Head Unit has 32 Gb memory so that no problem, I don't use ext GPS SD slot.

About your broken SD slot, are you sure you have put the SD card the right way into the slot ?

No idea if it's the same as my Joying unit but mine uses different ways for the SD card and the GPS card.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gguevara:
Hello Japio,

Of coarse I am sure about which way/direction I am inserting the SD card into the slot. I mean c'mon..., give me some credit please ;)

Like I mentioned, the GPS card was in the slot the whole time. I never had a need to continuously take it out and back in again (for what?). So it was always in the GPS slot and working. Then one day the slot just stopped working.

Anyways, my unit also has enough internal memory to hold both the app and all the other map/poi related files. However, I was able to figure out how to install the app to the internal memory, and keep the map/poi related files on the SD card (in the regular SD slot).

What sucks is that I can no longer flash a new rom/firmware in the future, because this is done via the GPS slot. That sucks.

Thanks,

ggee

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] DarkCase:
simply try to move the "sys.txt" file inside to the "content" folder and then check if it mutes the music or not, in my case it is like that and it works.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Chriss00:
I have similar problem like [MENTION=6834833]gguevara[/MENTION].

When I use non-TTS on iGO, all OK.

But when I select TTS, then with stock radio is not OK. There is no sound at all from iGO with TTS, I can hear just radio.

But if I open some 3rd party music/video app all OK with TTS. It mute music and I can hear good iGO with TTS. But with stock radio TTS not working, it's like radio ignores iGO TTS.

I tried to play with option "Navi Mix". With that option I can select how much I wanna hear radio in background with navigation, but that options works only with non-TTS.

I did try use Google-tts and VocalizerEx2, same story.

So what could be problem, why Radio ignores TTS?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] stesofeu:
My problem is quite similar to yours but my headunit with CNS2 MCU (Klyde) always mutes the player's sound totally but the sound of the radio app not. This is faded to a lower volume. I want the TTS also fades the player's sound. So I tried to set up Google TTS app as navigation/GPS app. But I don't find that app in the presented list of possible navigation apps. How can I set up Google TTS app as GPS app properly?

Google TTS app is already installed...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] berserkk:
There is a better solution to setting gps app as google TTS:

unfortunately the tts quality is slightly lower

The reason this problem happens is because MTCB etc. units that have set "gps application" and have mixing or switching expect the voice to come from gps (e.g. igo) app and not from system tts to do the muting, that is why setting to google tts works, now it expects voice to come from google tts.

So we need to make tts voice come from gps app (not google system tts), then set gps application as normal

to do this need to install engine for gps app as well as voices

I have only found igo files, i havent tried with any other

need:

igo nextgen (israel , gift or basarsoft)

tts_nua_ve1 - folder for your language , goes in /iGo/tts_nua_ve1/

need voices the match , goes in /iGo/content/voice

not sure if i am allowed to post links to gpspower osiris voices, mod please remove if not allowed:

Can get all language voices here:

https://www.gpspower.net/igo-nextge...iles-tts-nua-ve1-post1190596.html#post1190596

need to extract zip, go to tts_engine folder, turn .tts file into .tts.zip for your language, extract folder tts_nua_ve1 and place in /igo/ root folder

then copy matching voice file for your language to /iGo/content/voice

ensure you remove vocalizerex apk install from your system

set gps application to igo

set mode to switching (for test)

reboot system

turn on radio , go to igo->regional->select tts voice with street names pronounced, check for switching during tts

then can set to mixing or whatever you like

enjoy!

[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] neles86:
So should we use rc8 instead of the available rc9 in apkmirror?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] joshuadjohnson22:
yes, rc9 will not install on anything but a nexus device or a device with a specific sub-folder. Some people were able to get it to work on CWM builds but since we do not have CWM we have to stick with RC8. On the plus side there is very minor differences and you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Accessories] kelvrick:
I'm looking for a case that attaches at the four corners and has a raised lip/bumper at the top and bottom of the phone to protect the screen when the phone is face down. Attaching at the corners provides drop protection since those are the most vulnerable spots on impact and being recessed at the sides will add minimal bulk when holding and using the phone without getting in the way of sliding in from the edges. In a nutshell, like the S7 edge cases, but for my S7 regular. I've spent hours browsing amazon, ebay, google and searching through forums and I'm hoping someone knows of a case with these features.

Starting from my Nexus 4, then my Sony Z3, then my G4, I've always had to settle or customize (cut) cases but I'm hoping I don't have to do that for the S7. Does anyone know of a case like I described?

Thanks!

The polycarbonate is recessed on the sides, even though the gpu doesn't. I'll be taking an exacto knife to it as seen below. I'll probably see how well the buttons still work and then try cutting it deeper to where I'll be accessing the original phone's volume/power buttons. I'll post pictures as I go along for anyone interested.
