my device putting out more and more trouble...

1) I got a new mobile (S8) now the HU does not connect to the phone Hotspot if it is protected with WPA2. if it is open, connecting as normal. i already tried different type of passwords. letter only, numberes only. I also tried different type of SSIDs.

2) Playstore does not open anymore. just white screen. no matter on what Wifi I am running. Browser is working normally. (I am Running on MicroG version, Playstore was working before)

3) TOMTOM does just not start. sometimes it does sometimes eternal loading screen.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Malaysk ROM 21/02/2017 works on Joying HU model number 2818H-5.1 J0623 (1024x600, Cortex A9, 1 GB RAM) with original MCU MTCD_JY_V2.06_02 (21/12/2016).

Appears to be faster, but this may be also due to "wiping" all user data after a year of use of original ROM (recently, I had lot of app freezes - especially Waze).

I noticed few things with Weather (system app):

* After choosing the weather data provider, the app crashes until its reset.

EDIT: This is not a problem with the Malaysk ROM v11.2 anymore * The app appears to take the location only from IP address, while it would be great to utilise the GPS location.

This is a part for Witson Android Radios and they have 800X480 Screens.

If that work with 1024x600?

While my system has a 800x480 Screen the PX5 (from the link indicated) was certainly drawing the display and reporting as 1024x600w, until I was able to tell it to draw at 800x480 again.

what's the best way going from 11.5 with google services to 11.5 with microg? just do a normal clean reinstall?

looks like development for px3 is dead, might as well try microg to see if the speed improvement is such a big deal as advertised...

LE: nevermind, clean wiped it and installed microg. It is a substantial speed increase, not comparable with simply disabling everything google on a normal install. Found a weird bug: even if you have mtc_radio.ini edited and placed on internalsd, the app doesn't pick up the entries (read the file) unless RDS is activated in factory settings. Afterwards it can be disabled again.
[MTCD Software Development] lala1:
I installed the latest version (11.5). I had a vodafone 3g dongle ,but that didn´t work. Sow bought a Huawei E220 unlocked dongle ,that should work on all android devices,but still the network settings are disabled. I also tried ppp, and the dongle is connected, but stil no internet acces. Am i doing something wrong or is the dongle not working on the HU, and what kind of dongle do i need to buy? Or is there a way ,to enable the settings?

Thanks in advance
[MTCD Software Development] zerozoneice:
chinese units are very "dongle picky", most likely yours doesn't have the modules compiled in and can't be recognized.

return it where you bought it from and ask the chinese vendors which dongles they support for your unit...which is what by the way?

I'm going to use my phone as a hotspot. I only use the internet on the radio for traffic news of tomtom.
[MTCD Software Development] GoNzCiD:
I have to check my exact model, but I was having errors with this ROM and maybe it was caused by hawei dongle as yours.

-TomTom GO restart

- With radio enabled with Tomtom, when navigator spoke, music app was resumed and mixed radio and music...

- Some FC

- Playing music from usb it was stopped suddently, when I start music app again it starts from SD card

This morning I have ejected 3G dongle and no errors or isuues, I have to test it more time, but it seems to be some incompatibilities with certain dongles.

Anyone use other dongles working fine? or the best way is to buy the recommended vendor device?

Hey, i'm using Jetplayer as my default media player. I could successfully change the hardbutton assignment for my HU. When i run my navigation software while using the jetplayer, the volume decreases, when the navi is talking, so far everything's fine. But when i'm on reverse gear, the music volume won't decrease when the PDC is running. With the default media player, the volume decreases correctly. Any idea to solve this problem?

I think you can install the newest radio app from oem folder, that version is without the panel on the top.
[MTCD Software Development] cogano:
Thanks, that's a reasonably good work-around. And it is useful for other apps like Waze (whose graphical elements take a lot of space so that only a little remains for the actual map).

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:34 PM ----------

Does anyone know an app, which would automatically connect to _any_ open WLAN hotspot and which would work MalaySK ROM?

Android does not support the feature, because of possible security/privacy issues.

For Nexus, there used to be Google WiFi Assistant, which allowed to connect to anything available and set up an VPN to Google servers to workaround the the privacy problems.

I do not want to use any WiFi auto-connect app, which would also share the keys of encrypted hotspots.

I would be happy for any app, which would work - any connection from the HU goes encrypted (maps, google location) or is not important (weather data). The Android for HU lacks any reasonable security features anyway, so I would not dare to store any sensitive data on it.

I did try a few apps (Wifi Buddy Beta incl.), but they do not seem to work.

Gpsmtclauncher

Can this topic have already been seen here?

I installed version 2 of MALAYSK on my MTCD-PK5 including Gpsmtclauncher.

After having Cut and Paste the mtc folder from my PC to the GPS SD card.

Anyone could tell me that I did not do well to see the speed and the radio station appear on the screen saver?
[MTCD Software Development] TT_Vert:
Make sure you have the appropriate mtc folders/files on the root of sd card.

Also, has anyone experienced the weather not updating anymore? Last few days just seeing -- instead of a temp.

Dave
[MTCD Software Development] Cibercy:
Hi Dave

Thanks for your reply.

my "mtc-launcher.ini" file is located in a folder called: mtc-launcher on the root of SD card
[MTCD Software Development] TT_Vert:
ok and you have the appropriate MPH or KPH file in there? I don't use the screensaver but I had an issue of the speed not showing (Was greyed out) on the home screen until I killed the launcher, then it'd work. Can you maybe try that?

Dave
[MTCD Software Development] Cibercy:
KPH Yes of course.

There is something strange about it. GpsMtcLauncher appears well in Xposed Installer but without specifying its size in byte.

I'll try to kill the screen saver. Could please you just indicate me how to do it?
[MTCD Software Development] TT_Vert:
YOu can try that but I mean the actual launcher. Was something like JY launcher 5.11 If you show me where you are seeing the file size Ill check mine also.

Have you copy folders indicated and enabled xposed modules? after that it works to me.

Create an account and copy to your cloud

It works for me updating values and xposed modules enabled. Moreover find in this post, you can edit a .ini file and it works too.

Now I have it enabled for few minutes but I have tested it and works.

Note that in some cases you have to restart the HU in order to xposed modules read configurations and apply it.
[MTCD Software Development] trvbone:
There's a setting somewhere that just needs to be switched to off or zero for screensaver timeout. The settings you're trying above I don't think are needed. I didn't have to do that anyway.

Hi all, does anyone use Car Launcher? I've just starting using it combined with poweramp for music and it seems pretty solid. Only thing is my steering wheel skip track buttons dont work with poweramp (all other buttons work) also I've lost my reverse camera rulers even though they are enabled in system settings.

I previously disabled some microntek services so maybe that could have something to do with it?

I also recently re-enabled play services (not playstore) and it doesn't seem to be laggy like before.

Can someone please check if they have the pictured Microntek services frozen in titanium or other app. I may or may not have disabled them previously but I am unable to unfreeze them now. I updated to latest Malaysk build today and they were still frozen.
[MTCD Software Development] trvbone:
Ok it looks like the apps are on there but aren't backed up or frozen. I would try to extract the APKs or make a backup of them if you can then uninstall/reinstall. Also you may not have the read/write settings right to install them to system. I believe they are considered system apps. IDK just some thoughts.

Upgrade 5.1.1 to 7.1

Hi,

I installed a car dvd android that carries the following version at the moment.

Version MCU:

MTCD_KGL_V1.40_1

Version Android:

5.1.1

Version Kernel:

3.0.101+

Number Build:

rk3188-userdebug 09032016

I would like to know if it is possible to update it to a new version. For example I've seen some Android cars installing version 7.1

Is it possible on this?

Thank you
[MTCD Software Development] gee.dunkin:
I don't think it is possible. I do t think they can upgrade android version. Mine cannot and I have the same as you.
[MTCD Software Development] OldRon:
Hi...

You can update your MCU to a new version. At the moment for your device the latest is KGL 1.92a you can find it at the MCU Thread. The 2.x versions are for PX5 units...

As for Android 7.x or 6.x I'm sorry to tell you, that there is no way to upgrade that... You need a newer unit with 2GB main-memory.

Regards,

Stephan
[MTCD Software Development] LuK4S'87:
What changes if I upgrade the MCU?
[MTCD Software Development] OldRon:
Not really sure, since there is no changelog...

But I recognized better stability regarding bluetooth and radio.

Also since the update I had only one or two re-boots during the last 6 month...

So, I can recommend it :)
