I wanted to report back on my success with installing the recent ROM (10.8). Installed on a Klyde unit supplied by EONON (GA6162F) with MCU Version MTCD_KLD_V1.97b.

The instructions were OK, I think I had the most troubles getting into recovery mode with the unit - but I got there. I found that if I used the SD Firmware Tool on the SD Card in the GPS slot, then load the ROM itself via the USB - everything worked.

As I have the 1GB RAM/16GB NAND RockChip SOC, I made sure all non-essential Google Services were disabled, which significantly improved performance within the first few minutes of booting. Previously it was extremely sluggish and brought back painful memories of when I had the WinCE units from 5 years ago in my car. Waze, Spotify, DashCommand, etc. all load up instantly - very happy now! Google Play, whilst useful, will only be switched back on periodically - either that, or i'll side-load my apps. I also have at least 400MB available RAM after booting up :)

In addition I've also de-soldered the internal microphone and ran a female jack out from behind the unit. The microphone which EONON supplied me was faulty and never worked, so I'm using my Sound Blaster Zx microphone. This mod involved removing the top lid (warranty gone... awwww) and the front fascia housing - well worth the time and effort. Will need to get some hot glue later to finish it off nicely, but for now have used some wiring loom tape to hold it all in place to prevent snagging.

Looking forward to continue using the Malay ROMs - it's well thought out and has all the essentials!

Hello Eyeballer

Got the to the exact same point as you with the same unit :) Runs quite good now.

My weather services crashes 2 times everytime the unit connects to internet.

I an also having troubles with the microphone, i am having trouble figuring out if the unit is using the external or the internalt. Why did you need to do the modification ? There is a mic plug in the back of the unit. Anyway, will look for a better mic ;)

To Malaysk. Donated, you have made my unit so much better ! Keep up the good work.
[MTCD Software Development] iscaryot:
Change the weather service from Yahoo weather to openweather in settings and the weather wont crash anymore after disableing google services.
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
What am I doing wrong? I try to change my serial number to manage to install TomTom but it won't change after reboot. I entered a few screenshots to show you the situation(sorry for the rotation).
[MTCD Software Development] Madyen:
Mate,

This is my tip for you: leave TomDom behind and use iGO (26-Jan-2017) or Sygic or TomDom 1.4.. I'm using iGO (9.18.27.687519) mostly and I'm very happy with it, is much better then TT and have alot of options incl. many tts sound options and warnings which TT doesn't have and ofcourse no needs to change any SN!!

:good:

IGo better than tomtom?

Sorry, but the traffic information in tomtom is awesome. Much better than iGo could ever be.

Best is maps, but got often problems with data stick.

Getapped and getalked with 6603
[MTCD Software Development] Madyen:
Mate,

1- the maps are from TT!

2- with traffic I have no problem (yet)!

3- maybe you don't knew how (in settings) to used.. I say MayBe!?!

4- I have them both (TT on my Note 4!)

5- I still smoothly with me iGO driving.

6- wish you a good trip with your TT ;)

:good:

Madyen
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
I don't like iGO but I did try Sygic(which is prety good). Still I want to try TomTom because I think this must be the best on the market. Unfortunately I can't change my serial number to a normal 12 digits number. Is it possible that it's something within the mcu?
[MTCD Software Development] Madyen:
Mate,

don't mess with your mcu or your hu because of TT.. my free advice!

try Sygic is also a nice one too, i have it and used from time to time just for testing things too!!

:good:

BrGd

Madyen
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
Thanks for the advice! I will stick with sygic.

Another question. Since the beginning I am not able to map the steering wheel keys. All the keys are working(volume, mode, scrollwheel) except the next, previous buttons. When I open de steering wheel mapping application I don't see any keys at all, it seems like the unit is not reconizing the canbus decoder or something.

Is there someone with the same problem here, or know how to fix this?
[MTCD Software Development] dongali:
Could someone post the .apk for the updated vehicle information app in the new Malaysk rom? Thanks!
[MTCD Software Development] Madyen:
Mate,

There are two options for your swc problem, 1 use the apk on this forum from that guy and maybe you'll be helped with, 2 and this is almost 100% Ok but it's going to cost you -alot of- money, buy that Pac canbus one from ebay !!

Like this one:

http://www.ebay.de/itm/PAC-CAN-BUS-...142291?hash=item51b6cb8593:g:pXIAAOSwUKxYka4c

Success.

:good:
[MTCD Software Development] makes2068:
No problem...

Traffic information is more important to me than routing.

I know my way, but I don't know the delay.

Tomtom knows and shows traffic jam inside small cities.

IGo did not.

And yes, I know how to enable traffic in iGo.

[MTCD Software Development] tpf:
I struggled with the TomTom serial number issue for ages, but since v10 I've succeeded!!

Try as I did, with Device Faker which is needed to fake your device into something else like an Xperia, so that you can download TT from the Play Store, then try MTC service for a serial change, reboot via Xposed. Try to start TomTom...

This seems to have worked for me. I think the secret might be either device faker with MTC or the Xposed reboot option, or all three, who knows!!

Also, you're not on the latest version, are you? Don't know if this is important.

Good luck [emoji4]
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
Thanks for your response.

Yes I am on the latest version 10.8, I updated it yesterday.

I will try to install device faker(from App Store?) and then activate MTC service to change the serial number. Do you see the new serial number now in the settings?
[MTCD Software Development] Madyen:
Hi, Just for fun!:D!

I like to reply to and with this funny one:

If you already know your way, you don't needs to know your delay.. nice one.. hahaha.

Because there is no delay.. If I already knew my one way to my home way, then I don't needs to see my delay.. Right? Or are men going to Rome??? hahaha.

I'm going to explain it in a very simple way to understand me:

My home is crossing the bridge so if there is (always 15 minutes delay on that bridge) a traffic jam problem should I not crossing the bridge then or should I looking for a traffic jump?.. what would you recommend me.. swimming maybe:confused:

Think mate, traffic jam is not allwise very very important then showing the right way to your end destination ;)

I stay in traffic jam every year when I went to Spain on holiday.. Thanks to TT!:good:!

[MTCD Software Development] tpf:
When I tried before the new serial never showed up. I went from MTC change of serial number, after clicking OK to Xposed reboot.

I tried a couple of times to go from serial change straight to open TomTom but it needs that hard reboot (think it might also work with a soft reboot?)

Free version of device faker from the Play store worked for me.
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
OK, and do you install TomTom after the device faker or after Change the serial number?
[MTCD Software Development] tpf:
I downloaded device faker first from play store, set device to something with 5.1.1, apply changes, reboot, back to Play store, download TomTom, serial change, Xposed reboot, open TomTom with internet connected, starts!
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
Thank you for the clear explanation. I will try this tomorrow!
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
Hi,

I can't find any device in with 5.1.1 in the device faker list. Does it matter when I change it to a random one?
[MTCD Software Development] tpf:
It shouldn't matter as long as TomTom shows up in play store. I think the first one I did it was set to a nexus with 4.1.
[MTCD Software Development] S4v1ng:
I changed it to a random device and did a restart. After that my device went in a bootloop and after 10 minutes it started to boot a clean install again.

Hi joshnat - I am having the same issue - I can't change the LED lights / button backlights to red. Green and blue work but it seems red doesn't work at all... it was red before I installed this ROM. Did you ever get this figured out?

Thanks.

Guys, try the following might help it?

Go to factory settings (pw) and in other select RGB (W) LED , and save it and then restart your hu and see if it worked?

HowTo Flash It (My Old Post!!) ..

Mate,

Can you Reflash your hu like this way?

1- format (fat32) your micro (2gb) sd card again!

2- put the new img + new mcu on it!

3- insert your micro sd card in the gps slot!

4- go to recovery and do wipe all first (if possible to enter!)!!!

5- flash your hu and wait until the hu (takes +/- 8 minutes) start itself up (mine Xtrons hu does!!)!

6- go back to recovery and do a wipe all again !!very important!!

7- wait until the hu start up, now you can install your things likes apk's, gps, upload your movies, songs, pics, etc.

Let the guys know if it works?.

Sorry for my English, Thanks

I have the same problem. The station presets get reset when I turn off the car. Not always, but 9 out of 10 it loses them.

And only the stations are lost, no other setting or configuration, which is very strange.

Have tried different MCUs and android versions, including Malaysk's ROM and it still happens.

I have an Erisin ES3015V (MTCD_LM) on a '12 VW Tiguan.

Mine is erisin as well. At least that's the advert says, on the radio I cannot find any brand. Trough the menu I find only a-media auto.

I have sent a video to the seller proving a bad quality on the screen and they tell me to replace the display. It's a bit nasty that they send a display which might not be the solution to the problem. Luckily I opened a dispute on aliexpress and will not close it before everything works good.

When I installed 10.8 over 10.7 it was blazing fast - I was quite surprised to be honest as I had got used to how sluggish it was (with stock firmware as well as Malaysk's ROMs). However yesterday it was back to its usual sluggish speed. I guess Google services have auto-updated themselves. I'll take a look later and maybe try disabling Google services.

Andy
[MTCD Software Development] Nomader0:
It is when you login to your google account the lag starts.
[MTCD Software Development] ADB100:
Really? I have dirty-flashed since 10.0 so my Google account has always been there. When I installed 10.8 I couldn't believe how responsive it was. I was also connected to my home WiFi so it would have been signed into Google.

I think the Google services automatically update themselves and you have no control over it. They also install to the /data/app partition, whereas Malaysk has included the latest Google services in the /system/priv-app & /system/app RO partitions. Could this be a reason it all starts to slow down?

Andy
[MTCD Software Development] masri1987:
thanks, might of just been momentarily down last night
[MTCD Software Development] Nomader0:
so why don't you re-install 10.8 on top and check for lag?

that will overwrite the installed google services..

IMHO it will not make a difference.
[MTCD Software Development] ADB100:
Earlier I (eventually...) went to settings, apps and removed the updates to the Google Play services and Google Services Framework and it almost immediatley sped up... I don't know why, but it does...

Andy
[MTCD Software Development] Nomader0:
interesting.. but this effect is also exhibited when you force stop google services (e.g. using the rocket button) (they will take some seconds minutes and they will eventually restart) but during this time the system is lag free.. as soon as the process restarts lag returns
