Sorry to hear it's going to be a while. They couldn't just send you a replacement board?

Well, I'd like to know why most of the system apks are not listed under sysAPKLst? Maybe making an app a system app makes it automatically fit criteria? I think when you turn off vehicle everything that's running should be put in a snapshot then restored when start vehicle. Just like turning off screen on phone except maybe to stop audio output. Would even be great if network stayed connected so things can finish downloading. We have a big battery that could be fine for the 48hr sleep time, if it goes beyond that then yes shutdown but it should still boot with background apps running automatically just like any other device. Once I test this event center with updated sysAPKLst and if it's working then I want to try remove the method for killing apps in the smali I posted just to see what happens. Once i get things to run consistently then I will mess with custom launcher and a toggle for top bar.
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
So I had changed an option under "Console" >Rain Sensing wipers (or something like that) >on. Switched back to off and it's working again.

Anyone using there Ford OEM DAB antenna with a USB adapter? I am having issues with signal up and down like a YoYo, not sure if its because the USB DAB+ unit is sending 5v up the cable as it uses a active antenna, and my OEM one is already powered with 12V.

I'm using it without problems

It seems everyone has a higher trim level than me! I didn't even know that was an option...
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I'm ram lo, it was never there until I switched from my factory ROM to the Phoenix one. There's a lot of options that have no use. It may be because I messed with the cars under advanced settings , there's settings for different cars and I figured since I didn't have that car it wouldn't matter.

I would like to know if you have the option for Show Compass? I had it originally but lost it when switched to the Phoenix update.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
In console? I'll check pictures to see but I still have my core board out for repair/exchange.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
On RAM American, these are my only options...
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I'll take some pics tomorrow, but the compass option is either under advanced settings or sys info > long press (if you use custom launcher or app drawer like JINA drawer you can get to it by clicking factory settings app).
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I am trying to add some packages to sysAPKLst , the last item has hex 0x2f so wouldn't the next item be 0x30? Can anyone tell me? I added some items and it won't run, but I also commented out the line in EvtModel.smali about invoke ...... showHideNavBar because I want to be able to hide only the top bar. I'm going to test it without that change but I wanted to see if anyone replies about adding items to sysAPKLst just to see if I am doing it right. I don't want to just change existing list, I would like to add items because in future I may need to add more. I'm thinking possibly a change in Event Center where the showHideNavBar is different because I audio tried the toggle app to hide both and it doesn't work, just says click toggle had crashed.

I have a ton of options under Console which half of them I don't know what they are. Take a look, so you don't have all these options? Sorry I don't have an image hosting site so just going to share the folder with the pictures.

[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Holy crap! That's be awesome if those toggles worked. I'm going to have to figure out what I don't have those options...maybe you have an updated MCU version?
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Well my unit came from different seller (rhino radios) so maybe some difference, I'm just glad the Phoenix update, and later the rooted update, work with it. My MCU says 860C and it seems a lot of the settings (like Metric vs American) don't stick no matter what. It's very likely I somehow enabled the settings by changing the settings under advanced (were it says Highlander ,F150, etc) because I didn't think they would make a difference anyway. Also, my password for advanced settings changed from 8861 to 888666 when I flashed the Phoenix update (and subsequent updates after). Is that what yours is/was?

I'm getting really frustrated trying to add packages to the sysapk list, no problem changing out existing packages but apparently you can't add more.... Hopefully someone with more smali experience can step in and let me know if I'm doing it wrong. I'd be happy to post any files for checking and I had hoped once I got it functional I would share it and a quick guide for those that want to change any apps.

Finally, has anyone got the top bar to hide in the 7.1 units? I would love to automate this so it hides in certain apps and returns in others. I have very limited time to actually test things in the truck as I run a business all week and the family keep me busy on weekends. I sneak out whenever I get a chance

Edit: after further looking I think (I hope) I found my problem. At the beginning of the list there is const/16 v0, 0x30 (48 in hex) so I changed that to match the number of apps including the added ones so now it's 0x3c (or 60 in hex). Will try it in the morning.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Sorry, I'd help if I could. I'll let you know when I'm back up.

I did modify the Eventcenter.APK to successfully hide the top bar only on a 4.4 unit. I have the APK if you'd like to compare it with a 7.1. I plan on repeating the modification when my board comes back.

Yes my password changed with the firmware. It's normal. Where you bought it from is seemingly meaningless for now. They are all the same radio with different customer.xml files.
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I would really like to compare the 2 with winMerge it will show all differences and I can see if that part has changed (plus would be nice to know if they used the same base files going to 7.1). They most likely only changed the fast boot portions, so maybe only added a little
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
PM sent...
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Do you have any ideas for the 7.1 version? Didn't seem to do anything either with direct command or with the toggle UI apk
[Android Head-Units] ikuznets222:
No idea, I don't have a 7.1 unit. I found this bit about show/hide intent while browsing EventCenter java code.
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Is there more than one spot to select auto run navigation? I set up an apk with Tasker to start my services but even though I select 'Autorun Navigation" I still have to click on navigation to get it to work. The spot I found is in factory settings> sys settings
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Not that I am aware of. You set the Tasker app as the navigation app right?
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I

So I found I was able to hide the top bar with command (I did not do as root command first) and the system UI bar, but then I lost all touch response except on the bottom bar for heat/air. Do you have any ideas to counter this? I let it sit idle for 20 minute and touch never come back until reboot.

Edit: I found command "settings put global policy_control immersive.status=* " does the trick. And "settings put global policy_control immersive.=* " Puts it back.

I have an app I made with Tasker, it launches My services when not running or opens Google maps otherwise. It works good from the click, just not automatic. Only thing seem to open automatically is system settings.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Try this app...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.autostart
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I will of course try but the problem seems to be it's not actually launching GPS at boot
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Will it launch Google Maps at boot? I'm wondering if the problem could be the app you made possibly?
[Android Head-Units] MelenaHelen:
Thanks for your info. I was seeking this type of information badly. :D
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Yes it does actually launch Google maps. Strange thing is when I push the nav button manually my app runs (it either starts my services or open maps depending on what is it isn't running) I would like this to work so that I still have full function when press the map button. I've resorted to making it open Automagic which returns home if it's the first run otherwise goes to maps.

I removed the method in Event center/smali/com/szchoiceway/eventcenter/AccEvent/Utils.smali that kills apps when going into standby, this seems to be ok so far. There's also a startup method in there with another list of sysAPK which I added my apps to. I will update over I run for a while.

So far I've gotten to the point where I can hide the top bar in certain apps which is great. I ran Nova launcher a bit but everything seems to slow way down if it's not the stock launcher and aside from some different widgets I find the stock launcher good because you can go to home page while radio still playing.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Ok, so maybe the App needs to be trusted or have a specific permission? I'll definetly be interested in your mods once I get my core board back...
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Strangely (and good) once I removed the killApps method call in smali when I start my truck it's already loaded up meaning my apps are still running. I also added my apps to the sysAPKLst which has helped. I'm not sure if I still need the automated tool to keep accessibility but I'm using it anyway just in case. Since I'm using the stock launcher you can't add widgets in the normal fashion but I've made some great strides with Automagic and have a weather widget now that is clickable and opens another bigger widget with weather details. If I used 3rd party media players more often I wouldn't also be able to make a widget for that. Also I found an app called Overlays which can actually put widgets on any screen so I may look into this after I get bored with my current development. Let me know when you get radio back running, I can share what I've found.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
If you're looking for a good 3rd party music app I really like BlackPlayer EX.

I see that Joying has a vertical screen HU in it's offer.

Does anyone have it and can share some more information? Is it FTY-based?

Is the screen attached via a ribbon cable (so it can move it around a bit)?
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Does anyone know how to get the BT calling to recognise the caller?

I don't think its to do with my phone as I've had android 7.1, 8 and now 9... but all the entries still say unknown number.

I have the 7.1.1 Tesla HU

edit: It shows the number and then if you go into phonebook you can clearly see the number against the contact details

It just doesn't link the two?
[Android Head-Units] fake7:
I’ve try to change theme but It show this screen. Can anyone help me, please?
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Just try another theme. Some are just not compatible with your vehicle.

Close event centre and use the recent apps button top right to get back to the settings screen.
[Android Head-Units] fake7:
Could you please tell me how to close EventCenter step by step?

I try to enter setting menu to change theme but I dunno how to get there.
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Event centre will eventually ask to be closed until next reboot so just close it.

Then press on the double boxes top right to see your previous screens and change the theme the same way as you did the 1st time.
[Android Head-Units] fake7:
I can’t find theme setting screen as picture, try to reboot many times. Are there other ways to enter theme setting menu?
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Try opening eventcentre again... and again... until it asks if you want to close untill next reboot.

Once you get into settings you should be able to press the back button to access the system settings
[Android Head-Units] fake7:
So How to open EventCenter again ?
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
I had exactly what you had when I tried a certain theme.

I kept pressing 'open app again' until it finally showed a different option.

It said 'close until next reboot' or something like that.

You then have to fully reboot to get everything working again.

or... re-install the firmware if that doesn't work.
[Android Head-Units] fake7:
Thank you very much it alive now
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
This is really interesting... I would love to have the home screen display GPS speed rather than the OBD canbus.

I've been customising all the visual stuff, themes, buttons and backgrounds etc by unzipping the res folders from the apk's and overwriting them.

... but that would put the icing on the cake!
[Android Head-Units] marcus82:
uhm..so interesting! I was not able to avoid killing of some apps with whitelist... and I'm looking for a some apps to crete customs upper and lower bars.

if we can creat those it wuold be better!
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
There's an app called floating windows it will show widgets as overlay, taskbar app also shows widgets in a different way, and I've just been making my own widgets with automagic and a bit of programming (not much though, just simple scripts to get weather info and such)

Remote start climate control

Anyone with one of these in a 2015 Ford explorer that has remote start? I am trying to find out if the climate control settings work. Will my heated seats turn on when I start it.
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Thanks for that jmckeejr, I'll have a play with them to see if I can get a GPS speed widget on the Home screen.

I have found "drivers widget" so just need to get it on the Launcher screen ... hmmm

Making your own widgets? Now that would be cool :cool:
[Android Head-Units] marcus82:
guys, good morning!

I think I need to wait for hw patch to upgrade my radio to 7.1 with fastbbot etc.. With these firmware I'm not able to install anything like custom control bars , google assistant ...
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
So will taskbar float the windows in our stock launcher?
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
OK so I've had a play with Taskbar and unfortunately it tends to make everything a floating window.

It's like a multi-window launcher and applies itself to all apps, even the music player.

You can get it to work OK but is way more than I need at the moment.

EDIT:

...and that built-in Tesla drop down image (I just use a fully transparent & empty png) covers the windows as well and stops you grabbing them....which is a pain.

If I could get the system to drop down the speed widget instead of the png... it would be perfect :)
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Quick question for anyone who may know. Is there anyway to correct a "fake" Android version being shown on these radios?

I have one that is definitely 4.4.4 KitKat with 1G RAM but is showing 7.1.1 with 2G RAM.

The framework shown is also a lie...
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I see you've already tried it, it works but someone had mentioned having a widget on the stock launcher, I would test it this app. It doesn't allow opening other apps like taskbar but it is only for widgets which can be set up to show on whatever screens you want (on index, maybe at bottom when on radio or Bluetooth, etc).

I made my own weather widgets using automagic and have a black overlay for when I have videos playing to cover the bright top bar, I've also put blank Overlays on the status bar icons so I can quickly get to WiFi settings or anything else I set to open. You can set actions for (click, double click, swipe 4 directions, long press, etc). I would be happy to share my weather widgets if anyone decides they want to give it a try. There's a trial version of Automagic available but I do so much with it I would recommend full version definitely.. A simple speed widget would be possible but I think you can do better with the above mentioned Overlays app and a widget that looks nice.

This is all set in the build.prop file (except I'm not sure how it could fake the RAM, I don't think it's in that file). By switching it to 4.4.4 you will most likely reduce the available apps, some won't install except on higher sdk versions. If you open build prop file you will see that exact line with version you can change to anything you like. Use build prop editor for easiest, or overwrite existing and set permissions correctly.
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Tried overlays but it just wont come up on the stock launcher.

I can set the widget in the overlays screen and everything looks good... but it either kills the app or just stops it popping up on the home screen :(
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
I'll give it a try see if there's a way to make it work by adding to the white list or another way.
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Cheers :) :good:
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
It would be great if we could also get rid of that annoying drop down image.

I made mine transparent but it actually appears translucent and darkens the background... the car is part of the wallpaper I created to match the homescreen design.
[Android Head-Units] arun8:
hi i am also looking for this ,so have you managed to startup maps apps like google ,waze or tomtom go when the car starts ? and run in background ? i have the 4.4 version of tesla style unit in settings i can select to auto run maps but it startup after the booting up and remain on top ,its not good as i don't need it all the time so i have to go to home to get other apps. In my previous car there was a clarion unit when u press the map button its there already for you ,doesn't have to load also it run in background .when above the speed limit it says "you are over the speed limit " even if not using maps . i t think its more like system apps ,Is there any way to do the same thing on our tesla unit ? i have used car launcher it has gps speed dispaly on screen but it only start to work after 3-4 minutes . any solution will be much appreciated :)
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Tried every setting in overlays now and no matter which screen I'm on, as soon as I start musicplayer or radio the HU kills overlays :(

Would removing the Killapps call remedy this? or is it just for shutdown/sleep mode?
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Your modifications look great!
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Cheers buddy

If I can get the lettering bigger it will be perfect... Working on it!

Always willing to share as well if anyone wants the design

TTFN
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
I will once the text is bigger!
[Android Head-Units] jmckeejr:
Did you add it to the whitelist?

I do a lot with Automagic, I have a flow that starts my background processes when they are killed and keeps the accessibility settings from being turned off. You could have it open maps then go home immediately or go to developer options and see what services run then make something to automatically start the services (sending a root command "am startservice {package.name/.service.name}" works). I have been busy switching my weather widgets over from wunderground API to dark sky so I haven't messed with the head unit lately.

---------- Post added at 01:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 AM ----------

For anyone interested in a weather widget I posted mine here. Automagic premium will most likely be required. I have yet to post the status bar widget but will get to it soon.

There's a thread in Russian here: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=877711

We've been ripping this FW apart since last fall, so most of the things about this FW have been uncovered. Either learn Russian or use online translation. Can't help you with that, sorry.

FW is universal for all cars except /system/app/customer.xml which contains lists for car/UI selection. So you can install rooted FW from the thread above. But before that take photos of all your settings (1 open and 2 pwd-protected sections) and save your customer.xml file in some safe location. Once you have rooted FW you can see logcats why your Index is crashing (it's a name of launcher app). Stock audio apps close when you launch phone mirror app because there's a white list in launcher (only apps in this list allow stock player/radio to continue). The only way to correct this list is to apktool Launcher.apk and modify packages in sysApkLst. DAB dongle support has been added in May FW AFAIK. PIP works - why shouldn't it? Phone app is not on top but it's in the upper part of the screen - there are native buttons in later FWs that allow to move this window down or fullscreen (if that's what you mean)..
