On my PX5 Xtrons with Malaysk ROM I have no stuttering in Spotify and WiFi automatically connects. Don't know about data usage. You can always go back. Find stock ROMs in different thread. Always wipe data when changing ROMs. So you can just try if it works for you.

Did you have stuttering with default firmware?

I'm not sure if I should upgrade to this ROM. Do you guys know if this ROM also enabled the option to show actual notifications in the status bar in the top? Like Sygic and Spotify do. Also Sygic has the option to show instructons in the notification panel. This does not work on the default ROM it seems. When I shut down my HU with the default ROM I quickly see the real notifications from apps (Sygic and Spotify) in the statusbar, but I always want that in screen obviously.

Is there a way I can edit the default widgets? I want the music buttons to go to random next and previous song, in stead of just the next in order even though it should be random.
[MTCD Software Development] droc.noles:
For what it's worth, I've been using Malaysk's ROM for quite some time now, and I have the stuttering issue. Granted, I don't use Spotify, but essentially all Android playback is affected by stuttering on my Dasaita PX5 unit.
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
Really? FM and USB/SD (mp3 files) are perfect for me, just Spotify is horrible.

Do you know if I can show the notifications from other apps in the status bar? I miss that in the stock ROM. Together with widgets in the notification panel ofcourse.
[MTCD Software Development] droc.noles:
Notifications seem to work properly in the status bar for me, but because of the stuttering that seems to plague my unit when trying to multitask, especially with applications that use data, I don't try to run much more than an audio source and maybe torque at the same time.

I'm totally miffed by the stuttering issue, because it seems like some are affected while others are not, and there's no guaranteed pattern to reproduce the issue on my end. Just every few minutes I get a one to two second stuttering blip on local playback from any Android source (radio is totally immune to stuttering for whatever reason), increasing in interval the more I try to do with the unit. The on screen response is still silky smooth for the most part, making the issue all the more baffling.

I think you'd be pleased with the layout of Malaysk's ROM - it's well put together in my opinion. Give it a shot.
[MTCD Software Development] semaj4712:
Actually it seems as though Tasker events are not triggering at all... Anybody else having this problem? Or a solution on how to fix it.

Notifications are fine, but the stuttering is pretty present for me. I use spotify, also tried pandora and it was there as well. Havn't noticed it on radio but I dont really use the radio.

I think the people not reporting the stuttering are probably either not sure what we mean or maybe there is a few good units, but I think overall there is some sort of issue.
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
I'll try that then. Was trying to control the HU with Tablet remote app, and now my HU won't show live traffic in Sygic anymore, and won't connect to me MS phone. Damn software, good excuse to reinstall the ROM I guess. I've got the files on a SD. Ready to reinstall after work. Would it work if I don't wipe data and cache? Don't want to lose my software, but it's okay for now. Would every update to this ROM mean you would lose everything?

I'm starting to wonder if I made the right decision with this HU, so many flaws.

I was used to a Pioneer AVIC which had dedicated buttons for FM frequency or skip song (depending on what you're doing). Would this be possible with this HU? I tried the media keys for next/previous on a USB keyboard, and tried the keys from the app Tablet remote, but they seem to trigger Google music app! Really annoying. Can it be made that those keys somehow trigger the FM app or default music app, depending on what's playing? That would make my life so much easier.

To skip a song or switch to a different radio station I now have to swipe from top (stupid full-screen Sygic), press home, press music or radio, then press next, then press home again, then press navigation again.

Before I could just click the next/previous button and my radio station or song would just switch. All of that while driving with a single click without looking at my screen. I don't have buttons on my steering wheel, but can live with a keyboard or something else that connects tot he HU.

edit: Is it somehow possible to alter the behavior of the hard buttons? Maybe make the return button do home instead, or make it go to home with long-press. Or maybe with a physical keyboard?
[MTCD Software Development] alukarulz:
For those who have Tasker/MacroDroid issues not running tasks/triggers during boot/screen on follow these instructions:

Download Online or pay for it in playstore if you want to support the creator (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jozein.xedgepro&hl=en)

Then enable the module in xposed.

Open the app. Scroll down to More Triggers and click it.

Select Boot completed and scroll all the way down to Multi-action.

Select Add -> App -> Tasker

Go back to Add and select Home.

Do the same thing for Screen turned on trigger.

You can also do much more stuff such as App State which which can trigger an action when opening an app or activity.

This works in all head units because it uses xposed root functions to stay running while the car is off and is absolutely great for all head units who have xposed installed. It's a must.

---------- Post added at 09:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------

Probably because you disabled Google Voice App. First before you disable it you need to turn off default voice app from settings or you unit will not boot unless you reflash update in recovery. Go to settings -> Apps -> Settings Icon (Top Right) -> Default Apps -> Assist & Voice Input -> Assist App -> NONE.

To fix the bootloop just reflash the update.img and if that doesn't work do a wipe and reflash through recovery mode. The recovery mode for touch buttons is using the reset button. Use a pin and insert it through the reset hole, then hold it for 10 seconds until the leds flash. Then keep holding it for 10 seconds. After that quickly lift the pin and push the button again for 5 seconds. To move through the selections use the reset button or touch screen.
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
This app seems interesting! Might also help me with some clever shortcuts. Would this work in fullscreen applications like Sygic? I really should try this ROM with Xposed and this app. Can this be used to remap the hardware buttons? Looks like so in the screenshots? Is there a way to control the FM and music app (default ones) via this, or commands?
[MTCD Software Development] ChromeSkull:
If you've got an E46 you can easily fit a 12v socket in the boot as thats where your battery is (right hand side under the plastic panel).
[MTCD Software Development] ZeligPC:
Have you considered buying a Bluetooth button media controller to put somewhere un the dashboard or steering wheel?
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
I have, and I am. But I don't think it will work for me. I tried to connect my phone via an app (Tablet remote) which sends next/previous commands to the HU, but that only controlled Google Play Music. Not the Radio (FM) or default music app. So I don't think a BT controller will work? Would be great if it's possible! If there's a way to 'route' those commands to the default Music and Radio app I would instantly buy it for sure.
[MTCD Software Development] ZeligPC:
In my car I have steering wheel controls connected to HU with canbus and they work with every app, so I supposed that a BT controller could work the same way, but I don't know for sure (never tested)...
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
So the controls work for the FM and music app that are stock? Do they always work, or only when they're playing?

Do you have Google Play Music installed? Maybe that 'steals' the input or something... What buttons are they bound to? Simply media next/previous?
[MTCD Software Development] talds_alouds:
Is that hard to do?
[MTCD Software Development] ChromeSkull:
Here's how one person did it.

However if you want to do it cheaply just get any 12v cig lighter socket with 2 wires (make sure to have a fuse on the positive wire) then wire it directly to the battery clamps. Not recommended but will work.
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
I can control music with my swc buttons for every music app i have (stock or Poweramp) even having it on fore or background.

I can switch to next track of sygic is in foreground

In my case the px5 ia connected to a can-bus decoder but previously i had a mtcd based on Intel with no can-bus and the swc buttons once mapped to the corresponding actions worked as well

[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
Interesting, thanks. I'll try to uninstall Google Play Music, and see if it does more.

Can you also test if the FM (radio) app supports this?
[MTCD Software Development] zteel:
Anyone else have Google Now working but when you try to send a text or make a call, it just doesn't do it?

[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
Interesting! That's great news for me.

Would you have any idea which keys in Android these are? Or are they just the next/previous keys that are default in Android? Can you have a look in factory settings maybe?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Aa pointed before...I am.under can-bus decoder, but, on my previous mtcd I did map to next/previous under steering wheel learning app that is available or under setting...never under factory settings as you can map there is the headunit physical buttons...not car swc buttona

Bluetooth Media Button instead of SWC?

[MENTION=744370]ikerg[/MENTION], [MENTION=8291382]Bose321[/MENTION], [MENTION=6307210]ZeligPC[/MENTION]

i have no rral steering wheel control, but i tried this media button instead, but it does not connect via bluetooth:

www . amazon . de / FAVOLCANO-Eckiger-Bluetooth-Smausng-Smartphones/dp/B01K19UF3Q

(remove spaces in link)

On my samsung phone it connects as keyboard, but replaces my custom touch screen keyboard app on phone by samsung original.

Any alternative/solution?
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
That's what I've been looking for. Tried it via phone, but that didn't control the music or radio app.

I just installed this ROM. The new launcher seems OK, not the best looker, but it's doable. Installed Xposed Edge for some gestures. Swipe down from top left corner to go to home (handy for Sygic full screen) and double tap on the left and right for media next/previous. However! The next/previous buttons don't do anything for the radio or music app! How the hell does that work with wheel buttons?! What kind of command is sent to the HU? Is it possible to replicate that?! would be great!

Notifications seem to work now, that's a plus. The radio and music app and amplifier app are really ugly though! Can I get the original ones back? They're much nicer.

I can no longer seem to connect my phone via BT. The HU just doesn't appear on my phone anymore...
[MTCD Software Development] talds_alouds:
I've got a navi button on my unit, but when I press it, it asks what app I want to assign it to. I downloaded sygic, but sygic isn't in the list. Sorry, I'm not an android person.

Yes!

Gestures? Nice idea!

Original are possible! Have a look at the description of malaysk.
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:

[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
I don't understand. My next/previous buttons do NOTHING. How the hell can I make it to work? Is it some kind of command? My "home" gesture works fine, and I hear the media keys are triggered, but just nothing happens. I'm pretty sure if I install Google Play Music it will work like before.

Too bad my Sygic live traffic stopped working...

This ROM looks interesting, but I didn't notice any notifications so far.
[MTCD Software Development] alukarulz:
Didn't read all your questions sorry. Not swc do not work.
[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
So what did you mean?

All I want is to control my music/radio in an easy way with gestures or dedicated buttons. If there is anyone that can help me, would be great. I hope it's possible with a command or something.

[MENTION=3590033]Malaysk[/MENTION] will this firmware works with an Allwinner T3 device?
[MTCD Software Development] alukarulz:
It has to be a PX5 RK3368 Chip. From the image I see you have a quadcore, the px5 is octacore. So no.

Download CPU-Z from playstore and check the chip model.

Any idea why my notifications no longer show suddenly? They were showing 2 days ago, and now nothing. Doesn't matter what I enable or disable in the settings. Am I missing something, or is something blocking it?

Does anyone know if the Radio and Music apps (default ones) are possible to edit so they would listen to the media next/previous buttons?

I really am wondering if it's possible to control those two apps without the app open. Is there a special command? Special button which it listens to? I was hoping I could do it via Xposed. Do the steering wheel controls work or not? Some people say they do, others say they don't. I am not sure anymore...

Also my phone won't recognize my BT anymore, so annoying...

Also the sound quality of this HU is pretty poor. Having android in your car is cool etc, but not that good with ****ty hardware and simple things like changing songs or radio station without having to open the apps...
[MTCD Software Development] Peppergrinder:
Hi, I noticed that the ttgo voice was always changed to one of the recorded voices after closing and restarting the app. Deleting the recorded voice sorted out the problem.

[MTCD Software Development] Bose321:
Nope... Too bad, would be cool.

Serious question, does anyone know if the source for the FM app is available somewhere? I could add support to Android Auto. The music app is obviously replaceable with Play Music.

Also no Sygic. I believe Waze is coming, but for now Android Auto isn't really that great. Especially with the bad offline map options for Google Maps.

I've fixed a part of my struggle with this HU. Installed Google Play Music. This app actually supports the media keys, and has a notification widget. So super simple to change tracks while driving.

The FM radio app however doesn't support any of this. I can now switch songs easily with Play Music with Xposed Edge by having a touch edge on the left and right. Work pretty good! But like I said, the radio app doesn't wanna listen to this! How can it work with the SWC?? How is that different? What kind of command or intent is sent?

Does the DAB app support this?

Is the Radio app source available for me to add media controls?

Also, does anyone know a good media player? Google Play Music is OK, but I only want it to play songs from my USB, but it finds everything on my HU. Including stupid ringtones from Sygic. Does anyone know if Here Maps supports non-TTS voice? The sound isn't muted while TTS is going on for example.

but i have two issues.

first: my headunit turns off when acc is off after a longer moment. i dont want that at all, at least not within 1 hour wich is the maximum amount of time you can give the unit. with the original GS firmware the device never turned off. i want the opportunity to have it that way, because when i
