I just installed on my Joying UMS03N2 single din with 7" screen. Most functions seems to work ok so far & quite happy, i.e.

CWG set as default home screen, and starts every time HU comes out of standby.

Steering controls working for RealZouLou DAB+ and PowerAmp. (Next-Prev does Station Up-Down for DAB, and Track Change for Poweramp. Vol+- works for DAB & PowerAmp but still testing Waze & Phone.)

Waze & Google Maps seem to launch ok.

DAB+ launches ok with Ingition (ACC) on.

I have one issue: I enabled broadcast intents in the DAB+ app hoping to get now playing data, but these appear in the same widget that displays PowerAmp artist & track name. So when MP3 music is paused, the widget fights to display DAB Radio data and the paused music track at the same time !!

Ideally, the centre multi-widget needs another option for DAB Data, but separate to PowerAmp.

With the Atoto, you might need to occasionally open either the FM Radio or AUX app to re-initialize the MCU if you have CWG (or any other launcher) set as the default launcher.

What I do is open the AUX app, then hit Home (not back), and CWG works fine (audio, steering wheel controls, backup and dash camera, EQ, etc) for days if not weeks. That also prevents it from automatically opening the damned FM radio app at boot and blasting me out of the cabin.

Where it fails and I need to open AUX again is after a very short power off/power on, like turning the car off to pump a few gallons of fuel, then starting it again before the unit goes fully to "sleep". So now I just leave the car running while I pump gas. :)

I also have AUX as a shortcut key on every CWG screen I run.

I've got the ATOTO A6 with the physical buttons. I discovered that if the ATOTO launcher isn't the one that starts up automatically (as in, if I set CWG to be the default launcher), the physical buttons don't work. :(
[Android Head-Units] Croak:
Fire up the AUX app, just like I described above, and hit HOME, not BACK to exit it (basically leaving it running). That forces the MCU to start, should give you physical buttons, amp EQ control, cameras, SWC, etc.

How can I get this to launch instead of Android auto?
[Android Head-Units] :
You can't
[Android Head-Units] piercedpanda:
You can.

In CarWebGuru, go to Settings.

There is a setting to set CarWebGuru as default launcher.
[Android Head-Units] :
Did you understand what he asked? Replace android auto launcher , not android..
[Android Head-Units] piercedpanda:
If you put it that way, then no, I probably didn't understand what he asked... :confused:

I thought he wanted to replace the standard android launcher with the CarWebGuru launcher.

Screen Brightness

Hello, a good idea may be auto-brightness by time or location like app Auto Brightness Manager of PlaySafeGames.

The actual auto mode its darker than the 100% of the screen, and min you cant set it more than 100.

Best regards.

Hi

How do I put the radio fm (rom internal app) in the curve theme? I can only put it as widget and crash screen.
[Android Head-Units] nokian95ita:
Good morning

I use poweramp to listen to my mp3s and mytunerpro to listen to the streaming radio. I'd like the default audio player to be set based on the application I launch so that I can view the correct information on the widget and not have to manually select it every time

Edit

Good mornig as you see in the attached picture this is my personal customization. Finally I can add Tasker shortcuts (are the programs icons) and torque widget. The problem is that after few minute the torque widgets does freeze and don't work. Only way is to restart the tablet but after few minutes is the same situation.

Have you an help for me.
[Android Head-Units] djgus74:
Good afternoon. Something funny happens to me. In the playlist of songs I always appear before the title of the song, artist and album this "rkutf8" and then the rest. Does anyone feel the same? I do not use any poweramp type application, etc ...

HI,

Can I update for myself the list of MCU supported?
[Android Head-Units] E-P-S:
Hi friends,

since the last version(or is it a coincidence because i changed the radio at the same time? my colleague has the same device, with him the errors also occur) i have big trouble with carwebguru.

Some app icons are missing. ok not fine, but you can agree with it.

but sometimes when i start the "app launcher" no icons there. so you have to restart carwebguru and it works

the third problem is that gps doesn't work in the carwebguru. if i start a 3rd party app, the satellites are found.

navigating with navigon or google maps also works.

Turn music/display off when loses power

Hello [MENTION=8396872]carwebguru[/MENTION],

First of all thanks for all your work, the launcher is great!

Asking to you / everybody: I'm using it in a Google Nexus 7, which I am using to add a nice sat navigation / music player system to my car. I'm wondering if there's any way to turn music and display off when the USB loses power (key removed). So far everything works great, however if I am listening to music and I turn the car off, the music keeps playing from the tablet speaker and sounds silly. Is there an option built-in in the app to manage this?

thank you all for your help

Good afternoon. How do I make jetaudio my default player and not the default one in CWG?
[Android Head-Units] carwebguru:
New version: CarWebGuru 2.65 Beta

Good news! I make on optimization, perfomance and internal CarWebGuru API. And now you can download new beta version 2.65 Beta.

Beta testing is public and open - you can join to beta testing on the market page (see in the bottom of the page).
[Android Head-Units] agamemnonn:
Thanks for your great work. Do you think "default launcher" problem has been solved? I mean even if i choose CWG as default launcher, it asks me to use it as default on every restart.
[Android Head-Units] carwebguru:
Yes, on 3 types of head units this probles was fixed! This is hard work, but I hope now it will be worked ok.
[Android Head-Units] fr4nk1yn:
It was asked before but I didn't see an answer. What's the difference between the lite and premium themes?

I bought the themes just to support the app as it's one of those rare free incredible apps. The only difference I saw was the park timer and animations on Spyder.
[Android Head-Units] carwebguru:
This problem "rkutf8" is fixed in the new version 2.65. Now you can test only 2.65 Beta-10 (on the market - beta testing link at the bottom of page)

Yes, I am busy with new update!

Yes, I plan sleep mode in the near future. And I work on internal CWG API - you can control some functions.

Try to test the new beta 2.65 Beta-10...
[Android Head-Units] carwebguru:
No big diference. Some new animation, 1 new state (analog clock). This themes for support of CarWebGuru project.
[Android Head-Units] agamemnonn:
Unfortunately, default launcher problem is still here on my allwinner r16 unit. I use TPMS sensor apk, i guess they conflict. But other launchers they work without problem. Just wanted to give you a feedback. Thanks for your work again.

In all skins i cant setup dynamic visualizer to work with poweramp, it´s all ok for exception of visualizer. it works with CWG player and google play, dont work with Gonemad player and power amp. yes i have the settings to use external players.

[Android Head-Units] Pep71:
Is there a way of backing up and restoring this launcher?

Pep
[Android Head-Units] fr4nk1yn:
Fine, by me. I just bought another to support the app. This and PodEmu has made my install close to OEM quality.
[Android Head-Units] gufoscuro:
That's cool, thanks man. I look forward to see that update :)
[Android Head-Units] surfer63:
By the app itself: I don't know.

But there are lot of backup options possible. There are specific backup programs like Titanium, but I simply use Google backup.

I installed a new firmware on my unit some 2 weeks ago and simply selected restore from my Google Settings. I can even choose which apps and settings. So I had my complete config/apps (the ones I selected) including CWG back, in 5 -10 minutes or so
[Android Head-Units] trycatch:
Hi there, i use your launcher but i have 2 serious oroblems

1 internal music selection is strange, it says no music folder, then no music?

and lastly, is it posible to import gmaps navigation in cwg screen(in left or right of screen) or any nav info in cwg screen?

Hi, Love the app but I have a problem with this installed on a Nexus 7 tablet installed as a head unit in my car. The tablet is installed with the buttons facing down and the auto rotate is fine in the main screen but when selecting the settings screen this is presented upside down making it very difficult to control. Is it possible to have the auto rotate ability to work on the settings screen?

Hello, I am using CarWebGuru Launcher in my Android unit with Intel Sofia3gr (aka Intel Atom x3), Android 6.0.1 in Accord 7gen and it very good for me.

I have problem repeated by users with control music with buttons on steering wheel. Volume +/- of course works everywhere with no problem but I can set different functions (skip, pause/play) only for default music player.

Next, I thied JetAudio and there programmed functions works perfect, but the best music player for me is AIMP which where these programmed functions don't work for me.

However, I found an interesting relationship (AIMP is set up as default music player), when I start JetAudio and close it, steering wheel functions amazingly work for AIMP until unit restart. How is that possible? Maybe there is way to get it without JetAudio?

I have set the track info on the main screen to use the iheartradio app I listen to. Is there anyway to poll this widget every 30s or so so that the song information gets updated? If I take my finger and start to move to another screen and immediately let go, it will update the song information, but not on its own.

Thanks

[Android Head-Units] F00GY:
Hi!

I really like your launcher, it is my favourite one for my android head unit. Thanks for your effort.

I am struggling a bit with the media controls and the multi widget displaying media info.

Using this DAB+ app the widget shows the station name and song title correctly. Is there any way to get the stations logo/slide show to be displayed in the background of the widget as album cover?

Same question for the album cover using the audible app. This app should boardcast the album cover. Trying to play around with KWGT it is possible to build a widget showing the cover.

And at least same question for the amazon music app. For amazon music, it may be not possible. I didn't find a way to do it in KWGT.

Thanks.

No Radio, Bluetooth

Hey folks, read all 35 pages, found a I guy with the same problem but no solution

I kind lost Bluetooth Player, Radio, MCU Settings, Av In and others. These functions/ apps used do appear at the original launcher but not on CWG.

On "Other section" I can see part of the lost functions, but not radio. Using the Steering Wheel control "source" I still can navigate through functions and open radio.

The deal is that I cant add them to home screen. Its not available at app list ou system widget.

Any ideia how add Bluetooth, radio and others on main menu?

Hi everyone,

First of all, thank you [MENTION=8396872]carwebguru[/MENTION] for all your effort in creating such a great launcher.

I am having some difficulty with the music player, and perhaps it is just me not understanding the dynamics of it... I have a 32Gb microSD card with all my music in aac (this is a lot of music, btw). It is all neatly sorted in one folder per album and one folder for each compilation or any other grouping of tracks I like. If I chose a folder in the music browser, I can then use the letters on the right to search, but this is hardly ever my use-case. I would like to be able to search for the folder itself using the same mechanism. Once I find the folder I usually play through the entire album or group either sequentially or shuffle, I almost never search for a song inside a folder.

I understand that a lot of people may have all their music in a single folder, just wanted to mention my usage and see if there is a way to search folders. Thank you!

PS: I went through all 35 pages and did not find anything on this. Perhaps you should create an open wiki and have everyone add to, an arguably crude version of, a user manual? I know I'd be happy to contribute this way.

Hi to all,

Is it possible to change the folder (with a button) in the main menu? I would like to change to the next or previous folder that I am hearing, for example if I have 3 or 4 different folders with music, pushing a button and go to the next folder.

Another issue, I have a problem when I start the Video Player, because the music of the main menu is not attenuate and I need to pause the music.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot!

I do not use the system widgets for this reason. I use "edit widgets" and then replace one of the existing widgets with a new one with an app. That works better.

Problems with latest version of CarWebGuru

been using this for a while and its the best of whats there but have issue when playing music in spotify the artwork is not updating the art work.

The title changes but the artwork stays at the first song played...

Really annoying.

What this app needs are

more configuration on the grid or create your own grid (or why do we need grids at all ?)

ability to change font, font size and colour easier. (most are hard to read at a distance in the car)

proper resizing of system widgets.

Hi guys.

I have a problem with CWG.

Poweramp is the default player. Returning to the car does not resume playback, sometimes it does not see the USB key.

I really like CWG, I would always use it!

If I use the default launcher, the default player is all right ...

Thanks for the help!
[Android Head-Units] surfer63:
That has nothing to do with CWG or Poweramp. When your unit is going into sleep, the usb devices are unmounted. When it comes out of sleep, poweramp or any other player, is "quickly awake", but the usb devices are not mounted yet. Hence the media player does not see them.

Use an sdcard. They are always mounted (and that's also why the mediaplayer on your phone can continue after sleep mode)
[Android Head-Units] dussy81:
Thanks for the reply.

The problem is with an SD card ...

Another problem I have to shut down the car when I play a player, I want to listen to a radio when I start up again, then I need to double up the application to get started. There is no problem with factory lanchers.
[Android Head-Units] surfer63:
OK, clear, but then don't mention it as "...sometimes it does not see the USB key."

This only obfuscates the thread and make people answer you that could have spared some time if you had typed it correctly.
