Has anyone running Android 11 or 12 gotten the custom logo option to work? When I add my custom logo to the specified folder (storage/emulated/0/Download/CarWebGuru/logo) I get the message in CWG that "logo images not found". Testing on an older tablet running 7.1.1 and one with 10 works.

EDIT: After doing some more research, this appears to be a restriction that Android put in place starting with 11 that prevents apps from accessing local storage. I was able to decompile the apk, replace an existing logo with mine, then recompile the apk. However, I don't like how my logo is formatted against the background (the circle), and I couldn't find that in the list of png's to try to delete it. So for now I'll live with the default CWG logo until maybe I hear back from the DEV team.

[Android Head-Units] flyguye:
Greetings Everyone,

I recently got an 12.3in Android Screen fitted to my Audi A5 (2014) coz I wanted to have Google maps & Waze for Navigation & Spotify for music. I say "Android screen" & not Android head unit is because it

1) does not have radio antennae connection (only GPS & 4G anenaes along with SIM slot)

2) It still connects to the Original MMI multimedia head to receive FM radio & car systems info/settings.

All google maps/Waze Navigation & Spotify audio comes through the original head via "AUX" input. So whenever I select FM radio which is only available from the original head unit it automatically disconnects from AUX input & plays audio from the MMI head unit. Likewise, if I selected Spotify from the app drawer from the "Default Launcher", it automatically connects to AUX in the MMI head unit to receive the audio input. Not the cleanest setup but it works. What I'm not too happy about is the Default launcher. I cannot customise it, hence why I'm kinda leaning towards CarWebGuru (checked a few others out but like the skins on CWG)

So after reading all 40 pages on this, I am needing some guidance. My Android screen runs Android 9.

From my understanding,

1) Google "MAPS" navigation is not possible within intergrated CWG interface (something to do with breach of TOS under Gmaps navigation imbedded into 3rd party app I believe), only turn by turn navigation is allowed?

Somehow this feature is available in FCC using your own API key. How is this possible? Can this be done with CWG as well? I have added my own API key to CWG but cannot find how to get navigation map to work. Also, why does map in some themes keep zooming in & out continously? Quite disorientating at times.

2) Why are some installed apps not showing up in CWG app drawer?

3) In the customise section where you can choose what apps or widgets to insert, there is this "API widgets". There are 5 of them but adding them seems to do nothing. I cannot find any documentation with regards to this. How do we go about using these?

I apologize for the long post & if some of the information I am seeking has been addressed in earlier postings that I may have forgotten but hope some of you who have better knowledge can shed some light.

Thank you.

Hi

I have a 13.6" Android 11 head unit (GT6-CAR / GT6-EAU) and I have purchased CWG Premium as well as the Road 2 theme.

All works well, very good job! Thank you, but I do have 1 or 2 issues that I hope I can get rectified with some advice.

Issue 1#

Default audio player that comes with CWG starts playing a song for 1 second then just stops, I can skip and go to previous track but all tracks do this. I have also attempted to create playlists but still no joy.

Issue 2#

If I do install different music players and I make them the default audio player the play / previous / next track buttons do not work and just continue to function as if the factory music player is still default.

Issue 3#

Many of my installed apps ie: default android music player is not seen on the apps screen of CWG and also long pressing the default music player of CWG and changing the action does not show me the default android music player. Is there anyway I can get all my original home screen apps menu apps to display in CWG apps menu?

Would appreciate any help I can get
[Android Head-Units] benrita:
Why all apps don't show in CWG is a pain and the only reason I can't use this launcher.

I use Android Auto alot but because it's missing I don't use CWG.

Car Launcher Pro & Agama both show all my apps.

I use an AAWireless dongle that launches Android Auto on startup but if I return to CWG home page I then cannot go back to Android Auto.

I contacted the developer through email in Play Store and explained the problem only to receive a reply stating they did not understand, no effort to try and correct the situation even though others here have mentioned missing apps.

Sticking with Agama launcher.

From the app. Swipe up from the bottom and click "Set Theme". You'll see in the upper right corner the New, Premium and Free themes that are available.

I just purchased the Pro version but I still can't see my music tracks or select my car brand. Does the Pro version have to be activated first? Where can I find the license key or something similar?

hi all,

I have installed CWG in my 8227L headunit with HMI JC.D.Q.F3.01.2021.05.21.08.30 and MCU TS907.190518(W) and like some other launchers that I have tried in the past there is always the problem that I cannot find the stock apps like Radio, CD and music player.

how do I make them visible to the system?
[Android Head-Units] benrita:
Have tried refresh, uninstall, reinstall but no good.

It's a shame this development is dead, would love to use CWG but no fix forthcoming makes it useless for me.

If nothing else works here, I'll be damned disappointed.

I bought the Pro version and it's still far from perfect. The switch assignment hardly works at all for me. He accepts the change, but it doesn't work.

Collecting money and then leaving the users out in the rain is not possible 😠

Wenn hier jetzt tatsächlich nix mehr gehen sollte, bin ich verdammt enttäuscht.

Ich habe die Pro-Version gekauft und die ist noch längst nicht ausgereift. Die Schalterbelegung geht bei mir so gut wie gar nicht. Er nimmt die Änderung an, aber funzen tut's nicht.

Hello, I bought CWG pro and road 2 theme. I need to use split screen on my stereo system. It has capability. The problem is, when I try to integrate the split screen, I cant see the CWG as a program. I mean, if I´m on the main CWG screen , then I press splitscreen the only options to use are the APPs I have open, but not CWG. What im I doing wrong? thanks

I might have missed it somewhere in the previous 41 pages however I can't figure out why the album art is blurry, faded, fuzzy... I disabled cwg player, I'm using Poweramp, which I understand has/had issues with blurry album art, however mijn looks fine when using poweramp on it's own, just blurry in the cwg theme. Is this maybe a 8227L issue? Do I need to redownload album art in a different format/resolution?

Hello people.

Is there a way to customize the playbutton? I tried to change the icon by long pressing the button. We all know what happens then.😀

Then i tried to long press an empty area so the green boxes appears. Then tap the playbutton when green. That will bring me to the widget and construction area. I can change the appearance of the playbutton by choosing a png file. But if i do so, the new playbutton won't have an action programmed to it. I have to longpress it again and change action to playbutton in the player area. And so we are back where we started.😢

Please help.

Hello, does anyone know if or where i can find the car info setting in carwebguru ? The car ino that i am talking about is the settings where you can change the options to you car, like tyres pressure, follow me home lights, interior lights and so on.When i switch to the default theme that came with the android headunit i can see the car info settings but when i switch to carwebguru i cannot find that option anymore, anyone has encounter this problem ? Am i missing something? Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] AlphaBravo:
Yiue

You're missing that this launcher doesn't/cannot replace your stock launcher/UI.

Now, to find your desired app or setting, you've to dig into the stock settings and then you'll find those options.
[Android Head-Units] ctldsg:
On the stock launcher/UI i have them.When i changed the launcher i don`t have/see them anymore, but the settings are there on the stock launcher that the navigation came with.Is there a way that i can bring the settings into carwebguru launcher? Or do you know any launcher that have them? Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] AlphaBravo:
Try FCC launcher or Agama Launcher
[Android Head-Units] ctldsg:
I already have Agama launcher installed, i actually installed Agama before webcarguru, but also in agama i can`t find the car info or car settngs option.In FCC launcher do we have this option available ? Thanks!

[Android Head-Units] gduck:
Cheers!

If the usual screen is not displayed, remove it and try another one. So far I have seen 3 types, for me for my old Peugeot car, e.g. C500CarInfo.apk is the good one.

- Car Info_CanBaseCarInfoActivity.apk

- Car Info_CanPSARzcCarInfoActivity.apk

- C500CarInfo.apk from car_apk.zip
[Android Head-Units] ctldsg:
Its working, with both CanBaseCarInfoActivity.apk and CanPSARzcCarInfoActivity.apk which shows a lot of informations and settings.Thanks a lot, this was exactly what i was looking for!

Hi and Hello @All, just a short question. I#ve install the actual CWG version with Playstore, but i cannot use the contact app or -,much more better - can install directcall icon in a theme. Within the contact app the phone button is not active and i have no idea why.

How can i create a directcall button to a contact phone number?

Can anyone hepl me or have someone some ideas. My Radio is a MIC AV9V2-Pro in a VW Sharan, my phone is an iphone.

Thanks for support
[Android Head-Units] gduck:
It is not entirely clear to me what the error is. Can you upload a picture?

For alternative lauchers, you can download some missing apps ("icons") LINK ;)
[Android Head-Units] Theo_Retiker:
Hi, thanks for the links. I will try it with that missing apps and - if it not help - upload a photo. We'll keep in touch.
[Android Head-Units] Theo_Retiker:
Okay, i have test it with your apps with no success. I cannot call a contact within the android contact app. I think there is a missing 'link' between contact app and Bluetooth call. If i use Bluetooth directly i can take a call. But this app isn't useful and i cannot create a shortcut as a widget or direct button.
[Android Head-Units] sandpita:
Press and hold the phone icon then select the Bluetooth phone app.
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
You can't, they're part of the theme. Instead, try adding some widgets to that section like I did to help cover the lines up.

Overall, the application is very nice and extensive, but it irritates me terribly 😉 Is it possible to at least change the font color? Because when you switch the day/night mode, you can barely see anything in the day mode. Is there any way I can contact the developer of the theme application?
[Android Head-Units] mreps07:
has anyone integrate maps in custom theme? and make it rely on gps not mobile data or wifi? and how to change font type
[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
In addition, is there a way to create / edit a theme on a pc instead of spending countless hours outside freezing in the car ? I've tried with bluestacks emulator but I dont have all the different car based apps needed to install / configure like phone, gps etc.

If anyone comes accross a theme similar to factory car, or can make me one please let me know. Im looking for similar to mercedes info unit but with addition of selected widgets.

So as I scroll through main icons the widget for that selected icon appears. If I press on the widget, the app opens full screen.
[Android Head-Units] ms009986:
Anyone have any success getting playlists to work? CMG seems to support them, cz you see some whenever you click on the music notes icon. In fact, the two default playlists seem to be smart playlists. You can add a playlist there, but you only seem to be able to make playlists that you manually add tracks to.

I have tried putting m3u lists on my flash drive full of music and rescanning but CMG takes no notice. Are you supposed to use a different kind of playlist? Are you supposed to put them in a certain folder?

Thanks!

I recently got an Allwinner T5 head unit (K2501) and tried CWG. All functions work great for my usage and I really like it. But I have one annoying problem. Everytime the unit powers up, CWG does not auto start. I have to hit the menu or home button of my stock launcher for CWG to start. Already set the default launcher as CWG in the head unit settings and also Android settings

Any solution to this problem?
[Android Head-Units] MrSchmidthead:
I'm having the same problem with a ZWNAV unit purchased from AliExpress under Aotsr.

The Technical support from Aotsr it TERRIBLE.

Also, it shows in system information and is sold as Android 13 but a benchmark test shows it is only Android 10. So they are spoofing the information.

I use navradio+ app with carwebguru launcher. I faced an issue. I can't see Radio logos. Any thoughts?

Remove the Radio/Music widget and install Ubiquity Music Widget which will show albums covers and radio station Icons.

Look at my example.
[Android Head-Units] hipkid:
I already checked with Notepad++, no special symbols available.

From the API attached, which one should I choose?

Maybe you could identify somehow what key the widget is using, or add an editable option to insert the key.

What about weather widget? What is the update frequency?

Car mode?

Thanks for this great app :highfive:, just a suggestion can you implement car mode, like in the app CarHome Ultra :confused: where the app overrides the default launcher while your device is connected to your car (usually by Bluetooth)
[Android Head-Units] austinac:
Hello,

I sent email to you about the crash issues of carwebguru, but seems no response. I installed the latest version (2.5.4) but it still crash if I start the app. . The head unit in my car has a customized Android 4.4.2 OS installed.
[Android Head-Units] alaintxo:
I think exactly the same, very small font fof my device. If It would be possible to change the font in the edit option, would be perfect.

Other point, I can not change the bacground in the case of the Range skin, could it be possible??? Resizing the widgets would help me to adapt the launch to my taste.

Thank you again for take into account our sugestions.
[Android Head-Units] carwebguru:
Hi! Some themes do not allow to change background (for example Range).

I plan to make resizing of widgets in the future.

I have a little problem with this car launcher.

I use newest version from the AppStore and poweramp as music player.

When I listen music in all title mode with shuffle it’s all fine but when I start your launcher my play title go to 1 of x.

Is this a bug?
