Not works 1.2.3 for me.

If I open the app ver1.2.3 I see a endless message "Connecting to Bluetooh Service..."

Using the previous version, the app shows a google Window where say the name. But it can't find the "contact".
[Android Head-Units] Salvo-x:
I'll ask you a stupid question,

did you copy the contacts on the car radio?
[Android Head-Units] Super_paulie:
i cant find this answer anywhere, but is it somehow possible to change the wallpaper background for independent screens? my set up uses the wallpaper to divide off certain apps and widgets and that same wallpaper on say screen 2 and 3 doesn't fit with the set up on that screen.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Not yet possible. I asked for that a while ago.
[Android Head-Units] Dbrdmkr:
Hi there.

I got the same issue as it was said few posted ago.

The minimap do not update location when the vehicule start. Then the map do not move when the vehicule move.

To be honest, sometime the minimap work as it should, but most of the time not.

I am on last beta. And try to play with options. Even clear and delete the apk cache. Nothing change.

I got the api key from Google., however direction do not work either.

Do you have any adives.?
[Android Head-Units] SoberXDA:
I've seen an option to run apps on wakeup in the alternative ROMs. I plan to install hal9k ROM and add the "FCC restart" app on wake up. Hope that solves the issue...
[Android Head-Units] Dbrdmkr:
I am under hal9k. I'll give it a try!

I am most happy with FCC.... and really am not going to push for anything in particular to be changed, but it would be most encouraging to know the direction you intend to take FCC during 2019.

I see the current emphasis is on OFFLINE Maps for the MiniMap and associated MiniMap bug fixes

After this is completed :-

ie What existing feature do you intend to fix, expand on

What new ideas do you hope to add

etc
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
I am very happy with FCC too! I really like the built in Autostart settings. Now when the head unit boots, it automatically launches FCC, then my streaming app (SqueezePlayer), then returns to the home page and displays the full screen map. I also use FCC on the Android unit in my HHR with similar settings and have no complaints!
[Android Head-Units] parisisal:
Uhmm, no.

When it works, when I used AGAMA + Mtcdialer I didn't copied the contacts.

The contacts are in the google account.

Should I copy ?

How can I verify the contact in the unit ?
[Android Head-Units] Salvo-x:
you have to try to copy the contacts, in the car radio when you're inside

the standard dialer.

to check, activate the standard dialer and try to find a name you have in the phone book

Two quick question please

(1) How often does FCC check the Road Name ?

(2) How often does FCC check the Speed Limit ?
[Android Head-Units] 007matman:
Ok. I'm giving it another shot. Thank you for replying.

I am using the official release from Google Play store. V 3.220

The date and time display properly in the menu bar. Also, looking under FCC--> System --> date and time it shows GPS time = enable, Auto Date -time = network provided time, time zone= eastern, automatic 24 hr format = off, use 24- hr format = off

It's on the FCC home page and any of the FCC screens that it displays incorrectly. In Android it is displaying properly.

For example, it's 7:24 pm here. In the top menu it shows 7:24 but on the landing page it shows 19:24.

Why not install it and find out?

There is a free version to let you do just that before paying to support the development time.

[MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION] because the Bluetooth icon tells me disconnected while Bluetooth is connected, you can fix I'm using latest alpha thanks
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I was told by Speedfire- some time ago, when he added the Bluetooth widget :-

If you want it to show "CONNECTED", you will need to disconnect the Bluetooth when FCC is up and running, and then reconnect.

FCC can only detect and display the establishment of a new connect, it cannot detect an existing connection... (its a widget programming limitation)
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
to me the written connection there has always been lately does not go anymore, then I did as said disconnected the Bluetooth is reconnected but it is always the same
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Okay, but it shows the connected BT icon, it´s just the naming which is missing.

I think there are not that much units which connect via BT to your device. Just switch off the text as long as there is no other solution.

[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
Sorry, I'm not sure what I am supposed to be searching for.

I tried "spiele XY auf" in Google Play and nothing came up.
[Android Head-Units] bossman4:
Be sure your time zone is correct. Any time I do some fooling around with my Eonon resets or Roms, it defaults to Bejing time. Not good for the auto brightness.

If it still does not work remove FCC, reboot the unit and reinstall FCC. In the past I have done that during the development process.
[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
I have a big circle 'Quick player' in the middle that simply shows my live radio app's current station album art (no text, no buttons).

Is it possible to mute the system when I tap it? (so it's like a huge mute button)

I've tried pressing and holding on it, going to 'Album art' and 'Set action on touch:' but I only get the following options:

Open player

Pause player

Show track list (if supported)

Pause isn't the same as Mute as my live radio would no longer be live when I would unpause.
[Android Head-Units] theNick:
Say "ok google, play station on tuneIn"

You replace "station" with your radio station

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] is untypically very quiet these past few weeks. -- Maybe he is working on something new and amazing for FCC ???
[Android Head-Units] Dbrdmkr:
I set my unit never go off. It is set to sleep automatically.

Actually it does not work this way. However, Fcc force closed often and when it happen the mini map work well. When the unit go to sleep and wake the minima is not working any more

I'll try with the unit going off. But I am sur it will work.

How does the application work on allwiner devices? What gives you the purchase of the premium version? Why do not I have a radio widget?
[Android Head-Units] onmail:
1. allwiner devices - depends. Most users like it (why don't you try yourself?). I like it as well but my FM radio app is not working with the FCC player widget. But that is just a small issue compared to other "pluses"

2. premium version - I bought it to support the developer. But if you need features, go to FCC launcher on Google play and there is a paragraph named == Paid PREMIUM features == ;)

3. radio widget - could you be more specific? Like widget is there but is not working.. Or how can I add the widget to screen...?
[Android Head-Units] Nightmares Off Road:
Installed today and love the app. Willing to purchase premium if I can fix a few bugs. Twice today I’ve shut the truck off and when rebooted all my apps and widgets installed no longer appear. If i quick hold it’ll give me the resize boxes like there’s an object there, but long hold and no response. I have to drag each one to the X and place each app or widget back to the home screen.

Thought it was a one time thing as it worked through the day, but then tonight it happened again.

Is there a setting I’m missing or is my Chinese android stereo the culprit?
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
pity that the developer is not dedicated to solving several bugs of this fantastic launcher, too many bugs for daily use is not so good unfortunately
[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
I'm thinking he should enlist a second or third developer :)
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
Yes
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
How the Hell can you say that when [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] has dedicated 100's , if not 1000's of hours developing this launcher, and for peanuts !!

I remember a time last year when he was on vacation, and even then, each night he worked on FCC, fixing bugs and greatly improving what was already there.

FCC is probably one of the most COMPLEX apps on Playstore.

My understanding is that he basically developed FCC for HIMSELF, because he was not satisfied with what was currently out there, and was good enough to share his work with anyone wanting to try it.

Because of technical complexities, this launcher is designed and developed for a limited number of Android systems, but that number is increasing all the time as he add new Units to those currently supported.

If you go out and purchase some obscure, budget China unit, that is not supported, you cannot blame anyone but yourself, if then you experience issues.

Just because you paid the developer a few dollars because YOU CHOSE TO DO SO does not mean that you OWN him, and can demand that he jumps at your every call ... it's not his work -- it's his HOBBY -- and you probably knew that going in .. so lighten up and stop giving him such a hard time.

BTW, I am also a developer, and I can tell you, if anyone else got involved in this complex app, it would most likely get totally screwed up, and dye -- that is assuming one could even find someone who would be willing to put in the time for next to nothing, while having the technical ability to actually contribute anything to the project.

Thank you [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] for clearly the best Android launcher on the market, and for all your time and dedication in constantly improving it. It is very much appreciated I am sure by the majority of those using it, and you will always have my full support going into the future.

Why, after rebooting the device disappears all elements from the widget and remains empty, the wallpaper itself remains; (

Thank you very much! That fixed it!

I saw where folks were saying that it followed the system settings .it's a little confusing why there is this additional menu but oh well. That takes care of one of my issues.

I'm sorry I have never experienced this, I suspect your head unit or even try to reinstall FCC. I had an issue of randomly opening apps on boot, a reinstall fixed it.

Hi [MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION], i found a bug on the playstore release :

1 - I've three screen :

- (1) a blank screen with clock

- (2) main screen with a big radio/player widget

- (3) screen with big map and little radio/play widget

2 - The main screen is set the second screen. In the setting the option "return always to the main screen is disabled.

3) if I'm in (3) - the screen with map - and I do an action like terminate a phone call, or start radio play from the widget or view the rear camera -> the launcher returns to the main screen (2).

Is it normal ? I think no.

Can you give a look ?

Sounds like you have Screen #2 set as your HOME screen, and after those actions you mention, they system is trying to return to the HOME screen.

Its been a long time since I messed with those settings, but I think there are quite a few options that can be set to configure what is happening.

Hi, all!

I was working on some improvements related to Media Player Widget and TPMS and I need your help in testing them:

1) TPMS now should work with most (I hope all) Chinese TPMS devices. I've added support for some older drivers which crashed previously. But we have an issue with a request for access to USB devices after each (cold?) boot on some devices. You need to press Ok every time for now.

2) Media Player Widget - internals were rebuilt. Two new ways to communicate with music apps were added (Launcher will try them all and choose automatically) for Android 5+ devices. I hope that the widget and music autostart on boot will work better. Please test!

New alpha: FCC Launcher 3.230 Alpha
[Android Head-Units] bossman4:
Just installed latest Alpha through the APK installer. Took the car for a spin afterwards. After the three music program have fired up, Poweramp, Spotify and Player FM (podcast catcher) everything seems to be ok. Have the standard inconvenience of Spotify looking for the internet when it first fires up, but I have downloaded tracks to the unit. I have not played with my phone on with cell service. I will wait for the sun to go down and cool off. Have not used the mini map, yet
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Hmmm... I don´t get Poweramp to show album art on the screen.

I do have 3 player implemented on the main screen:

1. FM Radio --> Switches correct to station icon (if it is set)

2. DAB-z --> Switches correct to album art as expected.

3. Poweramp 3.0 pro --> does not show anything, no album art, no titel, no artist.

Switched back to Poweramp 2.0 pro from playstore and I have a strange behavior in the player-widgets:

DAB-z is paused and Poweramp starts playing. After ~10 sec the widgets show the DAB-z information incl. the album art, but Poweramp is playing.

Workaround is, to pause DAB-z manually and then switch to Poweramp.

Edit:

As long as DAB-z is running in the background this strange behavior occurs. As soon as I stop DAB-z, all information are okay.... so may be some mismatching settings between DAB-z and FCC.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thank you for your test! Unfortunately I can't test Launcher with DAB-z because we don't have DAB+ here. Can you try to find similar issues with some other player?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Some changes to the 4th player visibility in Music Widget

FCC Launcher 3.231 Alpha
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Hi [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION],

after some additional testing, it seems related to the fact that DAB-z is updating the notifications even if on pause.

If I change the settings in DAB-z to close the app on releasing the audio focus, the music information from Poweramp are stable visible.

I field a bug report in the DAB-z thread too, to check if freezing the notification updates on the app if on pause would get this issue fixed.

...but from my perspective, FCC should only listen to notifications for apps which have the audio focus...
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
This is correct. But I need to reproduce this.

AIMP has a similar behaviour (it sends notifications even then on pause), but for me Music Widget now works correctly with AIMP.

This will be the next thing (when Music Widget issues are resolved).
[Android Head-Units] 1-2-Hak:
I have a LM based unit and the volume change on speed isnt in sync. If I adjust using the knob the volume jumps back to it original setting.

Thought this had been resolved?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Sorry, what is "LM"?

My overall understanding is that this issue is resolved. You can check the latest Alpha and check this.
[Android Head-Units] 1-2-Hak:
MCU is MTCE_LM

I am on the latest Beta. Will try the Alpha

** Tried the Alpha - the gesture volume control is in sync but once you move the volume knob it is out of sync. If you move it up it takes a few goes to sync - strange?
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Very cool that TMPS is now an intergal part of FCC -- tried it out in the latest Alpha, and it seems t work well, but the widgets seem a little strange.

Do I really need to see just one tire's info in the widget.. I think not.

What I want to see in the Widget is that the system is working, (Updating ok, USB connecetd ok etc) and that the widget is getting updates from all 4 tires, and that none of the tires are in an alarm condition.

It's only when I get an alarm for any reason, that I need to go to the full screen mode, and see exactly what went wrong, (by clicking on the widget).

So, I am suggesting you add another Widget display option, just to display the Status of the System, ideally including color option (Green all OK, Red ISSUE) - no real need even for TEXT, apart to say its TPMS widget.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]

FCC is the best launcher for android head unit devices!

So thank you very much Speedfire.

Are there any plans for direct support of the new intel airmont devices?

At the moment bluetooth and the steering wheel button control does not work.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
From time to time I purchase new devices to make a deep integration of the Launcher with a new platform.

Usually I purchase devices on the most popular platforms (with a hope that increased sales will compensate costs).

Less popular platforms are in slightly worse position (it may be economically not feasible to purchase them).

My suggestion is for you to write a producer of your device and ask if he wants to send me a test device for integration (I can even return it). Probably no one will send :)

And... there is no guarantee that a platform can be integrated at all. Deep integration requires A LOT of work to investigate and reverse engineer the platform internals (here I am talking mostly about platform's system apps but not only them). Some of the platforms do not allow third party integration at all.
[Android Head-Units] SoberXDA:
Maybe start with the wallpaper? That should be quite easy I think?

Ps: good to hear you are working on the audio widget. Sometimes it works quite randomly, especially after wakeup. Buttons may dissapear at all. Also status is shown as playing, but in fact it is paused. Also the 4th player support is not so good. Sometimes it shows one of the 3 registered players so one of them is doubled... Didn't try the alpha yet.

Maybe an idea would be to recognize the wake event and refresh the widgets then?

I would also work a little bit more on the minimap to get more basic features like estimated time of arrival, also sometimes it does not adapt to the new route.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Just for your information:

The latest alpha (2.232) is uploaded to the Play Store as a beta.
[Android Head-Units] bossman4:

[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
Hi [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION], any suggestions? :)
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Try to install the latest alpha / beta and reboot your device completely. Widget should show album art, not the speed.
[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
Ah, I see. I'm a bit hesitant to install an alpha/beta due for stability reasons.

I'll wait for it to go final and be pushed through the Play Store :)
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Then .. do not expect this to happen anytime soon :)

I do not plan to push beta to the release channel currently (until most beta users confirm that the beta is very stable and bug free).
[Android Head-Units] King Mustard:
Just jumped into my car and downloaded the beta :)

I have another small question:

As you can see above, I have a big circle 'Quick player' in the middle that simply shows my live radio app's current station album art (no text, no buttons).

Is it possible to mute the system when I tap it? (so it's like a huge mute button)

I've tried pressing and holding on it, going to 'Album art' and 'Set action on touch:' but I only get the following options:

Open player

Pause player

Show track list (if supported)

Pause isn't the same as Mute as my live radio would no longer be live when I would unpause.
[Android Head-Units] wanze2001:
Yeah, day/night would be great.

Because many have problems with the brightness of the Hu

I can't see anything on my Dasaita when the sun is shining because the brightness is too low. At PC Radio app I have installed a version in white and blue this makes it a bit better. For me it would be ideal if the launcher has a white / bright design during the day and the dark one at night.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
yup,

I will create some user stories (REQ) for SpeedFire-
