Another issue I just noticed is that the time is always 12 hours out. So if it's 5PM it will say 5AM. I noticed this due to the screen being dim during the day.. I confirmed the time is correct on the unit and I also disabled 12 hour and went to 24 hour just to see. No dice. A reboot did not fix it either. I further confirmed the time issue by changing the auto screen dimming setting for night to full brightness and it went full bright so I know now that is the issue. I'm surprised i'm the first to bring this up. I am not 100% sure at this moment what build i'm on but it's at least the latest in the store. I'll check when I get to this car again.

Is there any way to prevent FCC from forcing itself on top of other applications? On my head unit, it frequently relaunches itself after I start the built in music player, and it's also done it when I launch the default browser. It's especially annoying when I'm trying to enter a URL or any other text, as I have to keep going back and forth until I'm done.

If you are back in FCC development mode, I would like to add my request for some improvement on the Road Name recognition and display.

I had suggested, (just before you took some time off), that a possible improvement might be to have a Dual Road Name Display.

ie

1st MAIN Name = the road current on and confimed to be on and have been on for some time/distance.

2nd Name: new Road name / street, that is NOT the same as the MAIN Name, and has only recently been detected as a new name, and does not stay detected for long, (or else it becomes the MAIN Name)

Either name should become blank if they are not detected for some distance.

Names should be Configurable in Text Size, Color, swappable, etc (ie similar properties to the ARTIST/TITLE in the Player widget.

I don’t know if it’s been considered and discounted already, but the wave SDK might offer some nice alternatives for driving directions etc with the mini map?

Maybe getting CORRECT Road name is a key factor in getting the Current SPEED LIMIT correct as well, which would allow for the re-introduction of reliable OVER SPEED Limit warning Audio. :confused:

My Joying SC9853i arrived and I tried to use FCC on it.

So far so good, FCC seems to be quite stable, but having issues with recognizing the BT stack.... but this was something I expected.

It shows that BT is not connected, but I am able to get calls and make calls using the BT app. Of course it is not possible to use FCC for calls and neither with Google Voice.

There have been some app resets but there is a new functionality in 8.1 that asks if you want to try to fix the app.

I don´t know what this function does in the background, but it seems to work. By the way: FCC is marked in Playstore as "may be not optimized for the unit".

If you need the BT app to may get BT optimized for this unit, I would be able to copy the apk and send it to you. Just give some hint if you want to try to get this fixed or not.

Just drag a widget or what you want onto the bottom of the screen and it'll create a new one.

Hi, can you improve the speedometer widget with some new skins, like an analogic skin for speed with gauges, it can be very nice for who want a cool speedometer on the launcher, add some styles of speedometers rounds and squared, sorry for my bad english, great launcher thanks for your work!

FCC V. 3.220 has been pretty good and stable on my px5 with the hal9k rom until this weekend....

The street name or speed limit elements fail to load or update either within minimap or as standalone widgets.

Anyone else seeing this or have any thoughts?

[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
New alpha is here:

- Optimization of initial installation process. Restart is not required anymore.

- Attempt to check if the player is really playing after wake up (if not - the widget should also be shown as paused).

- TPMS integration: until first data is successfully received a 1 minute delay is added (in case TPMS device is crashing there is a time to disable TPMS integration).

Alpha 3.222: FCC Launcher 3.222

Please check this version and report. If this version is fine - it will be uploaded as a Beta to Play Store.

Hi there

yesterday I tried the FCC Launcher on my PX5 headunit, which looks really good.

I tested only shortly with poweramp, but it seems to have some little problems.

After a cold boot the player started, but with ignition off/on the player doesn't start :(

Is there a special configuration required?

Or is another player working without problems?

And it is possible, to integrate the DVD player of the head units in the quick shortcuts for the player?

It would make it easier for Google translate if you would write in complete sentences with punctuation of your mother-language, instead of throwing some uncombined words into the thread.

That should make it much more easier for anyone to understand your postings.

At least a huge part of this community is no native English speaker... as myself too.

... just my 2 cent...
[Android Head-Units] oddvarr:
Regarding PowerAmp. I am using it myself.

Just rescent i purchased full version of FCC. I then was able to set musicplayer to autostart after idle.

I think it is only fair that we purchase full version if we really like this launcher.

I am developing skins for enigma2 on my spare time. That takes quite some time to do right.

Then I just can imagine the hour spent by [MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION]

First off, I love the number of features in this launcher. That being said, I would love even more to see proper support for the Atoto A6[Y] series of head units. Is this a possibility for future releases or is there a big obstacle to this happening? I can guarantee I would purchase premium if there was official support for it. I have the Pro version with gesture sensor.

I've found a bug with the latest alpha, when I leave the radio on, turn off the car, I turn the car back on and the radio app shows, then it minimises then maximizes and jumps 5 presets without me touching anything, all I've updated is FCC, anybody else having this issue?

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] I’ve got a little bug where when I switch to Apple Music from DAB-Z using player widget everything works fine for about 30 seconds and then the information in player widget switches back to the DAB-Z information but with the music from Apple Music still playing. The only way I can stop this from happening is to completely shut down the DAB-Z app. Is this a fault of FCC or the DAB-Z app? I have updated FCC to the most recent alpha version from 3.220 and the problem is still there.

Also FCC still cannot open DAB-Z in the background it always opens the app and it stays in the app. It also still cannot automatically restart DAB-Z as the last player used, nothing happens. Is there anything I could do to help you solve these problem as these have been like this for as long as I can remember?

Thanks

Guys, here is a new Alpha.

Major change in Launcher running mode. Changed from singleInstance to singleTask. This may give the following benefits:

1) Home button should work much more reliable.

2) Launcher may load faster

Please report on your experience with this alpha (is it better or worse).

FCC Launcher 3.222 alpha v5
[Android Head-Units] Shadow128:
Today I tested a little bit more the HU with FCC on my desk, but I couldn't get Poweramp correct started with FCC

So I searched around XDA Forum and found a thread with a Tasker solution for autostarting.

Now it is working quiet good and let's see over the time, how good it works.

Now I got some more questions ;)

The navigation on the right side of the skin looks cool, but it is only working with online maps.

I searched in thread and Google Maps doesn't allow to use the previous downloaded offline maps?

Maybe it is possible to integrate another navigation software like IGo, Here or Sygic?

But....

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] Thank you so much for the work! :)
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]

the alpha v5 seems to be really stable. No resets since yesterday on my bench unit with Intel Airmont processor.

I´m using it with PX5 settings, so BT is not recognized and brightness settings is not working.... but this is related to the new hardware.

It would really be appreciated if you would have a look if you would be able to get FCC working completely with the new hardware...

Just tell me which apk you need, I would send them to you.

Hi,

i want to draw my own skin.

Can I use the PNG format in order to have transparency zone ?

Can I use the units screen resolution (eg. 1024x768) in order to generate the skin file?

In the standard skin, how can i avoid the icons over the border ?

Thanks,

A couple of little issues I have noticed with it. I’m using a px5 android 8 with Hal9k rom.

1) My Bluetooth name has disappeared from the widget when my phone is connected. Have tried repairing and everything but can’t get it to work.

2) I use dab-z app quite a lot but I’ve noticed sometimes that the player widget will randomly just change from dab-z to Apple Music and start playing Apple Music without me pressing any buttons.

3) when the unit comes out of sleep or restarts the player widget is blank but the sound is playing. I have it set in the dab-z app to start dab-z automatically whenever the unit turns on which means it automatically comes on the player widget, this normally works fine as it should but it does not with this fcc update. I have to change to another player which will appear and play in player widget and then change back to dab-z which will then show and play in player widget.

Also it still doesn’t open dab-z in the background, it always opens the app and stays open and fcc still cant start dab-z automatically if it was the last player used. To start it automatically I have to select it in the dab-z app but then it does it every time no matter what was the last player used.

Great work, man! I have MTK head unit Atoto A6 pro with MT8127. I can do some device specific betatests for you, if you need.

How about integrating iGO navigation or Map2Geo which enables transfering of points or routes between various map apps?

Just a quick question, I'm using the latest alpha on a atoto a6 pro. When I press the home button I get the Fcc logo while it loads for a second or 2 before going to home page. I've not seen this behaviour in other launchers is this a bug or should this be happening?.

Looking forward to optimisations for atoto!

Hi speedfire, I have not been able to take a video of the Sofia speedo issue as it’s too difficult while driving. Is there anything else I can supply in order for you to investigate? I have noticed that the speedo works immediately after a head unit reboot. After it has been asleep, it fails and always stays at zero. This is the same scenario that was talked about previously with another user that did not have root. I do have root.
[Android Head-Units] bossman4:
I have figured out that Spotify has the longest logon and play startup sequence when the radio is hooked up to the internet when it is initially started up (e.g. ignition turned on when within range of WIFI). FM podcast delay startup is less. Poweramp has no problem except scanning the USB drive before it starts up. But on all these applications starting up with page 3, you sense some churning going on when you first push the button of each application. After a delay (varies) you get a brief flash of the particular application firing up and then FCC returns to the page 3 menu screen. Then after a shorter delay the music starts from whichever music application has been chosen.

After each application has been chosen once since startup(and is warmed up), the switching on page 3 between the music players is fairly instantaneous.

2 rapid questions

Hi everybody, i am the proud owner of the paid version of this great launcher for my EONON GA2171S headunit, today i have 2 rapid questions for FCC launcher, maybe speedfire or somebody else can answer those:

1- I've seen that we have the main screen with app and views, and another screen used for screensaver (black with only time)... but is it possible to add another screen ? Cause i did play a lot with the main interface to have it like i want, but i would like to have another screen with some different configuration but can't seem to find out how.

2- On th main screen we can see the frequency of the radio channel we listen to, i also added all the logo from my local radio stations, but is it possible to have the song name and artist like they are already shown in the radio app ? That would be awesome.

Thanks for this great software !

Bug

I would report a bug with notification: It appears for less then a second (i think less then 0.5) and changing duration in settings doesn't resolve the problem. In the past the problem isn't present but in last beta (and also some of precedent) it persist. Anyone has the same problem?
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] The problem still persists where each time the unit sleeps, turns off, etc. it asks for accessibility permissions (please enable accessibility service) when using the recent tasks shortcut you had created for me.

[Android Head-Units] barebackjack:
Ok guys, i found out how to add another screen, thanks that was obvious...lolll

Now for my other question: is it possible to add on front end the name of the song played in Fm radio... the fm radio app show the title of the song and artist, but we only see the radio frequency on FCC front end... possible to get it ?

Also i am looking for a way to cut off subwoofer with a single click... right now i have to go to the equalizer settings of Android, click on the second screen and then click OFF the subwoofer... but i would like to find a way to add a button on main screen to turn it off when i want it off... like when you listen to the news on the radio, i don'T need the sub... i thought about shortcut creator, but i don't understand how it works... any idea for this ?? Even if i already own the paid version of FCC, just for that feature i would be happy to pay again...lolll

Thanks

barebackjack
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I believe the problem is, that Playstore will not allow apps that enable Accessibility service, so such a functionality cannot be put in FCC.

(This has been identified as a PITA before .. thank you GOOGLE !!)

Maybe a separate APP (or maybe FCC "module") could be created, that FCC could run to enable the Service , and that app be hosted elsewhere (ie Not on Playstore - which will prohibit it)
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
I did create an apk to do the same thing but it's horribly slow compared to speedfires way.

Dave
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
What is Speedfire's way ?
[Android Head-Units] AdekP:
I've already touched on this problem. Speedfire wrote back that he is unable to capture RDS data from the FM radio.
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
He has a show recent tasks that can be tied to buttons. I don't know if it's an action, intent, etc.

Dave
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
So you think the play store would make it so every time FCC launches or even when it's just in standby I have to re-enable accessibility service? Perhaps there is a way I can automate this with tasker if that's the case?

[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
My understanding is that if a Program "programmatically" enables "accessibility Service" , then it can open up the potential for exploits, that the user may not be aware of. However, if the user themselves enables "Accessibility services", they are then aware that they have done so, and are responsible for any consequences.

Therefore, Google, makes it a rule, that any program distributed on the Play Store, is not allowed to "programmatically" enable "accessibility services".

Any developer using Play Store to distribute their App, (ie FCC) must abide by this GOOGLE rule, or else Google will remove their App from distribution on the Play Store.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Yes, always the same fu**...

There is a way to work around this issue if you are rooted:

You need to use

Tasker (download from playstore)

Secure Settings (download from Playstore)

Create a task in Tasker:

Start (4)
A1: Secure Settings [ Konfiguration:Tasker: MyAccessibilityService - Enabled Timeout (Sekunden):1 ]
A2: Warte [ MS:150 Sekunden:0 Minuten:0 Std.:0 Tage:0 ]
A3: Secure Settings [ Konfiguration:FCC Launcher: assistant_volume.FCCAccessibilityService - Enabled Timeout (Sekunden):0 ]
A4: Warte [ MS:150 Sekunden:0 Minuten:0 Std.:0 Tage:0 ]

In FCC /System/Autostart:

First entry: Choose Tasker

second entry: Choose the "Start" Task

Set wait before Autostart (10 sec) and Wait between apps 3 sec.

have fun ;)
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
Is this a fairly new thing? It used to ask but only on initial boot, now it asks always.

Also [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] I've noticed another issue recently. Not sure what build it started as I don't use this unit that often but speedometer, street name, don't work any longer. I have confirmed GPS works fine and my navigation and speedometer programs I use outside of FCC work just fine. I noticed this as my speed dependent volume stopped working, any idea what is going on with that? I can get logs if need be but given it worked fine before I assume you have an idea what's going on.

So I went ahead and did this and while it does work on first boot it doesn't run the task again out of sleep. Rather thinks outs already running as I don't think tasker closes when it sleeps.

I don't see the option

second entry: Choose the "Start" Task in rcc auto start. Under Tasker tasks there is nothing listed. Course if I manually run the task in tasker it works also.

If only if I could get Tasker to be killed when it goes to sleep I'd be golden
