It seems that they're quite difficult to integrate with, but your files can help. Do you have a com.szchoiseway.* device? You can check names of "system" apps on your device and compare with this name.
[Android Head-Units] wanb1i:
1. Fixed (I found the setting in the Joying settings and your app was now listed, now it stays)

2. The speed accuracy is really not a big deal to me, I just thought you'd want to know. Next time I go out I'll check it with another speedo app and let you know.

3. The Volume Widget does not work on my Joying PX5, so the autovolume won't either?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Before going further please check that you selected Rockchip and "new PX5+" series in FCC settings - System - Advanced.

If yes I will need your system apks.

No manual manipulation with the Player Widgets was required.. everything updated 100% with no need to go in and re-adjust anything.

I have up to 4 to 5 version of the Player Widget on a single page, with most of the pages having at least 2 Player Widgets on them, and on all pages, all the Player Widgets updated correctly, with their correct settings. :).

Did not try to restore an old backup ... I have a backup made after Player Widget Migration, and should never need to try to restore a pre 3.180 settings backup.

[MENTION=9325785]Scopesys[/MENTION] here is the link for you to test on AllWinner device: 3.180c

Click several times on MyTest2 app and see if brightness is changing or not.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
You got it !!! Each time I click, it increase by a few steps to Max Brightness, then the next click after that, it goes to level 0, and starts over again :)

As far as ROOTING my Allwinner, I think I will hold off on that.

I think it may have been rooted before, and some root tests say it is rooted, others say not.

In any case, since you have a rooted Allwinner, it might be better if I stay Un-rooted with what might be the original Rom, so I can test with Original Rom ...

@Speedfire-

Any thought on the user being able to modify the SPOTIFY shortcuts.

Currently they are a small circular Graphic, that is often too detailed to make out what it is, and the very small Text that is really too small to read while driving.. and neither can be edited.

Not that important in the big picture of things that can be enhanced, but maybe one that can added to the ever growing "Wish List" :)
[Android Head-Units] tebukan:
Hello there. I wish you good work. Do you think the integration of google maps? igo navigation can also be?
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Why can't you just put a SHORTCUT to your Unit's Equalizer App on the Screen Saver page ??

It's not a if you need to monitor the Equalizer setting all the time, or even change them very often, but when you do, you probably want the App's full screen display in any case while making any adjustments.
[Android Head-Units] tebukan:
Thank you for your interest. I just wanted visulation for the image. solved with another application. thank you anyway.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:

Hi Speedfire!

Now Google Maps works perfectly but your minimap sometimes works, sometimes not!so my issues Is not Google Maps related?

If i want to make minimap work i have to fully restart my Joying radio(i use fastboot to avoid full restart and this Is the issue with your minimap that mostra of the time doesn't update )

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]

At what times, and for what reasons does the "Full Screen, grey background with the FCC Logo appear on the Screen. ?

Is it just when FCC is restarting, both intentionally, or after a crash. ?

I am seeing it happen very frequently on the Allwinner unit, during what should be normal operation.
[Android Head-Units] tebukan:
Hello good day. Can you initially have your car emblem option instead of the FCC logo?
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Most Head Units allow you to select a car Logo when the Head Unit starts up.

Does not seem necessary to show it again when specific apps are starting ?

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]

Personally, I much prefer FCC to show the FCC logo, and at the same time, the reason why it is showing this Logo , especially if it is there because FCC has just crashed and is restarting due to crash.

Maybe display that info as an option, set in FCC settings.

Would be most informative during beta testing.

As would some type of Error Log file, - even if the user does understand all the error messages , at least it would help in testing, and be something simple, non rooted users could submit if appropriate with their bug reports.

I suspect there are still lot of Exception Errors still happening, that are probably in many cases going unnoticed or being ignored.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
This logo can only be "hardcoded" (set in xml). Because it is loaded as an application Theme before any activity is loaded. Therefore code execution is not possible during this period.

Regarding restarts on AllWinner. I also notice them, but log, unfortunately (or fortunately?), doesn't show any crashes. It seems like the AllWinner system just hard stops FCC Launcher for some unknown reason (no clue in the log).
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Do you also have a Sofia unit as all other with this issue? (I personally can't reproduce it on my personal FlyAudio device, test PX5 and AllWinner devices as well as in emulators).

Please try this version (I've updated there Google Services version from 4.0.2 to 4.2.0 maybe this will help): FCC beta 3.183
[Android Head-Units] Roerbakeitje:

[Android Head-Units] musicscore:
Bought the premium version to support the great work of Speedfire. I have a AllWinner T8 and it looks like FCC car launcher is not yet full stable on the AllWinner. But I believe due to the great work of Speedfire and the testing of the beta testers like Scopesys (I will also test) FCC car launcher will become stable on AllWinner and become the best car launcher on the market. Thanks for the great work.
[Android Head-Units] Smess1210:
Yes it is a sofia mtcd unit, I'll try that beta this evening & report back.....

[Android Head-Units] Julian75ts:
My unit is Sofia..

This evening i'll try the last beta and report the risults?
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
OK... so not possible... good to know,

I do not recall Allwinner "hard stopping FCC Launcher" when I was testing with the 1st few Allwinner beta versions. Maybe I just was not aware, and it was giving a Blank screen that was not so recognizable.

Will try installing one of those earlier versions and see if it was that frequent then. If it was not happening back in earlier versions, then it may be something more recently added/changed.

One thing I have noticed with t Allwinner, is that while "FCC Restart" app works, "RE-Boot" app does not. Is this to be expected ie Re-Boot not yet compatible with Allwinner ?
[Android Head-Units] Joecool92:
Since 1 or 2 updates (beta) the music player widget random dont get track infos after a song change of spotify. The cover changes but the track info is the one of last track or some tracks before.

Hi!

I have installed it in a PX5 MTCE, it is working fine and I payed the premium version.

One question, or request. Is it possible to get the weather temperature from the canbus? Right now I can only found a weather widget but it needs internet.

Thank you!
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
CanBus is a difficult protocol as it varies from car model to car model and it is very hard to investigate and support. You can check OBD2 widget if you have a bluetooth OBD2 dongle installed.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Yes, there is no a built-in command in AllWinner to reboot the device (which is surprising). However, I just added a reboot option which will work on rooted AllWinner devices (it will ask for a root permission).

I got a set of inexpesive Steering Wheel switches for the ALLWinner.

(Same ones as I got for the Car & the Px5... the Allwinner ones will also be spares for the car).

The Px5 Wheelstudy app allowed for the definition of both short & long presses.

The ALLWinner steering wheel switch definition software that can with the Allwinner, only allow for a Press (no separate short & long definitions).

Is this an ALLWinner failure, or do I just need different Wheelstudy app for the Allwinner ?

ie Can you define both Short & Long Steering Wheel switch actions on your Allwinner ??

Sorry to correct you, but this is working like charm and at least MTCx devices should all support it: How to display outside temperature from canbus as widget

I whas playing around with Fcc launcher.

My Idea is This . Add a splitscreen mode on fcc launcher OR a splitscreen template.

By clicking right a shortcut IT is visible on the left. So i can use fcc always and my favorite apps. Without Any problems.

Also when you have NOT supported music apps IT Will be the solution. Make a shortcut and click its open on the right screen.

Also when you have a other navigation app beide maps IT works. Please look at the video what i mean.

[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I tried using Split screen with FCC, and found that FCC does not allow it's size to shrink much below 75% of the screen. Maybe I am doing something wrong .. I don't normally mess about with split screen. In any case, not sure how much I would use that feature... enough going on to distract one as a driver with just one app running full screen... two apps on smaller split screens just seems to me to be over complicated, and more distracting when driving.

Maybe I am biassed, as my HU has to be placed quite low down on the front console, so its not really possible to be looking down at the screen, and being aware of what is happening out the front of the windscreen .. not good when driving.

One of many feature of FCC that I like, is that I can map almost every screen control function I might need while driving, to steering wheel buttons, making it almost totally unnecessary to touch the touch-screen to control the unit. So, no hand-eye co-ordination needed .. only need is the occasional quick glance at the screen to see what the current ( steering wheel button selected ) page is displaying.
[Android Head-Units] Ben.suffolk:
I notice that we are often asked for a logcat file to help report bugs / crashes. But this can only be done if you have rooted the head unit. However DAB-Z has an option to generate one and email it by just pressing a button. I wonder if its worth including that feature so we can pass relevant files over without having to root the device?

I'm sure the developer of DAB-Z would be happy to help if [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] asked for the logging functions.

Latest Version ??? What is the "Latest Version" ??

The Latest version yesterday, may not be the latest version today, and may not be the Latest version tomorrow.

Please can you specify the Version Number, and not just say "Latest Version".

I am sitting here with a working unit, with version 3.183, and am now reluctant to update to any later version, because I do not have a clue as to what version you are referring to when you report an issue.

To be fair, I also have NO IDEA what version I will be downloading if I go to Play Store, and download "The latest Version", because it does not tell me on Play Store.

The only way I can tell what version is on Playstore, is to Install it, and then look at the "about" in settings. (Or am I missing something ???)

So Please, fellow Beta Tester, when you report things not working, please specify the Version you are referring to.

And [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] PLEASE can you make sure you update the Playstore description to display what Version you have uploaded to Play Store.

You often put some very brief description a to what has been changed, but you never seem anymore to also add the updated Beta Version number.

With so many changes, and so many Beta release in quick succession, it would be really informative, if there was a Change log - Ideally in the App itself, where the "about" is.

I greatly appreciate all the updates, and the quick responses to Bugs and feature requests, but sometimes I feel like it is getting a little (actually a Lot) difficult to follow what is changing, so that makes it really difficult to do any meaningful testing and reporting of new or old issues.
[Android Head-Units] ab1702:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] I too have problems since latest play store update(non beta). Player works fine etc but the actual launcher sometimes gives me a notification in the middle of the screen saying that it needs to close so the only way to fix that is to let the launcher restart. This never happened before. Px5 device. You can’t determine when it will happen, it’s random.

[Android Head-Units] cennaciri:
Thanks for the quick reply. I will try and let you know. I hope the button remapping works. MTCDtools unfortunately doesn't work.
[Android Head-Units] WouterGrimmie:
First of all, let me apologise for posting this in several topics.

The reason for doing this is that I have a couple of questions regarding devices and software I use combined, so posting in just one topic will probably not get me all the answers. Hopefully I can get some answers here and some answers in another topic and then combine them into one solution :).

I have a Mazda 2 (Demio in some countries) from 2012. It came with the original radio and has steering wheel controls.

I replaced this radio with a Pumpkin AE0273B Android head unit. I'm running Hal9k Rom with FCC Launcher.

So here come the questions, I have been looking for answers in these topics, but usually there are so much results it feels like searching for a needle in a haystack.

1) When I start the car the radio boots up nice and smooth, however, radio playback does not start automatically, I have to push pause and play for it to start, did I miss an autostart setting somewhere?

2) On the right side of FCC launcher (in the layout I like the most) there is a Google Maps minimap. Can you load a different app in this area? For instance Flitsmeister?

3) By the best of my knowledge my Mazda 2 uses canbus for steering wheel control, however, I seem to be unable to get it to work. I know in the Hal9k Rom there are menus where all kinds of canbus protocols can be selected (mostly based on car brand). Non of the options I selected however seem to work.

I have been told by some people to buy an extra canbus communication module, however I fail to see why that would be necessary, as both the car and radio should be canbus compatible, I believe I'm again just missing a setting somewhere... Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

---------- Post added at 11:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 PM ----------

That is actually interesting, I would like to run Flitsmeister on the right side of my screen while the left side shows radio and app controls. But I'm not sure if it is possible to replace the minimap with Flitsmeister. So perhaps splitscreen is a nice solution to that problem...!
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I think that you are asking for something that is not as simple as it sounds.

(ie Not really possible)

MiniMap is part of FCC.. It is not another app, that can be just replaced within the FCC interface.

You are effective asking..

I have the FCC clock displaying on my FCC Page, Can I replace that with a totally non FCC related App, and have it display where the Clock was.

If your head Unit supports Split Screen (ie can display Two apps at the same time), then you might be somewhat there, but FCC does not seem to want to Minimize past about 75% of the screen size, so any app that is displaying on the other side of the Split screen, beside FCC, has a very limited, narrow display.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Guys, sorry for that freezing bug. It seems I have found the reason. This was caused by launching the widgets configs during a one-time migration from old players names to the new one. I thought I had deleted this part of code but unfortunately it remained there.

Because of such a significant issue I need to make a release of version 3.184 without beta-testing:

- Remove freezing (which was caused by one-time migration from old player names to new one)

- Maybe some performance improvement (by moving widget updates into background threads)

Now I'm crossing my fingers that this release will not cause any other serious bugs. If anyone could test this version in advance (while it is in the process of Google Play review) I will be glad: Release 3.184
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
May I put your answer in FAQ (I am thinking of creating it)? :)

This question becomes more and more often
[Android Head-Units] millab:
I have a similar issue, but in my case the names update correctly but the album art remains frozen. Often a complete device restart will solve this for a short while and then it returns. On older builds it was happening with both text and image so it is doing better than it used to.

Also I noticed that this only affects Spotify. When I switch to radio or another app the image updates for that app, then when I return to Spotify the original frozen image returns.

I am running 3.183b on MTCE PX5 - HAL9K 3.1 ROM
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
FAQ sounds like a great idea ...

Almost as good as a Change Log .. but not quite :p

YES, of course you may .. assuming I am correct ;)

As far as I am concerned, it's your Forum, Anything I post becomes part of the forum, and you can do what you want with it
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Regarding changelog. I understand your position, but this is really difficult for me now.

I try to post changelogs here and in release notes on Play Market.

I tried to find a way to automatically get release notes from Play Market to the app when this is requested by the user (e.g. About tab is opened) but I haven't found such an API. If you will try to find that would be awesome.

Manually write release notes in the app (and manually delete the old ones) doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Wonder what it's pixel resolution is ?

That would be nice... From what I have seen, not all USA FM radio stations transmit the same format RDS info, some do not transmit anything at all .. according to my Px5 AM/FM radio app.

I had resigned myself to having to manually enter my Local Radio Stations into FCC, with names and Artwork. I assume if RDS info can be displayed, it will have priority over any manually entered Radio Station info ?

Do AM station transmit RDS info - not that many listen to AM anymore - or do they ?

I believe that Russia has DABs, so developing and testing RDS might be a challenge ?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Currently we mostly have FM radio (with RDS where possible). We will not have a DAB+ digital radio, because it was approved to develop digital radio in a more modern DRM+ format (skipping DAB+). Therefore I cannot test DAB+ by myself unfortunately.

Regarding RDS on PX5. I would like to add it, but I haven't found a way to do this. AllWinner is the only platform which allowed me to intercept RDS data.
