Please send me more info on this
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
This function (which stops PCRadio and FM) is built-in into FCC Launcher. It should have worked without any xposed modules. I have made some changes based on your feedback however.

Please try to disable xposed module and use the latest beta (which I upload right now)
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
I disabled all closed modules and it is still not switching between PCRadio and other apps. Rather it just lowers down PCRadio sound level and it is still very auditable in background of all other apps. I tried it also with BT and FM radio and it is the same behaviour. Btw, when I close other app, PCRadio sound returns to normal level. So it looks like it catches PCradio/other apps switch events but the problem is that PCRadio is not turned off properly.

Then I repeated tests with xposed module. Turning off option for FCC built-in support.

It worked as expected. Switch between PCRadio and other apps really was turning PCradio off as well as other apps off when I switch to PCRadio.

BUT that works only until first time I turn PCRadio from FCC launcher. From widget control buttons or anything else in FCC that is turning on PCRadio (for instance if I turn on option to resume player after BT). Then it starts mixing like in first place when FCC biotin support was turned on (but now it is turned off, and it I checked in settings).

Also I noticed that last player sometimes get restarted after BT even that option is turned off.

Hope you get idea about what is the issue with PCRadio not muted on switching.

But please bare in mind if you are poking with system sound channels that it is not desired to mute system sound as other background apps (like GPS Navigation or speed camera alert) should be using it in parallel with other apps. Only PCRadio (and other players, including BT as well) should be switching on change.

we use a launcher.sh file in this custom mod.

The launcher.sh dictates what happens with ACC_ON, OFF, and Resume

I think Resume is a cold boot

ACC_ON = wake from sleep

ACC_OFF = turned off your car

below is how I'm trying to get mine setup as of yesterday.

starting spotify in the background and playing

killing spotify + my launcher on off ( to hopefully stop my unit from cold booting on next start)

97) # ACC_ON - execute on key on
sleep 5;
$spotify
sleep 30;
$play
;;
98) # ACC_OFF - executes on key off
am force-stop com.spotify.music;
am force-stop altergames.carlauncher;
;;
99) # RESUME - executes on resume of system
sleep 5;
$spotify
sleep 30;
$play

;;

What I assume is happening with the FCC launcher, is that the normal sofiaserver will kill almost all processes when it goes to sleep. I'm betting you have a background process for the gps that gets killed.

We could manually add this to the default server's no-kill list or you could add an option to restart that process when the unit wakes from sleep, if you can find something to go off of :)

The mod I posted above gets rid of the kill server, but I've had some problems where the unit fully turns off overnight instead of remaining in sleep. This is something we cannot modify, so I'm trying to find the happy balance between my automation needs and keeping the unit in sleep over at least 24 hours.

This is the list of processes that are NOT killed on ACC_OFF with the stock sofiaserver. A lot of these aren't even on the device, lol.

Any progress?
[Android Head-Units] Roerbakeitje:
When he has time there is progress..
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
I believe he is preparing long waited release build. We here mostly use beta and we lost from sight how stable release is old and lacking many great things we enjoy in beta. So it is time to refresh release and provide all users with great new features like skins, minimal, lot of customisations etc.

So be patient. It is honest to give him some time to finish his work on behalf of all users.

In meantime, if you like to do something waiting to new betas, you could help in promoting and spreading word of this great launcher that truly brought our units to new level. Write about FCC in you favorite forums and talk to friends. I did it and found that later helping newcomers in setting up their FCC environment was joyful and cut waiting time like magic.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Yes, that is true.

I am trying to prepare a long waited release of the Launcher.

Does anyone have any critical issues with the Launcher now?
[Android Head-Units] liahe:
Hello.

In new release Allwinner will be supported?

Thanks.

I know about these requests from AllWinner users. Not in this release. But I have made some research and there are some promising findings which can allow AllWinner integration in the future.

[MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION] don't forget to be better visible in play store . Under tag auto and launcher. :silly:
[Android Head-Units] nwskipro:
Here just to say your thought process behind the auto-brightness implementation and promptness on the altitude widget are awesome. Keep it up, the world needs more developers like you
[Android Head-Units] yuvalmesika:
First I must say I love your launcher.

The following issues are not critical, but I will say my own wishlist:

Player widget:

1. Make play and pause work with radio on Joying units (Sofia 3gr)

2. Add option to resize icons ( or make them smaller)

3. Detect if music source changed ( ex:Spotify to radio and back)

4. Resume playback after call

5. Resume playback after sleep (ac off)

Speedmoter or other widget:

LolAllow two rows one for image one for value ( like the layout in the combined widget)

CPU usage,CPU temp, memory widget

Notification:

"Now playing" text on notification area (ex 88.00 fm, or song title from Spotify)

The FCC shows in the notification with exit button, what's the idea of exit a launcher? Is it possible to disable this option?

Dashboard:

Allow to select max number or screen(I wish I could set it to one) or prevent adding new screen when installing new app.

Moving app between screens is really hard when you drag the app icon up it almost impossible to drag it to upper screen

When fresh installing the launcher and selecting no screen,

The screensaver is enabled and the background by default is black ,at first it looks like a bug until I selected - for screensaver screen, is it possible to add an option to disable screensaver?
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
Player switching is issue me and several other users reported and he is working on it.

I suggested him to implement general player switching functionality, which will automatically close last active player when starting new one. My MTCB unit is doing that for built-in players (FM radio, music, video and bt) but it should be the same for all other players FCC is supporting. (I'm using only PCRadio beside stock players, and he is working on implementing that switching - I hope very soon we will have good switching for at least PCRadio - I don't know for other players as I don't use them).

Regarding Screen Saver, I thing there is option to turn it off. I did it as I don't use it. But I can't recall where and how I did it. So go through settings and look for Screen Saver section and I'm sure you will find how to turn it off
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Ok guys, this is happening!

FCC Car Launcher v.3.0 is released.

Just for your understanding - this whole thread is a path from the last release (v.2.350) to this new release (v.3.000). More than 200 betas were posted and many great suggestions from you guys were implemented.

I hope to keep new Release up to date more often than it was before.

Here is the apk as well: FCC Car Launcher v.3.0 Release
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thanks :)

I changed description and added new screenshots.

I think that app promotion is very dependant on rating set by the users.

As a user I don't like those distracting "Please rate my app" windows, that's why I intentionally didn't include them in my own app.

If you want to support it, please rate in Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ru.speedfire.flycontrolcenter

:o
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
Just wanted to congratulate you on great work! I really enjoyed how FCC evolved, and I hope for even more inspiring time afront of all of us!

Thank you and I wish you Marry Easter!
[Android Head-Units] Petesky:
How about putting a video up of your app in action , I've been following this thread but the app seems

quite complex , I use car launcher ag simple and reliable, but would probably switch if I could see it working
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thank you pa.ko! Your input was valuable :)
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Sure, but it needs some efforts to do it properly.
[Android Head-Units] sezerbaris:
Unfortunately, the minimap problem has not improved.
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
I understand you completely. I'm using FCC from beginning of this thread, I'm following it regularly, and still I'm not sure of each and every function. Some things I setup months ago and now I cannot recollect how and where in settings you can find it.

So I agree that for such complex app it is really needed some help and instructions.

I think he produced number of animated pictures and small clips, but as he changed design and moved things around I'm not sure if they could feel reused.

Anyhow, your idea to have some (separate, not one huge) videos or animations showing basic and some advanced procedures would be great for not only newcomers but for everybody.

Until then, please ask here for help and I'm sure lot of as as well as dev himself will be glad to help you.
[Android Head-Units] sezerbaris:
You explain about minimap. Will you solve the problem?

We expect a long solution.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
I've uploaded a new release. Please check.
[Android Head-Units] Zeze21:
So first of all I want to say thank you for your time and efford to make such a great launcher.

But I have several questions:

1. I bought your App via google Play store. But apparently my Joying Device is not compatible (the play store says so) - even though it is - i just installed one of the betas i found in this thread - and it works. Is there any way that either I could make my device compatible with your app or you your app compatible with my headunit? It would be great if I could just update it via the app store.

2. I somehow managed to remove the minimap - how can I get it back (as it is - at least in my eyes - one of the most amazing features of your launcher)?

3. The launcher chrashes when I try using a widget to adjust the radio. (Maybe that is just a problem with the beta I am using)

4. The widget for volume adjusting seems to do not adjust the volume (but shows adjustment - i mean if I press the "lower vol. button - the widget shows a lower volume but the volume of the device stays the same

5. I know this a long shot and probably not possible at all but i just wanted to ask - is there any way to use waze maps as minimaps - as they have a lot more information to offer than google maps.

I have a Joying Jy- UM128p2 with a Rockchip PX5 2 GB Ram

Thank you so much for your help.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Hi

1. I don't know the exact reason why it shows as non compatible with PX5. I made some changes now, maybe it will help. Anyway if you've installed apk you will receive updates via Play Market.

2. Go to app drawer (hold your finger on empty space -> Apps) and select Map icon. You can also assign show/hide map action to any FCC widget (on tap).

3. If you can write LogCat log - please send me the report (see first post of this thread). I've also fixed several bugs in the version 3.002 which is uploaded to Play Market.

4. Maybe your device have some new way of volume control. If your device is rooted please send me all apk-s from system/priv-apps folder.

5. This is not possible unfortunately. Google allows to integrate only google maps. However since you have Android 8.0 you can try to use split screen feature (FCC Launcher on one side and Waze on another), but I doubt it will look good enough.
[Android Head-Units] sezerbaris:
again disappointing. There is no change. Unfortunately, the minimap does not wake up from sleep.?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Please send me a video just to better understand what it looks like. Better with LogCat log, but this is probably hard to do.

Install problem on Android 8 Head Unit

I tried installing (release and beta) on my android 8 Head unit (mtce PX5) - at first nothing appeared until I manually added a widget - then uninstalled and reinstalled. Now the main skin appears.

Virtually nothing works and the main launch screen is mostly unresponsive... I can go into settings, but that's it. It only shows Settings and Apps. Spotify play button etc are dead. Minimap responds though... All permissions were granted.

Any suggestions?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Today I had similar issues in Android 8.0 emulator. Works fine on previous android versions though.

I will try to investigate this.

when he goes to sleep the minimapi kills the sofia server. It is not possible to wake up later. The only solution is to reboot the device.

Beta 3.002 mtcb 5.1.1

Having this issue for awhile since 2.5 betas. Want to check if anyone encountering same problem?

-Randomly screen starts flashing. Touch interface unusable.

-However wheel buttons work and able to change mode.

-Does not happen on stock launcher

-unable to capture a log for this so posted a video

[Android Head-Units] Zeze21:
Thank you so much for your info.

One question remains (i haved tried to find an answer here but unfortunately didn't)

Is there a possibility to save the maps for the mini maps on the device - just so that i don't need to download them all the time anew?
[Android Head-Units] pa.ko:
I think minimal uses Google Maps, and there you can download offline map for some area.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Wow. I've never seen this bug before.

This is unfortunate that the log is unavailable :(
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Cache is automatically managed by Android / Google. As far as I understand some data is cached for some period but downloading of offline cache is not available (and is prohibited if I am not mistaken).
[Android Head-Units] jun81:
Its so random i have to try to get a log.

Thank you for the great work!

[Android Head-Units] Roerbakeitje:
Realy Nice Speedfire looks real good. I gonna test it. Can you please think about . When creating a shortcut folder that I can set a icon? That's helps me alot
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
I've investigated this request - it somewhat hard to do. The easiest way for you is to change icon of the first app in the folder - so the folder icon will be changed as well. This is not the best solution, I know, but there are no quick options here.
[Android Head-Units] sezerbaris:
You do not care about our problem.

[MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION]

Did a new installation today. I noticed something.

In the first setup. When I not set one widget on my homescreen its going in a loop. (Black screen . With notification setup homescreen)

In previous versions there whas a notification that gives the rights to set widgets. That's not there now. Is this a bug or did you that with a reason?

Ps my device is still in setup loop at this moment.

Also with the restart device the same setup loop.

Tomorrow I delete FCC and try again.

Dear friend, yes he insulted you first and I agree it was not fair. And exactly contrary to rules he is calling for your ban.

But your remarks on developer are also very harsh and I agree that your attitude is not acceptable.

First of all, if you have paid and you are not satisfied it is your fault and problem - you should try free version first! Most of things you complain on are testable in free version. So if you have not tried it thoroughly, you have no rights to complain and ask any special treatment from developer.

You have not been cheated so please show some dignity and live with your fault to test prior to pay.

Yes, you can ask developer to pay attention to your needs, but he already explained to you that he did tried to resolve issues. And if he cannot (at this moment) resolve them, or do something you would like him to do, please be reasonable and respectful to his efforts and priorities. Yes, to priorities also, as he may be doing something else like implement new features of interest to all of us or to some groups of users (with specific he or so) or he is just fixing some bugs that brother us who also paid as you did.

I hope you will read this message and understand it in right way. We all can see you are jounior member here, and you have no 'thank you' achievements yet. Yes, XDA is showing your 'thank you' score on each and every post just because XDA core policy and culture is that helping others is main value and achievement. Not paying. So instead of waving around with your money, try to help others, earn some thanks and respect. Then people will respect your opinion, as well as your wishes and even demands. Because demands from good people, which earned that attribute by truly helping others, are worth of consideration. And demands from people whose only credit is their money is worthless around here. True, there are lot of places where it is your money that is sole important thing for you to get attention and respect you desire, but it is not here.

pa.ko, it's probably a translation issue since he uses good translator. I've tried to talk to Malay a few times that way and it never works right. He understands little of what I say. It's hard to remember sometimes that we don't all speak the same language. Oddly I think both of them are russian and they probably can just talk to each other much easier in Russian.

Now you earned thumb-up from me. :)

Please try producing some logs. And, and especially if you are Russian speaker, write to dev in private message on XDA (look into his profile) or via email you may find on PlayStore app info. You will better communicate and explain him issues, symptoms and other details than here using translation. He is very, very dedicated and helpful. But we also have to help him.

---------- Post added at 07:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:12 AM ----------

Ah yes old good Malaysk... He really was a victim of translator :p he would probably get more from suing translation services than from all our donations....

Yes I see now that all this mess is about translation and no bad intention indeed.

But it is important to note that newcomer was not first to start with insulting. And it was not problem with translation but international insult.

We should not allow seniors to do exactly what we punish juniors for.

I think we all should send that message clearly.

I call it like I see it. if someone comes in and starts demanding something from a dev who is very helpful I'm going to call them out for it. If people don't like it, well they can ban me for it. I couldn't care less. I do a lot more to help others than anything I take from here these days.

Hi, I am an FCC Launcher user for a long time.

I wanted to ask if there any ability to setup a Play\Pause action to a steering wheel button? I didn't find such an option in latest builds, and thread search don't give me any requests about this function.

I use PowerAmp as a main player app, and miss this function a lot.

Previously I used MTC-Service for steering wheel controls, but since there is such a function built in FCC - I decided to not to use MTC-Service anymore, but as I said - I miss Play\Pause button functionality on steering wheel.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Good idea! Done.

Please try this beta: 3.007 beta
[Android Head-Units] cyberdelia1987:
Wow, so fast )

Thank you, will try this as soon, as possible )
[Android Head-Units] cyberdelia1987:
Just tested it, works fine! Thank you very much!

One thing: Play\Pause via steering wheel button works a bit slower than a widget play\pause button. Maybe because of it require to send intents to all the supported players. Just an idea, don't know it for sure
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Not exactly. Intent is sent directly to the currently playing player. The delay is because wheel interception needs some time to cancel the built-in wheel button's action.
[Android Head-Units] cyberdelia1987:
Or this is the delay to detect a double click, because I used a custom button interception. Will try to reduce the double click detection delay, thank you for the idea )
[Android Head-Units] xtracrispy:
Thanks for a great launcher! I have some questions for us folks who have a 100% LCD head unit without buttons:

- Is it possible to add a permanent nav/launcher bar that persists through apps, to go back and home?

Left side, or even bottom would be perfect.

It'd be a killer feature and help so much with usability.
