I assume that your unit has nothing to do with any MTC*.

The same is for CSN2 units, even if they are PX5 or PX6 units. The underwear is completely different from MTC* units. The same should be with your STM device.

You can support the developer with your system apps if your unit is rooted.
[Android Head-Units] Johnh757:
I always buy the wrong headunits lol ?

Malaysk has a rooted ROM for my unit, I'll look to install it.

Assume a logcat is required to help further development?

I use FCC TPMS.

My music and youtube sound are intermittent. Is there any way to prevent TPMS from interfering with the channel?
[Android Head-Units] sambhasanbiswas:
Does your fcc tpms app works long enough time? Mine stops reading maybe after 45mins
[Android Head-Units] Ken.Y|Taiwan:
I have used FCC TPMS tool.

I just remove the USB receiver of the TPMS and the sound returns to normal.

The FCC TPMS app has been working in the background for more than 2 hours, and the sound is intermittent.

Hi all,

Here is a new beta Fcc Launcher 3.440_test16.

I tried to restore Google Drive backup function

This was a difficult task because of Google's unexpected transfer to the new API which has a poor documentation as well as new restrictions introduced.

Please test
[Android Head-Units] khoaitaychienvn:
hand down the best, bought premium after 5 mins testing it out on my Intel chip Android Head Unit. THank you dev.

Is there anyway to manually turn on audio focus for an app? Because I use a local navigation app and it seems not to having audio focus. When it announce turns or speeds, it streamlines with music audio which make it too soft to hear. Thank you
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Hi. This change should be done by this nav app's developer. There is no other way as far as I know.

[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Hi SpeedFire- I´m running into the same issue.

See attached log file.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Same issue on my side.

For any reason this "amazing" forum software does not show up my earlier posting.

View attachment 5139753
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thank you for the log.

Let's check one thing:

1) Do you have a folder "FccLauncherBackup" in the root of your Google Drive? Probably not and Launcher failed to create it for some reason.

2) Can you please create this folder manually and try to backup again? (I think it will fail again)
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
I had 5 folders named as FccLauncherBackup on Google Drive...

Just downloaded and deleted 4 of them, but still the same issue. No upload possible.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
1) Don't forget to delete these folders from a trash can.

According to log: "The user does not have sufficient permissions for this file.".

The issue is caused by the new restrictions introduced by Google. I didn't have this error on my account, I will try to reproduce it on another account.

2) When you select Restore from Google Drive do you see the list of backup files?
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Okay, workaround as following at least working on my side:

Clean up the Google Drive. (you can download the files if necessary before deleting them)

Keep up one single, empty folder "FccLauncherBackup"

Empty trash folder

Try to restore Fcc from Google (should be without any results)

Try to backup Fcc to Google

After I followed this way, I am able to backup and restore Fcc as expected.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thank you! This is useful.
[Android Head-Units] Bettman66:
With the new beta, I can also back up in Google Drive. But I first had to install the laucher on my smartphone and initiate a backup. Then a pop-up asked whether FCC Laucher is allowed to save in Google Drive. This pop-up was not displayed on my head unit and therefore an error occurred. Thanks speedfire for this beta.
[Android Head-Units] fbrx:
Trigger the phone voice calling from the HU

Hi,

wouldn't it be possible to add a functionality in FCC to trigger the phone's voice call mode? This would be an awesome little addition, and

a feature that is inexplicably absent in my Erisin px5 headunit. This would allow for example to "voice call" talking directly to the phone,

like is done in any modern car by keeping pressed the phone button in the steering wheel.

Technically I mean something like what is discussed in StackOverflow about the AT+BVRA command (sorry I can't post a link it seems)

....stackoverflow.com/questions/16610811/how-to-send-at-commands-based-on-bt-hands-free-profile-in-android/16854373#16854373

Thanks for any opinion

Cheers

Is the latest beta working as a launcher without the split screen functionality? Looking for it to not be saved in recent apps.
[Android Head-Units] okij:
Yes, it is not shown in recent apps and the latest beta overall is working very stable. Also switching players via the Player and the Mode widget was greatly improved and is working well now.

Thanks to [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] for the improvements in the latest beta! :highfive:
[Android Head-Units] crazyg4merz:
Hello, I just switched my headunit to an Intel SC985i Android 8.1 based one and now the homescreen music widgets doesn't change title and album art on music change. I'm using Spotify. Before this I was using MT3561 Android 6.1 unit and everything works. Is this a known issue? I tried patching my own unkill apps list and whether I add "Fcc and Spotify" or only "Fcc" to the unkill list the problem persists. Is this a known issue? I'm using the latest stable version. Also, I have autostart last player and even when paused enabled. Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] khoaitaychienvn:
Is there a way to lock all widgets after a happy setup so that my mistouch wont mess with it?
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Long click on some free space on your screen and you get a small lock symbol down right.

Click on it and the screen is safe. To unlock go the same way.

Fcc Launcher 3.440_test16 from post #7114.
[Android Head-Units] elabjer:
Hi guys.

I updated to the latest version today (3.441) and FCC started restarting like crazy.. literally like 3-4 times in a row. I uninstalled it and restored 3.440 from my Titanum backup, but now control between Poweramp (also at latest version) doesn't work anymore :(

Occasionally "stop" will work, if I first start play from Poweramp itself, but changing tracks or even launching Poweramp from the album art widget, just won't. It used to work perfectly for me all the time, now I'm stuck.

I tried looking thru this really long thread for hints, but I couldn't find a somewhat similar problem.. most of you seem to have elaborate multi-app setups, whereas I only use Poweramp.

Can somebody please advise what I could do? I don't remember ever having to do any special tweaks or setting for this FCC <> Poweramp binding to work.. what else could I try?

UPDATE:

So, I figured I might as well try wiping all the data to try it on completely fresh setup.. and it worked! Then I restored the backup off SD and it still works!

My god, so relieved.. I spent so many hours/days/weeks tweaking the skin, icons, widgets and everything, that the mere thought of having to go thru it all again was just sickening.. I'm not upgrading it again. EVER.

.. and btw: my unit is the "unsupported" Joying w/ SC9853i.. it works, w/o an issue.
[Android Head-Units] herobkse:
Hello,

Someone has got Route widget working with Sygic/Waze can let me know how to setup ?

I follow the steps below but it's never working for me :

1) In Minimap settings > Set routing = Sygic/ or Waze

2) Add Route widget to homescreen

3) Add a destination in Minimap, for example: Work

4) Select Work destination on Minimap > Sygic is opened and route is tracing

5) Come back to home screen but the Route widget does not show any information

Am I missing something ?

Thanks.

[Android Head-Units] sbruda:
Hi [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION], I was wondering whether you would have the time to investigate the possibility of defining button actions for CSN2 units. I would be happy without this feature except that the OS only allows me to bind one app to all buttons (meaning that wen I try to bind an app to a second button the first binding also changes to the new app), which is very limiting. The current version of Fcc appears to support this feature only on MTC* devices. Not even the old interception method works on CSN2. I have a CNS2 unit (Android 10, rooted) and I would be happy to assist in any way you may find useful, just let me know. Thank you so very much!

Something in fcc launcher has changed recently that makes torque widgets actually work now, which is nice, but it's still impossible to move/resize them. Long pressing on them does the same thing as long pressing on nothing: it loads the fcc launcher config/widget screen.

[Android Head-Units] RSNation74:
Newbie here, so I apologize for most likely asking the same question that has already been answered. I have an annoying issue with my Fcc Launcher where whenever I start my car, it always reverts to the radio. When I press the Home button the screen flips to the home screen, then back to the radio, then back to the home screen, then back to the radio, then back to the home screen. This happens every single time I get in the car. I'm not sure if this is coincidence, but I just recently upgraded to the full version, and I don't remember this happening with the free version (could be wrong). If there is a solution to this issue, can someone help me out or point me to the page I can find the answer? Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] bRkiX:
I have same issue.

Posted video describing it a month ago..didn not recieve any answer
[Android Head-Units] RSNation74:
That's unfortunate. I love the launcher compared to others I've tried, but having it skip around from radio to home screen is almost a deal breaker for me. Once it calms down, it works fine, though.
[Android Head-Units] sbruda:
The flipping from launcher to radio a few times is expected behaviour (for reasons of controlling the radio), but the Fcc failure to start on resuming is not (as far as I know) but it happens to me too.

Funny thing is, it happened in the past regularly on my old unit, it did not happen a version back (beta) on a fresh install on a new unit, and it started happening again now with the latest beta. I have asked awhile ago about it but received no response.
[Android Head-Units] RSNation74:
Why do you say the page flipping is expected behavior? Are you saying that this is a limitation because this launcher controls the radio where other launchers do not? Every time I get into my car, I have to deal with pressing the home button wait for the launcher to flip around several times then settle on the home screen to select a different source or just view the home screen. The process takes about 10 seconds, which I get is not a long time, but is certainly annoying and definitely not what I would expect.
[Android Head-Units] sbruda:
The following is according to my best understanding but note that I have no relation with the developer and so I am only offering an educated guess.

The reason for flipping to the radio is that the launcher controls which player is being launched on startup (the last one before suspending/restarting) and starts that player. This works pretty well for me. I believe that while some other players can be started in the background, the stock radio is not one of them. Therefore the radio app has to be brought in front on startup. I do not see any other way of accomplishing this kind of control (but I might be wrong).
[Android Head-Units] buffaloquinn:
Been searching this thread up and down looking for some help with contacts and dialing. Your post here seems the most promising but if I run Google Contacts it just closed so I can't get into settings. I've tried a few other Contact programs and none seem to be able to allow for getting Context info from the device. So far the only way over been able to call is via the built in bluetooth dialer. There is one app 'Contacts VCF' that will open an external VCF file and search and dial from it. But it is not an ideal solution. I saved the VCF file to the usb drive. Is there anywhere in particular it's supposed to be? And is there anyway to get Google Contacts to open it if I can't get into settings?
[Android Head-Units] RSNation74:
So, the issue with the page flipping appears to be worse now. When I turn on my car, the screen will flip back and forth from the radio to the home screen automatically, and it will eventually settle on the home screen. This is somewhat of an improvement as I want it to be on the home screen when I start my car. The problem is that during this initial sequence of page flips, the radio is somehow sent the "AM" command changing the station preset bank from "FM" to "AM" where I have no presets. So every time I start my car, I am greeted to static/white noise! This is more annoying than the page flips.

What I am very confused about is why did this behavior change all of a sudden? Was there an update to the launcher that was pushed out? I don't have automatic updates turned on, so I can't understand how the app just started behaving differently.
[Android Head-Units] elabjer:
This started happening to me when I updated to (stable) 3.441.. restarts 4-5 times in a row. Annoying AF. I reverted back to 3.440 and won't be upgrading anytime soon.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Same from me. I am at last version (paid) from Google Play. I hope that problem will be fixed soon, I don't see updates from long time on this launcher and I hope also that the new HU with S32F0 MCU on where several developer are working (i.e. Custom Rom from Malaysk recently released), will be fully supported soon.
[Android Head-Units] Mrscootx:
This is really nice software. I just bought the app on Playstore. One thing on my wishlist is that instead of minimap, it will display the mini screen in the middle, so that all the short cut button is available to mimic real head unit style. 10 inch display is too big for me to be honest (and distracting).
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
I was just in hope to get some X-Mas gift like a new version... ;)
[Android Head-Units] parisisal:
Hi Guys,

is there a way to have a real left bar with icons in FCC ?

Using the emulator I created this, but is a fake bar. If I change page the bar disappears.

A solution can be : create the bar in every page. Is there a way to (duplicate) copy and paste the widgets ?

Thank you,

Salvo

By now this launcher has been abandoned, the author has been missing for months I don't even follow him anymore, happy new year to everyone
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
This is simply not true.
[Android Head-Units] peleakan:
...but not completely wrong still... I use FCC for years now as a premium user and followed it closely, I still think this the most powerful car launcher available, with astonishing features, but we have to admit that it is slowly dying.

I am stuck with a 3.362v14 release which is more than 6 months old because in my case the last releases are unstable. And I haven't seen any sign of improvement in the S/W for a long time. SpeedFire seems to be busy with something else (which I can understand), but the reality is that nothing has been released for a long time
[Android Head-Units] Mulano:
Wait for a Update too. Cannot save the Config on google or SD 🥺 and i dont use Google Maps. Have my own Navi and cant change Minimap from GMap to my Navi 😭
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
There was an update in November, and they are not unstable on all my PX5 and PX6.

It´s a mess that we lost the split functionality on my units, but it is like it is. I need to think now in a different way...

You will never get a version which is working in a minimap for any other navigation as written in the description.
[Android Head-Units] parisisal:
I'm using FCC Car Launcher and the Voltage widget is not working. But in the status bar I can see the battery voltage.

Do you know which API I should call in order to read this value and show it in a widget ?
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
needless to ask not to have any dead post
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
As you can read in the widget, this is only available for FlyAudio systems available.

The voltage is not presented by Android, this is a MCU feature and hard coded somewhere. Some units have this visible in the status bar, others not. As for now the widget can not be used by other units as FlyAudio.
[Android Head-Units] parisisal:
Thanks to Hal9k and @zebbel_300c I find out a method to get the battery voltage on my PX5.

I used this library in order to use the CarManager.

Then I asked to the CarManager to send me all the CarEvents.

The CarEvent with the type : "battery" contains the voltage!

Tomorrow I will work on a widget.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
:sleep: @SpeedFire- You haven't even logged onto the forum in almost 2 months.... Hope you are doing okay?? People are getting anxious and worried that you haven't been around and no updates.

The 3.440_test16 is working rather well for me on my PX5. The only thing I could really pick on is the fact that the phone calls don't work, and hasn't worked for quite some time now, as I'm sure you are aware of. The last time this worked for me on a good stable build was 3.362v2. So maybe you could figure out what worked on that version vs what doesn't on these later versions.

Hope you are doing okay and don't have the virus! Hope everyone is doing okay for that matter!! :sick: @SpeedFire- Please drop us a word and let us know you are okay!!

*Edit: It seems that 3.362v2 doesn't work for phone calls anymore. So maybe it's something that has changed within Google Assistant, since google seems to have a habit of changing things lately.

Also for those of you having problems with FCC's backup to Google, make sure that you only have one FCC folder in your Google Drive, and that it is labeled FCCLauncherBackup with FCC being in caps, lower case didn't work. Also when backing up your profile, for me, it took about a minute or so before it said it was successful, so give it some time.
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
you still don't understand the author has abandoned the project, I don't see other reasons, unless he has problems with the covid which I do not wish to anyone
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Nah, I won't fall for fake news. There's too much of that BS going on here in the states, please don't try and spread rumors and bring that crap here too. This is one of my few escapes from all the BS going on.

There could be countless reasons @SpeedFire- hasn't been around, he has a real job and a life too! And he has had to take absences in the past due to his job. I would find it incredibly hard to believe that after @SpeedFire- put years of very hard work into this app to make it the best car launcher ever, would just suddenly give up without telling anyone!
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I believe he said he was working on "something else" ??

I must admit, I do miss the almost daily, early morning start to the day, by seeing what improvements @SpeedFire- had made, and testing it out in the early morning before going to work.

Not so missed in the winter, when it is Freezing cold 1st thing in the Morning, but I still miss the expectation and excitement of a new, almost dailyupdate .

That being said, for me FCC is working very well, and I certainly have no complaints about its current state.

My major concern, especially in current times, is that @SpeedFire- is OK -- whatever he is doing...
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
just what I said, let's hope it's okay with me at fcc but I don't care about people's health
