I don't mean to sound discouraging or negative but I wouldn't do this from launcher software. I would use the relay I previously mentioned, implement a physical switch/button to turn the amp on/off, or even forget the blue/white wire from the HU and use the acc wire directly*.

Can you submit a thread outside of this one and this discussion can be continued there? Others not using FCC are more likely to chime in then also.

I don't want to speak for [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] but this sounds like a one-off situation and I wouldn't suspect there will be a good justification to add it to FCC.

*While the amp doesn't take much to turn on, I just want to say "fuse and check circuit capacity as needed"

I can control it from the toggles
[Android Head-Units] kramttocs:
Oh, my apologies - I completely missed/misunderstood where you said you already have a toggle for it. Disregard everything I've said about it being defective. :o

In that case, it sounds like a valid request :good:

I've never heard of such an ability. Do you have a link to the manual for that HU?
[Android Head-Units] NoxSolaris:
Hello,

I have the following behavior. I have the FCC media widget set up to select from three different sources. I also assigned the same audio sources to the wheel mode selection (the option where you can cycle three apps).

In order - PowerAmp - Radio - DAB-Z and i have shortcuts to these apps on the home screen. Now when i press the associated wheel key sometimes the next player does not come up. From PowerAmp to Radio this offten means reverting back to PA and skipping to the next song. Radio seems to forget the last station I had tuned to. Sometimes the widget indicates Radio ia active but PA is actually playing. There seems to be some erratic behavior when switching. . Either by wheel key, the media widget or shortcuts. I also tried this with other players including NaviRadio and AD2P, same behavior

Is this related to the 'possesed' phenomenon I read about in this thread. The problem seemed to occur after a recent update. (one or two version back as of this date). Any thoughts or is this a to be fixed?

Thanks

Hi Friends, I bought your app for my head unit, I like it but I need help help setting it up, because I see many things crashes and it works slow, I need someone helping me out to have the app working fine and fast. Any one can help me, I would really appreciate.

Is there any step by step video to have the app working perfectly fine? I feel it works slow, I have 2 GB ram, and cuad core 1.2 ghz Android 10

Possibly your unit runs a fake android 10 and mostly the OS version should be android 6.0. You can verify it using app like

Thread's been very quiet lately.

I asked this in the Atoto thread and need to test with the stock launcher but on the off chance it is FCC related - anyone else seeing the Home link on Spotify (updated to new UI) being hidden beneath the status bar?

Instructions?

Hi,

I really like FCC launcher. I use it with my Dasaita PX5 head unit.

I was wondering if there are any instructions for how to set up dialing with the Premium version? Or instructions in general. There is a nice FAQ at the start of this thread, but its been a bit tricky to find stuff in this 700 item thread.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]

Suggested about 6 weeks ago, and got a "Top rated Most Thanks" -- so it would seem that many others would also like this widget update.

Any chance you could update the Satellite Widget to display better.

The way it is at the moment, the Text size is very limited, because it cuts off at the bottom when it gets bigger.

Ideally, it should match the WifI & BT widget design, with the Icon at the top, and the text underneath.

Maybe its not to much work to just make it the same as the WiFi & BT widget

ie just copy their design (which works very well)

Attached are two Images, 1st is how it is at the moment, 2nd is suggested change (with Satellite icon at the top)

FCC Car Launcher works great for me, but I just have one issue with the autoplay last music player from startup with Google Music . Everytime I start up the car and it boots up, Google Music starts fine and the song plays for about 20-30 seconds, then it does a weird thing where the music restarts beginning of the song 2-3 times. After that, the music runs with no issues. Has anyone run into this and fixed it? Thanks.

If you look at his profile page, you see that he was active on XDA just two hours ago, so don't worry. ;)

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]: It would be great though if you could give us some update about when you will be active on this thread again. :)

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION]: On a different note, some of us still have issues with your implementation of split screen support. For example, I don't like FCC to be shown in the recent apps. It must be possible to prevent an app to be shown in recents, because e.g. aodNotify acts like this (maybe you can have a look how it's working there.) Generally, I still would prefer a switch in the settings to turn off the split screen support with all the workarounds that you implemented to make it work. :fingers-crossed: There are many FCC users (for sure most of us on this thread) who simply don't need split screen support for a home screen.

Widgets for torque don’t display (idea,suggestion)

Hi, i have a problem with the torque widgets app, they dont appear on homescreen anymore, if i could ask to speedfire to solve the problem.

An idea is to improve torque in fcc car launcher, like a plugin, unless of obd native widget of the app (very buggy) try to set fcc to read torque app data.

Im a premium member, thanks and sorry for my bad english.

Hi all. I purchased this in the early days and really liked it. But sadly it wouldn't work on my PUMPKIN CSN2 device

The Quick Player just does not seem to work with my Radio App, A2DP or built in player.

I keep coming back to this, and I see CSN2 is now an option in the setup procedure, but it still does not work.

I've tried the latest Beta, and the latest Stable release but neither work.

Please advise
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
I think you are wrong.

I just have a CSN2 unit working completely with Fcc.

FM radio A2DP and the most player are working fine with Fcc.

You just need to add the player in the settings of the widgets, that´s all.
[Android Head-Units] kramttocs:
Since there is at least one other user with the same device type, maybe one of you could share a backup with the other to see what's going on?
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] : This a great launcher, but i have some bug with TPMS plugins, the alarm can not turn off until i restart my head unit. And sometimes if i switch to other app than back to home again, the TPMS can not read the data, and i must kill the tpms app than start the app again after that tpms app can read data again.

since the last update FCC doesnt't start at all anymore :(

as part of preparations for a short vacation trip i just did an update (in range of my home WLAN) of all apps with fcc among them.

that was about an hour ago and since then i'm trying to get this beast working again, no chance.

after a start (reset, "warm" start or even just pressing home button, behavior is the same in any case) it kicks in my two configured autostart apps and shows the empty background of my homescreen ("page" 3), that's all. After a while i get an error message: fcc doesn't react anymore, wait / close...

the funny thing: every time i press the home button, fcc restarts and starts the two autostart apps as well ... again and again and again and ag...

the configuration worked (more or less, more less) before the update and the previous update was a few days ago (really can't say the exact date, maybe last friday?).

i guess that's the price you have to pay for being in the beta channel and hoping for some improvements...
[Android Head-Units] bRkiX:
Installed on new unit.

i got issue that launcher does not start from hot boot..

i park car, turn it off..after few minutes start car unit is instantly on but i have manually press home key to start the fcc..

from cold boot (if restart unit) it starts.

all other launchers start normally after hot boot..

only issue with othervise perfect app...

bought pro version.

Hi download macrodroid, set up a macro to launch Homescreen when display/screen is turned on. Macrodroid is easy to use. I had the same issue fcc launcher did not Autostart after cold/hot boot. This app helps.
[Android Head-Units] swyner:
Me too. This is all related to the decision (poor one) to make it an active app instead of a launcher. This was, again, a poor decision when deciding to make this launcher work in split screen mode. My opinion only but there are many of us that have tried to get the developer to rethink split screen to no avail.
[Android Head-Units] bRkiX:
why would you wanna launcher in split screen?

strange...
[Android Head-Units] swyner:
No freakin idea. This “functionality” has caused more issues like it won’t refresh the embedded maps on soft boot (hot boot) so people have to treat it like an app and do lots of workarounds to actually make it a launcher. Oh well. Other things are great and I do like it in general but this decision is mind boggling

[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
Guys,

to have a launcher in split screen is a good idea at least for all who have a tesla-style unit or units bigger than 10" screen.

Just keep them in mind and don´t just see your small units.
[Android Head-Units] swyner:
Lol. I am one that has the Tesla screen and since none of the radio or Bluetooth functions in my specific unit work with OEM radio (Infiniti q50) split screen with a launcher is useless. Again just my opinion and wish we had the option (at the very least)
[Android Head-Units] kramttocs:
Having the option for it would be great.

Seems a little unusual that an update was released a few days ago but no word here from SpeedFire.

Do stuff before shutdown or deepsleep...

Hi, Thanks for this great app. I bought it and using it very effectively in my car.

I use tasker with it to do some stuff.

One thing i want to do is just before shutting down or entering to deep sleep mode:

- I want to activate a tasker task which does:

-close some apps,

-send the last location to my phone as parking location.

I already made these tasks. But I cannot figure out a way to operate this task just before shutdown or deep sleep.

Is it possible to execute an app or something just before shutdown or deep sleep?

Thanks a lot. Best Regards.
[Android Head-Units] squarefw:
Just installed , seems quickplayer widget doesn’t work with my fm radio. Is it because I chose wrong MCU type? My trip is TS9 sp9853
[Android Head-Units] kramttocs:
I get the idea but is it necessary to wait for shutdown or deep sleep? I don't think my HU does the deep sleep until after days of inactivity.

If it was me I wouldn't bother with closing apps and I would do the location notification on screen off.
[Android Head-Units] bajoseph04:
If you just go through this thread, I would have asked for an option to disable the split screen so that the app will work as a launcher for those who prefer to use that way multiple times. But no response at all from the developer. And people here advise me to use the previous version that didn't have this feature ?
[Android Head-Units] ozgurliman2:
I tried but tasker wont do the task because when the screen off, the device already became off.

I want an option to do something just before the shutting down process starts when i turn off the ignition of my car..

Thanks for the help.
[Android Head-Units] btrax:
Hi, I have a Sofia based HU?

Does it works ( radio, speedometer ...) What settings I have to choose for that ( Android phone, fly audio or rockchip)?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Mostly work. You need to choose Rockchip -> MTCD
[Android Head-Units] btrax:
For example, radio or music player doesn't show on the widget, it's because of the Sofia Unit ?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Even after you selected MTCD?

Try to remove the widget and put it on home screen again. Music players should work anyway.
[Android Head-Units] btrax:
Yep, audio player and radio( from the unit ) doesn't seem to be linked with the launcher and widget. If you want some log files , video I can show you ;)
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Yes, this can be useful. Please send me a video and full LogCat log (see first post in this topic).

Then I will probably ask you to send me system apk-s (because it seems that you have some different type of Sofia device - many Sofia users reported that radio works fine).

Hey you guys,

sorry for the OT question, but as you probably use your devices indoors from time to time and need a powersource to do that:

Hi [MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION], can you please look at this bug of volume/AC notifications not clearing in flyaudio. What I have observed is that alternate notifications clear out fine. The first notification gets stuck but when the next one comes it clears.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Please check your autovolume by speed function.

It is recommended to have differences between speeds at least 20 kmph.

If you have set auto-volume change for example to 30, 40 and 80 there may be issues. You need to set this to 30, 50 and 80.

If it is not the case please respond
[Android Head-Units] Sacdroid:
I am not using auto volume by speed. Will the issue resolve if I use it?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
This was the only case when such issue could have been caused by the FCC Launcher. Your issue may be unrelated to the Launcher.

Launcher however may help if you choose 'quick hide of notifications' option. You may try.

P.S. This bug on FlyAudio devices happens when two FlyAudio notifications appear simultaneously
[Android Head-Units] Barreto:
Hello.

First of all: great app. The functionality, extra settings and ongoing improvements with users feedback, make this the best android HU launcher IMO (bought it not only to unlock the locked features, but mainly to support the developer, who rly deserves it!)

That being said, is anyone having a problem with the minimap not changing the theme when set to "Automatic"? If I choose "Auto" it always displays the night theme. It's always dark. I have to use in "Day" setting. Is there something I'm missing?

(this minimap function is just awesome! It's like you read my mind :) I was looking for a widget to display a real time googlemap on the main screen when you added this to the app. Just great!)

Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] Sacdroid:
Completely agree. This is the same reason I got the paid version.

I have faced this mostly when I change the volume or some AC setting manually. And as I said this happens on alternate notifications.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Thank you guys for your support and good words :)

This issue should be fixed in the next beta.

I got an MTK 8227l-based no-name head unit and brightness settings does nothing at all. Is there anything I can do regarding this?
[Android Head-Units] kramttocs:
First, it sounds like this is outside the scope of FCC but...

So you are saying that as soon as you turn off the ignition, the HU is shutdown and Tasker won't perform any tasks/actions? Do you get a cold boot every time you turn on the ignition? If so, it's either a wiring issue or something unavoidable in the HU (although never heard of one with no standby period). If the unit is being shutdown though, there is nothing Tasker or a launcher can do between that and when you turn off the key.

While I can't speak to that specific HU, that behavior is not unusual. I don't know if [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] is working to make it seamless across units or if that is even possible.

Is FCC the default launcher currently? If so, long press a blank spot on the desktop, select Widgets from the left hand side, and long hold any widget. It should prompt you to allow it to create a widget. There is also a checkbox to 'Always allow...'
