Hi [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION],

if it is possible can you fix the graphics error like these (altitude widget, trip time widget and distance widget) :

The numbers are cutted when they became long (es. 1159meters, 45:58 minutes or 125.8 km).

If I enlarge the widget width I get the icon aligned on the left and the number on the right -> leaving a space in the middle (uglyto see).

Would be better if when i enlarge the widget the number stay near the icon (both aligned on the left).

Thank you,

Salvo

Thank you again for all the help, I finally got it working.

on the first install after choosing offline maps I could not get FCC to stop crashing. but after a reinstall it seems pretty stable.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
This is no issue...

You need to play with font size and the size of the widget, that´s all.

I get this error ”YOU MUST USE AN API KEY TO AUTHENTICATE EACH REQUEST TO GOOGLE MAPS PLATFORM APIS. ” when i try to put address to minimap. Is there something i can do with that?
[Android Head-Units] Super_paulie:
As reluctant as I am to just throw a request into the ring, I'm wondering if [MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION] out any other members have a thought on this. I use an Atoto and it had a bottom navigation bar on by default that you can't turn off, unless you run an app to send it into one of the "immersive modes". Unfortunately I can't get it to stick and I have to restart the app after every close. Sadly it's open the app and then click a button to start it, so it's not something I can create a shortcut to and auto run. Any ideas guys? Could this be an option built into FCC, I don't think it's difficult to add to the APK, although I'm no expert. See attached for screenshots.
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
After uninstalling Poweramp, FCC actually launched the Play Store to try to get me to reinstall it. I then reinstalled FCC, and now it launches the stock radio app. When I set it up, I specially set the players to "other installed player" to try to keep it from launching anything. What the heck is going on?
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I use to have similar issues with Power-amp .. it kept wanting to run, and if I had uninstalled it, it also went to Google Store to try to automatically download it. (It was almost as if Power-amp had become a virus, and wanted to keep talking over !!)'

I fixed that my removing Power-amp widgets etc from FCC (and of course, uninstalling Power-Amp)

I believe what may have been happening was when FCC ran, it saw there was a Power-amp Widget in FCC, but when it could not find the Uninstalled Power-amp app, it then evoked a call to the Play Store, to try to re-install it.

I use Black-Player now, seems to have very similar features to Power_amp, but for me, works better in FCC. There is something in Power-amp, to do with getting images etc, that is not standard in Power-amp, and so FCC has issues with it.

I believe FCC has added a work around, but despite numerous attempts, the Power-amp author does not seem willing to fix Power-amp at his end... so THUMBS DOWN to Power-Amp, and I use Black-player instead.

( Power-amp MAY be fixed now, I would not know, as I do not use it anymore)
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
To me this is clearly an issue with FCC, not Poweramp. FCC should not try to launch any other app unless it's specifically set up to do so in the settings.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
You just have PowerAmp in one of the settings of a player widget.

Remove it and it does not launch the PlayStore anymore.

Your issues with PowerAmp are not related to FCC.

Try to use PowerAmp v3 and your issues should be gone.

Setup the V2 from market, activate the pro license and use the V3 as download from https://forum.powerampapp.com/files/category/2-poweramp-v3-latest-releases/

Don´t delete the PRO license.
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
Thanks, but I don't think PA V3 is compatible with my version of Android. Plus that doesn't explain why after I reinstalled FCC it started launching the radio app (which did not have a widget set up). At lunch time I went out and uninstalled FCC again, then installed an older version (3.22). It started launching the default music app. I think I'll go in and clear settings and cache then maybe even do a reset of the head unit and try installing FCC again to see what happens.
[Android Head-Units] Super_paulie:
Can confirm, once you have access via ADB you can tell FCC to go full immersive which removes all bars on the home screen and menu. They remain as a "pull up" to see and use. Perfect.

I assume I'd have to make this change whenever a new version of FCC gets installed. [MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION], is it possible to make this toggle part of build? Just a thought.

[/COLOR]Hi [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION],

can you implement a debug mode ?

With a debug mode FCC Launcher should write the log strings to a file (in the SD) and then we can share that file with you. Without roor and without logcat!

I've the last stable from the playstore and i get many crashes every day.

Regards,

Good to see the Forum back up and running again.

A few days without it, and the experience of possibly no more FCC support, really has made me appreciate just what we all have with FCC.

[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Thanks for the update! I hope [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] is having a great vacation, he deserves it!

I can't seem to find 3.254 anywhere... latest I have see here is 3.244? Anyone got a link?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Hello!

That is true. I was busy integrating Yandex navigation into the launcher (this navigation is the best on the Russian and some other markets). It was possible to integrate routing and turn-by-turn navigation which looks good.

However the app size increased significantly (to 64 Mb) from now on. If you really want to test it, here is the link: FCC Launcher beta: 3.258

Im using new version in ch play
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Then just keep using Google or MapBox. I don't see any problem here.
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Try to install the latest alpha/beta from here. I incorporated a check for the "invisible widgets issue". It was found that this issue mostly appear after FCC Launcher is frozen by user using Titanium Backup app.
[Android Head-Units] tonimontoia:
that is, can I update and always use Google maps?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Yes you can. I just add other options (!) of map providers and do not remove anything.

Home button not working for me(soft and hard) . Is there any setting that must to do?

EDIT:After i instal beta worked.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Ref: Yandex I appreciate that this may be optimum for the Russian market, but is this something that one would want to use in the USA ?

Ref: Minimap What are the advantages of the minimap , over something like Google map ? I appreciate that it is technically clever to integrate a custom map system into an app, but why would one want to use it, when potentially more featured maps like Google map is available.

[MENTION=1633144]speedfire[/MENTION] I am still hoping to see some improvement in the Street Address accuracy, and the speed limit reliability, so that over-speed warning sounds can become functional & reliable --- but with all these alternative Map options etc, how possible is it now to improve on these two feature, with the complexity of so many alternative Map solutions in FCC ?

Also, if Yandex is now doubling the size of FCC, will there be a future option not to include Yandex support ( and its extra storage requirements) when Installing FCC, in the future
[Android Head-Units] theadonnan:
Minimap using mapbox offline keeps saying mapbox file is corrupt. Any fixes?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Good points.

1) I don't plan to have separate versions of FCC app. Instead the app size was decreased by 20 MB (from 64 MB to 44 MB) in the latest alpha.

2) Sound notifications are introduced in this alpha. You can also choose a "constant" warning sound while overspeeding. Please check FCC Settings - Sound - Speed warning sounds.

3) I've made some improvements regarding wrong street identification. Please check this alpha.

[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Great news -- Thanks -- I'm going to install that beta right now, and try it while driving tomorrow.

Going to say it again : THANK YOU so much for getting the FCC Configuration SAVE/RESTORE developed and work when you did.

It makes trying out a new beta so much less stressful, knowing that one can go back to a previous FCC version, with it's saved Widget configurations. :D
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
When selecting changing the speed selection sounds from the provided list, are the sounds meant to play when you select a new one. ?

If I have say the MP3 player running, I can hear the Audio from the player being corrupted, but I do not hear the Selected Over-speed sound, even if the Mp3 player is not running.

(Not yet tried actually DRIVING & over-speeding to hear of I get the sound when the Over-speed is detected)

---

Also, I now notice that the Startup Delay to automatically start a Player at boot, cannot be set to Zero (auto) -- the lowest the slider will go to is 1 (second)
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
I've seen this for quite a while now too (actually, I've never been able to set it 0) and I reported this some time ago, though I'm not sure if [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] saw the post. I wonder if it would help my autostart issues... although, at least with Spotify, it seems to be working a little better on this version!
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
Quick alpha 3.264:

[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] Thanks -- that was quick :)

Can you comment on the Overspeed Sound selection. Is that meant to play the selected sound when you select it ?

ANYONE ELSE not hearing the sounds as they are being selected ?
[Android Head-Units] SpeedFire-:
For me everything works both on emulator and a real device.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
Strange -- I get no audio warning at all --

But

I also now only get very occasional and intermittent speed limits, and the Road names are also "Different". Before FCC displayed the road Names, now it only seems to display roads if they have a Route Number.

I never knew where this information was coming from, I assumed it was through Google Maps ? -- but now, since the new Russian Mapping service has been added, and there is a way to select the source, Google Maps does not seem to be an option to select.

In the USA, what should we be using ??

Do we now need a Google Key for the Road Names & Speed Limits to be got ?

@ SpeedFire- A quick explanation of how FCC is now getting the information for Speed Limits and Road names would be very much appreciated.

Maybe some debug mode, or something to tell when information is (or isn't ) being updated ??
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
I see this issue as well. When selecting different sounds, I get the same audio corruption of my music playing in the background and no overspeed sound is played. I have not been able to test it on the road yet to see if the sounds actually work or not.

[MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] Thanks for fixing the 0 = Auto. However, it doesn't seem to make a difference. But I'm starting to wonder if it has something more to do with the Malaysk ROM (I did have similar issues with Hal9k too) I'm running... It seems to have a built in autoplay as well (though I've never seen the options for setting it up anywhere) because even when I've uninstalled FCC, Spotify will continue playing right when it comes out of sleep. And with FCC, it seems the times that it doesn't autoplay, it's just paused and I just have press the play button and it works. I've tried many combinations of the Music Player on Boot and the Autostart (which hasn't seemed to work for me for a while) players_background, and nothing really ever seems to change. Even just a simple return to home doesn't seem to work.

Would you be willing to try out Malaysk's ROM and see if you have some of the same issues? I know quite a few people out there use that ROM and wonder if that's where a lot of these problems are coming from...

Crash

after last update always this fcc a big mess
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
It does appear to be less stable, - since the introduction of the alternative Map data source, all version I have tried have been unstable, and have crashed multiple times.

Hopefully this can be resolved soon, or else I may need to revert to a prior, more stable version, to make FCC usable.

Would really like to see some indication that the Speed Limit / Street info is updating, or more importantly NOT updating ... maybe a debug mode, where the received data is displayed or logged.

A change of color or flashing of the widget, when either Speed Limit or Road Name data is not being received would be a good addition.

Relying on Bad, incorrect or outdated data, especially for Speed Limit, is highly undesirable - there should be some indication that this is working correctly (or not)

Hello!

I'm having multiple issues with the player widget. Some of the issues are random:

- fcc sometimes switches to a different app by itself (possibly related to player autostart option?)

- sometimes song information is not refreshed correctly

- sometimes the music does not start when clicked on play

But this one is repeatable:

- when going out of sleep, the players are paused, but fcc shows them as playing. Need to click twice to play, see the video:

[YOUTUBE]https://youtu.be/nCmse-Iytzg[/YOUTUBE]
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
I also get this, and have almost constantly since I first started using FCC.

Over the past year, it has got better with frequent updates and Bug fixes , but it still happens, especially after a re-boot, when FCC seems to be busy for some time, getting itself sorted out.

The good news is that if I temporarily switch to the Radio, the Radio Information ALWAYS displays and updates correctly, and then when I return to the original player, most times, it then updates correctly.

If not, and RESTART FCC, or in extreme cases, a RE-BOOT will fix the issue, till it starts to occur again.

The RESTART FCC is a necessary App to always have on your Home Screen !!
[Android Head-Units] SoberXDA:
True, I have it there as well :)

Hmm... Maybe it would be possible to somehow autorun Fcc restart after each wake?
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
I actually have FCC restarting itself from sleep but it's a bug that I can't figure out how to fix. I think it's caused from another app that I must run for my car's audio, IBus App. When I check it's option to run on startup, it seems to break something, somewhere within FCC. The ROM's (Malaysk) stock launchers don't have the issue, just FCC for some reason. Even when I deselect the option, the issues persist. I can uninstall and reinstall FCC, try different versions, different backups or uninstall the IBus app and nothing seems to make it go away. It seems required for me to wipe everything on the ROM and reset for it to go away...

I've tried to mention it to [MENTION=4292729]SpeedFire-[/MENTION] and see if he could install the IBus app and tell if the problem is with FCC or not, but I'm not sure he saw the post. I've also tried contacting Dev's of the IBus app too. Not sure what one has the bug.

It is not possible to restore an individual launcher UI.

I tried it once again today to switch back from the last update to the market version.

This is the version the backup is created from:

...see attached picture 1

...and this is the result:

...see second picture.
[Android Head-Units] Scopesys:
One thing that may be causing the start-up issue, is that when the Android unit boots, it wants to check any Plug-In media for errors (ie CHKDSK The USB stick), and until it has done that, the Mp3 player app cannot access USB stick. By the time it can, it has error-ed out , thinking that the USB device is not available , and FCC has given up trying to start it.

Maybe FCC should keep trying, say for about 4-5 minutes, until it has detected that it has been successful in starting eh player to play for the 1st time after a boot, and that the player is actually in a play mode.

---------- Post added at 05:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

I did a restore from a Widget setup backup from previous version, and it worked fine. I hope the backup/restore is not broken, as I strongly rely on that to get me out of problems, when beta testing FCC !!!

Each time, BEFORE I update FCC, I export FCC, along with the Widget backup, named to that FCC's version number to my Google Drive (It's getting quite full !!)
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
I was having some issues like this too. I had to restore the backup around 3 consecutive times and it would finally show up correctly.
[Android Head-Units] rigattoni:
I tried it several times with the one stored on SD from yesterday and with some previous ones from Google Drive with bad results.

In the past I used this backup/restore often and had just to switch the individual button style, but just now it´s really messy.

By the way... There should be a way to get rid of old backups.

I was setting up my PowerAmp again (after fresh ROM reinstall to get everything to work right again...) and noticed that they now have an option within the Audio Focus settings called "Wait For Storage" that says "PowerAmp waits for storage (up to 30s) to mount before resuming on start". Not sure if you're still using PowerAmp or if that's even long enough, not but might be worth a try.
