Hi Guys,

can someone share the newest xposed moduls separately ?

Modules like Xposed-Music, ...-Radio, ....-BT, ....

Best regards

[MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION] stated in his thread:

WARNING: MicroG Core and LP don't work well: contacts are not seen from apps like Hangouts, Google/Voice Search, while True Contacts needs local loading of profile & contacts - from vcards on the internal SD. Therefore I strongly recommend the Open GApps version!

Does that apply to this firmware ? or any MicroG version ?
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
Thats in general for microG so any rom with that. Thats why I also have open gaps version.

If you want usable and fast unit with 1gb you have to use microG with limitations.
[MTCB Software Development] LRail:
Ahh.. ok. so this is really a choice between "Stock" or "Micro" OpenGapps packages.

https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Package-Comparison

The naming in the MTCB firmware threads confused me, and had me thinking that "MicroG" was something different.

Thanks for the help !

Newest firmware for MTCB/GS - 1GB RAM / 8GB ROM

Hi.

I am searching for the latest firmware like Android 5.1, 6.1 or 7.1 possible for this model:

Modelnumber: S07

MCU version: MTCB-GS-V2.73

Android version: 4.4.4

Screen resolution:

800*480

Could you please help me? I could not figure it out.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
They work perfectly well on [MENTION=5228031]Johny DJ[/MENTION]'s modified version of [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION]'s ROM with microG.

Hi. Is there any way to het assistant on this rom?
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
I had been using the MicroG Lite version of this ROM for more than a month with no problems.

Recently, kept getting notifications that the Goggle Play Services needs updating, which another user mentioned earlier. Wasn't a problem as all the apps would still function normally so just ignored it.

Couple of days ago, the system would refuse to connect via WiFi complaining about a Security Certificate Issue so I cleared cache and restored the system. Problem solved.

Now, after 5 minutes use of the system and every time it boots up, the screen and buttons become unresponsive. Although, if there is music in the background, it does continue to play? I do remember a user mentioning this earlier, could this be because some of the exposed modules were not activated?

Also, the instructions state that the first five items of the Google Play Service should be disabled. But, as we have discovered, this does not allow us to use some of the paid for apps that we have. Of these 5 items, which items can we leave disabled, if we wanted to login to our paid for apps, but did not want Play Services to check for updates?

[MENTION=5228031]Johny DJ[/MENTION] I have a Premium version of Car Launcher AJ if you wanted to integrate it into the ROM?
[MTCB Software Development] ode_joy:
[MENTION=5228031]Johny DJ[/MENTION],

I've managed to install this ROM with microg apps, and I'm delight with the fluid and sharpness of this ROM!

Never the MTCC worked so fluid. Very good work.

Now, I just need to find in this thread why the Playstore doesn't load search contents (e.g.: youtube or Car Launcher), and also do the HW modification in order to configure the output to the SubWoofer. :)
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
Enabling the 5 Google Play disabled services, then clearing the Google Play Store data/cache allows you to search and download paid for apps.

Unsure about the sound mod stuff as I dont know how to do the hardware modifications
[MTCB Software Development] ode_joy:
Thank you for the help here! :)

I'll try that when I go for a drive after work.

As for the HW modd, it's the 7floor modification, which provides a better sound from our MTCC. The SW is already installed, even thought it's disabled in Xposed since the HW is still stock.

"Basically what we need to do is to re-route the I2C control bus of Sound Processor from the MCU to the Android Board."
[MTCB Software Development] Clampy:
Must say I also agree with the comments about speed of OpenGapps vs MicroG. I myself have a 1gb ram MTCB unit (joying)

I use HERE maps (HERE WeGo) for navigation and something as simple as app launching was considerably better when using the MicroG version. As well as that, the app responds much faster too. Top work!

One question. I’m the OpenGapps version, even after disabling the screen saver there was still a handy button in the status bar that blanked the screen. Can’t seem to get it on the microG version. Can someone point me to the right xposed module/ini file, or whatever it is I’ve missed?

Thanks!

Hi, the rom is very fast, but my modem 3g does not works in this rom.

I need change or add something in the configuration rom?
[MTCB Software Development] ode_joy:
Does anyone has the "Element" option on Settings, to change the LED colour available? Did you change anything?
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
You ahve to enable it in factory settings and reboot about 5 times for it to appear. It Wil only work if you actually have RGB LEDs.
[MTCB Software Development] ode_joy:
Yes I have. When with malaysk ROM, the factory settings was as RGB and the LEDs where white. Changed in factory to R and it appeared at the time.

I'll try your method, even change to R to RGB and vice-versa. Thank you!

BTW, I've installed Car Launcher, and like to set the music app, but only appears as option YouTube (only media APP I've downloaded).

Wondering if anyone has another better music APP and managed to set as default in this launcher...?

Hi,

i have installed your ROM its work very well, but i have an problem with the youtube app. I have installed it from the google play store and i watch an video i have the highest quality of 480p with the malaysk rom i had 720p. I tried apps like yourtube+ or App Settings there i changed the resoulution to a higher one and i had the option for 720p but its looks very ugly. Anyone know how to fix the problem?
[MTCB Software Development] NaviPR:
Interesting software, but there seems to be a number of issues with it.

The first unit we tried it on was a KLD 5.1 RK3188 (for a Mazda CX-5, but that doesn't matter here).

During the first installation we used the microGaps version. When it was done, no modules or software was installed besides the DSA MTC module in Exposed. No "Disable software", no nothing.

Then we tried openGapps. Something weird happened here, because the software reacted as if it was installed on a smartphone, because before it booted it gave us a welcome screen, typical of what you would see running an Android phone for the first time. After that we used the guide but there was absolutely no way to connect to the Play Store.

After that we ran the first software again - microGaps - this time it all went fine, with all the modules and we could access the Play Store.

Afterwards we tried installing the microGaps version on a KGL 5.1 RK3188 (this time for an Audi A4).

The first install started fine, but within a minute it completely BRICKED the RK3188. There was no response from the unit. At first, the LED lights in the front panel worked by themselves for a couple of minutes, but then died. We couldn't get it into recovery, using Malaysk's recovery cards didn't work. We had to replace the processor.

We tried installing the software and the same thing happened AGAIN.

Why is this not installing properly on KLD units at the first try and why did it brick a 5.1 KGL RK3188 - twice?
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
Not sure about the bricking? or the KGL?

I've been running the MicroG version for a while now and have installed it twice. Xposed modules are disable by default and you have to activate them yourself. I find this convenient as I don't actually need all the installed modules and actually delete a few of them. I was sure to follow the install instructions very carefully though. My unit is also a KLD.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Pointless using the openGapps one if youve only got 1Gb RAM, use microG, you obviously didnt set it up right. The welcome screen is normal.

I ve installed this ROM many times and not had a problem like that. Sometimes for whatever reason flashing can go wrong, I was going to suggest thats happened to you, but to get it again suggests there might be something wrong with your motherboard. No one else has reported it bricking their unit.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
I have KLD mazda 5 rk3188, no problems and tested all of them before release, no problems...

Try to flash twice in a row if doesn’t boot, should be ok.
[MTCB Software Development] NaviPR:
I didn't say the modules were disabled. They were not INSTALLED.

When I first installed the firmware through recovery with formatting (like I do with any other update) no other module was installed besides dsa's module. Nothing else was on the list besides that one.

Just wanted to clear this up.

Every flash goes fine, then all of a sudden two CPUs die one after another.

When was the firmware ever dependent on the motherboard?

This is a MTCB unit, so everything should work fine.

In all cases where flashing a new firmware caused problems, like errors or straight up bricks, only the CPU suffered, and 100% of the time after we replaced it a new firmware could be flashed without any problems on the same board.

Well, it worked both times, just the modules didn't install at first.
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
OK, sorry, misunderstood what you were explaining.

I followed the advice of erasing 3 times before updating the ROM. I think typos1 has mentioned to do this before. Either way, I am not sure why it is not working for you. I do not know of any other users who have experienced similar issues to you either.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Sorry to hear of your problem.

The modules have to be installed, its no big deal.

I suggested the motherboard because many, many people have used this ROM (including me, I ve flashed it on several different units) and not one person has reported this problem, you said you have a new SoM and it happened again, so I think this points to the motherboard (the ROM and SoM having been eliminated).

Or its some other unknown problem. If it was just a blank screen I could suggest its an MCU issue and maybe [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION]'s MCU fooling trick has failed meaning the screen is blank.
[MTCB Software Development] NaviPR:
No problem :)

I skimmed the thread a little bit and also haven't found anyone with the same problems as me, so I thought I'd ask to see if anybody experienced similar problems.

No biggie, fortunately we had some CPU's to spare, but to be honest it made us get scared of installing this firmware on other MTCB RK3188 KGL units.

Both times the update failed after about a minute; in both cases there was nothing we could do, like go into recovery and such. The LEDs also stopped working.
[MTCB Software Development] azuman:
Hi guys. I installed last 3.9 update, opengapps version, but I don't know why, after installation, I have lost, or better said, I don't have the notification bar on top, doesn't appear... Is there any way I can get it to appear? Dunno what happened... thanks!
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
You need to follow the instructions in the first post. It states that you need to enable an exposed module.
[MTCB Software Development] azuman:
thanks. I know about that, did it already before (had the microg version instead) but dunno why the status bar doesnt appear... all the xposed modules are activated, and tried deactivating them, rebooting, and activating them again and rebooting, but no luck... I guess i'll have to reinstall again :S hopefully a dirty flash, as I don't want to re-install all my apps! thanks again!
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
Did you copy the configuration files to your GPS card and configure them?
[MTCB Software Development] azuman:
I did copy the folders to the external root of the sd card, but I didn't configure anything, as I didn't do it last time I installed this rom (status bar was present from beginning) so what would be the option to configure in order to have the status bar visible, if you know it and it's not much to ask? cheers mate
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
You shouldnt need to copy anything anywhere, it should just boot normally with a status bar.

I did get no status bar once, but I cant remember how I got around it, did you wipe data and cache ?
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
Someone mentioned that the statusbar is hidden for certain model, I think it was anyone that does not have an RK3188?

If you need it, below is how I have configured my statusbar:

[hide]

# Hide StatusBar
status_bar=false

# Hide Home icon
home=false

# Hide App icon

[MTCB Software Development] azuman:
No luck :( tried this settings after editing mine,but still no status bar, so weird... thanks anyway!
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
Did you clear data and cache ?
[MTCB Software Development] o!pen:
On the status line: you need to activate the mtcxp xposed module from the DSA. If not activated, the lines do not appear. The author has a comment about this, but you do not pay attention at once.

Help activate live wallpapers, I understand, the author cut them out of his firmware. But very much needed KLWP - without them does not work!

I also found out that ini files are attached to the firmware (some) in ANSI encoding, but should be in UTF-8. If you do not translate, the modules may not work!
[MTCB Software Development] nimanic:
Hi all,

i have the same issue as well, i wiped all data even twice, i installed the OpenGapp image twice, did the "MTCB MCU USERS- DSA's mtcxp xposed module has to be enabled before the status bar will show." and have copied the folder with the subfolder with the ini file to the GPS SD card. I even doublechecked the coding of the file that it is UTF-8.

I can still not see the Statusbar. I just have a black bar withnothing in it over the launcher.

I havent checked out the microGapp version of the image, is anyone expecting differences?

Thanks for your support.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
There shouldnt be a difference in the status bar between the Gapps and microG version, as I said I has a similar problem but only once, I just cant remember what it was I did to sort it.

I ll try and think.

With the BMW E46 steering wheel controls it is working right away. Also switching between Radio and BT is possible. The only thing that is not working is to start the song, this needs a touch on the screen

The microG app version is working now right away, the same way i tried to use the open G app version. Anyhow, nice system, good work.
[MTCB Software Development] typos1:
You can buy steering wheel mounted devices that use the built in SWC - you attach an infrared receiver to the key 1 and key 2 wires.

BT is pants for audio anyway - the quality its rubbish and even if it wasnt - you only get next, previous and play/pause so youd have to press next a ridiculous amount of times - if you had even a library of only 50 songs and you want to go from say track 2 to track 47 thats 45 presses of "next" lol.

Why dont use us other means of playing music ?
[MTCB Software Development] Nsx93:
