I use this launcher and Power amp.

If I use the widget to have the player in the main launcher screen it stops playing after 2 minutes. The control buttons don’t work either, physical or screen buttons.

If I open power mp it works as usual. What am I doing wrong?

Loaded AG onto an older HTC One M7. Works great so far. Totally stable and the home screen button hijack feature works consistently. I use Napster to play music. I also use my LG G4 in hotspot mode to provide data connection to the M7. It works so well, I think I am ready to migrate from regular car stereo to new setup. My plan is to use a Mimics G4 to remote control my normal phone with a 7" Raspberry Pi display. That will give me full touch control car entertainment system up high, with my phone in a cradle down low. Audio will get to car system via aux. or bluetooth. I haven't decided on that yet, although if I use aux., I can use FM station app. when in town, and my built-in phone FM tuner for when I might be in really bad reception areas with no data. That last issue does make aux. function appealing.

I really like that the touch screen will be able to power down with car off, and just fire up real quick when I turn on the car. Super simple solution is possible thanks to Launcher AG being such a good looking/working app.

Was ok, the latest update brings a tacky looking splash screen which cannot be disabled (even in paid version) and has unintuitive button customisation.

Will be trying other options.
[Android Head-Units] andreyirra:
New version has an horrible splash screen which shows after booting and when you load a heavy app like google maps and proceed to return to the launcher.

I can't check the weather data because it says No GPS even though the rest of the system uses it normally.
[Android Head-Units] ste2002:
There are many complaints about GPS in latest release.
[Android Head-Units] chucktaylur:
New version also doesnt allow customization of the home screen buttons. Id say the only improvement was the addition of the mic button to the home screen. Everything else was a downgrade.
[Android Head-Units] marchnz:
Customisation is still there, just difficult and not intuitive. Hold and swipe in.

Developer hasn't responded to my email.
[Android Head-Units] Petesky:
First update was nuts , could only select kph

207 worked fine

208 GPS not working sometimes

209 everything working again

please no more updates lol
[Android Head-Units] DeJe63:
I am back to 1.5.1

To be honest I am really disappointed from version 2.x. Its not intuitive, simple or straigthforward anymore. :(

Even for operate it in the car you need more clicks, touches, swipes to get things done which before was one or two touches...

For example switch the inner view (logo, clock, music player, ...). :rolleyes:

It's a pity but I think I have to look for an alternative...
[Android Head-Units] chucktaylur:
Anyone having problems uninstalling the AG version of this app? I tried to install the new AGMA version but I keep getting a failed message. I figure it was because I had the old AG version installed. However, when I try to uninstall the AG version, the uninstall button is greyed out.
[Android Head-Units] royalhawk2002:
Installed the new AGMA paid version on my Xtrons PX5 Oreo.

I found some issues:

- Temperature is not working

- Google voice is not working

- Volume control is not working

- If it is set up as default launcher, then pressing "home" button nothing happen

The rest , for the moment, is ok.
[Android Head-Units] sean19661:
Dose anyone know if the weather has been fixed ?This is the only problem I have. I went back to 1.5 all works for that version I have bought the full version and no response from the developer!
[Android Head-Units] skezza:
Just tried this. Not brilliant.

Decided it wasn't for me.
[Android Head-Units] Petesky:
Dont know why people are knocking this , I think it works great , everything that was in original app works

in the updated app with improvements, I disabled animations and it works better
[Android Head-Units] sean19661:
Complaints are because certain features are not working like weather for me also support from development is terrible I sent them email regarding this issue no response terrible when I go back to version 1.5xxx everything works I paid for the full version I deserve everything to be working with the updates asked several times to fix !! No replies!!
[Android Head-Units] giasoy:
On a dasaita PX5 Oreo, I have exactly the same issues, when the trial period will finish I will uninstall it.
[Android Head-Units] weevil_:
Yeah, a couple of little things are not working for me but they are only very minor. New version looks so much better and the quick selection of alternate apps is great.

Hello,

are there still solutions for

* a working Home-Button, which doesnt react

* google voice

* working volume sliders?

I'm on a PX5 xtrons device and it wont work for me.

thanks in advance for your help.
[Android Head-Units] Redbullssg:
Everything seems to be working great for me so far. But, the volume control, controls the android system volume on my Joying HU, which is static and controlled by something else. If I try to turn the volume down, it changes for a second or two and then defaults to max. The volume on the HU buttons remains unchanged. Meaning the android system volume is defaulted to max, and reverts back to that no matter what, and the joying volume remains at what it was set to originally...

Is there a way to apply the volume settings to the other?
[Android Head-Units] H0U5ECAT:
Mitchello, this is happening to me too.

It first started with the GPS on previous versions of 2.0 on home screen, but now it's happening with the music player in home screen.

I'm using Isense media player and after about 20 - 30 mins, I get the black screen of death.

Mine is a MTCD 1gb running 5.1. version 2.1.4 of paid.

So I did some testing today....

If I have the player running and stay in the isense app, no crashing.

If I go back to the home screen, then it crashes after the period of time.

I have not done any testing with the GPS yet.

Have you had any luck in rectifying this?
[Android Head-Units] marcus82:
I just installed this on my TESLA STYLE 10.4 HU and I have the same issue with the volume...

I'm using this launcher long time now, but with the last Poweramp beta update I get a blurry album cover. Anyone else?
[Android Head-Units] B3rt:
Hi,

I got 1 anoying problem.

I cannot open the BT streaming app, when i click on the app of BT streaming then the BT app opens for pairing and calling options.

I use a Joying head unit which has a BT audio streaming app for playing music by BT streaming.

When i switch back to the stock launcher the BT streaming app works normal, but when AGAMA launcher is used it opens not the correct APP.

The developer sadly does not give any support on his product, i mailed them several times but they never respond on any mail send or even fix this problem, i am having this problem now more then 6 months and reported it several times.

Anyone an idea how to fix this or does someone know an other BT player APP what does function with this launcher?
[Android Head-Units] Kheissi:
Hello. I had the same problem with the BT streaming. I solved it by creating a new app for the streaming function using Tasker app factory. It basically does a new shortcut icon to BT streaming and it is visible in app drawer.
[Android Head-Units] iepu:
autoplay

I use it for a while now. When in 1.5.6 had a decent experience, with some resets, not sure the cause.

I went to 2.1.4 but the autoplay music when powered was a no go, I only need it when BT is connected. And it is clear this is a ‘feature’ of the launcher. saw many asked for a solution but no one answered if any. So, anyone found how to stop that autoplay in v 2?
[Android Head-Units] Kakamal:
I purchased this app last year but I've found too many bugs then I've got no choice but revert back to default launcher. Today I've decided to give it a second chance with the hope this latest update would solve some of the previous problems sadly it wasn't in fact it even worse. It still go back to the stock radio/music every time I start up the car even though I already set this launcher as default and always on top. The stock radio will stop once go back to the home screen. Stock music played without cover and title. Spotify, Poweramp and Google Play Music can't be controlled by the steering wheel button. Seriously very frustrated with this app feels like the developer steals my money as they never reply to my email.
[Android Head-Units] mitchello:
I gave up on it pretty quickly, wasn't super into the design anyway.

I switched to Nova launcher Pro and customised it with big icons and it works a treat.

Has anyone got the microphone button to work I get error message can't find Google voice search when I choose Google in the settings it still doesn't work
[Android Head-Units] LZPRIV:
Volume control workaround on buttonless HU

Like many of you on this thread, I love the simple efficient GUI of Car Launcher AG, amazing work from the developer ! yet I have come to the frustration of volume control like many of you on bare HU like mine : PE88CMPL from XTRONS which has absolutely zero buttons at all.

So I went on eBay and bought "Car steering wheel remote control buttons wireless android gps navigation", connected it to Key 1/Key 2, Ground and acc 12V.

Programmed the buttons to volume up down mute and other useful functions such as back/home/gps/answer call/hang up and shutdown.

These setups are in the Car Steering Wheel area in settings.

Those buttons are super small and come with a 3M double face on the back and can be properly installed on the console at arm/finger reach.

I saws that JOYING sells a larger one that fits in cups holder "JOYING SWC Steering Wheel Controller for Android Universal Car GPS Stereo Radio" if you prefer that design.

I haven't tried to program the microphone to redirect to Google search yet, but I will give it a try to see if it can fix the mic GUI issue too.

Enjoy :fingers-crossed:

[Android Head-Units] EwaldB:
Hi there, how do I change icons, icon's color, applying icon packs, changing textcolor, please?

Theme Editor seems not to change button's text i.e. Radio NAVI MUSIC... by default. Thanks for your hints
[Android Head-Units] eac:
Hi guys!

I see here many of you are very excited about the presence of the microphone icon on the launcher's GUI.

I have a question for you: do you know how can I get rid of it?

And most of all, how can I have back the Speed/Parking time icon?

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Car Launcher AGAMA version 2.1.4

you can only change colors and background with Theme Editor.

If you want to edit text of buttons: longpress button. Then edit text, icon and app.
[Android Head-Units] eac:
Well, my dears,

Thanks for anyone who wanted to answer me, but doesn't have enough time.

Meantime I solved my problem and I want to share, because it could help others.

And so we have:

- problem: replace the microphone icon with the Speed/ParkingTime icon in Car Launcher AG

- solution: install CarWebGuru Launcher ;)

Hi Guys,

I have just installed this on my unit and I am having issues with the Phone side I can't add the phone as it can't find the app ? how do I find this app on my head unit so it works.

I also have it on my samsung galaxy tab A for testing and even thou I can add it on there but when I select it it goes to contacts instead ?
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Same for me on a Dasaita unit. Simply selected the Bluetooth app. Now phone works.

BTW: Car Launcher Agama has an update (version 2.2.0). Now the Google button works!

- Support Poweramp v3
- Music autoplay for Poweramp
- Support Google Search on Android 7 and up
- Parking time (turns on in the Quick button settings)
- New language: Ukrainian and Greek
- Bug fixing and optimization
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Some feedback after using the new version (on Dasaita PX5, Android 8):

v 2.2.0 runs very smooth

Google speech button now works

also the setting "always on top" now works fine

unfortunately the volume control in launcher doesn't work anymore

Wishlist:

back button should work like Home button (instead of switch off sound)

also show default radio and default mediaplayer in center widget (other player works)
[Android Head-Units] Jug35:
Hello in here

Just installed v.2.3.0, but cannot figure out what the new "Auto Widget" function is supposed to do. It just turns green when pressed. Anyone else experiencing something else?

[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Just updated today. Have to test it

New:
1) New design opportunities:
- 3D effect
- Imitation of stitching line
2) Autowidget with settings
- Logo widget - when the launcher starts
- Clock widget - when car is worth
- Speedometer widget - when car is moving
- Navigator widget - before maneuver
- Music widget - when new track begins

Fixed and improved:
1) Support Android 9
2) Running applications with double shortcuts
3) Optimized weather loading (does not affect the UI)
4) Car brand on the clock widget
[Android Head-Units] daniel.sun:
I didn't tried it yet, but in the main screen you can choose it if you press the middle pic in the main screen.

I have a question, too.

Before Updating to PowerAmp v3 I was able to start/stop music from the main screen. Since the Update PowerAmp will start and puts the car launcher in in the background, so that I have to press the Home Button to get it back. After that I can I can Play/Plause from the main like before.

Maybe you have some advice.
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Spend some time to test the new version. The Auto-Widget works. You have to tap the center widget. Then you see an new option "Auto". Longpress it. Now you can select the the wanted modes. Works fine. There are also some more options in the design editor.

Hmm, wasn't it the main behaviour? After selecting an app in launcher it opens. Then you have to go back via home button.
[Android Head-Units] koutsouk:
Well in my case the navigator widget in auto mode does not work. The navigation app is Sygic latest version. Sygic heared in the background but the center widget does not change when the information is heared.

Can you please check it out ?

I have the latest full version of your app also.
[Android Head-Units] ultimax_sg:
Hi,

Just wanted to say I love Car Launcher AG. I've tried a few, including the other popular ones, and found yours to be the most stable and clean. The others allow a high degree of customisation but I've found that also comes with a lot of bugs.

Having used Car Launcher AG for a few weeks now, here are a few suggestions I hope you can consider:

1. Consider shifting the settings button somewhere else? Perhaps the screen after you tap the middle. It presently takes up space on the main screen when we don't use it that often, or even need to see it.

2. In place of the present settings button, perhaps create the option for a shortcut to an app. For example, some might like to have quick access to Torque or their Tyre Pressure app. These shortcuts can be created in the main screen, but out of the 6 only 5 can be configured. And I rather use them to describe categories rather than for a single type of app. For example, "navigation", "music", "video" so within each I can add 4 more related apps by sliding my finger to the middle).

3. Consider adding "trip distance" to the bottom left of the screen (sorry, can't remember what that section is called). It presently has parking time (when stationary) and speed (when the car's moving). I personally think trip distance would be a very useful addition. The 3 can rotate among each other. I know the info is available if I choose the speedo centre widget, but I rather have the album cover displayed).

Thanks!
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
Does someone know how this works or what it means?
[Android Head-Units] Tgnastic:
Hello! How can I put the digital clock in the middle? I only get analog. Thank you
[Android Head-Units] Manfred.62:
In the center widget? Think there's only analog style. Tap on the time in the top, then you get a fullscreen digital clock.
[Android Head-Units] Tgnastic:
Yes, in the center. In the upper part I prefer other information.

Guys anyone has problem with the home button with version 2.3.4? It stopped working after that update and i tried everything with no luck.

I reverted with titanium to 2.3.2 and its fine now.

I emailed the creator throw playstore and i wait now.

Its nice because it makes me to be more economic in my driving.

I have atoto a6 premium. If I use this launcher the app easy connect doesn't start. With default launcher it works well. Do you know this problem?
[Android Head-Units] eatabagel:
I just installed it. I've only owned my head unit for a day. It's an XTRONS P78M209 PX5 with hardware buttons. I flashed HAL9K's ROM. I was playing around with many settings, and then my home/menu button stopped working and didn't bring me back to Car Launcher Agama. I did do a hard power off and power on with the head unit and the home/menu button has worked ever since. It's just been a day, so let's see.

I love this launcher. I like its simplicity... granted you can't really customize much with it, but it does everything I need a car launcher to do.

My only problem is I can't get the navigation widget to work. I've given the right notification permissions to Car Launcher Agama, and selected Google Maps as my navigation software, with Agama, but the widget isn't working at all. Has anyone gotten this to work?
[Android Head-Units] BlueChris:
It runs with the latest version and working fine? I have no problem with the previous version so im ok.

For the google maps issue its happening many versions now and i had mail the developer and he told me this broke after a maps update and he is trying to fix it with no luck yet. I went to sygic and it works there (you need to long press the navigation icon to get the chsnge navigation app setting)even though google maps is my daily driver since you can press home and its becoming a small window above everything.

I use another one great thing with overlay which is tomtom cameras that its pretty good to reduce speed when you are reaching a speed camera cough cough.
[Android Head-Units] Draguxen:
Is there any way to be able so that background apps for music doesn't close after I close them in the Agama Launcher?

In the default launcher, I connected Bluetooth and I listened Spotify or even the music from the phone, using bluetooth in the car with a2dp. When I use Agama Launcher, I am able to open and use this app, then the sound starts and all seems fine, but when I go back to the launcher, the sound stops. It's the same with Radio.

Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] BlueChris:
How you go back? I go back by pressing the home button in my device or in my steering wheel and all continues to play fine.
[Android Head-Units] Draguxen:
In my case, the Home button didn't work, so when I wanted to go back to the launcher, I had to press the back buttom.
[Android Head-Units] giant53:
The BACK button closes the actual app. That's its function. Returning to your default launcher is done withe the HOME button. Did you register AGAMA as your default launcher?
[Android Head-Units] BlueChris:
I had exactly the same problem, i explain it some posts back and its agama latest version problem.

I rolled back to 2.3.2 with my titanium backup and im fine now.

I emailed the developer with no reply yet.

Can you email him also to fix this problem?
[Android Head-Units] Draguxen:
Sure, no problem. What is his email?

How do I go back to 2.3.2 version? Do I have to install that titaniam backup app, or I have to search the apk online?
[Android Head-Units] BlueChris:
I found the mail from the app info in playstore.

If you don't have backup you cannot restore so there is no point to install now titanium but you will sure find the previous version online and don't forget to disable the app settings in playstore not to autoupdate itself till the problem is fixed by the app creator.
