Thanks for the input. I just tried this but couldn't get it working the way I wanted... The other part of the puzzle is that I use Car Launcher Pro and the vast majority of the time and I actually plan on staying at the launcher screen most of the time (I can start my apps and control their playback from there - as well as have a nice clock, album art, weather, etc - all on a very nice looking screen). But I can't seem to get playback to resume when coming out of sleep - unless i have the music on internal storage - then it works perfectly - music just continues from where it left off (actually, it goes back about 10 seconds automatically!).

So it seems that the only way that I can get things working the way I want is to keep them music on internal storage. I think I'll just convert my SD card to internal storage and then load new music from the USB port (put new music on thumbdrive, connect it and then copt the music over). Honestly, I don't add new music all that often, so...

If anyone else has any other ideas, please don't hesitate to speak up! I'm sure I could cobble something together with tasker, but the internal storage just seems to work so much nicer...

i) Something similar will be in the next version.

ii) I can not promise. We have a very simplified BT

Tell Dasaita to release the new MCU :D

What is wrong with my apps?
[MTCD Software Development] N_Wolve:
Both the radio app and the music app arent responding to my search button (by turning it you get the next station or next track, the stock ones do but yours dont for some reason).

I'm talking about the big round knob @ a cd400 panel. see picture below:

[IMG="Button Panel"]https://www.picclickimg.com/d/l400/pict/401578877497_/Vauxhall-Insignia-2008-2013-Cd-radio-Control-Panel-Cd400-not.jpg[/IMG]

(Yes, my canbus settings are correct. No.55 GM-simple)

What launcher is this (image 16 of 17 in the first post)?

https://dl.xda-developers.com/4/6/1/2/0/5/1/18.png?key=sZy01DEX5NlX7qcNYBONJw&ts=1541055024

This looks the most like my original xtrons launcher. I tried Launcher3GS, which I thought was the xtrons one, but the widgets are different and I can only fit four big widgets, not the four smaller ones beneath them.

Just had a quick look, I always tend to do stuff like this when I really should go to bed, so I haven't had the chance to really get into it. Only tried the music app, folder skipping is the reason I flashed and that works fine (although I miss the equalizer display). Renaming the radio stations is nice, although I like the default skin of it better. Viper driver wouldn't install, but I just read that I should uninstall the magisk app for that.

I was hoping some of my TomTom issues would be gone, but alas. That's not a fault with the rom, just TomTom being annoying.

is this a opel/vauxhall? it looks like the opel insignia dashboard and it has horrible keymapping from the canbus decoder. i dont think there is a fix out there yet for this car.
[MTCD Software Development] Ati_gangster:
Hi,

As I already mentioned above, you can synchronize files on both sides with Foldersync. You can delete files on the Micro SD card/USB stick and the next time you sync, they will be deleted from the internal memory. You can add files to your media and the next time you sync, they will be synchronized to the internal memory. So you can add new music and delete old ones.
[MTCD Software Development] N_Wolve:
Ok, and yes its a vauxhall/opel insignia. The strange part is with the stock rom (apps) its working as it should. Also the rest of the buttons are working normal.

(got even the mid consol / nav button thingy next to the handbrake knob working)
[MTCD Software Development] DreckSoft:
I actually like your logo better than the one from Malasyk but the car logo still looks better.

I did. Strangely when I did the same thing again today it worked. But then it failed when going back to the HA launcher (now this one crashes). I now installed the CarDroid one till I figure everything out. Maybe I'll try the FCC launcher. I don't know what causes this behaviour. Maybe switching launchers will be easier in the next version.

That works, thanks!
[MTCD Software Development] N_Wolve:
You can use Sygic instead (its like the TomTom software, but to my opinion > better)

TomTom (europe): 20€ a year for premium, Sygic (World+traffic): €23,99 lifetime
[MTCD Software Development] ADB100:
I use 'Offline Navigation & Maps' which is free - as far as I can tell this is the same is Sygic? However there is still a 'GPS Navigation & Offline Maps Sygic' application I can install from the play store.

Andy
[MTCD Software Development] N_Wolve:
Off topic though but, the biggest difference between them is that you get traffic-info in the paid version > so you pay for traffic services. (which Tomtom asks per year with there premium version...)
[MTCD Software Development] jtrosky:
The problem is that since the internal storage is not big enough to hold my media library, I would have to convert my SD card to internal storage - and once you convert an SD card to internal storage, you can no longer read or write to the card from any other device (it's encrypted at that point) - so there is no way to add music to that SD card "externally" (would have to copy to it from a USB thumb drive or something that is also attached to the head-unit itself). I don't think Foldersync would not help in this case since there is no way to add music to the SD card (can't just copy new files to it on a WIndows PC, for example).

However, all of that being said, none of this matters becuase even when I convert the SD card to internal storage, it's still not available as soon as the device wakes (like "real" internal storage) - so it doesn't look like that is even an option... I was hoping that once the SD card was converted to internal storage, that it would be available as soon as the head-unit came out of sleep, but that doesn't seem to be the case. I wonder if the MCU cuts off access to SD card while in sleep or something.

Guess I'm going to have to monkey with Tasker to try and make it all work. Was hoping to avoid that, but...

EDIT: This is getting off-topic since I believe this would be the same regardless of the ROM being used, so I start a new thread elsewhere so that I don't clog up Hal9ks thread. :)
[MTCD Software Development] ADB100:
OK. There is a 'store' option to buy 'Premium Navigation' or 'Premium Navigation + Traffic' with the same pricing as Sygic - I don't think this turns the app into Sygic though? What are the differences in the apps?
[MTCD Software Development] jtrosky:
EDIT: opps.
[MTCD Software Development] N_Wolve:
What i can see in the videos online, is that the visuals are a bit different when it shows you to change the lane etc. but nxt to that its the same.

Meight be the same compagny behind the software (which explains the pricing).

---------- Post added at 05:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:31 PM ----------

I tested your rom a bit more, and the button works for bluetooth music, DAB etc just not the radio and music app itself.

So i want to know, is it possible for me to replace those "system" apps with the ones that came with the stock rom?

(just want to replace the 2 apps, because the rest is working flawless :highfive:)

Kind regards

I have a Hizpo MTCE_XRC2.89 arriving tomorrow to replace the 1-day old unit that worked for 10 minutes before the screen went dark. I would love to try your ROM, but I don't know how I could get the factory image to restore it back to stock in case I have to have it repaired/replaced. Is there a way to back up the factory rom, or am I reliant on the reseller/manufacturer providing me with an image. If the latter is the case, how does one approach them to ask for an image without revealing the desire to root/replace the factory image?

I think this is probably irrelevant, as the seller on Amazon (JBY TECH) never even responded to my requests for help after the first unit went out. And, with my luck, that's what would happen (inoperable screen) after flashing a non-stock rom, without any ability to restore...
[MTCD Software Development] onefast50:
i ran the 6 install, then ran the 8 update.....all good now. So far nice room!!!
[MTCD Software Development] derART:
Nice Rom :) Thx for this one. But i have one Problem. I use an "Speed Limit Radar Warn App". Normally it warns with Sound Output, but if i listen Music, the App is mute. On Stock Rom, the Music Paused for the "Radar App" Sound-Output and after the Warning Sound, the Music Plays again. Any Solution? Thx

[MTCD Software Development] Asterion:
Hi there,

I've installed this rom a couple of days ago.

At first sight, it does a great job. Responds very well, look great.

But I have some problems i'm facing with.

I shut down the head unit after 10 minutes to save battery as I don't ride the car everyday.

- I can't choose apps to start at boot, only when it comes out of sleep.

- I've installed another launcher but when the head unit boots it comes up with the original launcher. What do I have to do?

Hi.

Can i install this rom in joying UM135P2?

I am confused...

See attachment,

My unit is 2GB+32

I can not see MTCD/E in my photo

Thank you
[MTCD Software Development] Toto1365:
yes you can, you have to take this guide:

If you have Android 6 installed:

This method is also suitable for a full recovery of HU with Android 8 or 6 if it does not boot, including even in recovery.

Download and unpack the archive Hal9k_Mod_3.x_Android_6.0_upgrade.rar

Insert the SD card into the card reader. It is desirable to use a small card, 2-4-8 GB.

Run the SD_Firmware_Tool application as Administrator.

You do not need to switch any settings. Everything is set up.

Click the "Firmware" button and select the file bootcard.img

Click the "Create" button, then "Yes" and wait until the message with the "Ok" button appears.

Close SD_Firmware_Tool.

Copy the sdupdate.img file to this card, replacing the existing one.

Remove the SD card from the card reader and insert into the HU in the GPS slot.

Now you need to completely reboot the HU. This can be done by pressing the RST (Reset) button with a paperclip etc.

If the HU does not reboot, then this button (or the Power button) must be held down until the buttons backlight flashes. Then release.

As a last resort, you can disconnect and reconnect the power cable.

When the message "Doing actions succeeded. Please remove the sdcard ..." appears, remove the SD card from the HU.

HU will reboot in recovery Android 8.

Insert the USB flash drive with firmware file update.zip into the USB connector of the radio. It must be formatted in FAT32.

I recommend to take out all the other flash drives, SD cards, modems and other devices from the radio jacks.

Select the menu item "Apply update system" - "From usb storage"

The firmware will be installed.

(You can use the SD card for installation, but it will be slower.)

Select the menu item "Wipe data / factory reset".

The user data will be cleared.

Select the menu item "Reboot system now".

The device will reboot in Android 8.
[MTCD Software Development] roxdragon:
Thank you.

But my unit is 2/32GB. I can not find a stock firmware with android 8. Are you sure?

[MTCD Software Development] Lum_UK:
Got two problems now.

Received a bluetooth call with no caller info, and the answer call button did not work. The hang up button did work however. When I later pulled over and investigated it turned out the call was via Telegram, not a normal phone call, which explains why, but it would be better if either the answer call button worked, or the radio didn't attempt to handle the call.

Still got my ongoing issue with google maps. Searching for a place that's been in my history causes maps to crash out at the point where I hit the "directions" button after locating where I want to go. And also for some reason maps sometimes makes this unit's screen go blank with no recovery except a pin reset. Stock and Malay ROMs didn't have either of these. I can work around the first maps issue by doing things like searching for street address instead of business name as then it's a new location and doesn't cause the crash, but the latter I haven't found a cause for, and is incredibly annoying,
[MTCD Software Development] Toto1365:

[MTCD Software Development] SkyBeam2048:
As you don't have an MTCA/B/C/D unit but instead a Joying custom MCU I am afraid you can only contact Joying to supply updates. Related questions to your unit might be asked in the Android Head Units General forum. But I see you already opened a thread there and you got the same response already.

The problem with those Joying units is that they are "less open" than MTCx platform. I guess also Joying is using some kind of standard platform but the user base might be too small to build custom ROMs for those devices or they might be locked.

[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
GS with it's widgets

In this case, you need to clear the data of the Launcher3 application.

The next version will be able to deal with this.

Yes, but then my changes will be lost.

[MENTION=943895]erkme73[/MENTION] You can try to find your ROM here: https://yadi.sk/d/umCvHqCDzHccr

Try adding this application to the “List of navi applications” or select another audio channel in the application, if possible.

Use "Auto sleep". It's not scary. :)

In the sleeping state, the HU consumes less than the alarm system.

Set your launcher as defalut.

Do you really think everyone knows what a "Phoenix Android PX5" is? :)

Latest Joying systems are not compatible with MTCD(E).

I ask to be based on the screenshots from the first post. The author is not responsible for bricked devices. :D

You can upgrade the MCU, but nothing will change. Better wait for the next version of the Mod.

You need to delete HA widgets /system/app/HCTwidgetHA

I think yes.

But pay attention to promo in the first post. Then the firmware is guaranteed to work. :)

I add what seems to me important in the first post. You can also suggest what to add.

Is it possible to completely hide the Status bar?
[MTCD Software Development] SkyBeam2048:
I guess you are looking for a settings menu and then the answer is clearly: No!

In fact technically it is possible to change it of course. But it requires creating a custom recovery image to be flashed as it is kind of "hard coded" into the image. So you would have to extract the image, replace the picture, re-create and sign the image and flash it.

Theoretically it would be possible to automate the process creating an image-generator. However I guess nobody will spend time on it. Also I believe giving some credits to the ROM maker is appreciated.

[MENTION=472138]hal9k[/MENTION]: As an idea you might think about offering customized recovery boot images for "high-value" donors providing you a valid picture.

Hello,

I've found out that the radio has a way more volume when switching on than other apps. For example, when using Spotify at level 10, if i start the radio, it will be like it's on level 15. In order to listen to radio i need to set the volume to 4, to be as loud as other apps at level 10.

Is this something that happens to stock also or it's just something with the app or rom? And is there a way i can normalize all apps?

Thanks,

I also miss a way to normalize the volume. In the PC Radio app volume is sufficient 1-2In the speed camera APP is hardly something to understand although volume in the app to full i the radio app I have to adjust the volume to 5-6 to have the same as in PC radio.
