Disaster strikes!

My unit is an Xtrons TB103AP and MCU version is 3.00

It only has soft buttons on the screen and a reset button behind the screen.

I followed the instructions on the first page to upgrade from Android 6 to 8

When the message "Doing actions succeeded. Please remove the sdcard ..." appeared I removed the SD card from the HU.

The HU rebooted but stopped with the error message "E: failed to mount /metadata

I pushed reset and booted from the same SD

Again the message "Doing actions succeeded. Please remove the sdcard ..." appeared I removed the SD card from the HU.

Again the HU rebooted but never came back to life just a blank screen.

I then disconnected and reconnected the battery -ve lead

I still have a completely black screen, I can not get back to recovery using the reset button, nothing works at all except if I push the CD eject button I can hear a it making a whiring noise to eject a disk so I know it has power.

Any advice would be appreciated please

Thanks

Hello @ hal9k, do you plan to make a new compilation in the medium or short term, based on the latest dasaita update ?:

Phew!

I have got it going again I loaded a stock Android 6 recovery image via the SD card and did a power off reset.

I was about to give up because nothing visible was happening but after 10 minutes the screen burst into life and the image began to restore

So now I have a a question

When I booted [MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION] Android 8 recovery and after the HU rebooted I thought it had stopped with the error message "E: failed to mount /metadata"

Should I have waited for a long time e.g >10 minutes to see if it continued or had it really hung at that point?
[MTCD Software Development] f465gt:
According to the search function, this is caused by the used SD card. Hence USB devices are recommended. (https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=78753070&postcount=1762)

Ah ok thanks, I have used this card several times in this PX5 with other Android 6 mods, I will try a different one.

Hi, I have PX5 octa 4/32gb MTCE MX v3. 17 unit with Hal9k Mod v3.1.2 installed from few days. Before that I was with stock ROM. I have following problem with stock and now with Hal9k ROM - when I remove the key from ignition unit goes to sleep (Auto Sleep is selected) but it completely shuts down after undefined period of time. Some time it stays in sleep for 1-2 days (when I'm not using the car) other times it shuts down when i stop for few minutes in a petrol station. I want to stay in sleep mode.

I red a lot in this and other threads but i didn't found any other such case.

Please if someone has idea what would cause this complete shutdown of the unit let me know. Could it be a hardware problem?

Thank you!

Google Maps

Hi,

I did search for this issue but couldn't see anything recent so apologies if I've missed the answer.

Has anyone else had issues with the latest version of Goggle Maps? My head unit with this rom on it has been working fine for months however I have noticed today that when I load up Google Maps it mutes \turns off whatever music source I have playing (radio, Deezer & stock music player tested so far.) If I then close\minimise Google Maps the music will automatically start playing again.

I'm assuming that a Google Maps update has changed something but has anyone any idea what LOL!

Thanks for any help.

Will there be a mod for Android 9 in the future?

I currently have stock Android 9 (PX5) and I'm wondering if it's better to stay with 9 or downgrade to 8 and install this mod.

Is downgrade to Android 8 possible if I have Android 9?

What are the differences between Android 8 and 9 on MTCD/E HU?
[MTCD Software Development] Clandaries:

[MTCD Software Development] dubbingt:
Can anyone with Malaysk PX5 oreo rom confirm they have successfully installed Hal9k rom in its place based on the directions Hal9k_ provided? Would like to try out the rom but dont have enough time right now to make the attempt and have to troubleshoot if any issues arise.

From the release notes, it has Magisk which would be handy to install youtube vanced.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
[MENTION=2862342]dubbingt[/MENTION] I can confirm. :)

I recommend doing a wipe during installation.

You will have to spend time installing programs, but there will be no problems that can be inherited.
[MTCD Software Development] dankec2000:
Eter711, did you wipe user data after flashing?
[MTCD Software Development] p_mike83:
[MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION] your Rom seems interesting. i am running Malaysk V2 right now, but i will definitely try yours in the near future.

Could you provide more info/video how the carousel works? how to choose the apps to circle? is any config file needed? Does the mode change respects the audio focus, or this can be done if third party apps will be added in the list of apps that cannot run together.

Is it possible in your rom to remap buttons of the Steering wheel (if using canbus)? (like mtc keys)

I have also one idea, most navi applications use android TTS engines for voice commands. Could you add also those apps in the list of "navi" apps , so that playing audio switches/mixes when an announcement is made?
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
The carousel works as usual :) But you can remove unnecessary and add your applications.

If the list is empty, the first time the Mode button is pressed, it is filled with a standard set.

Which you can change.

No configuration in the text files - just simple visual settings.

You correctly understood that in order for the previous third-party application to stop playing, it should be in the list of apps that can not run together.

This is planned for the next version.

I did not check this case. You can add your applications to the Navi apps list and check.

Also, for this you can select the Notification audio channel in your navigation application, if possible.
[MTCD Software Development] typos1:
Go ahead and try it you wont be disappointed - [MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION] makes the best MTC ROMs.
[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
Can I switch to SuperSU instead of Magisk?

Date in statusbar possible?

Some Navigation Apps (copilot) have problems with 3d overlay, is this fixed?
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
1. Since you have a root, yes, if you know what to do. But what bad with Magisk?

2. No

3. I have not heard of such a problem. Give a link to the application and tell in details.
[MTCD Software Development] eter711:
yes i did, i had a lot of trash on my old rom, time for some fresh setup :)

I will test the rom and report back here

[MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION]

TomTom GO also has problems with 3D rendering - no roads are displayed - in 2D everything is fine (tested with Stock & malaysk Oreo - but what i have read it is a TomTom not Oreo problem).

You can see it on the Video from 0:22:

[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
Magisk does not work really good. In the past I had some problems with apps that need root but doesn't work well with magisk. With supersu no problems at all.

I will take some pictures tomorrow or Saturday from my copilot.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
Which apps ? I have not yet encountered such apps.
[MTCD Software Development] royalhawk2002:
Thank you for your work. I have a Xtrons Jeep Grand Cherokee Specific unit and I will test your ROM soon.

[MTCD Software Development] maus05:
A friend installed your rom yesterday and he reported that magisk crashes sometimes.

Can magisk simply deleted? So I will root it over adb with supersu.
[MTCD Software Development] royalhawk2002:
[MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION]

it is possible to "mask" the root for some application ? There are some app, like "Premium Play", that will not run if installed in a rooted device.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
[MENTION=2507474]maus05[/MENTION] At me such was not never. Also, none of the 4pda users who installed the firmware told me about it.

Under what conditions is this happening?

Update Magisk causes a failure. So I turned off the update reminder.

To remove, you must restore the original boot and remove Magisk Manager app
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
[MENTION=1227970]royalhawk2002[/MENTION] You can try to use Magisk Hide for it.
[MTCD Software Development] royalhawk2002:
Sorry for my ignorance ... could you please give me instruction for it ?
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
I can confirm this. And also I think that this is the problem of TomTom.

Yandex Navi which I use works fine in 3D.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
The Radio application simply controls the tuner and does not affect reception.

The reception may be affected by the MCU.

The sd-card you had in de gps-slot was still a booteble sd-card. You maybe deleted (of soft-formatted) the sd-card but not the boot-part of the card. I had the same thing. You can use the SD_firmware_tool to restore the SD-card or you can 'hard-format' the card (I think).

I installed the rom myself this afternoon. Very happy with it! I was coming from Android 6.0 (malaysk 7.0). I tried installing Malaysk-Android 8.0 before but never succeeded. Always ended with a very black screen and big problems unbricking it. Now, i am finally on 8.0 and the unit feels faster than before!

I also like the customisations of this rom. But also there is one thing I liked better in Android 6.0/Malaysk 7.0. I try to explane and hope someone has an sullution for it:

I use Agama launcher (really love it, bougth the full version). While driving I like to have the Agama Homescreen or Google Maps on top (in foreground) and FM/tuner or music playing in background. With my previous version, when I pressed the mode-button on steering wheel, the apps switched in the background from FM/tuner to music or visa-versa, I never saw it happening, the screen would stay on Agama Homescreen or Maps. But now when i press the mode-button, the new app opens in foreground and I have to manually go to Agama Homescreen or Maps again.

I liked the previous way better. Do you understand what I mean? And maybe someone knows a sollution?

Hello,

I installed the Rome yesterday. Unfortunately I'm not satisfied.

1. The reception is worse than the Malaysian Rome

2. Installing a launcher is not good

3. Start time after ignition on the whole 1:45 and until I can hear music pass 3:00 minutes until then the radio does not accept any key commands, it only reacts to touch but a tone is heard only after 3:00 Minuten.Bei Malaysk starts whole after 25 seconds.

I installed it according to instructions drive a VW Tiguan and have a Dasaita radio

I think I'm going back to Malaysk Rome
[MTCD Software Development] pjs_hull:
The Xtrons unit I have takes approx 1-2 seconds to boot up from ignition on
[MTCD Software Development] ChriChra:
Hey,

awesome Rom...superfast. I like it very much!!! Thanks [MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION]

But I need a little advice: I use Tasker to automatically start the App "Blitzer.de PLUS" after boot. This works fine. But after sleep the app is closed and I din't manage to restart it. If Tasker is in fullscreen before sleep, the app starts again. If I'm on home screen (with Blitzer.de PLUS running als widget) the app also starts after sleep (or better to say the app don't exits at sleep, cause in this case there is not "app screen" which is showing after appstart before the widget appears). But if another app (Radio, Mediaplayer,...) is running fullscreen at the moment of sleep, the app didn't start again

Did someone managed to prevent the app to exit on sleep or restart right after waking up?
[MTCD Software Development] davewpy:
Is USB audio working?
[MTCD Software Development] Clandaries:
For me to.

Boot from ignition 1-2 seconds.

Reboot about 10-15 seconds.

And Nova Launcher working nicely.

Regards
[MTCD Software Development] LJ1981:
You need to whitelist Tasker and other apps you don't want to get killed during sleep in mod settings.

There you can also set which apps you want to restart after sleep etc.
[MTCD Software Development] Hal9k_:
[MENTION=957887]ChriChra[/MENTION] I think for this application it is suitable to include it in the white list.

[MENTION=3186208]davewpy[/MENTION] I do not have the appropriate equipment.
[MTCD Software Development] TT_Vert:
Did you wipe before install? I don't have this ROM but given nobody else is complaining of this it probably isn't the ROM. I see no reason his ROM would do that and even the stock ROM boot time is less than a minute so there is something else going on there. Do a wipe/factory reset and see if that helps.

[MTCD Software Development] Garfanki:
When I listen music with bluetooth from my phone the sound is very bad... (very swish)... is there a way to improve the audio?
[MTCD Software Development] ChriChra:
This was my first try. Didn't work. Just whitlisting Blitzer.de (or Blitzer.de PLUS) don't start the App. Neither after reboot nor in wakeup state (after manual start before sleep). Also i tried the app "Autostart" (before Tasker, cause I hoped not to spend money just for this)...nope. Thats why I tried Tasker und this works after restart but not after sleep (Tasker and Blitzer.de is added to whitelist). I also tried mtcdtools (from PlayStore) and its whitelist...nothing after sleep. :(

What I also noticed is that neither Tasker, Blitzer.de nor mtcdtools have a icon in taskbar after sleep even though both apps are added to all white lists (in your mod and in mtcdtools itself). After reboot all 3 apps have its icons and work.

Normaly its not that problem to start Blitzer.de after sleep by hand...but murphys law says: if I miss it one time, a speed cam would be in my way. :rolleyes:

So, does anyone have an idea?

After a quick search I saw you (@raflkoeln) have/had the same problem. Did you find a solution?

Absolutely can't confirm this. Had also tried Malaysk Rom before. Was extremely slow. Hal2k_'s Rom is fast as hell!! :good:

Something must have gone wrong during your installation ...
[MTCD Software Development] wanze2001:

[MTCD Software Development] me40:
Trying Hal9k's ROM almost month and more or less runs OK but there is one thing I cannot understand - SWC (steering wheel control) works through a CAN BUS decoder for my brand and model (Renault Laguna). With the stock ROM and steering wheel keys apk it was possible to assign short and long press action for each key or just to disable completely any specific key if I want . Now with Hal9k ROM the original apk cannot be used anymore and instead of it I should use the feature for key mapping in the MOD settings but there is no anymore long press detection and even worse - cannot disable a key to map through other apk at all.

What I've tried is - assign key number by its number and in target key I chose "none" but the respective key is still mapped. For example the "speaking" key on my SWC is mapped by default in that ROM to a Bluetooth apk for phone - I want to disable it from ROM's control and to assign it to Siri in my CarPlay adapter apk - its press is detected in the "new" apk but it's still linked to Bluetooth apk through MOD key replacing feature :( Is there any clue how this can be fixed and why this MOD feature cannot be override by the original SWC apk or any other such as my CarPlay apk. Hardware is the same, MCU is the same ... what has been changed after Hal9k ROM that has changed all this behavior?

Hi guys ashamed to say I have serious problem I cant figure out.

Basically 1 minute head unit is totally dead. Then like a miracle it springs in to life working perfectly until I switch off ignition and it shuts down / sleeps again.

While dead it does nothing. no life atall. Even reverse is blank. Also press n holding power button gets no response or flashes. Today i started going through fuses an all ok. Put key in and it powered straight up. Tried a 2nd time and its dead again.

New hal rom has been in over a week a d no problems at all. Its been running great.

The only 'issues' ive had have been with the reverse camera. Sometimes its normal, others image is upside down. Others image is reversed. Weird !
