GPS issue 4.02

[MENTION=472138]hal9k[/MENTION]

I am very satisfied with your mod since v3.00 so I donated some time ago. Now I installed version 4.02 but now I have some issues:

GPS isn't that accurate. Sometimes my GPS app says "Welcome to [another country]" and right after "Welcome to [my country]". This was not the case with v4.00.

white list of items that start after sleep does not always work well. This was also on v4.00.

I already have the latest MCU version installed 3.40 for PX5 GS.

Update on the OBD issue

I found out CS-X has the newest MTCE-GS-3.44 MCU file and I wanted to try that as my sound quality wasn't as good on 3.33. Having flashed this I decided to give Realdash a go, I opened the app and it said "not paired to Carly Adapter" so I swiped down and went to settings and then made my way to Bluetooth and when I clicked the Carly adapter it says "pair and connect" I pressed yes and then realdash was working! I went for a drive and everything was great.

Popped into the shop and then I opened realdash again only to find it cycling a connection :(

Having seen it work for the first time I decided to try a few things, what I found was I needed to delete the Carly OBD from the Bluetooth app (not the settings) and when I did that I found that the Carly adapter kept appearing back into the lost of paired devices which was really annoying. I turned the Carly adapter off and then deleted the Carly adapter from the Bluetooth app and of course I couldn't pop back into the list again.. I rebooted the unit completely, I fired up realdash and I got the "Carly adapter not paired" I swiped down went back to settings and Bluetooth then when I clicked the Carly adapter it said "pair and connect" then realdash worked again!

I know the above was very long but at the end of the day someone experienced like Hal9k may identify what may be happening by adding in all the details..

I don't know what to try as of yet but I'm wondering if I can make a backup of the Bluetooth app and try another one being's as it seems the adapter can't carry on after it's already been paired and I believe the Bluetooth APK deals with that.

Hi,

Really nice rom. Loving it.

Any chance one could start a tasker task or an intent from the hardware buttons?

[MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION]

Can you please help me disable the warning message about outdated firmware? It reads:

"Attention

You have an outdated firmware version.

A new version 4.0 Android 9 is available.

OK"

and if I press OK, it takes me to your webpage to make a donation (which I have already done, but I DO NOT WANT the 4.0 Android 9 upgrade - I am perfectly happy with my setup as it is). However, this message keeps appearing just about every time I boot the unit.

I have already tried the following:

Settings>System>Developer Options>Automatic System Updates (turned off already)

Settings>Car>Mod Settings>System Update>Auto check update (turned off already)

Please help me as I am not the only one who drives this car - my elderly parents do and this popup is a deathblow to old people who don't understand technology. The popup stays on the screen and prevents my AutoKit from running.

Thank you!

[MTCD Software Development] wanze2001:
Actually I have to say that I am absolutely disappointed in Rome.

Today I drove 240km from home to Kassel. After 90km my navigation had a deviation of about 30km which was always behind me. So I can not use it.

Then the autostart of apps is not reliable from the hot start i.e. PCRadio, Blitzer.de and Amiko App.

I am also missing a white wallpaper because of my display which resolution it should have then I put this on.
[MTCD Software Development] ELCouz:
Use Android Auto with HUR and in settings disable shared GPS (this will use your phone GPS much better) Google Maps is running perfectly like this. No deviation or odd movement since it's using the phone GPS instead.
[MTCD Software Development] wanze2001:
What is HUR?

I was on Malaysk before because I only had problems with the cold start, this took up to 4-5 minutes.

Otherwise it worked well. But it cannot be that the GPS cannot be used. For me this is a clear bug and I am probably not an isolated case
[MTCD Software Development] ELCouz:
HeadUnit Reloaded ... an app (also developed on XDA) that enable Android Auto integration for the Chinese headunits.

I had GPS glitch similar to yours with GMaps running with Oreo 8. Now since I'm using AA for more than a year it kind solved the problem itself by using AA with the Phone GPS.

HUR Link -->https://xdaforums.com/general/paid-software/android-4-1-headunit-reloaded-android-t3432348
[MTCD Software Development] shouk_1987:
I use it all the time for any navigation

Much more faster and relaible than gmaps on the headnit itself

I am used on android auto ? as I use it in another car as it has stock AA headunit ( not an android unit )
[MTCD Software Development] ferap:
I changed my mobile from android to iPhone, how can I make the assistant to call? Do I need to continue using google assistant or do I need to install something like Siri?
[MTCD Software Development] Ati_gangster:
You use your Google account with your HU and sync contacts with Google contacts.
[MTCD Software Development] ferap:
Yes but when I tell the assistant to dial, it doesn’t.
[MTCD Software Development] ELCouz:
iPhone integration isn't the best with android. Like trying to get Android Auto on iPhone good luck with that!

iOS is heavily locked down for third party apps restricting more and more what it can do with contacts/dialing. I'm not surprised if bluetooth interaction is locked down if ain't Siri/Carplay compatible on the headunit.
[MTCD Software Development] asparker:
Hi!

Did you ever resolve this?

I have a similar (though not identical) issue, and I've come up with a number of possible causes but I am not able to figure out exactly what the problem is. I have a PX5 MTCE head unit that came with Android 8 factory installed. I just upgraded to Android 9 with Hal9K's mod v4 but the Bluetooth isn't working on my device and I cannot see evidence that the HU has even recognized the BT module.

I'm aware of the known issues with the MD725 type 2, and my Bluetooth module is listed as MD725 in settings, but when I run the terminal command to identify the type, it comes back as '1'.

If anyone has any clues, I would really appreciate it.

Maybe my BT module is not really MD725 type 1? Is there another way to determine more accurately?

I need to update a driver.

I need to replace the Bluetooth module. This would be ok except the BT modules I see linked to on Aliexpress are also MD725 units and may not actually solve my problem if it's a driver or some setting.
[MTCD Software Development] BarkyJ:
Only after a cold start I have this problem. If I shut down or restart the unit, all radio stations are lost. However if I just turn off the car and start it the next day, it is a warm start and all the radio stations are remembered.

I wish it was possible to have it save the radio stations after a cold start.
[MTCD Software Development] KhangTran476:
Does PX6 support AHD Reverse Camera setting? That's make output of camera 1080p(1920x1080) with 25/30fps.
[MTCD Software Development] MediaTerraneo:
It's the same for me. After a cold restart or reset, ALL the radio SETTINGS are lost. In particoular:

- radio stations memory lost

- "AF" is turned on (so I need every time to turn it off, as it has never worked properly on any of my the ROMs)
[MTCD Software Development] baster72:
Hi

Go to settings/Car/factory settings (password 126)/other and setup DEFAULT POWER STATUS to remember previous status Or remember at last
[MTCD Software Development] Bugscze:
Exactly! GPS is broken in v4! I have HU in car primarily for navigation and it's unusable. I tried every setting in Advanced GPS settings, nothing helps. It's working in v3 so it's not hardware problem! My car has GPS anternna in front window.
[MTCD Software Development] iMattmax:
I don't know what you have with the gps. In my HU (Max-6) with Hal9k everything is fine.
[MTCD Software Development] MediaTerraneo:
Hi, it seems a different matter. We are speaking of a RADIO settings loose after a cold start or reset, we are speaking of the radio status (that is the FM AM app), not speaking of memory of the power staus of the HU. Thanks

That's right, GPS works for me on a Dasaita MAX6 headunit too.

As someone else suggested, you can use HeadUnit Reloaded. It can take a little mucking around to get working, but there is plenty of support available on the forum. It's available for download on the Play Store. Good Luck!
[MTCD Software Development] Lince:
I will not go into banal discussions that also contribute nothing to the thread. I do not doubt that among all the messages you have, in some of them you are efficient and have really helped, I do not say no, but every time I read a message from you, it is to criticize or reproach. I am a forum administrator and participated in many others, always helping in everything I can and even confusing people, I do not reproach them, I try to guide them and indicate that they should or how they should do it. For forums you have little to teach me and to participate in them either. In this one he did not participate anymore because the language conditions me a lot, I do not like the translator, that is one of the reasons why, possibly being older than you, I do not have so many messages, but as I said before, I am not going to enter into controversies that only hinder the good walk of a thread that has been created to precisely expose doubts and whoever wants, knows and can, help others as well as being helped.

That said, I hope you understand that the thread is for that and not to reproach others, not everyone is as smart as you and if you want to moderate, talk to the administrator and make you a moderator. If you have something else to tell me, tell me privately that I will answer you in the same way, so we leave the thread for things that refer to this ROM and not to divert and troll the thread.

Greetings.

[MTCD Software Development] jonlonglegs:
Solved my own problem, so leaving the solution here for anyone else that might have this problem in the future.

I noticed that the headphones icon was displayed on the Status Bar at the top, turns out that this is a likely indicator that your head unit thinks an audio output other than your car's speakers is connected. In my case, my head unit has a cable connected in the back that connects to the car's factory USB port. The head unit, with android 9, thinks that a USB audio output device is connected to this usb port, even though no USB device is connected. Simply unplugging this cable from the head unit solved the problem, and the device no longer thinks that USB audio device is connected.

Note: I noticed there was some USB audio setting in the Developer Options menu, but changing this setting didn't help.

This physical solution will have to fix the problem for now, but the root problem might be something with the Android 9 ROM itself as I didn't have this problem with mod v3, but that just probably means its a problem with the stock image that was used, and not Hal9k's fault. :D

Hi [MENTION=5092263]Hal9k_[/MENTION]

I hope to find you well. I haven't seen posts from you for a long time.

Here is a summary of some issues from my side with Mod. 4.0.2 (I overcame other issued I spoke of in some previous posts).

1. With the default launcher, I changed the order of icons screens (I mean long press on empty space and then change of screens position), but after HU restart they go back to the previous location.

2. After a cold restart or reset, ALL the radio SETTINGS are lost. In particoular:

- radio stations memory lost

- "AF" is turned on

3. more, you have kindly provided a way to back-up from Android 8 and restore to Android 9.

What about a full config back-up of Mod. 4.0.2? Could that backup / restore system work for Mod. 4.0.2 ?

Thanks for your support or possible fixes in the next release, if any.

Thanks

Hi, [MENTION=472138]hal9k[/MENTION] I am also encountering some strange app behaviour since updating from v3 to v4. E. g. Maps Speed Limits was losing its permission for overlay from time to time. Now I found that this stopped after I re-enabled viper4android again. I disabled it some time ago and removed the driver from Magisk. After I re-installed it, Speed Limits is starting normally. I suspect that this is caused by the full backup from Android 8. Some apps seem to have problems with that. Additionally in Titanium Backup a lot of apps are shown as frozen and I can't remove unneeded system apps anymore.

So long,

Sebastian

I've installed Hal9k Mod V4.02 on my Xtrons device (IB79AA3). My problem is, that media playback is not started after resuming from sleep mode.

I'm using poweramp with two 128gb USB sticks for mp3. I enabled poweramp for not closing the app in sleep mode (Mod settings), also i choose autoplay on app opening and wait for external storage in poweramp settings.

When the device went into sleep mode and I turn on the ignition, poweramp opens. The chosen track is the last it palyed before sleep. But it doesn't start playing, even after a short waiting time for usb to mount (60s).

Also there is no album cover shown in the player overlay. If I start the track manually, the track starts playing, BUT from the beginning. It doesn't matter if I pause the track before leaving the car or not - the behaviour is the same.

Maybe somebody faced the same problem and got a solution.

Thank you and have a nice weekend!

Problems with USB after waking up from sleep

Hello, everyone,

since I have updated to Hal9k 4.02 there are unfortunately problems with USB devices. As soon as the radio goes into sleep mode, my USB stick (ethernet adapter) loses power and thus the connection. As soon as it wakes up again, the USB adapter is not available. It is necessary to restart the whole radio. Does anyone have an idea what you can do? The mod-settings do not provide any help. With Android 8.0 there were no problems.

Greetings,

Michael
