I have the paid version of NavRadio+ on my Xtrons unit, and it's a vast improvement! Just love the logos, the better layout, backup/restore, more presets, etc. Thanks for making this!

I do have a suggestion though...

I travel a lot through the entire Netherlands, which causes me to have a lot of AF issues. Unfortunately, the radio chip in the typical PX5 unit only has a single tuner, so it'll try switching to a stronger alternative frequency whenever it drops below 30dB (configurable). So it will drop out. Better radio chips just switch if the other frequency yields a better signal (as measured by the dual tuner). Also: if I want to switch to QMusic, but the previous frequency is out of reach, AF will not work. It seems that's because I think it always uses the AFs in the current RDS signal instead of any stored AFs.

I therefore have a feature request: a poor man's AF... I would love it if NavRadio would cycle through the stored alternative frequencies with a press on the station button. So if I listen to QMusic but want to try a different frequency, i would just press the QMusic preset button, and it'll switch to the next frequency stored with that preset in NavRadio. But if I am listening to Radio1, and press QMusic, it should use the last known good frequency.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Uhm... We are already almo there...

Double clicking on the station button it switch to the next saved AF frequency.

You can do the same also sliding up or down in the middle of the screen.

Once you have switched to a new freq it remain set until a new freq is found or switched.

This mean that when switch to radio1 and then you go back to qmusic it will use its last used freq.

Is this the way you want it?

Or you'd like to have one default/stronger freq to return after you change station?

If that's the case i'm not sure it will be a good solution during travels.

Let me know...;)
[MTCD Software Development] MiS_NL:
Oh dear, never thought of double clicking the station button. But now that I know, I especially like the sliding up/down in the screen, because I don't need to take my eyes off the road. Even happier with NavRadio+ now!!!
[MTCD Software Development] Bazsa79:
Hi, where can this be set?

AF (Alternative Frequencies) handling: (Doubleclick to switch between stored AF)

AF service allows the radio tuner to tune in to an alternative frequency when the signal becomes too weak. The minimum level signal can be set in factory settings (Auto Search Stop) and has been found

that around 30 db is the best choice.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
What the dB setting? in Factory Settings (password 126)
[MTCD Software Development] Josoft:
What would be great is DAB support !
[MTCD Software Development] hallotri:
Hi, will NavRadio ever work with the MCU G6-TS? I would also give a small extra donation if the chip would work with NavRadio.
[MTCD Software Development] Costalero:
Hello. Playing with the Navradio controls I activated an option that makes a box appear in the upper right that has no function. How can I disable the box? Thanks.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
You must speak English in this forum.

To remove that thing you have to disable the temperature in interface options.
[MTCD Software Development] byradzio:
Hi,

KoTiX2, are you able to send broadcasts intents from Your app? I would like to gather current station name, current frequency and RDS data.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
They are already sent as metadata using mediasession
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:

[MTCD Software Development] meidland:
Please can you do it for 8227 headunits? We are lot of people with that model. Please
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I tried but without success.

It's not possible for my knowledge...
[MTCD Software Development] meidland:
Do you think you can try with the native radio.apk which comes in these models?
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
The native apk is always needed to understand how to port the app to other models and indeed that's what I used to do my tries with your unit model.

Trust me, i did all my best trying to port the app to MTK units. ;)
[MTCD Software Development] meidland:
Do you know any windows App to modify Apks?
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
NavRadio+ version 2.70 is coming out:

- New method for USA and liveRDS users to join RDS strings and display them in RDS text section.

Station name or frequency are displayed in the main text field.

- Various small fixes.
[MTCD Software Development] AdekP:
From myself I will write that this function works great. Thank you for the idea and its implementation!
[MTCD Software Development] Tobyb2017:
Hello

Is it possible to make for Junsun v1 pro?Your app is great.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I guess V1 pro is an MTK based unit. I tried to port the app to it for a few months already but without success. I don't know I'll ever succeed to do it.
[MTCD Software Development] Tobyb2017:
Yes MTK based.Yunsun radio app is not good.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
NavRadio version 2.71 is coming to PlayStore:

- Better check for duplicated strings in liveRDS texts

- Fixed frequency steps and min/max for Topway units

- Fixed crash on MTC for logos assignement

I recommend to REMOVE version 2.70 a.s.ap. to avoid crash during automatic assignment of the logos
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Thank you. I thought it was related to the hal9k version I was using.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Hello, I have news. My phone is Oppo A9 2020 Android 11 ColorOS 11. Navradio+ is installed on my phone. I installed it so I'll know when the update comes. With the new update, the virus was detected and the phone manager deleted it. 😁
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Sometimes I wish I know how to make a virus ;)
[MTCD Software Development] Timpuli:
Couple of proposals for future development, regarding of Clock and Temperature display

1. If both, clock and temperature is shown at same time, these are displayed next to each other in top right corner. This is not very clear, hard to differentiate numbers from each other.

Would it be possible to add selection where user can select where each of data is displayed, for example: Clock is shown in top left corner and Temperature is shown in top right corner? This would be awesome (even your app is awesome already!)

2. More customization options for Clock and Temperature, please? E.g. adjustable color selection under "Themes"..?
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I'll see what I can do about these requests but right now I'd like to finish adding the media browser service so to make NavRadio working correctly with Vivid launcher.

This will cause big changes in audio focus handling so it will takes a lot of time for testings and for fixing new bugs.

Honestly i don't know when I'll find time to add new stuff.

;)
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Hello. I'm using it with hal9k 7.1.2 mod. The device is px3 mtcd. It keeps kicking me out of the program. There was a problem with the last update. I deleted and reinstalled but it still crashes. I think there is a problem
[MTCD Software Development] GnFgr:
My problem with last two updates is that after wake from sleep usually the program is not working. If i press the program to open it starts playing from normal list not favourites.

Hal9k 5.0.1
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I have a PX3 with hal rom too and it's working fine here.

Be sure you have installed from playstore version 2.72 and be sure you have disable dall those hal mod settings that are well known to make navradio crash.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Just tested on my px5 with Hal9k 5.1.0 and and NavRadio start with FAV list if it was the last used before closing it.

I don't see any problem with it.

I don't know yet about sleep mode, i'll check it as soon as i can.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
What do I need to activate in hal9k mod settings? I didn't make any settings related to navradio+ in any of them. I will upload it again today. I write the result
[MTCD Software Development] GnFgr:
The thing about fav list only happens when navradio does not autostart after wake from sleep.

If i power cycle or manually kill navradio and start it it will start at fav mode.

By the way. What are the correct steps to do with hal9k so that navradio, autostarts from sleep everytime?

I also use fcc launcher.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Good. Don't set anything about NavRadio
[MTCD Software Development] GnFgr:
Let me explain a bit more in case someone can help.

Having a px6 with hal9k

Fcc launcher.

Navradio+

Hal9k setting for default fm radio player as navradio+

In factory settings the internal radio is at NO

If i set at hal9k to not autostart navradio+ choose no more settings then and go to navradio+ settings and choose autostart then

It does autostart after boot but not after sleep.

If i choose at hal9k to autostart navradio after sleep it does usually autostart it after sleep but not always. When it does not start if i press on fcc widget to start it usually i get ablow hissing sound and i have to press pause a couple of times to make it start.

Sometimes it starts and stops after 2 or 3 seconds.

Using the next station widget button or previous starts it usually normally.

If i do not choose from hal9k to autostart it after sleep and use the fcc launcher to autostart the last playing player then

It usually autostarts and sometimes it does not. Again most successful start comes from previous or next station widget button.

Usually the problems start after short time sleep (1 minute to a couple of hours). If the sleep is more than 8 to 9 hours the radio usually starts playing.

I am trying to find a solution for a very long time now and i have try a lot of settings alone or even all together. Even reinstall the rom or change launchers.

Damn sleep.

If someone has any solution on what settings and from where (hal9k?, Fcc?, Navradio?) Works from keep navradio playing when return from sleep it would be great.

Keeps fingers crossed.

I really find navradio really great and a toolbthat give me the experience that i would expect from an fm radio player ad i wanted.

Only drawback is the restart plaing after sleep.

Anyway thanks to the dev for this tool.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Hi. I deleted and reinstalled today. I specifically checked the hal9k mod settings. Then it worked normally. But it gave 3 errors. Firstly, when the program is running in the background and the radio channels are changed one after the other, the program gives a shutdown warning and has to close. (wheeler commander) Secondly, when the program is closed, it continues to run in the background. I even opened the Spotify program. She continues to work with him. I had to turn the multimedia off and on. In factory settings, the radio option is turned off. Thirdly, while loading the Head Radio logo in the Turkey logo file, it is kicked out of the program. It may be a problematic file. I thought these problems might be because of agama car launcher. I uninstalled Agama car launcher. But with the other original launcher the same problems happened.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Please makes some videos of the problems. I will try to reproduce them on my unit but better if i look them with my eyes...

Thx.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Sure, thanks
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Ok i did some tests:

1. no FCC installed. Only set the hal9k modsetting app like this:

NavRadio start everytime after sleep but not after boot. (Even if i set it to start in NavRadio and in Hal mod).

Of course NavRadio must be running before going into sleep mode.

2. I installed FCC from playstore and NavRadio stopped starting after sleep.

I had to set FCC autostart options like this:

It started again after sleep but still not after boot.

Then if I play a bit with the play/pause button in FCC it start messing around with audio focus gain/loose causing Navradio to play/mute a couple of times... not a nice behavioue at all.

This si becaus eof the way FCC handle the players and becaus eNavradio right now is not a real music player.

Honestly i won't spend much time on this right now because everything will change again when i'll add the media browser service to make NavRadio work as a player.

When that will be ready i'll have to work with speedfire to make NavRadio working correctly again.

So for now please just be patience some more... ;)
[MTCD Software Development] GnFgr:
No problem at all with waiting.

Not at all.

After all my radio is working if i just press next or previous so not that a big deal.

Anyway thanks for just trying and replying, you know that shows a lot for a dev.

Keep on man and thanks.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I found that a crash when going to background is caused by the notification popup.

Please try to disable the notification toast in NavRadio settings/notification (the very first top setting in that section) and tell me if it fix it for you.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
I will try what you said tomorrow. I work at the hospital today. I'll give the necessary information tomorrow. Thank you for your attention
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Hi, I tried the way you said today. I turned off the first setting in the notifications section of the program settings. The problem of kicking from the program and continuing in the background is gone. It worked very stable. God bless your hands.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Good, at least now I know where to look at.

I hope to find a solution, otherwise I'll remove those notifications for Android 7
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Yes, turning off the above setting fixed the problems. I turned it off in the setting below. But this time, radio information did not appear in agama launcher. It went out when I opened it again. Keep those settings
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I will remove only the top one.

The boots one are for metadatas for agama and other launchers.

I will not remove the metadata, just the popup notification.

New NavRadio+ version 2.73 on PlayStore:

- Fixed crash caused by bad urls of Logo packages

- Fixed crash on android 7 caused by popup notifications

- Fixed AF,TA, REG settings wrongly reset on startup on TS10
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
Hello. I tried the new version. Issues resolved for Android 7. When adding only Manual logo, some of the logos are not visible. I was able to transfer the logo file to the gps cd card of the device and open it that way. All of the logos have appeared. But even though I select and save, the logo is not active. There is such a small problem. Other than that it works fine and hassle free. Thank you

hi

When installing a free app, the steering wheel button works fine

But when you install the paid app, the steering wheel buttons stop working

My car is vw jetta 2015

Knowing the latest program ts10 1.2 20221114
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
If your unit don't have canbus, you have to set the steering wheels keys in NavRadio settings/keys.

Tipically the numbers are 19 and 21 for next/Prev buttons.

In the full version i had to remove them because cause issues with canbus units.
[MTCD Software Development] vorol:
RDS not working

after update
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
What kind of unit do you have?

What of rds don't work? Please be more specific or post a video.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Your logos must be in png format, 255*255pixel max

Put them in RadioLogos folder in internal sdcard
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Another small quick update is coming soon v2.74:

- Fixed Logos links for Dutch language

- Added Mexico Logos to USA region
[MTCD Software Development] YPR111:
In the full version, the steering wheel control keys no longer work, knowing that there is no difference between removing the CANbus or removing the CANbus. With a new update, the numbers 19-21 appear with me, what is the solution

Knowing that the free version the buttons work well

[MTCD Software Development] timido64:
Good morning,

@kotix, kindly asking for help for a user on "Androidiani", the request is as follows:

Thanks dear.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
The PlayStore cannot detect the MCU type of these Chinese units, so why it could say that it's compatible.

Only the app can determine if it's compatible or not.

If it says that it's not, means it doesn't work and there is nothing he can do about it.

Generally speaking, NavRadio doesn't work on any MTK based unit right now. I don't know if I'll make it work in the future...
[MTCD Software Development] timido64:
That's right @KoTiX2 we have our friend @bluemask69 who chimed in and clarified the matter.

Thank you very much my friend...
[MTCD Software Development] Alex3336:
hello, this application looks great but unfortunately not compatible with my system 😔 I will follow the evolution of your great work hoping to be compatible one day. happy new year

Hi,

So I am running hal9k 5.2 on a vanku px6 and mtce-ht 3.60. I installed navradio+ and on first run its fine, but when I go back to home and run another app (waze for example), when I try to open the app again, it crashes immediately (but the radio station playing persists).

Does anyone have any idea what could be happening? I tried to add the exclusion in mod settings, but maybe I didn't do it right?

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Don

Don't set NavRadio in none of modsettings options.

Specially the one that is for "players that cannot work together".
[MTCD Software Development] jateed:
Thank you. I will try that and let you know my results.

please be sure you are running version 2.75
[MTCD Software Development] Ujua:
Hello, I have checked and I have version 2.75, I don't know if it is a problem with some other app and it is related to the rom, since before updating hal9k this did not happen, but the message keeps coming out.

Auto scan, not vorking. Can I give me old version? Can I try
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Does the normal autoscan and manual search work?

Which options do you enable in autoseek?

I tested autoscan, autoseek, autoseek with logos and names, manual scan: i never had crash.

Please post a video of the problem...
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
I reset the device to factory settings. Maybe that's why. But other programs have no problems.
[MTCD Software Development] tebukan:
When I install the program for the first time, when I make an automatic search, it exits the program. It doesn't do an automatic search, it continues to search when you select the logo files and make an automatic search. After a while, exit the program or wait option appears. It continues when you say wait. That's how I managed to install the radios.You can see video
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
I was able to reproduce the problem :)

The issue started since version 2.22 and was always there (only on px3 of course) and it happen only at startup of the app.
