Will send them a message. It is a seicane in case that helps.
[MTCD Software Development] Hydronaut:
Seller had no idea. Researched the forums, built and OTG cable, pulled the SOM and reflashed via MASKROM and it works perfect. Only could find an android 10 image file and do not seem to see any custom roms. Any way to downgrade back to 9?
[MTCD Software Development] eddom1971:

Issue still present in 4.2.1. OBD2 adapters connect, but does not send/receive info. Last working version. 4.1.0. Any solution?
[MTCD Software Development] Cavalier Condorelli:
look also at my previous post just before this one. In my case I deleted all bluetooth devices, then re-paired the OBD2 dongle, it took several attempts to get it paired, then it worked again. This was my experience.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Mine experience too with MD725 BT. Have to persevere and that is on the previous version of HAL/Android 8.

Consider a USB ODBLink SX.
[MTCD Software Development] Kazliux:
Thanks for heads-up. I will check this and come back with results.
[MTCD Software Development] RoninDusette:
Hey. I purchased the OTA update for this and so far have not received an access code for it. How long does it usually take for the code to come to my email account?
[MTCD Software Development] verszipo:
What

Do you have any proof ?

I'm asking cause i have used this ROM for at least 2-2.5 years, my gmail account is connected and i never saw anything suspicious on my account.

Maybe you have a password that's easy to guess/brute force ? or you did something else ? maybe you installed some apps from the PlayStore ?

Btw, it's not a bad idea to activate in playstore the need for a password/confirmation on each purchase, so that nobody can "by mistake" do a purchase.
[MTCD Software Development] geoalexus:
No problem here, after 1 year with this rom, also google account and card data with no problem. Also i have extra protection, no purchasing without confirmation on my phone.
[MTCD Software Development] Moldeb:
No problem here and I've been using it for more than a year now. I guess you have a different problem.
[MTCD Software Development] ric69:
I reported post, I'm using Hal9k rom since years and of course there's no possibility to be hacked by flashing his work.

You should check your device because as ALL AUTORADIO DEVICES (even stock) , there's no security (pincode at boot or pattern code) but there's no possibility to get your bank codes ... truth is out there
[MTCD Software Development] berlo:
Hi, I got a post Daisata PX6 with a hal9k rom.

(android 9, mod v4.1.0, MTCE_HA_V3.45_1)

Yesterday I had it running on my desktop, it seemed to have had a Magisk update.

Today, impossible to activate the wifi, even after a factory reset.

It could be a bug or I damaged the post, but I don't really see why?
[MTCD Software Development] Silver_:
Does anyone know how to assign any program to a wheel button? For example, I would like to assign a button that I use for the "microphone" (in order to open the assistant Google) and replace it to open the MtCDialer directly. Is this possible?

PD: at least to solved temporaly the actual problem with the hands free in the newest google assistant.
[MTCD Software Development] xaimen:
Someone knows why radarandroid does not update with ethernet conection but It is works with wifi????🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
[MTCD Software Development] Moldeb:
Some apps only use Wi-Fi and ignore LAN. I know this from my TV box (which I can configure to emulate Wi-Fi from LAN so that such apps will work). Check with app developer...
[MTCD Software Development] berlo:
For my wifi problem, I tried MCU updates 3.40 > 3.57 > 3.60 > 3.62 > 3.71d and re-installed the Hal9k Rom (Hal9k_Mod_4.0_MTCD_MTCE_PX6) without success.

I encountered the same symptoms as on this thread (https://xdaforums.com/t/solved-i-cant-turn-on-my-wi-fi-need-help.3870381/), the wifi not wanting to turn on after a complete re-initialization.

I'm hesitant to put a stock rom. Can I flash a stock rom over the Hal9k rom, (PX6 HA2_rk3399_9.0_ota(20200521, or even android 10 HA3_rk3399_10.0_ota(20210111)?

edit : it's ok for the stock rom android 9, not for the android 10 (aborted in recovery)

edit 2 : it's a bug with USB!

By unplugging the double usb harness and rebooting, THE WIFI COME BACK !
[MTCD Software Development] xaimen:
Thanks. Following your indications I have found the next emulator:

Fake Wifi Connection | Xposed Module Repository

repo.xposed.info

But I am afraid to install it.
[MTCD Software Development] Moldeb:
I think it makes more sense to contact the developer of the WiFi only app, he should allow LAN also. Small update...
[MTCD Software Development] Skwara0:
@Hal9k_ I would like to report a possible bug with the default launcher.

There is a "Route" widget for Google Maps. It's goal is to save a route that will be automatically opened in Google Maps upon clicking the widget. In the default launcher, this widget only opens the Google Maps app without activating any route. It works correctly on other launcher. Do you think there is a chance for a fix? I think it would be a great feature for Google Maps users to have a launcher page with most used destinations that could be activated with a single click.

Thank you for all your efforts for making this mod.
[MTCD Software Development] catelusii:
Yes, this is the proof:

All three aps are from a russian developer, like this ROM developer.

I have 44 y.o. and no children. So, I never subscribed to this games. In fact, I do not like games.
[MTCD Software Development] matrixx1:
Dear All, I have a question. If I enable "Restart applications that worked before sleep" the headunit will not only restart the media apps I set up in the list, but the last used Navi app as well which I don't want. I would Ike to only restart the media apps without starting Waze on the radio instantly after wake-up. Would this be possible?
[MTCD Software Development] verszipo:
Strange, as others posted, I and the others that posted didn't see any kind of issues with our google accounts using this rom.

You should check your order history on the Play Store and see when was the subscription activated and if it shows what device activated the subscription.

You can access the purchase history on a PC at the following URL : https://play.google.com/store/account/orderhistory

The only things i can think of is that maybe you installed a rogue App by mistake or that you've installed this mod from a different source, not the download links on the first post.

Also, you should try and contact Goole since the price on those apps is huge and it's very obvious that those are just scam apps. Maybe they can return your money.
[MTCD Software Development] Ati_gangster:
Go to

Settings - Car - Navigation settings

Remove the tick for start the Navi App after each start.
[MTCD Software Development] matrixx1:
Hi, that's the issue I did not tick the Navi app in the list. I know I can disable the whole feature but I would Ike it to start only the media players which are checked in the list, nothing more.

I want to use Agama Launcher, how to properly install it? When the radio turns on, there's always stock launcher first then Agama is loading. I want to use Agama without that loading.
[MTCD Software Development] setio01:
Hi all,

I have installed successfully the Hall 4.0.0 via the mod app and I would like to install the last version 4.2.1 I have two doubts that I would appreciate if you could help me.

1) do I need to pay again to get the OTA code or Can I download from somewhere?

2) in case I can download, where? And do I need to install each version one after the other or just the last one?

Regards,

Paco
[MTCD Software Development] pakoner:
if you have already paid for OTAs, you know very well that you have received a unique code.

Enter this code and you will have the updates (one at a time)
[MTCD Software Development] fastphilou:
Hello @ all

I want to thank Hal9K here for its wonderful work for this version, after having been with v3 for a long time, here I am in v4.

The Mod Installer Pro 2 is awesome and easy to use :)

Thank you for your excellent work
[MTCD Software Development] csabex:
If i have rear and front camera it is possible with this ROM to see both of the pictures in a split screen mode, or a sw switch exists somewhere in the top or bottom of the display? For now i have only the rear installed, the front is still in transit. The power is connected to the HU directly, not to the reverse light.
[MTCD Software Development] ItsSunnyB:
can i install this even if im on an android 10 OS?
[MTCD Software Development] marjanoos:
@Hal9k_ can I get any answer? Seems like you are the only person who knows the answer here.
[MTCD Software Development] marjanoos:
Yes, you can but you need to buy ModInstaller if you want to do it easy way.
[MTCD Software Development] ItsSunnyB:
where can i purchase mod installer and if you have any info on the processes. Thank you

I returned to hal9k rom from a10 and kodi fc with this rom at a10 works i don't see anybody complaining about this but maybe someone can help me to fix this problem? Try different versions and clear data and cache nothing seems to work. The rom is great though
[MTCD Software Development] T3ch_@advanced:
Thank you so much for sharing this. Without knowing it, you just helped me to fix a major problem!
[MTCD Software Development] thefunkygibbon:
anyone got any idea from hak9k if and when his android 10 based rom is going to be released? its been 6 months now since he has replied on this forum and also when Malaysk's 10 based rom was released. Sick of stock rom and i'm not getting on with that rom very well either.
[MTCD Software Development] marjanoos:
Funny thing, he's been online recently and even didn't wrote any reply to any question.

I appreciate his work but people there are looking for support and there isn't any official support. I could understand that if the rom was free but we have payed (almost everybody I believe) for both ModInstaller and ROM. This shouldn't happen.

Privately, I'm totally disappointed.
[MTCD Software Development] Fatmonk8:
Does anyone know how to get google assistant to make a call? It always says app not installed. I assume it's because you can't set a dialer.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Thought about taking action and creating your own ROM or Mods.

I thought Xda was about development and working together, not consumption.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Except it's not private, you've shared your frustration by posting here.

Of course there isn't any "official support"

Think about it; complainers here gave up using and contributing to free developed methods for a quick fix.

You all come/join fast to get what you want and leave just as fast when you have what you want.

So many got on the paid bandwagon for what. Instead, we could have put efforts into developing and lobbying the two paid developers to share their expertise.

The two paid developers have contributed ZERO to the development and community contribution.

They have both taken others work (which was often developed openly in these forums - see MTCB posts) "stitched together", and then argued about who stole what (see 4pda) and taken your cash/reward. Who are the fools.

Id say time to start community development here and distancing from these closed operators if you want to see future development for our toys.
[MTCD Software Development] marjanoos:
What's your point? It's hard to understand. What developers are you talking about? Hal9k and Malaysk?

I'm not a developer neither many XDA users are developers. I'm more "tester". I won't create anything because I don't know how. XDA is the only popular english place when I can try unofficial software. And I've liked to play with my mobiles. Now I'm also the car user and there's no better place to find better than stock fw.
[MTCD Software Development] basstek1:
is it possible to read text messages from the phone so that the radio can display it?
[MTCD Software Development] verszipo:
You could use something similar to "Bridge" which sends all notifications from 1 Android device to another : https://xdaforums.com/t/bridge-mirror-notifications-android-web.3867067/

But of course, you have to be warry of apps that have access to all your notifications, you never know what they do with those. You really need to trust the application and the author of the app.
[MTCD Software Development] Fatmonk8:
I am also looking at how to do this
[MTCD Software Development] bettuccio:
you can try with "mtcdTools" It is used to map the keys to do anything. I've used it on both Android 6 and Android 8, now I don't know if it still works with Android 9. I'll probably try to do it these days.

puoi provare con "mtcdTools" È usato per mappare i tasti per fare qualsiasi cosa. L'ho usato sia su Android 6 che su Android 8, ora non so se funziona ancora con Android 9. Probabilmente proverò a farlo in questi giorni.
[MTCD Software Development] bettuccio:
I have 2 questions: I state that I too have installed version 4 of Hal9k. Have any of you installed the exposed framework of the tools? I wish I could do it from Magisk, is it possible? The other question: can I update Magisk directly from its page or should I keep it that way forever?

Ho 2 domande: premetto che anch'io ho installato la versione 4 di Hal9k. Qualcuno di voi ha installato il framework esposto degli strumenti? Vorrei poterlo fare da Magisk, è possibile? L'altra domanda: posso aggiornare Magisk direttamente dalla sua pagina o devo tenerlo così per sempre?

I have a Android 9.0 px5 MCE Pumpkin HU wich is designed for Volkswagen.

So HU buttons backlight turn of and on according with car light, steering wheel buttons are functional for HU, some Hu informations are diplayed on little Led screen on dashboard, trunk and open Doors are showed on HU..

Will these feature will remain if flashing this Rom ?
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Maybe, maybe not. Without trying, you might not find out.

With an OTG backup of the original, all your apps, data, configuration is backed up, so what's to lose.
[MTCD Software Development] thejihell:
Thanks pal.

Well, would have prefered to know before.

But if it's not possible then can u tell me how to Backup the actual Rom with all data and apps ?

In fact I just upgraded from 8 to Android 9. Il I reflash the 9 update.zip it will restore the same isnt it ?

See my OTG thread - complete backup. Nothing else compares.

[MTCD Software Development] ItsSunnyB:
Does this ROM come with reverser camera settings to change contrast brightness resolutions etc.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:

What do you do when you lost your access code? Any way to get it back?
[MTCD Software Development] cleverdicky:
Hello I too would like this. But in truth nobody really knows how. Google has fixed it so it cant be done except using its own auto app. Even good developers have to work within all the google spyware junk like play services / store.

There are a few apps that can do this using the cloud and network data but not simply and directly via bluetooth or wifi the way a smart watch does it.

Im now using a huawei phone to evade google control and sideload my own trusted apps.

Much faster, smoother and no ads or other spyware.

Just waiting on rumours of a huawei alternative to google auto. Should be worth the wait 👍

Hi Hal9k,

I'm using your mod in Version 4.2.1 with great satisfaction on my px5 unit, Android 9.

I've also startet with tasker to get more out of the head unit.

I've observed the same issue as explained in this thread here https://xdaforums.com/t/with-tasker-brightness-not-adjustable.3771309/.

Aim was to create a profile in tasker to adjust screen brightness with condition "gps fix lost" e.g. when entering a tunnel with the car and then restoring brightness when gps fix is gained. This is also handy in car parking lot.

However somehow tasker does not adjust brightness at all, e.g. with time trigger or else tested on its own.

Can someone check this behavior on a second unit?
[MTCD Software Development] Sdpuk2020:
Does anyone know the correct canbus setting for peugeot 207?

any advice would be amazing

Last month we tested some free apps, root, installation etc.

Also many translations improvements.

The mod will based on the latest hct2 Version with Hct7 Launcher.

Hello Hal9k,

I'm a paying subscriber to the Hal9k updates (just saying :-)).

I've got a question regarding MTCD/E app development:

Is there a way to catch the "power off" function (pressing the volume button)? Maybe a broadcast intent or something?

My app curiously isn't force-stopped so the OnDestroy call never happens. My app needs it though ...

Thanks in advance,

JFDee
[MTCD Software Development] JFDee:
Never mind, I found it, with some reverse engineering:

There is a broadcast intent with action "com.microntek.bootcheck" and in there is a StringExtra with name "class" and the value "poweroff" when the button is pressed.

Very handy!
