With the Eonon harness there is no Quadlock at harness' end where it connects to the radio. There is only the black connector that connects to the radio and the antenna cable. Haven't found any info if some of the wires for the black radio connector are i-bus line's that could connect to. Obviusly I could wire the i-bus line from the trunk, but would not want to strip all the door sill etc again.

@blue_racer Thanks, I already managed to find the correct setting with a help of an another user.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Well, this was not a recommended elongation :-(

To connect the Resler Module/Resler Interface please:

- use powersupply from elongation (battery and ground - not only ignition!)

- use I-BUS wire from old MID or bordmonitor plug [do not use power supply from there - this may cause troubles!)

I reinstalled the latest apk this afternoon. The wiper issue is no longer an issue. Why? Who the hell knows! Anyway, I uninstalled it and reinstalled and the wiper issue seems to be a mystery. I ran TIS/DIS and ran diagnostics on the wiper stalks and ZKE and found no DTC's. Another mystery cleared but not solved.

My new issue is simply a setting issue I think. I have what I believe are the correct tick boxes ticked to activate PDC. However the app doesn't always go to the PDC screen when in reverse or when the PDC button is pressed. When it fails, switching off the car, opening the door, closing the door and locking the car followed by the reverse cures it. Is this a setting issue?

A suggestion if I may. There is a minor omission for Low OBC owners. High OBC gets a wide setting with the car image in the middle. Why not Low OBC?

Another question, whilst I am here. I have never updated the Reisler adapter since buying it a good few years ago. Should I?

Many Thanks
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Hi, maybe there have only been a wrong telegram set and due the deinstall you've erased it.

For PDC: did you check both options: PDC screen switch AND switch to foreground - or PDC screen switch plus PDC popup?

For the design you may choose "high bc wide" too with low BC, just hide the values you may not get from low bc like consumption.

For the old black Resler interface: there is no update for it. Only the new orange Resler Module got a firmware which may be updated.
[Android Head-Units] Gunfiyld:
Thanks for the tip. It should be easy enough to connect just the 12V and ground wire to the radio's harness.
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
Hi All,

Today I was able to repeatedly demonstrate the wipers issues in my E39/M54/B30 LoBC. I reinstalled I-Bus a couple of days ago and was able to capture my previous observation on my phone. Any ideas? Thank you

@blue_racer

This is strange.
[Android Head-Units] biernus:
I have been using the Xtronx PX5 (PB7839BP) on my BMW e39 with great success for several years.

I have been using HAL9K mod v4.2.1 - Android 9 for a very long time

No problems - everything was working fine

Additionally, I use the IBUS app https://www.ibus-app.de with the 'old' Resler adapter

I wanted Android 10 and be up-to-date;)

Without any problems, of course, with the help of Modinstaler Pro 2 from Hal9K, the latest version of Android 10 with Mod v5.0.2 has arrived.

My requirements are very simple to operate:

(I like it when I start and I don't have to touch the radio at all - full automat mode ;-)

Start from sleep

Start IBUS app

Start Yanosik app (and go background, only floating icon on the screen)

Start Spotify app (play music, go background

Start Viper driver (tuning the sound)

go back to ibus app to main screen

While everything worked on Android 9, now I have 2 problems:

1) The problem with the 'autostart the apps'

It seems to me that everything is set up correctly and somehow sometimes only ibuss starts - other applications do not start automatically. Interestingly, both in MOD v5 and in the ibus itself, there are similar options for the start type of many subsequent applications. Should I bet on ibus or on it with MOD?

2) I also have a problem with voice notifications.

- While the music is playing via spotify, I can't hear notifications from goolge maps or from the Yanosik app (notifications about road problems).

- When I enter the Google maps options and play the test sound - you can hear that the sound is slightly quieter, but you cannot hear the voiceover with the message.

- When spotify is not playing (application is off or only music paused) - maps and yanosik work OK (you can hear voice notifications)

- When RADIO is playing - maps and yanosik also work OK

I am convinced that this is some software problem with the settings

Can someone knowledgeable give me a hint?

Is this a good category? or should I post to "[ROM] [PX5] [PX6] [PX30] [Q] [10] Hal9k Mod v5 for MTCx / HCTx head units with Android 10/9/8/6"

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
This would be best to post in the Hal9k v5 ROM thread, as these issues are related to the ROM and not the I-Bus App.

The only bit I could recommend for you is to check and make sure you have updated the ROM to v5.0.2, as I know it had addressed some issues. But you do have to pay a one time fee for the updates for the ROM.
[Android Head-Units] biernus:
Ok

I put the post in another threat.

I have pay version. I am 100% up to date.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Not sure I understand right: after update I-BUS app still start automatic every time or only sometimes?

Further if I-BUS app starts we may start 2 apps by I-BUS app.. but there are 3 in your list.

So my idea was to use iDrive Launcher https://idrive.ibus-app.de who was able to start more apps with it.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
@blue_racer Thank you for your reply to that question. Could you also please reply to post #126:

This was a strange problem he had reported to you all before, but now he is able to reliably repeat the issue.

Thanks for your help!
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
My online idea was to check the "central lock telegram" in central lock settings of I-BUS app. There are two types for E39, please try the other one.
[Android Head-Units] biernus:
Plase check my short film

New video by Patryk Biernacki

photos.app.goo.gl

and look @4sec - ibus won't start automat after sleep only "flash" ..... and nothing.

Watch the entire movie and you can see how I run the ibus app manually and then start up the next (2) applications (automatically)
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Looks as if I may see I-BUS app logo for a short moment at start, but seems not to start.

Which unit with which MCU are you using?

(How to check this?)

If you start the app manually, we start those 2 apps, as I guess!? Means this do work properly?
[Android Head-Units] biernus:
MCU MTCE_GS_V3.73

Unit: PB7839BP

And yes... If I start manually ibus app, it starts ok and opens the other 2 apps I want automatically. (like on the film)
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
I am clearly doing something wrong. Can someone please explain to me how to remove the track data. I do not want any reference to radio, poweramp, etc etc on i-BUS but try as I might I cannot shift it. I visited a mate this evening and sat and had a check of the settings. Everything I can see is off. Thanks
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Go to the I-BUS "Settings"; Then "On-board computer"; Then scroll down towards the bottom of the list and select "Track Info Position"; and select "Disable". The track info should be gone then.
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
I have made a quick recording of the issue and what I have done to try and solve it. Cheers

I-Bus
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
First, try setting right below the Track Info Position setting, Track Control Buttons and uncheck that one (if not already), and see what happens.

Have you tried disabling the track info when you're in the OBC Wide mode? Or any other mode?

And if that still doesn't work, what I would try next is to go make a backup of your I-BUS settings, then reset the app to defaults;

There is an option right under the Import/Export App settings: in I-BUS settings, General App Settings, Delete App Data, and this will keep your activation and wipe everything else. Or you could wipe the settings under the Android Settings, Apps, find and select the I-BUS app, go down to Storage & Cache, and then Clear Storage.

Then, with everything default in the app, try to disable the track info again and see if it works.

To remove those consumptions or any other values, press and hold on the title of what you are wanting to remove (OR relocate) and it will become free to move around, then a trash can icon will appear at the bottom right, and drag it over the top of the trash icon and release, and they will go away.

As for the Oil value and others not working, read THIS. I too don't have oil values and is likely due to a bad oil level sensor (oil temp sensor is built into the these).
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
@whitewolf8111 thank you for the guidance. I did exactly what you suggested and everything works now as expected until...............

Installed the new update today. If I go to settings OBC layout to choose BC Wide, instant crash. Every single time without fail. Rolled back to the previous, and that works. Reinstalled latest, deleted app data, same thing instant crash going to the setting for layout.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
New update??!! I must go check it out!

I will go test and see if I can reproduce your problem. You might want to upload a logcat for @blue_racer

*Update- yup, does the same thing for me, crash the second you press OBC layout.

Hopefully @blue_racer and the I-BUS app team are aware of this issue already, but I will reach out to him on Facebook too.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Sorry guys!!

Unfortunately, we found out that there is a bug in the update that none of us or the testers found.

Thank you for your feedback - the bugfix update is already being tested and is expected to be released later today.
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Thanks everyone for the suggestion of removing the can bus box. I removed mine today on my E46 with the Avin Avant 4 and it cleared up some issues I was having. Previously I had tried assigning SWC with the iBus app and either they wouldn’t respond or kept doing some default functions. Now everything is working, including the ability to use my steering wheel speech button to trigger Siri inside CarPlay. Time will tell if this will be reliable as I often find that the iBus app doesn’t start up when I turn on my car so I may have to manually trigger it each time I start the car. Was also nice that with iBus I could configure the R/T button for something else, I launch a screen filter app that makes the screen dimmer than it normally can dim to at night.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
There are a few options for how the I-BUS app can launch on startup. Have a look under the general app settings and make sure: Automatic start at reboot, and Automatic app start from USB are both selected.
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Thanks for the suggestions. I am aware of those settings and have always had them on. Sometimes the app comes up after a minute or two (not the whole app, just an on-screen small message saying the USB device was detected) but probably the majority of the time it does not. My CarPlay app opens up automatically every time which is good, but now I don't have volume control unless iBus app loads as well.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
What ROM, launcher and head unit are you using? If you're on Hal9k ROM, don't add the I-BUS app to the "List of applications that do not close when sleep" and check mark the "Restart applications that worked before sleep", and if running FCC launcher, don't add it to Autostart.
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Those are all things I will need to figure out. It is a bone-stock Avin Avant 4 PX6 with Android 9.
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Having removed my Canbus box to just use the iBus app to handle Steering Wheel Controls, things are working pretty well. The only piece that is still missing is the control of the display on the Avant 4 via iBus. With the Canbus box it could automatically turn on the backlight for the buttons and dim the display when the headlights are on, can that be done with iBus app somehow?
[Android Head-Units] HatManSan:
Is there any news on the fixed version as yet? Thank you
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Hi all! Sorry for the late replies, didn't get any notifications....

I'm pretty sure that there is a wire that needs to be removed from the canbus box, and it will work better. I will have to back and find where that was and what wire it was.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Good question! @blue_racer ?
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
I don't have folding mirrors so I probably wont be much help here... @blue_racer

And I'm not sure about the 24 hour clock deal, sounds like a bug: @blue_racer
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
I recognize that there is a wire on the can bus box (brown I believe) that sends the steering wheel control signals. I’m thinking I will reinstall mine to gain the illumination feature for the unit but I still can’t get the iBus app to start automatically when I turn on the car. I will try plugging it into a different USB port sometime.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Hi, there was an update to 2.2.1.2 on 2022-02-04 with the following changelog:

2.2.1.2

- Bugfixes

- Firmware and activation are also displayed at "About"

- Crash when selecting BC Layout in English fixed

- Fixed error "Download failed" from Android 10 onwards

- Crash on negative EHC values fixed

- No GPS dialog can be hidden

- Internet check before determining address (led to system crash on certain devices)

- Display of IBUS status on failed activation

- USB connection check before reading encoding data

So problem with switching layout when language was not German should be solved.

Folding mirrors was only set in the resler module, not also in "central lock" options? I only use "fold with locking car" and "unfold with start engine" - works fine.

If there was no solution: is there an option to plug the USB of the module to a PC so you may log what happens? If so, please send PM.

For changing display (12H/24H) - this option in the app only works if there have been navigation system before (means "ANZEIGE" in speedometer was coded to "bordcomputer" - if there was "MID_basis" etc it do not work) So you may only change this with NCS or BMW scanner

Regarding the KEY2 wire: you like to use SWC control by I-BUS app in this case with being able to change button config freely?

For autostart: which unit are you using? Some units do not check USB ports after wake-up from standby, only after booting. So one option was to use a launcher like https://idrive.ibus-app.de and add I-BUS app in auto start there. Worked properly for me while testing a bad Xtrons MA7039B e.g.
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Yes, iBus is much more configurable for the SWC than than the CAN bus box. For example, iBus lets me launch apps from the SWC. Additionally, I only use CarPlay and never the built-in Bluetooth yet the CAN bus box always launches the Bluetooth app when I press the speech button on the steering wheel. iBus lets me have no assignment to the speech button and my CarPlay app allows me to then use that button to trigger Siri.

My unit (Avin Avant 4) says "USB Ready" most times when I start the car (with the iBus app colors and font, so I presume it's from that) yet the SWC do not work unless I manually open the iBus app. I will look into the other launcher that you mentioned. I also can try using a different USB port and see what happens.
[Android Head-Units] leibniz4:
Thank you very much for the reply, I appreciate it!

Re: clock - that explains it. I did not have nav system originally, so I will stop expecting it to just work and will either forget about it or see if I can hunt down a scanner.

Re: folding mirrors. yes, Central Locking System, folding mirrors setting also set to ON. I will recheck settings, and then I also see a fresh app update is available so I will update as well and try again.

Thanks for the fabulous work on this! Makes a massive difference in the enjoyment of driving my E39. :)
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
May you check the installed MCU version? We saw some probs with auto start of our app with MCU MTCE_GS_3.56 as I remember.

In my wiki you will find 3.67 and latest 3.73 for PX6

Aktuelle Firmware – Wiki rund um Android-Navis für BMW E38/E39/E46/E53

xtrons.ibus-app.de

Please do not use the MTCH MCU (this will also not work, no worry) - this was for the newer units with white sockets at the backend of the unit only.

How does firmware update work?

Sorry for only having a German wiki - but there is a translation function in menu :-)
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
I've got the Avin Avant 4 PX6 with Android 9.0. I believe this means only MCU GS 3.30 is compatible with my unit, correct? My unit is already running MTCE_GS_V3.30_3 so does this mean there's no update for me?
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Well 3.30 was older than 3.67 or 3.73 - So guess there is an update available!? ;-)
[Android Head-Units] Kd7iwp:
Sorry, for the confusion. I see that there are the higher versions, but we’re listed under Avant 4 PX6 Android 10. Since I have Android 9 I figured that meant the newer versions were not compatible.

I installed the new iBus launcher you mentioned but it still doesn’t seem to start up the iBus app, though I did put it in the list of auto start apps and also told it to check every minute if the app is open.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Oh, sorry. I will check my wiki.

But MCU's do more refer to the type "MTCD/MTCE" and "GS" - Android version was not important as far as i know.

Thought members may be interested in this, it may save them from wasting time and money with solutions that do not work.

My Resler is linked to a dash mounted Samsung Tab A 7 lite (I wanted to keep my E38 OEM equipment) and an issue has been running more than a single dongle which drains the battery over a long trip, say within 6 hours, I regularly travel 12 hours (1300 klms) at a time so I have tried all the Chinese adapters, which say they will pass through a charge to the tablet as well as power the OTG item, probably 6 or 7 products, none worked.

Finally, I found an adapter that works with three USB A dongles attached so I can run the Resler, Apple Carplay and a trackball controller all together whilst charging the tablet powered by a single direct connection to the fuse box. Plus there is an Android App which means the screen is always active.

There is a list of compatble Tablets on their website, that have been pre-tested

[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Hope everyone has been doing well!

@blue_racer, It's been a while since an app update... Can you give us any clues on, and when what's to come?
[Android Head-Units] UncleHungry:
I’m hoping you can help me here. I just installed an Avin Avant 4 with the I bus app. The issue I’m having is it doesn’t seem to recognize the DSP as it doesn’t show in the app. When I start the car I get audio for about 30 seconds and then it shuts off. I have no idea where to start. Thanks.
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Sounds like a license issue. Have you purchased both license's?
[Android Head-Units] UncleHungry:
I was unaware there were different licenses until right now, thanks. I’ll buy the license. What do I do then?

Edit: bought the additional license and unlocked it. Turned the key off for a couple minutes and Dsp still isn’t there. Also tried to reset app data with no luck.

Also, checked with INPA and it still reads the DSP.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Hi, we're working on an app for E60/E90 etc by CAN BUS.

Further we got a lot support do do and fit the app for Android 12 units - this update will come soon.

We are currently spending a lot of time on the issue of error reading and coding. The implementation will very likely require DeepOBD and, due to the immense amount of work involved, this additional function will probably not be included in the current licences. However, we are not yet ready to give a concrete plan and release date.

So you've ordered the AVIN incl. Resler module and license for our app? May you send me your VIN (e.g. by PM) to check this? Or are you the one who contact me in facebook too?
[Android Head-Units] Ivan Pronin:
Good afternoon, did anyone have experience installing i-bus on a Mini one / cooper 200-2006? with all the declared possibilities, only the activation of the standard amplifier works for me
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Almost sounds like a license issue: @blue_racer ?
[Android Head-Units] Ivan Pronin:
Hello, every now and then that the license is activated, I control the amplifier without any problems, I see information about fuel consumption, speed and temperature, but for example, when the comfort turn signal is activated, 3 blinks, nothing changes, I also tried to download it myself and create a light show, it does not work, programming blocks also not available

P.s I could make a video if it would be easier to solve the problem
[Android Head-Units] whitewolf8111:
Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall the app? Perhaps granting a permission was missed. I'm not too sure about the setup on a Mini and light controls. But you shouldn't have to keep activating your license. @blue_racer will have a better idea about this.

Yes, a video might be helpful.
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Hello Ivan,

Unfortunately, we have recently discovered that, contrary to our previous information, everything works differently in the Mini R50 than we had previously known.

For this reason, we have logged a Mini and have now created a beta of the app, which can do all the functions - only the tip flashing is not working. Sorry :-(

Unfortunately, only the app can do the functions so far. We still have to adapt the firmware of the Resler module.

We've sent the beta version by mail already. Hoping to get a feedback from you.

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] Ivan Pronin:
Good afternoon, thanks for the quick response and the beta version, about 50% of the functionality worked correctly in the social network, I hope that everything will be fixed and will work as it should, if you need a list of everything that works and how it works, I can send you a video
[Android Head-Units] blue_racer:
Hi, yes please send a video - but if possible to our mail info@ibus-app.de.

Please not that currently only the app was able to perform issues for Mini - firmware of the module have to be fiited first. And we may not find a solution for comfort flashing lights like other companies too :-(

Also you might send a log file (where we may see what the app send and how car reacts) by app menu "about". Please add a note there what we shall look for.
