Thanks for feedback buddy.

1. strange apps - that's ROM thing, since vivid is a global solution, that's apk in other area. should be 5 in total, if you don't like that, just uninstall should be fine.

2. wifi password shown, good suggestion

3. bt password 0000thing, we never met this when tested, is it first time when just flash ROM ? latest bt vivid never change bt name, you can change by your own in vivid setting

4. contact list small you mean the quick letter indicator right? are you using 13 inch or 10 inch HU?

5. radio RDS, yeah we are not fully support RDS in the world so far. will improve in the future

6. amplifier will be updated, working with HCT now

7. there is reboot in vivid setting -> general; reboot to recovery cannot supported from vivid, may not add.
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
1. Yes..i will remove them...i supposed as you were not.using it you were going to remove all unused apps, but probably i will need root privileges

2. Ok.

3. Happened from fresh ROM installation.

4. Yes I am on 10inch

5. Ok.

6. Ok.

7. As vivid launcher is a system app it has root privileges so reboot into recovery is just am android command that could be implentented quickly. (Am I wrong?)

Thank you so much for supporting and your effort.
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
It is a pity that there are no such logos of radio stations as here in the photo in the NavRadio application. Even if you could assign a logo (graphics) and a name to a given icon of VIVID radio stations, it would be a great :)
[MTCD Software Development] ilmisu:
Quoted!😉 Same from me
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
1. Yes, have a look at the attached pictures, one took before boot where the Spotify is playing the another one took after reboot where you can see that no media is playing.

2. Exactly, the dashboard doesn't change to navi panel when using google map.
[MTCD Software Development] Arkantolo:
solved! thank you!
[MTCD Software Development] stinkytoes:
Thanks @vivid_1 that did the trick for me too! The map is working now.
[MTCD Software Development] ilmisu:
@vivid_1 I have one more question. the maps vew on home page follows the car placeholder ina kind of step-by-step mode, is not smooth in movement as maps uses to be.

is that normal? for my understanding only. ;)

aaaand, I've downloaded offline maps to avoid to use my smartphone everytime in hotspot mode. but once I come out from the cached map, it shows it blurry even if it's present offline into maps. any clue on this?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
The offline downloaded maps for Google maps are not used by the widget....is part of the limitation of the Google maps API used. You can use Google Maps opened and you will see your offline maps correctly. This issue was explained by vivid team before.
[MTCD Software Development] ilmisu:
Acknowledged. Thanks a lot for clarification.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
woo~ really helpful, weird though. Cause from the first pic right corner, I can see the current media source show 'local music', but from what you said that song actually from Spotify right? that means the current media source somehow wrong.. we'll try to look at this.

You can try change the source right corner from local to spotify again and try the same case see if it can recover.

2. hmm.. now you can always reproduce this using latest vivid? I assume you are using PX6 vivid ROM and latest version right?
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
lol vivid google map view is we built using google sdk, cannot connect to offline map with google map app.

for the not smooth issue, we'll try, thanks for feedback.
[MTCD Software Development] IAmNotMe01:
i have th exact same problem :(, did you find any solution?
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
1. I have just checked this solution. When Spotify was playing I changed the source to Spotify in the right corner but it doesn't help. After reboot, there is again local media chosen in the right corner and nothing is playing.

Just an idea: can this issue be caused by a lack of Internet connection when the media are trying to resume? When I start my car it takes a few seconds to connect with the wifi from my phone. May you need to add some delay before media try to resume to ensure that there is access to the Internet.

2. Yes, this is all the time like that. I use the latest version of the Vivid launcher but I don't use Vivid ROM. I use HCT7_rk3399_10.0_ota.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
1. no internet has been handled should not be the case. which Spotify are you using now and where did you download that? can you help check the package name or app name of that?

com.spotify.music.SpotifyApplication or

com.spotify.lite.app.LiteApplication or

com.spotify.musid.SpotifyApplication

2. Can you check if google maps app notification has been turned off by you? cause we depend on notification to get the navigation information.
[MTCD Software Development] Don Kihoty:
Today i lost my patience.

Vivid (ROM + Launcher) is just to inconsistent.

It cant even do the most basic thing - PLAY MUSIC.

Every time i start my car, i have to wait for about 2-3min.

Today i tried to switch the songs - and yes, the Vivid player can see all the song on my USB,

i can choose them, switch to them, but they dont start to play.

So i dont want to deal with it anymore.

Basic thins that dont work:

- PLAYING THE MUSIC WHEN THE CAR STARTS

- Folders arranging by the Alphabet (they are random and it sux)

- No radio station names or logos

- No integration for the Dasaita DAB

Im sorry, it looked to good to be true, and it is not true - its just a bad lauchner that need years to fix the basic stuff, and then it maybe can be used daily.

Im done with it. Good luck to everybody, but after 6 Month, the same basic things dont work.
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
1. It was installed through the google play store. The package name is in the attached photo.

2. It is enabled. Photo attached.
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
@vivid_1 I have made additional tests.

1. ROM HCT7_rk3399_10.0_ota(20211109) + latest Vivid launcher - there are 2 problems which I mentioned before.

2. ROM telenav_vivid_rk3399_10.0_ota(20220307) - these problems don't exist. Unfortunately I cannot use this rom because it has a bug with Bluetooth. It sometimes connects my phone and sometimes there is an error.

3. ROM MAX10 Version HA3_rk3399_10.0_ota(20220316) + latest Vivid launcher - the same problems like in point 1.

It looks like Vivid works better in dedicated Vivid ROM and that there are some bugs when I install Vivid launcher on other ROMs. Unfortunately Vivid ROM is not a solution because of it's problems with Bluetooth.
[MTCD Software Development] The_IronBeast:
Same issue with Bluetooth here, fully connects every other reboot. Other times the Bluetooth settings on the headunit says it is connected but phone says it is not. In this "partially" connected state it will not manually disconnect from phone. The started when I tested the latest version of Scout ROM then went back to Max10 ROM, same with VIVID ROM. Could it be related to the MCU? OS is definitely not managing the BT chip very well.
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Did you experience a Bluetooth problem on different ROMs? I noticed a problem on Vivid ROM but not on HCT7 or HA3(MAX10).

I am using the latest MCU 3.78.
[MTCD Software Development] The_IronBeast:
Issue started with Scout ROM, but remained across all ROM versions
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
We'll try those ROMs to find clue, thanks for feedback
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
will look at this thanks for feedback
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Sorry not to meet your need. I guess we may just not receive much input about this issue and we haven't found the issue when QA process.

1. wait for about 2-3min ? why?

2. usb music don't play? we assume auto play last media source is working for all media

3. Folders arranging by the Alphabet (they are random and it sux), sound sux... will add later.

4. radio name or logo, that's in planning... recently our users feedback to us and we did know now.

5. Dasaita DAB is not compatible with android media standard, and has no API/sdk for 3rd party to integrate so..

Thanks anyway for all your support along the way.
[MTCD Software Development] maceland89:
about spotify a strange thing happens to me:

- If I'm listening to Spotify and I'm at minute 1 of the track, when I turn the car off and on again sometimes Spotify restarts (not always ...) but the song restarts from the beginning and not from minute 1.

- Other times, Spotify restarts when turned on but the app fails to load the data and remains with a black background (maybe because it restarts and there is no internet available yet?) At that point then I have to kill the app and restart it
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
I have some bugs during ViViD ROM Android 11 testing:

When starting the unit (hot start or cold start) vivid logo appears then disappeared and after 7seconds of black screen it starts normally.

Recent (background) apps button on the status bar does not work....it does nothing...if long press then it starts the split screen but after readjusting the split screen the layout never recovered (see photo)

This last issue happened on Android 10 and android 11 testing...as the ROMs do not contain the latest vivid launcher version....after automatically updated the radio station seek function does not work properly (nor the favourite creation). It is necessary to boot the unit for the launcher properly work.

Anderoid 11 Waze voices are not cut anymore and the voice instructions are listened completely and correctly (on A10 vivid ROM don't)
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
where do you get the android 11 ROM? Please contact Dasaita for the latest one cause one of the test version has the recent not working issue buddy.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
will try to test the case
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
It is the latest from.Dasaita. i am testing for them (20220316)

Another issue:

Music does not resume (radio nor Spotify) when waking up from sleep
[MTCD Software Development] maceland89:
on dasaita px6 max10 someone has already installed android 11? If yes, how do you do it? thank you

su dasaita px6 max10 qualcuno ha già installato android 11? Se si, come si fa? grazie
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
We tried but cannot reproduce this one. And it seems these two issues are all Spotify app issue?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Currently on testing...be patient
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Reported - not english
[MTCD Software Development] The_IronBeast:
Thanks @vivid_1 the issue seems to be when the unit powers down. I replicated the issue several times, where turning off the unit for less than 10 seconds manages to retain connection but leaving the unit off for longer creates the situation where BT only connects every other time. This happens on all ROMs since the latest update. I imagine whatever was changed recently was copied across the code for all ROMs.
[MTCD Software Development] maceland89:
sorry.....

on dasaita px6 max10 someone has already installed Android 11? If so, are you coming? thank you
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
@maceland89 @urgo2x We've heard from Dasaita that HCT has some BT issue in recent changes on Android 10, maybe the reason HCT rom ok but MAX10, VIVID all have that, next release we'll include the fix.​
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
We've found the google map nav panel issue, will be fixed in later release.
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Hello. Installed new VIVID software and now the NavRadio application is speeding approx. By no means bluetooth also ok. Spotify also ok. Super robot. Only the equalizer is not developed as in HA3, it is a pity :) Best regards
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Thx, 😊

Thx for info. I will try it. BTW how did you cope with navradio sound issue? Does it work on the last Vivid ROM?
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Welcome. It works for me. I turned on the standard radio and then paused (that is, turned it off). I already had the NavRadio app installed, I launched and it works :)
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Didn't you turn the radio off in the factory settings? I did and still no sounds. What do you mean by "paused" the standard radio app?
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
On the main screen I had the radio on and I did I clicked on the pause
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Hi, I confirm @gilal news. I have already installed the latest Vivid ROM. The Bluetooth, Spotify media resume and navigation panel are working. 😁

@vivid_1 great update. 🙂

BTW, any plans to add Polish language? I am willing to help.
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Ad

Hello. I am also in favor of adding Polish. Regards :)
[MTCD Software Development] Eleari:
Such a great looking launcher. Great job to the developers!

I do have some problems though.

My device is PX5 Android 11 / MCU: MS064-px5_C54_whc02a-aAaAaA:20211022 /Radio TDA7786 RDS / BT BLINK_8723DS installed on a MB W203 2005

- radio app launches and allows me to scroll through stations and add favorites, however, there is no radio signal and sound

- BT does not connect, even though original launches shows phone is connected

Is there anything I can try on my end to fix this?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
The launcher is optimized for mctd units (and others....check the original post of this thread) ....i think your unit is not supported
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Thanks for feedback, equalizer assuming will be in next release ROM
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Will add missing languages, really need you guys' help, we'll plan how to manage such thing, will let you know if ready, thanks
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Px5 android 11 install vivid launcher? hmm, what's the brand of the px5 device, we may not have such device here but we can look into that information.
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
What about the issues on Android 11 vivid rom? @vivid_1
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Welcome. Today, while driving the car, the unit with the latest version of VIVID reset and there was no sound in the NavRadio application. I changed radio stations, but there was no sound. I had to enter the original FM vivid radio, the sound appeared, I pressed on the pause, I started NavRadio and the sound was already there. I don't know why. Maybe this information will be helpful? Best regards
[MTCD Software Development] Chris Tsagarakis:
Hello, I tried vivid launcher and i cant access radio or other music. It only shows local music on the thmbnail.

Unit is YT9216BJ
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Hi @vivid_1 ,any chance to add Navradio+ to the supported media players?
[MTCD Software Development] teka15:
Hello.

First of all congratulations and ty for this beautfull launcher.

My headunit is an ums512_1h10_Natv but my bluetooth not recognizes on launcher.

If you want i can help with pt-br translate, just let me know.
[MTCD Software Development] marchnz:
Post system information from Android
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Hi, today the same happened to me.
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Welcome. And I already thought that it was only with me, and yet I did not :) Something in the VIVID software. Thank you for the information :) Best regards
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Hi YT9216BJ is some solution we don't have hardware integration, so only can be used as a pure launcher. you may need use stock app for bt and radio, We don't have their hardware api access so if there are many same HU users you may report to your dealer if they want us to adopt
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:

[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Hi we are not sure we are compatible with NavRadio, I guess because both app access Radio api of the system, conflicting, let's test if we can work with it.

The 'latest version of VIVID reset' reset means it restarts somehow?
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Sure where can I find Navradio+? is it the same with Navradio guys mentioned?
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
Yes, it is available in the google play store in 2 versions, the free one and paid version.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
sorry man, what issues on Android 11 now? lol
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Yes, the VIVID software reset while driving the car. Everything disappeared and restarted. As if an update was being installed
[MTCD Software Development] Eleari:
Thank you for reaching out!

I am attaching pictures of what the unit looks like. Sadly, I could not find who the maker/brand is. It might as well not be an actual Android 11 unit as some hardware info applications shows Android 11 (fake) :cautious: API Level is 30

PX5 Rockchip RK3368

MCU: MS064-px5_C54_whc02a-aAaAaA:20211022 / Radio TDA7786 RDS / BT BLINK_8723DS
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
In my opinion is useless having both vivid and navradio+ due to the conflict that could exist to try to access to radio (remember that radio is not managed by android system but by the MCU)...

Navradio+ is just a radio tuner with customization capabilities (station name/logo....)

Perhaps could be better to integrate the navradio+ customization features into the vivid radio API.
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Welcome. NavRadio is a very good application and well developed (I have a paid version) and automatically tunes FM waves as there is a weaker signal while driving. The on-board radio, on the other hand, is simply empty. It works and nothing else
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Right that's in plan. And we've look at that issue yesterday, we cannot add NavRadio/NavRadio+ into media list cause they did conflict with vivid radio, but in next release we'll actually try to let them working well with vivid launcher but cannot control by vivid launcher.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:

[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Thank you for your reply. How navRadio will normally work with VIVID is great. To make the FM VIVID radio more extensive (station logo, station description ..) it would not be necessary to NavRadio :)

Best regards
[MTCD Software Development] pskopylov:
Hi @vivid_1. I noticed what you say about VIVID radio, but i don't think i have that feature.
[MTCD Software Development] artufresh:
Nice job! Now it is my favorite launcher!

But i have one question,how can i make homescreen navigation changed to vaze navigator,or its just google maps?
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
After a few days of using the latest Vivid ROM, the map panel doesn't switch to the navigation mode again. I checked it when I installed the ROM and it was working. After that, I didn't use the navigation for a few days. Today, I wanted to use it, and it doesn't work.
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Just Google maps....read the entire thread as it is answered many times
[MTCD Software Development] Jayijato:
hello could you add Dacia cars? and it would be nice to have the possibility of having the navigation map of the main screen offline so as not to necessarily have to connect your smartphone each time?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Which specific feature do you think will be enabled by adding Dacia cars?

Read the entire thread .... Your question is already answered
[MTCD Software Development] FreddeJ:
First of all, lovely launcher. By far the best and modern looking launcher out there in my opinion.

Could you please include Scandinavian characters. As it is now i got all these weird characters listening to radio whenever there is a Swedish artist or song including å, ä or ö in it.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Are u using PX5 or PX6 device? if so should have Radio and BT support in vivid launcher
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Sorry Waze official don't support such SDK or API, but we do support Waze search or home/work when you using waze app, the default app will be waze on domainbar and when you go search/home/work on vivid dashboard, will turn to Waze app to function. Thanks for feedback
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Hi Buddy, actually that issue should have not fixed in your version yet. We've fixed it in the coming version, the root cause is different region google using different format so the extraction of information wrong. New version should be in later this month. lol
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
wow, thanks for feedback, will look at this later.
[MTCD Software Development] KoTiX2:
Hi, I'm the developer of NavRadio+.

I found that to make my app work with vivid launcher i need to add a mediaplayer service in my code so the launcher can properly give audiofocus to my app.

Right now NavRadio start only a mediasession to send logo and radio infos but I'm working on adding the mediaplayer service to avoid these kind of problems, i just need to find the time and proper way to add it.

In the while I can tell you some actions that could be usefull:

The main NavRadio+ service is "com.navimods.radio.RadioService"

The NavRadio_free service is "com.navimods.radio_free.RadioService"

To start playing and gain audiofocus: "navimods_play_action"

To stop the service: "navimods_stop.service"

To switch to next station: "navimods_next_action"

To switch to prev station: "navimods_prev_action"

I hope this help a bit.

If you need more infos, feel free to ask.

;)
[MTCD Software Development] gilal:
Welcome. Thank you on my behalf for getting involved in the VIVID project. I use your paid version and I am satisfied with it, so it would be nice if your application works properly with VIVID. Super and greetings
[MTCD Software Development] Francesco78162398:
Hi, has the app been removed from the play store? I wanted to download it but can't find it.
[MTCD Software Development] urgo2x:
It depends on your location. It's also not available in my country. Look at the second post. There is a link to the apk.
[MTCD Software Development] Handronamo:
First off, I want to thank you for making this great launcher! Just got an android head unit and this is by far the best looking launcher I've found. I searched the thread and didn't see an answer however I might have missed it.

I installed google maps and can launch it fine, however on the home screen the map area is black? How do I get it to show google maps?

The weather also is not displaying. Is there somewhere I need to go to configure the weather widget?

Thank you!
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Yes we just knew that, please use the download link in the forum for now. We'll update version in recent two days to fix google's warning.. sorry for inconvenient
[MTCD Software Development] artufresh:
My position on map is moving,but map is stuck in one position and weather doesn’t update

how i can fix it

I have internet connection all the time and gps antenna on the roof
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Hey thanks for reaching out, when you have your time and media session is ok please let me know. We'll try to test your actions to see if it helps when we have time.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Which vivid version are u using and what's the headunit? in latest vivid version google map issue should not exist. weather is depending on location so I guess that's the map issue as well.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
map stuck? can you provide headunit and vivid version thanks.
