I installed Vivid Launcher today. I can not find my music files stored in the internal memory.

What might I be doing wrong?

I find the files icon and the external devices icon, but I can not find the screen for me to search all the folders in the internal memory or the folders tree.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
What you mean, can you specify?
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
first time vivid should can those files automatically. songs will appear in local music views.
[MTCD Software Development] JF_Derzi:
They don't show.

Is there a way to force a rescan or a way do add them manually?

If Vivid launcher showed me the folder tree for me to pick my saved folders it would be enough.
[MTCD Software Development] pskopylov:
Hi. Is it possible to add Yandex Music support to the music widget (like a Spotify)?
[MTCD Software Development] blairpoodle:
Will that be a launcher update or a ROM update?
[MTCD Software Development] blairpoodle:
Also I've discovered a regression from the original ROM. There is no way to edit the recent calls log. On the original firmware the app allowed you to remove individual numbers from the call log, this feature has been removed in the new Vivid ROM. You should consider adding this feature.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Both, ROM on dasaita forum and launcher here on google play
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Vivid ROM don't have this feature yet, got u will add to queue

[MTCD Software Development] Don Kihoty:
Hi everyone,

im using the Dasaita Vivid ROM ota282021102129 + the Vivid version 4.10.3295.

Could you please share the Apk 4.10.3306 version via Dropbox for download?

What i saw so far:

- The music resume from USB does not work 9/10 times - that one time that it works, it is a surprise.

Fix? I set the "beta" skin - then it resumes the music playback from USB every time.

- Day/Night does not work in the 4.10.3295 - i set it to night in the settings.

- The screen brightness is to high at night, even on lowest setting. Fix?

Go to advaced car option menu, then set the global brightness from 50 to 30, reboot the device

Its not the fastest launcher, but it is functional. It will get better as time passes.

Excited to test the 4.10.3306, so please share it via Dropbox!

Best regards
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Thanks for feedback! We'll look into those issues you met can fix ASAP. If you are using the version 4.10.3295, then you can update through vivid setting -> Softwares -> Update to OTA, you should also get notification when launcher vivid about the update. Anyway, I'v updated the apk download link in original post
[MTCD Software Development] Don Kihoty:
Hi, thanks for the download link, i will test the 3306 version - looking forward to test it.

PS - I cant find the app for the DAB+ Radio anymore.

I use the Dasaita Box:

https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005001578935558.html

Could you please add the DAB+ support in Vivid?

Thanks!
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Oh? will look into that
[MTCD Software Development] Don Kihoty:
I found the original Dasaita DAB+ APK, uploaded it to my Box:

YHX-DAB+W8-S1.38.apk | Powered by Box

app.box.com

Maybe this could help with integration into the Vivid ROM.

Installing the APK and starting it let me use the Dasaita DAB+ module.
[MTCD Software Development] Clandaries:
I think DAB-Z is the best app atm.

Have you tried it, or does other DAB apps not work with the Dasaita DAB+ box?

Regards
[MTCD Software Development] Don Kihoty:
DAB-Z does not work - it only works with USB DAB devices, not OEM devices.
[MTCD Software Development] VANOSNR1:
Hi all,

First of all I want like to thank you for this great launcher, I really like the simplicity and oem feel it has.

I am using the Dasaita ROM with Vivid launcher included in the ROM. The OTA update of the launcher worked perfectly!

I do have a few questions/recommendations.

1. I am wondering how the sunrise/sundown is determined, is this on regional setting or location based on GPS? This is not working for me at the moment(living in the Netherlands).

2. Now that the left map is always headingup the navigation instruction should be at the bottom of the map instead of the top, because this is now blocking the roads ahead.

3. I would like to have a speedometer/weather widget at the homescreen. Where the speedometer could be an overlay on the map and the weather could be displayed above the music widget at the right, maybe also move time/date above the music widget?

4. I would love to have the ability to launch an app on start, to have my radar detector running in the background. Do you know if this is already possible within the firmware or launcher?

Much appreciated!

Regards
[MTCD Software Development] ycvitamin:
Well. Glad you like it and thanks for your feedbacks. Here are some answers for your questions:

#1. It is according to the sunraise and sunset times. And you need to set the "Appearance" to "Auto" since the default setting is “Dark”.(You can find it under the Settings--Display--Appearance.). Also, we will do some test and investigate our algorithm.

#2. Put the navigation toast on the top is help the driver easy to look at the guidance and no need to look down more while driving. We will adjust the size to reduce to block the roads ahead.

#3 #4. Would assessment whether we could add these

Anyway. Please feel free to raise your questions/recommendations and let's together to inprove the Product Experience. Thanks again.
[MTCD Software Development] VANOSNR1:
Thanks for the quick response!

Regarding:

#1. Yes indeed I have the appearance in "Auto" mode, it does change based on the time it seems. Only not matching day/night for me, at this moment 1pm (CET), it is giving the dark lay out and yesterday evening it was giving me the light layout. Therefor my question is how are the sunrise and sunset times are determined?

#2. I understand, safety first ;-), for me personally the map is giving helpful information when I can see what is coming up. As current position is now in the centre of the map in combination with the driving directions, we do not see a lot of the roads ahead. Would it be an option to move the current position lower in the map, so that there would be more visible of the roads ahead?

One new question for now.

#5. I use 2 additional apps which i can control perfectly with the music widget. Dab-z and Spotify :)

It does show the dab-z radio stations logo's correct, but the Spotify album art is not showing, is this something that can be resolved?

Regards!
[MTCD Software Development] VAHID:
Hi

Can you use hct 7 base rom to work day an night mode(dark or light) in app and setting?

I suggest that insert direct buttun in left side to switch between radio,bt,bt music and bt

Pls Insert bt music and radio app directly.
[MTCD Software Development] vz_commo:
one suggestion i have is when pressing on the music widget on the home screen instead of opening the bluetooth settings if it could open the now playing overlay that you can open when your in another app

would also like some customization of the now playing overlay it just looks so plain and boring but thats just a personal preference
[MTCD Software Development] ycvitamin:
Thanks.

#1. We found an issue about the algorithm and we will resolve it in next release. Please have a try once you get the update

#2. Yes, we understand. And we will try to resolve the issue that while driving the CVP will locate at the 1/3 of the screen instead of the center.

#3. We will investigate whether we could get the Album from the third part App
[MTCD Software Development] ycvitamin:
Hello

Thanks for your suggestions.

#1. Can you let us know why you need this? Actually we use the logic which is according to the sunraise and sunset times. And you need to set the "Appearance" to "Auto" since the default setting is “Dark”.(You can find it under the Settings--Display--Appearance.). It should also work in HCT 7 base rom

#2. We will consider your suggestion and do the improvement.

Please continue to use and let us know your more feedbacks. Thanks
[MTCD Software Development] ycvitamin:
Hello

Thanks for your feedbacks. But i'm sorry that i cannot get your issue/problem. Can you take a pic/video for me to understand your request?

Best Regards
[MTCD Software Development] GooseFetus:
So I would just like the icons across the bottom and nothing else. No Google maps window, no music window and maybe just a large clock where the maps and radio windows are
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Install other launcher.

So you are asking to remove all the functionalities that are attractive from vivid. Change to card theme if that fits better to you....if not...check which other launchers can fit your needs.
[MTCD Software Development] GooseFetus:
Don't ask you don't get

Hi, I am having a issue connecting my phone to Bluetooth. It’s coming up as findable as “.” Not “VIVID” like the instructions say. I connected to “Topway” which then prompt me with a pin code on my iPhone as well as the app but it still says phone disconnected. Any fix to this?
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Is your headunit supported by vivid launcher?
[MTCD Software Development] AustynR:
How do I find out what is supported? Everything else works. It’s a T10V3 from cartrimhome
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Read the first post:

"Integrated with HCT and ums512_1h10_Natv Head Units"

If your unit is not an hct (MTCd or MTCE) or ums512_1h10 one....then is not supported
[MTCD Software Development] AustynR:
So my my headunit is a ums512_1h10_Natv so all good there. So how can I get Bluetooth music working through vivid?
[MTCD Software Development] Dats240z:
Im surprised i havent put a screw driver through the screen yet. I dont know what changed, hell maybe nothing buyt for a few weeks ive been having full on crashes to black no audio, wont power up, wont respond to 15 second reset, sometimes i need to disconnect battery.... Ive emailed w/ dasaita and they had me boot w/ 15second reset deal and install new file from usb, still same problems. Hows a gut gut this px6 vivid 11 completly and start from scratch? I am at a loss, my latest email was send me another and ill send this back or refund . im open to opinions, ill try whatever rom mcu wtf its called lol. Vivid 11 currently, when it works.

Here's what i was sent to try, but no bueno even froze during rkloader installation?

telenav_vivid_rk3399_11.0_ota(20220719).zip
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
I recommend you to downgrade to Android 10. Get a full image (not OTA) and downgrade although it seems to be a hardware issue (flash memory)
[MTCD Software Development] Dats240z:
Thanks, I'll see what they say after tonight's email but if I go and try your route, Where's a guy to source the files? Appreciate the assist, I'm new to the android head unit game
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
Flashing is not so direct as the OTA update. It requires windows PC, a usb-A to usb-A cable, the rockhip tools for flashing and the full image.
[MTCD Software Development] Dats240z:
Ahh ok, so deeper than I'm gunna go lol. Thanks, I'll await dasaita and if push comes to shove I can find a local shop I'm sure
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
everytime you launch vivid, should trigger this process. can you also try stock app to see if it works as well
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
we should already support Yandex. package is

ru.yandex.music

Does Yandex music has some variants?
[MTCD Software Development] n.manzari:

[MTCD Software Development] pskopylov:
Hi. I reinstalled the app and it worked, thanks. There are any news about Yandex Navigator integration to the map widget?
[MTCD Software Development] Dats240z:
working with dasaita i found my issue. they had me reseat the main board/chip inside. interestingly enough its been good for days! must have somehow come loose or had weak connection.

QUESTION about data connectivity. Do i simply plug in a usb - cell service(4g/lte) adapter band good to go? I dont want to buy one and setup with my provider and it do nothing
[MTCD Software Development] lsvazquez:
Hey @vivid_1 I reported this same bug some time ago, did you guys have any plan to fix it in the next update?

Apart from this one, there is another bug that makes me to push several times the next/previous button in the steering wheel to change the radio station; it's quite random, since sometimes is ok pushing it once, but others you have to push it 2 or 3 times to change the radio station. My unit is PX6 MAX10.

Thank you!
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
I think you have missed one thing....this is a thread for vivid launcher EXCLUSIVELY.

please....use threads for your unit/platforms in order your hardware/software questions could be answered appropriately.
[MTCD Software Development] ikerg:
What I recommend vivid team is to create one post .... "Issues/bugs found" (that vivid team should update accordingly) with the list of the issues (and version in which the issue/bug was found) that captured to be fixed from the users and with estimation on which release they think the issue could be fixed...in order the users could consult and provide information or other new bugs and not ask for the same issues.

We know vivid team is suffering from lack of developers and we appreciate the effort for giving to us a full attractive and functional launcher.
[MTCD Software Development] lsvazquez:
Yes, I think that's a really good idea.
[MTCD Software Development] Dats240z:
Well I guess then I need clarity on if the setting to keep the stereo on after key off is in vivid....
[MTCD Software Development] CitizenInsane69:
Hi,

Regarding issues related to song playing order (not inline with effective track order put into tags of the song) I previously reported, I installed VLC player as a workaround to default "local media player"

It integrates very well with the (multiple)-media widget on the dashboard

Song order is now correct (Jezzz, can't explain how such a relief it is:))

Previous/Next buttons on the steering wheel or in the widget are working fine

Previous button (unless shortly press before) behavior is to return to beginning of current song as expected (and not previous song)... Great!

VLC interface filters media by genre/artist/album so it is easy to navigate them

Very good alternative to me.

Only issue I noticed is that if we activate the "Android TV interface" mode in VLC it stops playing in middle of songs for unknown reason (I can't tell if it is a issue with VLC or due to integration with vivid).. Anyway "classic interface" of VLC is working fine and is good enough for controlling media layer while driving

@vivid_1 I'm sad to read that you are running short on ressources. I hope things will normalize soon. I don't know how many are like me but a paid/donation model to support your great interface is fine for me. Take care and keep it up!
[MTCD Software Development] n.manzari:
All it's solved. I have to re upload logos. Thanks.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Good to hear. For yandex map, no plan so far.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
is creating a post on XDA the most recommended way to do this? Any other suggestion? I feel like how I should name that post and operating post may make users confuse about the two post? What you guys think?

How about using GitHub for this purpose

https://github.com/VIVID-AUTO/VIVID-Launcher
[MTCD Software Development] pheff:
I have the iphone connected by bluetooth, and the contacts appear on the radio. However, when someone calls me or I call them, the name of the contact is NOT displayed, only the phone number.

I think this didn't happen to me before, but now I doubt... What could it be?

On the other hand, when I use CarPlay, I use Google Maps, and I have the day mode on, because in automatic mode it only stays in night mode (it does not change), during the day it does not go into day mode, so it is somewhat uncomfortable. What can be?

thanks
[MTCD Software Development] CitizenInsane69:
I think it's a good option to have issues tracked on GitHub

Any way to access launcher shortcuts? I use an external key device for launching apps and simulating swipes. I'm missing being able to open the app drawer with a key press. Nova had a setting where pressing home on the home screen launched the app drawer.

@vivid_1 what about the integration between vivid launcher and navradio+?
[MTCD Software Development] ispanicorc:
Buongiorno ho installato vivid su isudar t72 nello specifico ts10 ho riscontrato alcune anomalie per esempio dal Launcher vivid non mi fa accoppiare il bluetooth e poi un altra cosa che ho notato è che non mi fa vedere il widget del meteo...

come posso risolvere?

Mod translation via GT:

Good morning I installed vivid on isudar t72 specifically ts10 I found some anomalies for example from the Vivid Launcher does not make me pair the bluetooth and then another thing I noticed is that it does not show me the weather widget ...

how can i solve?

The problem I see with GitHub is that not everybody is familiar with Git, they would have to create a pull request for every new bug for instance. I think that https://trello.com/ could be a good choice for this, since the users could see the status of the bugs fixing carried out by the developers.
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
o you don't need git, just the web page for easy edit like below. Only problem is everyone need an account I guess...
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
And do you guys have any IM system suggested, e.g. WhatsApp or Facebook messager or others, what's the most popular for an IM group talk, so that we can easily share options that forum. Although I think XDA is great
[MTCD Software Development] lsvazquez:
Ok let's use GitHub then. I think it would be useful to add to the readme a template with the format to open new issues.
[MTCD Software Development] Molykote:
hi,

First of all congratulations to the developers for the launcher. It is just what I was looking for.

After having tested it for several days, I have found a bug for me that I don't know how to solve.

I am using Vivid on a Junsun V1Pro and with a galaxy a50 smartphone, connected via bluetooth and sharing the internet connection.

The problem is that when I am listening to local music and I receive a notification on the smartphone, Vivid stops local playback, switches to bluetooth audio, and no longer resumes local audio playback.

I don't know if this is a Vivid problem or is it a problem with my smartphone, does anyone know what is going on.

Thanks in advance.
[MTCD Software Development] Antsah82:
Weather not working on my Junsun v1 pro (Finland)
[MTCD Software Development] ZeekWorld:
I have a suggestion:

Vivid Admins need to clean up the multiple Vivid threads and decide to go with one platform.

There are like three different Vivid threads here on XDA, the none officials don't even have a first post with the official thread url.

Now I read there is a GitHub channel as well.

Having Vidid information all over the place it doesn't help the average user.

Try to consolidate, "Merge" the XDA threads into one, if you want to go with GitHub which in my opinion is a much better option than a forum thread to follow issues/bugs, add the channel info to your first post to divert your audience.

Hello, I installed vivid on my Chinese car radio and I have a problem with android auto emulated by Carlink 2.0, it does not play audio from android auto

It worked with the original launcher

My steering wheel controls don't work properly on this launcher.

I can't skip to next track or go back to the previous track - This works flawlessly on the stock launcher and Headunit Reloaded.

I have a 2002 Mercedes C Class with a PX6 MTCE Unit running Hal9k Android 10

Additionally, I enabled autostart music however, this does not work properly. Again, this works on Android Auto.

Update: fixed the steering wheel by changing the MCU from SWC to Can and manually programming the skip button.

I loved Vivid launcher on my old Android Head Unit till it packed up. I'm looking to replace it with a tesla style head unit.

Does Vivid launcher work on these head units, or is it just for horizontal units?
[MTCD Software Development] sky_frog:
Hi! I would like to suggest creating some one theme. Something like this. In my opinion the original theme has too much unused space on the players side. It would be great if the developers added this theme. Even better that there would be some kind of themes constructor.
[MTCD Software Development] lr_man:
That would be very nice :-)
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
it works on vertical headunits~
[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
Awesome! That've been considered for a long time but not come a perfect solution, actually we need your thoughts here.

1. While do you guys mind that the map is so big and without active routing functionality?

2. We want to make this nice but integrate active routing, search apis etc need us pay to map providers, that means if we do a subscribe version to charging end users, do you think anyone may want pay that? True thoughts please.

3. What if we combine the classic dash and card dash together (means all card like this pic but can swipe to right), is it a better solution?

4. any other thoughts or prototypes for dashboards you like, we can take those into consideration together.

[MTCD Software Development] vivid_1:
I'm not familiar with that, you mean 1. radio station search? FM radio? 2. data? what kind of
