1. Yes, that's right, there is a clock in the status bar, but it's too small and not clearly visible, as it would be if it were put on the screen, like the speedometer?

2. Of the original applications, I have only removed the radio, because I like yours better. When playing music I either use the original app or run the additionally installed AIMP music app. I tried changing it to hold the media launcher but it won't let me. Maybe I should find a way to remove it like I removed the radio and then give it a try.

3. I also tried in the center of the screen and not only there, but it does not pause, but gives me that it is activated in the settings.

Regarding the weather, I don't know if it is available on the FYT devices, but I imagined it as something like a widget that updates its location and temperature information via the Internet.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Hi Leigh, it's not possible to rollback but it's always possible to fix the problems.

As tester on playstore you have now version 2.47.

Changelog:

- Fix for GPS speed.Now is initialized on resume

- Added option to hide big frequency in vertical list mode.

Please tell me: do youhave no sound after the unit goes in sleep mode or after a cold boot?
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi Kotix,

This morning when I turned on there was no sound (this is the first time that I noticed)

Tonight when I got home (5PM) I made sure that navradio+ was the last and only App running before I turned off the car. Then I went out to my car tonight to double check that it still happens just before posting (9PM).

I'm not sure if that is cold boot or not.

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I just checked again.

Turn on the key and no sound. Tapped the next preset to make sound come on.

Turned off car key for 1 minute then back on again. No Sound.

Tapped current preset once (no sound), twice (no sound), 3 times (no sound) Tapped current preset 5 times and this time there was sound.

I'll update to 2.47 tomorrow on the way to work.

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Temperature is there on FYT devices if you have a CANbus and your car has a sensor to display the outside temperature. This temperature can then be displayed in the notification bar.

The FYTs also have a weather widget, but this is indeed displayed as a widget on the screen and not in the notification bar. Next to that: it is quite buggy.
[FYT Android Head Units] kolarov:
Hi @KoTiX2

Today as I was leaving work and tried again and the Pause was now working.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Issue 2. i was able to make it find NavRadio in the list but the selection isn't stored.

Everytime it ask the default app to open
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2 ,

Last night I had a great idea to try (well.....I thought it was great). I decided to "Reboot" the radio. So after turning on and making the sound work, I selected "Reboot" from the setting menu and waited. Unfortunately Navradio came back on with no sound again.

After that I closed navradio+ and installed the new update. I "Rebooted" again and Navradio loaded with no sound again :(

Then I went to bed:sleep:

This morning when I first started the car navradio started up WITH SOUND :)

Perhaps a Reboot is the answer.

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I've got bad news.

Unfortunately, I had the same no sound again when I was leaving work tonight (at work from 6AM - 3PM).

Several times, on the way home, I rebooted but still it loads with no sound. Yes, it's a long drive home (2 Hours).

One time I swapped startup App to the original "Radio" App (not NavRadio+) then rebooted and Radio started with sound.

Another time I swapped the startup App to NavRadio Basic then rebooted and NRBasic started with sound (it took about 5-10 seconds to hear sound after loading).

Then I swapped back to NavRadio+ then rebooted but sadly it started with no sound.

Then later I filled up with Petrol, I turned off the key while I went to pay. When I came back and started the car there was no sound.

I worked out that two fast taps on the current saved station will make the sound come back. One single tap (no matter how many times you single tap) does not make sound come on.

Does NR+ force to take sound focus when it loads from a system start or only when tapping the icon?

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Navradio request sound when the app start. Not when the unit boot.

Are there other apps that load at startup beside navradio?

Thx for your report.

Other people are reporting me this so definitely i Need to investigate it.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
No other Apps. Just Navradio+.

I have also made sure that NR+ was the only App running at the time of shutdown.

There is something that happened when you fixed the sound Focus problem in the newer releases.

I'm not entirely sure which version I had before updating to 2.46. I first installed the version that you released on my 28/08/22 (the one with a new feature of speedometer widgets). I think it was 2.42 but could be wrong. 2.46 was the first update that I ever did.

Would it make a difference if I uninstalled RN+ and installed the latest version again?

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
I don't think it will make any difference.

I'll look at it tonight, hoping to be able to reproduce it.

Keep using NavRadio_basic in the while if you wish or try the update 2.47..
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I am already using 2.47

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I've noticed a new APP called NR_Service on ma all Apps page and in my startup list. I cannot select NR+ & NR_Service to auto startup at boot at the same time (if I select one then the other turns off)

What is NR_Service? Should this be a hidden system App?

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
NR service start Navradio in background.

Normally you shouldn't see it.

You probably see it because you have enabled the test mode double clicking on the NR icon in "about Navradio" screen?

Double click on it again to disable the test mode and NR service icon will go away.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
I was able to reproduce the problem. I hope i found a definitive solution for this sound issue keeping the correct audio focus for switching with other players.

Version 2.48 is coming for testers ;)

- Fix for GPS speed.Now is initialized on resume

- Added option to hide big frequency in vertical list mode.

- Fix for no audio on boot on FYT devices

A little addition is also that clicking on the radio widget of the fyt launcher, NavRadio is now present in the list and can be launched. The problem is that the selection isn't memorized and everytime it ask you to confirm the selection.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

Another thing that I found was that if no sound at start up then I shift into reverse gear the sound comes back on again after I shift back into forward gear.

Yes I was in test mode. Icon is gone now:rolleyes:

I updated to 2.48 on the way to work this morning and then Rebooted.

I turned the key off when I got to work and then back on again one minute later.

Sound is back 😀​

Thanks for the fast fix.

when update cambus compatibility to show radio freq ?
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Hey, I'm a single developer that do this as an hobby.

I wish to have more time but I have a real life with a family to care about and a real job too

Things will come when i found the time to work on them.

I try to dedicate to this app as much time as i can but please understand that in my priorities I always put first the bugs fixing to leave a usable version of the app in playstore.

To fix the canbus stuff first i need a car with canbus that i don't have, then I need to understand how the radio send the freq info to canbus.

The original radio app is a mess code coming from all older versions of FYT devices and it's really hard to understand how they managed everything.

If anybody wish to help me on this part is very wellcome ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Version 2.50 will be out tomorrow:

Added Bulgarian language

Added pause function from steering wheel controls (on FYT devices it will not restart playing if it was paused, can be done only from touch screen)

Fixed implicit intent errors

Fixed small frequency in grid view

Please report me if anybody have problems with steering wheels controls. ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

What is the "pause" function supposed to do?

I didn't think that you can pause analogue radio.

Is it shutdown? mute? go to home screen? ?

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
It actually mute the sound loosing the audio focus so other apps can gain it.

A guy requested me it for to mute the radio before using the voice commands on the MTC unit.

Unfortunately on FYT and TopWay units loosing the focus makes the app to ignore the next swc commands so it can Pause but it can't Play again.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I use the background based on Logo feature.

Currently the size of the background image is much to big to recognize any of the detail of the Logo. The current size is about 10x zoomed

Are you able to make the background size match the screen size (example zoom to 1024x600).?

Or perhaps some selectable options like 2x 5x 10x & fullscreen?

Regards, Leigh.
[FYT Android Head Units] man55xda:
Dear Kotix, is there any way to download the app for testing instead of PlayMarket? I havent Internet connection on my Teyes SPro+ head unit, can download the app by USB stick only.

I want to check RDS support on Teyes, because radiochip TDA7708 supports RDS but stock radio app doesnt ((( And Im sure that radio stations has RDS on air due to my another car shows RDS
[FYT Android Head Units] richkuj:
The radio is much louder than Android Auto on my head unit and I haven't had luck with changing the relative volume in the "Volume Balance Settings." Maybe just an issue with my unit, but wondered if it would be possible to set a relative volume offset in NavRadio+?

To be clear, this wouldn't be to resolve an issue with NavRadio+, but a feature to work around what I consider to be a bug with the head unit firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] mjcummins:
Hi Kotix2

Fantastic app., great work.

I see that the preferred icons are 250x150 png, so I'm happy that my 180x180 BMPs worked. My Aussie Radio BMPs

Am I correct that png is preferred, and that size is your standard?

Thanks mate.

Also to my Aussie colleges, I have stripped down the full Australia ACMA directory of FM radio licences, and converted the GPS coordinates to ones equal to Google maps standard.

You can filter by state, town, but actually I found if you use excel's "between" filter you can get all the station you might run into. See here : Australia FM Stations extracted from ACMA.xlsx
[FYT Android Head Units] aiui:
Good afternoon,

KoTiX2 I apologize for the question I believe this subject has been discussed a few times, I found some but very vague and from what I saw it was from the beginning, is the RDS AF function already working properly on FYT devices?​
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Hi my friend, tomorrow I'll probably release a new version with 3 more customizations for the logo based background:

- Blur effect applied to the logo on the background

- Zoom/scaling applied to the logo on the background

- Visibility of the logo on the background (fading to black)

So you can play with them a bit ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
You should have a balance for the radio in your unit, somewhere in factory settings.

Right now NavRadio doesn't control the volume in any way and i still have to investigate how it's handled on fyt units.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
The stations logo images must be 255*255 maximum and in png format.

If you want to use your own images you should convert them and put them in Radiólogos folder in internal memory.

Have you checked the package already available with the full version of NavRadio if it already have the logos you posted?

NavRadio cannot assign the logo by zone/area/Provence like the original app.

NavRadio can assign the logos partial-automatically on fyt units by station name match. (On MTC it used also the RDS pi-code)

the logos need to be named in the same way i named all the ones in my packages.

Let me know if you need more infos ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
AF function on FYT devices is totally broken and unusable.
[FYT Android Head Units] richkuj:
Yeah, the radio has a menu for Balance Settings, but it seems to be ignored on mine (or have very little effect). I'm in the process of getting a different head unit, so hopefully it won't be an issue with that one. Just thought it might be a useful feature.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Version 2.51 is coming out for testers:

Added blur, zoom and fading options in settings for Logo wallpaper

Fixed aspect ratio of Logo wallpaper

Fixed Pause on MTC devices that was resuming play once in background

Possible fix for audio lost on T3L and TS18 models

Fixed am/FM switching on ts10
[FYT Android Head Units] hanichl:
Hello @KoTiX2 : Speed gauge - is there any chance to increase the size of the speed gauge in general ( i think about a percent setting in SETTINGS , so say actual size is 100%, and can be enlarged to 200% ). My eyes are not the best anymore, and from the distance the real speed is hard to focus with actual size. Thanks !!!
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Unfortunately the speedometer library i used has many hardcoded dimensions that make the resizing for all the screen sizes really hard to achieve.

Right now i don't feel like spending more time on speedometers, sorry. ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] kolarov:
Hi @KoTiX2

Is it possible to increase the size of the clock digits?
[FYT Android Head Units] DexterMorganNL:
So does AF not work at all? For example there is a Radio station called NPO 3FM, and I know all the frequencies out of my head. Wouldn't it be possible than to manually add these alternative frequency's?

I don't listen a lot to the FM Radio, but have to admit: this app looks way better, than what the Chinese put on our units.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
No, AF don't work at all.

Yes, in NavRadio you can edit each station and add up to 9 alternative frequencies.

Then you can switch manually between them sliding up/down in the middle of the screen or DoubleClicking on the station button
[FYT Android Head Units] sandinista112:
Hi KoTiX2...I installed it navradio+ on my samsung a52 and now I can't uninstall it, do you have a solution?
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Why can't you uninstall it?

Uninstall process is handled by the launcher and phone OS. I t doesn't depend on the app.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I'm really liking the new background Logo enhancements :)

Is it possible, now, to show/hide the regular Logo on Mainscreen and or fullscreen but still keep the background based on Logo. A switch to show/hide Logo on mainscreen and another switch to show/hide Logo on Fullscreen. Something similar to the station buttons (personally I like to see the Logo on the buttons)

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Uhm..ok...

In gridview mode i don't see any problem.

In listview mode if logo is not present it will always show the big frequency.

In Fullscreen the same as listview.

No matters if background is set by logo or a preset or custom backgrounds.

Is this what you need?
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi,

I'm not sure which one is grid view and which is list view :unsure:

I like to see the Logo Background behind the station name (which is center screen) but I don't want to see the regular logo.

Isn't big frequency selectable show or not?

No pressure ;)

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Listview is the vertical stations buttons view mode

Grid view the horizontal buttons

Right now the Big frequency can be hidden if logo is present, in vertical list mode and Fullscreen only.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
OK,

I'll have a play on the way to work tomorrow :)

I'll turn off one of the Logos to see what Big Freq looks like.

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Version 2.52 is ready for testers:

FYT: Fixed steering wheels commands seek+/- with long click

FYT: Widget of original launchers now can show the frequency

Allwinner/TS10: Fixed set frequency on boot

Added support for targetSdkVersion 31
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @KoTiX2

I deleted one of the station logos and then used the logo file as a custom background just to get an idea what it would look like, but there is no transparency/fade/zoom with the custom background so I really couldn't get that much of an idea anyway.

I didn't mind that the large Freq is in the middle because the Station Name and radio text still shows below it. Can you add the feature to the next testers release just to see how it works or not (remove it later if it's no good).

I did find a curious bug when testing:

I deleted the station Logo and hit save, then tested the background. Then I changed to another station to compare Logo versus no logo. When I changed back to the station with the deleted logo the logo was automatically re-loaded again.

I didn't mind this behavior, but it does leave a question for anyone who wants to delete the Logo permanently.

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
I believe that when you have deleted the logo, you set the station to accept new logos, so when you sinthonized it again, it received the station name and it assigned again the same logo.

Actually there is now way to leave a station without logo unless you disable the automatic assignment.
[FYT Android Head Units] sandinista112:
sorry my mistake, everything is fine
[FYT Android Head Units] gimmigio:
Just to better understand ...AF doesn't work also for the stock radio or it is only a problem when using Navradio+?
[FYT Android Head Units] DexterMorganNL:
On the stock radio it doesn't work either. You can't even set them manually, so I have two stations with different frequencies. Which is actually the same radio station. Just it broadcasted at different frequencies, within the country.
[FYT Android Head Units] gimmigio:
so, seems that something is wrong in deep in these cartablets coming from China. There is no possibility to have AF working on every FM Radio app
[FYT Android Head Units] DexterMorganNL:
@surfer63 told me, it's because the Chinese don't need AF with there FM Radio. They use the same frequency for Winnie The Poo Radio, and this software on our headunits is mainly developed for mainland China.

And actually the FM radio works just fine, when you never leave your own region. I know lots of people, who never leave the region. So they wouldn't even use AF on there Radio.

It would have been nice if it worked, but I don't consider it a big issue. If I mainly would listen to the FM Radio, then I wouldn't even consider buying an Android head-unit.
[FYT Android Head Units] gimmigio:
Thank You, now is more clear. Probably these chinese tuners are not able to listen at the same time the Signal strenght coming from more than one Radio Station, as it happens in commercial RDS tuners like Pioneer, Sony, etc...
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
The AF work on MTC units . It's not perfect but it work good enough to enjoy a trip accross regions.

On TopWay models work too but because it's not possible to set a search sensitivy, it work a little bit worst than MTC.

On FYT units it's totally broken because the chinese people has implemented something that has nothing to do with searching for an alternative frequency.

AF function should look for stations with same RDS ID (Pi-Code) with stronger signal but this PiCode is somehow totally ignored.

The weird thing is that in the logs you can see that the Pi-Code is received and signal strenght is read but they are handled in some way but the result is a list of stations that doesn't have the same code/ID, so a bunch of casual stations.

I don't know if this function is made in the FM native libraries, MCU or radio chip or all of them, anyway it's something that cannot be corrected by NavRadio or the original radio app because the picode cannot be read/accessed from the apps so a seek by station ID is not possible to implement.

Comments are wellcome ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] otheracc:
Just wanted to say that my audio focus problems that I reported in post #352 (LINK) seem to have been fixed by the last couple of updates. Thank you.
[FYT Android Head Units] modilev:
This radio is a very good thing!

Is it possible to make it for Mtk proc.?
[FYT Android Head Units] gimmigio:
...now the questione Is: my cartablet Is: Isudar T72, what kind of unit Is It?
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Isudar T72 is a TopWay uis7862 (TS10), you can read in the firmware/MCU version TS10.

Isudar V72 is a FYT uis7862 you can read "NOR" in MCU version
[FYT Android Head Units] Petarkco:
I can confirm that the long pressing is now working! Thank you!

Other things I have noticed after 10 minutes of driving.

*The “scanning frequencies please wait…” pop up stays up for a long time.

*After pausing using the steering wheel controls I am unable to unpause without restarting the app.

*The app returns to the first preset instead of the last tuned station on start.

*No ability to use the band select steering wheel button to switch between FM/AM?
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
It's not possible to unpause from steering wheel on FYT devices but you can do it touching the screen. It's not needed to restart the app.

I will check the other issues you reported.

Thx ;)
[FYT Android Head Units] Petarkco:
I tried that but it didn’t work. Maybe because I had tap to pause turned off. Maybe have it ignore pause/play from the steering wheel if the tap to pause is turned off?
[FYT Android Head Units] Petarkco:
After using it a bit more it would be better to just replace this popup with the frequency one and just show it scanning through the frequencies. At the moment it can be hard to tell when it has stopped on a station until the frequency pop up appears.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Version 2.53 is on the way for testers:

New Splash screen image

UN-PAUSE from touchscreen can be done even if it's disabled in settings

FYT: added steering wheel BAND switch function

Changed Speed, Clock and Temperature widgets can be shown in Main and/or fullscreen

Added speed unit selection Km/h or MPH

TS10: Fixed possible bug on RDS name showing

Hi @KoTiX2,

I couldn't find where to turn on the temperature display widget.
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
It's only for MTC devices
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @kolarov ,

Are you looking for Outside Temperature to be displayed or the Weather Widget?

My Wife's FYT Holden Cruze shows current outside Temp in status bar ( Radio has Canbus decoder).

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] kolarov:
Hi @Leigh63

I wanted it to show the outside temperature like the clock and speedometer, but for now it can't. I also have a canbus on my FYT device, but I wanted it to be visible on the screen.
[FYT Android Head Units] Leigh63:
Hi @kolarov

Does it already show in status bar at the top for you?

If it does not already show on status bar then it will not be available to show anywhere (your canbus does not decode it)

Regards, Leigh
[FYT Android Head Units] kolarov:
Hi @KoTiX2

Is it possible even after the radio settings are saved and saved to copy the file, for example, to a flash drive to save it?
[FYT Android Head Units] KoTiX2:
Look for a file "NavRadio_Preferences" on internal sdcard.

On android 11 i don't remember where it goes exactly
[FYT Android Head Units] kolarov:
I was pretty sure it was this exact file, but I had to ask just in case.
