[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] DWilks:
I received my unit 'HA2186-MAX10-CP-HD' with no HDMI connector attached to the rear of the unit.

I ordered from Amazon USA and can't get Dasaita.com to respond nor the sender on Amazon! Anyone

that actually has this unit, can you verify that it has the connector and has HDMI Video out for backseat

headrest? Seems False Advertisement to me because the manual shows it and all of the posted pictures

on the web sites shows that the unit has HDMI out. Thanks for replying....I'm just trying to confirm that

I was sent the wrong unit before returning it.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] marchnz:
Return it cross poster. Seller bets on you giving up/dispute/return time expiring. Don't delay. Caps...
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] DWilks:
Not a cross post.....and I did return it

and I'm now reseaching Joying units, but since my truck does not have steering wheel controls, I need to first find an app or whatever, to be able to control the audio volume. The tiny dot at the top of the unit is just too hard to reach and actually see to open up the volume control. I'm open for suggestions!
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] jlbooth:
@DWilks They have bluetooth steering wheel devices that you can get to "add" steering wheel controls. Just search Amazon for "Bluetooth universal Car Steering wheel control" or something like that. I don't know how well these work but just an idea.
[MTCD  Android Head Units Q&A] DWilks:
Thanks @jlbooth, I have seen that and that may be the way I have to go to get a volume control and also track advance etc. I find it too risky trying to find tiny spots on a display to press while driving!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
There are regions where Samsung Pay isn't supported, and the app is therefore not preinstalled on the watch. As a result, those users are unable to use apps such as GW4Remap to remap the bottom button long-press shortcut to anything else. In order to help that group of users, I made a simple app that remaps the shortcut to Google Pay.

The app works by simply being a fake Samsung Pay app that launches Google Pay whenever it's invoked by the system through the use of the long-press shortcut. Since trying to install the app on a watch where the real Samsung Pay has been preinstalled will result in a signature mismatch, this only works on watches from regions where Samsung Pay isn't preinstalled.

Releases · blunden/SPayToGPay

A helper app to remap the Samsung Pay button shortcut on the GW4 to Google Pay on watches shipping without Samsung Pay - blunden/SPayToGPay

github.com

NOTE: Requires rebooting the watch after installing the app.

EDIT: Version 1.1 works with Google Wallet.

EDIT 2: Version 1.2 hides it from the recent apps menu. No other changes.

EDIT 3: Version 1.3 adds support for Wear OS 4.0 (One UI 5). Make sure to read the updated instructions on the release page.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
I sideload it with bugjaeger but it doesn't show up on my watch at all.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
So I went through the installed packages using bugjaeger and I saw that samsung pay did install but long pressing the button doesn't do anything
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
sorry mate have to let you know I tried everything but it doesnt seem to work
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
When you say that Samsung Pay shows as installed, can you be more exact? Do you mean the package name or an app with that name?

Can you show me a logcat? The person on reddit testing it for me said that it worked for him but I don't know the exact details.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
yeah the package name, not an app. Also, I'm the same person over on reddit so it's pointless to have 2 conversations using both reddit and xda, I'll keep you updated on reddit
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
It appears that restarting the watch after installing the app is required.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
You got it working now, right? :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] tatazeuz:
Working really well for me, installed it and it does the job.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
yep! thx for your work. btw I have noticed it only works when you're on the main watchfacew so If you're in an app and then long press it, it won't work. Wish I'd known that before I went to the store the other day, would've saved me from an embarrasing interaction
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Great!

Yeah, that's how it always worked. :D Having it work within apps would prevent apps that listen for key presses from working properly.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] dcsilva:
works great! but you NEED to restart the watch.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
Hi, it doesn't seem to launch Google Pay with the new Google Wallet update on my watch. Just thought I'd let u know
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 73sydney:
the packagename should still be the same, but the code has changed, and well we have some issues with the new Wallet killing contacless on phones at the moment too

https://xdaforums.com/t/working-mag...s-of-gms-17-1-22-on-pie.3929950/post-87180731

ahh teething pains when Google changes something
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Sent you a test build on Reddit. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
See the updated first post for a link to the updated app.

It doesn't hurt to launch Google Wallet once, although not sure if that's actually required or not. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] niff2005:
Thank you btw, for your work. I appreciate it dearly
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
You're welcome! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] DEMONVoz:
works good but it only works when you're on the main watchfacew
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
It's up to OS to decide when and where the shortcut works. This app just pretends to be Samsung Pay and launches Google Wallet when started.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sammyke007:
It seems to work great here in Belgium (no Samsung Pay), but after using it, my back button single press function seems to stop working. I need to switch it to recent apps and go back again to make it work again every time. Any idea?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 73sydney:
Its been noted as an issue. Its a Samsung created issue, hopefully fixed at some point...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sammyke007:
Ok, can I track this issue somewhere? Is it related to SPayToGPay or is it a general issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 73sydney:
Samsung ROM issue

No tracking
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] sammyke007:
Ok, tnx! Found multiple threads meanwhile on Reddit indeed. Waiting it will be then ;-)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Interesting. I had not seen that since I can't really test this app at all, due to my watch shipping with Samsung Pay. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] 4k3or3et:
How do you actually uninstall that app once sideloaded? I cannot find it anywhere...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
You can uninstall it using ADB (adb uninstall com.samsung.android.samsungpay.gear) and probably also through the settings menu or the Galaxy Wear app on your phone.

I uploaded version 1.2 to github now btw. It just hides it from the recent apps menu. Besides the version bump, it's the same as the APK I sent you.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] puredp1:
That's a great app thanx! Worked on galaxy watch 5 after reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Snake.:
Any workaround for wearos 4?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] hamid_valad:
Hi, any workaround for galaxy watch 6 please? 😥😥
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Like I've said before, I have no way to test this app or debug any issues myself since I'm in a region where Samsung Pay is preinstalled.

I would need logcat logs from when you try to trigger the button shortcut. That's the only way I might have a chance to figure out what changed.

Also, can you confirm that my app is still installed? Perhaps Samsung preinstalls the Samsung Pay app in all regions now.

The issue in your case was that the Samsung Pay app was preinstalled but disabled, right? In that case there is nothing I can do.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] tomskra:
Probably it is not calling app directly like before...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Yeah, I noticed that they have a broadcast receiver now that is used by PhoneManagerWindowExt. I'm experimenting with that on the GitHub issue ticket, but I'm concerned that I will be prevented from launching the Google Wallet app from the background.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
Version 1.3 adds support for Wear OS 4.0 (One UI 5). Make sure to read the updated instructions on the release page.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Thunderbolt.00:
Just updated my watch yesterday and noticed the old version stopped working, installed the new one and it works perfectly without even rebooting, thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] eagleeyetom:
Fantastic app! Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] idreams:
Hi all!

First thanks a lot for making this app! I really don't understand why samsung is not allowing to switch the button freely.

Anyways, I was trying to install the app, but can't seem to get it to work. I was hoping someone could help.

I have the Samsung Watch 6

I downloaded the ADB Platform Tools.

I can successfully pair and connect to the phone

When trying to install the APK I do get the following error:

adb: failed to install SPayToGPay-v1.3.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_UPDATE_INCOMPATIBLE: Existing package com.samsung.android.samsungpay.gear signatures do not match newer version; ignoring!]

I assumed the problem is that Samsung Pay is still there and I need to uninstall it first, so I tried

- uninstall with adb uninstall did not work

- then I tried uninstall through adb shell - that showed "success"

Now when I try long press, nothing comes up and Samsung pay also does not show anymore under in adb shell with "pm list packages".

However, when I try to install apk I still get the same error.

What can I do now and where is my mistake?

Many thanks for your help!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
There is nothing you can do (unless you root your watch, which isn't recommended for something as minor as this). This app is only compatible with watches where the Samsung Pay/Wallet app wasn't preloaded in any way by Samsung.

Try GW4Remap or SPayRemap instead.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] SnajperKRS:
I have a watch from Poland. This region does not support Samsung Pay. When I try to install SPayToGPay, I get a message that the package is already installed. On the Galaxy Watch 4 and 5 the application worked fine for me. I also do not have the Samsung Pay app in the app menu.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
In many regions it's simply preinstalled but disabled. That's why you don't see it in the app menu. You should find it if you browse around in /system/priv-app or /system/app on the watch though.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] koenah:
I have the same issue, someone a solution? Not able to use anything regarding samsung pay but also not possible to overwrite it with another app
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
There is no solution that I know if. Am I correct in assuming you can't use GW4Remap or SPayRemap because you are unable to trigger the launch of Samsung Pay on your watch?

You might be able to enable the hidden app using "adb shell pm enable com.samsung.android.samsungpay.gear" and then try to trigger the shortcut.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] malekaifa:
Hello, I installed it on a watch that contains Samsung pay. Now when I long press the bottom key it opens Samsung pay after 5 sec. If I uninstall or deactivate Samsung pay will it work or I should uninstall your package? If so how?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] blunden:
It should not be possible to install my app on a watch that already has the real Samsung Pay app installed since there would be a package name collision. :)

If you have indeed installed it somehow, I think you can uninstall it using the Galaxy Wear app. If not, "adb uninstall com.samsung.android.samsungpay.gear" should do the trick.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch 4] Mikaela_Lovett:
Thank you so much, I wish could have known about this sooner; it works perfectly!^^
[Mogul, XV6800 General] Americanmetal:
Anyway I can disable phone poping up with the green button? :p:D
[Mogul, XV6800 General] aguas:
its a lot easier just to add something like slide2unlock or some other kind of locking program to keep your leg from hitting the call button.
[Mogul, XV6800 General] crobs808:
"Phone calls people in pocket"

You phone is calling people in your pocket? How did those people get in there?

LOL, ok...seriouly, just use the 'lock' function. There is an iphone type unlocker called slide2unlock, where u have to slide to unlock it, or you can just use the native Windows Mobile lock feature, by going into Start, Settings, Today, Items, and checking the "Lock" feature
[Mogul, XV6800 General] TeleFragger:
I used S2U2 after doing the same thing you did... my bro in law called me and asked me why I called him 3 times.. he said he heard people in the background.... so S2U2 has stopped that... :cool:
[Mogul, XV6800 General] kdj67f:
I just always put the phone to sleep before it goes in my pocket.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
I didn't find any tutorial to do this, so i started searching by myself, i almost fried my S21 Ultra but it was worth it. Now i can provide a working tutorial to everyone. This works on S21s for sure, it should also work on other models

19/11/2022 edit: This method still works but it's outdated

(Samsung added an extra brightness feature)
​

16/04/2024 EDIT : directories change if you have a snapdragon SOC:

HDR: not found yet.

Brightness: /sys/devices/platform/soc/ae00000.qcom,mdss_mdp/backlight/panel0-backlight

1 - Forcing HDR: only available on HDR(10+) videos. Now you can force this yellow-ish tint and better color accuracy everywhere (yes, even when gaming)

Open a terminal of your choice:

su

echo "0 or 1" > /sys/devices/platform/panel_drv_0/lcd/panel/mdnie/hdr

For Snapdragon devices, see above in blue (HDR)

----------

2 - Maximum brightness: you already know that your screen gets significantly brighter under sunlight. Now you'll be able to force this brightness level anytime:

Go to /sys/devices/platform/panel_drv_0/backlight/panel

Take a look at the max brightness value of your screen ("max_brightness") mine is 561 (this value may change a little bit depending on your model)

Open any terminal then type this:

su

echo "YourBrightnessValue" > /sys/devices/platform/panel_drv_0/backlight/panel/brightness

For Snapdragon devices, see above in blue (Brightness)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] rogeros123:
I tried to do it on Note 10+ android 12 but stopped at the command. I have a "panel@0" directory on my device. Your comment doesn't work and changing the command directory to my "panel@0" also doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
That's why i said "it should" (to make people understand that it may not work on their devices)

The Note 10+ is old compared to S21s.

This doesn't surprise me...

Since i don't have a Galaxy N10, i can't make all the work and tell you how to do it, you'll have to search by yourself, like i did, but i can help.

Search manually or automatically in screen related folders (panel-x, panel_xxx_xxx etc...) for HDR related files (basically a boolean). Don't be afraid to do some tests and open files to change a 0 to a 1.

Once you found the correct file which controls HDR, repeat the same process, create an executable, empty file...

But i have one question (i mean two), when you execute yours, do you have an error as output ? If yes, what is it ?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Paauul:
I would like to try this. But this requires root, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
Yes it does, but it's not a drama if you root your Samsung !

Most phones have the same rooting procedure, unlock the bootloader, flash the TWRP for your phone model, then magisk
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Paauul:
I'd root it if i could. The U1 (US Unlocked) Models don't support OEM/Bootloader unlocking sadly.

But achieving higher brightness is only possible with root, right?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
Yes unfortunately, there's no way to do this without root
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Energixia:
I tried all this but I don't know if really works hdr 10. My max brightness is 561 like you and it goes via Fx, but when I retry to set brightness from the upper slide doesn't arrive at 561 but i think less.

How is it possible fix this? I would like have really maximum brightness

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
Yeah, it's normal. The brightness slider only goes from 0 to 255 and is overrode by the light sensor when it's too bright around you

Just before executing the brightness script in FX, click on the 3 dots icon and select "add shortcut". Now you can access it directly from your launcher
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Energixia:
Ok thank you, but there is a way to increase that 255 value on the slider? Sorry for the partial OT 😅
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] RangerKevin2:
Yes, The brightness slider is controlled by Android itself, so i have to make a custom rom... but i can't, I'm not a dev, i hate coding and i'm probably a bit young to learn this x)

If you have skills in programming, maybe you can try to compile a custom rom for the S21 ? ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Energixia:
Oh God, i wish it but I'm too much noob to do this sadly. I never did it and perhaps I don't have these skills 😅
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] stephen.brader:
Resurrecting an old thread but this still works on s23 ultra however the location has changed for the brightness files its now /sys/class/backlight/panel0-backlight
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Ibrohim:
I know old thread, but can you help with full command tutorial please, like when you type in ADB, I need a full command just like that, the first above method is outdated/unclear
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Ibrohim:
If for non-ADB (non-terminal) root method, simply open the activity launcher app and type brigh (it will find already brightness name) and find one with brightness control name and tap three dots-> launch as root and it bring up brightness change by numbers, if full brightness is slided in quick panel, it shows 255, now increase this number continously until it stops on max value and max brightness, then that means you hit max brightness
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] stephen.brader:
Even easier method as reboot removes those files from system every reboot and have to remount the storage as rw every time thanks for the tip and the max possible brightness is 612 on s23u
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Ibrohim:
It was 486 on my S10, now I have S20 Plus, I can't even root and use ADB to increase brightness
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] OfficialZapy:
Galaxy a54 user here.

echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/panel_drv_0/lcd/panel/mdnie/hdr

This does not turn on HDR.

Successfully written to the file though, you can check that via:

cat /sys/devices/platform/panel_drv_0/lcd/panel/mdnie/hdr

Doesn't matter if it's 1 or 0, the HDR does not turn on.

I even tried playing an HDR video (in popup view) and getting the value of this file. It was 0 when I set it to 0, and 1 when I set it to 1. HDR yellowish tint did not change at all, it was on until I stopped the video.

Anyone experiencing the same thing?

If so, what file did you change to get HDR working?

Edit:

the fix was using ADB instead of Termux.

The command in the original post works perfectly fine.

If you are experiencing an issue with your device always on display (AOD), there are a few things you can do to fix the issue. Firstly, make sure that your device is properly charged and connected to a power source. Secondly, try resetting your device by pressing and holding the power button for at least 10 seconds. Lastly, if all else fails, you can contact your device’s manufacturer for assistance.
[General Questions and Answers] CidiRome:
Hi there.

I will need to send my Poco F2 Pro to the warranty service because of an intermittent malfunction and need to copy all possible data to a temporary phone while it is away.

For a few times that I've used Helium to perform this task and was able to copy more than 90% of the important data.

Now, I was able to activate the App on the Poco F2 Pro without any problems, but I cannot get it to activate the Redmi 9AT.

It seems to me that the ADB system won't detect the phone at all (But windows detected the ADB device correctly in the device manager).

I don't know why it won't activate this crappy phone when it activates Poco F2 Pro just as intended. I know that Redmi 9AT is a few months more recent, but that shouldn't be the issue here.

An alternative would be some other way to copy the data and I've found references to some sketchy apps that advertise just that, but it doesn't not seem as straight forward as they advertise...

Any help would be very appreciated.

PS: why is google backup such a crap? It doesn't even correctly copy basic stuff that is operating system related, not even talking app data should be expected to be copied flawlessly.

Cheers.

[Android Auto General] Tim.Charlton:
“Does Porsche offer Android Auto™?”​

Yes, Porsche announced a new version of its infotainment system PCM 6.0 standard on 2022 Porsche 911, Cayenne, Taycan, and Panamera models. It brings a new design with wireless Android Auto, revised user interface, Music integration, and an upgraded Track Precision app.

Wireless Android Auto​

The core advantage of the PCM infotainment update is wireless Android Auto. Staying connected and having handsfree is important behind the wheel. There are no plans to update PCM 6.0 on Porsche 718, Cayman and Boxster. AA wireless Android Auto adapter provides wireless connection on Porches vehicles with existing PCM 6.0, but only wired Android Auto and for all Porsche model with no Android Auto in car but with CarPlay-compatible models.

​

Revised User Interface​

Say "Hey Porsche" actives the system easier to access several functions. These include news, climate control, the operating manual and in-car music streaming. The navigation system can now quickly update routes and tell the driver how much traffic are experiencing on certain roads to help reduce commute times.

Integration of Music​

Music integration allows drivers to access their Apple music, Spotify songs and podcast even without their phone in the car, as long as previous signed in Music account.

Track Precision App​

The app offers a unique range of functions and can now run through Apple CarPlay. It can record lap time using GPS data, look at speed, lateral acceleration, and braking force to help driving through data analysis.

Purchased the Premier Box based on this post above. https://aacarplay.com/products/wireless-car-adapter \ It does not work as advertised so I'm seeking a refund and looking at alternatives (Motorola MA1 or AAWireless - Wireless Android Auto Adapter). Looks like the link in the post took me to AAcarplay not AAwireless (in retrospect). Buyers beware even the instructions that come in the box do not match the user experience. This is an alpha release at best. I do see strong potential if they can improve the user experience and basic functionality promised.
