On 2.0.1, I could start Navigon only once. After that, it kept giving Force Close.

I took out the card and formatted it, copied back on it the Navigon and Clocksync kits and the music (which all worked, before). Then I erased user data and then did a factory reset on Asteroid Classic, waited a minute, put the card in, waited a minute, downloaded and installed Waze, waited a minute, installed Navigon, waited a minute, installed Clocksync, waited a minute. After that, I started and configured Waze, then Navigon, Clocksync. All were running fine.

Then I turned off the ignition and waited for the Asteroid to shut down. After a few seconds, I started again. Since then, Waze gives a FC, Navigon and Clocksync ditto.

I think I will go back to 1.6.1 and use Navigon, since I don't know what else to do. This is getting worse by the firmware version. I'm starting to not give a FC about the Asteroid Market...

PS: Maybe I'll try with a different card, that's my only hope left.
[General Accessories] esziszi:
Changing the card did not help. I reverted back to firmware 1.6.1.

Good: Navigon works (for now, will see tomorrow); menu, application install, application load are all faster.

Bad: I lost Waze...or did I? Does anyone have the latest Waze apk for the Asteroid Classic?
[General Accessories] esziszi:
Yep, Navigon works fine on firmware 1.6.1.
[General Accessories] esziszi:
Don't bother, guys, I downloaded the Waze PPK from the Asteroid Market.
[General Accessories] esziszi:
...aand it doesn't show up in Installer's list. Will try renaming it to .apk.
[General Accessories] xbleem:
hi

anyone find a fix for the 472 error? The same problem for me on parrot classic with firmware 2.0.1

cheer

[General Accessories] Fwnk:
Its due to limitations in Navigon.
[General Accessories] la.ouiche:
Have you been able to install it?

I've downgraded from 2.0.1 and looking for the lattest Waze.

Is there's anyone that has Waze apk to share ?
[General Accessories] esziszi:
No, renaming it to .apk didn't help, it still doesn't show up in Installer's list.

I don't think there is an Asteroid-specific Waze apk.
[General Accessories] AppleMentalist:
no
[General Accessories] Powdersurfer:
Is there anybody running the navigon version from the french website on 2.0.1. ? Or is Navigon not compatible with the new firmware 2.0.1 at all?

My Asteroid Classic is still running on 1.6.1. and i'm not sure if i should update to 2.0.1.
[General Accessories] Moreirinha:
Yes, i´m running 2.0.1 and Navigon from the french site. I´ve a problem with the music sound while running the navigon but else it´s running fine.
[General Accessories] esziszi:
It is tres interessant, what you are saying. I also downgraded to 1.6.1, precisely because Navigon was crashing on 2.0.1.

[General Accessories] miki1:
Hi guys,

i am really disappointed since i updated to 2.0.1. I wanted to ask if someone of you has the 2.0P5 beta German file? Everything was running good for me on this version and i would like to go back but i didn't save the file.

Would appreciate your help!

Thanks
[General Accessories] esziszi:
I don't have the older German firmware, but you should try the new 2.1.0, available also in German. I got it from the official UK site.

For me, it is more stable than 2.0.1, I can finally use Waze and Navigon, without them freezing on the second run.
[General Accessories] miki1:
thank you, didn't know about the 2.1 just installed it. I am still having this bluetooth issue. When i stream music via bluetooth, the connection stutters for about 5-10 seconds and then everything is running smooth. Is it the same with your asteroid?
[General Accessories] esziszi:
I don't use Bluetooth streaming. I think I tried it when I installed the Asteroid, it worked, but I didn't use it since.

If I remember correctly, I had a similar problem with BT headphones and a phone. I think it was the phone, more exactly the music player app. Maybe you should try playing music with a different app. From your description, it seems there is a buffering problem.

In the phone's paired Bluetooth devices list, go to the Asteroid's options and disable Phone audio, leave only Media audio, then test the Bluetooth streaming. Maybe the handsfree function interferes with music streaming.

If you have a hacked iGo (or other app) which is set to forcibly speak through the phone, not Bluetooth, this could also mess up audio streaming. Check the apps that play audio, installed on your phone.

Also, check the phone's audio, system, advanced and Bluetooth settings, there may be some setting which fixes the problem.

Try with a different phone.

Try with a different Bluetooth receiver (headphones, maybe laptop, if you can configure it to receive audio through BT). Maybe you could test this in an audio equipment store.
[General Accessories] esziszi:
I tried it half an hour ago, it does not stutter for me. My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S II (i9100), with SlimBean.4.3.1.build.1.4 (Android 4.3). I used Google Music for playing the music.

If your Asteroid is not overloaded with running applications or doesn't have some weird audio programs, I'd say the problem is with the phone.

Want to buy this product

Hi guys !

Im thinking of buying the Parrot ASTEROID Classic and i want to know your most sincere opinion .

I have the HTC One smartphone and i want to use the Waze application for navigation .

Im goin to connect a DOK to one of the USB ports and 3G usb data for Wireless connectivity

Is this the product for me ??? .
[General Accessories] mahg:
I own a Parrot Asteroid Classic. There is no need to use USB to share data connection. Instead, you can link your phone through Bluetooth and share data (tethering). This way allows you to use your phone as a modem, handsfree and you can also play your music.(A2DP).

Relating to Waze, I used to use but you'll get dissapointed. It's too slow, screen is too little and is not easy to handle it through the wheel (remember that is not a touch-screen).

What I love it is that embeds all that I need in a 1 DIN format but this affects the usability. It's a good product but with some limitations.
[General Accessories] Moreirinha:
I love the radio, it has some problems but for me there´s nothing compared to it (single din).

check if your phone can share the internet connection, mine does not (only phone and music).

You can also install other navigation app with off line function...
[General Accessories] rhconcepts:
I have tried alot of apps on my phone to tether through bluetooth but still not working. I did all the steps like turning the connect to internet on in the head units setting. I can only get wifi tether to work using wifitether but I cant use bluetooth if I use wifi :( I have the sprint LG Op G phone and its rooted. What could I do on my phone to get B/T to tether ? Also thought about usb but the client side needs android 4.x and higher for that to work.
[General Accessories] Bialynia:
Tethering works with the Sony Z3 Compact, if anyone was wondering. I just got this installed and threw a 128GB Transcend SD card in, works like a charm!
[General Accessories] WhiteTitane:
I'm thinking the Asteroid would look ok in my ///M Coupé but hum...many links are dead today.

Can someone tell me were we are about custom roms and various hacks? That's still Android 1.5? No way to increase internal storage or RAM? etc...
[General Accessories] Axel85:
There aren t any custom ROM for the classic,only a launcher that I have to try but seems to crash in the last firmware 2.1. I even bought the classic one month ago for my Audi a3, It s the only good 1 din radio I could find.I had a Chinese 7" 1din unit from Erisin (all the other brand are the same ****,same model with different wallpapers), but was terrible, the software makes me wanna go to China with a bazooka and destroy erisin s factory.I m happy with classic now, last firmware seems OK, and all I need is Bluetooth call, Bluetooth music, SD and USB music, web radio and maybe waze, all the rest of stuff could be done on my nexus 5 without problems

Is there a new upgraded version of the homemade asteroid launcher?

Anyone still using asteroid classic?

Did anyone get back to you, ive got a parrot classic and looking for system v2 too.
[General Accessories] galaxys:
Hopefully, someone will have V2...
[General Accessories] netwave:
Not yet, was hoping someone here would upload there possibly saved firmware to google drive or similar as we are not able to easily obtain F/W from Parrot now.

What I'm after is F/W v2.0.1_ENG_UK.plf which was the most stable build they ever developed, The last build was v2.1.1 but many users who upgraded including myself had issues with volume control after upgrading, Shortly after Parrot pulled the plug on support, inc there dedicated forums & now seem to be pursuing drone tech.

I did manage to get v2.0.1 where every function works inc external connects2 vol control adapters, however the F/W provided was in French language only, so had to revert to an English F/W build I found on an old USB drive which was v1.5.1_ENG_UK. with that build connects2 does not function.
[General Accessories] netwave:
Found today a large collection of community apps, firmware, plus SDK files I'd like to share for the, Asteroid Classic Download

I managed to retrieve the lot from old mechanical HDDs, Which will come in useful to some of you.

v2.1.0 French FW build was recently supplied to me by Parrot which I've also added, As according to tech support, was the most stable build they ever released.

Parrot deleted most, if not all of this community work when they decided to get shot of the forums, so they are unable to support us or this unit any further, Basically it's down to us now to keep the ball rolling...

Still on the hunt for 2xx firmware builds in English if anyone would be good enough to see what they have on an old drive that's gathering dust somewhere.
[General Accessories] demongorgan:
Thanks for this. Can I ask, what is connect2?

I only use it for maps and playing music stored on the drive. (Seeing as the radio signal is shocking with the unit. Tested by temp fitting my OEM head back in and picks up loads as it should)

The volume knob is driving me nuts as it has a mind of its own. If the original firmware gives no knob issues and I don't need connect2 if I only use the above would you suggest that?

Thanks
[General Accessories] netwave:
connects2 Is an aftermarket cable adapter for an Asteroid head unit, that directly connects to vehicles equipt with existing stem volume controls.

connects2 leads are available for various vehicles, therefore a parrot volume stem would not be needed providing you could find one for your make of vehicle, got mine off ebay .
[General Accessories] demongorgan:
Ok cool so not needed then. I've never bothered with steering controls. Just as easy to turn a knob I might try a roll back then to see if it fixes the issue

Good afternoon, who has left the firmware version 2.*.*, please give me a link to download. I bought a new radios (asteroid classic), found on the internet russian version 2.1.1 (as I understand it is not the latest, although I could be wrong). After installing no new version and reset to factory default settings, the applications are only maps and Waze (which no longer works on our device, at least run it, beyond entering a login and password does not start). So from the post above downloaded firmware, and pulled out of them applications: weather, coyote, fuel and others. But most of them do not work for me. If you need, I can lay out these applications with a description of the firmware from which they were taken. The firmware is also needed to pull the applications that are in it. Also i am in correspondence with Parrot tech support, they promised i will get latest version, but so far without results (wrong or not, the firmware was sent on asteroid smart).

Here's what I've found so far.

I'll do it once I find someone with a USB stick.

I did install mine and I like it but where is the gas app? For some reason when I turn up the volume to over 70% I start to hear static noise and feels like speakers about to crack or something. I didnt have that happening on my Alpine X001. Maybe I should upgrade the speakers or is it a faulty Parrot?

Anyone have this problem?

Also, I like the red light camera app but it would be nice to run it in the background so I can navigate my radio and whatnot and only pop up when Im near a light camera.

I just got mine installed yesterday.

Very happy with the sound quality for bluetooth audio and phone. I haven't been able to get the internet tethering with my Sprint Galaxy S2 (epic 4g touch) I have tried numerous mentioned programs with no luck. The only thing I didn't try was enabling "access control" in wireless tether, so I will try that, I am also going to try Cobalt Blue 2 which was mentioned. Lastly I was going to see if I could attach a USB wifi receiver and use it to receive the normal wifi from wireless tether (rather than BT).

Other than that, very happy with the unit and even more excited for the future potential of it.

*** Update, tried wireless tether again but with access control, also tried blue cobalt - no luck with either. Also tried to us a USB dongle wifi receiver. No luck there either. Really hope there is a good solution soon. I believe I read that CM 7.1 allows bluetooth PAN, but it isn't available for the S2 yet.

I feel like a fool not knowing there was a memory card slot in the receiver. I was going to get the files that the earlier member wanted but again I made a dumb move and updated my parrot first to the newest firmware thinking it was also for USA members but it was for UK. So now Im stuck with UK firmware and all of those apps were replaced with Uk ones and now Im hoping Parrot can email me the firmware that came with the Parrot originally as I dont see them on the website.

I say the best way to get internet is to just buy a Nokia phone. I think they are the easiest to connect to this radio. I have the E6 and I dont even have to go to settings each time to connect to the internet. It does it automatically every time.

Cobalt Blue 2 worked for me (on a bare bones Nexus One). Not very stable, but the general idea is there. You'll see lots of disconnects and reconnects. One thing I am not sure about is if this is using the DUN or PAN profile. It worked without the need to specify phone number or APN.
