We are still working on individual car models and diesel rev counter. Here is what's still to come:

I tried to install this on my Android 7.1 headset but it gave a error when installing. Is this only compatible with android 8.0 and 9.0 ?

Hmm... I have just checked and in fact this is API level 28 which means Android 9 or higher. I only provided graphics for this app and wasn't involved in programming at all, so this is a question to daschacka rather than myself.

I know not many of you here use the stock music player, but I wasn't happy with my original work regarding fake equaliser animation to the left of the song name... so I made a new one:

This is original animation


And this is updated one


If you are interested I have updated my Mega folder with latest files.

Hello friends,
with the help of forum member @Kri
I have created a new ID7 design. The design has cost me countless hours of work and is still in progress. All images, icons and settings are redesigned.
If someone is interested in this can leave to me a private message

See the full design and function on Youtube :

Here is the list. If you're not on it, add your car and name.

Update: sorry this project has been cancelled due to lack of time.

question regarding compiling the apk (with compile-windows.bat script)

I do get the following errors during compiling:

Signing overlay APK...

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

What I did:
1. modified my car picture and put it in the drawing-mdpi-v4 folder
2. created values-nl folder under \res
3. copied the strings.xml and arrays.xml from the values-nl folder to my newly created values-nl folder under KswOverlay-master\resources\res\values-nl
4. edited the translations text, removed the lines which I did not change and saved the xml files
5. via powershell I compiled the apk with compile-windows.bat. but then I get these errors (all the strings I editted)

Also tried to include the \values folder and then recompiled. Then I don't get these errors but only receiving 1 error:

A/ (10576): First type is not attr!

Any ideas?

Ok, so I did some tests as I never compiled any translation other than English and the conclusion is that you have to have both \values\strings.xml and \values-nl\strings.xml and content of these two files has to match. For example if you have:

<string name="factory_danwei">Gearbox selection</string> in your \values\strings.xml

you also need to have <string name="factory_danwei">Selectie versnellingsbak</string> in your \values-nl\strings.xml

So for each item in \values\strings.xml you need to have translated value in \values-nl\strings.xml - files have to match one for one.

Ok. Will try now

Let me know if that works for you.

Compiled without error now. I created the \values and copied strings.xml and arrays.xml to it.

Only issue I have now has s that the APPS menu (on the left in ID7 main screen does not work

Rest works just great.

And before overlay was it working ok?

Yes.
When I disable kswoverlay (option 6 in kswoverlay-installer-Windows.bat) the apps menu works again

Maybe I removed something from arrays.xml which caused this??
Yesterday the kswoverlay and apps menu worked. Today I only changed some extra translations

Could be something with your arrays.xml then. I can't see other explanation

[kenza750]

Tried different things. Also with a standard default arrays /strings files. Still no apps menu.

Eventually I recompiled the kswoverlay.apk with only the edited car-image and arrays/strings files with my translations. Compiling gives the warning error messages, but I just updated the system with that apk and voila: everything works (including the translations I made).

So in summary: just ignored the error messages during compile and pushed the apk to the HU.

After that, I chowned the kswoverlay.apk with:
chown root:root kswoverlay.apk and everything seems to work

Thanks for your quick help

That is a very strange behaviour and this shouldn't happen. Could you upload the complete \res folder in a version that's causing this issue? I mean with all values, images - exactly as you try to compile it. I would like to have a look at it.

See attachement.

Compiling with this res-folder does not give errors, but does not work (and APPS button on the left in ID7 does not work).

When I remove the values-folder (only keep the values-nl + drawings) and recompile, I get tons of warning messages, but the resulting .apk just works fine.

I think I know what the problem is. Your values folder contains all the values (anims, arrays, attrs, bools etc). You should only compile those you are actually modifying so only for example arrays.xml and strings.xml. And within those files you should only have values that you are actually chaining. Try that and in the meantime I will do the same and let you know.

EDIT: Did you actually modify anything in the res\values\strings.xml and arrays.xml ?? If not (and it doesn't look like) this shouldn't be included. So you are right saying that if you compile apk with only values-nl and drawable-mdpi-v4 it works because these are the only things you have modified. The general rule of thumb is: do not compile files, values etc. that you didn't modify - only drop in those things into \res folder that you actually changed.

Actually I tried different things. I also tried to compile including only \values\strings.xml and \values\arrays.xml (so I removed the anime, attest etc) together with my changes in \values-nl. Compiling then does not generate any error but the changes do not appear in Android AND the apps button does not work.

You're right: only compile changes. That works, only the warnings during compile were fearing me. But I think these warnings can just be ignored.

This is how your res folder should be prepared. This does not generate any errors and apps button does work.
