Most times those units are cheaper than the SD 625/ 662 units, so if you want to send it back to buy a genuine Android 11 headunit you for sure have to pay more.

Thanks Kri for your insight. For sure I'll return it, as i mentioned i got some major faults in the car related to k-can communications, and head unit price cost with aramex shipping 392$. The unit removed yesterday from the car and returned the oem screen. Till now thank god i didn't get the error.

Thanks again my dear friend.

Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=*
Enable Topbar.
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=

You can also do this for only specific apps:

Disable Topbar only for specific example apps:
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=com.chrome.beta,com.google.android.apps.magazines,com.medium.reader
Disable Topbar for all but only NOT specific example apps:
Code:
settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.apps.nexuslauncher,-com.twitter.android,-com.android.settings

Hi,

A search did not answer the following questions for me (or I missed something):

Do these commands persist through reboots? And if not, is there any simple way to have them be persistent, or at the very least have the commands run on every boot?

Thx!
Looks like it does persist, found out on my own while messing around with it.

what was this app you found? I have another person facing the same issue on their Android 9 right now.

Hello, I used at the time: Shizuku and App Ops - Permission manager of "Xingchen & Rikka" but you had to relaunch them each time, because it did not stay in memory (I think you had to pay for that)

And I guess your issue was solved when you moved to Android 10 right?

Yes absolutely, the background permissions have changed for my speed camera detection application, while now under Android 10, it is the Spotify APP which announces a restriction in the background but which does not exist not (Spotify works in the background for more than 3 hours on the road without worries despite this message at startup) I suppose that in Android 10 it is just a slight bug while in Android 9 the speed camera detection APP did not work not
I hope I was clear in the explanation

Hi guys, quick question which i am sure has been answered but there are over 170 pages on 2 different threads to search, lol

I have one of the 2017 or earlier AvinUsa F30 units and its so slowwww... So 2 questions

1. Are the new Avinusa models the legit Snapdragon 625 chips and are fast? video possible on someone using the new unit thats not from the manufacturer faking how fast they think they are? LOL

2. is this one good, legit, to replace my old 2017 one running like Android 7 - https://avinusa.com/10-25-multimedia...2-f83-f84.html

thanks for any info!

Hi guys

Hope all of you doing well.

I have a question. These unites come with built-in 360 cam system. Did anyone tried it and installed the cams?

If yes, how's the quality / image processing and alignment for all 4 cams.

Thanks.

I checked the update in comparison to 3.7.5 , this version 3.8.0 is from 3rd January 2020.

Code:
ro.build.display.id=Ksw-P-Userdebug_OS_v3.8.0
ro.build.version.incremental=eng.zlx.20200103.111049
ro.bootimage.build.date=Fri Jan 3 17:55:58 CST 2020

ro.bootimage.build.fingerprint=Android/msm8953_64/msm8953_64:9/PKQ1.190202.001/zlx01031755:userdebug/test-keys
You can download the Update from Wetransfer or Mega.nz.

Feature: Idrive Support for Apple Carplay / Android Auto with Autokit Adapter! (tested with wired CPC200 Dongle)
Edit: Feature: Idrive Working globally!
Feature: enable/disable switch for Android built in Bluetooth !, great if you are still using car factory BT and have troubles with stable connection.

Update/Bugfix: new ADAS Dashcam app now installed by default (new app only 3mb file size, old was 37mb)
Feature: Seatbelt warning Icon at Dashboard app
Update/Bugfix: Bluetooth App Call Back feature of "Autokit Auto Box" Adapter ? don`t know exactly what this code does.

So First of all, finally we got Idrive Support, so as for now i see no reason anymore to Buy "old" PX6 units, which i think was the only reason for still buying them.
Oh before i forget, scrolling with the controller is inverted on my E series car.

The Second thing is also a notice worth, i reported the Bluetooh issue and the workaround to disable Bluetooth to a chinese Seller some time ago.
Now they really implemented a feature to disable Bluetooth !
This is the first time i know where feedback from a customer has lead to a new feature

I also Updated my Factory_config.xml file to the latest version, with following changes to the Original one.

* Translated chinese text to english
* Added 6 additional GUI`s selection
* Added DAB-Z App to DVR App list, to allow use of DVR Tile for Starting it (only ID5/ID6 GUI)
* all known Headunits from different factory_config.xml files added
* some additional Language Support activated
* Changed default Factory Password to "0" (Zero)

I recommend to compare this file settings with your current one before updating
You can download it below, and as always Update as your own risk

Have fun with this new updates

KSW and MCU updates are two completely different things. You can update both, but you do them individually. If your unit has 4GB of RAM you can update it to Android 10 if want, but if you have 2GB version I would say it's not recommended.

All the links and guides are in the Android 10 thread here https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1699764

It doesn't matter which one you update first.

But:
1. Android 9 KSW 3.9.8 already supports controller in all apps.
2. Skins are all the same on all platforms. I presume you have ID5, ID6 and ID7 now. Android 10 only adds NBT to the mix.

Guys, does someone have MCU for bALS 1920х720 Android 9.0 RK3399 CCC?
The device doesn't support AHD 1080p camera, perhaps newer MCU will solve that issue... Thanks

PS BTW the link on the 1st page for MCU is not valid anymore.

It looks like this script was developed for the CIC interface. I have a CCC system on my 2006 E90 - will this script also work for CCC? If not, what modifications would be necessary to get it working? I did not want to pay for the Tasker app until I had a sense for what this would entail...

The script doesn't care what controller you have. From Android point of view these are all the same. What CIC and newer controllers offer is additional 6 buttons over 1 button CCC version - that's all. And even then Android can't use all of them.

Hello everyone.
Every time I start Tomtom or Sygic navigation, the Android system freezes after a while.
Maybe some of you had a similar problem?

To install, unpack the zip file to a USB stick root, OEM folder will be created automatically (overwritten if exist), then just insert the USB stick to the unit and wait a few moments for a confirming message that boot animation has changed.

By the way, I tried to speed up the animation by deleting half of the pictures. It runs twice as fast then, but the total boot time is not affected anyway. My boot time is 24-28 seconds, average 26 seconds.

I have Android 10 snapdragon 625 4G+64G 8 core 8.8".
Do you think this boot animation package works for me? If yes, will you please upload again?

Thanks

Mate... you're running like a headless chicken searching for these animations. If I'm not mistaken the animation that Mjam is using is very similar to what you can download form the theming thread I pointed you to 🤷

Sorry, RedErik if I'm disturbing you. I'm not so familiar with this forum and didn't find theming thread so that why I asked at least for a link.

But I gave you the link and pointed to the boot animation post on that thread, where you can download ready made animations, learn how to make one yourself or employ some to make it for you.
