(car audio) Parrot ASTEROID Smart
- Thread starter qs504792
- Start date
Well i downloaded 3.8.10, its newer than my Waze app was but same issue it works as an app, but wont connect to a network so wont show any map even though every other app connects fine and there is definitely is a wifi connection.
My youtube app as well says it cant connect due to incorrect time or date etc, clock etc is fine lol. i thought it was google who broke something intentionally but maybe i just broke some file on my system, id love to fix it.
can you let me know what version of googles apps you have installed? maybe this will help.
I don't have any Google apps installed anymore, I've reset my unit and only installed Waze. Maybe that's worth a try?
Well as i said everything else works, iptv, netflix, google play store, slide me store, aptoid store, tasker and app factory, and a ton more.
I use the opera browser to watch youtube and finally found that gps app i mentioned above that works great, i tested it more today.
I certainly wont be resetting my device any time soon i love it atm, its very usable.
It's just those 2 google apps that died one day maybe a year ago or so around the time google announced they dropped support for gingerbread, thats why i was shocked when you mentioned Waze.
Yes i know its odd the play store still works for now somehow thank god lol.
( i wish xdalabs had a retro app that works on 2.3.7 for the parrot asteroid and other cool old devices hint hint @xdadevelopers.)

From what i can tell most of the google services were intentionally broken by google around a year ago when they announced they were dropping support for gingerbread. i tried every thing to get them working again but no luck.
Although the guy above mentioned his waze still works
, my waze and youtube no longer connect, also the weather app no longer shows my location, instead its "unknown", but the temp still shows lolIt would be interesting to hear from other on their experiences with these apps over the last year or so.
For markets i have aptoid market, slideme, and google play.
As for gps i switched to map factor (link mentioned above in the forums) its not as nice looking but i think its better cause one you download the free maps for your country it works fine offline. :good:
At this moments i not have Parrot aplications.Market,sms igo and rest im uninstall.Work perfectly google_maps_6.14.4 with internet conections.Weather oryginal says me this same.Only temp,nothing more.I think,PAS is old but still better (music etc) like Chinese android stereo.
Does the 2.4 version support waze ?
There are a few users here that say they are using waze.
Thanks.
I'm using Waze, I don't know for how much longer it'll still be working but it's fine for now. I've posted the specific version a couple of posts back.
Good morning to you all,
I’m looking for information if someone can help me, here’s the situation,
I have a version "IGO PRIMO" which was supplied with the parrot asteroid, but the cards are obsolete, I have the latest version for android of "Igo World" with the days cards, To be able to install it it was necessary to modify the apk to change the min version of the sdk requested, installation ok the app launches etc but unable to enter a destination black screen and the keyboard does not appear.
The current version has received a new skin to optimize use, is it possible and how to adapt the original skin to the new version?
Or, I tried to embed the license file in the old apk but it doesn’t take it into account with the new cards, always asks me the old license, "aa file in license.zip in asserts folder" not the same igo version?
Thank you for your help

edit :
I decompiled the apk, can someone help me modify the files in order to change the current license to update the cards?

11I'm not sure where I found this info, but I don't believe it was here, so I thought I'd leave a little write up about enabling Google Voice Search. First I found and downloaded the old voice search apk. You will need to search for voice search 2.1.4 apk..should be a legitimate free download. However, as I'm sure many have tried and seen, it simply force closes when installed. So, as mentioned, I found a post somewhere that pointed to the missing lib...oh so obviously named libvoicesearch.so. It can be found in the gingerbread gapps zip. Again, you can just search for that...I found it on goo.im/gapps. Now on a basic level, we're done, you can have your voice control icon and a voice input button will be added to maps and the browser.
So, we're just missing one more thing...voice typing from the keyboard into any app. Unfortunately whatever it is that triggers keyboards to display a voice input key is still missing. So, simply installing Gingerbread Keyboard isn't enough to enable the functionality. I tried out quite a few keyboards and obviously they are all keying off the same thing...perhaps it's a bit to flip in some config file...regardless it's not there currently. I did find two keyboards(there are possibly more) that will present the key. One is SwiftKey, the other Kii. Neither are free, Kii only clears it's fancy prediction dictionary when not registered, so I went with it...plus it has a better voice input presentation. Only final caveat is that neither of these will show the voice key as a primary key...you have to hold another key and it will popup as the first option...so it's not too bad. Still looking for a perfect solution, but this functions in the meantime.
I guess I'll go ahead and post up a few other things from my setup that folks might find useful since I'm here.
1. Tablet Talk - Direct Text message forwarding from your phone. There are a few programs like this, but this one uses a direct link (BT or Wifi) from your phone and doesn't have to go out to some other server to store/fetch messages. Interface it okay, designed for tablets, so a bit cramped on the small screen. But seems to function pretty well. I'm connected via bluetooth and it doesn't interfere with voice call functionality at all. You do have to run a service on your phone also, but so far I haven't noticed any negative impact. Oh yeah, needs an Android phone...but we're on XDA right...so that shouldn't be a problem for most.
2.Android Weather Widget - I have discovered, along with others, that the majority of weather widgets don't play nicely with the Asteroid. Since it's gingerbread, the widgets basically think it's a phone and even when connected to some wifi network, when it can't get initial location triangulation via a cellular data network...it will never get a location lock. Elsewhere someone found a non-free widget that functioned correctly, but I'm cheap... I finally found the Android Weather Widget after trying quite a few. It's pulls location via the gps and then grabs the needed data from wifi. Works and looks great. Using it with ADW in the screenshot of my current setup. As an aside, so far ADW is working nicely.
3. PerApp - Most of the time I like to use Google Navigation for my mapping needs. I quickly found there was no way to adjust the volume on the Asteroid. It is not tied to master or notification...well it does adjust with master(since, you know, it's the master volume), but it's at a much lower level than the music so can't play nicely. Found PerApp, which allows me to go in and set up to a +15db increase for the app. Works like a charm. Also has rotation functionality(again per app) that functions great. Only caveat can be found in one of my previous posts. Make sure to turn off it's screen timeout functionality. You can't set it to 0(which in this case is no timeout) and it will default to 1 minute. You will then get an annoying clock popup every minute and go crazy trying to find out why. So after installing you might needs something like SOFFT to reset the default timeout.
4. AsteroidTweaker - Mentioned just above, I basically use this to have a reboot functionality without having to have a paperclip handy along with getting my unit to resume from my USB drive most of the time. Also has various other tweak and fixes. Worth a look. Steering wheel control people, it claims to have some fixes for that also...but I haven't looked into it much as I do not. One negative I have noticed is that when switching between sources, it get's a little confused and jumps back a forth for a second...I don't switch sources that often, so minor annoyance for me.
5. Droid VNC Server, Dropbear SSH Server(not my first choice and now discontinued, but works). Using VNC to capture screens, it's also nice to play around from the comfort of my house. A bit slow to refresh and makes some actions pretty difficult, but overall works well. Always nice to be able to SSH in and take a look around also.
6. AdAway - Host file ad blocker.
7. Mongoose web server - This is actually for running on a windows PC. Just throwing it in because it's handy. Basically just throw the executable in a directory of file you want to access remotely and start it up. Then you can browse to your pc from the Asteroid Smart web browser and download the stuff you are wanting to get on your device. Sure you could also start up the SSH Server and scp, or install and sftp server, but this is just handy sometime.
Anyway, hope this might help some folks out. I had nice helpful links in place for the apps, but XDA apparently did not care for that within my great wall of text. Not quite sure why it refused to let me post with the links... Anyway, let me know if you have any questions on things I've mentioned...6
So, i've managed to build a kernel, compile CWM and i'm in the process of compiling CM10.1
luckily my Big bro works for HP and has loaned me a VM on one of his HPCloud Farms.
my current issue is reverting to a working unit. if i replace the current recovery with CWM, i cant just put a stock rom back because the stock rom uses a PLF file. i was hoping that the PLF was just a renamed ZIP, but i dont think it is.
so, as you can understand i'm a bit wary of just flashing the recovery.img using ADB if i cant but it all back.. i've taken a copy of the mtd0 and mtd 1 devices but they're pretty useless if i cant get the thing to boot and its bricked..
i'll do some research and maybe even get in touch with parrot themselves to see what my options are..5Hey everyone,
After a few failed attempts at getting the Play Store working on my Asteroid Smart I eventually got it to work, to be honest it wasn't complicated just long winded.
I have gone through the other write up's and some didn't work (at least for me anyway) so I thought I'd share 'my' installation process, if it helps 1 person then it was worth the effort :good:
1. Install Framaroot from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276 I used 1.4.1
I followed this video to install the apps
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PD4LSdZ3OBs
This is the installation procedure I followed for Framaroot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTFVkjtxaWA
After installing Framaroot, take the little panel off the left hand side and reboot!
2. Download Root Browser Lite from here and Install.
3. Download GoogleServicesFramework.apk here & Vending.apk here and copy both files onto your SD card.
4, Install GoogleServicesFramework.apk
I then rebooted the Asteroid Smart.
5. Using Root Browser Lite, locate Vending.apk on your SD Card and copy the file to /system/app on the root of the Asteroid.
6. Long press the Vending.apk file and go to 'Permissions' I set Users/Group/Others to Read & Write access.
Again I rebooted the Asteroid.
7. Create a shortcut to Vending and login to your google account, at this point I did get an error but I just continued and logged in.
That was it It works perfectly!
I also installed used Market Helper from here to trick the Google Play Store into thinking my Asteroid was my Samsung Galaxy S3. The only issue I found doing this was that the setup screen didn't fit the Smart too well so I used 'Ultimate Rotation Control' downloaded from the play store to set the screen into Portrait mode while I used Market Helper.
I now have CoPilot live installed :good:
I know it's a bit long but it worked for me, hopefully it will be of use to others5So, today i created an Amazon AWS EC2 instance with the sole intention of porting Jellybean to the Asteroid Smart.
i've never port a ROM before and this will be a very steep learning Curve, but i'm hoping that due to the lack of built in Radio Modems and other boards that it should be easier that other devices. Famous last words eh?
i'll prob make a separate Thread for my progress but if anyone has any experience to share, please feel free.
