I already did the configuration in all possible ways, including doing a software update, installing carlauncher without any configuration and then installing navradio without any configuration either, nor did I search for radios.
You haven't answered my questions.
You told me your tries but you haven't told me your actual config or if NavRadio was the last app running before going to sleep mode or if it was running in background.
Please answer my questions or make a video with last app running before sleep.

I only have navradio working, but I always have the carlauncher theme on the main page, then I turn off the key, when I turn the android unit back on the navradio overlaps.

I had already read this whole topic, where I learned many things and I tried what you say but it didn't work, only navradio+ application does this bug, all others work fine. I'm using the free version to solve the problem
I'm sorry but i cannot reproduce the problem.
I used both the free and pro version of car launcher.
I haven't set anything in car launcher, it's just the default launcher.
Even if NavRadio is set to autostart in its own settings, after sleep start always carlauncher.
I can hear the radio playing but NavRadio is not started because when I open it, it show the NavRadio splashscreen, meaning that it wasn't running.
The code of the autostart option in NavRadio+ and in free version are exactly the same so I really doubt that the problem is coming from my app.
Maybe it's a firmware problem? Can you try to update it?

The firmware I'm using is this one
you can make a video to see how you have it configured.

I am using car launcher pro with paid nav radio, but I didn’t meet this problem, make sure that the option” keep the launcher in the foreground during startup” is enabled in the launcher pro settings.

What firmware are you using, to experiment with this
Your issue is not related to Navradio, it is related mainly to headunit settings

My working settings for the launcher settings- extra settings- keep launcher in foreground

For headunit: settings- factory- 8888- sleep software- enable both car launcher and navradio

Then press the physical reset button on the top left of your screen using a needle

Then try standby again. This should fix it.

Another update is ready for internal testers and will be public tomorrow:
- Fix for saving station lists and settings for Android 11(need to save new ones)
- Fixed station edit button that was pointing always to current station instead of selected one
- Added single click pause function in the middle of the screen ( probably I'll add a settings option for this)
- Fix for double dialogs Windows
- Added player buttons in notification drop down window
- Fixed Player buttons for CarLauncher

@tucano101 please correct your rating on PlayStore now that is proved that NavRadio+ is not causing the issue you have.

sınav için başka bir Dahili güncelleme hazır ve yarın açık olacak:
- Android 11 için istasyon listelerini ve düzeltme düzeltmesi (yenilerini kaydetmeniz gerekir)
- seçme istasyonu yerine her zaman mevcut istasyonu işaret eden istasyon istasyonu istasyonu
- Ekranın tek tıklamayla duraklatmaya eklenecek (muhtemelen için bir ayar seçeneği eklenecek)
- Çift diyaloglar Windows için düzeltme
- Bildirim penceresine gelen oyuncu ekleniyor

After this update, the application started to crash and freeze. Version 0.2.40 was stable, this version especially when adding widgets in car launcher, after 5 10 minutes of use, it starts to freeze very seriously and hangs, I also sent a bug report, please urgent solution please

Please post a video of the problem.
I asked you many times to contact me by email but you keep changing your review on PlayStore...
Emails are better to discuss your problems so please contact me by email.

Lütfen sorunun videosunu yayınlayın.
Senden birçok kez benimle e-posta yoluyla iletişime geçmeni istedim ama PlayStore'da yorumunu değiştirip duruyorsun...
E-postalar sorunlarınızı tartışmak için daha iyidir, bu yüzden lütfen bana e-posta ile ulaşın.
Peki videoda yayınlayacağım ama uygulama üzerinden hata raporu da gönderdim mağazadaki yorumu siliyorum e-posta ile devam edelim tamam onay için istiyorum e mail posta yazarmısınız lütfen?

    I have a Topway TS10 device and I am a Navradio+ user. Manual scanning has more stations than automatic scanning.
    Is it possible to adjust the frequency sensitivity for automatic scanning?

    The app is now available on playstore:
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.navimods.radio
    or on the Huawei Appgallery at this link:
    https://appgallery.huawei.com/app/C107643913

    ---------------------------------- SOME TIPS ---------------------------------------------
    TOGGLE SCREEN NORMAL/FULL:
    - Double Click on the station information toggle fullscreen on/off.

    NORMAL SCREEN:
    - Long press on the station information popup the "ADD Station" dialog window if the station is not in your station list. If it's already in your list, it will focus the relative station button.
    - Long press on a station button bring up the "EDIT Station" dialog window
    - Single press on screen arrows <> does a small frequency step fwd/back
    - Long Press on screen arrows does a quick search fwd/back

    FULLSCREEN MODE:
    - A Single press of the arrows <> switch to next/previous station
    -A Long press on station information(center of the screen) bring up the "EDIT Station" dialog window.
    - In interface settings you can remove the big frequency in background if a logo is available.
    - In settings you can hide status bar, activate the clock and a speed gauge

    STEERING WHEELS CONTROLS:
    - The steering wheels commands act exactly in the same way as the fullscreen arrows, they just need to be setup in the correct way in carsettings application.

    FAVORITE LIST:
    - The FAV list is the result of merging FM and AM favorites, so you can have both frequencies in the same list.
    - FAV stations can be edited within the fav list but cannot be added. You need to be on fm or am list to add a station and set it to favs.
    - Deleting the FAV list will just remove the fav flag from the fm/am stations but will not delete them.
    - Deleting AM/FM list it will delete the FAV list too.

    LOGOS:
    - you can use your own station logos, you just need to know where you have them stored and browse for them when editing a station.
    - To get the stations Logos from the app you have to set the nationality of the logos in the interface menu, download and extract them.
    Once they are extracted you have to edit each saved station to assign the logo image to it.
    - The automatic assignment of the Logos is based on the RDS id of the radio stations (pi code) and the search of the logo by RDS name.
    The first method (by id) is faster and more precise but it needs that the name of the logo contain the picode of the station and for this purpose i renamed them for some of the available countries. Of course i cannot make them all and the functionality of this method depend of the availability of correctly named logo images for your country.
    The second method (by name) is less accurate and it work comparing the RDS name with all available logos. If the rsult of the comparison is 100% correct the logo is autoamatically assigned. If the result are more then one logo, a dialog window popup asking you to choose it.
    For USA and Canada the assignment of the logo is is done by searching the frequency of the station in the logo file name.

    AF (Alternative Frequencies) handling: (Doubleclick to switch between stored AF)
    The RDS AF function allow the radio tuner to tune in to an alternative frequency when the signal becomes too weak.
    On normal car stereos this function use 2 PLL receivers to hold the old frequency until a new one is found y the second PLL.
    On all Chinese units it's used just one PLL and the function is controlled by MCU and radio chip it self. So when a station become too weak you will notice a frequency scan that will look for another frequency with same station RDS ID code. The scan quality depend on many factors and none of the Chinese units have implemented this function correctly.
    Only the MTC device handle it a bit better than others.
    On FYT units the AF functions is totally wrong and should turned off.
    NavRadio can only switch AF "ON" or "OFF", It cannot improve this function because, as i said,it's handled by MCU.
    Anyway NavRadio can help a bit the users storing the Alternative Frequencies manually: dragging the frequency from middle of the screen and dropping it on to a station button.
    You can save up to 9 alternative frequencies and they can ve selected in the EDIT window or switch between them double clicking on the station button or sliding up/down in the middle of the screen.

    NOTES:
    I'm the only developer of the app and I work on it every single day for some hours a day.
    I try my best to develope the app at best of my possibilities and I wish at evey release that it is bug and crash free.
    This is very hard to achieve, even if I have some very good friends that help me testing it.
    I'm really thankful to them for their help and support.

    Thank everybody who beleive in my work and thanks for understanding. :)

    @KoTiX2 you have an excellent product for the Topway based platform, do not explode your mind trying to port the app to FYT (I'm talking against my own ideas as I have FYT units) keep doit the great job that you do with NavRadio and making happy your customers.

    Anyway many thanks for all the time you spent tryng to find a suitable way to port the app
    I have a little good news:
    Finally I'm now able to set frequency and receive rds infos from my fyt unit and show them in NavRadio+ :D
    I found also a small trick to avoid having all native libs included in the app.
    There is still a lot of job to do but I'm pretty happy that something is finally moving in this unit. :D

    hello, do you have any news?
    The only news is that I now have an 8227L unit and a px5 s32f0 one.
    I'm working on it but it's not an easy job
    4
    @KoTiX2 Do you plan to support UIS8581A?
    Right now i have no plans..
    I will try to add support only to new and very diffuse units.
    I say "TRY" because it's not ensured that i'll be able to do it.
    MTK units for example are a pain in the a** for me because of their use of native libraries that work only on system apps.
    3
    Is it possible to build support in for the FYT Intel Airmont SC9853i units eventually?
    Maybe in a future, right now only TopWay based units with sc9853i are supported.
    I will make a poll of which unit to support next as I need to buy one of these units to start developing sw for it.
