My suggestion is to download a launcher from PlayStore like CarLauncher, Agama, Vivid, FCC, carWebGuru, etc... There are many with many skins.
I would definitely avoid to use the default one.

I have considered Vivid: tried it on my phone, and didn't like it that much ( I prefer to try them first on my phone, before installing on the headunit ). Couldn't even have Spotify display in that music widget. So I actually prefer the Chinese ones. And I tried Agama, it locked up after a cold boot. So I deleted that one.....

These units also have the issue, to not keep the time when the unit is completely Shut off and Agama decides to do a license check and than because of lack of internet it locks the launcher.

Hi, sorry for my English, I speak Italian and help myself with a translator, I bought the NavRadio+ app on the PlayStore, it works quite well, but if I have the navigator running iGO-Nextgen-Israel when there are alerts, the radio volume will it turns it down very little and therefore the warning is not well understood having almost the same volume, instead on other music Apps the music volume is lowered enough and so the navigator warnings are understood well, can there be a remedy in any way? My radio is ATOTO S8 Premium.

Hello.
I am very happy with NavRadio+.
Thanks to the developer, and that's why I have the paid version.
I like to contribute to the developers' effort when I see that the application is good and I'm going to use it.

But I have found a small problem with the mixing of audios with different applications.
Let's see if it's an easy solution.
This application is installed in Mekede Android Radio M600S

With the Stok radio application, which is factory-installed with the firmware, the sound is good.
And I have configured the audio mixing option, so that other applications, such as a radar detector, mix or silence the sound of the radio station during the notification.

With NavRadio+, this does not happen.
Only with the "google maps" application, the sounds of the gps indications are mixed without any problem with the audio of the radio station. But sound notifications from other apps, like "Radar Warning", are muted without sound. I know that these applications work, because it gives a visual warning, but not audible.

If I turn off the radio application, then the sound notification of the rest of the applications appears.

As I say, it is not a bad configuration problem. With the App Stok, this does not happen. And the acoustic notifications of google maps do work. It is as if this application "blocks" the rest of the acoustic notifications.

I hope you understand me what happens. Sorry for my bad english.

I have no idea about voice commands and iGO.
You can test it with the free/basic version of NavRadio.
Better if you use my radio-remover tool to disable the original radio app that can interfere with normal functionality of NavRadio.

I was looking for an app to play terrestrial broadcasts for my Teyes CC3 android radio. I tried the free version first and then purchased this one. I have to admit that it is perfect with a lot of settings to adapt to each user. I'm at the beginning of testing, so we'll see how it goes. Localization in CZ, easy import of icons for individual stations. I'll see how the automatic switching between the alternative frequencies I've set up now will work. Good job keep it up.

Automatic AF switching will never work on Teyes units. It's badly implemented in the MCU.

Any solution for this?
Thanks

    Excuse me but what for? There are many many video players in the market and it would be better that @KoTiX2 would focus on radio app, which is rather niche app.

    SOME TIPS AND GUIDES

    - REMOVE ORIGINAL RADIO APP -​
    There are some issues due to original radio app coexistance. To avoid these issues the best option is to remove the original radio app from the system using the FYT_Radio_REMOVER/RESTORER tool availabe here:


    Extract the zip file on the root of a FAT32 USB disk so you have:
    a folder "BACKUP_RADIO_APK"
    a folder "lsec_updatesh"
    a file "lsec6315update"
    a file "lsec6316update"
    a file "lsec6521update"

    With unit powered up and android running, insert the USB and when prompted press "START".
    This will reboot the unit and run some shell commands to rename the original radio app from "******_com.syu.radio.apk" into "*******_com.syu.radio.bak" so it will not be found by android.
    You will see some linux commands scrolling and at the end you'll see a green text "update success!Pls remove device". Do it and the unit will reboot to android with radio disabled.
    The script will also make copy of the original radio app on the USB in the folder "BACKUP_RADIO_APK" in case you need it in the future.

    TO RESTORE THE ORIGINAL APP​
    Simply insert again the USB with same files in it and let the process run again.

    Essentially everytime the USB stick is inserted, it remove the original app renaming it with .bak extension or if the .bak file exist it restore it back with .apk extension.
    You can use it as many times you want.



    -----------------------------------------------------------------------​

    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)
    AF service allows the radio tuner to tune in to an alternative frequency when the signal becomes too weak. The minimum level signal can be set in factory settings (Auto Search Stop) and has been found
    that around 30 db is the best choice.
    To improve even more this service I added an automatic storing of the alternative frequencies so that every time a new frequency is received, it's added in a list.
    After an autoscan some radio stations can be found on different frequencies, NavRadio+ have an option (in Settings/radio) to automatically merge the frequencies in just one button populating the AF list
    The frequencies available in this list can be selected using the station editor or switched one by one DOUBLECLICKING on the station button.

    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. :)

    I want to share some news about NavRadio+ that missed to write beacuse of lack of free time.

    The first news is about the official latest version on Google PlayStore (2.84) where the main change is the addition of a Carousel Introduction guide that show up only at first run after installation and help the new users to set permissions, choose the radio region and explain a bit the first steps through the app.
    More than 2 months ago i uploaded NavRadio+ on Huawei Appgallery so that Russian people and all others from countries where the PlayStore is not available, could buy the app.

    In the last 3 weeks NavRadio has been rejected by Huawei Appgallery and the full version is not available anymore.
    I'm working hard to make it acceptable by the Appgallery rules and I already contacted the Devs support hoping to come to a solution soon.

    The last news is specially directed to all my betatesters.
    I uploaded a version named 2.85_Vivid that makes NavRadio act as a mediaplayer so it can work with Vivid and all other launchers using all the mediaplayer controls and mediasession.
    In this particular version I fixed the compatibility with FCC launcher that had problems.
    To use this version with Vivid launcher, it's mandatory to use a special version of Vivid too:
    Launcher-5.10.3466.apk

    I encourage everybody to test this build as much as they can with any launcher and report me any sort of bug.
    I'd like to make this version the new default one so I need it to be tested well.

    If a paid user would like to become a betatester to get access to this build, please send me by email the proof of you purchase and your gmail.

    Thx everybody who'd like to help
    😉
