Software Development [KERNEL] FYT 7862(a/s) kernel MD-EDITION with FMC

[DexterMorganNL]

ATTENTION: In the MD-EDITION MS service you can't by now chose the NO-KILL apps, for that you can install @seb21 MS MOD In this thread

Thx for that: is the NO-KILL Mode a feature for the near future? Because I thought I saw it listed, on your website about this custom firmware. But I'm happy the way the current release is, stable and fully functional.

I haven't run into any issues at all, just I might want to have the car logo show again when the unit boots up from sleep. But it doesn't bother me that much, so I haven't looked into how to get this again.

At a cold boot I still get to see it, followed by the boot animation from this custom firmware.

bootanimation.zip change for tour car logo.

bootanimation.zip change for tour car logo

Boot logo's aren't in a bootanimation.zip in my backup: I found them in 190001001_com.syu.carmark and then in a folder called assets. So I'm not sure if I should just go into ( factory ) settings and change the logo again? Even though it still shows with cold boot, or create a bootanimation.zip?

I'm guessing those car logo's are copyrighted, so I can't post it here. But I found 185 logo's including one for Android inside that APK file. So I guess boot logo and boot animation, are two different things.

New release today

2023-03-21

• Removed eventual Magisk compatibility (does not work as expected)
• TYPE: FMC-UPDATE (not mandatory)

Do you consider the giving the full screen option for some apps (i.e. Google Maps) so the navigation bar would be hidden?

No friend, as these behaviours aren't kernel related, these are handled by the app itself (i.e. GMpats) and SystemUI (Navigation bar and notification)

Hi,
I would like to try out your kernel, however, I would also like to be able to revert if necessary. I have a backup of my original. That is, I have AllAppUpdate.bin and config.txt but I do not have 6315_1.zip.
I attached images of my system, do you know how I could get the original kernel or equivalent?

 

[mariodantas]

Very old kernel, I don't have it in stock anymore, please not use ans MD-EDITION is based on new kernels and new flasher, if you use it, you will not be allowed to rollback to 2021 kernel but 2022 kernel !

Was using Hal9K custom ROM on my PX6 previously and his ROM supports this "immersive" mode feature that allows non full screen apps to run in full screen. Eg, Google Map, Waze etc

Any possibility of releasing a modded SystemUI apk where it refers to a lookup file and if the package name matches, it hides the status/notification bar?
Your FMC app can be enhanced to allow selection of the app that wants to run in full screen mode.

I can't even get Google Maps full screen with my phone: it's the app, which doesn't offer the full screen option. It will always show your status bar.

Perhaps you should send a feature request to Google instead, because YouTube for example can be used fullscreen. But Google Maps not. Just keep in mind, our Android Headunit is basically a tablet of 9 inch, always displaying in landscape format.

I have a stupid question, on which I already tried to get the answer by searching on Google: but when I would enable the NO-KILL Mode, and add apps like Google Maps and Spotify to it?

Would it have a negative influence on the energy consumption of the headunit, while being a sleep? And also would it boot slower? Now I'm simply using the boot at start feature, within the original settings of the unit.

A bit late but I have been away for a couple of days.

The NoKill has nothing to do with the sleep mode. When the MCU gets a signal for contact off, it does a few things before really going into deep sleep mode (hibernate like @Moldeb already mentioned). It checks "some things", unmounts USB devices and kills the apps. Then it goes into deep sleep. Deep sleep simply keeps the memory state as is, no matter whether there are 2 or 20 apps in memory. There is no slow down in going to sleep and now slow down in getting awake. And there is no difference in power consumption either, whether 2GB of the 4 GB is filled or 3.5 GB of the 4 GB (or whatever you have).

The NoKill option simply disables the function call that does this killing of apps.

Maybe Hal9K developper had whole kernel source code to modify and compile, that's not my case unfortunately

Immersive mode requires root, which is part of Marios kernel mod.
And then you can use multiple apps from the play store to do what you want.

Edit: If the unit had contained a system-signed app that could do the same then root is not necessary, but FYT doesn't deliver that.

Hello MarioDantas.

I think your MD-EDITION is not yet available in Spanish.
Do you plan to add this language soon?

I can help with the translation

 

[mariodantas]

Private message sent fellow !

 

[03hdfatboy]

Using No-Kill w/o issue, battery or otherwise. And my favorite feature is being able to increase Text Size.
My blind butt always struggles to read the screen. LOL

Just to confirm this works with atoto s8 ultra? Looks like someone said they did and if so it handles the duel Bluetooth ok and can you use the stock launcher? Thanks

Sorry I can't confirm, I don't have an ATOTO S8 !
