Do you have a url of this m6pro radio?
Unbelievable that the both mics are enabled when the option in de M600S is set for back/external
Like mentioned earlier:That was always the situation as there was no hardware separation. The new models have it with the accompanying setting.
You have to use the "disable with tape" option in your case.

Any one succesful with the change of the boot logo ?
No matter what I try on the M600S the new logo is not found.
The manual says to place in the folder mycar in the root.
Still nothing.
It's a PNG which is visible for the gallery app but not for the change boot logo in the factory settings.

Anyone an idea ?
the logo must be 1280x720p

It should be an 8bit bmp, not a png

How to configure unit not to turn OFF the screen for specific or more than 1 application. Like I am using Android Auto Wireless and unit turns off the screen after 1 minute. but if I open Google Maps it does not turn off the screen,

Similar for TPMS screen goes off after 1 minute.


in previous PX5 unit there was option to add apps to white list so screen remain on if one of them is running as front end.

Hello,

How does deep sleep option works of the M600S.

It drives me nuts.

Example :
After not using the car for 3 days the radio is started immediately (no reboot)

Then I went to the store for only 5 minutes and guess what?
The radio is booting up.

Sometimes after a long period of time it's starting immediately and another day it's already booting up after a couple of minutes.

Anyone?

Irrelevant of FYT type.
It is winter. How cold is it where you live? Does a cold boot happen more often when it is colder outside?
If so, check you car battery. Is it not too old? Does it still have enough capacity? (we mostly have older cars otherwise we would not need these units)

We get these kind of questions every winter and 9 out of 10 times it is the car battery.
Please check.

And one more thing that is missing from the good old and very slow PX5

Is there any way to add OSD for radio/mp3 player, for example when navigation is working in full screen mode ?
Did you have OSD on your PX5? Which brand/model was that? OSD is normally a hardware menu, never an application option. I have never seen it on any Android device/unit
And no: you don't have that here. Quite some apps have some widget and some apps support PIP, which is not the same as OSD, but probably what you mean. Google Maps supports that and my dashcam as well and probably some other apps also, but not the standard media apps on these units.

Yes, i had an OSD with MALAYSK mod.

On track change and radio station change it showed OSD just like when incr/decr volume
What is OSD for you?
As far as I know the radio and mediaplayer mods that Malaysk made, were PIP modifications.
OSD is used by hardware to put a menu on top of "whatever" that is currently displayed on the screen. We are here talking about DVRs, Tuners, cable-boxes, media-boxes that "super impose" their menu on your TV. That is something completely different than an overlay or PIP.
So please first explain what you mean with OSD.

Edit: I searched ALL Malaysk's posts and threads where he presents and supports his firmware mods, or literally any other post by him on XDA. I can't find in any post the OSD description for apps you mean. He only mentions OSD languages in (only) one of his 1722 posts (but neither does he mention PIP in all his posts).
And you really mean a small screen? Or do you mean a "running" string in the notification bar? This can be easily doen with Xposed which he uses extensively.

Name it on screen notification for volume/track/radio station change.
You can choose location and duration in options.

For example - waze is running fullscreen, track is changed and there comes notification with track name, just like when you change volume.

Coming from px5, missing a few things.

Is there an app for brightness control via manual time or gps time ?

Is there a way to decrease min brightness ? It's burning eyes at night :D
Connect (ILL) illumination wire. That dims display when headlights are on.

Reduce min and max to your liking.

You mean TOAST Notification

Yep, that was useful but I doubt either (hal and mal) created it.

Does the NavRadio+ app do that?
Edit - yes it does "Notification Toast and metadata"

A little searching goes a long way. Crazy!

There is a way built in, but you have to be careful as you can easily just turn off the display without being able to turn it back on again.
The setting is in Settings > Factory > Backlight current adjustment (you might need a code: 5768)
This will make the whole screen darker if set up correctly. Low values can cause flickering.
After setting it, go to Settings > General > Brightness to set up daytime and nighttime brightness.

Alternatively use one of the dimming apps mentioned.

    I believe not: I just replaced the app by @KoTiX2 NavRadio+ free https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...53i-fyt-devices.4387965/page-40#post-88247931

    Only downside is, that this apps conflicts with the original FM Radio so you have to remove it. Which on its turn, cripples the FYT Car Launchers. Youcan't use the FM Widget or shortcut for the radio. If you do try it, your launcher will crash and reset to the default one.
    In the full version of NavRadio+ you can select in the settings to have the vertical buttons list on left or right side. You can also choose an horizontal grid with customizable number of rows and columns.
    In the next version there will be also a carousel view ;)

    I meant in the original radio app, none of these settings is possible. So I recommend NavRadio+ ( I guess the free version doesnt allow to change it? )
    Oh i misread your post then :p
    I edited my post.
    Free version of NavRadio have only the horizontal grid view.

    Hello,
    I own a Navifly 7862 for two years now. I always had weak microphone. At first the seller recommended to plug the external microphone. better than internal. I also used persist.btmic.gain=9 than 7 in config.txt and did work for me, better than before.
    Recently I got a new update and reset the device. As usual I changed my config.txt and persist.btmic.gain. But with the latest update the microphone almost does not exist. When talking in BT calls almost nothing is heard to caller and when I use a recording application it can record but very weak, heard from the deep... Tapping on microphones can be heard from far.
    Since then I tried multiple things:
    • update again
    • factory reset and new update
    • settings in config.txt:
      persist.sys.zlink.mic.vol=9.9persist.audio.mic.senstivity=1
      persist.btmic.gain=10
      persist.btspk.gain=7
    • downloaded the firmware directly from http://www.mekede.com/Software Download Address1/
    • tried to change ro.build.fytmanufacturer=1 or 116 and ro.fyt.uiid=4 or 2 at fyt.prop (did't expect anything from this but gave it a try)
    • used original global config.txt
      persist.btmic.gain=7
      persist.btspk.gain=7
    I also tried another external microphone. Factory setting which exchanges front/back microphone does nothing. I suppose something with the newer update and after causes that, since it happened after the update, worked before.

    Any suggestions? Anyone has similar issue?
    Thanks
    on the older models the software switch does not operate. there is a tape over the ribbon cable to the internal mic trick.

    Thanks for the answer. I don't know whether I need to hack the hardware, the internal mic. I suppose is firmware issue.
    I bought the device in Apr 2021 and had the previous update in Jan 2022. It worked till recently, it was not perfect sound but I could be heard. After the latest update both microphones, internal and externat are weak, they work very low, in levels that almost can't be heard. Toggling the mic selection option in factory settings does nothing. The seller had sent me an update from Aug 2022, I also used the one from MEKEDE site, in Nov 2022 (the last one also write that Android version is 12, I didn't know it could take 12). Everytime the result is the same...
    The hardware change was in Aug 2022, which allows the software switch to work. So both are always enabled on yours without the mod.
    Which drops quality in both due to power supplied to run only one.

    They are all android 10. The a11 a12 mod is a text setting, not an apk upgrade.

    I need help, my screen looks like this and I don't know why, how can I fix it?
    Hi,
    I had the same issue once I tried to wipe config.txt with a script in lsec_updatesh. After that I just did a new update/installation without that script and it fixed.

    Looks like the fan power.
    To tell the truth, that is what i supposed and connected it to the only fitting connector on when of the wire harnesses coming out of the device, BUT my fan never turns on, sooooo maybe im wrong.
    As well as connecting the fan to the harness you also have to switch it on in the UI. In Settings go to Device/Sound/Amp OnOff set to On to have the fan on. Looks like there isn't proper integration for the fan so they just use the switchable amp power output to drive the fan.

    Very clear, many thanks.
    Only one more question, navifly models seems doen't have cooling fan in the back. Is it suggested to have it or not?
    It is definitely suggested especially if you live in (sub-)tropical areas. The fan is really quite and keeps the temperature about 20 degrees lower (in my case).

    And with regard to "UI looks different": I just created a modded firmware based on the latest Mekede in combination with the latest core/kernel I could find, that contains all 11 launchers that are available for the several FYTs around. I currently use Nova Launcher. My current Mekede firmware (build date 18 September 2021) contains 3 launchers: 2 of them look very nice, but that is only eye candy. Real functionality is not so great. I will simply test all 11 and might get back to Nova again. I will also test if my modded firmware is "sharable". I know simply how to overcome issues, so I want to test first.

    I also use something else than the "twipe_all" or "twipe_data", that removes everything (all) or all data including your 3rd party installed apps including their settings. And only because FYT still doesn't have a good update protocol for their own apps after 6+ years.
    My "post upgrade" action is only removing all FYT related data/cache/profiles.
    But first test if that really works ;)

    Excuse me for the little OT. By connecting a smartphone to the Navifly/Mekede with Bluetooth and sharing the address book with it, does it remain in memory with the device? That is, let me explain better, if another smartphone is connected will it have access to the address book of the first smartphone?
    Hello there. I've already test it. Me and my girlfriend usually travel together so I have to choose between her phone and mine (FYT unit only connects to 1 phone at a time). So she's connected and all her contacts appear (and I store it) and as soon as I connect my phone the list is swapped and I cannot see her list anymore.
    It's a good thing. And other fact is that the unit first pairing is always to the last paired phone during switch off (assuming that that phone bluetooth is enabled).

    I finally received my Mekede uis7862 unit for my Octavia 2015, but it doesn't fit correctly. It needs to be pushed in and "click" tight. That is the system VW/Skoda/Seat/Audi use after 2013. That doesn't work and therefore it can easily fall out of the dashboard.
    I did a test drive this afternoon and as such the unit functions fine, but the fact that it is completely loose and can fall out of the dash is an extreme annoyance after having waited so long.

    EDIT: And the 5GHz WiFi reception is a big deception. I have to park my car almost inside my nearest WiFi Mesh AP, while I have a perfect MESH WiFi network.
