[Q] Bluetooth support and pie controls - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
My Nexus 4 was working just fine on stock jwr66y, bluetooth connected in car and worked as expected.
All ota updates after that and zips have totally stuffed it. Just connects for 5 seconds then disconnects for 5 seconds, repeat.
I now have pa 3.99 rom installed which goes back to Android 4.3 so the bluetooth works ok, but I can't for the life of me get out of pie controls. I take out full screen, go into settings and set Trigger area to none (disable) and nothing happens, no controls at the bottom of the screen. Doing a reboot does not restore controls and I have to revert to pie controls.
Anyone got any suggestions, I can live with pie controls but Google just advise that they cannot guarantee bluetooth will work with every installation. It was working fine guys, you broke it.

4.2.2 notification bar problem

OK. To start with, my OTA didn't show up so I force stopped and cleared data of one of Google's services responsible for holding the OTA information. After that everything went smoothly. However, I noticed that my notification bar behaves just bizzare. When I'm trying to pull it down, it sometimes goes down, and sometimes just goes up (this only occurs when pulling down with 2 fingers). Now, it just stopped scrolling down at all... No response, totally. The screen is all fine, testes that in touch localization in menu. OK, after restarting the phone, it works again. With being pulled with only 1 finger everything is fine, but with 2 fingers it still glitches somehow. I wish I could go back to 4.2.1 now...
PS. Am I the only one that noticed there is no voice calls and ringtone volume control in lockscreen?
I'm on 4.2.2 (ota update). No major problems with the notification bar but it just doesn't feel as smooth as it was on 4.2.1. A bit jerky at times.
i noticed that too, but if i pull it down slowly it gets stuck right up to the part that shows the date, if i pull it down like i normally do, it's just as fast.
is this the issue that you're seeing or is it something else, try pulling it down quickly with your thumb
hope this helps
I had this issue when I flashed one of the versions posted in the Development section. I just flashed the official stock image and no longer have this issue.

thanks for the 2 finger pull down, i didnt know it toggles the shortcuts pane.

Marshmallow Nexus player Issues. Can anyone confirm?

Confirm so I know its not just me?
* Bluetooth in general seems to stop responding altogether after awhile. Restart required to get it working. Seems most noticeable when trying to play using a gamepad (NES30 bluetooth gamepad)
* sixaxis pair tool cant seem to configure driver. retries about 3 or 4 times, eventually gives up and restores bluetooth state
* can no longer change default launcher. HALLauncher for instance, does not let me use it as default launcher anymore.
* bluetooth seems to momentarily freeze. Using my nexus remote, sometimes remote stops responding but a usb connected keyboard still works even during this period. remote eventually goes back to normal.
(for the record, I am rooted, though alot of these issues still occured whether rooted or not.)
i cant answer about the sixaxis tool or the default launcher issues but ive been running all weekend with zero bluetooth issues.
honestly zero issues at all but i mostly use it for kodi and youtube.
in general everything is pretty responsive and chromecast mirroring from my gs6 is a lot better.
Can you clear defaults of leanback launcher to hopefully set the default launcher when you press the home key

Home and recent button disabled

Hi all,
After hooking my phone up to a car stereo, the home and recent key stopped working.
Let me explain:
I just bought a Pioneer avh-x5800dab, with a built in feature that makes it possible to mirror your android device to your head unit. When i unplugged my phone from the head unit, the recent and home button stopped working.
The recent button lights up when i press it, and i can wake and unlock my phone with the home key. Also, both keys works in TWRP. So to me it seems android has unmapped the keys.
Back key works as normal.
I am running KryxOS R1.3
What i have tried so far:
Wipe cache and dalvik.
Uninstalled all apps related to the pioneer head unit.
Dirty flashed the rom.
I would prefer not to clean flash the rom again. Any help and suggestions would be hugely appreciated!
Similar issue
Not sure what causes it but im alao having a similar issue. Home buttong sometimes works on and off but my recent windows key does not register. It recognizes when i tap it but does not work. Also notifications no longer show up at the top.
Having the same issue
Having the same issue with the home and recent buttons, but mine isn't related to the Pioneer software. Notice that I suddenly can't uninstall apps from within the app manager, so I'm wondering if it's related to a security setting. Can't find anything that looks out of place though.

Possible Fix
As I was reviewing some of my settings I got a random notification that I couldn't review a setting because my password had expired. I went into Settings -> Lock Screen and Security and set a new PIN for myself. Home and recent buttons work again and I can delete apps. Weird. Hope it continues to work.

Issues with chinese HU

Hi Everyone!
I've recently installed a Chinese (Funrover) Android HU into my 7th gen Honda Accord. For the first few weeks everything worked fine. Then I tried to install the rearview camera that came with the HU. On the first try before putting the camera to it's final place I tested it and it worked fine. After I put it in it's actual place and tried again, it didn't work. The camera lights up, so power is fine but the HU doesn't switch to the camera's feed.
Next day I had some issues with the HU - the sound just went away. This still happens randomly.
And now recently the HU started turning off randomly, sometimes it doesn't even start up when I start the car. It does work sometimes though. Also it sometimes tries to power on en-route, but usually fails and goes blank again in a few seconds. I noticed that this usually happens when I'm braking and also at the same time the car's original built-in bluetooth unit (which I've never used so I'm not sure how it works) would flash it's leds as if it's getting power from the same source.
Does anyone have any ideas what to check / how to fix this?
Thanks in advance
(let me know if you need any more details)

MCX-1705AD Non functional

Hi,
I've been looking for support for a chinese headunit MCX-1705AD without luck. This unit was working fine for 3 weeks, bluetooth, radio, reverse camera was all working fine and now all the apps either open and then close or become unresponsive. I have tried to access infotainment from settings to reset it from there but the screen closes like the other apps. I have also soft reset the device from the front panel which does not do anything. I assume I need a firmware upgrade and I have tried contacting the seller who are useless. I hope someone on here han help me.

I have the same model and problems as you. I already solved the problems and the head unit is working normal now.
1. Turn off the player by turn car key to off position.
2. Frequently touch the screen with 5 fingers at the same time turn on the player by your car key to on position.
3. On your screen conner will show detected and the player go to recovery mode you have to wait for a few minutes until the system reboot.
