G Maps nav data to Can bus ? - Android Head-Units

Hello everyone. Not sure where this question belongs so I´m posting it here. I´m looking into getting nav data out of GMaps into the can bus. Has there been any development? I´ve seen a thread from someoone feeding music title info and some other data to a Volkswagen cluster. Looking to do the same for older Mercedes vehicles. But so far no luck regarding navigation data. If there is development I hope someone can push me to the right threads.
Cheers
Chris

Joying Sofia Navigation announcments mutes radio

Does anybody know, why some navigation apps mute the current sound like radio and do not restore it after an announcement and others like waze or google maps are able to do so?
Is there any trick to make the others, i.e. Navmii work the same?
Thanks
Thomas
Hi,
It is because Joying HU only listed iGo and GMaps (plus some other chinese mapping service) as Navigation App, which in their implementation will not suppress radio / music player sound.
You can check on this thread, for a mod to bypass this

Thanks for your answer but could please be a little more detailed about what to do or at least name the post where I can find the infos to fix this since that thread is pretty large and to be honest not everything is clear to me.
Thank you for your help !

Personally I like FCC Launcher on play store and support can be found on different thread. You can use the default dialler of the launcher for your phone calls. Am/FM software I now use GMRadio instead of the stock app. You can find this a thread on here. DAB+ app look for Dab-z-player on the play store by Zoulou. Support in a separate thread on here. ADAS I can't advise as it's built into my dash cam.
As far as Navigation software I use sygic and here both on play store. Both don't need data unless you want traffic reports.
Anything else have a nose around the forums.

Thanks for your post. Where did you find that GMRadio, I would also like to try it.
Thanks
Thanks for the feedback
I'm also trying to find a link to GMRadio.
Please, more apps suggestions are welcome.
I'll get the obvious out of the way: HeadUnit Reloaded.
My Joying came with ZLink, it was extremely unstable, I tolerated it for a month until I found HUR. Fixed all my issues

As far as I understand in that thread that app is only for MTCD/E units.
Thanks for the links.
Here goes my first draft for the list. https://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Android_Head_Unit_Software
Please keep sharing more software you know. I will like to explore more "Bluetooth - Sync - Phone Call" software to replace the one I have.

It seem you have missed my radio app for multiple devices NavRadio+:
For MTC units thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...t/dev-navradio-ported-to-mtc-devices-t4048899
For TopWay based units with Allwinner T3,T8 and Intel TS9:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...its/dev-navradio-app-allwinner-units-t4024701
The app is the same for all those devices, it can recognize the device type and adapt its functionalities.
There is a basic free version and a paid version on playstore.

hi,
I tried your version but it's not working with my autoradio "Junsun" Android 10.
I am very interested in your app as I cannot (like the others) install any car launcher as they don't find the radio app (nor the phone app).
Do you plan to also take in charge other material ?
thanks

CANBUS Development

I have a PCX6 12.1" head unit. I installed it in a Tahoe and lost my internal sounds.. Doors, Low Gas, etc. I know these tones are sent as requests on the canbus. I would like to write something that accesses the controller on board and listen for these messages. If these messages show up then play the corresponding alert tone. Can anyone help me understand if the API exposes this and how to access it?

[CLOSED] Waze in home launcher

Hi all, I hope you can help me. I have a car stereo with android 12, it has a somewhat approximate launcher. I would like to ask if there is a launcher for Android with the possibility of displaying the Waze navigator in the home together with a music player. Nova launcher, Autozen, CarLauncher do not allow you to use Waze. Thank you all.

which you initially posted in Android Apps & Games and that I've moved to Android Q&A as it didn't qualify for the first forum.
As you agreed to adhere to the XDA Forum Rules when you registered yesterday, I suggest that you urgently read them and to currently place special emphasis on rule no. 5 and to post only ONCE! Thanks for your cooperation.
The one reply you've received here has been moved into your open thread.
