I have tested this application and unfortunately it does everything except what I really want - You can not control the "wireless stereo" ON/Off with it. - Under WM6 on Athena the Audio2BT turns on voice recognition, Audio2Device does nothing.
Options below work ok - audio GWCC_on, and Radio GWCC off

In the meantime - any way to record macros? - I prefer to have an icon on the desktop doing just one thing, not to choose from the list - it is difficult to use the list in the car when I want to turn it on quickly.

You can use BTIO (search forum) for easily turning BT on/off, doing BT audio, etc. Give you a little icon the your phone that you can manipulate BT services with.

Video:
Possible problems :
The serial number is replaced by: Unknown or 1234
Solution :
To get your serial number, try:
1. Connect to Wi-Fi (you can create a WiFi hotspot in your phone and connect to it).
2. Make bluetooth pairing to your phone.
The serial number is generated by the MAC addresses of the WiFi and bluetooth modules.
3. Reboot after that the device 1 or 2 times!
You can reboot in the Settings Mod and click on the circle icon in the upper right corner. The reboot menu will appear.
Check if the serial number appears.
The Bluetooth application says that there is no license.
Solution :
1. Connect the device to WiFi to the WiFi access point of your phone, check whether the Internet is working on the device, for example, launch a browser and see if the Internet is working there.
2. Reboot. You can reboot in the Settings Mod and click on the circle icon in the upper right corner. The reboot menu will appear.
3. After rebooting, connect to the internet. Go to the bluetooth application and try to press the buttons there or click on the inscription where it is written that there is no activation.
Sound does not work or shows I2C error on every reboot
Solution :
Your DSP is incorrectly configured in the factory settings.
Go to Settings Mod - Settings related to the car - Engineering menu (password 0000)
and set up the DSP there.
My settings (you may have other settings !!!)
1. DSP Settings - Audio IC Type - BU37033 Series
2. Application Settings - Ess DSP or ROHM DSP
The work on the full version of the firmware mod is completed, the first release of version 1.0 is made. Please read the information under the spoiler "FULL Firmware Version Information:"
I ask you to excuse me in advance if I don’t often answer in the topic, since I’m physically not enough for all the time and I ask you to understand me! And we will help other users if you know the answers to questions!
Thanks @Malaysk. As Beta tester I am testing your ROM since some weeks on my Erisin (Leima MCU) and everything is fine!
Awesome. I have one of these units and very eager to test. However, I have some questions I hope a user can anser:
1. I have no original software for backup. Is it available somewhere in case this doesn't work?
MCU: S32F0_XinRC-18-W_20200812-09:08_HD1_7708_D_FF_C8
APP: PX5C_C54_HA1_Xrc2-10-EN_2020-06-05-1726
2. If I take the power off of it, will it remember equalizer sound settings?
3. I always get a popup that my usb device want access. I can check a box to remember the setting, but after each boot it asks again... Is this solved?
4. Steering wheel controls programmable?
Thanks.
Hi Everyone
I've got the MCU down here, but i can't understand what Firmware i have to install, first or second?
Thanks!
Installed... thank you for the great work you have done. I have a problem with my canbus (ft-ss-05) now not available in the settings and those available lack the functions. Why are there no canbus models compared to the original Rom?

I try to answer to your questions.
1) You need a "backup" only of the Android Part. The MCU is untouched by this ROM. You need the reinstall the original SW. I don't know if this is straight away, after the Custom ROM installation. In any case, Here you will find several original firmware, search for the one for you unit:
https://yadi.sk/d/lBxQipoetfkMLw
You can find also a thread here: https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=973677&st=0
2) If you remove the fixed +B, typically all the settings should be lost. I am not sure about the equalizer.
3) This happened also to me before I had installed the Malaysk ROM. It is a bug of the original FW. With the Malaysk ROM this issue is gone.
4) Only resistive for the moment, as the original FW one.
Installed, works amazing, I have only a big issue: using spotify, when i play next manually with swc (resistive) the song changes, but i have no audio, i need to press pause then play to get audio again... If the songs changes automatically after reaching the end no issue...
No one tested the ROM with YUNHT MCU?
What happen if i flash it? don't want to brick the unit

Thanks for all your help (and getting this organised).
Unfortunately I don’t see any xinrc roms there. But I’m too curious not to try. The confirmation checkbox for usb has been bugging me a lot.
I’ll try soon and report. Fingers crossed!
Great work! My unit has a 800x480 display, will the custom ROM work just as well?
Does this rom works with the same radio PX5 MCU S32F0 RK3368 with Android 10?

Rats! Is there a way to backup my current firmware so that if anything goes wrong I can go back?
did some testing today. Fcc launcher works. I miss the nice volume bar of the old roms. Where can I setup the delay for sleep mode? .Radio will not turn off.

These radio works differently from MCU MTCD based one with regards to the sleep philosophy. The are going in stand by and they will completely switch off only when the car battery goes under 12 volt. This is done to have a fast boot

really a great job installed without problems everything much smoother and faster I was wondering if it was possible an automatic dark mode on the whole system as it happens on smartphones for all apps to solve the problem of reflections in the car the apps would be more visible thanks a lot of compliments
Hi,
"DEMO VERSION" is still displayed after installing the software How do I remove it?
Attached app FlowStarter.apk allows to start an Automate flow (https://llamalab.com/automate/) which has to be defined in file flowstarter.cfg
Required steps:
1. Install the apk.
2. Extract the file flowstarter.cfg to the internal storage (root, no subfolder)
3. Copy the URI of the Automate flow into the file flowstarter.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. Set FlowStarter as navigation app in the Android settings.
5. Assign a button of your steering wheel to GPS
AppStarter.zip contains a sample flow. Use this for for testing because you can use it with the free version of Automate.
You just have to maintain the list of apps:
You can find the package names with the app QuickShortcutMaker:
Don't change the keys/texts "Navi" and "Home" but set the package names of your launcher and your navigation app. Add and change the entries for your multimedia apps (Blackplayer, Podcast, Radio, Bluetooth and DAB-Z are only samples).
Code:
{"Home": ["altergames.carlauncher"],
"Navi": ["com.alk.copilot.mapviewer"],
"DAB-Z": ["com.zoulou.dab", "IGNORE"],
"BlackPlayer": ["com.kodarkooperativet.blackplayerex"],
"Podcast": ["com.bambuna.podcastaddict", "com.bambuna.podcastaddict"],
"Bluetooth": ["com.ts.MainUI", "com.ts.bt"],
"AUX": ["com.ts.MainUI", "com.ts.main.avin2.AuxMainActivity"],
"Radio": ["com.ts.MainUI", "com.ts.main.radio.RadioMainActivity"],
"HU reloaded": ["gb.xxy.hr"],
"EasyConn": ["net.easyconn"],
"AutoLink": ["com.suding.speedplay"],
"DAB": ["com.ex.dabplayer.pad", "IGNORE"]}
You can set the activities which should be considered as second parameter. "com.ts.bt" includes all activities starting with com.ts.bt.
Alternatively you can use IGNORE as second parameter which will start the app just with package name.
FlowStarter.apk is now starting Automate accessibility service if it's not running. You can add FlowStarter to autostart in you launcher (e.g. Agama).
On Junsun V1 pro:
You can set autostart of Navi in factory settings (code 8878, section Others). Please note that you have to re-set FlowStarter as navigation software after first reboot.
Let me know if it works on your device. I tested on a Junsun V1.
How the sample flow works:
- Single press will open navigation if no media app was launched before.
- Single press will open home if navigation is in foreground and no media app was launched before.
- Single press will switch between media app and navigation if a media app was started.
- Double press will always open home.
2022/03/20: Updated FlowStarter.apk. In some cases the apps seem to not stop completely. This may improve reliability.
2021/04/11: Updated the flow. Now the current activity is considered for the media app. This is important for the Junsun BT Music App to switch back to music control and not to the device connection screen.
2021/04/12: Configuration file now with file extension .cfg. Added error handling in FlowStarter.apk.
2021/04/15: Corrections in sample flow. Now the last activity of an app is captured correctly. In case flow can't launch activity (activity only app internal) previous activity gets started.
2021/04/16: Updated sample flow. Now it's possible to define activity which has to be considered.
2021/04/19: Added advanced flow AppStarter_with_ServiceRestart.zip
2021/04/30: FlowStarter.apk can now launch several flows. Just add additional lines to flowstarter.cfg
2021/05/10: FlowStarter.apk starts accessibility service if required.
2021/05/32: Removed AppStarter_with_ServiceRestart.zip because FlowStarter.apk starts the service if needed.
Updated AppStarter.zip
2021/10/21: Added keyword IGNORE to app list which solves the problem an app can't be started because the app doesn't exposes its activities. IGNORE can also be used to start an app always just with package name.

I don't have root, I have one of my buttons set to cycle and start playing 3 media players and another set to cycle 5 other apps(not media), if that's what you mean.
BTW I didn't create the original app I just adjusted it to support rotating apps. My version is on the last page.
Added AppStarter_with_ServiceRestart.zip. See first post for details.
Resume Automate service (and other apps) after head unit Junsun V1 was in sleep mode:
Please note: Adding Automate accessibility service and/or Agama Car Launcher to qb_list.xml may lead to a head unit never stays in sleep mode and always performing a cold boot. So I suggest to just add FlowStarter to autorun of your launcher.
On Junsun V1 head unit you can set in file
/vendor/etc/qb_list.xml which apps should stay in memory during sleep mode and getting reanimated at wakeup.
After reading this please have a look on

because that's another approach to copy the file.
Perform the following steps to replace the file on an non-rooted device without a laptop and without an USB cable - just your mobile phone is required!
You can copy the file from /vendor/etc folder without preparation. At least with my favorite file explorer MiXplorer. I added one xml tag for the Automate accessibility service and one line for Agama launcher. The correct syntax is easy to understand. That are the package names:
"com.llamalab.automate"
"altergames.carlauncher"
You can use QuickShortcutMaker to get package names of your apps.
Please keep a untouched version of the file as backup!
Enable USB debugging in developer options on the head unit. You have to click several times on Android build number to make the developer options visible.
Install ADB remote shell on your smartphone. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgutman.androidremotedebugger
Start a hotspot on your mobile phone and connect the headunit via wifi to it.
Start ADB remote shell on your phone and connect to the IP address of the Junsun device. You can get the IP in the wifi settings of your head unit or you install an app on the head unit which can show you the IP.
Enter commad to get superuser access:
Code:
su @#zxcvbnmasdfghjklqwertyuiop1234567890,.
If that worked the terminal prompt will change from $ to #.
Enter command to get read/write access. Remount command will by default remount the /system partition:
Code:
remount
Maybe the session gets terminated. That's not a problem. Just restart ADB remote shell and connect again.
Enter command to copy the file. In this case the modified file is in Download folder on the head unit.
Code:
cp /storage/emulated/0/Download/qb_list.xml /vendor/etc/qb_list.xml
If it doesn't work the first time and you're getting error that you don't have write access just repeat the steps.
You have to reboot the device (reset button) to enable your new setting.
Enjoy an active Automate service after sleep and an immediately present launcher.
Maybe, because adding Automate or Agama to qb_list.xml may prevent your head unit to enter sleep mode and will result in always performing a cold boot.
Add my flow starter app (see first post) to Agama autostart and enable the checkbox "autostart after sleep" to restart the music app after device was in sleep mode. So you need not to add all your multimedia apps to qb_list.xml. DAB-Z doesn't work after sleep mode if it was added to qb_list.xml but gets stated by my Automate flow without trouble.
FlowStarter.apk can now launch several flows. Just add additional lines to flowstarter.cfg file:
The attached Automate flow can copy a file to a protected partition/folder on a Junsun V1 device.
So this is an alternative procedure to:
Use SWC to switch between Navi and Radio
Attached app FlowStarter.apk allows to start an Automate flow (https://llamalab.com/automate/) which has to be defined in file flowstarter.cfg Required steps: 1. Install the apk. 2. Extract the file flowstarter.cfg to the internal storage (root...
forum.xda-developers.com
Please be aware that the flow may stuck on command execution but the file copy should work. Just check with a file explorer if the file was copied successful and stop the Automate flow manually.
FlowStarter.apk can start the Automate accessibility service to simplify the Automate flow.
This means there is no need to add Automate to qb_list.xml because this may disturb your head unit entering sleep mode.
Additionally there is not need to use the more complex flow inside AppStarter_with_ServiceRestart.zip.
Updated the Automate flow (AppStarter.zip in first post): Now an already running media app gets recognized.
E.g. if you start your media app directly after device startup and you are faster than the autostart of FlowStarter app the media app of your previous session gets not started anymore.
Updated the Automate flow (AppStarter.zip in first post): Now you can use the keyword "IGNORE" if an app should be started just with its package name. This helps if an app doesn't expose its activities and solves the bug an app seems not to be considered even if it was added to the app list.
Code:
...
"DAB-Z": ["com.zoulou.dab", "IGNORE"],

Hey, I don't know if you might be able to help me, but do you know if there is a way to add a sleep mode timer ?
On my Junsun Head Unit, I only can set Sleep Mode to On or Off, but not something like "Sleep mode for 2 days, then shutdown"

Sleep mode will keep you head unit in an kind of hybernation mode for around 3 days. You can't specify the number of days - at least if we are talking about Junsun V1 pro.

Please clear app storage or uninstall previous version to avoid force close. Sorry for that!
Installation/configuration on Junsun V1 pro:
I know real men don't need to read manuals but have a look before asking stupid questions. ;-)
- Install both! apps ('AppSwitcher' and 'AppSwitcher Starter')
- Enable automatic start of navigation app in factory settings and let your device reboot
- Open app 'AppSwitcher' and select your navigation and multimedia apps'
- Set 'AppSwitcher Starter' as navigation app:
- Configure one button of steering wheel to start navigation app (if not already done)
- Optional, if you're using not the stock launcher: Add 'AppSwitcher Starter' to autorun. This will start AppSwitcher even if the head unit misses to start the navigation app after sleep. This step is optional and shouldn't be required.
--> Basic configuration completed
Further settings
Run media app on service start:
Last used media app will be started as soon as 'AppSwitcher Service' gets started. Exception: Another media app or navigation app is already in foreground.

Is it for 8227L chipset mtk devices ?

It is not tied to a specific chipset. The app reads the device log to identify if the steering wheel button was pushed.
So you could check that with a device log reader app like Logcat.
On Junsun devices you can find a entry with TAG 'MainUI' and message 'nDealPkey = = xxx' for each button press in the log.
I'm asking that because Junsun has similar boards like mine ALPS device with AC8227L chipset.
Added video of alpha app version to first post.
Added APKs (1st post) and installation/configuration instruction (3rd post) .
New version 1.1 alpha available. Please download from 1st post. Major changes are listed in 2nd post.
Please excuse my scepticism.
How can we make sure that your application is safe?
1. The application is not on Google Play.
2. The code is not open source.
3. You have no link to a repository.
Other than that, great idea keep up the good work.
A functionality for trying to connect to the latest wifi hotspot, or to try all previous used networks?

Thank you for your feedback. You're right but I just started with Android app development recently. Github will come, PlayStore maybe never. In meantime feel free to use an (online) decompiler as you would have to do for a lot of apps provided here on Xda. On the other side be sure the Chinese pre-installed enought risky stuff on the head units.
I thought about the possibility to trigger system scan for wifi networks to get the internet connection faster.
FAQ
Why is the starter a separate apk?
Junsun head units check if the navigation app package is already in foreground. If that's the case home screen gets displayed. If we set 'AppSwitcher' as navigation app it would not stay in foreground. Here the relevant coding of MainUI:
What does the different log listener log entries mean?
AppSwitcher is listening to different log messages of the Android system log. We need not the enter the whole message, a substring is sufficient. But we need to consider spaces.
- Short button press log entry
The most important log entry. If this gets recognized the AppSwitcher dialog gets opened or the next app to start gets highlighted.
On some head units we can use the message which gets written after we release the SWC key after a short period of time.
- On button press log entry
This message will only stop the countdown and AppSwitcher is waiting for the next configured log entry.
Usually we configure a log message which gets written as soon as we push down the SWC key.
- Long button press log entry
AppSwitcher will return to home screen or close (cancel) the dialog.
If possible we configure a message which gets written when we release the SWC key after a long period of time.
What is DuraSpeed?
DuraSpeed is a proprietary tool from MediaTek restricting and closing(!) background apps and services to free memory and so to make it available for starting apps.
AppSwitcher can set the properties to turn DuraSpeed off in case you're struggling with closed services / apps and want to give back control to Android.
AppSwitcher dialog isn't shown
On some head units you have to provide permissions manually. According to my experience on a Junsun V1 pro (with MTK8259/MTK8257 CPU) the authorizations granted automatically.
1. Ensure that the AppSwitcher service is running. We should see the AppSwitcher icon on top of the status bar and a notification in the status bar.
2. Check if AppSwitcher has permission to appear on top of other apps. You can provide the authorization in "application settings".
3. On some head units AppSwitcher doesn't get authorization to read the Android log. In this case you have to grant authorization via ADB:
Code:
adb shell pm grant com.thf.AppSwitcher android.permission.READ_LOGS
How display dimming works
Screen dimming is realized by "painting" a semi-transparent overlay on top of the screen because we don't have the possibility to access display brightness on system level.
Some apps don't like to get overlayed and so Google PlayStore shows a warning message. AppSwitcher is pausing the overlay if Google PlayStore is the app in foreground.
If you're using an app which doesn't work well whiles it's overlayed, let me know.
What is Automate?
Automate is a powerful alternative to Tasker...
Automate for Android ⋅ LlamaLab
Create flowcharts that make your Android smartphone or tablet perform tasks automatically.
llamalab.com
...which allows to execute tasks, start apps, change settings, change connectivity (wifi, hotspot, Bluetooth,...) and much more.
Unfortunately our head units are killing the Automate service during sleep and not enabling it after reboot.
AppSwitcher can re-enable the Automate service and trigger an Automate flow.

Only minor changes but the UI bug was too painful for my eyes. (-:
Hi Thorsten,
thanks for this app.
This is exactly what I was looking for. A brilliant and creative idea to use the navi app as a trigger

Thank you very much! After ~90 downloads I'm really happy to read such a great feedback.
Wish you good and safe rides with the app.
Hi Thorsten, I found your app through your reply in other thread regarding fyt. I test it on teyes cc3, it works as you describe. I assign the 3rd party dvr app to steering switch long press. However I wonder if next version could be expanded to not only replace navi app/button but other button/function as well, or when assigned button press it will cycle to different apps. And one more thing I’m pretty sure I downloaded the latest version of your app but the app info still showing version 1.3 instead version 1.4. Thank you for the app.
