Installed Blackball's fRomFuture ROM, working well and it's fast but the AA bugs are still there.
Bugs are:
- Phone calls go to the handset instead of showing on the HU. This prevents the HU from being able to control calls and I have to answer and end them with the phone itself. The workaround is to either stop the Dialer process before plugging into the HU, or install Google Phone 7.0.140861421-nonnexus (noarch) (nodpi) (Android 6.0+) and set it as default dialer. Only bug then is the clock/timer on calls shows system time or something like 422031:23:59. No big deal there.
- Waze works one time, but as soon as the phone is rebooted it will halt the maps process on the HU. App still works fine when unplugged. Once this happens you have to either; clear cache and data from AA, enable developer mode in AA and start Maps from the "Back to Sync" icon (developer mode adds options here - Ford Sync), or uninstall Waze. I have not found another reliable workaround and it seems like this is a very common Huawei issue, not just P10 Plus.
Wondering if anyone else has found workarounds for these?
Hi,
Just got an Android Head unit. All was working well until I installed Bit Defender. I stupidly tried the anti theft function (Which sets a "one time" pin on the device).
Problem is I now need to enter a pin every time i start the car. Its some how turned on the android lock screen and I cant see how to remove it.
Any ideas? I >think< this is the standard android lock screen rather than something bit defender specific. Uninstalling Bit defender does not remove it.
Tried contacting the seller who advised not to perform a factory reset. Looking at other posts it seems others have performed factory resets... What (Apart from normal apps etc) will i have to set up again if i do so?
Thanks very very much for any advice. This is driving me crazy.
I also had the problem once and i had to do a factory reset. But if you use titanium backup it´s not so bad.
Screen lock Allwinner QUAD CORE T3
I did the same exact thing using Find My Device, thinking that the password is not changeable but removable so the only solution to get rid of the password each time the car starts is to hard reset it?
Hello, did you manage to solve the problem?
Hi again, I also set a password and I can’t disable it, this is bothering me a lot, did any of you guys find a solution? Thank you in advance for any and all help!

How to hard reset android head unit? can any one pls help on this.
Solution for this for me is Quickshortcutmaker. When you start the app, then search for the app that's called search suggestions. And open it.
Now you can search all possible settings in android, which often are hidden and not accessible. Try secure or something like that, to access the lock settings and there you can remove it.
Thank you, I will try this today and report back. Will it require root?
No root needed
Hey sorry to bother you again. I tried it, but the app just takes me back to PIN settings on Android settings which is grayed out and not clickable. Can you tell me what I’m doing wrong? I’m a noob and not sure what the purpose of this app is to begin with. Here is a 40-second video I shot about what I did, below. Thank you for your help, I appreciate it a lot and don‘t take it for granted.

Strange, for me it is working. My PIN bar is active, when i click on it. It asks me for my PIN.
Can’t remove screen lock
Hi everyone,
I am having the same problem - I cannot remove the screen lock / pattern set up on my Android car head stereo device. I have tried all sorts - going into advanced settings and turning off the ‘screen lock service’, turning off ‘find my device’, removing my google account.
It is so frustrating having to type this in every time the car starts!
I am currently in the process of downloading QuickShortcutMaker. Will keep you updated...
I was in my car trying to solve the problem when you posted your message, and I think I solved it!!! I just cleared credentials and the PIN went away. Go here: Android settings / Security & Location / Advanced (Trust agents), I can’t see what’s next because once you remove the PIN it doesn’t show you the menu, it just says “To use, first set a screen lock”. But somewhere in there, there is “Clear credentials” which did the job! It didn’t affect anything else as best as I can tell, but it’s been only 2 minutes since I managed to do it.
Hi!
I’m currently on quickshortcutmaker and can’t find what you’ve found. Are you on this app?
Thank you so much for your help by the way! I feel like I’m close
There is “trusted credentials” on here tho
No, I didn’t use the quickshortcutmaker, I did it through the Android settings. Here’s a video of what I’ve done, your setup may differ but this is the general idea:

Sorry wrong video on the previous message, here is the correct one:

Maybe it's a ROM issue. I use Malaysk ROM.
Contrary to the topic starter, I found this thread because I wanted to have a lockscreen. I don't like the idea that when my headunit might get stolen the thief can view all kinds of personal information.
So I tried quickshortcutmaker and I could enable it. So far so good.
However, with the screen lock also automatically came a screen timeout which is set to about 10 seconds. So every 10 seconds the screen goes blank. This is of course totally unacceptable for a car head unit. The screen has to stay on until I turn it off.
Unfortunatly I haven't found a setting for the screen timeout. And about the screen lock: you can turn it on and choose different methods, but you can't turn it off. The option to turn it off exists, but it just doesn't work.
I had this problem yesterday and just figured out how to fix this. Deleting the Credentials and disabling through the regular settings menu does not work. Everything would just revert back, so I downloaded an app from the Play Store called Android Settings X. There you can reach the hidden settings. Choose "Choose screen lock (SetupChooseLockGeneric)" to remove the Screen Lock. If that option doesn't work there is another one, 2 options down, called "Settings (ScreenLockSuggestion)". Remove the Lock Screen here. Bam, fixed! This is the only way I know of that actually removes the Lock Screen and will not revert back.

You might try Android Settings X as mentioned in my reply to the thread. Even though you have the opposite issue, i.e. wanting the lock screen, I'm pretty sure I saw a screen timeout option in this app, and since normal methods did not work to remove but using this app did, you might try it out.

Rest the device
My android head unit closes all the open apps when I turn off the ignition ( even for one second). Whether I'm using the navigation or watching YouTube, if I shut off the car and back on, all the opened apps close and I have to redo everything all over again. I've heard about some apps captures the status of the unit right before closing, and once you start the car again, everything is back to the previous status, is that real ? Also some head units have an option in the developer options to enable quick boot or fast boot, but I don't have it in my head unit, is there a way to enable that option? Is there a "hibernate mode" for Android like the one in windows? Any ideas are very appreciated. Thanks in advance
Hello friend, I have the same problem as you. Did you get a solution? Thanks
I’m new to this formus, and I’m not sure if I should post here or not, so sorry in advance.
I just purchased and installed my 10inch android 10 head unit (system version v11.1.1)
MCU: Ts9.4.3
I managed to install it on my Honda Civic 2018 and it works great. However I noticed one issue, when ever I turn on the light, or change the gears, it shows a notification that doors are open even though its closed.
I tried everything in the setting but I couldn’t find something that turns off this.
I was wondering if its possible to fix this issue or just turn it off the feature completely.
thanks in advance!
Not MTCD/E, requested mod moves to Android head units forum.
Try searching for your MCU version, or part of it to find appropriate threads, they may also hold your answer.
I managed to fix the issue after I played with the setting.
I believe this issue happened because when I installed the screen, the doors were open, and it stored this information.
To fix this issue for Android 10, Ts9. You have to delete the “stored info”.
This can be done by going to the setting> Car Setting>extra setting (passcode 123456) - this worked for my screen > app memery (click on system apps memery)
I changed more setting on that menu but I think this one that fixed it.
I turned the car off for about 3 hours then when I turned it on it was fixed.

-- Update --
I managed to fix the door option. however, for some reason I caused the bluetooth app to stop working, I can play music anymore on the headhunt through bluetooth. It seems like it deleted the information everything I close the app.
I tried resetting factory setting but it didn't fix it.
---Dont do the steps I did above. ---
Hello!
Same problem with the doors. Did you solve that?
Ok, so I am sure someone has already answered this question but right now I can't find it. I'd like to know how to set the launcher so it can remember the last app that was playing before shutting down.
For example, I may be listening to a sat radio channel when I stop for gas. 10 minutes later I am back in the car and start, yet FCC doesn't launch the sat radio app, even though I have tried setting this feature in "AUTOSTART".
Is there anyone here who can help with this. ? There's also a feature under "SOUND" that is supposed to restart whetver audio you were listening to before the last shut down. This doesn't seem to work for me, either.
Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Depending on your head unit you need to play around with the timing in Fcc.
Wait before Autostart --> try first 30 sec and reduce the time until the autostart does not work anymore. Then just go back to the working timing.
