Cardboard requires a gyrometer. The Galaxy Prime has a different set of tools for tracking motion. As a result, Google Cardboard won't install and some apps won't work. However, a lot of apps do work as long as you are okay with the default settings. Just download and run them without installing Cardboard.
Also have a Galaxy Prime, so I'm looking for a solution too. But the lack of a gyrometer is the problem.
ADDED: If you visit the mirror site for Google Cardboard (Google it) you can download one of the earlier APKs and install it as a 3rd party app (you have to set your phone to allow unknown apps in the security settings). Install as a default device. This won't solve the gyrometer problem, but it will let you open apps that require you to have Cardboard to open them.

Roadrover Changan S model root/unlock?

Hey, i've recently got my new ford fiesta with the above android headunit installed.
The unit is locked and without a google play. The advanced options are blocked and i was wondering if the device can be rooted or unlocked? I found little to no information on the subject.
Thanks!

if you have any app that wants you to rate it on google play you can use it to get the playstore installed and then via browser link get google play services. from there you'll be fine

same issue for me.
I can't install/update apps. I tried to install google play services, without success. There is a way to unlock the device?

Hello there! Anyone had success on updating this device? Any information would be appreciated

Google assistant "My Day" Feature

I saw an article today on Android Central which explained various features of Assistant on Pixel phones.
I couldn't find "My Day" feature in 6P. Anyone knows if that feature is pixel exclusive?

Feature is there on mine...after hitting the three dots > settings I have a "My Day" card that I can click to change settings just like the article indicates. Running latest PN w/ Assistant enabled via the "Get Assistant - Root" app on the play store.

I am using the same Get Assistant Method on 7.1.1. Can it be region specific ?

Mine shows just below my account name.

I think you'd need to set a calendar event to show the summary of your day.

Joying UL135N2 settings?

Hi. I recently purchased a Joying Android Head Unit JY-UL135N2. I have been watching alot of YouTube videos about setting up the device and I noticed that I have none of the settings that I see on the videos like "Driving Settings" and "Factory Settings". All I have is normal android settings. Am I doing something wrong or is there more settings that im not aware of? I did see a Icon that says "Car Media Settings" but the options in their are not the ones im looking for. Im trying to turn off the head unit guidelines for the backup camera because my camera that I purchased already has guidelines so Im seeing two sets of lines when it is active.
Thanks

My unit arrives on Thursday I'll let you know by then but a lot of those videos are of the older 5.1 units so it may be different or maybe try asking in the joying forums

In "carmediasettings", there is third tab look like settings icon.
Passwords "3368"
there is option for remove backup camera guideline.

Developer options in the main system settings menu also has the password 3368.

the lights option is under the CarMedia Settings, but for some weird reason it only shows up if your lights are already on

Thanks that worked great. I have another question tho.... I want to install Viper4android but I can't find any solid info on how to root the 5.1.1 HU's. Any information would be greatly appreciated

Maybe reading this helps: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...roll-joying-2gb-sofia-mtcb-mtcd-tips-t3555249

Viper is not quite worth the headache. Look into upgrading the audio chip in the unit itself

Okay Google everywhere in bmw Eunavi RK3199 head unit

Hello everyone,
I have been looking around google and the forum for a way to fix my issue and I have not been that successful.
I have recently bought a EUNAVI head unit. I was not able to identify the MCU version, but the chipset is RK3199 I believe. I can give more information in regards to this if needed.
My main issue is that after installing Google App, Google Assistant and even Google Voice, for some reason the "Okay Google" only works if you are in the Google App. Is this due to the App Launcher used (so it may work with a different launcher) or is there anything that makes the Google App run in the background?
Edit: just to be clear, the "Voice Match" option in the Google App cannot be selected.
Thank you in advance for your time!

I'd also like to add that I tried using Automate & Nova Launcher and found the same issue
