    You might mention that the center multi-widget in Agama also has a configurable automatic mode that makes it switch content based on what the car is doing. For example, you can set it so that it switches to your car logo when the car is stopped, then back to whatever you have it showing while moving--navigation maybe. It can also be set to show the album art for a specific amount of time whenever the song changes. Things like that. Pretty cool feature.

    Just installed the ATOTO A6 PF. Really like it. Now it’s time to play with it. I want to add a car launcher. Looking for a simple user friendly app. Still new to Android. My question is, with all the launcher reviews I see they all are on larger 10” screens. What launcher would you recommend for the 7” A6 ?
    Great work as always.

    Worth mentioning that Agama (and possibly other launchers) have the ability to enable immersive mode and fill the entire screen. The status bar can then be brought back into view by swiping down from the top of the screen. Immersive Mode Manager can enable this same functionality system wide.

      @@jongittus2279 thanks, I found it. The Bluetooth app was being hidden, I had to click the "eye" icon to review all apps when you're on the apps page.
      I like the launcher, better than the Joying one, my only slight gripe is that I can't get it to automatically pick up a wifi connection from my iPhone (in tethering mode). So everytime I get into the car I have to go into wifi settings and force it to connect to the remote hot spot being broadcast by my iPhone.
      One way around this is to use the SIM card option which is a cool feature of the Joying units but then I have the additional monthly cost of another SIM card !

I have the 2011 - 2013 jeep grand Cherokee which also has the front car camera for the adaptive cruise control and collision warning feature. Is it possible to connect that camera to the CC3. Also does it come with the replacement frame or do I need to order that separately. And finally will my current car have a Canbus that will link to the CC3 or do I need one of them to. The car has steering wheel controls. Sorry about all the questions but an absolute novice on this stuff. Cheers Pete

    Hi and thank you for another excellent video.
    I chose Agama and so far it is really good. Still, reaching for the screen during driving can be challenging even with these attractive and practical launchers - how far have you gone with controlling android devices via steering wheel buttons? I have seen videos where you can jump from icon to icon and select them without touching the screen, so I'm guessing (and obviously still learning) that steering wheel buttons are to be used (not shown in those videos).
    I just bought a 2016. Vauxhall Insignia with installed android (SPRD Ums512_1h10_Natv, 4GB RAM) and using the steering wheel buttons I can only change volume, skip stations/songs start telephone and mute sound, but cannot use the arrow-pad/joystick with the "select" button to move among clickable fields and select on the screen.
    SWC app does not allow me to program anything differently from default settings. I do not know why but it seems locked.
    Enabling this (arrow-pad/joystick) would add so much value to the whole system for me.
    Any ideas, advices or at least, pointing me to the right direction?
    Thankful in advance and best regards!
    Keep up the excellent work!

I am trying to find an appropriate car launcher but i need it to have the option to connect to the original UI or "virtual screen" that the Audi had in the past so i can see the car settings (sound settings for example), reverse camera and parking sensors. Do you know if there is any option that would have this sort of access the stock screen?

    Car web guru does far more than the others. You can upload any image for a background and then use the constructor to make any location on the screen actionable. For instance, I installed a photo of the old ram/fm cassette/cd radio the head unit replaced and gave the knobs and features touch screen commands. Plus it has it's own music player and works great on split screen mode.

    I am an Android Auto user and I've tried all of these launchers on my EKIY T900 with mixed results.
    They are all an upgrade on the supplied launchers (I upgraded my head unit to the latest software version to have the best launchers), however, Vivid was easily my favourite....right up until the audio stopped working while using the CarlinkV2 app for Android Auto...
    Took me a while to work out that Vivid was the culprit. Uninstalling Vivid rectified the problem. Reported the bug to the Vivid Devs, then installed it again a few months later....same problem. Tried again a few weeks ago (now over a year since the first attempt), still the same. Such a shame, it's a lovely launcher.

Others might have different criteria, e.g. wide range of file types. Musicolet comes close but unfortunately the icons and font are tiny on an ATOTO S8’s screen size and resolution with (apparently) no way to adjust it.

    Vivid Launcher works for me, although I can't seem to replace my default launcher. I can runaround it by setting it to launch at bootup so the process does seem a bit klunky - first enter the splash screen, then the default launcher, before Vivid launches. Thing is, I end up using Z Link for Android Auto anyhow so I'd rather start straight from Vivid, without passing through the default launcher.

      I do like vivid, but it’s limited with its widgets, I want the maps on the home screen to use my built in maps that uses GPS and I want the music player to display what mode it’s in (ie, Radio, BT Music, aux, etc…)

    Hi, just discovered your channel about a week ago and have been watching many of your videos, very impressive and great information.
    Just wanted to know if the company joying ever push out firmware updates ?and am I able to update from android 10 to 12 without any issues?
    I just purchased a 10.1” joying head unit after watching one of your videos. You seem very savvy around these units , that’s why I ask
    Thank you for any information you can pass along and thank you for making great educational videos
    Cheers

      Hey Sheldon. Firmware updates for head units very rarely upgrade the version of Android itself. But to be honest, the version of Android is actually irrelevant as the vast majority of improvements are made for smart phones and would make no difference to a car head unit

    Did your unit come with a wiring harness or how did you wire it up? I'm looking to buy one and I'm confused on that front. Thanks!

      I recently bought an iDoing head unit for my 2013 WRX, and everything was plug and play. If you go to their website you can look and see if they make a unit specifically for your car. If not, they sell universal units that can be wired in.

    Hi guys I have a issue with mine at first the unit wouldn’t power off after the ignition was turned off, then unplugged a cable and the screen goes off but goes back to the original page that was on before turned off so at a guess I’d say it’s not turning off fully, I set a logo ( Ford ) but when saved nothing happens could it be something in the settings as when I did a reboot it did power on with the logo but only the once 🤔 also looking into other launches now really cool video I also should have mirroring through TImaAVN but never goes past the first step 😅

    Thanks for a very helpful video of car launcher, it’s what I’m looking at to update my android screen in my car, can I ask if it’s possible to download those pay launcher on a laptop to usb before install them on to the android head unit, as I don’t want to enter payment details into the android head unit for safety reasons.
    Regards

      @SaabUnleashed  8 месяцев назад +1

      Whatever Google account you're using on the head unit, also log in on your mobile phone and buy the software on the phone. Then it's attached to that google account, so you can download it on the head unit.
