There is no call happening during that screenshot, but you can see it still persists.
It still works for a new call, but it is annoying. If you have a clue what the name of that process / app / whatever is, that will help new greatly toward troubleshooting.
Thanks in advance.
I discovered if I kill the process "Phone" from application manager, it will close the notification panel phone widget.
I attempted to use tasker to automatically close it when idle (both as root and not), but that didn't work.
Anyone know of an xposed module that has an impact on Phone?
I found it. The process name is com.android.phone. In a tasker run shell command I added:
Code:
am force-stop com.android.phone
which killed the phone once I hung it up. Root is required. Thanks for letting me troubleshoot here!
Hi,
I'm wondering if some of you KLD / KLG / MX / etc unit owners are using google voice commands. I can't use it properly on my unit, it crashes all the time. Sometimes it works, but usually it crashes. I'm using Malaysk rom. Is there anybody who can you use google voice without any problems? Or is there a simpel solution to fix my issues? I'm using a external mic connected with a jack to the backside of my unit.
I have spent a lot of time with this issue. My views are that the OEM version of the Google app is the only stable version(for voice use) for these HUs. My JY solution was to extract the Velvet.apk from the factory ROM. After updating to a Malsysk ROM, I replaced the pre updated apk back to the older factory version. You will lose out out on some updated features, but having a working voice command is nice tradeoff.

Phone calls? No. I believe this is a common issue, there is no phone hardware onboard. Though I'm not that familiar with that feature.
Email and other task could be handled with Autovoice if Google app can not. Again, not that familiar.
For me, the main missing feature was choice of navigation app. Nav questions will only launch GMaps, newer version can launch Waze or your nag app choice, by default.

If you have a phone connected via BT you can make phone calls using OK Google.

I've read some posts in the Malaysk ROM thread and many people have modded their units by opening them up and re-runing the internal mic. It's that mic, not the external, that is used for voice commands and apparently it is an unshielded wire that allows for a lot of interference and therefore unreliable google voice. I'm still foggy on the voice dialing but someone somewhere got this to work but not through the native bluetooth app. I think I read that they used the RK3066/Rk3188 app in the google play store or something...I'm just getting started with my unit and it's not even installed yet. Hopefully some of this was insightful for you.

I am using the latest Malaysk ROM dated 10th January 2016 for RK3188 1024*600. It lets me speak Ok Google and Call (contact name) to the phone when after pressing the call button. The way it works for me is:
1. Whatever is playing on the unit, it stops when I press the call button on my steering;
2. It launches the unit's dial screen;
3. I say 'OK Google', it launches the ok google listener on the phone;
4. I say 'Call (contact name)' and it calls.
Few things I had to manage before this started working was:
1. Enable the option to receive commands over bluetooth in Google Now settings in the phone;
2. Enable to XPOSED MTC in the XPOSED framework in the head unit;
3. Change the setting to integrate with phone's google now interface (something like that) in XPOSED MTC module.
Hope this helps.
Can you elaborate on this process please?

Hi,
1. Enable the option to receive commands over bluetooth in Google Now settings in the phone;
Were can i find this option? I have a nexus 5 and i updated my google now, but there no option like that in google now. Or do you mean the option "bluetooth headset" under voice?
3. Change the setting to integrate with phone's google now interface (something like that) in XPOSED MTC module.
I can't find any options in Xposed MTC related to what you are writing. Are you sure this option is in Xposed MTC?
Thank you!!!

Hi there,
I to have been wondering about the best way to get voice dialling working and as my google voice crashes the HU more often than not, I think it is best to do this as shaiq123 has suggested by pressing the call button the steering wheel and then Ok Googling the phone to make the call.
But my phone goes to lock screen in the car and that stops this working. What I would like is that when my phone connects to the car bluetooth it
1) stops it going to lockscreen
2) activates wifi hotspot
3) activates 'ok google' if it is not normally activated
and it reverses on disconnecting.
Is this something easily done or do I need some kind of app to do this?
A final thing that would be helpful, is that it would be useful to give the play music command to direct the HU to play music from an HU attached SD card rather than the phone memory. Is there a way to also configure that (i.e. that the command would seek music stored on HU rather than phone first?)
Cheers

You could achieve the first part using Tasker, you would just create a profile to run your tasks that actives when your phone connects to the headunit. Its a great app for automating stuff like that.

Thanks - in fact this morning I have downloaded the trial for Tasker as well as Automate to see if they can do what I am looking for.
I've decided what would be really helpful would be if I could
1) Use app to detect when phone connects to car HU via bluetooth
2) Launch Wifi Hotspot
3) set the camera button to unlock screen and activate google voice
Now 1&2 look like its not too difficult and may even be doable using the Sony Smart Connect app (on a Z2, not rooted).
3 doesn't seem to be as instantly obvious. In tasker, I put in a new profile>event>hardware>button camera, also selected non beginner settings so could pit priority to highest and activate stop event, then put the task as launch voice search app - but it just keeps doing the camera?

Create a new Profile>State>Net>BT Connected then click the magnifying glass next to name and select the name of your headunit. This will mean whenever your bluetooth is connected to the headunit it will run the tasks associated with it. It will give you the option to name and create a task once you create your profile then create new>Net>WiFi Tether and set to On.
I have a Z2 as well and just tried the camera button as a profile and it didn't work for me either, you'll need to do some googling on that, not sure why it doesnt work. It's best to set a flash (Alert>Flash) in your task as a test to see if your task runs but I'm sure you need to need to have root to unlock the screen.

Thanks for this - and yes this where I had got to (which make me feel better!). And I too think the camera button may not be workable without root.
I think I need to change my plans and see if I can prevent the lockscreen to come on when connected to this bluetooth device. That way I can fall back to using ok google as the lockscreen prevents ok google from completing requests.
Okay - think I've done that and it was easy enough, now have a profile which when connected to HU through bluetooth does (1) set off wifi tether and (2) Set keyguard off. Then with (3) double tap to wake screen and (4) Ok google should be able to do what I need it to.
Last thing I'm wondering if you could do is to create a large voice dial icon (double normal size etc) on screen (in case initial ok google doesn't work)...
Hello,
I'm quite new to this forum and I've recently bought a ZUK Z1.
I had BlackBerry devices (BB10 ones) for long time and going back to Android is a sort of excitement and little disappointment as well from one side.
I've installed Cyanogenmod 13 on my ZUK Z1, but I can't find any way to proper set Sound Profiles like I was used to do with my BlackBerry.
- Normal (calls/notification... etc)
- Phone Calls only (no notifications except calls)
- Silent (no sounds in general)
Plus, I badly miss the 'Bedside mode', where the phone disables mobile network and wifi, all notifications (led/sounds etc) and shows a big black screen with only the clock.
I had a check in the forum and around the web and I found that Sound Profiles seems probably what could solve the first need.
About the second one, there are few apps that are able to display the clock... but that's it - no ability to change the sound profile settings.
So, I was trying to set a profile called "Night" in Sound Profiles to at least be able to get the same setup, using the "enable airplane mode" feature, and have this profile set to launch one of these big clocks apps afterwards.
What I've noticed is that Marshmallow doesn't seem to allow apps to set automatically 'airplane mode'. I'm a bit lost about the reasons, but it seems that I need to have this Xposed installed.
Now, my questions.
1) It seems that the current default procedure to install Xposed Installer and run the Framework install does not work and we need to use this procedure
2) On that guide, the link for Xposed arm v78 sdk 22 is broken, and in the original link I find multiple zips and I'm not sure which one is the correct one I should use.
3) Do I need Gravitybox for my specific purpose of having Sound Profiles able to set this airport mode?
4) Do I really need to do all of this to simply achieve my goals?
Sorry for the long questionnaire but I do really appreciate your help in this
Thanks!

Just to help others that might face the same... here some answers to my questions
Yes, the instructions in "Sound Profiles" app need to be ignored and follow that thread.
The file to install via TWRP (or any other recovery mode) for ZUK Z1 with Marshmallow is xposed-vXX-sdk23-arm.zip. My understanding is that the architecture of this phone is ARM, and the Marshmallow sdk is the 23.
Then I've installed XposedInstaller_XXXX_.apk (latest available) and I can see that all seems installed.
Last bit, is downloading and installing the module that allows apps to access Airplane mode. Found the apk on here. I've used the most recent.
Once all is installed, I opened Xposed Installer, got into 'Modules' an ENABLED "Airplane Mode Helper". This must be enabled in the modules' list AND within its own options.
A nice reboot and all seems working
About Gravitybox, I had a look to this video and I've realised that I don't need this. This is an app for who has stock roms. Mine is the Cyanogenmod (v 13) and it's already heavily customisable.
There is still the pending question... is this the right/best app to use to achieve my goals? Until further suggestions, I believe it is
If you all remember an xposed module "Physical Button Music Control - PBMC" developed by @Xspeed. I am basically looking for that module to be part of Magisk.
Is there anyone that could port it? It's a humble request from the great developers of this community.
ABOUT THE MODULE:
It basically allows u to have various control options for music, system shortcuts, keyboard presses, application launch etc by using volume buttons of ur phone as well as other buttons regardless of whether the screen is on or not. (You can set the actions to only occur if screen is on or off).
My main concern is that the function should would with screen off.

Hello,
i am looking also from 1 or 2 months on that but it's REALLY difficult because Magisk is really different from XPosed, so i search a framework that i could "import" on Nougat.
The difficuty is in fact that i search an android Framework library that is must up to date (or its me that will must make it up to date), find a way to implement it with Magisk and debug all the stuff..
For me, it's purelly impossible to implement theses features on Android stock without any dedicated framework.
XPosed is an hooking method to implement an art framework, by this fact you can use this framework implementation to declare several extra functions on Android.
Magisk is an system-less implementation system that allow u to use "mororring" Linux fonctions to avoid system partition modifications.
I'm familiar with the difference between magisk and xposed but can't all these functions work say in like a custom kernel? Like how the holding power button turns on flash?

No, because has my answer on the original thread was confirmed by the dev, more than most of the commands used in the code of PBMC aren't recognized by default in android and so require an external framework like XPosed.
It's the same fact for others apps too certains options in Greenify (as an exemple).
Customs kernels could define differents hardware-software values from stock bases, but they don't add really completly massive codes in android frameworks.
Alright then well have u found any Alternative or would we just have to wait for stable xposed on nougat?
Back in the day before the creation of Xposed people used framework patchers to add volume button track skip feature for example. But this was usable only to ROM developers on custom ROMs.
While it MAY be possible to create a patcher to use with Magisk, it's purely theoretical and would have a lot of flaws in practice (one example would be multiple developers trying to patch one file and users ending up bricking their devices in worst case scenario). Other issue would be time: Java development took me a whole year to make PBMC, and making a patcher would take twice as much time. Not really a good idea, I guess Xposed for Nougat will come earlier than that

As far as I remember I made it compatible and I've seen people saying it works on that unstable version of Xposed for Nougat.
Actually it does work on Nougat, the problem is that Xposed for Magisk breaks the SafetyNet.
I'm looking for something like this as well...
Not looking for anything fancy. I just want to be able to long press volume up or down to skip music tracks while screen is off. Im on stock OOS rooted and TWRP on OnePlus 6.
