Regarding Technical problem
Hi ,
I am porting android os (2.3) on raspberry pi but I am getting some commands on the screen end by rainbow color screen . I changed the config text file in android os by hdmi (groups and modes) but still getting same . If you have any config text working with android os post here based on that I will change the modes and groups in hdmi.
Regards
pavan
hi guys looking for android os thats runs on raspberry pi please..
None, that are usable
Why do you want to install Android on the Raspberry Pi ? There are a lot of applications that works well on the Raspberry Pi.
However in this section there are some interesting threads like this one : http://forum.xda-developers.com/hardware-hacking/raspberry-pi/rd-android-4-4-4-t2816952
It would be great if we can install Android on Raspberry Pi

Not in a near future... maybe never. Read the existing threads.
Well with ARM 7 they might be a chance for Android with RPI 2

Personally I'm more interested in the upcoming Android Auto. Android is nice because it can be easily adapted as a Car PC and there are already great navigation apps, and other apps which are all designed for the touch screen interface.
I could do linux with XBMC, which I may just do, but the Android system just seems more of a fit.

That is exactly what I am looking to do for my car. It already have the Microsoft Sync system in it, but I think Android auto would work better for the most part. I am thinking about installing it in a way where I could have both systems and have the output from Android auto run through the speakers, and also adding a bluetooth OBD2 adapter to monitor the cars internal systems. Sync does a poor job at that. If everything is running smoothly it only says that, without going into any detail.
Get the new Pi 2 model B. Microsoft is going to be releasing a port of Windows 10 for it... Hopefully have some apps to take advantage of Microsoft Sync

Already ordered mine. Hopefully the 2 systems will tie together but I heard Ford is going with Blackberry for its new Sync systems and dropping Microsoft. http://microsoft-news.com/ford-substitutes-microsoft-for-blackberry-for-the-new-sync/
Hi, I have searched the forum to find an answer to this question, and I understand it is probably a basic question, but I appreciate anyone's ideas.
I am trying to start an activity in my app and view it on the desktop head unit. I can easily use the startActivity() method to see the activity open on my Android tablet. However, I don't know how to start an activity so it appears on the head unit instead. I have tried many approaches, including starting a service, but nothing has worked. Thanks for your suggestions.
Android and Android Auto is a complete different world. You always need SDKs to program for a specific platform. For Android Auto this is not available, so with any basic Android tutorial you cant reach anything. If you have a Head Unit (from China) with basic Android you can for sure program it like any other Android device. But if you want to use the Android Auto environment build in many new cars, I tell you its more than hard for you to get anything running. Only way you can program right now is a Messaging or Music playing app. So the possibilities are quite limited. More information under https://developer.android.com/training/auto/index.html
Hi guys!
I m new here and i ve been searching for it mostly here and in web researches, but cannot find a clear answer.
Does anyone know a ROM suitable for a tablet (i have a xiaomi clover that i could use for it) that i could mount on my motorbike for gpx navigation, maybe weather and music also ( getting real time machine data via the ECU, as speed, revs, temperature etc would be awesome too! )
It ll be great if a tablet could actually (replace, or) complete the dashboard informations,
Does anyone has a clue about which way i should dig around ?
thanks you all
I have a nexus 5x always in car, for android auto. I have rooted the phone and Uninstall most of android. Including phone app, sms, etc. I have only keep the core of android and gaps so to run android auto and evey app i wanted. This is the way..
I guess you are not looking for a ROM but for some apps to be installed in your tablet or phone.
You can test some Car Launchers you can find in the Store.
To get real-time parameters you will need an ODB connected to your bike and for the software, with any ODB you buy there will be a basic app to obtain real-time data. Specifically for motorbikes you have MOTOSCAN.
So I am stuck in a dilemma. Ive switched roms so many times I still don't know which way to go.
I want to us Android Auto. But I want to natively run my Uber/Lyft driver apps on the main screen. I dont want to involve the use of a typical phone or tablet. I have 2 Raspberry Pi's. An 8gb and a 2gb. I have a Sim7600G-H cell/gps module. I have 2 mcp2515 can modules on the spi bus.
I have 10" screen and a 4" screen.
Ah, but it gets better. I also have a number of arduinos in the equation too. These will control lights and servos. All custom programmed in python to operate over i2c.
I think im sticking with the Open Auto Pro method as my main screen. But i'm not sure. I love the car launcher apps that are available on android so they would look cool as the main screen too. Not sold on Kodi as a launcher option.
So I open the floor to debate. Android as a main app and run linux as secondary? Or run Open Auto Pro (linux) as main and android (LineageOS or OmniRom) as secondary?
same question in my head because of another reason:
I have a carplay-dongle and bought Pi4 to use it. I can use it with LineageOS or openauto pro. I tried with an android-tablet but had some problems and decided to do it with raspberry.
Both of them has similar functions:
Integrated music player
Display OBD-II data
Plugin CarPlay Autobox for OpenAuto Pro
Navigation with Android Auto™ head unit emulation
Multi-langugage support
Benefits of LineageOS:
is free and you will get free updates all time.
Your android-apk will also updated all time.
Android developed and optimised for light hardware. A PI4 4GB will a really good hardware-base.
Openauto Pro:
It is developed as a car head unit. User interface, community, supports... All of them for same purpose. If you have a specific problem like wheel-controller or power on-off etc... It is easier than only-android. You can run not only apk's, also linux packages.
You get free-updates only one year. You have to buy Carplay-Plugin separately. Maybe this plugin will not works next year with IOS-16. I don't know, if I get a free update or not.
Other issue of it cpu-memory usage: Debian-OS is developed for a Desktop-PC and a Pi4-4GB is a thin hardware for this os.
My Wish-List:
DAB-Radio support
TSR (Traffic sign recognisition)
Lane Assistant
Both system does not have a built in solution for FM-Radio, TSR or Lane Assistent. But you can use Android-Apps on both systems.
I will try first with LineageOS and maybe some android-apps too. If it is not enought, I can buy Openauto and use bought apps on it too.
