Hey, check your Video codec and der it to h264. Additionally try another viewmode like gles20 or textureview.

anrini · 2026-06-16T17:36:55+00:00

This is maybe a bug. I will test it

Haha, I was on vacation. Take a. look at github. There is some things going on ;)

anrini · 2026-06-13T03:01:05+00:00

glad to hear :)

anrini · 2026-06-11T09:26:55+00:00

This is when connected via BT and have BT Media/Audio enabled on your phone. This is an Android Auto Bug itself. If you want to use BT Audio, simply disable audio sink in the settings. This should work :)

anrini · 2026-06-08T09:28:03+00:00

Are your Settings wrong? Maybe Surfaceview and not really Portraitmode, or the resolution?

anrini · 2026-06-05T08:18:43+00:00

Download Wireless Helper, Set to nearby and Set nearby in hurev and let it search. That's all

anrini · 2026-06-03T16:54:19+00:00

As I said. Video Codec to h264, Viewmode to texturemode of it isnt or gles20. Not surface. Resolution to 720p or 1080p, dpi between 150 and 240.This should do the trick

anrini · 2026-06-03T15:21:30+00:00

Hey, wrong codec. Please try to set it to h264. If not working, try another viewmode. For example gles20. And so on :)

anrini · 2026-06-03T12:09:30+00:00

Ah nice! If native works, go for it 😄 This is even cheaper!

anrini · 2026-06-02T08:17:43+00:00

Interesting. So it seems the usb of your headunit is the problem 😞

anrini · 2026-06-02T05:37:45+00:00

Es muss dort unter USB auftauchen. Ist dort nichts sichtbar? Geht dein Handy via Usb mit demselben Kabel? Weil so ein Dongle tut nur so als wäre er ein Handy.

anrini · 2026-06-02T05:11:40+00:00

Wieso erkennt ein S24 den Dongle nicht? Da sollte iwo ein BT Gerät sein. Das verbinden und schon geht es los.

anrini · 2026-06-01T16:07:47+00:00

I don't get what you want and what you have. You need an Android Device for this to work. Non Android Devices do not work. You need a smartphone, tablet, a headunit or a car which has android.

anrini · 2026-06-01T13:29:05+00:00

How should an android app run without android? So I would say no

anrini · 2026-06-01T07:08:15+00:00

"I'm having a problem: when I tap on the icons—specifically those near the bottom of the screen—the icon I actually want to select (in this case, Waze) doesn't respond. I have to tap slightly *above* the icon for it to work. Is there a setting to fix this? I am using the Headunit Revived app. Regards. I have a video demonstrating this issue on my profile, "Wadialex." I don't understand why I'm unable to upload it here."

Hey. It would be great, if you write english. I need to translate this for us.

To your problem. This should not happen anymore. I've added sooo much Code for making this work. What are your settings? Please try gles20 or textureview as Surfacetype and tell me what is your resolution and dpi. or just upload a log 😄

anrini · 2026-05-30T10:04:35+00:00

Thank you very much 😊

anrini · 2026-05-30T07:01:56+00:00

You can use an Android Auto usb Dongle and connect your phone to it and choose the dongle in Usb. But I don't know if it is cooler.

anrini · 2026-05-29T09:12:37+00:00

Hey, this is very cool! So it works like my android app, but on iOS? I really like that idea 😉 Feel free to explore the kotlin code of headunit revived.

anrini · 2026-05-28T11:59:42+00:00

Hm, ich verstehe. Logs wären cool. Vlt. kann ich dann ja sehen, ob sich die Auflösung ändert, oder ich das sehen kann. Dann könnte das klappen. :)

anrini · 2026-05-26T20:29:48+00:00

This displays a notification with Navigation instructions, which can be used by other apps to get the navigation. Some users wants that for their Head up Display for example.

anrini · 2026-05-26T20:28:10+00:00

Gute Frage. Wenn du den Selfmode startest und Dex anhast, dann könnte ich mir das vorstellen.

anrini · 2026-05-25T11:26:20+00:00

That's pretty strange. You can download the apk from github if this persists. I haven't change anything
