Steering Wheel Voice Commands - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

Hello, I've tried everything on the MTC-Keys thread to get my steering wheel controls for Google Now to work with no luck. The button is key code 4 on my wheel according to Car Service. Can anyone offer me any advice on how to get this up and running? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Joying-Quad core- How to scroll through radio presets

It seems like a simple problem, but I cannot figure it out. When I am listening to the radio and I press forward (either on my steering wheel or the head unit) it just goes to the very next radio station (96.3-96.5-96.7-96.9....etc). I want it to scroll through my presets instead. Anyone know how to do that?
Also, I am using the latest Malaysk rom in case that matters.
Thanks,
PIA
Figured it out. I just mapped my forward and back buttons to a different function. Kind of like seek/skip.
Could you explain more in detail what you did? I want to be able to do this too
Go to settings, steering controls, and map the forward buttons on your steering wheel to the top set of arrows. This only works if you have steering wheel controls

Yeah mine won't go up or down the pre sets when I press the steering wheel control buttons either

Steering Wheel Bluetooth Controls

I am looking for a steering wheel mountable, Bluetooth controller for an Android device. Currently, I am use a device called Bluclik. It works great for audio control. I can control volume and change tracks in all audio apps. However, I am trying to get full navigation control. I'd like at the very least, to have buttons for up, down, left right, enter/select and volume. If something also had back, home, and overview buttons it would be perfect.
I have been searching for a few hours now and have failed miserably. So this means either what I want doesn't exist or I have failed to internet good enough. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Problem with steering wheel controls

Hi, I have a radio car gps for a toyota rav4, but I can not get the bluetooth steering wheel controls working. The steering wheel controls for + and - the volume work. Neither appears in the configuration of the controls of the steering wheel a button for the bluetooth. Does anyone have a similar radio?
Thanks

How does steering controls works?

Hi,
I have a MTCE / PX5 with a raise , ford focus 2012 canbus decoder. Steering controls work (vol up/dw next/prev/play/pause ONLY) BUT how come I can't see anything in wheelkey study app? I would like to rebind some of my steering controls but the app don't see anything.
I have so many controls on my steering wheel I would like to bind but I can't!
Please someone have an idea what's wrong?
Thanks!

I’ve wondered the same, I believe you need to use the mtcde app to make changes to already default binded buttons but not worked out how to unbind one first.

My understanding (although haven't tested it yet) is that you need to connect the cables Key-1 and Key-2 directly to your steering wheel if you want to use the default learning function. This is assuming Ford Focus uses resistive bridges for steering wheel keys (Mazda does). You'll have to get & check a Wiring Diagram specific to your car to find the right cables. Also, Key 2 is NOT ground, you have 2 cables because sometimes the steering wheel controls go to different devices (in Mazda 3, the Vol +/-, Next and Mode go to the stereo, while the Push-to-talk, Hang-up / Hang-down go to the Bluetooth controller)
Hope this helps
Having said this, maybe you're better of by testing first XPosed, an app that allows you to change the functions of the keys. But you'll have to root your device. Malaysk has a SW release for PX5 already rooted and with XPOSED pre-installed. But most probably XPOSED will only let you change the functions of the keys that are already working, not to solve the issues with the ones that are not

I have the same problem on a Ford Kuga. Did you find a solution ?
Maybe the canbus configuration in the "settings" menu (the password protected menu) ?

The wheelkey study app is for non-canbus only.
The steering wheel keys are controlled by the canbus decoder for some vehicles. So that you can not program them.

Good response, but I think this thread went to crickets weeks ago.

Helpful -- thank you. Same issue here with a 2014 VW Beetle and an Eonon GA9153A (MTCE_HT_V2.84_1). At least now I understand why the wheelkey app doesn't recognize any steering wheel buttons. Bad software design -- the app should really show a message explaining this better

Maxda MX-5 NC 2007. Xtrons Universal 8.0 Steering Wheel buttons

Greetings All,
I have just fitted an Xtrons universal DD running 8.0 into a 07 MX-5 (NC). All is well except the steering wheel buttons do nothing. I am using a Connect2 adaptor for the car specifically. When running wheel study, I press Vol down and then Vol down on the wheel and get nothing. I called Connect 2 who suggested mashing the wheel buttons. Still nothing. Anyone be in this position before? Thank you
