Hello,
i didn't find anything useful to this topic:
when i get into my car, the radio connects to my BA via bluetooth to be connected and to get calls on the radio.
while connecting, my BA wakes up and displays all with full light! normally it's inside my trousers and i will not look at the display! i will not see the display and it should sleep furthermore
Is there a way to disable this function in registry or with a program?!
Is there a way of making this "icon" vissible on my todayscreen - only when the BT headset is connected
Now i need to press the green phone buttom and go to "phone" to see wether my BT headset is connected or not. It would bee great to have a icon on my today screen
Thanx in advance
Just created this thread to find out what kind of car setups do you guys have with your Galaxy Nexus?
I just created mine using NFC, BT and Tasker to send all music and calls to car stereo when I enter the car, read out sms while driving, turn up backlight during daytime etc and then go back to previous state when I exit.
Details here: My Android NFC BT Car Audio Setup
What have you done to pimp up your car with your beloved GN?
I have a 3.5mm audio in jack for aux, I purchased a XtremeMac InCharge BT for wireless music. No special "read text aloud" apps or anything, I just try not to text in the car.

I have a Parrot MKI9200. I get in the car, it connects and I drive off. No point in turning BT off (very low power in standby) and you can do the other stuff with a BT on-connect event in Tasker. Don't generally bother, TBH. Lazy, me

Interesting. Right now I just keep Bluetooth on always, and then manually open the Pandora app (for music) when I'm in the car (built-in BT stereo). Leaving the car, it turns off automatically. Eventually I'm going to set up Delayed Lock to turn off lock screen while connected to BT.

I wanted to go that route too earlier but I connect to other BT devices as well through the day . Hope Tasker adds rules for specific devices soon.

Do try out tasker along with secure settings plugin. You will pay just a little bit more but acquire this and lot more functionality.
I'm using a Kinivo BTC8 bluetooth to fm
With the OEM car dock.
NFC key-chain and NFC Task Launcher to change my settings
Works great for music, calls, navigation, etc

Doesn't Tasker already do this? When I select a context for "Bluetooth Connected," it opens a dialog where I can choose the name or address of the Bluetooth advice from a list of devices I've paired with. I choose to pair with my Parrot device, and it's always worked for me.
I should admit that I very rarely pair with any other device, so I might not notice whether Tasker is only responding to the fact of the Bluetooth connection, rather than the specific device. But if that's the case, why provide an option for you to select the specific device?

Ah thanks for letting me know about this. I had tried this very long back when Tasker had just been released and didn't think of seeing again if it had been changed. Will try this.
Hey guys,
I just bought a new unit and have had fun installing/setting it up. But I've run into a few problems/questions that I can not easily solve from searching. I'm hoping for some help. I appreciate any insight that can be provided!
purchased:
MTCB 800x480 (EONON GA2114)
1.) I can't get the reverse camera to work
My previous head unit was the Astroid Parrot Smart and my backkup camera was working. I've setup my MTCB as follows: HU reverse wire to reverse light 12v & HU "cam in" to camera's RCA plug. I'm experiencing: when I put in reverse gear, I get a yellow triangle exclimation point and no proper video. Could this be becuase I have not grounded the HU parking wire (everything else is working properly without having to do that. Is there a setting somewhere I need to change?... pal vs ntsc?
2. ODBD not working correctly.
I can connect to it in bluetooth settings but Torque can not connect to it. I do have blue OBDB icon that appears in the taskbar
3. Keypress (for the physical hardware buttons) volume is too loud
even if I have the radio volume turned all the way down
4. music volume is too loud when volume set at one
With the volume of music at it's lowest setting, it's at a normal listening level.
5. Elements in Settings disappeared
It's just gone. I can't change the physical button colors any more. It was there before.
6. Saved radio stations.
After a scan is complete.... I can't figure out how to reorganize the order of stations.... or even delete the unwanted presets
7. Best way to automate wifi hotspot?
Should I set a tasker action to start hotspot upon bluetooth connect to unit? I sometimes have bluetooth manually turned off though. ... what's everyones solution to this? I though about a NFC sticker placed on my phone dock to automate bluetooth/hotspot.

When you say parking wire I assume you mean park brake wire. The park brake wire has nothing to do with reverse video. It is suppose
to turn off DVD video during driving. Which can be changed in settings BTW. Exclamation point normally means no video. Are you sure
you used the right input and that your camera is providing video? Test your camera on a normal video in and verify if you get a picture.
Also verify that your reverse camera gets 12 volt when selected.
Hey Guys,
I'm planning to buy Isudar PX6 Alfa Romeo version.
I've got some some questions before i go for it:
* Why this device is not able to read information via canbus like AC status, head lights status and door status etc? As I know only the steerting wheel control works.
* I would like to keep the Blue and Me installed in the system. This means that Blue and Me line out should go to MTCU Aux in. Is that possible to switch to aux automatically when line level signal detected?
* I'm not really sure about the sound quality. I was told the sound of the DSP version is excellent. How is the sound compared to the OEM HU?
Thanks,

Headlight On/Off works and will switch Day/Night mode on the HU
The SWC controls only work partly (FF(Next) / RW(Prev); SRC; Vol+/-;Mute). Call Button always rejects the calls.
Never tried keeping the B&M system, however i expect you might experience issues with controling B&M and the HU.
Sound quality is ok, however depending if you have Bose or not you need to connect the HU differently (No Bose: use stock ISO connector, with BOSE you should connect via the RCA connector to skip the pre-amp in the HU_
