Android Head Units

Version 20240919 based on Android 13 for ZXW devices running on GT6 (SD665/SM6125) platform, built on Thursday, September 19, 2024.

Summary:

• New theme KSW_BMW_ID8_KJD with ID 47
• New theme KSW_BENZ_LS with ID 48 (under development)
• New BT Transmission app hidden behind a new factory setting “USB BT transmit” <btTransmitVisible>
• New factory setting “Automatically enter navigation upon startup” <bootStartNavi>

Changes since 20240829GT_KSW built 3 weeks earlier:

• Theme KSW_BMW_ID8_KJD with id="47" introduced across most of the built-in apps with graphics and lots of duplicated code, mostly to handle its own images over the standard KSW_BMW_ID8
• Theme KSW_BENZ_LS with id="48" seems to be still under development as this firmware update does not have any graphics and custom logic for it yet
• Ivicar app: The “Non-reverse Picture-in-Picture trigger” setting has been changed to be enabled by default
• CustomerUI app: New CONTROL_DISPLAY_BRIGHTNESS permission and ability to change screen brightness
• CustomerUI app: Drag & drop apps to create shortcuts (?)
• TestTools app: New diagnostics around LED light and MCU checks
• New app called “BT Transmission” with package name com.szchoiceway.transmitbt, seems to have LOCAL_MAC_ADDRESS permission and a background service. By looking at graphics and labels, functionality appears to be around scanning for and connecting to a USB Bluetooth device, including pairing, using a PIN code, changing volume, etc. There seems to be functionality around upgrading firmware of the Bluetooth module with OTA files, also mentioning “performing the upgrade operation on your mobile phone”
• UpdateMCU app updated with retry mechanism (up to 3 times) and detection of upgrade interruption
• Beware, lost of apps have some new metadata and seem to say they were built for GT7 flavour, even though this firmware is for GT6. Not sure if this could cause some trouble.
