Magister Posted February 8, 2017 Report Share Posted February 8, 2017 You could try this... your F980BT is known as a NX357, so in /etc/sysd.conf in the section <product model="NX357,EU5"> (or model can be ID or UR depending on your country), set those value: <config name="sysdconf.aap.VehicleModel" value="AV Receiver" /> <config name="sysdconf.aap.VehicleMakeYear" value="2016" /> <config name="sysdconf.aap.VehicleMaker" value="Pioneer" /> <config name="sysdconf.aap.HeadUnitMaker" value="Pioneer" /> <config name="sysdconf.aap.HeadUnitModel" value="AV Receiver" /> <config name="sysdconf.com.hasAAP" value="TRUE" /> <config name="sysdconf.cm.OthershasSubOpt" value="TRUE" /> <config name="sysdconf.cm.OthershasUSBOpt" value="TRUE" /> then in /etc/mediamanager.conf, find the section AVN_MID,EU5 (or UR or ID) then add the aap/aapsource to those: <app> <source name="dio" /> <source name="aap" /> </app> <other> <source name="ipod1" /> <source name="ipod2" /> <source name="aapsource" /> </other> Come back to say if this works Quote Link to post Share on other sites
fixed Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 I'm trying to do this to a AVIC-F980DAB. These instructions don't seem to be enough. I've modified the lines above as mentioned (and triple checked I've made no mistakes), the system now gives me the option of Android Auto when I bootup, but the device then goes to a blank screen. Is the same if I select Android Auto or something else. Any ideas of other things to try? Video here: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magister Posted February 14, 2017 Report Share Posted February 14, 2017 no clue sorry :-/ I didn't tested it, it's just something I saw in the *.conf, but it must not be that far to work :-/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GioP Posted August 21, 2017 Report Share Posted August 21, 2017 Hi everyone! Does anybody has a solution for this? I have a f980bt but I didn 't get if it is possible to solve this problem with a custom ROM or some scripting... Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
