Hi, I'm a gtab-newbie here and was wondering if anyone had any luck using either yahoo messenger or oovoo with Vegan-tab 5.1.1. I did spend some time going through the threads and saw some posts about people using Yahoo messenger with video successfully on the forums but was not able to gather if that was on Vegan-tab 5.1.1/Froyo.
For me, voice calls work with Skype etc. But when I try to make a video call with either Yahoo or Oovoo, the video quality is so-so and the audio just makes a loud clicking noise. I also tried Reelportal between a laptop and the gtab and the video and sound both work (although the audio suffered from a lot of echos).
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I went from 3389 stock to Vegan-tab with no modifications since.
Echo will be fixed when Adobe release a new version of AIR that supports echo cancellation. They currently have beta version for the desktop.
What you can do is use Skype for audio, while simultaneously use ReelPortal for video only. The audio and video streams are independent from each other.
I use yahoo for video chat on 5.1.1 with no issues at all

I recently purchased a Color Tiger Anymote Home in hopes of using it, and my 2014 Moto X to voice control my TV and Dish box. This is for my mother, who has macular degeneration and has trouble with remote control buttons. I was hoping all she would have to do is say a launch phrase and then a command, like "OK Moto X, DISH channel 3" I chose the Moto X because it is always listening.
I currently have Tasker and CommandR apps installed on the phone.
Any help setting this up is appreciated.
I recently purchased a 11-RQ0364E-UK-A Pumpkin 8 Inch for my 2010 VW Scirocco. Turned out to be a cracking unit and will likely write up a review for it shortly but in the meantime I've got a few technical issues that I couldn't find answers to on here so would like some help with if possible:
1) I have the option in setting to change steering wheel controls but the buttons don't work here. They work normally to change tracks (except google play music), volume, mute and bluetooth. When I click on the buttons in the menu they flash but then the steering wheel just maintains its same controls as if it doesn't recognize them in the system menu?
2) Google play music does skip / forward next track (or rewind), is there anyway to add these controls?
3) In the standard apps, i.e. radio, DAB, music, the audio will stop / mute if you switch to another system app so there is not layers audio (multiple sources playing simultaneously). This doesn't apply to Google Play Music, is there any way to add this feature?
4)Reversing sensor audio stays on for a good few seconds after operation has completed so you still get the tone. Anyway of shortening this? Or even quietening?
Any help appreciated!
Can anyone clarify whether or not you have the option in Maps to toggle on/off 'Play voice over bluetooth'? I have the VZN S8+.
From my experience, this option was removed last fall with a Maps update. It used to be located right between Play voice during phone calls and Play test sound.
From a different Maps update, Audible and Maps no longer play well together. Audible will pause media playback when Maps is announcing directions, but no sound is produced by Maps. The really poor workaround for this was to de-select Play voice over bluetooth so that when Audible paused, the phone speaker would announce directions. Without the option, i am left with no turn-by-turn directions. Welcome to 2007..
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Hey
So I took delivery of my new Vauxhall Crossland X with Android Auto yesterday. Its great to have a headunit that will work with android auto. However I have a very annoying issue.
Nav, calls and spotify work without issue. However I have recently switched to google play music. Now the app opens and when you press play the track starts progressing and you can see the time line moving, however no sound is coming through.
If I change to spotify it works without issue and I can listen to music, albeit in a lesser sound quality (in my opinion) .
Has anyone else found a fix for this issue?
Appreciate your help.
Best wishes
Andy
AFAIK there's sadly no solution for this yet. I can't post links yet because I'm haven't posted much yet, but if you google for "Play music not working on android auto" you'll find a thread in the Google product forums.
Seems to be a Huawei specific problem...
It most certainly is a Huawei issue for which they have no answer. My issue isn't with Android Auto but the Google play music app is glitchy on my car stereo. The album art is from the first song that played the first time I connected the phone to my car and it hasn't changed since. The native music app and spotify have no such issue. I think it has to do with the lack of integration. The play music app's colour should match the album art in the drop down (since Oreo 8.0) but it's just a big orange box. There's definitely something wrong with Huawei's play music.

Installing equalizer from Play store (equalizer by Smart Android apps) make sure eq is ON, and stays on, skip to next song and now Android Auto works.
But first:
Remove and clear data from Android Auto, reboot
Clear all Bluetooth devices from car, and under system in your car remove Android Play devices.
Clean fresh set-up.

Wow, this finally seemed to fix it. I installed the app and reset the Android Auto settings and it's now working again. Thanks a lot!
I gave up before seeing this last post - I sold my p20 pro and bought a pixel 2 xl - have to say it worked straight away and the sound quality on android auto is better too. Gutted Ive lost the p20 pro camera as that was amazing but its nice to have a clean stock phone again. Lets hope the pixel 3 xl has the 3 camera setup that my p20 pro had.
Do I have to leave equaliser on permanently or just for the initial reset of android auto?

EQ option turns on automatically everytime I open Google music
Same issue with Oneplus 6 and Vivo V9. Apart from plethora of issues this issue is the most annoying.
Other issues- Music stops playing and then suddenly resume from beginning of song, Blank screen, no voice control(it used to work before), Whatapps messages are not read(used to work before)
When you try and send a message through voice does it go "uh, something went wrong"?
