For #1 yes that would be really nice, in the meantime I came up with a work around, write an app where the purpose of the app is to just start an activity and then exit:I would definitely buy the Pro version if key remapping would be improved in the following ways:
I Hope that the author is reading me.
- Allow mapping buttons to any application activity (like Activity Launcher or Nova Launcher does for shortcuts), not just the actions that it has now.
- Allow different button shortcut profiles, and allow changing between profiles with the press / long-press of a button. That way, one could configure a profile where dpad buttons do the standard actions, and another profile to use them to control the head-unit.
Yes it does, my car however did that even without honda hack
For #1, thanks! That's interesting, but too bad that you have to compile an application for each activity you want to launch. :/
You can download launchMap.zip from here:
Well it kinda works. When I turn the car on it opens up to the Garmin home screen (with the "Where To?" and "View Map" buttons), but it doesn't open up directly to the map view.
I have a new app that will launch the map and if it sees the initial screen it will tap on "View Map" to get to the map view. To tell if it's on the initial screen or not, I check the value of a few different pixels, the pixels I check are in the area of the blue push pin. However the background is red on hatchbacks and blue on sedans and I don't know if those pixels are the same exact color between the screen that has the red background and the one with the blue background, so If it doesn't work for you I can walk you through the process to get a screen dump and I can modify the program so it will work with either.
It works for me. I am with honda hack pro from 16 months
