You have to uninstall first.

 

I wonder if there are people from mazda/jci/visteon watching this here ...

 

Just great. :rockon:

For the fun of it I installed the simulator onto a $75 Windows 10 tablet I picked up yesterday for my wife. Works! Now I have to go back to the store to get hers:smile2:.

 

Ha, that's pretty neat. Bluetooth keyboard would rock with that thing.

 

Thanks Andy for the awesome work. I just got a chance to download and setup the environment. Will def have fun looking into this.


Was thinking maybe a shift light indicator app would be cool. Found an example online:

 

Market app is starting to look nice ...

 

Hi, I found the error in another application running in to Opera.
The Android Auto app make that kind of error.

I just unistall the app and anything goes work.

Now I ask another few thinks :
1. I can't retrive all data from the car (eg. Coolant temperature, Outside temperature and other).
It is possible that with my firmware version they have another variable name ?
Does exist somewhere a definition of any variable of the infotainment ?

2. For some reason the GPS data sometimes are not updated and remain with the same value.
There is any way to have a look inside the CMU what remain stuck ?

The project you did is awesome, and i think that make a lot of improvement for the future.
Thanks !!!

 

Yeah - those values are not being broadcasted right now. I have them in the standard tables already however I am still going through the list and try to assess what values make sense to be included in the SDK. There are over 1200 and most of them are garbage or will never be useful in custom applications.

Did you grab the latest runtime? I fixed that issue with the values being stuck.

 

The tool Itself work, I can have the data but they don't refresh.

I have always the same data perhaps more of them are 0.

Can you explain me how to check the running process ?

I try to reboot several times but without success.

Sometimes happens that it works but I can't understand why.
When I turn of the car, also without rebooting the system, the next starting of the car it stop to refresh the data.

 

The link in your OP is broken for:

The runtime SDK with USB installers: [URL="https://github.com/flyandi/mazda-custom-application-sdk/releases/download/0.0.1-alpha/casdk-0.0.1-alpha.zip"]https://github.com/flyandi/mazda-cus....0.1-alpha.zip[/URL]  - also needed for the Simulator.

 

A couple posts later on the thread he provides a functional link.

Updated the runtime with https://github.com/flyandi/mazda-cu...azda-custom-application-sdk/releases/download/0.0.1-alpha/casdk-alpha-0.0.2.zip

I am working hard on the market app, so you don't have to guess anymore. The market app will automatically handle all the versions

 

Exciting! Is there a changelog for 0.0.2 runtime?

 

No changelog - just minor improvements that fixes issues across regions and systems.

 

just tried to deploy versión 0.0.2 with the examples, but after the install message and reboot I get nothing on the apps menú (I have a 16gb SD on the nav port) does the SD needs a special format or do I need to do something else for the apps to show?

Sorry if it has been posted before, this is the forst time I'm trying to deploy them to the car.

 

SSH into the Infotainment and pull out the file /tmp/root/casdk-error.log

 

flyandi,
thanks for your amazing work!

a few questions:
1) i'm going to use an external js (like google maps), but it doesn't work because of runtime.js:2201 - filename = path + filename. I've just added a condition: if (!filename.startsWith("http")). What do you think? Will it work on the CMU?

2) deploying to CMU. Could you describe it more detailed? I found a guide here - https://github.com/flyandi/mazda-custom-application-sdk/wiki/Installation and some steps here https://github.com/flyandi/mazda-custom-application-sdk/wiki/Get-Started. Do I need to use SDCard or it's possible to do with USB flash? Because I have a NAV sd card in my slot.

 

1) Uhh.. do you have an active internet connection on the CMU?

2) Only SD Card is supported for now.

 

I just installed it in my car, but it's a european car and it shows Mph in the simple dashboard app. Is there anything I need to change? It's a Mazda CX-3 EU

 

Hit the center button on your command wheel.. it changes to km/h!

I am adding auto region detection for the next release.

It's in there but not really executed yet.

 

I am not someone who understands coding at all but let me understand this. The work @flyandi has done will allow people to create apps to be shared with the rest of the community or is this something where people are coding and creating apps for only their vehicles?

 

I am releasing a market app that allows you to easily add apps to your infotainment system.

I really want to make it work for everyone as easy as possible.

The early release here helps to uncover bugs right away and get it tested in the real world

Might be not ready for non-tech folks.

 

Apps which come with the car

There are a few Apps which come with car: fuel consumption monitor, service, etc

Does CASDK overwrite them?

How to preserve those apps and have them on App list together with CASDK apps?

I confirm that the first apps on the list are the original one from Mazda and they are full functional.

I'm sure that they will keep untouched. Anything else would be wrong. CASDK is for creating new stuff, not deleting existing.

 

Can someone attach a picture of App menu after installation in your car?
Do you see original and CASDK apps on that list?

 

Is this video showing enough, to believe in?
You had found it with the forum search in a post of flyandi
What are you afraid of? Why should the SDK delete something?

 

vehicle diagnostics data

as to vehicle diagnostics data; from recent tests, do we now which variables show valid data? what are your findings? any list of valid ones?

It would be nice if someone came up with the definitive list as well as the encoding/scaling for them. From what I've seen this does not exist in the CMU probably because it varies by year/model/options/country/firmware etc.

Unless a list is discovered it takes experimentation, testing, logging and driving around to find them. Then you have to take a shot at what units and scaling some of them are in. The attached snapshot is of data I dumped from my CMU after a short drive and as you can see it is not at all intuitive or obvious. Some of the items I was able to discover the scaling for by knowing the trip distance/mileage/odometer reading from the car and looking through the data. A few turned out to not give creditable readings all the time (temperatures was one) for some reason.

These work for sure:
dbus-send --print-reply --address=unixath=/tmp/dbus_service_socket --type=method_call --dest=com.jci.lds.data /com/jci/lds/data com.jci.lds.data.GetPosition

vdm_vdt_current_data:
VehicleSpeed
TransmissionGearPosition
TransmChangeLeverPosition
Out-CarTemperature (Suspect readings)
DR_IntakeAirTemp
As well as many others from this group

vdm:
Drv1AvlFuelE
As well as others from this group

Many other data points in the attached files appear to have valid data but I had no interest in displaying them so I have not looked at the scaling etc.

Maybe you want to build a spreadsheet of these? :smile2:If so be sure and include year/model/options/country/firmware/scaling/encoding etc.

If these custom apps require themselves to be copied to an SD card, does that mean we can't use the built-in navigation system at the same time, since it requires a nav SD card to be inserted?

 

You can copy them on your nav SD card!

 

flyandi, is there a way you could add a disclaimer to the SDK that it's free? Some douches are selling all the apps from the community on the ebay partner Bienvenidos a MercadoLibre

 

What? Can you give me a full link please.

 

Yeah there is not a lot you can do. I release my stuff under GPL v3 - so there are certain safe guards but the code is open and anyone could "steal" it.

The idiot will be the customer in the end because they think they bought a product that is supported. The sad part is also that most consumer don't care either. I just had a friend buying FlightGear (OpenSource SIM) for $199 .. he literally paid $199 for a home burned DVD with a nice label and it didn't even work - the program said to download the latest version from GitHub :-D

Here is the deal - I believe in putting back in the community - if I can just inspire one person here to build a custom app and use that gained knowledge to get better at their job or fire up a passions, etc - I did my job I love doing this stuff and I know it will pay of somehow in the end.

Now back from the philosophy to your issue:

Yeah I don't see your SD Card .. can you actually run "mount" instead of fdisk?

 

Yeah there is not a lot you can do. I release my stuff under GPL v3 - so there are certain safe guards but the code is open and anyone could "steal" it.

I have obfuscated the js embedded with the FREE appdisclaimer/notice using https://javascriptobfuscator.com/. Very hard (though not impossible) for anyone to alter that. Just enough effort needed to discourage them from selling it.

 

Added a Google Sheet for collecting CMU Values:

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lkVUzhLEMglb7eFglne1iDiJ5vKMpaoxXKW-7bSZ6Ws/edit#gid=0

 

When the wifi will work we can make an app to collect all to a central server.

and you did this with an working SDCard in the slot , right?

 

Indeed, it's 16gb class 4 kingstone SD card... I can sense the bad news...

 

Yeah I just don't see it. However, I am experimenting with USB support right now - so there is hope

 

oh well, I'll see if the sealer is willing to check just on me trying to buy an SD Nav Card, I'll be on the watch for the USB support anyway.

 

Wow flyandi this is so amazing. I just created a sample app now. I can't believe this.

Since I have a nav card and I use that often, I am going to wait until usb support for using it regularly but wow this is powerful.

It would be so amazing if there was a way to grab and send data through the internet through the cmu's wifi client. Even simple HTTP or REST API get. This could allow for a whole new dimension for apps like weather, remote control, etc

 

I have nav card too, but I make 2 copy and I store original one at home.

Now I have one in my car and one I use to update app, when I take my car, I swap card.

Nav work well with casdk

And doing this is more safe for your expensive nav card.
