Tips for Multi DPI
- Read this post for some DPI fix for S View cover
- To set 320/360/400/430/480(stock) you just have to select it from while you flashing ROM. You can also change DPI without flashing ROM too. But just remember to clear data for TouchWiz from Setting - general-App manager-All-TouchWiz.
- Tab Setting view is available in Aroma but I recommend to use it on 320 DPI otherwise it may looks ugly and sometime difficult to read all options.
- Launcher rotation you can achieve with xposed. 1. Install Xposed framework 2. Install application setting xposed module 3.enable module in frmaework 4. Open App setting module and search for Launcher - select Force Auto rotation - save - reboot device.
- Gallery can be fixed with 480 DPI setting with xposed app setting module.

Manual smart Power save - This is advanced power saving mode. you can manually activate anytime. This will restrict CPU to much lower level as well disconnect all radio,disable Active Sync, restrict BG process. If you have active connection with wifi/data when you activate this mod then it will enable data/wifi every 30min for 2min depends on wifi/data connection. e.g. If data connection was active while you activate this mode it will use data connection to check periodically. Also note that if you have activated Auto power save (read below) this mod will auto switch off auto connection and exiting manual mode, your auto mode will be activated again. Also note that when you exit manual mod all your radio and status like GPS,Wifi,Mobile data,Auto sync will be restored to previous stat when you have activated this mode.
This mod is idle when you want to save battery.
Auto Power saving mod - This is same as above said power saving mod but it will auto activate if your battery level goes below 25%. If you activate this mod while manual mod is ON, it will disable manual mode. This is idle for day to day use and will affect only battery level goes near critical.
CPU Ondemand Govern - This will use on demand govern for CPU and can be used day to day. May be you can feel slight less responsive while playing high ram using games. Truly i didn't notice much difference and can be used routinely, recommended to everyone for normal usage. Still you can deactivate any time when you needs full CPU.
If you are using CPU On demand govern and manually activate power saving mode OR If you have selected Auto power saving mode and battery level reach to 25% then CPU On demand govern will be suspended automatically and will be restored once you exit from power saving mode.
Tasks
Long press icon to apply.

IntSD fix - SOmetime you can't read/write on SD card (int/Ext) you can use this utility to fix issue
Flash Recovery
Flash Kernel
Flash Modem
You needs to put raw file on intSD root directory. like if you want to flash any modem, just extract modem.bin and keep in root directory of InntSD and long press Flash Modem icon and reboot. same way for recovery use recovery.img and for kernel use boot.img
Auto Scan This will Auto scan only while your device connected to AC charge. and disable when you remove from AC wall charger.
This is helpful to reduce battery consumption

[5.0+]Sloth - Profile Scheduler - Manage your phone

Hello,
It's high time to publish my first beta release publicly of my app.
This app is currently designed for devices running Android Marshmallow and newer, backwards compatibility to Lollipop is going to be added in the next update. There is no Intro yet - work in progress.
REMEMBER YOU'RE USING THIS APP ON YOUR OWN RISK!
FUNCTIONS, ABOUT APP
The point is this app is to allow user to control when the hardware functions such as WiFi, Bluetooth etc are going to be turned off/on. In the current release there are 7 avaible functions:
5 for all devices, 2 for rooted devices.
In actions that contain "on/off" you have to specific exact action by clicking on the spinner to choose whether action is going to make a function on or off. If you don't do that, the default one will be choosen.
- Turn WiFi on/off: this sets up an alarm to turn WiFi on or off
- Turn off/on Bluetooth
- Turn off/on account sync
- Change screen brightness: 3 options avaible: dark screen, bright screen and custom value with preview avaible. You can modify dark and bright values in the settings (swipe from the edge right in the main layout of the app).
- Set loud/silent/ do not disturb mode: sets a specified volume mode
Root actions:
- Turn off device
- Reboot device
You will be asked for root permission, unless you give the permission action will not be either saved and performed.
PERMISSIONS:
In the first launch you will be asked to disable battery optimisation for this app, if you don't disable it may not work properly.
In the brightness section, you will be asked for allowing app to modify system settings - it's required to change brightness by the app.
Another permission you will be asked is to allow app to modify notifications - it's required if you would like to change phone volume mode (exactly do not disturb).
To delete planned actions:
There are currently 4 methods to delete planned actions, but the only one is to cancel the action:
- In upcoming events section, click on trash and then select items to delete and then hit trash one more time to delete
- Swipe left on item to delete
- Hit on the trash button, then click delete all
Those methods DO NOT cancel pending action
To cancel pending action:
- Click on an item you want to cancel, the editor will pop up
- Hit on the trash button, then the action will be canceled and item deleted.
Changelog:
Version 1.1:
- Optimised navigation drawer
- Fixed bluetooth service that did not update alarm

If I put a future date in a profile, will it be repeated daily until that date? If not, how can I create a profile and repeat it daily? Thank you

I had a some issues in implementing repeat feature (likey in specific day) so current alarms are fired one time only.
So, currently there is no way to repeat alarms automaticly, only by creating a new one.
Anyway, I've added this to my todo list. I hope you will be able to use this feature by the next update
Hi, thanks for your work and the new features. Can you add that days of the week you want a created profile to be activated / deactivated ?. Thank you very much.
@jordipz working on that! Should be updated soon!
Thank you very much for the update.
I can see in my service app that airplane mode on/off exist.
Can you active this option?
Yes I was about to do, but I focused on making repeating alarms at first.
Now I'm taking up for modifying UI and adding non-root required services (e.g turning airplane mode, mobile data etc needs root access).

A set of modifications with the management of settings through the application offlin

A set of modifications with the management of settings through the application offline settings
Installation
Code:
You can install both on the official firmware, and on the custom one, if on the custom one, then just select the necessary items except the magisk item
For official:
1. Flash through the official firmware odin
2. Then I personally go into the stock recovery and do two wipe - cache and date / factor, then turn it off and into firmware mode
3. From the firmware mode according to the model, flash through odin twrp from here
4. After logging in to TWRP, you can make the format date yes and reboot the recovery, but not necessarily if you have done point 2. - after (if there is no memory card - connect the phone to the computer and drop it into memory) throw the Mod + Al_pie_odex_ script into memory
5. Installing Mod + Al_pie_odex_ without wipes with a choice at this stage of the magisk item and settings without additional functions - reinstall the firmware
6. After reinstallation, some modifications are not applied, so once again we make a choice from the Mod + Al_pie_odex_ script and additionally install the dialer modification, but do not select the magisk item and do not enter the magisk, select settings without additional functions
7. After reinstallation for optimization and verification can be done through the settings - Reset data, the phone must re-install the firmware, but not necessarily
8. Now you can make settings with built-in additional functions and configure magisk (a magisk will appear in the menu, which will prompt you for actions)
9. To manage modifications (if you didn’t choose the built-in settings) install AutoSet_Mod + Al_pie_

Other changes aimed at improving stability and usability.
A lot of work has been done to provide support for new Android 9 firmware, although this is not visible from the outside.
The ideas of some improvements are taken from the module xposed-mtce-utils and other modules with permission of the author, MVG-V70. Thank him very much for that.
But implemented without using the Xposed framework.
Installation:
When switching from any other firmware, user data will be cleared automatically!
When upgrading from a previous version, wipe data is not required. But it is recommended if there are any problems.
For stable operation of the device, it is recommended to update the MCU firmware to the latest: 3.40 and higher, or to the latest version available for your device
You can obtain the MCU firmware from the seller of your HU or search in cs-x collection
Update from Android 9:
The installation is similar to a regular firmware update
Copy the firmware file update.zip to a USB flash drive / SD memory card formatted in FAT32
Insert a USB flash drive / SD memory card into the device
In the window that appears, click "Install"
After installation, the device will automatically restart one more time to complete the installation of Magisk.
When installing from a SD memory card, installation may take longer!
Update from Android 6, 8:
Requires updating the recovery version to Android 9
Simple and safe way: Use the application ModInstaller Pro (link to the application in the readme.txt file, which is located in the archive with the firmware or in my signature at the bottom of this post)

Update from Android 8 with saving data:
Only for PX5 devices!
The archive contains 2 special packages that can be used to switch from Android 8 without data loss
Connect to the HU with Android 8 firmware (Mod v3.x) one USB flash drive formatted in FAT32.
There should be enough free space on the flash drive to save the device’s internal storage
Install the package update.zip from the folder backup8 from the same flash drive or from the SD card
A multivolume archive with your data (userdata*) will be created on the USB flash drive.
Install mod v4.x by the method above
After the full installation of Android 9, connect a USB flash drive with archive to the HU
Install the package update.zip from the folder restore9 from the same flash drive or from the SD card
Reboot the HU.
The first boot of Android 9 after restoring the archive from Android 8 may last longer than usual. The system needs time to convert data
This method does not guarantee full functionality of all third-party applications that were installed in Android 8.
If you encounter any problems - reset device to factory settings
Additions:
EasyConnected from stock firmware
Automatic backlight control for PX5-based head units

FAQ:
Q: How to get OTA updates?
A: Information is on my site. You will find the link in the archive with firmware or in my signature at the bottom of this post
Q: How to automatically install my applications after installing the firmware?
A: Create the hct folder on the flash drive with the firmware, the apk folder in it and put your apk in it. They will be automatically installed after the installing the firmware.
Q: How to connect the OBD adapter?
A: This can be done both from the Bluetooth application, and from the Bluetooth item in the settings. The main thing - before you click on the adapter found, you must wait until the scan finished. Wait until the spinning circle disappears in the Bluetooth application or until the inscription "Search..." changes to the inscription "Refresh" in Settings. Then pairing goes smoothly. If the phone is already connected, you will need to temporarily disconnect it.
Q: How to start any application from a button on the steering wheel?
A: Mod settings - Manage applications - Applications that run instead of the stock . Assign any of the six applications that you don’t use to the button, then choose a replacement for it in the form of some kind of player, for example. This button will start your player
Q: Bluetooth MD725 does not work, although everything worked in Android 6!
A: If the MD725 type 2 Bluetooth module is installed in your HU, then it will not work in Android 9. The reason is that its driver was removed from Android 9.
Q: How do I know if I have such a Bluetooth module?
A: On the first page of the factory settings, in item BT, MD725 is selected. The getprop bt.md725.type command executed in the terminal answers "2"
Solution: replace the module with type 1
Q: Bluetooth SD-968 does not work, although everything worked in Android 8!
A: If the SD-968 Bluetooth module with firmware made in March 2017 or earlier is installed in your HU, then it works in Android 8, but does not work in Android 9.
Solution: replace the module driver /system/bin/sdsdk968 with the old version. Do not forget to set permissions 755 on the file.
Or replace the module with another type
Known Issues:
Mod is a modified factory firmware.
I can only be responsible for the changes in the device that I made. All of them are listed in the "List of changes" section.
Everything else, both good and bad, is inherited from the factory firmware.
I try to fix bugs found in the stock, but this I can’t always do it.
If you do not agree with this, do not install this firmware.
On some devices with a PX5 processor, the screen backlight sometimes does not turn on after exiting sleep mode.
After rebooting the device with the RST button or turning off the ignition for about 20-30 seconds, it continues to work.
The same problem exists on the stock and on newer version of the stock

Nice to see a dedicated English thread for this ROM here.Been waiting for this for a long time.
In regard to the ROM, nothing to say because it´s amazing. Been using this since Dec and have only had a black screen twice till date. With the stock Rom, i have this every week. So this is an improvement.
the only issue i have is my default music player 50% of the time dont automatically continue playing after waking up from sleep.
Good job Hal9k
Congratulations @Hal9k_ for this fantastic ROM....glad to know the english thread finally is here..

Thanks for starting new thread for Mod 4
Like to give some infos and suggestions about the newest Mod 4. My headunit is a PX5 from Dasaita with 4GB/32GB. Originally bought with Android 8. Installed in a Honda HRV 2016.
Until now I've found some issues in this rom. Generally it's working really well.
radio app: the field for the RDS text is imho too small. No chance to get any info from this tiny scrolling text while driving. Better redesign the app and place the RDS text below the frequency band with full width (see screenshot).
radio app: in night mode the additional settings (stereo, local, FMx..) in the right circle, where the frequeny or channel name is visible, cannot be seen because the fontcolor doesn't change with day/night mode. It's the same darkgrey like in day mode (see screenshot).
screen saver: the font for speed and volume looks very digitally ugly (old style) and is hard to read. Better use the same font like for the time.
sleep mode. I used the auto sleep mode to get the fast boot up. But now I had to replace a 10 month old battery of the car. Seems the rom takes to much energy while sleeping? Can you check this to be sure it's no problem in the rom? In the moment I'm using the complete shutdown to avoid problems. Also other people mentioned this topic.

Extra "type" = "key"
Extra "value" = button code.
Other changes aimed at improving stability and usability.
A lot of work has been done to provide support for new Android 9 firmware, although this is not visible from the outside.
The ideas of some improvements are taken from the module xposed-mtce-utils and other modules with permission of the author, MVG-V70. Thank him very much for that.
But implemented without using the Xposed framework.
Installation:
When switching from any other firmware, user data will be cleared automatically!
When upgrading from a previous version, wipe data is not required. But it is recommended if there are any problems.
For stable operation of the device, it is recommended to update the MCU firmware to the latest: 3.40 and higher, or to the latest version available for your device
You can obtain the MCU firmware from the seller of your HU or search in cs-x collection
Update from Android 9:
The installation is similar to a regular firmware update
Copy the firmware file update.zip to a USB flash drive / SD memory card formatted in FAT32
Insert a USB flash drive / SD memory card into the device
In the window that appears, click "Install"
After installation, the device will automatically restart one more time to complete the installation of Magisk.
When installing from a SD memory card, installation may take longer!
Update from Android 6, 8:
Requires updating the recovery version to Android 9
Simple and safe way: Use the application ModInstaller Pro (link to the application in the readme.txt file, which is located in the archive with the firmware or in my signature at the bottom of this post)
Complicated and unsafe way: look for information in this thread
Update from Android 8 with saving data:
Only for PX5 devices!
The archive contains 2 special packages that can be used to switch from Android 8 without data loss
Connect to the HU with Android 8 firmware (Mod v3.x) one USB flash drive formatted in FAT32.
There should be enough free space on the flash drive to save the device’s internal storage
Install the package update.zip from the folder backup8 from the same flash drive or from the SD card
A multivolume archive with your data (userdata*) will be created on the USB flash drive.
Install mod v4.x by the method above
After the full installation of Android 9, connect a USB flash drive with archive to the HU
Install the package update.zip from the folder restore9 from the same flash drive or from the SD card
Reboot the HU.
The first boot of Android 9 after restoring the archive from Android 8 may last longer than usual. The system needs time to convert data
This method does not guarantee full functionality of all third-party applications that were installed in Android 8.
If you encounter any problems - reset device to factory settings

Fantastic work @Hal9k_
I've just had a look at your website and saw the below, which seems to suggest that this base version is free, but to receive updates, you must pay; that is all (OTA) updates are paid for - is that correct? Or will you be releasing updates here, without payment? Please clarify.

I agree in 100%. The radio player is a definite failure. I did not think that there could be a worse radio application than the one I had pre-installed, and it seems that it could be worse. In addition, the whole due to the low contrast between panels / fonts gives the impression as if it was created in low resolution.

On the russian forum is clear. This thread is just a replica of the russsian one ...but in english.
Only 4.0.0 version is free.
All the upgrades will be in form of OTA updates and only paying the 10usd (one unique payment) you can be able to get them.
If major update (like android 10) comes...I suppose he will create a mod 5.0.0 for free and OTA updates again by the same previous subscription (no other payment for 5.x.x upgrades if you were subscribed to 4.x.x)
Am I correct?

This will be coincidence rather than cause. Was the battery flat at any time? Can leave my car sitting idle for weeks with auto sleep mode and the battery holds just fine. Auto sleep mode hardly consumes power.
Thank you very much for opening a thread where the px6 is included with this Rom, I have installed the full version and so far it is luxurious, until now and since I put it on, I have not observed any fault attributable to the Hal9k, I have a fault but it is hardware already that for a while and for no apparent reason, it crashes when starting, it remains in the cameras without any speed stuck in the car, then it returns with normal operation and occasionally the camera comes out again.
As I have been able to verify, it gives me that it is the motherboard, I have already spoken with the Chinese and, in guarantee, it sends it to me.
With respect to hal9k, as I said, everything is correct, right now without failures.
Many thanks to hal9k for making a good rom and to @ segu45 in this case for their Spanish translations.
Sorry for my English
Greetings.

Well, as I understand it, it is as you indicate, you pay € 10 and the updates that come will no longer have to make any more payments.
I do not know if when I can Android 10 if it is possible, we will have to pay again since I understand that it will be a full Rom and not a mod.
However, as far as I know, with that one payment, for the moment everything that is going out, is coming via OTA to all those who have paid.
Greetings.
With version 4.0.1, I can continue to play audio even when switching to AV In. However, when I get out of AV In my SWC for skipping songs no longer works. Only restarting the unit fixes the problem. I'm on a PX6 unit for reference
@Manfred.62
I'll think about the Radio app
I didn't change anything about sleep mode.
@marchnz
There, on the site, it is written:
The code will continue to work all the time while I make updates for this version of the Mod.
"this version" is Mod v4.
Perhaps in the future a new free version will be released with all the changes that will be made by then, if a new version of the stock firmware appears and I decide to do it. But I can’t promise it for sure.
@ikerg
The thread is dedicated to Mod v4. Won't look that far.
@scoote2014
I usually reply to emails in the evening, Moscow time.
@mrtony95
Tony, I read in my email that you've already done everything yourself. Is that so ?
@Realistichat
I couldn't reproduce it. Make a video
I have a problem with the installation of the update. I have a px5 MTCE device, unfortunately it throws out an error as in the picture.
Does anyone have any idea how to solve it?

Hi,,
"rk3368" is PX6... so you have downloaded the mod for PX6-Devices, but you own a PX5-Device. Download the right package, copy it to your USB or SD ans install

If you have device lock enabled in the Settings, then you need to turn it off before installing this update.
Added an alternative GPS driver for the U-blox chip
The accuracy of determining the geoposition in an open area reaches 0.5m
Due to the use of AssistNow Autonomous, the search time for satellites has been significantly reduced
And if you have access to the Internet while booting or exiting sleep mode, then this time becomes even less due to A-GPS
It is possible to use an external USB GPS receiver based on a U-blox chip. For example, TOPGNSS GNSS803G (aka GN-803G)
For owners of a HU on the PX30, this is an opportunity to get a perfectly working GPS, the same as on the PX5 and PX6
GPS Test correctly displays all types of satellites

Possibility of increasing the frequency of measurements of geo-position in 10 times. Navigation apps respond more quickly to changes in course or vehicle speed
The lag of the marker from the real position is reduced to a minimum, which means that navigation applications inform about the upcoming maneuver earlier
AssistNow Autonomous positioning acceleration is enabled. Cold start of the GPS receiver takes about a minute
A dynamic navigation model is set - for cars, not for phones, as set by default
Any differential correction satellites are used
You can select the measurement frequency for the GPS receiver: 1,2,5 and 10 Hz
Can use BeiDou satellites instead of Glonass (only for PX5 and PX6)
Unfortunately, not all of this works for PX30 devices as they have a less functional GPS receiver chip
Added GPS chip reset to factory settings when GPS receiver Advanced setting is disabled. Actual for PX30
The rules for distributing processes by processor cores have been changed. This had a positive effect both on the operation of the system as a whole and on the operation of GPS.

How do I install the firmware?
When switching from any other firmware, you need to wipe user data!
For stable operation of the device, it is recommended to update the MCU firmware to the current one, released in March 2021 or later.
If there is no such firmware for your device, use the latest available one.
MCU firmware can be obtained from your radio dealer or look here
MTCE versions can be installed instead of MTCD
If you have Android 10 installed:
The installation is similar to a regular firmware update:
Copy the firmware file update.zip to a USB flash drive / memory card formatted in FAT32
Connect the USB flash drive / memory card to the device
Set the "Wipe data ..." checkbox and click the "Install" button in the window that appears.
After installation, the device will automatically reboot one more time to complete the Magisk installation.
Installing from a SD memory card may take longer!
If you have Android 9, 8 or 6 installed:
Requires updating the recovery version to Android10
Simple and safe way: Use the ModInstaller Pro application (link to the application in the readme.txt file, which is located in the archive with the firmware or in my signature at the bottom of this post)
Complicated and unsafe way: look for information on this forum
Additions:
Automatic backlight control for PX5-based head units
Internet speed in status bar
Spoiler: FAQ
Q: How to get OTA updates?
A: Information is on my site. You will find the link in the archive with firmware or in my signature at the bottom of this post
Q: How to automatically install my applications after installing the firmware?
A: Create the hct folder on the flash drive with the firmware, the apk folder in it and put your apk in it. They will be automatically installed after the installing the firmware.
Q: How to connect the OBD adapter?
A: This can be done both from the Bluetooth application, and from the Bluetooth item in the settings. The main thing - before you click on the adapter found, you must wait until the scan finished. Wait until the spinning circle disappears in the Bluetooth application or until the inscription "Search..." changes to the inscription "Refresh" in Settings. Then pairing goes smoothly. If the phone is already connected, you will need to temporarily disconnect it.
Q: How to start any application from a button on the steering wheel?
A: Mod settings - Manage applications - Applications that run instead of the stock . Assign any of the six applications that you don’t use to the button, then choose a replacement for it in the form of some kind of player, for example. This button will start your player
Q: Bluetooth MD725 does not work, although everything worked before!
A: If the MD725 Bluetooth module is installed in your HU, then it will not work in Android 10. The reason is that its driver was removed from Android 10.
Q: How do I know if I have such a Bluetooth module?
A: On the first page of the factory settings, in item BT, MD725 is selected.
Q: Bluetooth SD-968 does not work, although everything worked in Android 8!
A: If the SD-968 Bluetooth module with firmware made in March 2017 or earlier is installed in your HU, then it works in Android 8, but does not work in Android 9 and 10.
Solution: replace the module driver /system/bin/sdsdk968 with the old version. Do not forget to set permissions 755 on the file.
Or replace the module with another type
Q: Unable to connect to some WiFi access points. (iOS 15)
A: Read this post
Spoiler: Known Issues
Bluetooth module MD725 not working in Android 10
When installing WebView and Chrome versions 101.x.x.x, crashes occur in these applications as well as in other applications that use WebView.
Fixed in version 5.2.0
Mod is a modified factory firmware.
I can only be responsible for the changes in the device that I made. All of them are listed in the "List of changes" section.
Everything else, both good and bad, is inherited from the factory firmware.
I try to fix bugs found in the stock, but this I can’t always do it.
If you do not agree with this, do not install this firmware.

Thanks for your work, it will be fun to try your Android 10 ROM.
Thank you !! To get the OTA updates we need to pay again to get them or it’s available for those who previously bought the ota updates for android 9 ? Thank you
Great thanks for update
About BT limitations: what about SD BC6? On my px30 android 9, only BC6 is working on factory settings but in android 10 I always got crashes with BT calls
Will give a try to answer by myself lol
(Edit) OMG it's working...no more crashes! Thanks
(Edit2) No finaly, after a few calls, I have same crashes... android 10 is definitely not for px30 and BC6 BT module

Code from v4 is not working ofc... and Hal9k 's site is not updated yet, I don't see mod5 there
Thank you for your work. I was really looking forward to this release. How can one upgrade to 5.0.1 via OTA? There is no possibility for this on hal9k's own homepage. There you can only pay for the OTA of mod4
Does the rom have Delay function in the EQ? I have a Dasaita and with the last update the Delay function is gone
So, we have to wait that @Hal9k_ update the site for to buy the code for next OTA after 5.0?
Someone installed V5.0 by SD on PX5, works well? It's faster than V4.2.1?
Thanks

Try WQ instead of SD.

Hi,
thanks for the ModV5!
I have an issue with the SD card: it seems the Dasaita MAX6 recognize it, but the SD can't be read neither formatted.
I had same issue with Malaysk rom A10, instead with Hal9k modV4 it works well.
I was waiting for this! It works perfectly so far. Even Bluetooth internet with the iPhone is working (if not using carplay).
Only i'd recommend using another link for the MCU updates. On the 4PDAforum the download links did not work.
As soon as you update your website i'll make the OTA payment.
Keep it up!
As always, Great work Hal!
Installed flawlessly in about 5 minutes. Everything is working much more smoothly than stock.
Thanks!

Thanks for you answer. It's a bad story since I tried a lot of android 10.
So I tried WQ BC6, it's the same BUT good news ! I think the problem is ViperFX because I removed from Magisk and it is working (like this morning when I installed clean V5 without V4a)
I removed "Bluetooth internet sharing" too in "factory settings / other" so I'm not sure at 100%...
If it help anyone with this problem, I will test more but I make 8/10 calls w/o problem since 15 minutes.
(Edit) sh.... I closed the car and tried again 10 minutes later ... crash and reboot again (after 3 seconds of call) grrrr
