MtcdTools includes functionality of SpotifyKeys so you can uninstall it.
Tried it, does not work with my music app named doubleTwist

Hi,
I tested it a minute ago on my device and it works for me (I listened to mp3 files on my SD card using doubleTwist). Have you bound key codes to NEXT/PREV/TOGGLE PLAY actions? Could you please provide a screenshot of "Edit existing bindings" screen?
Works perfectly for me on Spotify. I notice you called it MTCD tools rather then Music Player tools or similar? Do you have aspirations for it beyond just music?
If so I was wondering if the launch function could be expanded to support intents. For example I use AutoMate Dashboard which has different menus so to flick over to maps screen rather then maps I would need to use an intent.
com.bitspice.automate.EXIT_APP = Exit the app
com.bitspice.automate.MAP_SCREEN = Launch the maps screen
com.bitspice.automate.PHONE_SCREEN = Launch the phone screen
com.bitspice.automate.HOME_SCREEN = Launch the home screen
com.bitspice.automate.MUSIC_SCREEN = Launch the music screen
com.bitspice.automate.SHORTCUT_SCREEN = Launch the shortcut screen
com.bitspice.automate.VOICE_SCREEN = Launch the voice input screen
I'll try with an mp3 shortly but I was trying the radio streaming feature in doubleTwist, when in that mode, the on screen back button rewinds, which may not be the same as the "previous" button intent your app sends.
I assume this works for PowerAmp too... ? Thank you
Donated thanks for the app!
I just tried with MP3's in doubleTwist - still not working. I only have two bindings for steering wheel control buttons.
NEXT - 300
PREV - 299

I have checked the radio streaming and it works as you mentioned - next/prev on the screen has 'seeking' behavior. I will try to simulate these buttons in my app and check again.
Btw. In doubleTwist player settings I see something like 'steering using headphones' (I have Polish language set and it is 1:1 translation). Try to switch it on/off and check in case of mp3 playback steering.
I will try this with Neutron and report. Thanks

Yes the setting is called "Headset/Car Controls" and it's inside categories / player settings, however toggling it on or off makes no difference. Unfortunately it still won't work.
Can confirm "Radioplayer - Free UK Radio" works as well, skips between radio stations fine.
I can confirm that it works great with the Neutron app..
BUT...
I need to open the MTCD tools each time I use the head unit or else it wont work.

You mean it does not start automatically after boot up? Is your device completely shutdown or just sleep?

If start my car, play music in Neutron and open the MTCDtolls app and go back to the already running Neutron app, it works, so I still enjoy your work

30 min.
IE: This evening I parked my car at the mall at 7:30PM and went shopping. At 8:45PM I started my car and steering wheels were not working (until I reopened MTCDtools app)

I think I can reproduce this issue. I will try to prepare a correction today's evening.
Factory settings shows that AirCon con be controlled but I have no app to do it. Does anyone have the APK file for it? or how do I change using onscreen controls?

I think all can bus decoder stuff is controlled by car configuration app. But only will appear those things that the canbus box is capable of decoding.

In settings Air Con option is there and enabled, and other units 10" portrait type have the option on the main screen.
Hi,
In the GPS settings, there is the possibility to choose one GPS App, so the current audio is muted while the GPS app is giving its audio output. Is there any opportunity to add multiple apps to this list?

Not currently, no.
Iam using blitzer.de (mobile radar) + tomtom both working with gps and i can still listen to music with player pro
You can use any gps software you want..but there is a function controlled by MCU in which GPS instructions can be mixed (the % of mixing can be set up)with android sound.
For that feature only one gps application can be selected

That is the feature I mean, but if this is controlled by the MCU I think it will be impossible to do some mods to that
MTCE_HLA_3.53_1
New to the unit and installed in my Mini Cooper 2007. Had a good read around the found and lots of interesting things for a newbie but not found anything clear enough for my questions.
1) Can I set the unit to display MPH rathe than Km/h on the home screen?
2) My steering wheel controls work for the stock music and radio apps (mute, next, previous) but do not work in any 3rd party apps like Poweramp, Spotify or AutoPlay (Apple CarPlay dongle). Please can someone explain how to enable this?
Many thanks for all the info and hard work in these forums.
Managed to resolve #2. For for anyone else who searches later.
Head into factory settings. Password for HLA was m123456
Other tab
Changed steering wheel control to can key
Save and reboot.
Steering wheel controls app then appeared in my apps list and was very easy to assign keys.
