Jesus... This is pretty darn handy for school.
Testing it now!
very handy...wish this had been around sooner as I bought Tasker and configured a bunch of profiles to serve the same purpose as what this app seems to do much more simply. Looks great
Not bad
How about Touchdown support? That would make this incredibly handy for Exchange users!

Touchdown actually does not sync anything to the device.
since this app read local synced events it can't read Touchdown settings or data (events for that matter).
If you wish to use Exchange calendar you can always sync your exchange account to the device using ActiveSync like this
settings -> accounts and sync -> add account -> Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
once you synced you device this app will be able to read Exchange calendar.
anyway thanks for the advice and ill try to add support for remote Exchange
update:
i added an "add new calendar account " button in settings for those who don't have their account configured
I bought the full version but just can't get it to work.
I went to "Events list" and pressed menu > Update from calendar, and I can see all my events in the list. But it just says "will schedule - event".
Then I go to the "Filters list" and see "all. schedule", yet my phone does not go silent when my events start.
The on/off button is very confusing. When the button is red and says "off", does it mean that it is off, or that I should press it if I wish to turn it off?
Thanks!

Hi.
the on/off button indicate the current state, meaning when the button is green and it's say "on" that mean that auto schedule is enabled
"all schedule" is the default filter that indicate that all events will be scheduled.
please pay attention that even event will be scheduled automatically only if the on/off button is in "on" state.
Pay attention that Calendar Silencer will not schedule events that already in progress, for example if you have event that start in 12:00 and you started the auto schedule in 12:05 the event will not be schedule.
if you enabled notifications please notice that the notification will disappear once the event has started, pressing the notification will clear the notification but also will cancel the alarm
let me know if have any more problems
Still nothing.

What am I missing?
MIUI rom HTC Desire.
*edit*
It was MIUIs fault, thanks for the support Swarly!
The app now works brilliantly! Highly recommended!
fix for MIUI Rom
Disable option Settings>Programs>Calls>Anti wiretapping and it should work
I've been using a different app that seems to have this same feature set, and has been around longer.
How is this better than other competing apps that perform the same functions?

I cant compare these competing apps you are talking about because i don't know exactly what apps are you talking about .
I can answer you this:
before i wrote this app i looked in the market for something that will fulfill these requirements:
easy to use
work with synced calendars like exchange or Gmail calendar
will have to option to fire and forget
i downloaded several apps including paid ones and I couldn't find what i was looking for.
the ones that was simple couldn't work with synced calendars.
and those who could work with synced calendars were overkill ( profile apps that could do almost anything ) were to complicated to operate and demanded a lot of configurations and frustration.
So I decided to do my best to fulfill the goals i wrote to myself and try to keep it as simple as possible .
Because I cant look at every tool/app that exist in the market there may be an app out there that does serve the same functionality , but odds are that it either not do exactly the same or is a lot more complicated then this one.
Regards
Swarly
error during level 2
i've been using tasker but recently i starder cleaning my app list and noticed that i was using a mighty appp like tasker for just silencing the phoe when i was "busy" in my calendar.
i found your app which probably does what i want but i got intro trouble with it. i get an error when i try to turn it on (error during level 2) and the app crashes when i want to switch to the events tab (second tab).
also i haven't been able to test the filter option: i just want my phone to go silent when o am "busy" in the calendar - that's it. does the filter option allow for such a setup?
I've been looking for something like this since I first got an android phone THanks!

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
Additions:
EasyConnected from stock firmware
Automatic backlight control for PX5-based head units
Internet speed in status bar
Autostart applications
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.

Frequency of measurements of geolocation increased by 10 times. Navigation apps respond faster to changes in course or speed
The lag of the marker from the real position is reduced to the minimum, which means that navigation applications report faster about the upcoming maneuver
Enabled positioning acceleration AssistNow Autonomous. A cold start of the GPS receiver takes about one minute.
A dynamic navigation model is set - for cars, not for phones, as set by default
Any differential correction satellites are used
Unfortunately, not all of this works for PX30 devices, since they have a less functional GPS receiver chip
Updated GPS Test Plus application (see screenshot). The satellites marked in circles are GPS on the left of the screen and Galileo on the right
Ability to configure the speed of the USB OTG port (USB 2.0 or USB 1.1). This allows you to remove clicks that interfere with listening to music via USB DAC.

In the latter case, this question will no longer appear, a new launcher will always be used.
To install launcher widgets, you must:
Install .apk widgets and launcher
Add any widget to your desktop
Give permission (see screenshot).
Delete the launcher and reinstall (or clear the launcher data)
For Tasker fans, the ability to assign the numbers 1-9, 0, and the symbols * and # to the steering wheel buttons has been added.
Intent = "com.microntek.report.event"
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
Additions:
EasyConnected from stock firmware
Automatic backlight control for PX5-based head units
Internet speed in status bar
Autostart applications
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 [color = darkblue] getprop bt.md725.type [/color] 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

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?

Sorry for english
Right, i think it was 10 Dollars, then you get a serial wich you have to set to get OTA-updates.
I have payd both, Malaysk an Hal9k_ because both have deserved it.

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.

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

Launchers are installed as updates to the built-in launcher
If there are widgets next to the launcher, then you first need to install them, and then the launcher
To uninstall launcher updates, use Mod Settings > Application Management > Uninstall Launcher Updates
Added support for devices with a rotating screen
Added tiles in the notification bar to disable the Ethernet interface and reboot the device
Added the ability to launch the screen saver and video player using the buttons on the steering wheel

Spoiler: 5.0.2 ОТА-package (10.11.2021) update size about 10Mb
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.
GPS starts working normally about a minute after waking up from prolonged sleep mode

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

I do not have such a module, but the test participants did not notice any problems with it.
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
