For those of you who wants a different skin for the headunit, link below is for the 2018 Myvi standard headunit using the Lookatoo program for GPS. Also screenshots of the skins. The skins are based from WolfNCU provided to me by @railroad of gpspower. I do not take credit for these. @railroad helped me a lot in getting this to work in my Myvi.

Please do NOT use your original GPS card. Please read thoroughly.

Caveats:

- I will not be responsible if you brick the headunit.
- I will not be responsible if you use the original card and damaged the headunit/SD card.
- I will not be responsible if Perodua nags you about voiding warranty should you forget to replace the SD card to original SD Card when you do your car's scheduled service.

The following works-
- All skins with functioning buttons
- GPS
- Music player. If you want to listen to your own songs, copy them in the MP3 folder. Also, copy the blank audio file ( No Sound.mp3) in the thumbdrive. Select USB from original skin
then press GPS button on headunit. Now i can hear music from the player. If you don't do this, you will hear your music and radio jumbled together.
If you want to listen to radio, just stop/pause your music after selecting radio from the original skin.

Note: If you press the GPS button once, it will run your selected skin. Press GPS button AGAIN will bring you back to original skin.

The following do NOT work-
- Application. Not working if select application from skin. Working if select from quick settings.
- Imageviewer. When selected, only wolf logo appears on white background.
- File explorer is in chinese (File, Option, Exit, etc).

Note:
- If the device hangs, either wait a few minutes or press the reset button under the USB input cover.
- Press the GPS button on headunit BEFORE switching OFF the headunit. If you don't, when you start the car, the headunit will go straight to the selected skin. Sometimes, this will
cause the headunit to hang, sometimes it works fine but no audio.
- I don't know whether bluetooth calls work when you are using this skin. I don't use bluetooth, so I don't know.

How to:
- Download and uncompress the rar file.
- Format new SD card to FAT32.
- Copy all folders as is into the SD card EXCEPT the mp3 file.
- Copy MP3 file ONLY to empty thumbdrive. NO OTHER SONGS SHOULD BE IN THIS THUMBDRIVE.
- Put SD card and thumbdrive into headunit.
- Turn ON headunit/Start the car.
- Select USB and let it start playing the MP3 file.
- Select GPS button.
- Quick settings (the button with the word QUICK) and you can select skins, music in the SD card, etc

Again, all credit to railroad at gpspower

Hi TS, thanks for the hard work.
May i know if playing music through bluetooth connection, can those skins above show the song info like song name, artist, album & etc.?

The stock skin is just shows no info about song playing through bluetooth.

No. It only displays songs from the SD card.

Yes they are. But I prefer this to the stock B&W interface.
