Anyone used the modded QdLink app from https://github.com/weljoan/qdlink-android

Is it ok/safe? I saw few pages back got mention malware/trojan?
*
Up to you.
The person saying it has malware/trojan may be related to the X50 modded version being sold in Shopee.

You can decompile, change and recompile as per the instruction in the github if you are afraid of trojan.
This way you take the real APK and do the modification yourself.

any workaround for apple carplay? All I see is post about android auto, so I believe there is no support for ACP yet?
*
We need the damn gkui19 to accept side load APK.
If anyone works in ACOtech can help then good 😂
Another way is change the firmware to Geely ones that can side load apk but doing that should void warranty and will have some Chinese words.

Android can emulate CarPlay by buying a dongle but need to side load apk which gkui19 doesn’t allow.

So far the cleanest solution would to ignore the built in display and use a separate tablet.
https://www.reddit.com/r/CarPlay/comments/g...waited_success/

If you want to use via qdlink, you need an android device with 2 ports. USB hub doesn’t work.
https://github.com/cbtham/carplayx50

All in all, I gave up and just use my phone separately. Or if you have android, the android auto should work flawlessly with the modified qdlink.

Modded QDLink apk file, should allow you to run Android Auto I think, but wired(?)
I don't really see a guide from anyone here, once I get my FS I'll see if I can put together a guide, Android Auto is a big "Plus" for me if I can get it to work somehow
*
Install modded QDLink, android auto on the same phone.
Run QDLink, and use it to open the Android Auto app.

It’s basically your phone is running the Android Auto. It’s just mirroring to your car screen. How I wish GKUI19 can side load…

You will need QDLink to work before using modded QDLink.
Modded one only disable the app blacklist that stops certain apps from working when car is moving.

Just to be sure why don’t you connect to non Pixel 4? Use same cable and technique that you have been using.

Can anybody here confirms this? hmm.gif

Lol sorry didn't reply earlier.
Someone posted the modded QDLink before already.

Without modded QDLink only limited "whitelisted" apps can run while car is moving.

SHIT! It's really apk sideload. Someone really have the method to do so.
I think I will jump the gun.

I think that's still screen mirroring, not Android Auto. He can't turn off the screen one

It is real Android Auto. He can turn off the screen.
He have installed headunit reloaded apk which emulates Android Auto server.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9HAw4iRKEo

EDIT: Haih. It's the same guy Corn Android Upgrades / cornbaby93 / Cornelius Toh.
I have no qualms with him but I didn't like he spread that the modified qdlink is with virus when it's obviously just a one line change of code.
Just cos he wants more business for his shopee qdlink modified apk.

Ya it looks laggy. Might be headunit reloaded take a lot processing in background. Or the link between phone and HU not good. It’s basically mirroring the info from your phone anyway. So might have delay?

QUOTE(idkihavenoidealol @ May 31 2022, 11:06 AM)
Yup, he had contributed quite a lot to Proton X50 tech related stuff, but I just dislike his way of doing business too. The way he promote his business annoys me as well. Kept on saying he bought the service, promoting owner is good, and not admitting he is the owner pulak. Just my personal feelings yeah guys

Ya agreed. So thinking twice before jumping in at RM350.
If I found a method to sideload apk I will share with LYN for free ok? smile.gif

Hi x50 users, would it possble to add an external headunit that has Android Auto above the headunit like this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdXO3O1owb0

Power via the 12V socket, and to listen to music, it uses the FM transmitter (in video set to 87.5Mhz). Anyone have experience with this and can maybe share how the sound quality is like using the FM Transmitter. Tq
*
I used this kind of FM transmitter as below before. Better than radio because the transmitter is close by, but the quality degrades over time. Think it’s between radio and Bluetooth quality. For comparison, best would be USB / streaming quality.

If you going to pay money for the makeshift 3rd party why not spend RM350 to allow android auto / CarPlay?

RM350 for what seems like a “hack” that allows the unit to install Google Play Store sounds like a total scam to me. In their FB, they even stated that they got the “hack” from the Phillipines Geely Coolray community. I may sound like a hater idk.

Ps: the “hack” mentioned above is just a serial code enabling developer options in the X50 unit, thus allowing us to install third party app via APK sideloading. It’s been discussed in reddit countless time. We get the serial code, we get Android Auto (the seller 100% uses Headunit Reloaded to run Android Auto and AutoKit app to run Apple CarPlay (Carlinkit Dongle needed). Mind you, Headunit Reloaded is a paid app so this seller might get into trouble if caught.
*
Lol.. Ya I may sound like a hater too. Bitter don't wanna pay RM350.
Yeah the main point is to enable apk sideloading. I just want to install autokit.apk to enable Apple Carplay. And maybe Waze : (

I will try see what can be done from my side. If by 3 months if I can't get anything maybe I'll give in and just pay the RM350. Lol.

You mean the one mentioned in this thread?
Source: https://www.reddit.com/r/androidroot/commen..._gkui_headunit/

Nevertheless, I can only check our available (free smile.gif ) options after i got my car.
Or, if someone willing to become guinea pig lend me one to check + he/she also based in Melaka, I can help to take a look.
*
Available there is the method through enabling engineering mode.
Geely password is jh3280 but don't know what's the password for our X50.
But I think there's other methods to sideload apk without engineering mode.

No new ATLAS / GKUI gonna beat Android Auto / Carplay.

Hmm.. Maximum USB size.. Currently mention 64gb in manual right?
Did you try with a 128gb USB before?

Once you can sideload your own APK you can try.

Quick feedback here.

Tested and it is working.
Thanks very much 🙏.
I will upload more details later.

Just followed the instructions given.
Copy everything needed in the usb drive that prepared and plug into X50 USB port.

A screen will popup asking if the USB is music or video media, just be patience there and wait for it to reboot.

Edited:
Took around 15mins to install my apks showing in the pictures before it start to reboot.
Best is that you opening the app manager (the left icon next proton icon at the bottom centre of the screen) to observe the installation progress.

To install in batch, what I did is copy all the apk files into data folder that created and do the necessary permissions.

<Below only for those who understand the script syntax. >
Then use "pm install -rtdg --user 0 (replaced with your folder location)/Netflix.apk".
*
Your apk list seems similar like the one shared by others.
If you are using other apk be sure to doublecheck via VirusTotal.com
The ES have 1 malware, Autokit have 9 malware. (Maybe is false positive but just beware)

Yeah.. I did that too from PureAPK. Should be fine.
Always check if it has malware.

I tested your musicolet it was not installing in my X50 as well. Try to use a lower version and see.

Try to install as min as possible. I keep mine to only Carplay and Spotify. Install too much will cause the startup to be laggy.
I don't even install Waze.

https://shopee.com.my/Carlinkit-Wireless-Ca...76-e55d99ab1b41

I bought this one. Wired. The box firmware can update so considered original? Because imitation can't upgrade. Will brick the device.
You can opt for the wireless one. But I feel wired is better and cheaper.

1. You still need to plug in to charge unless using wireless charger.
2. Wired more stable connection?

just minor problem, android 5 on HU seen cant read music library from removeable storage.

tried few music player also same lol
*
Hmm.. Then change to another direction?
Musicolet from phone > Android auto (Headunit Reloaded) > Then run based on the songs from your phone?
USB connection sound is already quite good for X50 compared to bluetooth. Should be on par with native streaming.

It's quite weird because the USB is already mounted. Why the music players can't read the USB device.. Those like ES is able to read.

I think I will only stick to Android Auto / Carplay and not using the native HU to run any apps.
Keep that as cool as possible, minimum CPU usage. Last as long as I'm able to have this car service me.
