Just to update, after the heavy rain yesterday, I felt water dripping on me while driving my 8 month old Proton X50. After checking, there was water dripping near my rear view mirror.

People did not understand this logic: I don't use it, so it never broke. But actually the opposite result. |

But getting rid of that spamming notification does keep things really neat.See the bell icon at the left or right depends on your setting. Means whatsapp notification came from Android Auto not the HUR.. understand this thankss |

QUOTE(muncheno @ Aug 3 2022, 08:49 PM) Special Announcement Following update from the arrangement here.Muncheno and xeon1989 are planning to organize a Merdeka session (31-Aug) to help X50 owners to downgrade Atlas OS to GKUI19 at 2 different locations (Penang Island and Melaka). So the message here is just a head up for those can't wait to downgrade. Possibility only gathers for around 1.5-2 hrs and I foreseen each car will take around 25 mins for downgrading, installing apps and perhaps assist you to setup Android Auto for your phone (for Android only, unless other volunteer help on IOS). If you are interested to meet up to get me (PENANG) or xeon1989 (Melaka) for support, please let me know. My estimation that we only able to support up to 5 or 6 cars at given time slot, so it is 1st come 1st serve 😁. You may ask if payment needed, the answer is no. We are just doing a free services to help and for sharing plus little bit of gathering. Final venue/location and details will be determine later. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Coming 31-Aug is only available on request. FYI only. From my side muncheno already help to downgraded few of the X50 owners those in Penang and Ipoh area during my weekends. This goes same for xeon1989 in Melaka. Unfortunately, the downgrade will only works X50 FS & premium users only. We still do not have the GKUI19 files needed for Standard/Executive at the moment. So on coming 31-Aug, I still have one more user in my list, I will arrange with him either on 31-Aug or one of the weekend when I'm free. This goes for Xeon1989, you have to PM him directly if you would need his assistance to help, he also can help when he is available. Thanks. |
