Thread: Possible bug on DUDU7 car head unit Picture in Picture iGO Nextgen Pal 9.8.27.719974

Hi all
I have been using iGO Pal 9.8.27.719974 since 2021 on various car head units, I originally obtained it from this thread

I assembled the package according to instructions in the assembling a funtional nextgen package thread and it has worked very well since first use. It is definitely my prefered navigation program.
I use latest pongo skin, with real day/night panorama theme, maps updated and all licience files present, as I say it has worked perfectly on an android 11 unit and an android 10 based unit both using picture in picture or windowed mode on the launcher.

I have recently fitted a new unit which is a DUDU7 Android 13 based unit please see here for details on these units

DUDU7
8 core UIS7870 processor 2.7ghz
8gb Ram
Android 13 genuine
Screen resolution 2000 x 1200 (main screen, no idea on windowed mode resolution)

I copied over my igo package to the new unit and initially all was well both as full screen and in windowed mode on the launcher, however 2 days after installing there was a DUDUOS update to 3.6 and then this bug started. In full screen mode it still works fine but in windowed mode on the launcher it boots then says iGO-Pal is not responding, but it is still running or so it seems. I have to tap on close program so it reboots and it can take multiple reboots of the window to settle it down, but if I switch to full screen the problem does not occur. I have a video of it here

Spoiler: Youtube video of the bug

My initial thought is that it is a bug in the picture in picture software in the DUDUOS so I have reported this to the developers and they say it is not a bug in their software. I have tried other navigation apps:
Sygic
Sygic truck
Tomtom NDS
Tomtom Amigo
Magic Earth
Google Maps
Waze
All worked fine apart from iGO, I have also tried other iGO versions and the same thing happens, but on all versions it is intermittent and doesn't happen every time, no version (Bazar, Luna, world) is any better or worse than my prefered Pal.
So my next thing to try was to use the new apk from this thread [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and the bug still happens (it is this apk that is in the youtube video above)
I am now out of ideas so I am asking if any of you experts can see anything I may have missed.

Indeed my first ever android head unit came with it installed it did use pongo skin from 2019-12, thats how I discovered igo, which led me to this forum because I had to do a full factory reset on the unit and lost the original version that came installed. I have on many occasions attempted to find the pongo skin from 2019-12 but can't find any working links, a shame as I feel it would be worth trying an older version

The Eonon Q30pro I had previously did have the windowed mode as do all topway based models, and the iGO Pal build worked perfectly, I used it daily for over 2 years so I know it can and does work, of course that could be due to the old unit being android 10 instead of Android 13 like the new unit. These new DUDU7 units have basicly the same thing under a different name, they call it picture in picture or PIP but as you can see in the youtube video DUDU has dual PIP.
I have done some experimenting by using the mod skin from here [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
It has improved but not eliminated the issue, If I remove the save folder and reinstall using the original apk then it does seem to fix it completely, but doing that stops traffic from working so that just swaps one issue for another
