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

It could definitely be the solution, but I do love to tinker and experiment...this may be the reason I have had many android car units. If I have some interesting results I will report back

Edit:

I believe I have solved it. I am posting my solution just in case anyone finds themselves having the same problem.
I think the issue is caused by copying a save folder from previous install..I copied the entire iGO_Pal folder from my old unit and moved it including save folder over to the new unit.

This solution has worked for iGO_Pal 9.18 with any skin, I am using Pongo skin kimiyaci mod, works for iGO_Basar 9.18 frontozd skin, and iGO_World 9.35 64 bit with pongo skin

1. Delete save folder from main iGO_Pal folder.
2. Go to android settings > apps > iGO and clear all cache and storage, then force stop
3. Delete iGO app
4. Open sys.txt and make these alterations
[android]
fullscreen=1 ----- DELETE THIS LINE
create_sdcard_dir=0
navigation_audio_stream=3
background_shutdown_timeout=0
check_folders_after_rebuild=0
disable_restart_after_phone_call=1


getdeviceid_trycount=0

[rawdisplay]
screen_xy="auto"
dpi=480 < ------- ADD THIS LINE
base_dpi=240 < ----------ADD THIS LINE
Experiment if needed with different dpi and base dpi values if needed to find what suits

5. Reinstall iGO app and run through setup in fullscreen on your device, Exit navigation and restart igo...If traffic doesn't work on restart, then check in licience folder and look for one file called PEARL...Delete file and restart, traffic should now work.
6. Go to your Picture in picture or windowed mode settings on your device and reassign iGO as PIP program
7. Reboot your device and start PIP or windowed mode, it should now start and fully boot up without issues in windowed mode and work normally.

I have completed 10 x windowed mode start ups on all 3 iGO variations without any "not responding" incidents

Hi, I have the same problem as you, I have an ekiy rs pro with picture by picture, and with igo luna it does it perfectly, but igo pal always starts in full screen when it resets, I have done what you put as a solution and it continues to start in full screen not in the picture and picture window, the igo luna 9.35. 2. 153810 skin I put October 20, 2023 does it perfectly

Mine has never set to full screen, one I had the iGO is not responding pop up I hit close program and it resets in the PIP.

Did you follow every step, did you delete fullscreen=1 from sys.txt?

Yes, I did all the steps you put but when it resets it opens in full screen, I remove it and it goes into the pip window.

Strange as I haven't had an issue since I did all the steps in my method above, are you definitely using Pal from here? [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

And are you using a skin? I have tested Arimi, Wandel, Garrigor and Pongo and all can have the "not responding" in the PIP but not in full screen. Pongo and Arimi seem to cause most instances, as Boki said in post #6 Pongo skin is complicated and in post #2 that split screen or PIP is not iGO's natural environment. The Pal version above comes with default skin which also works fine in PIP for me. I am a huge fan of all 4 skins, with Pongo being my favourite, so I tried a few of the Pongo mods available on the forum and I found this one works great [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Its been well over 2 weeks now and its working great.
I am not familiar with your unit, what are the specs and what android version? plus is the android version geniune? Mine is a Mekede/Navifly Dudu7 UIS7870 2.7ghz 8 core, with 8gb Ram with confirmed genuine Android 13
