сделайте виджет информации о ТС наполняемым (добавить или удалить требуемые параметры), параметры нельзя передвинуть - из-за этого ничего не показывает.

сделайте чтобы дневная тема была не белая, выбираешь одну черную тему и дневной и ночной, и при включении дневной все меню белые

Cool, thank you so much! I'll test the AF function optimalisations and report back. In the meantime have happy new year and enjoy your holidays! ;-)

Flashed and updated no problem. Will have a proper look around tomorrow but all seems great on my end

Merci, bonne et heureuse année!

Hi,
I am currently using Dudu 3.5 (V241222), can I install Dudu 3.6?

heslo

JAHMOUM Yes

wybitny2

Dudu OS has become more responsive, it keeps applications in RAM better. Or maybe I'm making it up, but that's how I feel. Of course, I always restore factory settings.

Is a factory reset necessary? It's a pain to set things up again.

MihaiFlorin

lockc No, it is not necessary. As long as you don't move the files from Factory Reset folder tot the root of USB (leave the file structure untouched) your settings will be preserved.

wybitny2

lockc I think it's worth doing this because sometimes minor bugs happen and something might not work as it should. Unless you notice minor errors, you do not need to perform a factory reset.

Since day one i didn't do a factory reset with an update. Working nicely until now.
Bought it in March 2024

Is there any way to update to this beta release WITHOUT using USB? I have tried the on device (downloaded the .7z directly from Chrome to downloads directory) but I believe for Beta updates, this does not work. Reason being....the Dudu is in my kids car and it seems the USB (both the external cord and the OEM connection) has stopped working. Maybe a short? Dirt might have got into the USB extension. ugh.

JhonnyD

Tswire I think I've heard that it is possible from the root dir of the head unit. I think you have to extract the .7z

Спасибо за обновление. Скачал на флешку. Поставлю отпишусь. Приятного отдыха.

JhonnyD

thanks, will give it a try today. I have it extracted but in the downloads. Need to fix the USB port anyway but eager to try 3.6

Tried that and didn’t work. Copied both the 7z and the extracted files to highest directory I could (Local) and then tried a local Update pointing to each. Neither worked. Hmm

Edit. Rebooting head unit seemed to work. Found the update file and doing it now. Probably have to delete those files after
