Agama Launcher with Eonon??m

I'd first like to thank everyone for the help and advice during my install of my Eonon GA9465B.

I like the head unit but am kinda not liking the interface. I like the Agama Car Launcher and even the Car Launcher Pro, but there seems to be no way to get to use the actual AM/FM radio during these apps for some reason. I read the Agama instruction and it states that the radio needs to report to the Android information center. Has anyone had this issue and solved it? Or can recommend a real FM radio app that would work on the radio and not through internet?

I was looking to add a launcher also and ran into the same info you found.
After some searching I found this but haven't tried it yet:

Still undecided if I am going to try a launcher or purchase this complete new firmware for my eonon:

I may have to try the first option since mine runs on Android 10 and that firmware is 6,8,or 9.

Thanks for the info

Mines Android 9 and has an even uglier interface than the 10 so I will be changing it up once I make up my mind which way to go.

Let us know how it works out!!

I just tried the Activity Launcher to try to create a shortcut to the Radio but the launchers don't allow "pinshortcuts".

I have to find USB to put the .apk file into

Loading the Radio.apk file worked. I now have an app icon for Radio and can set it for use with Agama Car Launcher

Thank you for the links. I hope it works for you also

When I had my eonon, I used Hal9k custom rom (was free back then) and was super happy with it. Much faster response, and nice touches to the interface (including voltage reading in status!).

I also got modified audio firmware files to help improve the audio and the eq they provide.

Just a couple of other tips from my experience.

thanks for the info. I'll have to look into this as the Agama is having quirks in it to getting to certain apps and functions that i am finding annoying. Also, it is very slow to load and respond at times.

but also, Hal9k only shows Android 9 and my unit is 10
