flyinhawaiian968 started the topic Is this possible? Push all notifications from main phone to dmd2 phone/tablet in the forum [App] Help Wanted
So, I’m looking for a way to receive popups or some sort of push notification from my main phone, a Galaxy S20 u5g, over to my TM-D665, so when I’m riding and my phone is in my jacket, I can see incoming phone calls and text messages from the S20 pop up on my D665. Perhaps there’s already a way to do this with a simple app? Maybe Android Auto or some sort of Carplay thing? I know this is possible, as it can be done via car stereos using AA or Carplay, would it be possible to have an app that adds this function to the D665?
I really don’t want to have another phone mounted to my handlebar just so I can see who’s calling or texting (and hey, while I’m at it, maybe email notifications too?), and I like having my phone on me at all times in case I go down and cannot get back to the bike in an emergency.
Any suggested apps to try would be appreciated, and if its not possible with aftermarket apps, perhaps this could be a new feature added to the build?
Thanks!
Chris

I would really like to see a non-Google android operating system installed on your units, it would eliminate all bloatware from Android and Google yet still remain usable and have the ability to install Google apps by the user.
At this time, I’ve tested “/e//OS” on a Samsung Galaxy S9+, running DMD2 (with keys for obdii and maps) and it is incredibly responsive, has not crashed or had any other errors, allows everything DMD2 does on a google-based unit, but has none of the laggy, buggy garbage that’s installed and embedded with the standard OS.
Both /e/os and Lineage would be excellent choices as the flagship OS for your units! No b.s., just DMD2, a few standard apps, and just let the customers install what they want!
As an alternative, would you be willing to allow the units you sell to be unlocked and rooted, either as a standard offering or perhaps as an option when purchasing the units?
As a secondary alternative, would your office be willing to at least debloat the units and have everything unnecessary to DMD2 and the android OS be removed prior to shipping? I can’t tell if you already do this, as there’s no screen shots of what’s behind DMD2 when its closed, but having Google Play store preinstalled I assume it has all the regular apps installed.
Thanks!
