I can't reproduce on my Agptek, sorry.

 Maybe view known devices list?

Although I'm not sure of the practicality, being able to change/accept the BT pin would be useful. I've noticed that there are some incompatibilities with the HiBy BT feature due to its extremely limited pin functionality (i.e., it can only be 0000).

And although not UI related, I've noticed that when connected to some of my everyday BT systems, it will do one of three things:


* Audio plays fine but no track data (title, album, artist) is displayed on screen
* Audio plays but in a distorted pitch
* Player fails to connect to BT device altogether
The software isn't terribly old on my devices. It functions as per the first item on my list on my 2013 Camry and functions as per the second item on both a 2018 Mercedes B180 and 2016 Chromebook netbooks. I'm puzzled as to why there would be these incompatibilities.  ???

Turn on bright light and look at the bottom of the screen at an acute angle

Bilgus:
I assume this player is a backlit color lcd screen, the screen being on really doesn't draw much power and the dev effort would be better spent elsewhere

I'll echo NotableFrizi's request for supporting non-zero PINs.  Not sure if that's fixable without bypassing the hiby "system server" bluetooth glue and doing it using native linux commands.

The first cut might be to mirror the agptek firmware UI.  It's kind of clunky but does mostly work.  Mostly.

FWIW, I've managed to completely crash the Rocker 1.2 firmware this morning trying to get it to play nicely with my car's headunit (aftermarket JVC).  And even when it was working the audio would randomly break up badly.   The head unit could control next/prev track, but nothing else worked -- no track information or any meaningful status.  I don't know if there's a way to hook into that.

At $dayjob I have access to a high-end bluetooth sniffer/analyzer.  I'll see if I can find out what's actually going on.
