What's new in 2.0.0

Added

• Signature-based dex discovery for current obfuscated Maps builds (rek overlays, header taps, car IME, restriction gates)
• qjg / qjh / qjb UiState restriction bypass (MapsVoiceOnlyPathHooks, MapsCarUiStatePatches)
• CAR_CANT_USE_KEYBOARD_WHILE_DRIVING tracing for keyboard-denial diagnosis
• kcw.k(10) surgical intercept with PREPARE_MAPS_NATIVE_IME / OPEN_MAPS_NATIVE_IME broadcasts

Changed

• Release builds compile with MODULE_DEBUG=false — zero AAKeyboardUnlock log output
• Driving sensor spoof sets full parked byte (0x00)
• Native rek keyboard path; no custom overlay keyboard

Fixed

• Maps stuck on "Voice only while driving" when dex scanner missed bare obfuscated class names
• Keyboard denial path ("Can't use keyboard while driving") via mic/keyboard restriction hooks
• Gearhead :projection crash on keyboard open (xcu.c NPE)

Requirements

• Rooted device (Magisk / KernelSU) with LSPosed
• Android Auto + Google Maps installed
• Tested with Android Auto 17.1.662404-release

Safety

Disabling driving-distraction protections may be illegal in your jurisdiction. Use only when safe and legal. Module defaults to disabled.
