Setup Guide

Install OverDrive on Your Car

A two-part walkthrough — enable ADB on the head unit, then sideload the APK from your phone. No PC required.

Part 1

Enable ADB on Your Car

Dialer method — works without a USB cable.

  1. 1
    Pair Bluetooth

    Connect your phone to the car via Bluetooth. The dialer code only fires when a paired phone is present.

  2. 2
    Open the engineering menu

    In the car's Phone app, dial:

    *#91532547#* Include the trailing *
  3. 3
    Generate & enter the unlock code

    The car shows your IMEI and a Chinese prompt. Copy the IMEI, then on your phone visit:

    ahmada3mar.github.io/BYD

    Paste the IMEI to generate a code. Enter that code into the car's text field, then tap 进入 (Enter).

  4. 4
    Turn on Debug switches

    From the engineering menu open TestTools, scroll down, and enable both:

    • Debug mode when USB connected
    • Wireless adb debug switch
  5. 5
    Find the car's IP address

    Connect the car to your phone's hotspot. Then on the head unit go to Settings → WLAN, tap your hotspot connection, press the info icon, and write down the IP.

    You'll need this IP in Part 2 — keep it handy.
Part 2

Sideload the OverDrive APK

Push the APK from your phone using Termux + adb.

  1. 1
    Update Termux packages

    Open Termux on your phone and run:

    pkg update && pkg upgrade -y
  2. 2
    Install the Android tools
    pkg install android-tools -y

    Grant storage permission when prompted — Termux needs it to reach your downloads folder.

  3. 3
    Connect to the car over ADB

    Replace <car_ip> with the address you wrote down in Part 1:

    adb connect <car_ip>:5555
  4. 4
    Locate the APK

    Move into the folder where you saved the APK on your phone:

    cd ~/storage/downloads/your_apk_folder
  5. 5
    Install OverDrive
    adb install overdrive.apk

    Replace overdrive.apk with the exact filename you downloaded. Once Termux prints Success, the app appears in the car's launcher.

    Done — open OverDrive on the head unit and complete first-launch setup.

Everything Your BYD Needs

Built specifically for BYD vehicles with deep system integration

Optimized Recording Pipeline

State-of-the-art architecture designed for efficiency. Our optimized pipeline keeps CPU usage minimal while delivering smooth, high-quality recordings.

<28% CPU Usage
~150MB Memory
<3s Boot Time
Market First

Proximity Recording

Uses BYD's 8 parking radar sensors to detect approaching objects. Records pre/post event clips only when something gets close — saving storage and resources.

  • Configurable trigger levels (Yellow/Red)
  • Pre-event buffer (captures before trigger)
  • Post-event duration (configurable)
  • 500ms debouncing to prevent false triggers

Real-time Performance Monitor

Dedicated dashboard showing CPU, GPU, memory usage, and battery voltage. Know exactly what resources your system is using.

17 Languages

Speaks Your Language

Full UI translation across 17 languages with automatic system-locale detection. SRT subtitle sidecars on every recording, localized to your active language.

  • Auto-detects from system locale on first launch
  • Native-script picker — no flags, no compromises
  • Localized SRT sidecars next to every .mp4
  • Server messages, errors, and overlays — all translated

Advanced Sentry Mode

24/7 surveillance with motion detection and AI object recognition. Keeps your vehicle protected while parked.

ISP Blocklist Bypass

Browse internet via BYD's built-in SIM card, bypassing ISP restrictions. No dedicated WiFi hotspot needed. Optional paid feature as server costs grow.

ADB Shell Runner

Built-in terminal for developers. Run shell commands, check process status, view logs, and debug directly from the app.

Programmable

Your Car, Your Rules

A full automation engine and hardware button remapping — running entirely on the head unit

Automations That Can Think

Not just "when this, do that". A real execution engine with branching, loops, variables and reusable subroutines — authored from a visual editor, evaluated on-device with no cloud round-trip.

  • If / Else branches — inline, with an Otherwise path
  • Loops & variables — numeric state that persists across runs
  • Nested AND / OR condition groups, arbitrarily deep
  • Compare live signals — cabin vs outside temp, speed vs a variable
  • Pause & Wait-Until — "wait until stopped, then close windows"
  • Action groups — name a routine once, call it from anywhere
  • Rules that control rules — enable, disable or toggle another automation
13 Categories

0 Cloud Calls
Hardware

Key Mapping

Rebind the steering-wheel and dashboard buttons your car already has. Capture a keycode live, or type it in — then bind single, double or long press independently.

  • One button, a whole routine — chained in order
  • Tunable double-tap window (450 ms default)
  • Optionally suppress the button's stock single-click
  • Launch any installed app, or run a shell script
  • Same action catalog as automations — one setting, three surfaces

Reacts To Almost Anything

Triggers and conditions read live vehicle state directly off the BYD bus — gear, seatbelts, doors, windows, pedals, steering angle, indicators, hazards, beams, incline, parking radar, tyre pressure, battery, charge gun, drive & EV mode, Bluetooth by device name, incoming calls, sunrise/sunset, time and day — plus what the parked camera sees.

Full ADAS & Comfort Control

Blind-spot, traffic-sign, cross-traffic alert & brake, lane-keeping, forward-collision, speed-limit warning, hazards. Climate, windows, sunroof, seats, ambient light, drive & energy modes, brightness and media. Emergency Braking is re-arm-only — never switchable off.

Integrations

Home Assistant, Both Ways

Native MQTT discovery — your car appears as a device, with no YAML to write

Auto-Discovered Telemetry

Switch on discovery and a full OverDrive device materialises in Home Assistant seconds later — every sensor already populated, correctly typed with device classes, units and icons.

  • 127 telemetry fields — battery, range, speed, tyres, temps, doors, charge state
  • Device tracker — live position on your HA map
  • Up to 5 brokers simultaneously, each independently configured
  • TLS & self-signed certs — Mosquitto, EMQX, HiveMQ
  • Change-gated publishing — only what actually moved
  • Availability + LWT — HA knows the instant the car drops off
127 Fields
5 Brokers
0 YAML Lines
Local Control

Commands Back To The Car

Opt in to vehicle control and the entities become writable — climate, windows, tailgate, sunroof, seat heating & ventilation, charge limit, DRL, child lock. Commands hit the car's own SDK on the head unit; they never traverse the BYD cloud.

  • Off by default — an explicit, deliberate opt-in
  • Optimistic UI, reconciled by the next telemetry tick
  • Drive it from dashboards, automations or a voice assistant
  • Publish MQTT from a rule, or trigger a rule from an incoming message

No Port Forwarding

Broker on a different network? Route it over the built-in Tailscale proxy — reach your MQTT server across your tailnet without exposing a single port to the internet.

RoadSense

Learns The Road Ahead

On-device IMU classification of potholes and speed breakers — warns you before you reach them

Real Signal Processing, Not Guesswork

A calibrated inertial pipeline runs on the head unit's own motion sensors. Gravity-frame alignment establishes the vehicle's true orientation, then a classifier separates a pothole (pitch down, then up) from a speed breaker (rise, crest, fall) using rise time, severity and lateral asymmetry — a one-wheel hit is the pothole-defining cue.

  • Vehicle self-calibration — learns your car's mounting geometry
  • Rejection filter — discards braking, cornering and door slams
  • Severity grading — a gentle ripple is not a crater
  • GPS ring buffer — the hazard is pinned where it actually happened
  • Adjustable sensitivity — tune it to your roads
Ahead Of You

Warned Before The Bump

A floating card shows what's coming and how far out, with an audible chime, an on-screen alert, or both. Hazards also plot along your navigation route — so you see them before you're on them.

  • Distance-aware countdown, not a late buzz
  • Warnings on the main screen or the driver cluster
  • Confirm or remove any hazard after your trip

Local First, Shared By Choice

Every hazard you record stays on your device by default. Opt in and you contribute to a shared map — and benefit from what other drivers have already found on roads you haven't driven yet.

History

Every Trip, Every Charge

A complete driving and charging record, computed and stored entirely on the car

Trip History & Driving DNA

Trips are detected automatically — no start/stop button. Each one gets a route map, energy use and a scored breakdown of how you drove, using the car's own odometer with GPS only as fallback.

  • Driving DNA — smoothness, efficiency and consistency scored per trip
  • Terrain-aware — thresholds adapt to flat, hilly, climb or descent
  • Consumption — kWh/100 km, with %/100 km fallback for PHEVs
  • Micro-moments — the specific events behind each score
  • Weekly & monthly rollups — trends, not just a list
  • Range estimator — personalised to your actual driving over time
  • Backup & restore — survives a wiped head unit
Battery Health

Charging History & SOH

Every session logged with power curve, energy delivered and duration — plus a live dashboard card showing time to full. Long-run voltage and cell-temperature history feeds a State of Health estimate.

  • Session log with true kW — correct on BEV and PHEV
  • SOH estimation from accumulated voltage history
  • Resettable for recalibration after battery service
  • Charge-limit control and completion alerts

Stored On Your Car

Trips, charging sessions and hazards live in on-device databases — no account, no sync, no third party. Export to a single file whenever you want, and carry it to a fresh install.
