Overview

The Manage App is the main settings hub on your DMD device. It provides access to all hardware configuration and companion apps from a single screen.

Controller Setup
Device Buttons
Holder Actions
Walkie Talkie
The Manage App requires the Accessibility Service to be enabled for button remapping and controller features. If prompted, follow the on-screen instructions to enable it.

Remote Controller Setup

Configure your DMD remote controller or compatible third-party controller. The app auto-detects your controller when you press any button on it.

Connection Mode

Choose between wired (cable) or wireless (Bluetooth) connection. Toggle the "Use Cable Connection" switch to change modes.

Note: Remote 4 is wireless only and does not support cable connection.
Controller Options
Invert 2-Way Switch
Reverses the direction of the toggle switch on compatible controllers.
Invert Left/Right & Up/Down
Available for BMW Sync Box — reverses the zoom control directions.
Reduce Joystick Sensitivity
Lowers the joystick resolution for more precise control. Available on Remote 4.
Firmware Update
When a firmware update is available for your controller (e.g., BMW Sync Box), an update button will appear.
Controller Status

The controller screen shows real-time information: firmware version, connection status (wired/wireless/waiting), and battery level (Remote 4). The controller model and brand logo are automatically displayed after detection.

The app auto-detects your controller model when you press any button. No manual selection is needed.

Troubleshooting

  • Make sure the Accessibility Service is enabled (the app will prompt you if it's not).
  • If using cable, check the physical connection.
  • If using Bluetooth, ensure the controller is paired in Android Bluetooth settings first.
  • Press any button on the controller — the app auto-detects on button press.
  • Try toggling between cable and Bluetooth modes.

  • Verify the Accessibility Service is enabled — this is required for all button remapping.
  • Check that the correct action is assigned to the button in Device Buttons settings.
  • If using a DMD2-specific action, make sure DMD2 is running.
  • Restart the Manage App if settings appear unresponsive.

  • Make sure the device properly detects dock insertion (check if other dock-dependent features work).
  • Verify actions are set to something other than "Do Nothing".
  • The Accessibility Service must be active.

These options are device-specific:
  • LoRa: Available on T865X, T880X, and Norte only (requires built-in or plug-in LoRa module).
  • eSIM: Available on T880X and Norte only.
  • The T665 does not support LoRa or eSIM.

The Accessibility Service is an Android system feature that allows the Manage App to intercept hardware button presses and remap them to custom actions. Without it, the app cannot detect button inputs or control other apps. It is safe to enable — the app only uses it for button remapping and remote controller functionality.
