I think it is pretty funny. I don't know if its an Engrish translation problem, or if the literally mean to ground either Key1 or Key2 wires while programming each button. What was the context of the conversation / question that you asked? Because they might mean that connecting either wire to ground will force the app to remember the last sensed value as the function which you programmed. But, it doesn't seem they had specified which wire is meant to get the value; Can TX, Can RX, Key1 or Key2. It is possible this was assumed during the context of the communication?

Alternatively, It could mean that grounding either wires will switch the mode setting for the SWC. I've seen SWC adapters that will switch resistance / voltage modes by grounding the second SWC probe. If this is the case then I would suspect they mean for you to either connect either the Key 1 or Key 2 wire to the B31 while connecting the other directly to ground.

If it was me, I'd press them to elaborate about how you should connect the AN 21-U's SWC adapter to your car. You have two possible points of for the SWC signal; a single CAN Bus OR voltage wire. It seems to me that the response they are giving you is to help program the SWC controller with a particularly difficult to learn situation. Where as, we know at the steering wheel column is voltage and behind the radio is (probably) Can Bus. What isn't obvious, is how is either supposed to be connected to the AN 21-U's built-in SWC adapter.

What exactly are the options on the Universal unit listed when you navigate to Extra settings > Model choose option?
[Android Head-Units] omarko:
this is the next screen after click Model Choose:

also, I had a question about the speed of the inbuilt fan. These are the options I see in the menu :

I find the fan too loud even when the car is running believe it or not. However, when I select low or middle speed, I can hear the fan stop completely and nothing happens. Does that mean this feature is not working right and its either open (on full blast) or close ( stopped) ?
[Android Head-Units] sorin129:
Ok i did get it to program the buttons however they do not respond the way it should. The volume goes up by itself. I have just the Key 1 to wire B31. I did not grounded the Key 2 wire. and its registering some buttons but not all the time and when it does the buttons press by themselves without me pressing them. I made a video. Do you think if I ground the Key 2 wire will make a difference? Or do you think if I cut that B31 wire will make a difference?(that wire does not need to go to the bus anymore right? It can go straight to Key 1) I feel like I'm close but it still does not work. What do you think would make the volume and the other buttons to press by themselves?

Here is the video:

[Android Head-Units] donaldta:
Thanks, I appreciate it.

I'm guessing by the wording "Fan Start Temperature" that the fan will turn on when the temperature (of the CPU or some other sensor) hits a certain threshold. However, I don't know how they determine in degrees what "open, low, medium, high, and close" mean. I suspect the top and bottom of those choices are never running or always running. This leaves the three in the middle, which I suspect are assigned some arbitrary threshold that they've set. I do not think you can actually control the RPM as you do with fans attached to your computer.

Choose the first option and install it. This model power radio firmware 2.6.60-2 and model below was "sleep" in the firmware 2.6.62 it was replaced by "color" mode you may have "sleep" and stayed. In any case, it does not harm the device.
[Android Head-Units] omarko:
sorry I am bit slow today. Can you please explain more as I am confused? Sleep? Color ?

What does the color stand for ? Is it the ability to change LED backlit buttons that I currently DO have ?

Also will installing one of these complete reset everything including my apps?
[Android Head-Units] avgaz:
Sorry but I do not know much English and was hard for me to explain to you.

Mode "sleep" when it is turned off and only the screen and music fan, and the device works, such a regime was in firmware 2.6.60-2 and below.

Not that not all applications will be deleted as it is.
[Android Head-Units] omarko:
the model Color is 2nd option but you are saying chose first option. Thats what confuses me. Am I installing the color option ?

I am using latest firmware 2.6.62 , does that matter?

what do other users think? anyone heard about these options ? color and sleep ? And will this definitely not erase all my apps and settings?
[Android Head-Units] avgaz:
I suspect that when buying radio you had enabled "sleep" and when you update the firmware you have it and stays on.

If you select the first option that you have disabled "color" and you will be able to check you completely shut off cassette. In any case, you can re-enable discoloration diodes then selecting the second option mode.
[Android Head-Units] omarko:
ok, so I did it. I selected the first options that says :

VW (4.1.0, RDS, Rohm37534, TEF66XX)

and I still have same problem, the unit does not complete shut down. Here I took a video :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBQX0d1XVeU&feature=youtu.be

After the update, do I need to go to any settings and turn the sleep mode OFF?
[Android Head-Units] sorin129:
I saw your video and it does look like your unit goes to sleep instead of shutting down. Mine when i shut it off it takes about 5 sec in till everything shuts down. The screen shuts down instantly but the buttons leds and the fan inside takes about 5 seconds to shut down. Your looks like it goes straight to sleep. It has to be an option to change it unless is a defective unit

[MENTION=6911803]amg_ltd[/MENTION] can you take some screen shot of 2.9.5, home screen, radio app, video app, MP3 app, and post for me please. I will like to see how 2.9.5 looks.

I don't know the answers to your question but maybe some else here has the same head unit as you and can answer your question. I will suggest before you do any upgrade to take pictures of your setting so you can reply on them if you have any future problems.

Although this forum is people helping people. Unless ur a risk taker if your head unit is working fine then leave it be, because ones you hit that sys ungrade most fingers are crossed until their head until reboot back to the home screen. Lol if your a risk taker then happy experimenting and welcome to the playground.

There seem to be multiple 2.9.5 versions on the 4pda.ru site - I downloaded and installed this one. Mine is only 800x480.

[MENTION=223660]Miwer[/MENTION] thanks for the screen shots, I think I like the redmod better, there is a few extra options that are not in your settings so I think I will keep redmod 1.6 install. since mines is rooted I can got change out the apk's instead of reinstall any other version. I have 2 problem thought 1/ get a popup in a differ language and I don't see where you go to make sure my unit is set to USA EN 2/ when I 1st start up i get a message on th screen to "choose something to run" I am guessing because in the settings have auto-start and a few stuff is set to start. on the other hand redmod 1.6 is stable so far at my end, don't know about others.

Hello my friends, I commented that already achieved solve almost all the problems of my radio, but the bluetooth still unresolved. .. Also I have the next problem (the knob only low volume, does not up)... I tried knob settings, i change the radio settings ... and will not let me change anything ... it's like bears no knob setting (same symptom bluetooth so maybe Once they are related problems) ... could someone please explain to me where files are put to update the MCU? Now in options do not appear anything choose ... any help is always welcome ... the MCU which I recommend you try?

- Cortex-A9 Dual Core

- DDR3 1G.

- Android 4.2.2

- MCU 4.2.5-7-10-2501

- System 2.8.8

- DVD 2.13.12.2-860m

-----------------------

Hola mis amigos, les comento que ya logre solucionar casi todos los inconvenientes de mi radio, pero el bluetooth aún sin solución. .. También tengo el tema del volumen (la perilla del knob sólo baja el volumen pero no lo sube).. Probé las configuraciones, cambie valores... y la radio no me deja modificar nada... es como que no guarda ninguna configuración del volumen (mismo síntoma que el bluetooth por lo que tal vez estén relacionados los problemas)... por favor alguien me podría explicar donde se ponen los archivos para actualizar la MCU? ahora en las opciones no me aparecen nada que escojer... cualquier ayuda siempre es bien recibida... de las MCU cual me recomiendan que pruebe?
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
I had the same problem over a year ago when I change my MCU, my volume was not working and I had no Bluetooth....Go to page 574 and you will see some response to how other and I got our system to work again.

on page 574 [MENTION=509153]cool_head[/MENTION] said "Hey guys, go to "extra settings" and in "config info", see if BC6 is checked or unchecked. If it's checked, uncheck. If is uncheck, check. Reboot and see if BT works".

if the above does not fix your problem install version 2.7.29 (2.7.29 fix all problem) then do a full system clean.... am sure the info on page #574 will fix your problem.

Stay thirsty my friend lol
[Android Head-Units] Macje:
thank you my friend :D , your help is always very useful, I will try everything you mention me ... now ... as I do a complete cleaning system?

i mean... COMPLETE COMPLEEEEEETE cleaning system :fingers-crossed: , to leave everything neat and functional

a hug
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
Try this first "go to "extra settings" and in "config info", see if BC6 is checked or unchecked. If it's checked, uncheck. If is uncheck, check. Reboot and see if BT works".
[Android Head-Units] bettuccio:
Hi, I apologize for insisting: I need the application "temperature monitor" the one that talks about the Russian site to display degrees in the status bar. Some of you may send it?
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
Hi I have never seen it, but it sounds like its something I may want to have also........ ... are you talking about temperature monitor for the radio until, temperature monitor for the car or weekly temperature in your area??
[Android Head-Units] bettuccio:
I'm talking about the outdoor temperature environment. without turning the control knob climate you can see the degrees on the status bar.

[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
There lots of outdoor temperature app widgets in the play store, I have one on my home screen to show the time, date and daily temp.. or maybe I am not getting it .. Sorry
[Android Head-Units] Macje:
My friend, probe each step you're saying ... unfortunately on my radio I have nowhere menus the option "bc6" or the menu "config info" in "extra settings" :confused:

Try performing further downgrade but apparently did not work ... I said that was updated but remains in the latest firmware published ...

the good thing is I run the bluetooth but only until the next reboot, then stopped working again ... :(

- Additional data, thanks to the help they gave me, I found out what the additional cameras to the radio ... and gave me a great idea to adapt a mirror keypad to connect the board to 4 cameras... (and I have 5, 4 external 1 internal), is a good project for the weekend ... and had not installed.

I would like to be able to upgrade the hardware bloetooth, recommend me where to buy the compatible hardware?
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
if your running 2.8.8 there should have a setting in the config.info to turn on "bc6" if your unit is not BC6 ready by enabling this your Bluetooth with stop work. try to unpaired you Bluetooth from ur phone and restart or change you default name for the Bluetooth and password then restart the unit. last did your problem with the volume did fix?

its strange if you can't downgrade because when I first got my unit I mess it up so many time and each time I reinstall 2.7.29 and it fix any problem I ran into.

(stay Thirsty my friend)
[Android Head-Units] Macje:
that's the problem, in the Bluetooth configuration, can not save any settings, everything goes blank when you exit the app, exept the first use after upgrade.

extra setings, I see nothing that tells me "config info" or let me change that name or something like that ...

any idea what I can do?

to give downgrade my radio, the files are read, it makes the installation and ends without problem, but the phone information says that even vercion is the most current, lol :rolleyes:

a hug

________________________

ese es el problema, in the bluetooth configuration, no puedo guardar ninguna configuracion, todo queda en blanco al salir de la app, exepto el primer uso despues de actualizar.

en extra setings, no veo nada que me diga "config info" o me permita modificar algo con ese nombre o similar...

alguna idea de que puedo hacer?

al hacerle el downgrade a mi radio, se leen los archivos, hace la instalacion y la termina sin problema, pero en la informacion del telefono dice que aun la vercion es la mas actual, lol

Hi everybody,

can someone verify, who has RedMod 1.5 or 1.6b installed, please:

Radio app, Station pickers (the defined Station buttons) do not show highlighted when selected. Only the first one stays "picked"

I also changed the radio app, same result. Any ideas?

thanks in advance

Oliver
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
is this what you need and do you have a link to the redmod software. I have 1.6 is there a 1.6b?
[Android Head-Units] Cebulon48:
[MENTION=5906490]roystervi[/MENTION] thanks for your answer. I already got RedMod installed.

So far no problems, except Station presets. If I select a different preset as the first one, the other presets work, means the station is tuned, but they "optically" don't show selected.

[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
[MENTION=5825907]Cebulon48[/MENTION] I did not try to set a preset station, when I did the update it have all of my previous radio and system settings. I had 2.8.8 installed and it was rooted so I think that is why when I upgraded to redmod it because rooted too. I wonder if redmod is pre-rooted or it just install on top of that you had before.

also when I start my unit I get this message all the time. if there is a redmod 1.6b can you send me a link where to get it because it might be a fix to my problem.
[Android Head-Units] Cebulon48:
[MENTION=5906490]roystervi[/MENTION] I got this message too, reason I found out (actually the message says it ;) ) go ahead and check if all your hardware buttons (radio/nav/dvd) are defined with a corresponding app. You can find it somewhere in extra settings /user settings. Sorry can't tell exactly,

Radio Presets: do you see a color change, when you switch through the presets, indicating the preset you tabbed/selected

Link to 1.6b

[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
[MENTION=5825907]Cebulon48[/MENTION] thanks that did help to assign the presets. To answer your question: yes when I press on a diff preset station it turns red while I am pressing to show it is selected. also if I hold a preset for 3sec it will bring up an option for me to rename the preset to what ever I want, also I can drag and drop the name of the station to the preset number..see pictures
[Android Head-Units] Cebulon48:
and THIS is not working with my radio app (default RedMod radio ) and i am looking for a fix :p ;)

I updated the MCU and lost all sounds,contacted the supplier and i was shocked when they told me how to update MCU:

Settings - general Settings - extension set - 123456 - OK - model choice - VW 662 * (...) or VW (.. 665 *) - OK"

The MCU version was updated from 4.3.10 to 4.3.13 I don't now if this helps or is related (p.s. my car is NOT VW)
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
Yeah you will need to start playing with some more MCU. see if you can go through cool_heard post, I don't know if he's still around, he use to post lots of files so some of his folders maybe still around.. Take a pic of your unit and ask anyone here if they have the same until as you and ask them what is there MCU number.

if all fails and your not getting answers, as last resort go to the 1st page and you will find old MCU... but first please find out what was your head unit MCU originally came with.

I got this from the 1st page but remember to only use as a last resort http://androidstereo.mobile.eu.org/

hola mi amigo, efectivamente en esa dirección de carpeta cuando te da a escoger la MCU, todo me sale en blanco, sin nada que poder escoger.

-not get, I'll try it today and see how it works, is the previous links fiew post before right? :fingers-crossed:

-on the MCU as I can put more MCU to choose ?, I see folders with MCU and other firmware, MCUs files are installed by just put on the sd card and giving it to upgrade MCU? or how? :confused:

I have purchased quite a few launcher Apps and didn't think much of any of them.

I found a great launcher and believe it or not, it's free.

The volume buttons didn't work with my AN-21 U unit, so I asked the developer if he could hide or delete them.

Here is the app

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.flaki.frontend1

I am not sure if the developer has updated the app to enable the volume buttons to be hidden.

If not, contact him and he will send you the updated app.

[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
Hi if your MCU is - "4.2.5-7-10-2501" then I will only choose a MCU with the same last numbers. I mess up my until mcu so much, I learn to only choose a new MCU that are close to what I had. example my old MCU was 4.2.4-10-10-2501 so I upgraded mines to 4.2.13-10-10-2501.zip again as you see I only replace the 3rd number. if I did not want to go through all of them one by one. I don't mind testing because the usnits are so cheap. My last radio was over $1500 and did not do all what this unit does , so one and change is a lesson learn.

maybe someone here can look at the list of MCU and advise you which one from the list will work for you. if not you can test one that are the closes to your MCU. again you must know what MCU you had before you upgraded your MCU, because I am guessing the MCU your showing right now is not your original MCU.

My friend Thanks for the help ... I tried Many settings... after installing all achieved "Red Mod 1.6b" and leave almost everything to achieve functional ... even the knob. have bluetooth, video recording, front camera, reverse camera, digital tv, radio, even now recognizes the ODBII of my car, and could connect to torque pro program for the first time.... I'm happy :laugh: ... unfortunately only have a problem, I can not install Waze, I get an error and does not start ... and I will see how I can fix it because it is very useful to me. .. If they know of anyone like me know ... and the button on the knob that can now select their duties is ... if only raise or lower the volume alone does not make the two things, must be manufacturing defect looooool.

for now I dedicate myself to give upgraded as mirrors retovisores cameras, connected to the control panel of the alarm, and some fun things.

-----------

mi amigo Muchas gracias por la ayuda... Probé Muchas configuraciones... luego de todo logre instalar "Red Mod 1.6b" y logre dejar casi todo funcional... incluso el knob. tengo bluetooth, video, cámara frontal, cámara retroceso, tv, radio, incluso ahora reconoce el ODBII y pude conectarlo al programa torque pro por primera vez.... estoy feliz... lamentablemente sólo tengo un problema, no puedo instalar WAZE, me sale un error y no lo inicia... ya veré como poder solucionarlo porque me es muy útil. .. si saben de alguno similar me avisan... y el botón del knob que ahora puedo seleccionar sus funciones es... aunque sólo subir o solo bajar el volumen, no hace las dos cosas jajaja debe ser defecto de fabrica jajajaja.

por ahora me dedicaré a hacerle upgraded como las cámaras de espejos retovisores, conectarlo a la central de alarma y algunas cosas entretenidas.

MCU latest version and Parking sensors issue

is there a later version for MCU than: 4.3.12 ?

mine is 4.3.12-11-902-454101

the problem i am facing is that the can bus decoder is the one who beeps for the parking sensors, the beep should come from the speakers and not the decoder itself.

Any ideas? [MENTION=4736782]kaween[/MENTION]

I run my front camera / dash camera on the Video IN input connector which requires that the "AUX" app is running in order to see the camera picture. This works fine except of one little disadvantage: The music playback from the Music Player or DVD Player stops once "AUX" is running. I would like to listen to tracks from the Music Player while the front camera picture is displayed. Did anyone find a solution for this architecture? Please please please let me know, I'd highly appreciate your support here.
[Android Head-Units] roystervi:
I post a video a few months ago. You can put a Y splitter on the rear camera input. I have 4 cameras on my unit. One front, one rear and one on each side mirror. On the brown wire you will have to connect all in coming power there. Then you have to use diodes to stop the power turning on another camera while one is on.
