[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ultradj83:
Dear,

just got one more ES9610A, I will use it for test.

Just before to install your latest firmware, I'm giving its stock firmware a little look.

Well, it comes with a different firmware compared to the one I bought in November.

I'm still testing it, it's still a 4.2.2, apps partition is too small as usual, but it really seems to not to be affected by Wi-Fi and 3G problems, I've been playing hours of video streming without any problem.

I can't see this official firmware in any repository so, how can I backup and share it?

I can also send this to you, if you like.

There's also a MCU version I can't find in any repository, but I think it's impossible to save it.

Thanks a lot!

Huifei KGL St bluetooth connectivity

Wondering if anyone with thus has had similar issues to me and if so, what you've done to remedy it? Had zero success getting my phone to connect to the radio. is the name and password for what you want the radio to broadcast? would this be a problem of the mcu or img?

Thank you ahead of time.

Hey, I found the solution how to boot into recovery by myself.

1. The reset button in my device is under unnamed hole by the GPS TF card slot (you'll have to try left/right and up/down to find it)

2. Another way to boot into the recovery is to cut out the power by pulling out the main connector, press&hold the power button and put the connector back. After a few seconds release the power button, and the device will be in the recovery.

Please consider updating the FAQ.

At least your app is working on these units. Using the default app is not stable as it unmount the USB cam, something I have not seen when using your app so far. Now I only need to autostart recording on boot however I'm not that skilled to do that. Will try start app manager as a friend suggested

hi everyone! I just bought a new eonon g2110 few days ago and i decided to flash a custom rom :D

Before doing anything (stupid) i would like to know what to do in case of bootloop.

With android phone i've always used twrp to restore backup, reflash thr same rom or another one. Is the same for theese android carsystem?

Thank you all!!!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] DailyRoads:
For autostart on boot you need the help of another app, as DailyRoads Voyager doesn't have this option (and permission).
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ultradj83:
I suggest Tasker.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] DailyRoads:
Or one of the other 10 alternatives to Tasker.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] devilsoft:
Hi DailyRoads!

There is no chance to add the BOOT_COMPLETED (

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED" />

permission to manifest ?

I also see that you have a android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETE (without D), so you can rename that to android.intent.action.BOOT_COMPLETED. Some options can be also added to the app, to check what to run on boot completed: Video, Photo, etc),

I also have a question: how can I mute the start video notification sound ? I didn't find where in the app.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Reptile-X:
Sorry Tia, I dont have any information about the pinout, it was packaged in a plastic and a little box there was no manual or wiring diagram.

OMG by the way, I didn’t check the topic for a while I have to read at least 400 pages to catch up if I need new goodies :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] DailyRoads:
Any extra permission reduces the number of potential new users, as people question the reasons behind each permission. So, we decided to leave out this feature when there are other options (e.g. Tasker) to accomplish the same effect. The BOOT_COMPLETE (without D) intent action was part of a Gallery app/codebase we included, but has no place in the manifest file now, and will be removed from the next version.

The start/stop video sounds are generated by Android, not in our code. Unfortunately, there is no easy solution for these, since Android doesn't have any special option for developers to control them. We had to use a workaround, which doesn't work on all phones. You can try setting that sound level to 0 in the Camera settings, but a better option (on a rooted device) is to just replace the sound file.

Troubles

Hey everyone,

So I just got a kd-c0223, it works great so far! I just have a few issues I need some assistance resolving.

The only way I can get internet is over wifi. I cannot get usb or bluetooth internet from my moto x to work. I am using the mobile hotspot on my moto x. Bluetooth will connect for audio and phone, but not internet. There is no option on the stereo's bluetooth menu to turn it on, that I can find.

I cannot get my steering wheel controls to function. I have the SWC Output connected to key 1, nothing

I cannot find the correct antenna adaptor. I have a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt. The kd appears to have a triangular antenna input.

Mounting kit, what is up with this? I cannot find one that has a big enough opening. It's like the head unit is a double din plus. I used my dremel to "Make it fit", but I would like it to look nice.

Well thanks for the input. I look forward to watching this product improve as it is an amazing concept and works great!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
KD ? you mean KLD, a Klyde unit ?

AFAIK there is no BT internet - to use your hotspot, turn it on on your phone and then turn on the WiFi on the unit and it will find it and connect.

You would normally have to connect Key1, Key2 and ground to use SWC, I take it the Cobalt does not have CAN Bus SWC then ?

I ve not heard of a triangular antenna connector before, can you post a pic?

There are 2 sizes of double DIN opening, one slightly larger than than the other (I forget the dimensions of the smaller on but I think the larger is 112mmx188mm), these units use the larger opening, so look for a bezel that size to tidy up your install.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Us-Marshal:
I have this unit installed in my Jeep and after some tweaking (root, roms, MCU update, etc) I am really happy with it. Getting everything working (Bluetooth obdii adapter, mic for Bluetooth calling, etc.) takes some doing, but it's worth the effort imo. Read thru this thread - there's TONs of good info that applies to this unit.

I got mine a bit cheaper than your links - I made a 'best offer' to Pumpkin on eBay and paid $369 shipped. I'm sure others can tell you where to get a better deal, but I liked having eBay/PayPal back the purchase in case of issue.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Android-4-4...259?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27edc86abb

Btw - this is a Klyde unit (sold by Pumpkin, Joying/Joyous, and others) so anytime you see mention of KLD/Klyde, it pertains to this unit.

Cheers
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
I have the same unit. As far as the USB/Bluetooth tethering you may be out of luck. There is an app called "easy tether" and "tablet tether" on the play store that may help BUT there is a disclaimer about KitKat 4.4 having issues working with it. Apparently you have to set up a fake wifi connection to make it work. Keep in mind the problems are with KitKat units in general and not just these. You might want to try it in conjunction with one of the xposed modules called fake wifi and see if it will work. I was going to attempt this but I haven't tried yet. I've been pretty busy lately and it's been to cold outside.

As far as the mount, I used a Metra kit for installing in my truck but had to remove about a 1/16" of material all the way around on the inside in order to get the head unit to fit in it. Again, this is a pretty common occurrence from what I have read and not just with these units. In fact mine was already cut out from installing my previous double din unit a couple of years ago.

Concerning the steering wheel controls, in my '07 pickup I had to install one of the adapters "ACCESS-SWIC" I think in order to get it to work properly. I wound up only hooking up one wire to mine too.

All in all I think you have a pretty decent unit. I really like mine although I am always tweaking and playing with stuff.

Good Luck,

Steve

I Have a KLD unit for my 09' Mazda 6, and I just loaded a 64gb micro sd card in the GPS slot, and I use that for all my music, videos, and anything else. Just copy the files used for your GPS off the smaller card it came with, then load it on to a larger card. You could even put a 128GB card in there if you format it to FAT32.

Ive had the unit since summer '14, and have been a lurker on this forum from the day I ordered it. I appreciate everything everyone has to say.

i'm confused with many models of android head unit, and is it worth to choose quad core?

this HU (link) has dual-core RK3066

and this HU (link) has quad-core RK3188

is the quad-core customizable (root, custom tweaks, etc...) as the dual core? will the dual-core models have many more tweaks and custom settings?

Bluetooth auto connection

Hello,

I have klyde unit with MCU 2.20 and android 4.4.4

I have 2 cell phones I paired to the unit and I checked the auto connect option.

My problem is that the unit does not auto connect to my phone, I need to manually do the connection.

Does anybody has a workaround for this?

Thanks.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] CARRisma:
According to the info I have, my unit supports USB flash drives and SD cards up to 32gb. My music library is 65 gb and I understand that portable hard drives do not work so I'll have to use multiple USB flash drives. I see some people have had problems with USB hubs and the suggestion is to try a powered USB hub instead.

Yesterday I tried a (non-powered) USB hub with 3 flash drives attached and discovered that my JY unit would only see just one USB flash drive. The same goes when 2 were connected, only one could be read. Surprisingly, my JY unit would only still see just 1 USB flash drive when 2 were connected direct to the unit (no USB hub used). I would have thought this should have worked but it can only see one at a time, regardless whether a USB hub is used or not.

Would the powered USB hub workaround resolve my issue? Or is there anything else I could do?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] devilsoft:
The HU supports portable usb HDD. I'm using a portable 120GB SSD, and some other users reported that normal portable HDD works too.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Yes, Devilsoft is right, the units support hard drives of up to 2Tb and the same with USB drives, they will also read SD cards larger than 32Gb if formatted in FAT32. You dont have to use mulitple fash drives - just get a 128Gb drive. I have an issue where music cuts in and out with my USB drive, other people have had issues with 3G dongles doing something similar, we think its a voltage issue and can be prevented using a powered USB hub (but I ve not tried this).

Hi all, it's my first post but reading this since a lot...

I've got a KLYDE KLD v 2.20 with android 4.4.4 stock, specific model for Chevrolet Captiva.

My mobile is a Samsung galaxy S5

Answering to bluetooth pairing to phone, I've got the same issue, sometimes doesn't not pair automatically.

I also have got the OBD2 BT issue.

About the dongle USB 3G key I'm using with success this :

ebay object 131292599961 (copy and paste number in a search object on ebay site)

It configured automatically, using mobile APN vodafone in Italy. I've not set anything...

Also wifi sometimes doesn't automatically connect... it forget the ON OFF setting....

The internal microphone is good.

Sometimes the START application crashes, don't know the real name, maybe is startservice....

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] swanie2000:
I had the same problem. Unit was too big to fit the plastic mounting kit around the front bezel. Making the material thinner around the opening to get the radio to fit into it only weakens the mount. I was sure it would break over time if that was the only thing holding the radio in the dash.

The solution was at autopumkin. They sell a steel sleeve or cage that fits around the head unit. The sleeve also comes with a plastic trim piece that snapped around the radio bezel for a finished look. It sucked I had to wait another 3 weeks for that part to get here, but it worked well.

I still had to spot weld some brackets on the side of the sleeve, then drill the brackets to fit the dash mounting lugs. It took all day just to get the new radio to mount in the dash correctly. In the end, I have a very solid mount for the head unit, and it looks factory equipment, fits behind the dash bezel like the stock unit did.

IMHO, this sleeve and trim bracket should have came with the radio!

What version MCU did you have before ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] miaoudak:
MTCB-KGL4-v2.03

FYI: The can-bus decoder that came with the unit is connected to the unit to the TX -RX pins.

It is also connected to the reverse , illumination etc signals.

There no cables to KEY1, KEY2 pins.

Some tests I made before the update:

With a voltmeter I have seen all the 12Vcontrol signals (reverse illumination acc etc) which mean that the decoder decodes the can-bus correct.

I checked the TX RX lines with an oscilloscope but I did not see any activity, even while I was pressing the steering wheel buttons, I suppose I should see some data when I press a button)

I also tested the KEY1 input with a resistor connected to the ground and the unit detected a keypress.

So I suppose that I am having a unit that needs a can-bus adapter that generates resistive commands for my unit KEY1,KEY2)

Do you know if these units support both resistive and serial commands?

Any support?

AN-21 or HuiFei

Hey everyone. I currently have an AN-21 and I have loved it. The audio quality for both music and Mic is great and the unit works very well. I was able to work out most quirks very easily.

However, I am going to return it due to a defective GPS module. I am now in the market for a new unit and cannot decide whether to go for another AN-21 or to take a change and get a HuiFei unit. I worry about getting the HuiFei unit because it seems that it has many more "issues" (sound quality, button mapping, navigation in background, etc.) Has anyone here owned both units? Is one drastically better than the other?

Fascia size

To clarify, 2din comes in to flavours depending on metric used: 4" x 7" and 180 x 100 mm the second is slightly bigger!

Usually these chinnese units are almost 180 x 100 size so check specs and advise the seller before buying a fascia for your car, they usually offer both or, as mine, they made them 180 x 100 and include a vessel to fit the smaller size.

Problem:

Since 2 or 3 days both knobs on my JY (the universal model with two knobs on the lower corners) are miss behaving, for example if I turn the volume clockwise 5 points it will probable lower the volume the first 2, then go up and then low again, the same if I turn the other way round, its random no pattern. The other knob the same.

I have tried the 3 MCU versions available and also changed Android versions (including factory reset) but problem keeps happening.

Anyone has faced something similar? I´m leaning towards a hardware fault at this point, only good part is that found a use for the supplied remote hehehe.
