Worth a shot. This is the reason I don't use that ROM. It has nice features but the UI isn't my taste. But you can get the same features with the stock UI by making a couple simple changes the stock update.img using the RK3xxx tools. After install apply root with the factory code, install XposedMTC, PCV builder and Car Service. That's how I set my head unit up.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MynticeLX:
I've started having issues with my headunit and wondering if you all have any thoughts on how to fix it. The speakers aren't all working. The front right is always working, and the back left goes in and out. The other two can't be heard at all. When I move the sound around using the setting, if I move it to one of the speakers that isn't working, you can barely hear the sound.. but it's there slightly. I worry this is a hardware failure since I tried (for the first time) updating the MCU and the OS.

If this is an internal amp failure - do you think I can use the RCA outs to go into a 4-channel amp to pump the speakers? Thoughts?

Thanks for any help! Trying to avoid buying a whole new unit.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Telemachus:
First thing I would do is take the radio out and connect directly to a known working speaker. Dash is usually easier to take apart that the door...

That having been said, and intermittent speaker is more likely to be the speaker that is the problem, especially if it is OEM.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] koimr:
Eliminate the obvious (and easiest) thing first by checking your wiring. What you've described could simply be a loose connection. :)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] :
I don´t know why but i determined the problem, why tomtom crashes after some starts. Its the 3G Dongle, if i connect it, on next start tomtom is dead. I guess thats something with the option from the stick to insert a sd card there. I will use mobile hotspot on phone now and remove the stick, so i have a good and beautiful navigation now :).Yiiii
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MynticeLX:
It's 3 intermittent speakers. 1 of which is not longer factory. Is there a history of the internal amp going out in these units?

set night brightness level

Hi,

When I turn on the lights of my car, the HU screen brights a little bit less, but it still brights too much.

Is possible to configure the night brightness level?

Thanks,
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] dazza007:
Thanks - I tried using the sub out low phase input, without doing a 7 floor mod there is no control and continuing poor sound quality.

I was hoping that jet audio would resolve some of the sound issues, however the sound after reflashing the factory mcu (as the modded soundprocessor mod by darkleo causes other issues on my unit) the volume went up and down randomly. I ensured that rudder was unticked. I have replaced speakers, dynamatted the car, bought a sub so rather than replacing the unit or performing the 7 floor mod I have no idea how to get the sound balanced and the sound crystal clear.

I tried viper and the settings outlined on the front page and poweramp and the sound and passing of sound to radio and back to music is buggy.

I put the suggestion to the reseller to sell me another board or to get me another board if the mod goes wrong.

Unfortunately the head unit in its' current state cannot produce crystal clear sound that can be balanced.

I am more that happy to be proven to be wrong:fingers-crossed:

steering wheel buttons configuration

Hi,

Mainly I would like to configure phone handsfree buttons but I can't.

Does someone know a solution?

Thanks
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ColumbusTouareg:
I have searched for a while, but can't find the answer. My KGL unit in my VW Touareg will not power down. It's constantly drawing power all of the sudden. I had the unit just over a year, no issues before, but now the radio is pulling a constant draw and draining my battery. I narrowed it down that it is NOT the amp and only pulling the fuse for the radio resolves the issue from the fuse panel. Any idea on what i can do or is my radio bad now all the sudden?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Tung_meister:
Mine has done this a few times in my Golf. Have you tried reflashing the ROM or maybe changing the MCU?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ColumbusTouareg:
Actually i figured that's what caused it. It only started after an update to 4.4.4 and MCU of 2.53. I went back to a different 2.47 but still issue but still have 4.4.4 ..... I only had to flash it a few weeks ago after getting a notorious stop.google play error and couldn't get it to go away. I have a dash camera hooked up to get power too and I know for sure it's drawing power because that's turning on too. You think trying another flash and MCU version maybe??
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Tung_meister:
It's worth a shot. What ROM are you using?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ColumbusTouareg:
It's the RK3088 and i just tried the MCU of 2.02 and KGL 4.2.2 from 08272014 but no luck. It still isn't power down. I know it's isolated to the radio because when i unplug the square harness the issue goes away. I haven't changed any wiring but i guess i'll double check all of it. The small connector is NOT connected as I know that gives the VW constant power and not needed since CanBus. Just is frustrating because I like the head unit but draining my battery is killing me. It has to do with something in the unit. Any other suggestions?!

I had the same issue.. Sometimes the mcu reflash does not take away the sleep mode. I'm hoping we can get someone to program some soft coded power control.

I've had my battery dead two mornings already in the past week.

Good luck
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ColumbusTouareg:
Same here, Well i tried going back to Jelly Bean with a MCU of 2.02 but no luck. I then tried the 4.4.4 newest version on the site with 2.47 MCU and no luck, it will not stop drawing power..... I'm sure there has to be a resolution. Maybe someone will know on here. Glad to see I'm not the only one dealing with this issue now. I dont want to go back to the OLD OEM navigation but I might have to if I cant get the power draw to stop.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] dynamight4u:
I don't think it has to do with the rom.. I actually still have the stock rom but I've been testing mcu's.. lol

If your HU uses canbus to recieve steering wheel buttons signals, the configuration menu won't work. Try using MTC Keys app instead.

Question on OBD: tried changing the BT override in Xposed MTC and uninstalling the app altogether, but I can't seem to pair my device. I've backread here and watched the videos by JY but the moment I try and pair, nothing happens. My last guess is probably because my OBD's default PIN is 1234 instead of 0000... is there a way / file somewhere that I can just edit so that the HU will attempt to pair using 1234 instead of 0000 by default? Or better yet, is there a way to somehow replace the Bluetooth menu of the HU to be similar to the usual Android Bluetooth menu (i.e. one that actually prompts for the PIN code)?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] dynamight4u:
I still think it's the mcu not fully erasing and overwriting

But if your seller will replace your board and you can do the work all the power to you.

The only reason why I still think is the mcu is because I stayed with 2.30.. then flashed 2.55 with sleep but when I tried to flash back sleep was still there..

Flashed 2.78 and all of the sudden it was powering down.. sound disappeared so I reflashed 2.30 because I initially had it.. sound and sleep are back.

So it's like a mix and match of features lol.. wet need a full overwrite of mcu memory block
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Have you tried changing the pin on the headunit to 1234? That can be done in the Bluetooth app and in Settings -> Bluetooth.

There's no chance of a replacement BT implementation unless the kernel and OS sources are released. And even if that were to happen, it would most likely break the BT<->MCU integration, and calling wouldn't work any more.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] lawson7086:
Hi sorry i could not of replied sooner i have been driving away since monday and have not had a chance!

Well i have been using TT GO everyday using foldermount to mount my map folder onto SD card since i installed tomtom on my HU on sunday and its been doing a perfect job so far, and my HU is wired to my trucks ignition and turns off and on when i stop and start ETC, however i am a bit confused when you say,

("No, it's not good enough for our HU. It may be OK for a smartphone which is on all the time.

For example, if TT is the last foreground running app, as is the case for TT being the default navigation app, it will start before foldermount. ")

Tomtom does NOT start at boot up, (foldermount does and mounts the folder) Tomtom starts on demand and does not start until i tell it to!

So this is how it works with foldermount, once you have mounted the map folder (com.tomtom.gplay.navapp) to your SD card (only needs to be done once) every time you boot up the HU after about 5 seconds after boot you get a confirmation on the screen saying that "foldermount has mounted all folders successfully"

(As foldermount starts automatically on HC boot, unlike Tomtom ) once you see the confirmation you can then run Tomtom, of course if you try to start tomtom before its mounted the map folder Tomtom simply reports it can not find the map, but you only have to wait a few seconds after boot up and it's mounted, and you would be hard pressed getting tomtom to start before folderemount actually mounts the map folder, anyhow for anyone that's interested i can confirm that foldermount is a working solution for mounting tomtom's map folder onto your SD card, its working perfect on my HU, just as it has been for the last year or more on my Samsung S4.

However i would be interested in understanding what this "lsd" procedure is and how it works, do you have a tutorial?

Mate I didn't get much help also when asking for advice on which rom to use when flashing my HC to 4.4.4, i had to work it out for myself!

As for the loss of the volume control i had the same issue and fixed it, if i was listening to the radio and had Tomtom running at the same time with voice instruction enabled i would lose all volume control, i fixed this by going into settings, factory settings, typing in password 126, then hit enter, find audio control and changing the system volume, i put mine up and make sure you do not use the same number as the radio, hit apply, exit and reboot, it fixed the loss of the volume control for me, i can now have the Radio on with Tomtom running over the top with voice instructions on and i do not loss the volume control now, i hope this fix works for you also :)

Thanks for responding, I feared that the lack of published kernel and OS sources will be the main issue. I did try changing to 1234 on the headunit but ended up with the same result as well. I also tried bluetooth auto-pair but it was useless. Looks like the last option would be to borrow someone else' OBD with pin set to 0000 and see if it pairs just to confirm that it is indeed the issue, then eventually have to buy another OBD scanner with the same 0000 PIN so that it will work in my HU.

Hopefully I will answer my own question here. Eonon claims that their GA-F series (GA5162F would be the one for me) will show Android background and apps on external monitors over RCA. Is there someone here who can confirm this before I order headunit and two headrest monitors?

Also, if this is true it would mean that Eonon uses different hardware setup (which probably is true since they only have 800x480 resolution on their 7" screen where everyone else has 1024x600), have anyone here tried a custom rooted rom on Eonon devices?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] robertut:
I just discovered that the microphone on the front panel of the device performs better alone, without the extra mic connected at the back connector.

It seems that when both microphones are connected (back one with cable + the one on the front panel) quality is worse than when only the front panel is used.

So currently I'm using it only via the front panel.

There is also the option of doing the hardware mod to separate the microphones, but since my unit is brand new under warranty, this is no option for me.
