thank you and [MENTION=726096]antfros[/MENTION]

I have connected this red wire from adapter to red wire +12V power connector and now it work. I can listen to the radio but signal is not that stranght as in my old BMW Buissness Radio. There's still lot of noise.

The other issue is, that after turning off HU and turning ON it doesnt remember saved radio stations. I have to search it all again. Someone know how to fix it?

Second thing - i've done backup of my rom with NANDROID ONLINE BACKUP, selectet TWRP mode and now i got these files:

How can i extract MCU from it? I have MCU GS 2.06 version, would like to update it to GS 2.12 but before i do that i would like to backup it.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] uncleg:
Goto GPS menu in the settings and choose your favorite navi programm to assign to the button.

Goto factory settings and choose the proper FM-unit installed in your HU.

Do the export settings for the future MCU FW upgrades and you will not loose your mcu configuration (radio type, canbus type, bootlogo etc.). After export mcu.cfg file will appears on gps sd-card root.

Apply settings, Exit and Reboot your HU by reset button, you will have working radio.

No way, to get MCU by software methods.

Follow up after the initial install:

Very responsive unit, quite the upgrade from my 1Ghz WinCE/Native china unit I had before. Installed in an hour, very easy. Loving it in theory so far, just a few issues:

- Seemed to work 100% yesterday. Today, the USB is having issues reading a stick. Same stick it read fine yesterday. Noticed that the stick is constantly accessing, even when the power is 'off', which may be related to:

- Unit doesn't power down at all. When the ignition key is removed, it keeps playing. I have to hold the power button down and then it notes it's 'powering down', but it's really going to sleep. USB stick still flashing. Takes a second to come back to playing music when the power is hit again. Thinking the ACC and POW wires need to be swapped? I had read somewhere in this thread that some people did this, but I thought it was for other reasons?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Yes, it does sound like you need to swap those wires,its quite common when installing aftermarket stereos as often manufacturers do things differently to each other.

There is no problem, V2.08 is more up to date, its rare that people have problems with MCU updates. If you have a problem with V2.08 your only option would be V2.04 as there is no copy of V2.06 available . . . unless you can find one or you know a method of extracting the MCU from a unit.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
It is a confirmed issue with a specific manufacturer, I dont think that the re-seller is relevant to your problem - there have been similar problems that have affected a few units from the same manufacturer when most other units from the same manufacturer are fine, its just happened to to have affected a couple of units that were bought from the same re-seller. You need to get the re-seller out of your head as its highly unlikely to have any relevance to your problem !

Auto reading text

I have my texts auto reading through the HU so I thought I would help some people out if you are looking for something like this.

This works with my phone so it my not work for all. It never worked with my stock rom, but it works with CM Mod roms and the Google edition that I am using.

Install an app to your phone called A2DP Volume. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=a2dp.Vol&hl=en

Open it up and hit "Find Devices". Select your HU and hit edit.

Check "Enable Reading Text Messages". I leave the delay at 6s.

Then select Alarm Stream as your selected path. It might work with voice call stream, I had to use that on my Parrot Smart. If you stream music from your phone you might use music stream.

Last scroll down and save. You will need to reboot your HU if you are currently connected to it. you will know if you are connected by 2 ** next to your HU's name in the app.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
Great idea!!!! Good Find!!....the problem I run into with my HU is it wont play bluetooth streams (Which reading a text message for you is) until you open the Bluetooth app on the HU and send it to the back. My unit will however pick up a phone call without the Bluetooth app being loaded first if that makes sense.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] TooBusy:
Do you have a picture that shows that? Also, a picture of the front and back of the unit, if it's not too much trouble. If you didn't buy it from Eonon's web site, could you provide a link where you bought it from.

Cool (although obviously some of your instructions relate only to the front on your unit, others with different fronts may differ slightly). Any pics ?

My LEDs are on all the time, others have complained, but I dont mind - personally I think its more logical because if the stereo is off, then you need to see the buttons to be able to turn it on and the original nav unit in my car also had the LEDs on all the time.

Your headunit is not an Eonon, Eonon are just a re-seller (yours is likely to be a KLD, it will say in the MCU version box in settings/about device). I dont think its the kernel that affects the button layout, its the MCU version and the settings in system/factory settings.

JY headuinit BT pairing to MaxxECU

I rooted and installed XposedMTC on my new JY headunit to see if that would fix my bluetooth pairing problem, but it did not.

The unit I am trying to pair with is not a BT ODB adapter, but functionality should be similar. It is an engine control unit with bluetooth and there is an Android app called mdash for it.

http : / / www . maxxtuning . eu / maxxecu / mdash

The app works in demo mode, but I need to pair the headunit with my MaxxECU using the Android settings to get live data.

When pairing MaxxECU to my phone I have to enter the MaxxECU PIN on my phone.

When trying to pair MaxxECU to the JY headunit I don't get the PIN dialog, nothing happens.

I have tried a few other bloetooth apps but fore some reson it is only in the original bluetooth settings that I can discover the MaxxECU.

Any suggestions how to make this work?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
The BT stack on these HUs aren't like normal Android devices; it doesn't support most BT profiles. And you won't see the PIN pairing screen on these HUs.

You can try changing the HU PIN from the default to match whatever the MaxxECU's PIN is; that works for some.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Jobyteknik:
Thanks for the quick reply!

I have everything on my desk here for testing.

The headunit PIN is four digit. The MaxxECU PIN is six digit.

I tried changing the MaxxECU PIN to the same 4 digits as on the headunit. I could still pair from the phone but not from the headunit. Still the same problem.

Is there any simple way to debug this? I am a software developer but I have no prevoius experience of Android.

Perhaps I can use a phone to get logs from the MaxxECU pairing to see how it works, and what is needed on the headunit.
