[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] sciallo:
I would suggest hot glue rather than super glue...

Superglue bonds surfaces by melting them together and it becomes a bit too permanent. Hot glue can still be removed carefully without damage to parts but it will hold just fine and you don't risk melting ribbons...

Just my two cents

Yep, that makes 2 units out of very few. So, it must be a concern. Could you post some pictures? This will help us check for integrity and avoid problems like the one that happened to [MENTION=517163]webdude12[/MENTION].

Did you buy it from GreenPoint or Keylo? It could be a seller/batch related issue. AFAIK, [MENTION=532077]blankers[/MENTION] was the first to have the unit and has not mentioned anything.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] optx:
If you have 2 wires, that are plugged together @ the powercable with canbus decoder part, try and unplug them.

This solved my problem, and when i turn off the engine now, the Radio shuts down too.

Maby this helps for you too....
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
Not sure the firmware on the wiki has the BMW MCU. You should take the one from the repository.

To get BMW logo back, you have to choose it in the Factory Settings (psswd: 126). There you choose the logo you like, there are 3 for each brand.

you will not get igo back. You have to install it. You wil have to ask your seller for this.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
Yes rooting should work. LOUD I am not sure as tasker calls microntek module from MCU, and RM is not microntek so I am not sure it will work. You can try, though.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] mikejclark:
Anyone had any experience with the Audi a3 unit? Fitting the unit was very straightforward but I've not got any sound from the rear speakers. I've read on another forum that my a3 (not Bose) has amplified rear speakers, so I guess this is something to do with it. Anyone know what I need to do to get the rears working?

Overall I'm very happy with the a3 unit. Matches the dash perfectly.

I keep an NFC tag in the car that triggers my s4 to turn on WiFi AP and Bluetooth, don't even need to take my phone out of my pocket!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
It depends a lot on which model of A3 you have. I have A3 8P 2005 non-bose and the sound system is half amplified in the rears. I had problems to get the sound to the rears. I did many trials and I think that in the end I just connected the cables as they are meant to.

The weird thing is that it was the first thing I did but it did not work the first time. So, I think that you have to completely turn the unit off (remove any power source) and the car off between trials. If I am not wrong, the car tests all the electrical parts when it turns on. If one part is "dead" it automatically shuts it down and it won't work until you stop the car and start it again.. It is a safety measure.

The same thing happens with bulbs. When the car turns on, it checks the bulbs. If one bulb is fused, the car detects it and shuts it down. If you change the bulb without stopping the car, it will not work. It will only work when you restart it.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] mikejclark:
Thanks for the reply. I have a 2007 8P. How have you connected the blue wire? I've read somewhere that this wire needs to be connected to the amp to let it know when to power on. Not sure if this is done with the standard wiring

Hello everybody, I already have an S150 in the dasboard of my Subaru Legacy. Tired of the poor performances of the 1.2 dual core with 512M ram resistive touch screen. I would replace the unit with the quad core HuiFei RK3188 with 16GB rom 1024x600. So few questions:

Are the connectors compatible between S150 and rk3066 series? I mean the main connector with power and speaker connection.

Where the best chinese shop to buy it?

At the end the price difference between 1024x600 and quad core is not so much. Is there any issue or problem choosing quad core and 1024x600 instead the lower one?

Thanks in advance for any answer and suggestion.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Tumke32:
Great! I'm looking forward to your review. My radio is not a Klyd but a Witson with a MX MCU, so i don't know if this external box will work. Witson has some external dvb-t boxes, but i dont know i you can receive dab with it and which app it will use.

I'm looking for dab+ and the possibilities on my unit for while since the reception of radio on my Headunit is a bit disappointing. Internet radio is an alternative, but will cost data and money every month. DAB+ is free on air, you have the invest money ones and you get digital radio on your radio for life.

I think DAB+ is the future and in the Netherlands i should work well, the coverage is good. And there are many more countries were the coverage is good. So why messing around with this old FM / AM radio. Lets focus us on DAB+. There are cheap ways to get it work on our units, a RTL2832U based dongel is cheap (10 euro) and has a good reception (you only need a external antenna which is more expensive and needs installation).

The only problem is a good app witch TA etc, steering wheel control etc. Wavesink is not very carradio friendly. Is there somebody who can develop or customize a radio app so we can use it with this cheap usb dongles, so we can use it in our cars with all the benefits like TA, steeringwheel control etc?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] devilsoft:
Yes, this version should fix the issue.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
You dont have a Witson - Witson are simply resellers, forget them, they are irrelevant for this thread, you have an "MX" version.

I m aware of Wavesink, its been discussed several times before, as you say, the appp is not very car friendly. Another way that I favoured until Klyde released the DAB was radio via DVB-T, which is digital, but, in the UK at least there are not as many stations available as there are for DAB.

Unfortunately DAB is the future, I say unfortunately because the sound quality is much worse than FM, especially in the UK where we are stuck with DAB (no DAB+) which uses MPG2 codec, not the aac codec that DAB+ does.

The DAB module from Klyde is, as I said before DAB/DAB+ and it supports FM switching (if there is no DAB signal), its used by Philips, Pure Audio and Blaupunkt. But you may have to buy a new unit, because as I said before Klyde have modified the board, I ve tried the box on my older Klyde and it doesnt work.

Someone could write a different app for the wavesink, that would be ideal, especially as it does FM and DVB-T as well - one car friendly app for all your tv/radio needs, but its a big ask and a lot of work . . . and its way above my pay grade !

The connectors in ALL car stereos are pretty the same, Android, OEM, aftermarket non Android car stereos, theyre pretty much universal, if there are differences it will be down to your car manufacturer using a different connector, but you can buy adapters.

I d recommend a KLD not a KGL, personally. Buy direct from KLD on alibaba or aliepxress.

"not installed" appears on DailyRoads Voyager ? if not appearing, then it's safve to select that...it will start the service on startup.

CORRECTION:

I just found that Pro and normal, has different package names. I added that pro version too on list. It's not tested though, so please report if works or not. Re-download the apk from my Dropbox shared folder.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Navall_75:
Yes shows as not installed, I did turn it on anyway but did not work not sure if regular and pro are installed in different directories and that's why it's not working.

Just downloaded PCVStartupBuilder_2.3.3 (Build 4).apk is that the new one with carservice under "Kill inconvenient apps", ?

I can't skip to another track. sometimes it works but usually is does not work. Has it something to do with the pvc startupbuilder? Is someone else encountering these same problems?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
There were numerous requests to alter the default mode switching behavior. There's zero way (that I know of) of modifying the stock MTCManager behavior without doing some sort of code injection (short of smali, which would have been almost impossible). And java as a language itself allows for it, with reflection. The Xposed Framework just makes using reflection easier.

Android isn't the only mobile platform to offer this though; Objective-C has reflection and introspection functions as well.

Alteration of this particular manufacturer's work is what keeps this thread going. Imagine if no one could develop for these headunits? We'd be in the same boat as the Ca-Fi Dashlinq folks. Sure it'd be great if they just open source their entire code base, and all included MTC apps. I'd gladly ditch using Xposed if I had access to the actual java source and could rewrite some of their methods to perform things differently. Hell, fixing all sorts of things would be easier with the source. But we all know that will never happen.

I don't mind that you dislike the Xposed Framework, and any modules that have been written for it. But without it, there would be less opportunity to offer more functionality from base system images and apps. Choice is what makes Android great, and having the option to choose additional functionality is what motivates some devs to continue developing.

Additionally, the system deleted bunch of files off the card. I've tried to put the iGO map data (2.5GB) and about 8 GB worth of music on the card, but the system deleted the map data and bunch of my MP3 files. It keeps only 5.5GB data on the card. I don't think my microSD is "fake". It's a Samsung EVO 32GB card. I could format it and copy files to it OK.
