I have discovered that no matter what I do, GPS is lost when iGO is in the background UNLESS I actually have it being used for navigation.

For future people searching this issue;

Using iGO as a "living map" will still cause GPS signal to be lost in the background.

Using iGO as a navigation (with a destination set) WILL allow GPS to function in background.

AutoPumpkin

Has anyone here ordered from AutoPumpkin and had to do an RMA?

I got a defective unit (RAM issue, sometimes 512, sometimes 1024, mostly crashing and not booting). Once that was identified and I did the firmware updates and resets they requested, I have no longer heard back from them (Tom). Answers were always prompt until I suggested the unit needed to be replaced and then no word back, so I'm feeling a little skeptical.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Graves33:
Ahhh man please dont scare me lol. My order is coming in today from them and Tom is who ive been talking to. im hoping i do not have this issue. If ur trying to get ahold of him right now it could be because they r closed in china atm.

My mind is overwhelmed from all of the info in this thread! LOL

My headunit is a JY unit, 4.2.2 purchased from EONON.

I would like to upgrade it, if possible. What is the latest/stable upgrade for this unit?

My other question, is which USB-OBD2 cable are you guys using with Torque Pro app?

Thanks!

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] chris.epp:
Last I heard from him was last Thursday, and I've sent him several emails since then... there is a weekend in there, but there were two working days as well... Hopefully he's just busy. We'll see. He was very quick to respond with answers to questions right up until I needed an RMA. Could be a coincidence, we'll see.

[edit] I must be fried. I'm on a 30 day work stretch without a day off, and came off a 36 hour work weekend. I just realized it's only Monday, so he really had only one work day... duh. I'm sure all will be fine. More a question of timing. Maybe he'll just send me a new SOM. :)

I'm going on a 12000km road trip up to Alaska/Yukon soon and I'd really like a functioning unit for then so hopefully this won't drag out! It was DOA, so I don't really want to be waiting to send it back, and a few weeks for them to 'repair it' and then send it back, that will be too late...

I currently have - MTCB-KGL4-v2.09. from that I assume I have a kgl unit and can therefore flash MTCB-KGL4-v2.47?

As for kitkat I have downloaded KGL_4.4.4_800x480_150115_rooted_light_reparted_init.d_v4.2. Is this the latest coudu firmware?

Connecting to a pc via usb only works if you have a front usb port.

Why did you put a KLD MCU on a KGL ? !! You have not bothered to read the first page have you ?

---------- Post added at 11:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

The reverse camera, like ALL aftermarket headunits, is designed to work when you are in reverse (hence the name "reverse" camera, thats why it behaves like that.

Cam in is designed for a front dash cam, thats why it behaves like it does.

Its not gonna work with either really, you only option is to try a plain old usb port and see if that works.

Other languages only allowed if you post the translation as well ;)

Its not an EONON - they are just re sellers, to find out what unit you have, read the first page !!

Video out only works with DVDs. You can see reverse as soon as you start up, Android has to reboot unless you add a simple circuit to keep it powered for a certain length of time.

All your questions could have been answered by yourself if you used the thread search box to the right - theyve been asked many, many times before.

Read the first page.

You dont know what a usb cable is ????? !!!! You can only use it to connect via ADB if you have a front usb port.

As I said yesterday, search the thread for how to get into recovery on Astra/Cruze models - your problems are caused by NOT READING things - its not hard to search "Astra" and "Cruze" and read through the pages until you get to the info you want is it ? Its what I would have to do to find the answer - I dont mind doing something for someone if they cannot do it and I can, but I m not going to spend my time searching through the thread to find the answer for you when its something you are perfectly capable of doing yourself. I m pretty sure it was this year it was mentioned, this should make it easier for you to find.

They are all stable, read the first page, all info you need and links to updates are on it.

Someone did report a certain cable works with usb, I cant remember the name of it, it wont be hard to find if you use the thread search box to the right.

---------- Post added at 11:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Well as the KGLs and KLDs were out its not surprising, if only you had had a little patience ! Still you could contact them and ask to pay extra for the quad core ?

NO - YOU ruined your stereo by putting the wrong updates on it and YOU cant be bothered to search the thread for the info you need to repair it, its all down to YOU - we ve tried to help you a HELL OF A LOT and your comments are frankly insulting.

Well, theres a lesson for you - I d have made sure it worked BEFORE any time was up with Paypal. Have you tried emailing aLL teh contacts at Klyde, not just the one ?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
They are, I read the whole thread through a translator, they are clever !

Nope, you dont have an Erisin, they are just a seller.

Yes, you can only use KGL4 MCUS, but you can use whatever version you want as long as its KGL4 . . and that its availbale, check the fileserver for where to get them. All the updates are on the fileserver, I think coudu did one in February as well, but we havent heard from him in months and DSA has been doing them since, so coudu's latest will be based on older firmware, DSA's are more up to date. You can use whtever version of Android you like, you dont have to use a KGL image, you can try out the KLD, JY and KYD images as well.

Really ? I thought you said yesterday that you put a KLD MCU on your unit ?

Ordered a "Joyous" J-2818W running on the RK3066 SoC.

Going to install it in my wife's Forester for mothers day. Hopefully she can figure out how to use it. Should be reasonably similar to her XZ3c.

I'm guessing this unit is just another branding of the devices in this thread?

J-2818W

Android 4.4.4

RK3066

1GB Ram

7" 1024x600 display.

Dual micro SD

All the other usual features.

Only concern really is the low powered amp at only 4x45w max. Must be like 15w RMS I suspect.

Anyone seen/used one of these particular units?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] supremekizzle:
Looking at this unit that pumpkin is selling. http://www.autopumpkin.com/pumpkin-...b2-dvr-air-play-7-color-button-indicator.html it's a Klyde quad core, no? Anyone know the actual resolution of the screen? If you look at this picture, they show that the speaker wires that come out of the HU are RCAs, which means they're low level. So I'd have to buy an amp in order to hook this up into my factory speakers? Doesn't seem right. Lastly, any development for this particular HU in the way of roms, tweaks, etc.? Thanks all

As its 7" you can have 800x480 or 1024x600 resolution. Like all the units in this thread it has speaker wires outs and RCA outs, the speaker wire connector (which also contains all the other usual wires) just isnt pictured. DSA has rooted the RK3188 ROM, all the tweaks that apply to the RK3066s apply to the RK3188.

Hi guys, I have rk3066 unit (GS) with kld android (latest version from typhos). And one question regarding calling - I connected my iphone with radio and all contacts are synchronized. When somebody is calling me then there is proper description of this person.

When I`m calling using bluetooth application in radio then also description which is showing is ok, BUT...when I`m listening to the radio or using navigation and somebody is calling then on the bottom of screen there is small window for call inormation and there is no description who is calling...only number (but this person is in my phone book and the same situation is with all my contact from phone).

How to solve it ? May you please check this on your units ? Maybe its kld connected and I should check KGL ?

Best regards!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] supremekizzle:
Thanks for your continued help homie. You're incredibly knowledgeable about these products. If they sell two different resolution versions, why the hell can't they denote which one is which? Makes it hard for the consumer. How are you able to tell? Specific item numbers? Also, they list the unit as 6.2", not 7.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Klyde say there are a few bugs in the ROM and it may be a month or so before they are sorted, so I would just persevere with it as it is and see if some new software comes out in the next month.

---------- Post added at 06:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:08 PM ----------

I m sure someone has mentioned something like this before and that the solution was to remove or put in, cant remember which, the + or 0 or maybe even the country code at the beginning of the number.

---------- Post added at 06:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:10 PM ----------

I can tell by the size of the screen in relation to the rest of the unit that its 7" (check yourself by looking at 6.2 and 7 inch universal devices), plus I know that no one makes 6.2" screens with 1024x600 res (it IS possible, obviously, but no one makes one). Some sellers may buy in a lot of units at a certain spec so only have the 800x480 available, some may not realise its an option, plus you have to factor in the language difference . I ve seen some quadcore devices listed but when you look at the spec its says dual core, because the units are the same as the dual cores, apart from the cpu and so theyve edited a dual core listing but havent changed the part of the listing that gives the processor type, maybe its sloppiness, maybe its the language barrier, who knows ?

Ask that seller for an upgrade to 1024x600 and if they dont do it then buy from another.

EDIT: Actually, looking again, I m wrong, I think it is 6.2", sorry :( You can confirm it by asking [MENTION=2942402]echudoba[/MENTION], he has that exact quadcore unit.

About newsmy, nothing new regarding RDS (but I don't mind, because I managed the XML to show my preferred stations :) )

My brother is just sending back a KLD made by KANOR specifically for a toyota prius 2012 with JBL amp.

Screen is 8 inches, ordered with a 1024x600 res, delivered with 800x480...

Sound was not as good as original radio.

Video from backup camera or birdview system was awfull...

Relations with seller: not really efficient...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Oh, sorry to hear that. I dont think Kanor are the makers, they just sell them KLD make them. Good job, cos it seems Kanor dont even know the difference between 600x480 and 1024x600 !!

I am trying to get my dash cam setup going using Daily Roads and a Logitech C930. I've got it setup to autostart on bootup and begin recording automatically.

The problem I'm having is that on bootup with the recording started, the picture quality is extremely bright/white (see pic below). If I interrupt the recording by stopping and starting, or "tapping to retain", the picture re-focuses and looks pretty good.

I've fiddled with the focus and scene settings but it doesn't seem to matter as it always looks like this on first bootup.

Sweet, if there's some cross compatibility then there's hope for software improvements!

Per channel though? The specs say 45w max.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
The software is exactly the same as the dual core, apart from the bits needed to make it run with the RK3188 processor, so it is not interchangeable with the RK3066 version, but in looks and functionality it is the same as the RK3066. Well, apart from that its faster cos its quadcore. All apps and improvements made for the dual core versions also apply to the quadcores. There are some bugs in the quadcore ROM currently that are expected to be ironed out in the next month.

I forget all the different versions of "watts" now, I know there are many, but all these headunits are as powerful as your average car stereo rated at 45W, they are not lacking in power at all, well not for driving 2-4ohms speakers anyway. They do have some faults and quirks but I ve not once in nearly a year and a half heard anyone complain about their output power that I remember.

There may very well be somewhere if you search for it - I ve seen some KGL 10.1" screen models advertised - if not it will just be a matter of time, the units are no different apart form the processor so there can be quadcore versions made with the same fronts as any of the dualcore versions. you could also ask sellers for a specific unit with quadcores.
