Nice that you are progressing with sound.

Well, my brackets are different. I see yours have two levers each (top and bottom). Mine only have a lever at the top. I complained to Keylo when I got them, because I was expecting the unit to be hold by 4 points to the cage and not 2. But, no luck.

You should check that you did not get the Audi TT or AUdi A4 brackets.

I remember that when googling about this I found these have 2 levers, instead of 1. It could be that your seller made a mistake and sent you the wrong ones.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
Try these:
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] blankers:
Thanks for the updates. They all install now, but only the first one works. The others say 'the radio has stopped' when i run them.

Can't see much difference between this first one and the original one you posted before. Perhaps you could post pictures of the various different versions, would make choosing one easier....
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Are you sure they are that basic ? I ve seen several listings for these units that claim "dual channel CAN Bus" (I think they mean 2 way) and they show climate info, trip computer info and a car menu (auto locking on/off, follow me home headlights on/off etc) on the headunit. I ve also seen an app aswell. Does your unit ahve a CAN Bus app ?

Pity you couldnt try the decoder that worked on your previous stereos.

I dont really thnk it matters much at all as long as the unit is held in place. The standard single DIN factory fitted unit on my car is held in with 4 "levers"/clips, the optional factory fitted double DIN is held in by only 2.

As long as it fits flush and doesnt move, it ll be fine.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
Sorry, I did not test them because I just made little changes and assumed they would work.. The only difference should be the background. It should be red now (it was in my Android Studio). The ones that do not work, I changed the text to be output on the counter instead of the lcd.

I made the one you say that works a bit more red (I updted the post before with this new apk.)

I am leaving for holidays, so I have no time to look into the other two. I will when I am back.

The new background is this one in the attachments.

Need help - Power cable damaged

My power cable is damaged, you can see it on the photo below, its ****ing up my car speakers.

I requested a replacement from the provider and its going take some time, and i need to have it fixed before then.

The power cable has a short circuit that damaged my car speakers, they are burned now.

Is there a fix for this cable?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] pakidermo5000:
yes, there is. you will probably need special pliers to remove those. Google is your friend.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kwalsh24:
Yep, mine said it had the same 2 way / dual channel canbus, it wont even properly send the days to the MFD that my dash has, just says Multimedia System & then freezes the MFD up. My radio didn't come with any apps to show climate control or anything along those lines.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] sickbro80:
I'm pretty sure the constant power and the ground are both larger pins to carry more current. The first picture looks like they might be a little chewed up, but nothing that should prevent it from working. on the other side i'm not sure about. I seem to remember mine sticking out a little bit like that too, but I could be wrong. I'll have it out at some point today working on some other stuff and I'll see if I can post a picture. I think my connector is exactly the same as yours.

Dual farka

Hey guy's I have a VW GTI, and from my OEM unit it has dual fakras and the android unit has the one din connector for the radio.

Does anyone have experience with using the dual fakra - din adapters?

I'm thinking about buying the CONNECT2 CT27AA56.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kwalsh24:
I'm just using a standard eBay purchased adapter, no real issues. I find any aftermarket radio didn't get as good as the factory radio does with reception, my reception with my radio is okay, could be better but I've had a lot worse.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] sickbro80:
So I updated to 1.86, and now my button mappings are all off too. Menu button is now power/mute. gps button I think is the back button now, which I didn't actually have a hardware back button before. Also the dvd player audio stopped working. Everything else works still. I thought I would be pretty safe with this, since my shipping label said HuiFei as the company that shipped it. I was on 1.85 before though, and I don't really see that version mentioned at all for the HuiFei. Anyone have any idea if this is made by one of the other manufacturers? I'm just considering myself lucky at this point I didn't brick anything.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] blankers:
No problem. I'll wait till you are back from holiday...thanks.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] typos1:
Youre no more or less safe with HuiFei either manufacturing or re-selling.

I should contact them and tell them the update has messed up your buttons, assuming you got it from them or OTA.

I tried with google music :

Next button pause the music on google music and play it on my default music player (poweramp)

If I kill poweramp process and all others players and deactivate "music" application on system settings, google music works well with my app.

So, firstly, check you did not invert next and previous keycodes. Then, try to kill or uninstall the other music players.

In the case of the Malaysk rom it will go through the upgrade process without erasing your data and will do all the "optimizing apps" thing after the upgrade. Then you will see your homescreen with all apps intact. THEN it will reboot and do a wipe. The interesting thing would be, how to stop that.

Hi !

I've succeded in update from usb stick with malaysk build from mirror (v180815). Works fine beside ugly thème of next launcher version but i'll switch for nova soon. Hope i'll not face the factory reset bug again.

I've one last question... How to remove the "rear view" which automaticaly activate itslef when i go on rear gear ? It shut down everything including screen and music for a bad "no signal" black screen :( i've searched in the car settings and disabled all related to rear help but no effect.

Also no modded bt app with song title available ?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] grahamwright1:
Settings, Factory Settings, 126, then disabled 'Rear Camera' and you should not see the "no signal" screen.

As for the Bluetooth, I hope someone knows of a BT app that displays the song info, but I have not seen one.

Settings/driving settings/Reversing volume on. i.e if you still like to have sound during reverse. If you don't like to have the screen go

blank you need to cut the reversing wire. In the case of Klyde it's orange with a black stripe..
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Twilek:
No the partitioning is the same. And keeping the settings and data shouldn´t really be a problem as the Androidversion is only minimally upgraded. Malaysk said that it seems to be a mechanism intentionally build into the chinese Android build all the roms here based on. It would be essential I think to find the mechanism and disable it.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] cocchiararo:
there are settings somewhere for NOT muting/stoping music.

As for the black screen itselt, i believe the only option is to not connect the cable that allows the device to detect the reverse gear.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Telemachus:
The newest JOYING firmware comes with Google Search 3.3.12.1106182.arm

AND IT WORKS GREAT! If I upgrade to a newer version on the play store it crashes. I'm happy at least to have this working.

Now onto tackling the buzzing on the bluetooth mic. I thought that since my unit has an external mic, it would be avoided. However, it appears as though both internal and external mics are just extensions of each other.

I attached the external mic port to the bluetooth module and cut a trace, and it is improved, but still not perfect.

Any sourced on a shielded microphone jack?

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] MasterPHO:
Sorry for the late update.

In regards to the reverse camera I finally managed to get it working. As DSA mentioned above the reverse camera wireless receiver needed to the correct +12V wire to power it. Mine happened to be an orange/brown wire which is split with one end already connected to the CANBUS module (red little box) which signals the headunit to go into reverse mode; I soldered the other split end to the receiver's red wire and grounded its black wire to the headunit's black ground wire. Then I connected the receiver's display RCA cable (yellow) to the unit CCD-camera female RCA cable (yellow).

And Voila! I was getting visual feed from the wireless transmitter (hooked up to the wireless reverse camera and getting power from the reverse tail light).

Now for the MTC service.. I couldn't work out the problem and decided to reflash the ROM and got it to work again.

I will keep a close eye on it to see if the problem occurs again.

Now for the bad news. After 2 days after installing the reverse camera my headunit decides to play up. The following actions causes my screen to go completely black but everything seems to work as per normal (Bluetooth, SWC volume, call answering etc..):

- Putting the car into reverse.

- Turning headlights on or off

- Receiving or making a telephone call (Bluetooth)

Once the screen goes black I am required to use the reset (RST) button to restart the unit for the screen to work again. I have a feeling this is MCU related.

I am sending my unit back to the seller for repair. And will keep you updated.

I need to flash it back to stock ROM and looking at the typos' repository (KK 4.4.4 Quadcore) I couldn't find a stock GS 800x600 ROM. Can I just use the JY one? Need one that has the Bluetooth controls on the left of the screen. This is just so that I don't void my warranty.

Steering wheel controls for Non-Native Apps.

Has anyone found a way to enable the steering wheel controls (namely next and previous functions) to work on any music app or media app? My steering wheel next and previous buttons have been programmed on the head unit and work only with the native music app. I know there are apps out there like CarService that allow you to control another music apps but I want to be able to control any music app or media app with next and previous functions without having to jump through hoops to do it; Simply turn the unit on, open music/media app of choice and control the next and previous functions from steering wheel controller. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.

I use petrows mtcservice with poweramp. You might want to check the settings of your apps because they if you have more than one controlling the same feature (eg steering wheel controls), you'll get weird things happen (double skip etc)
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
This is not 100% possible because not all apps use the same media button intents. Some app developers choose to not implement the "standard" Android media intent receivers, so there's no universal way to control every media app.

The best one can do is support the standard Android media intents, and try and add support for individual media apps that use non-standard intents as best you can.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Nightwchtr:
Kruuth, if you have unlimited data like I do your best bet would be to do the hotspot off your phone. I could never get mirroring to work with my phone, not to say that it couldn't but with mirroring comes a whole bunch of issues that need to be addressed (i.e. phone type, HU compatibility, etc...). If not find out if your phone is even compatible with your HU to do Mirroring and or if your phone even supports mirrorring.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] marty_s13:
Maybe this isn't the right place to ask but I've noticed with here maps that it thinks I'm pointing in a different direction than I'm travelling. In drive mode its fine but in a 2D map the point of the waypoint is pointing almost upward and doesn't seem to follow the way I'm travelling properly. Like its always locked to north. Maybe this is just a here maps problem, I need to check out google maps a bit more. Anyone noticed anything like this?

It might just be the way I'm viewing it. driving in 3D is fine. I'm heading straight ahead. But in 2D map mode the map doesn't move around with the way I'm heading so its always got north to the top. I end up travelling down roads when I always want the way I'm travelling to be up.

I think I just need to figure it out more. The GPS doesn't have a direction compass like a phone right?

Also the settings area in the app is empty. However the settings in drive mode down the bottom appear.
