[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kwalsh24:
Hey all, haven't been around for a bit as I upgraded my radio last fall, however I am now putting my old KGL 800x480 unit to work again but its suffering from screen flicker issues. Has anyone else had issues with their unit having the screen flicker? Mine its the lower 1.5" that flickers when the screen is above half brightness. Any idea how much a new screen is? I mentioned this issue to my reseller that i bought the radio from and all he does is push firmware updates over and nothing else.

The unit is currently on 4.2.2 v2.09, can i upgrade the unit to one of the 800x480 KLD 4.4.4? Are the MCU's compatible across all versions (4.2.2,4.4.2,.4.4.4) ? as I see that the kgl unit (from what I can see & find) doesnt have a 4.4.2 or a 4.4.4 listed for the 800x480 models, only the 1024x600

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Welcome back. MCUs work across all versions of firmware, although newer MCU versions are needed for some OS interactions (e.g. standby timer). You should be able to update with any of the 4.4.4 images and be fine, even with the existing MCU that you have now.

Hello eyeryone,

I just installed this CARDVD into my Mercedes Benz W211 E320 - Pure-Android-4-4-Car-DVD-For-Mercedes-Benz-E-Class-CLS-Class-E280-CLS350-W211 - 1024x600

All works fine except the radio!!! The signal is absolutely a nogo! I tried several things: A new radio antenna with amp - no solution!!! In the settings of this unit (126) I checked it for Europe, all is ok. I don´t know what I can do to have a good radio signal. In attachment I will post you the data of this unit.

2. The WiFi Signal is also very low - cannot connect to my router if it is not nearby ( 2meters!!!)

Hope anybody has a solution for me!

Radio Problems

hello here I have a problem with my radio after a 5-10 minute i began to lose the signal and I have the tunnel effect with my radio and impossible to run again

only if I restarts the device it's work again for 10 minutes

you have an idea here are the pictures of my unit Klyde
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] OnkelDeffe:
Hai, die Qualität des Radioempfängers ist nicht so dolle, ob man da was dran machen kann bezweifel ich - du müsstest explizit nach einem Radio mit Philips Tuner suchen (die soll es wohl geben). Ebenso ist die verbaute WIFI Antenne ein Witz; ich habe mir bei Conrad eine neue Antenne bestellt, die ich dann einbaue (dazu gibt es hier schon einige Posts), mann sollte aber etwas Erfahrung mit dem Lötkolben haben, ist ziemlich frickelig ;)

Translation: unfortunately the qualitity of the inbuild radio units is almost poor; i doubt that you can do anything to get a better quality. You could lock for a unit with philips tuner inbuild; but difficult to find. The wifi antenna is a joke too; you could replace it with a better one but should have some experience with soldering... there are some posts about it in this thread
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] cheatman:
Hey guys,

I just wanted to bring a new device to the mix, a re-branded KGL 2-din RK3188, 1024x600 (quad-core) unit with a from Seicane (www.seicane.com), running Android 4.4.4 out of the box and MCU version MTCB-KGL-v2.06 (thus, KGL unit). It has no front-side USB and I haven't managed yet to boot it in recovery mode using just a mix of the buttons (reset/power etc.)

The unit I got is SKU: 101208 Model:K8405 and you can see it here: http://www.seicane.com/8-inch-andro...with-hd-1024-600-touch-screen-obd2-mirror-rad

You will notice that the site advertises it as RK3066, but I can confirm it is actually a RK3188 with 1GB RAM and 8GB internal storage. Google Play has also detected the chip as being RK3188 when it was reported to the device manager. I wanted to mention that I have successfully flashed it with the 1024x600, Android 4.4.4 rooted image and it works very well. I mainly wanted root, xposed and a new DPI (running at 180DPI at this time). Also, I had some issues with the 3G dongle setup, which I solved by configuring the proper APN settings (the default stick config was wrong). I used my own stick, a huawei e372 which didn't get signal and a huwei k3565 which worked fine post APN configuration. Others who can connect a 3G dongle and see the signal bars in the UI may find the APN settings are wrong. If you get a signal, you should be able to connect to 3G as well. Also, the dongle is not detected at every start. Sometimes I have to take it out and plug it back in to get it detected. Once it powers on, it works without issues.

Wifi, Bluetooth and 3G performance are above average and I use them to create an AP in the car and hands-free calls. Sound is great on this unit, no noise or hissing in the background. The speakers are also very loud (without loud enabled, factory speakers), I cannot even stay in the car past volume level 15. The microphone is also excellent in my particular unit, it even picks up sounds from outside of the car (other cars engines etc.) and Google Now is a joy to use. I am still struggling to remap the head unit front keys, but have not been successful thus far. The cabling, connectors and the front panel layout were a perfect match for my VW Passat B6 and was easy to install. It is easy to mount and fits snugly into the dash (I will post some photos later, if anyone is interested).

I have not decided which launcher to use yet. The default one works fine, but I hate the default music app due to its lack of shuffle functionality, so I need to use other apps and widgets (thus, another launcher). If you have any suggestions for launchers which support large app icons and look nice, let me know.

That's it for now, I just wanted to let Google index this post so others looking at this type of unit know it can be rooted and updated properly.

Cheers,

C.

KitKat Bluetooth issue....

Hi All!

Today I did tested a Bluetooth TPMS system. The Bluetooth satandard of the TPMS Receiver unit is BTv2.0.

- Does not work with my HU. Can not pairing. The system does not promt the pairing code request. So do nothing, can not use it.

- Does it works well with my phone (android v4.2.2). The system request the pairing code, type it, pairing well, works well. So, in this case it is usefull, informative etc.

So, this is the 2nd Bluetooth device (other one is my OBDII Bluetooth module v2.1), which is does not works with my HU, but works well (without any problems) with ~any android version before KitKat...

My very lame question for professional programmers& developers: Any information about, how could we get a solution that Bluetooth problem ??? ... -or I must change my "medicine" droppings, and do stop that type of dreaming ?? ... :)

Thx Guys...

3G cellular Dongle that works with KGL Android Navigation unit

The Huawei E303 sold on Amazon (ASIN: B00P5UJA0Q) was reported by another user to work well with his KGL unit

---------- Post added at 02:17 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:13 PM ----------

I have noticed on my KGL unit in the system settings (the area at the bottom where I have to enter passcode 126), there is a section which offers about 6 different BT settings. Mine came preset to "6", I notice I could change the setting and my BT would no longer pair, when I put it back to 6, it would pair again.

Maybe your unit has the wrong setting? It might be a longshot but you could try the other settings, you have to reboot each time you change.

I did try all of variations of that settings. There is no other results. Only works with "BC6". Pairing with my phone (android v4..2) works well. Popup a window to request a pairing code, type it, pairing, works well all of functions.

This is likely due to the contents of install-recovery-2.sh, which iirc, is set to start Poweramp and play music at boot time by default . You can either hand-edit the file or use the app by devilsoft to disable that behavior.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] jperezch:
You should disable Poweramp autostart in install-recovery.sh file. Or you can let Startup Builder App modify it for you.

I more or less forgot I'd have to remove the unit back from my car's dashboard to make that picture you asked. :silly:

So here it is, with a bit of delay.

Note that the flexs' are tucked under the mainboard, as they'd otherwise obstruct a clean airflow over the cpu.

The fan itself is mounted with a self-made metal hook, and it blows at a slight angle down over the SOM board.

I've seen to many of these stick-type heatsinks lying around loose in pc's ect (which do not move) after a couple of years of use, so I decided against using that in a car where the radio is being rocked and shaken every day;

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] kaween:
In most dashboards, there's _no_ ventilation at all and the temperatures go up very fast in the summer.

As I wrote before, the temperature of the cpu goes up really fast (60°c) even when sitting on my testbench at low ambient temps.

One of my previous units died due to oveheating, not going to risk it with this one especially since the JY unit I'm using has a p*ss-poor thermal design.

Getting iPod Touch to work with JY 4.4.4 and MCU 2.53?

First time poster - just installed a JY 8 inch with RK3188 and 1 Gig of memory running KitKat and MCU MTCB-JY-V2.53 (April 28 2015 10:17:46). Purchased the iPod specific cable from Joying, and plugged it into the circuit board header. When I plug the iPod in and start the iPod app, it recognizes there is an iPod attached but never seems to finish reading the iPod contents, so there are no songs to play. I've left it for 6 minutes, but it never changes from the "no songs" initial message.

Loaded Malysk's 20150610 ROM, and left the 2.53 MCU in place. After a little tweaking I've got a very nice unit, but the iPod app still never loads the contents of my iPod Touch. I pulled the iPod Touch and plugged in an older iPod Classic but it does exactly the same thing.

The iPod Touch has 8950 songs, and the iPod Classic has 12300 songs. Both these iPod's play fine on my Pioneer AVH-x8500 unit, but will not play on the JY.

1 - Does anyone know if the iPod apk has a limit on the number of songs it can read from an iPod?

2 - Does anyone know of a third-party music app that could access the iPod, or is it limited to MCU app's only?

Thanks,

Graham

Bluetooth calling

Hello,

Just upgraded to Malaysk latest rk3066 on KLD unit.

2 questions:

1. I connected my phone with bluetooth. When trying to sync my contacts on the bluetooth app, the bluetooth connection is disconnected and then connected again. The contacts does not sync. I tried re-pair the phone and the unit, but it did not help. What can I do?

2. I saw there is an option on Malaysk rom to make calls using 'true contact'. I succeeded making a phone call using this app but it is not so comfortible... Tried to download a dialer from the play store (rocket dialer) but could not dial using the dialer. Is there an option to use a dialer or a diffrent contacts app except 'true dialer'?

Thanks.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
True double-DIN would be 180x100mm exactly. Alpine and Pioneer units marketed to the US, would put those measurements to 7.086614173 x 3.937007874 inches, which is usually rounded one way or another. The standard doesn't take into consideration faceplate overhangs or odd sizes, nor do most sale listings for these headunits (the exception being for some specific vehicles that have odd-sized fascia openings, but a rather normal double-DIN hole behind that).

Aside from finding a unit that will fit the hole perfectly, you'll probably run into the issue that I have, which is the pre-drilled mounting holes on the side of the unit are either too far forward or too far back for "standard" mounting brackets, thus leaving the headunit sticking out too far, or not far enough. So unless you can find a model made specifically for your vehicle, chances are you'll have to do some modifications/fabrication to make one of the universal double-DINs look appropriate.
