[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] themissionimpossible:
IMHO this remark from Sygic's needs some attention.

IMEIs of course are not included at factory in the Android HUs.

So, is it true that many (or all) HUs share the same Device ID, maybe only among the same HU model or manufacturer?

Do they come from factory with the same Device ID or the Device ID is changed to a common one only after installing a modified ROM?

I don't remember if this topic has been already covered on this forum...

I can only say that Sygic installation/activation was straightforward in my Eonon HU (and I didn't put any IMEI in the HU).
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Adso3000:
My IMEI was 123456712345677 which looks pretty damn generic to me. I'm on stock btw. I'm considering flashing a custom rom eventually but don't have the time right now to research how (which custom recovery etc) and the potential bugs regarding radio and reversing camera etc.

Installation is always a breeze, it's the reset thing about every time it connects to their servers over the internet. Makes me wonder if you don't connect to the internet often or haven't run it for long. Do you have a similar looking IMEI number?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] themissionimpossible:
I'm permanently connected through a 3G dongle.

But I've bought Sygic directly on their website and use the provided activation code manually entered on the app after installation.

Also app/map updates works nicely.

I don't have any IMEI, I'm on rooted original stock ROM.

Change malaysk font

Hi,

Using the latest version of malaysk rom (9th of March).

Is there a way to have the radio instant on? I recently "froze" my HU, no buttons worked and could not turn the unit on, but the radio still worked even when the car was turned off and back on and the HU was not booting up. I couldn't control volume or change stations, but this leads me to believe there should be some way to have the radio turn on before the HU boots up? even if it means not having volume control, or station control until the unit is fully booted up.

I eventually reset the head unit with a paper clip and works fine now, I'm not sure what happened or why it wouldn't turn on.

I have tried all I can think of to pair my OBD. I search for device it finds my OBDII Bluetooth I hit pair..... nothing. have tried x posed mtc and still nothing.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
It really seems to be hit or miss when it comes to BT OBD adapters. Some work well stock, some work well with the XMTC override, and some don't work at all. It's just the poor BT implementation on these headunits more than anything.

I've had luck with my generic ELM327 v1.5 adapter + XMTC and using the Torque app that came with the headunit/rom.

Hi TT_Vert,

Thanks for the update, I originally thought I did, can you point in in the right direction to find the correct resolution ROM, as I ve been back & forth on the site and now im confused.

I beleive that I have 800 x 480 resolution headunit

Thanks
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] TT_Vert:
Are you looking for a Malaysk rooted rom? If so, here is the most recent for you. Ensure you are 800x600.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] D33-83:
Thanks for your help, will download and give it a try
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] themissionimpossible:
If you see on the screen a smaller but complete image, IMHO this means that you have a 1024x600 display but you installed a 800x480 ROM, so the correct ROM you must install is a 1024x600 ROM.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] D33-83:
Thanks to everyone that answered, I managed to get the unit fixed and it's working, the person i had bought the unit off had advertised it as being 800 x 400, hence my issue.

On a side not, do all units show an icon when the door / doors are open, I've been checking the settings and can't see an option to enable this.

Thanks again to all that answered. Overall coming from an Alpine headunit I am impressed with the unit. However the fitting / finish of the unit could be improved and the radio signal improved.

So my new unit finally arrived. I tested it very fast and it seems that is running smoothly.

The sleep delay is working and the screen is very reactive compared to my present s150 roadnav unit.

The only issue at the moment I have noticed is about the wifi. ..in the same place where on my smartphone I have about 50% of signal strength the unit is not founding any signal.

How I can solve this problem?

In the settings I see that an isdb TV tuner should be installed but if I try to start the relevant app I see an exclamation mark on the screen. What it does mean? I see also many TV tuners choices in the settings but How I can set the dvb TV tuner for Italy and confirm it is really installed?

Is the fw installed in my unit already rooted?

Last but not least, taking into account the images attached below who can help me to backup my actual fw and wich is the mcu and custom rom to install? I need the backup just in case to revert to the original fw.

Thanks for help

Just get the FW for your resolution and CPU (3066), easy as that. You can add an antenna to increase range. Doubt it's rooted but I don't know.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] royalhawk2002:
I see somewhere that the relocation of the internal wifi antenna should be enough to solve the problem...did you hear about it ? Before to go to any Custom ROM, I wolud like to backup my original FW...anyone could link me the procedure ?

Before patching the custom ROM is it mandatory to patch also the MCU ?

I see that my MCU is the HA 2.80, from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3246386 I see that the lastest version for my Unit is the HA-BN v.2.85. Someone knows the differences ? Is the sleep function still working in the 2.85 ?

Sorry for many questions, but I am new on this unit ...
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] gk66:
You can't backup the firmware. Do a search here and you'll find links to stock firmware.

You don't need to update the MCU. Most advise against it if you have no issues that could be resolved by updating it.

There are "new units" out there, which have Android 5.1 instead of the "usual" 4.4.4.

Hardware seems completely identical to the RK3188 quad-core 4.4.4 units.

I hope that we RK3188 owners can update to 5.1

Therefore: Does anyone have a source for an 5.1 ROM Image?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] royalhawk2002:
I opened my unit and noticed that the wifi antenna (a simple wire) is fixed by means a piece of tape in the back of the display board. I have removed from there and I had used one of the side holes to get it out. Now the signal strength is perfect and wifi working well!

On the label placed in the back of the Hu for the long one is written ipod (optional) but it doesn't seam an ipod cable.

I think either USB will work for an IPOD, what are you trying to accomplish? You could take a voltmeter t the pins on the board connector and see what gets 5v, what is ground and then from there you should know what pin you need.

Error - the process google.process.gapps has stopped

Hello dsa,

Hope you can quickly clarify this for me. I have searched the old forum and the new forum and I can get a straight answer.

My KLD RK3188 head unit is showing errors saying that the google process has stopped (gapps). Everything else is working (it is KK 4.4.4 stock firmware and rooted). No one has been able to help me. So I decided that I should flash a newer firmware from the file repository. However, like you mention above - it is in two parts:

http://huifei.fs-fileserver.de/cont...D 4.4.4/800x480/KLD 800x480 20150820 Factory/

I am not sure if both of these files need to be merged. If they are supposed to be merged, how would I do this (what app should I use to merge the two files)?

-OR-

I am not sure if both update.img files need to be copied to the same root of the sd card. However, both files cannot have the same name and extension within the same directory, otherwise one file will overwrite the other. One file name will need to be changed. But I believe once you change the name, the head unit will not recognize it as a firmware image anymore.

Can you please clarify what I need to do.

Thanks,

ggee

Hey guys,

I have a klyde, rk3188 1024x600 for an audi a4b6

Unit was shipped with a canbus decodet but noticed two things:

1. Under factory settings can was set to no

2. From the main canbus connector there is white cable with a "special" plug only one pin used, white cable, white plug.

Fron the HU, main plug there are two additional cables with the oher end of the plug, one white, one blue. Spoked with klyde they said to use the white canbus whire with the blue one from the HU.

Can is not working:(

I enabled can in factory, position 22 / can for audi a4... Still no go...

Anyone encountered the same "problem"?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] TT_Vert:
Ok then just take a multi meter and see which pins have power and which are ground. that should only leave you with one or two wires less. My understanding is that pin 4 on a usb cable is for OTG. It's grounded for OTG and open for USB pass through.

Typical USB pinout.

Pin	Name	Cable color	Description

1	VCC	Red	+5 VDC

2	D-	White	Data -

3	D+	Green	Data +

4	GND	Black	Ground

In my old Roadnav S150, in the factory settings, where the possibility to change some "buttons profiles" to solve the issue. Is the same also here ?

2)Power down delay: If I have i.e. 30 minutes setup in the sleep timer and I will to power down completley, Is there a way to override the sleep timer ?

3)Some time Google Play gives no connection errors...is there a solution ?

4) I have a 3G dongle Huwaei E3131 that is working well with the HU but I don't find all the related options under "network settings" menu, i.e. Data On/Off, APN, etc.
