Ok, looking at it closer I think I see that the wires just loop under the board. Next time I pull mine out I'll see if I have that connector on my board. Does yours have any type of 'fan control' in the software settings or is it just on all the time.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Maybe ask [MENTION=4339055]pakidermo5000[/MENTION] to add the post #s to the first post regarding all the TomTom work you've done. It's definitely helped me out with getting TT working properly, but like you stated, this thread is huge, and finding data isn't always the easiest for new folks.

Yep, see attached. You basically use a standard 12V Bosch-style relay to alternate power supply from the switched ignition and the battery constant, depending on if the coil is energized. One feeds into the delay-off module, that's configured to pass the Vin to the Common pole of the relay (jumper S5 connected to both pins). Also, make sure jumper S6 is across its 2 pins , and not on S7. You can choose which other jumper configuration you'll want, depending on the time delay range, and then tune it with the rotary pot. Both 12V inputs go into the headunit harness ACC line, each with a Schottky diode (which has a lower forward voltage drop).
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
That looks easy enough. I don't know whether to use a Bosch type relay or get one of the smaller ones and put it all in a little project box.

I have another question for you. Just got back from a long (1900 mile) car trip with my wife. I have 'my' music on the SD card and we have decided to put 'her' music on an ipod and just hook it to the HU when we use it. I realize we could do the same thing with playlists etc. but this works out easier. Is there anyway for 'PowerAmp Toast' to also work from the internal stock ipod app on these units. It would have really helped when we had the GPS active to have the little 'toast' pop up on the screen like it does with poweramp. Didn't know if this was a possibility or not.

Hello. I have this universal that I just installed in my wifes car. http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6424653397.html?orderId=65223324515217 Has anyone seen this model before? It's not bad for the price but I'm trying to find any information I can because it has this annoying defect that No sound comes from the unit unless I stick a needle in the resest button every time I turn the car off and on. I have 4 days left to file a dispute with aliexpress so I can exhange without issue. I have been in contact with support and they are asking me what the MCU number is on the device? I have no idea what that is and where to find it. Any help please? Thank you.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Shouldn't matter which relay you use as long as it can handle at least a few amps.

I can take a look at the ipod app and see if it presents any of the track data via intents.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
That would be absolutely awesome!!!!

Steve

---------- Post added at 10:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

MCU is the 'interface' between the software and hardware. It is in many ways similar to a BIOS file if you are familiar with computers. On your head unit go to settings -> about and it should show you what MCU version you are running. If you attempt to update the MCU with a file that does NOT come from the manufacturer be careful. They are specific to eac brand of mcu.

BTW: That seems to be a pretty decent price on that!

Steve
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] TTJB:
Thank you sir. I checked the settings and about prior to posting the first time and nothing was there with MCU. Any other suggestions?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
No, I sure don't. That is typically where it is. You might want to check over in the AN-21U or the ouko threads and see if anyone there can help. Those types may list the MCU different but are all android based units. I am not sure what actual type you have. It might take a bit of detective work to track down exactly what you have.

Maybe somebody else will chime in here.

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Doesn't look like the iPod app sends any intents when the tracks change, but I can catch the methods the activity uses to update the UI via Xposed. I had talked w/ [MENTION=2067704]dark alex[/MENTION] about other PAToast modifications that would be easier (for me) to achieve with Xposed, so I may introduce an optional module for this.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] comptechltd:
That would be great.

Also, looking over the diagram for the power delay. If I understand the logic correct, anytime the acc is on the relay opens the circuit. Once acc power is lost it closes and power to acc is sent from constant power to the acc of the HU based on the timer setting in the module. Can the delay be set on the bench or does it have to have the actual HU draw on it to set the time correctly???

Steve
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] the-fabio:
*push*
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] agentdr8:
Yep, with ignition on, it powers both the relay and sends the "on" signal to the headunit directly. When the ignition is off (temporarily during cranking, or otherwise), the constant powers the delay-off module, which then applies power to the headunit acc wire for the pre-determined amount of time.

I set the delay of mine on the bench (err, kitchen table, much to the disdain of my gf) without a load attached. I don't believe the load should affect the timing one way or another.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] dark alex:
You could try xposed module "Fake Wifi"

Probably it's limiting access due to mobile networking (there is one hand internal android logic and on the other hand probably programmed locks)

Radio AF function problem

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ultradj83:
Dear, your latest KGL 800x480 is always fast and stable, but there're some little issues I'm not able to fix, here's from the most important:

Also via Wi-Fi, playing video streaming with any app, connection fails and it's necessary to switch off and on Wi-Fi to make it work again.

MTCservice sometimes crashes and all hardware buttons stop working until reboot, I see the system trying to resume it but it crashes again in a few seconds, how to fix this?

Audio focus seems to not to work correctly when GPS app is running, my unit is set to mix at 0dB in the GPS settings and problem is confirmed with any music/video player, here's what happens:

Music playing at normal volume.

GPS app (ex. Google Maps) is started.

Music goes immediately quiet, about -5dB.

GPS app speaks, volume is still kept to -5dB.

Right after GPS app stops speaking, music volume goes quieter for about 2 seconds, it goes to about -10dB, then backs to -5dB.

Closing GPS app volume is not restored, it's still -5dB.

Skype doesn't work, it's impossible to launch it.

Sometimes, especially when there's no Internet connection, Torque speaks English words with local TTS, completely unreadble, I wrote in the Torque's community but got no answer, I'm trying to find a way to force Italian in its configuration files.

Sometimes, when device gets connected to the Internet, music starts playing from default player, I disabled auto-play in the car service settings, is this right?

Could you gently give me any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] TooBusy:
I installed TomTom from Google Play Store and it works fine; first time, every time. No modification necessary. With the same purchase, as allowed by TomTom, I installed it on my mobile, and I can install it on a few more devices using the same account. Free map updates are included. Money well spent.

It would cost me much more, in time spent and headaches, to search and download from suspicious websites, modify the system to get the hacked app working, and never be confident that the app will continue working reliably, or that the system modification will not negatively affect something else, or that the hacked app doesn't contain some malicious code. And then waste more time whenever I want to update maps, or even app.

dsa8310, your contribution in this Thread is appreciated, but it would be more useful to everyone, yourself included, if you use your knowledge and expertise to fix real problems and make improvements, rather than fix something that already works. Using illegal software is one thing, but promoting it on this Thread is quite another.

I guess, the first page should include something like: "TomTom works fine; no modification necessary". As I said above, promoting illegal software shouldn't be encouraged, but to put it on the first page... really?!

I'm not promoting the use of illegal software, nor do I believe [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION] is either. His suggestions apply to the paid version of Tomtom as well if you plan on storing the map files on the GPS sdcard, and not the internal headunit storage. The version of the apk one chooses to use is up to them and their conscience. We should definitely avoid discussing the location of any non-Play store apks though, otherwise the mods will bring down the ban hammer.

Hi all,

I just bought an Eonon GA5163 unit which is a Klyde unit. I noticed that the versions that I have is slightly newer than what has been posted. I'm wondering if these are significant enough to bother with. MCU 2.22 and build date 15 Jan 2015

I also did an install guide if anyone is interested on how to install this mazda 3 specific model

I'm planning on getting 4.4.4 onto my unit and probably look into the mic modifications as my internal one sucks at the moment. I've also noticed that the ipod app isn't 100% working. On my ipod nano, some playlists cause the app the fc and an ipod classic causes the app to fc on boot. Weird

Anyway I still got a lot of reading to do in this thread. I've only gone back 20 or so pages haha. Thanks for everyones hard work tinkering with these units!
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] ftsur:
I'm starting to think that my tuner is dead. I've tried all the settings for band and type on the factory settings. I've tried different firmware. I've tried different mcus. I tried a different fakra adapter (it's a VW). I tested the ant wire on the head unit and it gives off 12v when I turn on the radio app. It did work a few weeks ago, I was able to get fm stations. Now I get nothing When I scan or manually set the freq. I hooked my OEM unit up and the radio works fine. I tore down the head unit and followed the suggestions of others here, but there were no loose connections (none that were apparent). Still I added a drop of solder to the ground. Shipping this back to Hong Kong is not a cost effective idea. Anyone know a source for these tuners? I'm open to any suggestions.

What happens if you install the wrong resolution firmware? KGL
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] iletumi:
Was wondering of anyone has a fix for this odd issue when hitting the power button to turn off the unit. My JY unit is full touch with only softkeys, I noticed when I hit the power button it goes into some form of hibernate/sleep mode not true shutdown to save time when you get back into the car. All services meant to start at boot never do and require a full reboot to actually really start up not this sleep mode. I find myself having to open several apps to restart them every single time.

Is there a way to stop the services like car service among others to auto start with this sleep mode power off?
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Netconn:
Ok, but what happens? Does the screen go black, go crazy, show the icons way too small or too big? How would you know it's the wrong resolution?

BTW: My radio does the exact same thing as yours with the sleep shut down and apps having to be reset. If mine sits for a while it will fully shut down, if it's a short while it will go into a sleep more. I can't fully shut it off with the power button.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Boodro1:
I have a similar issue with mine. Try turning your key to off for a few seconds and see if the sound turns on. I believe it is my PAC canbus module not turning on my factory amplifier because I have a after marked sub and amp and that will be working just not the stock amp. I'm not sure if it's the PAC missing the trigger from the stereo to turn on or if the stereo is not sending the trigger every time. Mine is in an 03 Hummer H2.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] iletumi:
Well if you don't have a 1024* unit(which i believe you do) and go with a 800* img file I believe everything just gets wonky in sizes and dpi settings would be way off so might only see part of the screen as well.

---------- Post added at 03:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 AM ----------

Yeah mine shuts off on it's own after several minutes with the car off but still goes into sleep mode. After loading up the rom I PM'd you I just installed a root reboot widget. I can restart that way as it's much easier than pinhole resets every single time I turn the car on or opening up all my apps to restart the services.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] Boodro1:
Has anyone figured out a way to blank the screen for night time driving? I know some have a mute button that will do it but mine does not. I know there is also something that uses time zones or GPS to do it but it's not working 100%. It would be nice just to have an Icon on the home screen to do it and then just tap the screen to turn it back on.
[MTCB Android Head Units Q&A] iletumi:
I use a toggle widget from HD Widgets which I bought a long time ago. It has a "Night mode" toggle switch that does the job well enough.

To get it fully functional like your phone you will need a custom update.img w/root. Then Install Xposed Framework and the XposedMTC module for it. The Dimmer options in that module allow you to set dimming based on current date, timezone, and GPS location (no data connection required).

I know the seller listing says 1024 but the screen doesn't seem that sharp for that hi a resolution. That's why I was worried about installing the 1024 rooted 4.4.4. I haven't figured out how to get into the recovery yet, there's a little pinhole in front I think is the reset hole. It has no knobs, just buttons. KGL-7007. I was just going to put the image in the GPS slot and hope for the best. I'm not sure how long it has to sit before it actually shuts down completely. The rooted reset would be great to have.

I have the same exact unit for my Jetta bought from autopumpkin.com. The issue is when you hit the power button when leaving your car then once you start back up it doesn't work ey? It's an issue with how the unit doesn't actually shut down just sleeps/hibernates to avoid the longer boot times on an actual boot. I haven't found a fix for it yet(just posted about it a bit ago) but either opening up the Car Service app and starting it again or a full reset switch reboot will restart it all. (if you have start at boot enabled in car service)

I loaded up a custom rooted rom and installed a reboot widget which initiates an actual reboot bypassing the need to pinhole the reset switch every time for now.
