did anyone had the balls to place an order? :D http://www.aliexpress.com/item/News...ch-for-univeral-Android-only/32279988317.html

i wrote them wrote them two messages and they were replying but i am still not sure if i should do it.

Assuming it has enough power then someone mentioned to check it doesn't have spaces in the disk name.

Looking at the bottom of the listing then some people have bought them. The description is full of contradictions and clearly been cut and pasted from elsewhere. I wonder how good the ae buyer protection is.
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
Too good to be true if you ask me. The price is just too low. The parts themselves add up to more than $68. Look at the other clues. Seller just registered on Jan 29 and look at his made up name.

IMHO, either it's a scam or they're stolen. Keep in mind those 7 orders are because of the buyer protection plan. So if you want to risk it and go through the possibility of getting a fake tracking number and then the whole protection plan process, go for it.
[Android Head-Units] bockywocky:
Not tested with a pen drive USB, I have a harddrive

I did a full auto-search after connecting. Power is not the problem and yes I can see the disk from others apps like the video player.

So it must be inside Poweramp. I have to check if there is a space in the disk name, I will check this this evening when home.

No one test it with an external harddrive?

Thanks for the tips guys.

Hey guys.

I'm considering ordering the 8" screen version, NU5002S. Just wanted to know if it has a physical button to turn the unit/screen on and off?
[Android Head-Units] HATEMBS:
HI, frankly the price is quite low and it smells scam, full nose, I advise you not to buy from that site.
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
I too was able to add a boot image, add a custom boot animation, add ViperAndroid as a system app, a whole lot of user apps, and rebuild the image successfully using Renedis Debloated 1.1.3 update.img and Firmware Factory Tool. My image went from 700MBs to about 650MBs. No doubt because of modifications I made. I was just wondering if the size/modified image have any impact on the upgrade process? Could I possibly brick my unit?
[Android Head-Units] Zaphod-Beeblebrox:
There are no buttons on the headunit. The Android box of course has a power button. Mine comes on/off automatically with ignition.

Although I do have a frequent issue of when power has been off for a short time (less than the 2 hour full shutdown) and restart the truck, the screen remains black. I tap the screen a few times and it'll eventually come back on. Haven't been able to find a consistent pattern that causes this yet.

I'm on MCU 31 and Renedis 1.1.3
[Android Head-Units] welshblob:
Well I was nervous when I upgraded mine but it still works. I would hope that the FFT would error if there were any issues with the modifications made before it created the image.

Also an interesting point to note is that using the FFT the boot logo is replaced in the recovery image as well where as Renedis' is just in the live one (reverts back to newsmy logo when upgrading)

Thanks jpap i actually bought the same padtv tuner from your earlier post and got it yesterday. But i havent got it to work because it is not detected by the padtv hd ap when i plug it through the mini to microusb adapter.

I suspect the miniusb side of the adapter needed to be soldered for OTG so i tried to ground pin 4 but I screwed it up and have no adapter to do more troubleshooting.

Hope you found a way to get it to work jpap. I will have to wait awhile to receive another adapter from china to test if OTG adapter will make it work.
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
I was given an updated PadTV HD 2.1.5.1 from Geniatech support that currently isn't available on the PlayStore or the Geniatech support download page. I remember when I first tried the TV tuner on my phone it also gave me a "No Device" message. I just unplugged and plugged it back in, waited a minute, and the app found the device. My unit arrives tomorrow, so I plan on testing the OTG port with the Mini Male USB to micro Female USB adapter and if that doesn't work, try with a Male USB to Female Micro USB adapter on the host USB port of the android box.
[Android Head-Units] kwalsh24:
I rolled back to v31 and the screen issue hasn't come back so far, when I was on v33 a hard boot didn't fix the issue, seemed like it needed time or to warm up to actually have the screen stay on.

Bluetooth player tho, still hit and miss, ill have audio for 5-10 seconds then dead air, have to keep cycling the Bluetooth link on and off a half dozen times to have a good lasting connection.

Going to try a fresh flash and see what happens, as so far I've only been doing the upgrade process via SD card, so ita just been updating the stock rom, likely wont fix things but worth trying
[Android Head-Units] Khael:
hello guys :)

on this week should arrive mine unit! (nu5261+bt obd+32gb sd+usb mic).

As suggested on the wiki, i order the "Super Mini USB 2.0 Microphone MIC".

But i have 2 question:

1) where did u place the usb mic?

2) is possibile to use "ok google" with an app like open mix+?

thanks in advance

Khael
[Android Head-Units] blinger:
I got the tuner to work now. It needs a OTG miniusb to female microusb adapter. I tried to ground pin 4 in the male miniusb plug (for OTG) but I damaged it beyond repair. Managed to salvage the adapter by replacing the damaged miniusb plug with a male USB and plug it to miniusb OTG cable that came with the newsmy headunit.

Thanks for the updated PadTV apk
[Android Head-Units] chrisstreme:
1) USB mic should be placed as close as possible to your head : behind the roof, close to rear-view mirror is quite easy. You can place your alim thread along the wind screen and make it invisible!

2) Not tried (didnt received my mic), but I'll take it exactly for that...
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
Does anyone think that this USB mic adapter will work? I might just buy it and test it out. It's only $1.
[Android Head-Units] Khael:
Thanks for your answer.

in fact i'd like to buy a 3mt usb cable and place the mic on the roof, but i don't think that is a good idea (or anyway isn't easy use a 3mt usb cable for plug dimension!)

Maybe NO!

This adapter will work as an audio card; the carpad audio will be disabled and works only trough the 3,5" jack on the usb adapter.

So don't buy it!
[Android Head-Units] typos1:
Lol, I dont want it for driving, it will be nice to watch it parked up occasionally, what I mainly want it for it radio - in the US you have Satellite radio, in the UK we have DAB (digital) radio, but its an old format thats been replaced with DAB+ in the rest of Europe and the UK government squeezes in so many stations that the audio quality is far worse than FM (about the same bit rate as the lowest quality MP3), but most stations are also broadcast on the digital TV network as well so a DVB-T tuner gives access to these stations digitally broadcast at a higher bit rate.

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

If thats the cheap one then yes, your link says "page not found" when I click on it, which doesnt sound good, the order has been shipped, apparently, but got tracking number for TNT and it says "not found", but it does say it takes 3-5 days to update on Aliexpress, so not sure if its a scam or not yet. Was also watching some similarly cheaply priced HuiFei units from another seller, they also say "page not found" as of this morning, maybe Aliexpress has cottoned on to them.

---------- Post added at 12:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

I bought a Pipo tablet from Aliepxress at the end of last year, when it came the screen was smashed, it was not the sellers fault, it was DHL's but the seller wanted me to send it back at my expense, they said they didnt want to claim with DHL as DHL China do not pay out, apparently. Obviously I wasnt gonna pay for shipping when it wasnt my fault it was broken. I opened a dispute with Aliepxress and they offered me a 50% refund and to keep the item (this is common on Aliexpress). For some problems this is a good solution, but NOT when the screen is smashed as a result of DHL's carelessness. Eventually the seller agreed to pay return postage but weeks had passed and it was a present for someone, so I got it for only slightly more from someone in the UK and claimed on my credit card. Aliexpress went ahead and refunded me 50% anyway, so my credit card will refund the remaining 50%. Incidentally the tablet was an RK3288 based device (quad core 1.8Ghz, 2Gb RAM, 10" screen) it only cost 155GBP, was very, very impressed with it.

Can somebody please help me out how to connect the SWC (steering wheel control) for my 2010 Toyota Prius III ?

I am completely lost on this topic :(

There is SWC 1 and SWC2 as a wire coming from the HU, but I really have no idea where to connect them :(

Thank YOu!!!!

Do a thread search - one of the posters who has been on this thread since the beginning has a Prius and has spoken about this before.
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
So you were able to get the TV tuner to work :). Glad to hear.

My unit just arrived and everything works except the TV tuner. I keep on getting the No Device message when I open up the PadTV HD app. I assume either the Male MiniUSB to female MicroUSB adapter is defective, I need to update to 1.1.3 because the unit arrived with 1.1.2 , or it mind be a problem with the app.

Can you tell me,

1. What firmware version are you using?

2. What PadTV HD app version are you using?
[Android Head-Units] blinger:
im using version 1.1.3 and mcu v33

i am using your latest padtv hd version and it also worked with the version available on the geniatech website.

You actually need to convert your male miniusb to female microusb adapter to OTG for it to work. That involves cutting open the male miniusb plug and soldering pin 4(sense) to pin 5(ground-black wire).

If the newsmy android box had a microusb port instead of the miniusb port then you can plug the tuner directly to the box and have no issues.

google image of what i mean:
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
Thanks. I just did it and will test it out. I assume that if it doesn't work it won't fry the miniUSB port on the Android box or fry the TV tuner? You mentioned something that you thought that you fried your adapter, but ended up the cable, right?
[Android Head-Units] blinger:
Nah I didnt fry anything. I just damaged the miniusb pins when soldering.

Serial Config

Hi,

was following the thread (till now I was reaching page 135), looks like a real good community is growing :D

I bought the NU5002S-H for my Jeep GC in Spain.

Was playing a bit with it while connected to a power supply and I'm real satisfied till now. Gonna install the HU this weekend in the vehicle.

I'm corious how it's working with the CAN bus harness, cause I'm a CAN maniac :cyclops:

The manual is like all from China, what you want to know is not inside :eek:

So may somebody can explain me what is to configure in the MCU with "Serial Config" (OBD/CAN/Non)?

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] bockywocky:
And don't forget to aks her to fix the tomtom "Waiting for GPS signal" error :)

It strikes me that only a few people complaining about not working TomTom.

In Europe it is the most used navigation software.

But.. hey guys what Navi are you using on the nu3001?
[Android Head-Units] c5vette211:
I am trying to get some info. I just got in my NU3001-01-H and starting the process to put a new ROM on. I see on the wiki a few options for ROM's. Wondering if you can run clockwork recovery on this and or if there is anyone that has done a dual boot on this unit? I want to have the option to switch to windows to run a certain program that only will run in windows. I was thinking of using the SD card as host for the windows OS. I saw a thread a wile back about the clockwork but it was never really answered. It says "it is in the wiki (not yet)"
[Android Head-Units] jpapadami:
I just pinged her on FB with the list again. If the TomTom issue is on the list then she should be aware that there is a problem, just need to see what problems they plan on addressing and which ones they won't, so let's see what she has to say.

I use iGO with ANS Navigator. Love it and maps are constantly updated pretty much every 1-2 quarters.
[Android Head-Units] zanix:
The wiki says there is currently no custom recovery...yet. Know anyone that can port CWM or TWRP over?

This device like most Android devices uses an ARM processor, so your standard Windows OS will not run.

---------- Post added at 09:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:31 AM ----------

I don't think anyone in there has taken a good look at using the CAN features yet. As far as I know the VW custom version has a few pre-installed apps that react to CAN events.
[Android Head-Units] c5vette211:
I plan on running WINCE.

In regards to the CAN question, I have a class 2 CAN BUS and my features are run through a harness instead of the stereo unit.

Checking the order

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Something funny:

Right now I was inspecting my NU5002S-H which I was ordering in Spain (in this time I didn't know who's the manufacturer).

First I was ordering the 7", later I saw theres a 8" aviable, so they offered me to send it back and swap it to the 8".

Actually great support. Really! And the price dropped now as well, what is normal after I ordered :laugh:

But when I was updating to the newest ROM (from 1.1.2 -> 1.1.3) and MCU (from 32 -> 33) I noticed that I just have 1GB :eek:

This is the fault of Newsmy, cause they added the wrong Android Box to the package....

So I sent a mail to spain and I'm waitin eagerly, cause there on hollydays till the 25th, cholera :rolleyes:

Just FYI: On the reseller version (spanish version) is "Android" in red on the Android box and the bootlogo is/was differnet.

---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------

I don't know if I understand you completely, but if the radio is connected to the Low-Speed-CAN (f.e. K-CAN, comfort-CAN, CAN-B) you need something like this for steering wheel and radio: RP4-CH11 or just radio: C2R-CHY4 for your marque/model.

This interfaces are "reading" the messages and "putting" them to wires.

Means f.e., regarding ACC, the interface is listening on the CAN and if the message with the corresponding object identifier appers it puts 12V on the PACs harness ACC wire.
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
They have it advertised everywhere that it will get updated to Lollipop. Hopefully sooner rather than later, because thise is PURE android, no themes or skin maybe some mods, but I hope 2 weeks after Google release source code? or maybe they are waiting for CM to release their code? lol

Wait so our unit does come with 2GB of ram? NICE!!!!! I knew their listings have a whole bunch of errors.
[Android Head-Units] red13dotnet:
Read that again, There is 1 8GB Nand Flash and there are (4) 2GB SDRAM Chips... something weird is going on here cause that just doesn't add up correctly. Would be 8GG flash and 8GB SDRAM.. I'd love to believe it's christmas but somehow I doubt it. The SDRAM chips are listed as 2GB (8 banks of 256MB) If only one bank were active on each that would give us 1GB total.

No other memory on board unless I'm frakkin' blind.
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
LOL. Further investigation, we do only have 1GB...

Look at this link, toward the bottom of the page our ram module number is H5TQ2G83EFR which is 256 x 4 = 1GB

I have been following this thread closely. Very keen on this unit. I have a AN21-U at the moment. With that, both the radio and stock mp3 player load on boot depending on what was used last. I have read the radio does on this one. Does anyone know if we can use tasker to load a music app like Poweramp etc on boot, with a rule checking if the radio has started or not? Hope that made sense!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this unit doesn't have a dedicated radio, it has an android radio, so I dont think you will need what you are looking for.

Sorry for the bad picture, but now this HU is in a car and I am not planning to remove it for better snapshots...
[Android Head-Units] easyguy:
That is a lot of wasted space in that HU. Unless the amp is the part that you took out.

With that kind of space -- they could have put some serious amps in there. I'll probably end up with mice living in mine.

HU details

This morning, I opened again the HU and took some pictures...

The tuner chip seems to be a SI4755

so RDS should be possible...

There is an audio codec wolfson 8988

so equalizer should be possible...

The MCU (or maybe only the CAN part) is managed by a STM32F103VC

To drive the display, there is an Intersil TW8834

There are some other chips ( probably red13dotnet will come back with more infos after seeing pictures)...
[Android Head-Units] red13dotnet:
I opened mine up late last night but your pics turned out much clearer than the ones I got, thank you! :highfive:

What I'm most excited about is the wm8988l. It appears to be capable of supporting a microphone.

Some of you all must be engineers I'm guessing? For you to crack open the unit and identity chips, etc... I'm impressed.

So we have confirmation that it's rooted out of the box. What about an unlocked boot loader? Because I'm thinking a custom Car specific ROM on this would do wonders. I know there are a few out there for people using Nexus 7 in the cars....

It is based on version 1.1.2

[Android Head-Units] zanix:
I haven't the slightest idea on how to get WinCE running on the NU3001 or if you even can. I am curious what app you still need for WinCE, perhaps there is an Android replacement?

As for the CAN, the NU3001 has wires for it but as far as we know, it doesn't have the decoder so they are pretty much useless. The NU5002 and the VW version seem to have CAN decoders. The device you links looks like it restores functionality that a generic "aftermarket" radio requires so it should work just fine with the NU3001.
[Android Head-Units] janla:
Hello,

It's my first post here.

I am considering NU5261S to my Skoda Octavia FL 2010.

I've briefly walked through the whole thread and here are open questions for me now:

1.

[MENTION=349778]renedis[/MENTION], did you try to extract and port some apps from the firmware of WinlinkOwnice HU? There is dynamic thread/development on it here:

http://xdaforums.com/android/general/winlink-ownice-android-head-unit-4-4-2-t2899282

it looks it is very simmilar hardware platform and apps looks better in some cases.

2. How do you guys feed the unit with internet if not phone tether? What models of 3G/4G modems dongles are confirmed to be working with your HU?

3. How annoying is booting time (~30sec from ignition). I'm considering kind of a powewrbank as a solution to keep Android always on, but the question is whether Adnrroid shuts down anyway after 2h standby, despite side powering?
