My experience from installing a backup camera in my last vehicle is that I needed to tap the reverse light myself. It was a pretty annoying job, I had to actually drill a hole through my vehicle chassis (from inside the trunk) to get to the reverse light. It also forced me to cut and splice the power wire going into the light, there was just no other way to avoid it. If you're lucky you might be able to tap from where the reverse light wire terminates in a loom somewhere, but that might be even harder to pull off. If you tap at the light, make sure you do a solid splice & heat shrink it.

Reverse cameras are a lot of work to install in a car that doesn't already have an existing one, unless you do a crappy wireless setup or are lucky to have a canbus connection.

Hi nixfu, pressng the back arrow does not do it, the radio still play.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
you just have to select a different source to do that, like the player for instance. if you want silence, just make sure to uncheck auto-play in the settings and unload the card or stick, whaterver, then put it back in for when you want it. i also have a huawei 3g, dunno exactly which one, can't remember, but it also sometime looses signal. plug it out and plug it back in. on the other hand, we have such a good provider here in the area that even my lg g3 looses signal sometimes...
[MTCB Android Head Units General] HenrikH29:
Yes but i think it's a little bit stupid having to switch to another sound source to stop the radio from playing. If i wan't to switch from radio to streaming music using the Tune In App i have to switch from radio to Player (USB), stop the Player music pressing pause (it's on Autoplay), close it, and start the Tune In app. Not smart, when an Off button on the radio screen would have done the job. Perhaps it will come in a future update:)
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
:D Exactly what I told them... but for now... I just use Jet Audio and a 32GB card...
[MTCB Android Head Units General] danylam:
I also have similar problems with steering wheel and radio staition losing memory. Havent found a solution yet. Red and yellow cables are correct. Maybe tape the black cable to chassi instead of negative
[MTCB Android Head Units General] sniktaw:
any happen to know the max USB drive supported? 64GB?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
You might want to consult a car electrician or electronist before doing that... I spared myself a headacke and just took mine to be installed in a service that works with these thingies for quite a few years... As for the steering wheel, don't have remotes on it, never felt the need, and phone... I rather use my mobile paired with an earpiece.. much more discrete that way. Just the other day I was in the parking lot of a supermarket and had the "pleasure" of hearing an entire conversation from a guy in a car using his phone paired with the dash unit... Good thing there were no children around... if you get my meaning...

Some say it will take up to 64. Some not. IMPORTANT is to have it formatted in FAT32. Personaly, I have a pill box stuffed with anything from 8 to 32GB micro-sds and more than happy with how much music I can get on a 32. Guess USB is no different since I think it's actualy some kind of hub that shares the USB and the microSD.

External mic. fix

I'm a little confused about the external mic. fix. from reading about it in different threads.

I have a CarJoying RK3188 1024*800 16GB Android Ford Mondeo unit and have the very bad sound using it for phone calls. I understand that the bad sound has to do with the 2 mics. being coupled parallel.

Will it be enough to cut the wires to the internal mic. (i have no use for it) or do i also have to solder the wires from the external mic to the BT board?

Will be getting a better external mic too. Probably a Parrot.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
Before cutting why not try obstructing with a small piece of rubber?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] flydeep:
I have a 1 TB portable usb drive connected which has about 600 GB of music. I scanned initially with Poweramp and disabled automatic music scan after it was initially set up. The drive gets spooled up after about 1.5 mins of ignition on. Works well so far.. about 2 months into regular use. I am not providing external power source, just feeding it off directly from one usb out. I guess it may be more stable if it has a dedicated external power.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] HenrikH29:
The noise is electric noise probably from bad wiring or internal in the unit so covering the mic. wont remove that noise.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] sniktaw:
great, thanks flydeep :D
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
That's bad... Then some tinkering is probably required...
[MTCB Android Head Units General] asdrewq:
The microphone feedback noise is probably the same issue as is found in other android head units (search XDA). In essence, the internal mic & the external are joined in parallel to the Bluetooth module, & the front microphone circuit track is located unshielded on the main board, thus picking up loads of interference from the rest of the hardware.

The solution is to remove the inbuilt microphone completely & use a high quality external mic. I don't know if this affects Google voice control, but if you only use the mic for hands free phonecalls its not an issue.

I have one of these units on the way, will hopefully be here in a couple of days. I've been waiting a while for an android head unit which fits my criteria (physical volume knob, good screen, snappy performance on Android 4.4+, good manufacturer support & hopefully not many bugs) & am hoping this will be it!

---------- Post added at 05:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

Forgot to add - does anyone know the maximum size microsd card supported in the front media slot? I only have a 64gb spare & am unsure if this unit will recognise it.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] 2safe4you:
The guys from Carjoying say to in a eMail for some weeks:

SD-CARD will be supportet to 64GB
[MTCB Android Head Units General] sniktaw:
Thanks!

[MTCB Android Head Units General] nixfu:
64GB Micro SD cards are supported IF AND ONLY IF you re-format them to FAT32, which Windows can't do anymore. These systems do not support the newer and poorly implemented by Microsoft xFAT format. Search how to do it. There are utilities that can do it or you can do it on a Mac or Linux system.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] sniktaw:
as for USB drive Carjoying's overnight email says: The Maximum USB drive size support 500GB, but other Joying customers feedback us it can support 1TB.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Sasha0574:
Good news... :good:
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Hisma:
took the plunge. Bought on amazon as a prime eligible item (FBA). $269 shipped. Should have it at my door within 3-4 days.

I notice this is now $309 direct from car joying, which requires shipping from china (which likely isn't free).

Word of advice (if US-based) -

Anyone buying the iso model, go to crutchfield, choose your car make and model, and select a random double-din head unit. It will automatically suggest which accessories to buy specifically for your car. So it will choose the correct dash kit, harness, and other accessories for your car. This way you can get all the right pieces to fit the universal unit into your specific vehicle.

WiFi tethering from phone.

I am looking at the JY-UQ128 unit support states the unit will WiFi tether from my Samsung Note 4. I just want to ask if anyone else here with Joying unit not necessarily this unit but has a Note 4 and has gotten WiFi tethering to work. The last unit I tried, a Yinuo unit, would USB tether, it would connect to Bluetooth, but it would not see the phone's WiFi it would however see my home and neighbor's WiFi just not the phone's WiFi.

Thank you for your time,

Robert

I have a RK3188 from Joying and tether WiFi from CM12.1 and TouchWiz daily on my Note 4.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] asdrewq:
I now have this installed.

Does anyone else have issues with connecting via Bluetooth to their phone? It says it's paired to my galaxy s3 ok, but in the Bluetooth app, the 4 higher icons on the left hand of the screen are greyed out (I think these are the dialling/music streaming icons). Basically I can't do anything.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] HenrikH29:
[/COLOR]There is a new update file for the Joying RK3188 1024 x 600 quad core unit. The former archive were corrupted and dated in august though it was supposed to be an October update. http://www.carjoying.com/Joying-blog/12.html

The new one is dated 14th October 2015. However when you unrar it (it's a .rar) both files in the archive is dated in august ! So is it really an update, i don't now.

I haven't tried installing it however Rambo has sugested to another user that the bad sound issue using the Bluetooth Phone would be fixed in an update.

There no description of what the update fixes anywhere.

Anyone installed the update? And does it reset all settings (like the august update)?

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:27 PM ----------

Which version is your firmware. There is 2 updates on http://www.carjoying.com/Joying-blog/12.html stating to fix Blueethoth issues.

I had to try at couple of times with my iPhone 6S before it pairred. But once it's paired, it stays paired.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] asdrewq:
Thanks, it did get connected ok in the end. When streaming music via Bluetooth there is no song information displayed on the screen, hopefully it will be resolved in a later update.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] HenrikH29:
Just to update min previous posting.

Found out how to turn the radio of. As suggested by another in the thread it was the "return" button in the upper right corner. Think i tried it with no success before i posted but never mind it works:D

Steering wheel control is still messed up - right button on the steering wheel is "next" in stead of "previous" etc. (LHD car - Denmark).:confused:

The unit has not lost the radio station for some days now. Haven't altered the powerwires, they were right in the first place.:)

3G connection is more stable now. If it's lost, i take the USB Dongle out and in, and it's fixes. Annoying work around but works.:)

Sound using Bluetooth for phone calls still bad. Will do the mic fix if nothing else turns op, hoping the mic fix will do the trick:mad:

Otherwise great unit - love it.

Try an amplifier. Stock antenna is made to work with stock radio, these units however have a poorer reception. And since RDS signal comes joined with radio... might improve that aswell... dunno, don't listen to radio here...

[MTCB Android Head Units General] SilverS4sAreFaster:
Do you guys think it would work if I opened up one of these and angled the chipset inside to around 45* that I could mount it in a very shallow spot of my dash? I have a 97 BMW 328is and there is a glasses holder and OBC that are in a double DIN configuration but the mounting depth is around 4-5". It would be so helpful to have an onboard Android device in it though. I am planning to use it as a gauge display with Megasquirt on a turbo setup.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sardonik:
Perhaps hastily, I recently took advantage of a $415 Groupon for a refurb P905. The tablet is still in transit from Brooklyn.

Reading about screen flicker issues related to the battery connection, I'm wondering if I should just ship the tablet right back when it arrives. I've got 7 days to return the unit and only a 30 day manufacturer's warranty. Sounds like a very good chance I could start to see this problem, possibly within a few months after my warranty has expired. At that point, I'd either have to live with it or try repairing the battery connector on my own (having someone experienced do the soldering).

I'm just trying to figure out what my chances are of getting a lemon. If Samsung isn't properly addressing the battery connector during refurbishment, I'd have to think my chances of seeing this problem are pretty good. Am I being overly pessimistic here? I've wanted to buy this unit for a long time, but I don't want to throw money away.

Hello everyone.....I have rooted Xperia E ss.

I was freezing some apps using Link2SD..... I froze almost all apps.

It's not reading memory cards nor internal storage.

Can't connect using usb also.

It gives two errors "unfortunately, com.sonyericsson.usbux has stopped" and " unfortunately, the process.android.media has stopped" when usb is connected.

So many features like in setting when we oprn apps or theatring and hotspot setting stoops working.

I have tried reflashing it but it also didn't work.

Selfishly, I cant deal with any more complaints about the AOSP camera not working for the M9 or stupid posts cluttering the Cyanognemod 12.1 dev thread. So...Ive decided to start a bounty thread for development of a functional camera for our beloved M9 for AOSP/CM12.1 ROMS.

I am looking for all features functioning as they do with stock sense, including:

The ability to take and save pictures with rear and front facing cameras

The ability to take and save videos with rear and front facing cameras

The ability to also port and use the Sense camera with this driver hack on AOSP ROMs

Post your pledges in this thread and ill add to this post with your XDA user name and your pledge. If and when the AOSP camera is fixed, the bounty will go to the dev that fixes it. Pledges are made in USD and should be sent by Paypal or other means accepted by the dev.

If you pledge and don't pay, an android goblin will sneak into your home while you sleep and brick your M9 and you will be banned from XDA for all eternity.

Candy rom camera or cm camera both have fix to disable face detection. Problem happen with apps like google camera. As for front camera, it's ranom for me right now. Face will make it crash for sure. However, i can now usually (not all the time), take one picture. The second one will cause the kernel to panic. I think it's in the way the actuator is closed in the kernel (not removed correctly therefore there is problem when calling it again) however i am not sure.
