Update from Joying

So I've been going back and forth with Joying for the past few days.... My first question was about the their new hardware and updated os. They told me the new hardware was coming out any day but to give me the model of my car, etc. to guarantee fit. Then they sent me links to their current models that would work for my car. I got the hint that their new hardware was a ways off and purchased a unit off of amazon. After I let Joying know I ordered a unit, they sent me this email....

Hi D,

Thanks for your E-mail.

Thank you for your order and support!

Yes, we are testing Android 5.1 head unit this period of time. It's not available now.

When it's available and can update, we will help you!

About a new model with an octacore processor and 2gb or ram, sorry I really don't know when will be available.

Thank you for your attention!

Any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

Have a nice day and happy new year!

Best Regards,

Joy

My plan was to wait for their new hardware to come out, but that seems like a ways off. I'm still pretty pumped about ordering the quad core rk3188 version anyways but i figured I should share what I have learned here

Thanks for sharing!
[Android Head-Units] Abacus060:
Not a problem. Got my unit in the mail today. Going to install tomorrow and will follow up with the results!
[Android Head-Units] Abacus060:
Got it!

Got it installed yesterday. Boots up quick, sounds great and very responsive. I have it hooked up to my OBDII sensor and a backup camera, all works as advertised. Bluetooth and Wi-fi tethered to my phone and works flawlessly so far. For $250, you really cant do any better.

Only issue is that it is not a true double-din size - Had to do some serious modification to my aftermarket trim kit. Not the prettiest, but it works.
[Android Head-Units] Dbeayon:
This is the same unit I have in my Prius C. Height fit was good for my Dash kit. However width was a bit wider. Luckily it did not take to much work to get it trimmed to size. If you haven't already, root and install Viper 4 Android from the play store.
[Android Head-Units] alvinjones377:
I have bought an universal 10" double din unit http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0194FZPGU

Compared with Joying's, this Pumpkin HU can support adjustable angle of its screen and DVD/CD player, has exceeding my expectations.

Anyone out there wanting an Android headunit would recommend this as the one to go for .
[Android Head-Units] Abacus060:
thank you so much for that... sounds a lot better. Any idea how to remap the hardware buttons? I've installed xposed but haven't found the right module. I would like to map the GPS button to google maps
[Android Head-Units] Dbeayon:
At one point I did have Google maps mapped to the GPS button, I just don't remember how I did it. Right now I have the Google Now Launcher installed and when I want to use iGo I hit the GPS button. If I want to use google maps, I just say "OK Google" and "Navigate home" Works like a charm.
[Android Head-Units] Abacus060:
Do you prefer iGo or Sygic? I'm also having a problem with my bluetooth phonecalls echoing for the people on the other line. I noticed there is a firmware update - I guess Ill start with that.
[Android Head-Units] Dbeayon:
I like iGo. My Bluetooth phone call quality is atrocious. It's pretty much unusable. I just switch to speaker or the person on the other end just puts up with it. Let me know if the firmware update works.
[Android Head-Units] Abacus060:
booooo that sucks! I mean I'm a little relieved it's not just me, but wtf. I just got everything set up, a little hesitant to wipe the whole thing for an update that came out only a week after the firmware I'm running. Maybe I'll install the firmware this weekend if I get bored.

Have you tried any custom roms? I actually really don't mind the Joying launcher and rom - It does everything I need it to and more (besides make decent bluetooth calls)
[Android Head-Units] Dbeayon:
I've been using Malaysk's ROM for a while now. Going to install the latest one dated 1/10/16 withing the next few days.

That's interesting. Sticks out quite a ways. Similar in many ways. My Joying 10" unit has a black bezel.

I could see that pivot and some distance working for some application like trucks and vans or where you need to clear buttons, dash and air etc. I like the idea. I think a ball pivot that would allow pivoting toward the driver would be an advantage.

I don't think many people really need DVD/CD support these days, but that is certainly an advantage for some.

Thanks for sharing.

Looks like a paid advertisement. I'm hugely offended you would quote me to post this garbage. Its not even on topic.

Any issues with 10 inch Joying unit ?

I am looking to pick up this model : http://www.amazon.com/Android-Navigation-Special-Experience-Install/dp/B01A193GQY/ref=sr_1_1?s=car&ie=UTF8&qid=1455050827&sr=1-1&keywords=joying+10.1

Anyone know if its supported by Malaysk's ROM ? Any downisdes to the larger unit in terms of rooting or getting the ROM on it ? Would love some feedback if anyone has one.
[Android Head-Units] Geekybiker:
Same resolution and soc. Assume it would work. That seems to be all that matters.
[Android Head-Units] pounce:
The one downside I experienced is the sd card slot location. These units do not have an eternal card slot and only have one slot internally. I worked around this by purchasing a card extender and routing it to the front of the unit behind the screen. I can now pop the screen out of the friction fittings and change the card. I don't have the pull the entire unit. If one wanted they could probably mount an extender to bring the card to a place where you could get at it without having to pull the screen out.

I'm not sure why they didn't just put a card slot on the screen bit...other than cost. Would be awesome to get the card slot on the edge of the screen (which is really just like a tablet) and also a USB or two on the bottom edge. Perhaps on the next rev.
[Android Head-Units] naruto.ninjakid:
Thanks

Thanks for this detailed post. I was comparing them. It does seem the larger model lacks some things the smaller one does. This is probably because its revision one. I may just go with the 7 inch model then. It has 2 SD card slots. I was also looking to put it into a 2008 Honda pilot and it probably wouldn't have had enough space due too the column shifter. I wanted to make it fit lol.
[Android Head-Units] pounce:
I think you would be fine there. Just depends if you think you are going to get more value out of the larger screen. It is much larger. For my wife it makes the backup camera image that much more useful. For me it was about safety and lowering stress to have the big screen. I also bought the unit thinking I'd get one of those 360 camera systems that make it look like you have a view from above the car. The big screen would be amazing for that application.

I need a bigger screen to see things. If you are young and just want some basic conveniences of android etc the smaller models are nice. I personally like physical buttons and knobs for volume (I have one of the 7" models also) and I had to give that up for the big screen.

I like your floor mats ;) A lot like mine after a long week.

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
I haven't done a factory reset yet but I would love to avoid it if possible.

I went to take a picture of the wife's newly decorated Christmas tree and the stock camera fails to fully start. It behaves as if it can not use the hardware. When I look at the back there is a small red light/laser that refuses to go out unless the phone is rebooted.

I've rebooted the phone a few times and tried Manual Camera and a couple others .. same behavior.

The phone is running 6.0.1 and is rooted.

Anyone seeing this and have any ideas?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SuperSmashedBro:
Are you using the stock kernel
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fury683:
I am having the same problem. I flashed with the factory image and the camera won't work in any apps. Stock camera, Snapchat, Instagram, etc. Flashlight had not been working from the Quick Settings tiles, but it did work after wiping cache and dalvik in TWRP.

I saw someone mention on reddit that it can be an issue with using NRT to flash (I didn't use it) and something about vendor.img. I reflashed vendor.img and it didn't change anything.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
Yep. With the exception of being rooted and using a few utils like root explorer and recently ... nothing special. I did just notice Google Play Services *****ed and said there was an error but it wasn't specific about the error. I did bounce the cache for Google Play Services after seeing that.

Nothing odd about this phone ... it's been top notch for the last month.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
I wonder if it's the vendor.img that caused this. Hmm.. I wonder if the vendor.img from 6.0 would sort it. hmm.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fury683:
I am trying a reflash of the factory image again. Will try out the camera upon first boot before proceeding with TWRP/root/Xposed. It's optimizing my apps right now, I'll let you know in a minute.

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 PM ----------

Full reflash (without wiping userdata) with factory image seems to have worked... Now to try proceeding one step at a time with TWRP/root/Xposed to see if it breaks again.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
Yeah, I tried flashing the 6.0 vendor.img and Manual Camera started and I got visual but it froze. I did get a complaint that something was wrong with my system. So I'm trying the 6.0.1 vendor.img. Let me know what you find.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkamikaze:
I had this issue on 6.0 when I was trying to do systemless root. I was given boot.img options that were modified (L, M and N) L didn't allow root, N borked the camera, M worked. I would think it's the boot.img
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
No dice. Reflashing the 6.0.1 vendor.img did squat. I'll wait.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
So reflashing the system.img and waiting for Chainfire to make a new boot image could be the solution. That kinda sucks but it could be the only solution. :(
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fury683:
I am using the "traditional" root method and used the angler-mdb08k-boot.zip by Chainfire, which is what I have used before.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
Same here. Using the same root method each time with my Nexus 6 was never an issue.

Damn. hmm.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] edd247:
Using a 6.0 boot.img or kernel will break the camera on 6.0.1. You can use the new supersu 2.61 on the new 6.0.1 update and root works fine and so does the camera
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
Oh. So just flash supersu 2.61 instead of using the boot.img and supersu 2.5x method. Good. I'll give that a whirl.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fury683:
I just used the 2.61 systemless root and it appears to be working OK. I just flashed Xposed and am rebooting (optimizing apps for the 3rd time tonight...). Process is pretty painless.

Flash factory image (my batch file was modified to NOT wipe userdata (-w removed))

Flash TWRP

Install SuperSU 2.61 from TWRP --- DO NOT INSTALL ROOT FROM TWRP IF/WHEN IT ASKS

---------- Post added at 09:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 PM ----------

Xposed installed and it all seems to work OK.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
I just erased and reflashed each partition except userdata so it's doing it's thing. Once it's back up then I'll just use 2.61 and be done with it. :)

Thanks. Just hope I don't have to look at the boot animation much longer ... :)
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] captainwahid:
Anyone try the modified MMB29N boot.img thats on the Unlock/Root/Flash Guide to see if it breaks the camera while rooting traditionally?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
I did this ...

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase boot

fastboot erase vendor

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash cache cache.img

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

fastboot reboot

Seems to be stuck at the bootloader animation ... so far .. 20 minutes? I shouldn't have to wipe userdata .. right?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aergern:
I used the only Angler boot.img in the list and it worked to root but the camera was screwed.

[XDA Assist] aquelebusa:
OK, fellas

I've lurked XDA for a while now and it's solved many of my doubts. Today, however, I finally decided to create an account and ask for something I haven't seen solved around the web. You probably heard about Android 6.0.1 with the new emoji – my query is somewhat related: I had a Nexus 5 until not so long ago and I noticed how some emoji wouldn't display correctly, appearing only as the "raw" Unicode character instead of Google's custom design. I dismissed the problem as some sort of mistake I may have comitted while flashing a factory image or something, although it'd never be corrected as I continuosly updated to the most recent OS version available. I even took this issue up to the Google Product forums to no avail. Finally, I traded the Nexus for a Moto Maxx XT1225 (for other reasons than this) and, to my surprise, the problem is on this new device too! I haven't meddled with it yet (rooting, etc.) and it came out of the box with Android 5.0.2 – below, a screenshot showing the characters that are not displaying correctly (unless it isn't there; in which case, I failed to attach the image)

[IMG="Screenshot"]https://goo.gl/cpRlTn[/IMG]

Does anyone have any idea of what it could be? It's a minor issue, but it sure has been bugging me... :confused:

I figure downloading an intact font file and replacing the one on my phone would do the trick, but I'd prefer a solution that didn't require rooting, if possible.

Thanks for any help! :good:

I have a D800 I'm working on for someone. They did a real number on it. It was semi-functional, but would randomly lose all screen function and had no service. Also had a persistent "ERROR" right above the home keys.

I performed a TOT reset to 20c, and everything seemed fine. I verified functionality and downloaded some apps using my google account, so once everything was fine I performed a standard Factory Reset via Volume - + Home/Home. Now, all hell has broken loose. It retained download mode - for a while - and I was able to flash all 3 available TOT's with semi-success. OS was bootable, sometimes, other times it was pure bootloop. Factory resets performed before and after TOT flashes. Confirmed MD5's, correct TOT+DLL combinations, etc etc. The phone is just pissed. Currently, the IMEI is now gone, but I know it. I wrote it down prior to doing anything the moment I got it. It also matches the IMEI on the inside of the back cover. I have confirmed this is not a frankenstien refurb - D800 on rear of mainboard / all panels / battery ribbon cables / etc. I lost download mode at one point, had fastboot. Couldn't get fastboot mode to work with my pc to repair it, so I manually put the phone into QHUSB 9008 mode, then 9006, then repaired fastboot so Download mode would work. Back to step one....Bootloops, hard freezes, random reboots, "ERROR" during RANDOM boots sometimes no ERROR, etc etc.... Something somewhere is just not meshing. I thought MAYBE the lack of an IMEI might be throwing the OS for a loop, so I tried the qualcomm and EFS Professional programs with no luck. The phone throws an error when trying to backup the memory, as well as write the HEX IMEI. I've tried various ports. Drivers are all current, and I've tried every available version of drivers I've been able to locate.

Anyone have any ideas? At all....? I'm familiar with most of the processes involved here, I just can't figure out how a full TOT reflash isn't wiping the issue...

I flashed my SGS4 i9505 with new firmware (wrong firmware possibly).

It now shows as a GT-i9505G in About Phone.

Can't get PC to detect phone, in keis, Odin or in device manager.

Have installed the correct drivers, tried different PC, different USB cables, factory reset.

Phone is working apart from random reboots (every 30 minutes or so).

It is no longer rooted so I can't install a custom recovery and can't root it as PC not detecting it.

I'm thinking its fudged and considering getting a new phone but thought I'd see if anyone here had an idea on how to fix it.

Thanks in advance.

Well then it's for sure one of these things:

- Something with the drivers on your pc.

[Nexus 6P General] PrevailNow:
My wife was planning a trip abroad and we called Verizon to activate international service on Nexus 6P. The first person we talked to didn't know how to do it, so she connected us to the international department to activate the service. After nearly an hour, this guy said everything was setup for international service to work; however when she arrived first in Mexico, then South America, international calling was not working, so my wife called Verizon and was told that it was impossible for them to activate international calling on her phone, because it was not in their computer system. However, the computer system allows them to bill you for international service that doesn't exist. I have been a Verizon customer for 18 years; but now they treat their customers with pure contempt. So glad we bought new phones that aren't locked into a single carrier.

Can't wait to say "adios" for good to Big Red!
[Nexus 6P General] mdmogren:
Pure contempt? You've gotta be kidding. It's clearly a technical issue with their system. If you're smart enough to buy a Nexus you should be smart enough to pick up a SIM when traveling anyway and not pay through the nose.
[Nexus 6P General] PrevailNow:
She got a SIM from a local carrier a few days after arriving in her final destination country. Verizon's treatment of customers is utterly contemptible. If international service really can not be activated, then she should have been told that from the beginning. The international service expert from the international calling department simply lied; because he clearly did not know what else to do, or say. That is what I call "contempt".
[Nexus 6P General] RHChan84:
VZW employees arent the brightest bulb. I would skip the. International service and just pick up a local carrier SIM card. In the UK, it will cost $40/month for 100MB, 100SMS, and 100 minutes meanwhile a local SIM at $25 will give me 3GB, and 500 local minutes and 1000 SMS or something. And if I went with a $40 SIM card, then it would of been like 7GB and double minutes and SMS.
