I bet the 5.1 hardware upgrade will be free for carjoying customers but they will have to pay for shipping the unit to China and come back from.

What's the source of these files? Are really 5.1?

Because 28.3.2016 roms availables on carjoying website still are KK 4.4.4:

Really don't see the reason to want 5.x. It really doesn't add much, if anything to a radio/Navi unit. You still only have 1GB useable for apps. Just what would it add that's meaningful?
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
I would assume the main reason is that some apps won't work on older versions of Android
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
Looking at page 9 of the 5.1 user manual you can find at carjoying website, it seems you have 1.96GB Internal storage for apps.

This is just an skim to make more money, doubt they will offer hardware upgrades for free, aside the fact that rk3xx has no limitation for this upgrade
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
There is no skim... the motherboard of the new model has changed, the BT, Radio amplifier all upgraded, the SoM is RK3188 still but now soldered to the motherboard, and Joying is still trying to make the old hardware upgrade to Android 5 but there has been no success. That is all.

There will be no FREE hardware upgrade. old models will get periodic ROM upgrades to fix the bugs etc.
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
...and the radio's AF function is now working fine, that's a must have for european users! :)
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
Yes, I heard the DAB+ works well with the new units as well.

P.S> fans of MAlaysk ROM..

we are trying to get Malaysk a new MTCD head unit so he can develop a ROM for it or maybe even port android 5 over to MTCB

[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
They advertised these units as up gradable to 5.1.1. It would be extremely deceptive to require a cost prohibitive hardware upgrade just to do this. I'm going to see where I saw this but they have verbiage that led consumers to believe this was going to b an expense free upgrade.

Dave
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
Joying is trying to develop the android 5 for MTCB but they are having problem with it. I dont think it was an intentional dishonesty
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
Regardless of being intentional false advertising or not it is still false advertising. VW advertised emissions numbers they could not meet, Kia/Hyundai MPG #s they had every intention of hitting but couldn't. Look what happened to them.
[Android Head-Units] pounce:
So the first iteration of the universal 10.1 unit doesn't support Android 5?
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
the 10.1" model comes in both 4.4.4 and 5.1 android. depends which one you bought
[Android Head-Units] pounce:
I got one of the first ones so its 4.4.4. So, the hardware is different on these as well? In other words according to you I would not be able to move up a version with Joying provided firmware?
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
contact carjoying with your invoice they can tell for sure, but to my understanding the new hardware comes with preinstalled 5.1

so if you got it with 4.4.4 you got the old hardware...

honestly without Malaysk ROM the android 5 ROM is not worth trying... hence the reason I tried to get a 5.1 unit for Malaysk.
[Android Head-Units] pounce:
Ok. Yea, I don't see a huge advantage at the moment. Just go to know if I'm hardware limited or not.
[Android Head-Units] dom_christo:
So it is confirmed that we require additional hardware to upgrade from a 4.4.4 unit to 5.1.1 ?

If I would have known this earlier I would have held off purchasing (last week).
[Android Head-Units] JEMShoe:
If the radio reception is improved and the various occasional noises, hisses and crackles are gone I'd upgrade my hardware. But if Joying doesn't even acknowledge there was/is a problem with the old hardware and says that EVERYONE needs an antenna or booster, a power filter, or mic and bluetooth issues are our imaginations, etc. then I have to wait on the community to provide an assessment (i.e. a 'before and after upgrade' testimony from someone that actually had problems) before I'd buy. Like did they actually fix our stated problems? But I'd happily upgrade because I like the potential of the unit but it just doesn't quite do right and there is no real help on the core issues.
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
Joying does acknowledge the issues with Radio and BT and that is why they were hardware upgrades for those. Not everyone had the issues.

As for how good the new hardware is... we just have to see from people who try it. I am not excited to upgrade till there is a Malaysk ROM for it.
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
Hi doctorman,

as Joying Dealer maybe you know how much time we have to wait for "car specific" lollipop units?

Only VW unit is available at this moment...
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
I believe the Honda model is next but there is no set schedule...
[Android Head-Units] Alphas:
The radio receptions really sucks, anyone has a hardware fix for the poor reception. I installed an antenna booster to the headunit but it does not help much when the reception has occasional static.
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
Look at the google drive folder linked in this thread: http://forum.carjoying.com/thread-24.html
[Android Head-Units] Pampilius86:
just read from the carjoying blog:

The android 4.4.4 kitkat firmware doesn't support update lollipop, if you want to do it, the head unit will be dead.

Sounds like the cat of your neighbour will be also dead if you install lollipop on the head unit. :eek:

It is very disappointing to read that the white label reseller manufacturer promises the update and afterwards decides to sell only new devices with lollipop in order to profit from new sells. Especially if there are devices with RK3188 chip running lollipop since november 2014
[Android Head-Units] TT_Vert:
Yep, very disappointing. The 5.1 boots up much quicker than the 4.4 also.

[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
Hi doctorman, maybe have you any news about it?

Honda CRV 2011 unit is exactly what i'm waiting...

I know the problem for Joying is that MCTD units need a new generation of "car specific screens" to match with, but Aliexpress already sell many car specific MCTD unit (i.e. from KGL) so i think that new screens are already availables for HU manufacturers...
[Android Head-Units] CadillacMike:
have you looked at In-Dash.net? Thomas says all of their models are now 5.1
[Android Head-Units] doctorman:
most car specific models are 8" screen and some 6.2" screens and Joying has not released those touch screens for mtcD yet.

I know you see head units around the net , I am sure some are good but I have no idea which, I have already had 3 head units that are fake android 5. I have even seen mtcB dressed up to very minute detail to look like android 5... so please be careful.

as of now, I do not have an estimate.
[Android Head-Units] popeye70:
Yes i know that unit, it has a very good hardware but i think it's still too much "under developement"

Thank you, doctorman.

I discovered these Android HU by a few months, and i really like. But i have no hurry to buy one and i think today it's no longer appropriate to buy an old mctb, so I'll wait for mctd.

I have the same issue. Radio reception is terrible. I've had several radios in my Suburban and all have picked up local stations just fine. Its almost like the antenna isn't connected.

probably you are not feeding the power to antenna

check your wiring

add the powered antenna booster

The antenna doesn't require power. Is in a 2001 Suburban. Only wire that goes to the antenna is the antenna cable. I am going to purchase an antenna with a booster. Not looking to receive far off radio stations, just the local ones I received before buying this radio.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kahoots:
Hello!

Today has been a sad day, I fell and my xperia z3 screen is now cracked and touchscreen is unresponsive. Usually I would just take it to repairs, but since I'm in bit of a financial crisis I'm planing to order screen with digitizer from ebay, but that will arrive only in a month, so as an alternative to keep my phone atleast somewhat useable I connected a mouse with the help of OTG cable . Now I have concluded that using a wired mouse is somewhat messy, so I found few BT mouses of which only one got recognised by xperia. The problem is that it requires pin code, which this mouse doesn't have. I tried with the regular 0000 and with no success. I'm running concept software 6.0.1. This is where it gets interesting, when I tried this with my friends galaxy s6, mouse just connected with no pin prompts. So is there any way to connect it ? I don't know, but since can do the pairing process only with a wired mouse, maybe it's not allowing me to connect a BT mouse because I already have one wired? So in any case is there any solution to this ???

Thanks in advance :)

Hello people , im kinda new and i apologize for any grammar fails and etc.

Ehhh its for LG 221 Dual tv and the back and menu option doesnt work soo i wanted to ask is there any way to reprogram (calibrate) touchscreen to work or i shall return it to the seller ( the mailing is around 20$).

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] volibear:
Hello this is my first post on this website, do tell me if I'm posting this in the wrong place.

I've decided to root my phone and install a custom ROM a couple of days of ago.. But I think I installed a ROM for the wrong version of my phone. After I wiped the phone using TWRP I tried installing Resurrect remix.

This is the message that showed when I tried installing Resurrect Remix v5.6:

'This package is for device: t0lte, t0ltexx, GTn7105, t0ltedv, GT-N8105T, t0lteatt, SGH-I317, t0ltetmo, SGH-T899, t0ltecan, t0ltevl, SGH-I317M; this device is *t0ltevzw*'

So when that failed, I rebooted and it was completely reset to a clean phone. I then tried recovering my backup that I made earlier using TWRP in my microSD card. After I done that is when the problem in the title occured...

I can't press anything else but 'OK', but as soon as I press it the pop-up comes right back up again saying S-Suggest has stopped.

I'm new to all this and I would appreciate if any you could give me some insight.

-BTW when I was reading the linked post for the ROM it said to download GAPPS, but there was no download link so I downloaded it separately for android version 6, and queued to install it alongside the ROM. I'm not sure if I was supposed to do this or if it might the cause of the problem. THANKS.

How to hide an app on a homescreen

Pinch two fingers together, put them on a homescreen, and swipe them apart. This will open something called the Hidden App Drawer. Hit the + sign to add apps to it. Any apps in here will not show up on your other homescreens. Go ahead and hide everything you don't want

Add app drawer

There are a few apps in the appstore that gibe you an app drawer, I got the one called AppDrawer (MIUI App Drawer). Install that, then drag the icon down to bottom row. Viola, you have an app drawer, and I confirmed that aps you hide via the method above still appear in the app drawer.

Hope others find this helpful

Got a new P8lite today, US Version. Holy cow does EMUI suck ass. Is there any way to hide an icon from a home screen? I press and hold and drag to the trash can, but that uninstalls it.

I have to be missing something I can't in 2016 a smartphone for retail purchase would not be able to remove an icon from a screen

Overview

Quick summary - great little device with a handy LED torch, really solid and well balanced with two output slots to charge two devices. The hugh 10,000mah(37Wh) it enough to keep several devices topped up for quite some time. Despite its capacity its not too heavy (226g / 8oz).

Unboxing

So in the box is the battery pack, a very short black USB lead and the instructions. The battery pack has a really large capacity at 10k mah which is enough to charge a Galaxy S6 up a few times before itself requiring recharging. The battery pack is black plastic body with orange plastic trim on the top and bottom. There is two USB outputs with a combined max of 2A.

Despite the capacity of the internal battery the weight of this doesnt feel too bad, weighing in at 226g which is really isnt that heavy and the slim profile means that it will slot into a jeans pocket no problem.

On the front are 4 white LEDs which light up to show the capacity. In theory each dot should be enough to deliver 2,500mah of juice so in theory each light of power should easily charge any modern smartphone, just for reference the capacity of my Galaxy S6 is 2550mah. On one side is a plastic button you can press to view the charge or turn the pack on when you want to start charging a device. The button feels a little flimsy and isnt always easy to press but its not something that will be used loads. If you double tap this button it will turn on or off the LED torch function, however it feels like this wait time has been set just a bit too long. On the top is an LED for use as a torch and two USB output sockets, adding to this devices versatility - the ability to charge two devices at once. The max output in total across both ports is rated at 2A, the output from each port isnt listed and it isnt listed if one port supplies more power than the other. Testing out each port with Ampre the average output for my Galaxy S6 was 1000ma, it charged my S6 fairly quickly (about 1 hour 30) from nearly empty so the device delivers a amount of power from each port when charging a single device.

The little micro usb lead supplied is pretty short, and it would have been nice to have a bit more length to this however that being said I have loads of long USB leads and not any which are really short so this may actually be a blessing in disguise.

Overall I really like this pack, its nice, solid and premium feeling, works well and having two output ports is always a plus. I can see this being used by people away long long trips or away camping or hiking where there is no access to an outlet to keep your smart device topped up. I really like the slim design which means it can fit in a pocket nice and easily.

The G928V Verizon phone will never have root, just like the AT&T version of it.

It has a locked bootloader which cannot be unlocked, that's why it can't be rooted.

BUT there is one really NICE thing you can install in your phone, which is a really

beautiful theme which will work for all rooted & un-rooted samsung's latest phones.

This is a one of a kind theme. - No other theme can even compare to it.
