The Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos digital audio processor is already well known in the digital portable audio world.

Dolby ATMOS is the name of a surround sound technology announced by Dolby Laboratories in April 2012 and released in June of the same year. At present, only few devices of brands like Lenovo, ZTE, ... are Dolby Atmos. Dolby Atmos will deliver superior surround sound. You can feel the range of sound, from high to low very clear. Dolby Atmos also improves game sound, movies in any format on your device. At the same time, the technology also enables conversations to be more vivid, distorted, and volume-appropriate for a variety of content.

Viber4Android FX (V4A) is a digital audio processor for the Android-based Adroid, as well as for Android phones. Sound quality thanks to V4A will be raised to a new height.

Combining the two into one will bring a completely new audio experience compared to what has been integrated with the Android operating system. To find out more can refer to the introduction on the internet, within this article we will detail how to install this combo runs on the top of the android C500 / C500 +

To install, follow these steps:

- Step 1: Root the C500 / C500 + [ root of the android C500 and C500 + refer to here ]. Or if you do not want to root yourself then you can run the rooted firmware for the C500 + here . How to run the firmware for the android C500 and C500 + start here

- Step 2: Install SELinuxModeChanger , run this application and set the working mode to the top of PERMISSIVE

- Step 3: Download the toolkit DolbyAtmos + Viper4Android-C500 + .rar here , extract the copy folder DolbyAtmos + Viper4Android-C500 + has just unpacked to usb. Plug in the C500 / C500 +

- Step 3: Use the file manager of the head (es explorer, ...) to access the folder DolbyAtmos + Viper4Android-C500 + in the USB. Run the Rootexplorer_3.3.7for3.0.apk file to install the Root Explorer file manager.

- Step 4: Use the file manager Root Explorer installed in step 3 copy the whole folder DolbyAtmos + Viper4Android-C500 + in the usb to the system directory of the head. Then remove the usb from the head.

- Step 5: Hold down the DolbyAtmos folder + Viper4Android-C500 + select Permistion and set permissions for all subfolders to 755. Set permissions for all 644 files. Details on how to set permissions for files and folders see the video below

[YOUTUBE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2zDCXHmvbI[/YOUTUBE]

- Step 6: Copy the system folder inside the DolbyAtmos folder + Viper4Android-C500 + over the system folder of the beginning, the file manager will notice on the top of these folders, want to meger them. no, select Yes.

- Step 7: Restart your head and enjoy the results

the mic is 100% working test it on other devices.

Does anyone know if the dissapearing paired Bluetooth devices issue still exists on the Octa Core version?
[Android Head-Units] makyla:
Hi. I'm bored of looking for information about my problem but I do not see anything. My OWNICE incorporates the BUS CAN module and I can not operate the rear camera. Currently I have it installed and powered from ground and + 12V taken from the reversing lamp. The yellow video cable connected to the RCA was marked Brown with Rear Cam in the ownice, and the red wire that goes next to the video cable is not connected, since the cable marked BACK when carrying CAN BUS is connected to the can bus adapter.

Could someone tell me what my error is and a scheme to connect it?

Hi ! l have changed my network in France from Bouygues to Free. The new sim card is recognized, the UI is registered to the network. But it receive no data. Is there a fix for this problem ? Thanks
[Android Head-Units] PeeeWeee:
You sure have to set the APN manually. You will find it somewhere under "more -> network -> ...". The correct settings for your provider you can find on the internet. Just google for your provider, maybe the name of your contract model/plan and for APN.

In my case it would be "O2 Free APN".

Nobody have a solution for me?
[Android Head-Units] janlwi:
Thanks. First I used Free parameters as shown on the letter I received (Name, APN, MMSC, type of APN, MNC, MCC...). It doesn't work. The technical assistance said to me that I might write two boxes : Name : Free, APN : free, and no else because MMS port was not working in some cases. It works. They also said that there were two Free 4G networks in the networks listing. The first one is the Free network. The second is Orange roaming network because Free uses this network for a better cover. But, the speed is limited to 1Mo/s and the band can be the band 20 (not received by my C500)
[Android Head-Units] ezio6:
I'm having some troubles with the volume when Spotify and Google Maps are running simultaniosly on my C500+.

By default, when only Spotify is running, the volume bar shown when I touch the wheel (and the one that works) is the NAVI VOLUME

But when Spotify is running with Google maps, this volume bar changes to the MEDIA VOLUME and stops working (if I touch the wheel, the volume doesn't change in the car)

Then I have two options

1- Wait until Google maps indicates something and touch the wheel (navi volume bar again, but changes after the indication to the media volume)

2- Go to settings and manually change the navi volume.

Any idea?

Hello,

I have an other problem with WAZE application, when you list to the Radio you cannot listen the voice of Waze.

Have you an idea for that?

Of more, i have the Octa Core model of C500, is it possible to get LTE Advanced (LTE+) not LTE only? Is it supported?

Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] cvbeetz:
I also use Waze. No problem with radio and commands except that voice input does not work.
[Android Head-Units] jimmycrackcorn1:
Is this still a good unit to buy, or is there a more current head unit everyone is buying now? Ive been pouring over the joying and pumpkin sites for months trying to figure out a way to differentiate whats included in different models, but every single ad has the same info. It's like theres absolutely no organization within the ads. Im not even sure the employees know the difference as I've asked them multiple times what the difference is between units with different price points is and i always get no where with them.

What i love about this Ownice unit is Im only seeing two or three universal units and the the size seems to be the only difference. It looks as if all three units come with the same options.. Is this true or am I not looking at they're site correctly?
[Android Head-Units] lebossejames:
Hi, strange. I have this problem. When the radio is off, you can listen Waze but when it ON, you cannot. I have no problem with Sygic or Maps.

Same problem here..

Do you have a solution?

Anyone knows how i can check which firmware i need to download? I have a c500 quad core.. but don’t know from which date it is
[Android Head-Units] DKTigra:
Just tried it - works flawlessly, radio became a bit quiter on Waze's message. But i did a little trick some time ago to prevent Waze from muting music while playing message, maybe it applies to radio too.

But maybe there's different radio modes on firmwares for 4-core and 8-core (i've got 4-core head unit).

Can say nothing for wifi as my works well.

You can't connect bluetooth keyboard as pairing notify and messages are disabled by ownice. Pairing passcode is generated, but you can't see it to enter on keyboard.

But you can use any input radio device with usb 2.4Ghz non-bluetooth receiver.

Smartphone connects to head unit the same way as for any bluetooth headphones. Head unit announces itself by default.

Hello guys,

I Bought the C500 last week and install it today on my car (golf 5).

It seems to work fine except for two thing :

1° I dont have the control on my steering wheel.

2° The device seems to stay on, even if i take off the key. The problem with the red / orange wires, is that if they are not connected, the device won't start at all.

Someone could help me ? I tried to read all I can but without success.

Guys the problem with supplies voltage. Check +V voltage of your microphone when the original audio is connected. It will likely be +5V. Ownice supplies 3,5V or something like that. Try to suppliy MIC from external 5V power supply.

Good luck!

This is correct procedure for update firmware:

How to do system update

1: need use a good quality USB drive, should not use the SD card with a Card reader.

2. Unzip the update firmwer, and the U disk must be formatted before the copy upgrade file to the U disk, after copy, the u disk can not copy other files to the inside; otherwise, the upgrade is unsuccessful.

3. The three usb port machine, in addition to plug in the upgrade U disk, the other two usb ports remain empty, do not plug any other USB drive.

4. Untill the update success, cannot power off, and take out the USB drive.

This was a big improvement!. The sound is now in fact so high in a phone call, so when I turned down volume(BT Volume) to 0(zero) it is still a very high sound(volume)!.

The problem now is that the caller have echo problem when they talk, I need to reduce the lower volume.

Where can i adjust the setting for BT volume in "1260 mode"?

Are there any information regarding all settings in 1260?

Hi

With a C500 on VW, it access the CAN bus (2 can low/hi are connected on the back of the unit)

So the Info App of the C500 displays Fuel litters, mileage, vehicle speed...

I want to make an App that uses these info, how can I access them

I know I can have them if I have an OBD2 BT over the BT COM port of the Android, but I don't want to have additional hardware, since the C500 already access the CAN bus

I din't found any COM port

Hello, I have Ownice C500 on Nissan Qashqai (MEDIATEK CPU). I 've noticed that the CPU states do not change. It runs at 1200MHz all the

I've bought mine recently.

What I'm really wonder, if it is possible to significantly increase standby time. Now the maximum is 60 minutes. I expect to put my car down at friday, and take again at monday without waiting a minute to start. I expect to use radio, and especially reverse camera (which I did not installed yet) at the instant moment I start my engine.

My kids phone (claiming 4000mAh battery, 4xcore MT6735 CPU) stays in standby mode (still using cellular and wifi) for 5 days at least. A car has about 50.000mAh battery (and 12V instead of 3.7V), so it could keep the HUD in standby mode for half a year. Not a surprise, comparing the size of a phone and a car battery.

Unfortunatelly, if the OS does not deal with power saving modes, then it is a bad idea to keep it running for long time.

Anyway, is there a way to alter the standby time options?

But since a few weeks (i don't know exactly) i can start the app but if it want to tell me something i only hear it extremely short, and after this i only hear it crack until the voice is over!!!

I get the C500 with the firmware v39 but because of the problems in this version i made a rollback to v36 yesterday!

But the voice from TomTom still doesn't work!

Can anybody help me?

But my connection is fine!!

I probe it with wifi and with 4g internet in dash system!!

[Android Head-Units] giant53:
Martin,

When you download and install the XAPK version on your headunit it should work. Read this: https://apkpure.com/how-to-install-apk.html on how to install.

Hope this works for you. (Don't forget to block TomTom from installing updates)

I know from TomTom that they are working on the problem but for now this is the best solution.

Succes!
