Can shrink button memory for put over 6 button on first screen?
[Android Head-Units] rickardoat:
Hi Rodanny, this will not quite easy than you think. i have to check if this is supported by the main app. The icons and the layouts can be modified "easily" but if the main app only support 6 memory buttons there will not be anything to do, i will check and i'll let you know.

Yes, pls share your radio [emoji343] with RDS apk
[Android Head-Units] janlwi:
hi ! Very good idea. Would you make a download link ? Thanks
[Android Head-Units] yurtesen:
[MENTION=3919903]rickardoat[/MENTION] can you share the radio apk if it can show station names?

Actually, why old units can't use radio APK which can show station names?
[Android Head-Units] rickardoat:
I'm sorry but my radio apk does not support RDS (i suppose that this is managed by the main app Ts3561_user_rxf.apk not the radio APK) my unit is ol 7002f (build on march)
[Android Head-Units] rickardoat:
Here you go.

Just copy the main app Ts3561_user_rxf.apk to your desktop (make a backup of this file just in case of something goes wrong), open it with 7zip and replace the icons in the drawable-hdpi-v4 folder (res/drawable-hdpi-v4), replace the original main app for the modified one, set the correct permissions and reboot the unit (obviously needs root and a file explorer that supports the system folders).

(I'm not responsible for any unit damaged ;))

Try upgrading Your version software should same with your default,,, like XPH,,,YLT ,,etc

I'm not getting. I have no way to get a hard reset, as you can see in hmi there is an error.

and the codes by numbers I'm not getting anything.

I do not know if there are any more numerical codes to help

so it looks like I deleted the permissions or something, I put on a pen the 3561.bin files 3561.upd, renicio and click on the screen about 5 times and it says that it does not have any updates.

will I be able to access the permissions per terminal?

Root Problem

Good days friends. I buyed a Ownice C500 Octa Core its called "DGS6666F".It has Android 6.0. I have a 2 problems. Please help me.

HMI: OLSC500_010.2017.12.20.8.47

MCU: TS907.170330

MEDIA: TSv1.0.1_171016_1530

BTV:BT.17.10.571100

-1- I turned it to factory settings. After I install Terminal Emulator and Super Su. I wrote on Terminal Emulator.

user@android:/$forfan guoboneedav

forfan: passwd error

a)What is the password and How can I resolve this issue ?

-2- On the main menu the sound have parasites. Coming sound from speakers like "hıshhh, hıshhh, hıshhh". When I turned on radio the sound is truely pure. Radio has no parasite sound. Otherwise main menu, video or playing mp3 I hear a parasite sound.

If I turned off to sound the parasites have gone. Again have a great sound.

b) How can I resolve this issue.
[Android Head-Units] yurtesen:
I realize that, and colors) icons doesn't bother me but why can't we have station names? It is amazing that until today nobody provided the radio packages from new units.

Can somebody with newer unit extract the necessary packages?
[Android Head-Units] goscioo:
Ad 1. In all the scripts use the following command instead of forfan:

su @#zxcvbnmasdfghjklqwertyuiop1234567890,.

It will grant you root.

Ad 2. How have you connected audio? Do you have external amplituner in your car? If so, you have to use RCA cables to connect audio to that amplituner. If you already using RCAs, you may need to get some noise filter (i had both issues and after changeint it and adding filters that parasite sound is gone).

I have just received my Toyota unit (OL-7699F) and it works well, couple of issues that I have found

1.	Reverse camera only works when unit is fully booted

2.	System sounds don’t seem to work when radio on

3.	Issue with IGO voices

4.	Had to do allot of changes to IGO system file to get IGO to work correctly

These are what I have found so far
[Android Head-Units] Old Grey B:
Dropper, have you had any luck with the iGo voices?

Can you remember what you did in sys.txt to get iGo functioning? I have had a bit of a play but there is a lot more in there than what I have seen previously. It would save me a lot of mucking about and testing if you could remember.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

Something else I forgot to mention about my C500

I have the TPMS, Its another thing where Winlink/Ownice could have done better.

Occasionaly I tow trailers and caravans and the TPMS is really good for avoiding disaster.

I had trouble with the thing firing up on boot and needing to be cancelled but that was just a setting, there are two settings called MAX one is tyre pressure and the other I guess is temperature, I put a largish value in both and it seems to have stopped TPMS unnecessarily panicking.

I could figure which is which with a bit of playing, but its working in a fashion so playing with it will have to wait. Another thing where a lot of wasted time and tearing out of hair could be avoided with a decent manual.
[Android Head-Units] Bonsario:
I also have the problem that the reverse cam only works if the system is fully booted. Sometimes the picture even have lags...

A longer standby time (other devices have, for example the Newsmy Carpad3) would solve this problem. Any chance to do this?

Also the booting animation is awful, would be great if there is a option to disable it.
[Android Head-Units] DropperGK:
Old Grey,

I have not been able to sort the voices out yet but am still working on it. I have attached the system .ini file that is working for me. The big problem seems to be that the unit cannot save back to the SD card so yo have to put the save file on the internal SD and add the line: data="/sdcard/iGO" to the [folders]
[Android Head-Units] gormiza:
try to change " android_secondary_root_path="/mnt/sdcard/addons" " to " android_secondary_root_path="/storage/emulated/0/addons"

[Android Head-Units] fjkoffrie:
just recieved my unit. for volks wagen.

Looks good.

Only the car info app opens every time at boot. is there a way to stop this.

I did not have a lot of time to look at everything.

But radio app looks terrible. RDS info is not complete. no info in stored channels.

I can confirm that reverse camera only works when fully booted. And a little lag sometimes. The c180 camera was better.

I have the feeling the unit is more responsive than the c180.

Anybody knows how to stop the carinfo screen from popping up?

4g is working good, and you can also make telefoon calls. although I'm using bluetooth because I have a extra sim with only data.
[Android Head-Units] yurtesen:

also when I put the handbrake, the seatbelt warnig apperars.

Sleep time doesn't work for me to. I set 10 min. and 60 min, but after 10 sec it switches of and makes a ful boot.

I hope this wil be solved soon, especially because the reverse cam only works after booting.

Hello,

I'm Charles from the Netherlands. I received mine mid December. It a version for the Mercedes S class w220. I have installed the unit but it is an ongoing project. I ordered also dvr, cam box, dab box rear camera and tpms. Most of it works now but i have ordered new earials now.

I saw some questions regarding the mobile phone. Actually there are two ways for making phonecalls. First using the unit itself when you install a Sim secondly via Bluetooth and a mobile phone. During the calls you can use the unit.

I didn't succeed till now to get the cam box to work. I had to reroute some wiring because the harnasses weren't correct for my w220.

If people are interested i can take some pictures.

[Android Head-Units] Chrishann:
Hello, Can the radio app show the station names?
[Android Head-Units] Lersol:
No it doesn"t. It only gives the frequency in the coloured knobs. (alass)
[Android Head-Units] Chrishann:
If the station name is displayed in the main view (in the center) or even the frequency.
[Android Head-Units] fjkoffrie:
It looks like the problem with the standby function not working is that is locksup on resume from sleep, and then resets.

When I start the unit within one hour, and it doesn't resume, boot time take a lot longer then a "normal" boot.

Btw sometime resume from sleep works.

[Android Head-Units] goscioo:
There is no OTG port which can be used for that in C500 (according to 4pda you can solder one, but i don't think it's safe way to fix your head unit...). To fix it you can reflash firmware - you can download latest rom for your unit, place it on sd card and start firmware upgrade procedure. It will fix the bootloop but unfortunately android will back to factory settings.

[YOUTUBE]tCdMERhlKNI[/YOUTUBE]
[Android Head-Units] velocity4:
Thanks for doing those videos, I think they will help a lot of people. One thing that comes to mind though in seeing the 2nd part is that you can get the octacore with the volume knob just like the quad core, that’s what I have. I know some like that clean look, but many of us want a real volume knob not virtual buttons. Also, you didn’t mention the radio differences in RDS capability. I know not a big deal for Australians, but it is elsewhere. Reversing camera display time is definitely a big concern and really the main reason I bought the Octa over the Quaf

External mic jumper wire

Does anyone know if regular breadboard style pin connectors (female to female) would work on the pins in the rear of the unit? My C500 octacore will hopefully be here in the next few days and I want to fit my own external mic but didn't realise until after then unit was shipped that I'd need a jumper plug to use an external mic. Ownice will send me one but it'll be sent my snail mail and could take up to 6 weeks to arrive here so I was thinking of making my own. I have female>female single pin breadboard connectors, anyone know if they'd do the job or should I just solder a insulated wire between the two pins?

Hello all,

I've installed yesterday Ownice c500 octacore headunit in my BRZ.

Everything is working as expected, as well as the steering wheel controls and rear view camera with 12v to 6v converter.

I am quite new to android and my questions might be silly, so i apologize in advance:

1. I downloaded 'Car launcher' app and added there the apps i want. I do have a problem with the Radio AM.FM tuner app, i think its a built in app that i cannot see in the app list. So i cant add it to the list of apps in Car launcher. Anyway to solve this? Right now, if i want to view the tuner, i need to change the home app back to the original launcher app and only then open the radio tuner.

2. Does the Bluetooth in the c500 have multipoint access, so i can connect it to my phone for calls and my obd link for dashcommand?
[Android Head-Units] goscioo:
Ad 1. To get some stock app on different launcher you will have to install some prepared APKs which will add shortcuts to your app list. You can find them here (URL from XDA wiki - Ownice C500)

Ad 2. As far as I know yes.
[Android Head-Units] fizban1978:
Thanks. I downloaded the APK and it worked like a charm.

I'll wait for my bt obd2 adapter and test if multi point bt works.
