I tried installing navbarclicktoggler but when i open it it doesn't do anything
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
What Android version do you have (4.4.4 or 7.1.1)?
[Android Head-Units] MOE653:
I dont know actually look at the picture
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
4.4.4 is your version. Are you using rooted firmware?
[Android Head-Units] MOE653:
No
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
I think you need to have root to use the Navbar UI kill app.

Mine was the 1 button unit. I sent it back. Waiting on my refund now. I wasn't impressed with the performance of the hardware, very laggy.
[Android Head-Units] big_daddys_house:
Hmmmm. Fastboot?
[Android Head-Units] MOE653:

Stock firmware is laggy, but when if You activate swap (need root), it works smoothly. Android 4 and Android 7 both
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
On 4PDA it mentions the swap file for the 4.4.4 radios but not 7.1.1.

Is it the same process?
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
Yes, but command may be different a bit. Check result at terminal before adding to install-recovery.sh, try to use or not busybox for some commands.
[Android Head-Units] marcus82:
which swap I have to activate to be less slow?
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
Android's swap file
[Android Head-Units] marcus82:
where is this option?
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
There is no such option. Need root and manually change some files.
[Android Head-Units] big_daddys_house:
Right!
[Android Head-Units] l33boy:
Hi ShIvADeSt, do you think this will make a significant difference on a 2GB RAM fastboot?
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
I will use swap for all firmware releases, Android 7 and Android 4.4.4 (1080p and 768p). At least Android 7 and A4 1080p without swap works very laggy.

I installed a px3 file from 4pda today the interface is not what i wanted but when I try to install my original px3 file i get an error from android. does anyone have an idea why it will not install. I have tried a few different px3 files all give error message
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
give photo of your file name and error screen. Also You can do reset Android (not Tesla).
[Android Head-Units] bjazz69:
20181209A-1024x768-860C_A7.1.1_Koma7_ROOT.rar

the Error is on the android install with the green droid guyhttps://photos.app.goo.gl/SqMbw4AZzNbSUpoK8
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
Check file name, it must named px3.img

Check file system, it must be FAT32

Check that file is at root (not subfolder).

If dont help, try to rename to px3_reset.img (you will lost all settings).
[Android Head-Units] bjazz69:
I have done all the above, it does nothing if i name it px3_reset. My main problem is my original costumer.xml file is gone from my backup. So now nothing is working properly, was trying to install original px3 to get .xml file.
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
Ahahaha, sometimes ago someone wrote here, that customer.xml is not matter which to use.

try also as file name

px3_format.img
[Android Head-Units] bjazz69:
I also read that .xml doesn't matter but the onscreen controls are not working with the new FW so was hopping I could go back.
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
try px3_format.img as file name.

Also tell me name of car, that You have selected at options. As I see You have root, I can find correct curtomer number at code. And You will change customer.xml with it.
[Android Head-Units] bjazz69:
tried px3_format same error. car is chevy silverado
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
check Protocol for your car, it must called "Simple"

To do it, long touch panel with MCUver, then select your car again, you will see screen with logos and selection of protocol. Select Simple and reboot.
[Android Head-Units] bjazz69:
the onscreen hvac controls still don't work. i need a can update.

Hey guys got a question for you. I have someone on my YouTube page asking a question that I cannot answer cuz I do not have an iPhone but I know some of you do have iPhones.

He's asking if his iPhone can be mirrored to the Tesla style radio without buying any extra plugins or dongles.... Now I know it will mirror an Android phone but I am not sure about an iPhone.

Thank thank you in advance sirs. you all rock!

I also posted this in the ram Forum hoping to get an answer in a timely manner.

Questions and Thoughts:

I have a 2009 Toyota Prius which has audio controls on the steering wheel. Will one or both of these units support those buttons out of the box, or does it require additional hardware/wiring harnesses to get them to work? I was unable to find an installation manual on either unit to confirm what any additional parts were needed (if anything).

These are both PX6 based units. Will ROM's that work with other PX6 chip head units work with these, or do the ROMs have to be custom-built? I'm curious to find out what hte long-term support options would be to keep them patched with the latest features and security updates.

Does anyone have experience with these specific units, or some similar clone? What are your thoughts?

I've been doing a lot of reading and there seem to be a concern that the higher-end chipsets can overheat or thermal throttle. Has anyone tried adding a copper or aluminum heatsink and fan inside of the head unit, similar to a CPU cooler for a desktop computer?

Are there any other large format/Tesla-style head units that you're considering? If so, which ones? Thank you for any pointers you can provide a newbie in this space!

[Android Head-Units] RoninDusette:
Hello. I have a 10.4" dasaita unit. Specifically the rkpx3 zxw variant running the rooted Russian fw (4.4.2 if memory serves), in a 2015 chevy cruze.

My question is aboot the acc wire. My head unit powers all if the way down and has to reboot even after 1 second. The issue that caused it is that I had to take out the head unit and the red acc wire came out of one of the plugs. Can someone help me out with a wiring diagram so I know where both ends go, or if it came stock f^^^Ed up, where should I run it to and from? It sucks when I get in and I just stop to get gas and have to wait for a full reboot.

Also has anyone installed just a basic andeoid rom on here? Lineage OS or a modified malaysk rom? I'm working on porting it's constiuant parts to a normal, non funky header and footer rom but maintaining the drivers and access to the settings via the app menu. I hate the way it looks but I'm happy with the functionality. If there is already a project underway I'd like to help, but I'm fine with rolling my own (and yea, it will be on github when I get it to somewhat of working order.). It just sucks to be hindered by its ****ty ui.
[Android Head-Units] MOE653:
I checked yes and no

still didn't work
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
That ACC wire must remain unplugged. It is only for powering up the radio when it's not installed in the vehicle. Your 4.4.4 radio gets its power from the main vehicle harness and the full boot/reboot is normal when starting the vehicle.

If you try to connect the ACC wire while the main vehicle power is supplied it will either go into a boot loop or won't boot at all (I don't remember which).
[Android Head-Units] Paul1965:
My car must be running before I get an active OBD rear camera signal. Are you trying with just the key on?
[Android Head-Units] RoninDusette:
The yellow wires is constant acc is for signaling to turn off and on, like every other deck. I just need to see someone's wiring harness and where it's hooked to. It went to sleep and would stay on but with a black screen for about 5 minutes or so before with the car off and the alarm on then fully power off.

What you said is not true. I had tue deck out and on my table with the yellow and red wires tied to a 12v ac adapter tied together and it worked fine. Yes, the yellow wire delivers constant power. Acc wire tells it when to draw power. Every stereo I've ever worked with does that. Problem is this acc wires is likely pinned into a connector that gets its signal from the canbus or something. Juat need a wiring diagram or something so I can figure out where to repin it. Lol. It worked fine until the pin came out and I cannot find 9ne specifically for this head unit and my cruze.

---------- Post added at 04:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 AM ----------

Usually people hook up the power to the camera to the 12v lead going to the reverse lights, so if your reverse lights don't turn on (like on mine, if the car is not running the reverse lights don't turn on and it gets no power.). Though if your car Support the reverse through canbus option, you can hook it up to an acc switched 12v source so you can have it on while you drive too. I'm actually going to do that this weekend. The reverse signal just makes it pop up with the video feed window. How you power the camera is up to you.
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Suit yourself...as you were.
[Android Head-Units] RoninDusette:
Dude, I'm serious. It was pinned into one of the plugs. Can you guys show me a photo of the stock harness so we can just settle it? I cannot find a clear picture of the harness specific to my vehicle and the damn thing came with no instructions. It would really help me out.

When I first put it in and flashed the ru fw (I want to say the name was 768x1024-root.img. It's on the main 4pda thread) everything went in just like it came out of the box and it would just turn off the screen when it lost power for a few minutes and immediately came to life when I, say, got gas and started the car again. I just want to know how to fix it. NORMALLY, acc is used to turn the deck on in conjunction with the constant lead. if that's not the case I'm fine with that. I like being wrong because I learn from it, but considering I have been looking for a week and can find zero detailed manuals, schematics, or wiring diagrams for my particular use case, let alone generic ones.

I was hesitant to even ask here because almost everytime I do, people are just absolutely rude. I'd like to be a part of the community and contribute. Who knows? Maybe I may know a thing or two. Nevertheless, I'm asking for help. Can you help?
[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Does the radio power on? If so post an image of the system info screen. It will look similar to this...
[Android Head-Units] RoninDusette:
Sigh. I put all of the specs in the first post I did. It's the same, but running 4.4.2 ru fw. It's the same deck as that for sure, but installed in a 2015 cruze. And yes, as stated previously, it does turn on and works fine, except for the sleep mode/power off delay that USED to work before the acc wire became unpinned from the harness. All I need is a wiring diagram specifically for the 2015 cruze or maybe someone has instructions on how they hooked it all up. Again, it works just fine. Powers on and everything. Just the sleep mode/power delay does not work.

The exact fw I am running currently is 20181115A-Ver1.0.1.cool_860_EN_1024_ROOT from the 4pda thread. I was running 20190116B-Ver1.0.0.chwy-860B-EN_update_force but I could never get it to root properly. For the last year I was running 20180824A_1024x768_ROOT as that seemed the most stable and just did what I needed it to do.

I have also added some things like an extra data folder a month ago (using rkKitchen if I remember correctly), but I was also wondering if anyone happens to have the factory firmware for the cruze, I wouldn't mind getting that. I lost my backup last year. Or some way to set the whole NAND storage back it's stock settings? It seems when I do an update_force, it doesn't FULLY reset the thing back to square-one, so to speak.

Thanks for your help. It's much appreciated. I've been slowly but surely working on a ROM that doesn't use Launcher.apk with it's gaudy look but keeps the canbus controls and will default to carwebguru as the launcher (or unless I find something better.). I would to be able to port something like the malaysk ROM to this deck. It's more just a side project when I can find to play with it between work and taking care of my daughter.

So yeah, if anyone has photos, diagrams, instructions, any tips/tricks on the wiring I should do, let me know. Thanks

[Android Head-Units] ramathorn1982:
Does anyone happen to know the Bluetooth audio codecs supported by this radio? I believe I have a bug on my phone which causes it to revert to the "SBC" codec which has terrible quality for music. I'm trying o figure out if the radio is only capable of SBC and that's why it's using that codec.
[Android Head-Units] ShIvADeSt:
Look, aptX is only for Qualcomm, LDAC for Sony, so SBC is only that remains.

Amazon Tesla Style

Noob post...

I read through this entire thread. In summary:

- it is thought there is one company building all the Tesla style units and various resellers

- the various resellers may be running different flavours of the firmware

- although they may state they are running Android 6.0, they are in fact running 4.1.1

- they have been rooted to some extant

- the hardware is ok; people have had different success

- the software isn't quite there yet and it isn't always easy to add apps and things

Given that, the unit at Amazon (.com) for 2009 Highlander fromYuyue (can't post links) should be similar to any other Highlander one? The seller Yuyue, is a new seller to Amazon, so I didn't see any reviews for them; it is unlikely anyone here has bought from them? The have some for other vehicles as well...

Thanks!

[Android Head-Units] Hammerhand.17:
I'm reading and I have a question:

I am about to buy this unit: https://es.aliexpress.com/item/10-4...coche-DVD-GPS-NAVI-para-Ford/32889360979.html that claims to be Android 7.1.1; if I'm reading fine, it's a lie that it's 7.1.1, but 4.4.4, so if I find another one cheaper that claims to be 6.0, would it be better to buy it? Because it always is 4.4.4?

So the functioning it's the same that another 4.4.4 unit?

Sorry to make such a noob question, but It's been a lot of reading (and trying to "read" in russian in 4pda)
[Android Head-Units] bphillips09:
That is usually the case, yes. I can tell from one the images the seller provided, that’s the Android 4.4 settings menu
[Android Head-Units] Hammerhand.17:
Ok then. Sorry to take advantage of you, but if you please, I have two more questions:

1. So is there much difference (in terms of performance or anything) between a rk3188 1gb mtcc unit and this px3 one?

2. How do I know what updates can I use? In my old rk3188 unit, resolution and processor were enough, and seller and manufacturer didn't matter.
[Android Head-Units] bphillips09:
I think RK3188 IS PX3, but I could be wrong... Either way, always look for a unit with more RAM. Try to find one with 2GB RAM if possible.

As far as my experience goes, these units are very finicky with firmware and brick easily - I’d recommend using only firmware that was designed for that device. Sometimes there are small hardware changes between devices that could brick the firmware if not compatible.
[Android Head-Units] Hammerhand.17:
Yes, I know px3 is rk3188, but they are newer than mtcc (and they should be more powerful, but don't know).

It's a shame that they are so easily to brick, because with other models you can install a rom easily if resolution and processor matches (for example, malaysk)
[Android Head-Units] Hammerhand.17:
I can see you have a Mondeo, like me. You said that you couldn't use the original micro, and you inserted one in the original shell. Could you send a photo of this shell? I am not really sure of where this micro is.

My Mondeo is from 2010; in 4pda I see updates for Mondeo +2013, together with other car's updates. If fw are universal, why have several, depending of the car?

One last question: If my unit doesn't have sdcard, an usb unit is useful to update? In my other unit (rk3188), you have to insert sdcard in gps slot (the other one didn't serve for this purpose).

Thanks.
