Heatsink mod px5

Hello guys,

This what I did to cool down my head unit, stress test will start soon.....
[MTCD Android Head Units General] greygoose82:
Very nice. I've been meaning to add some cooling fans to mine as well. Just wondering is there a spot on the board to plug in the fan connectors or did you have to tap in to some existing wires?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] shida:
I feed the fans from USB connector, is 5 volts, so fans run slow not full throttle, but that's what I want, no noise at all:o

I bought a Eonon GA2171S unit, px5 4gb RAM, 32 Gb interval memory, 1024x600 resolution. I installed Malaysk ROM, everything was ok, after I entered in factory settings-touch study and calibrate the display, after reboot, the unit shows 800x480 resolution with colored bars in the right of the display. How can I restore 1024x600 resolution?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] typos1:
You need to make a text file on your computer, go into recovery and flash it, it sets the screen resolution. The details are in this thread :

https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/.../mtcd-verified-cross-compatible-mcus-t3624724

Basically you make a text file, type "screen:1" in it, save it as "dmcu.ext" and flash it with an MCU, it may also work flashing it on its own.

The thing is, that thread contains info about changing the resolution to 800x480 for when the 1024x600 setting is applied to 800x480 units, your problem is the other way round. For RK3368/PX5 units its "screen:1" to set 1024x600, for RK3188/PX3 units its "screen:3", so you may have to experiment with the number or post in that thread and ask what number it is to get 1024x600 when its set to 800x480.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Clandaries:
In another threat he wrote that he had solved this problem :) I think it was he had to change the vendor in settings.

Regards
[MTCD Android Head Units General] sambadii:
Yes, I restored the resolution. I entered in 'factory settings'-> 'customer version' and I have to choose from 1 to 12. 1 was default(1024x600), I set it to 5 and messed up the screen. Back to my 1024x600 resolution.

Thank you for help!

Google maps v 10.9.2

I installed the latest version of google maps yesterday on my unrooted device and it seems to not crash, every previous version would hang immediately after settimg a destination and hitting go.

Anyone else having success with this version?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] Clandaries:
Never had any issues with google maps. Rooted or unrooted, no problems so far...
[MTCD Android Head Units General] reverendhtc:
Exactly the same issue for me with PX5 and android 6.

Since upgrading to android 8, maps does not crash when starting to navigate.

Can you let me know which version of android you hard running?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] rory182:
It's an unrooted xtrons px5 with octacore and 2gb ram running Android 6 as it was when I bought it. I'm delighted that Google maps is now working, with lots of nice Google features like satellite maps, in map music control. Agama car launcher widget for Google maps working nicely too.

Cheers
[MTCD Android Head Units General] reverendhtc:
Okay, that is good news. I upgraded to android 8 to fix the maps problem and now I have other issues so if maps now works with android 6 I will downgrade again.

Please let us know if it crashes again with this new version.

I have been trying to update my radio for a few days, at first I tried to do 6.0 to 8.0 then 6.0 to 9.0, and now I'm just trying to update the mcu and firmware from hot audio for 6.0.

motherboard and core board with DSP module on

Hi, I am currently using px5 KLD one.

It's been almost 2years and nothing to majorly complain about this unit so far except the quality of sounds.

I am fully aware of having a proper head unit like sony, alpine or pioneer is the easiest way to solve the problem if I put sound quality on the center of interests but I guess I chose convenience over sound quality somehow.

these days, head units with DSP module are widely on the market and I heard some sellers sell motherboard and core board with DSP module on for PX5 KLD. I just can't figure out where to get it tho.

I spoke to the seller I originally bought the headunit from but he just kept ignoring my messages after said he had it or could get it if I wanted it.

Does anybody know how to get motherboard and core board with DSP module on?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ikerg:
I dont think any manufacturer or seller will provide a motherboard only, unless you are under warranty and demonstrated some malfunctioning

Yesterday I installed a new Amp and Speakers and now theres a hissing/butzing sound when I turn on the car. When the Unit is turned off there is no buzzing, so I guess its the Xtrons Unit. Any fixes?

GS MTCE 6.0 to 9.0 or 8.0 upgrade

Xtron PX5 2gb/32gb: MTCE_GS_3.40, Android 6.0.1

I previously upgraded to 9.0 (ISD_PX5_9.0_ota_20190505). Everything seems working fine, but BT not working. I was not sure what to do, then downgraded back to 6.0.1.

After reading more on this forum, I realized maybe the build has an issue with SD-968 (appears so from 6.0 factory settings). I am thinking either upgrade to 8.0, or 9.0 again. Anyone know how following on GS and in particular SD-968 BT?

[MTCD Android Head Units General] kovlaszlo:
Quote:

I have an update: I ended up at the factory reset, and the problem still exists. I have still no explanation, but now I can tell, under what circumstances the unit restarts. The device reboots with 100% probability, if I do the following:

-	I stop with the car (engine on)

-	wait at least five seconds

-	I start accelerating from the steady position - the device restarts immediately with cold boot.

The restart happens so suddenly after the throttle, that I can hardly believe, the GPS makes this. I just push the throttle, start letting the clutch up, and it reboots. The unit does not restart in case, that I stop for a few seconds only. It also does not restart, if I only slow down, even if it is 5 km/h or less - I have to get to a complete stop, wait, and then start.

I agree with what you think now: it is the most stupid thing I have ever heard. But believe me, I spent half an hour driving around in the town, not believing the phenomena. As I wrote, with the above three steps I can reproduce the problem in every case.

At the moment I have two idea, but I hardly believe in both of them:

A: maybe GPS. I can try to unhook the GPS antenna, and check what happens

B: I have installed a Connects2 CAN adapter for the steering wheel control (which works fine). Maybe, via the CAN box a signal comes, that causes this - this is even less believable, than the other option, I can not imagine that anything besides of the steering wheel signal comes via the CAN adapter.

+: in any case, the firmware update won’t hurt (My version is from 3rd March.)

I have a Skoda Superb which had a cheap CE headunit when I bought it. That gave a compass bearing to the in car display. I replaced it with a MTCD headunit and lost the compass display - so I would say that MTCD units do not supply this. However some VAG cars (which don't come with the more expensive oem satnav units) have a separate compass sensor. It is possible to get that sensor, install it and configure canbus to use it instead of the satnav integral compass.
