Hi guys, i have an Android unit Erisin ES3615A

Anyone can send me the update for Z link (currently version 3.97) ?

Someone who tried to install the ZLink app from this link?

ZLINK APK (Android App) - Free Download

Download: ZLINK for Android Auto / CarPlay APK (App) - Tlink5 APK - ✔ Latest Version: 5.3.54 - Updated: 2023 - com.zjinnova.zlink - Zhijian Technology - Free - Mobile App for Android

[MTCD Android Head Units General] moskito280374:
Based on autounit discord channel (KSW, ID7 Launcher, KSW Tools etc) just installing the APK is not enough because ZLINK is also part of the KSW firmwares...so updating ZLINK always needs to be done by also updating the firmware?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ClemiMD:
Hi there

Android Auto on my smartphone does not connect to ZLink automatically when I open the Zlink app. I have to start Zlink, disable BT on my Pixel 6 and re-enable it, then Android Auto connects and works.

I think it is because my phone connects to the head unit when Zlink ist not running yet and if there's no Android Auto connection available it won't search for it any longer and stays in its "normal" bluetooth audio connection. Re-enabling bluetooth on my phone makes it recognize Zlink immediately and thus starts Android Auto connection.

Am I right so far and if yes (or even no) how could I fix it?

Thanks and greets!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] moskito280374:
Do you have ZLink box checked in the Android HU settings? I get there by entering password 1314. Also check settings in ZLink to enable "Background connection".....

I switched both off and my phone is simply connected via BT (Xiaomi 11pro), but when I launch ZLink manually, Android Auto is opened without issues.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ClemiMD:
Today I unchecked an option in Zlink which was labeled with something like "automatically reconnect".

Now it works as you said: I just open Zlink and my Android Auto connects. Fine! Thank you very much!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] marchnz:
Is this on MTCD platform or something else?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ClemiMD:
Sorry, no clue. It is a cheap china model: https://www.ebay.de/itm/134386830198

To be honest, this is my very first Android head unit, I just wanted to give it a try. No idea if it's MTCB oder MTCD or something completely different. Vendor says it has Android 11 running which I don't truly believe.

If anyone can tell me some detail of this device, I would at least post in the correct forum in the future. ;)

Hello Everyone, I Have an Isudar PX6 MTCD-GS HU with Malaysk Android 10 firmware, i bought a carplay dongle, the seller activated succesfully, BUT when i connect to my phone's hotspot the Zlink app get an error "Please Connect to Internet" i'll check the connection (on the HU) the Youtube and Chrome working fine with this connection, but the Zlink is not.

Hi I already deleted my zlink app of my unit. So I tried a lot of apk but still the same MISS MATCH CHANNEL ERROR

So anyone can help me, with this problem? I attached my system info e and menssage if zlink.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] Danny1298:
Hello everyone. I contacted ISUDAR support to activate my license, and I'm waiting for them to activate it.

I'd need some info from you guys.

What should I do? Just wait and when they activate the license, just open the app and it activates automatically?

But most importantly, would I lose activation if I made a factory reset/changed the ROM of the car player, or is the license registered to a hardware ID of the adapter?
[MTCD Android Head Units General] mbadin:
I am not sure. I never tried it. I know that exists apk file for the ZLink app in my system but I don't know what happens if I replace the apk file. I am afraid to do it. I don't want to lose the app.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ikerg:
I think the best option is to reflash the current ROM or newer
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ikerg:
On version 3.x.x and 4.x.x you could replace the APK with the newest one (copying it tot a specific folder with root permission)...but I couldn't ever installed the apk directly
[MTCD Android Head Units General] q50:
I also have this problem. PX6 (andorid 9 i think ) I have tired version 3.7.6 - 4.0.34

It seems like the volume problem was fixed for me in version 4.0.34 but the resolution only supports 1980x1080 I need 1280 X 720 or everything just looks too small.

When i set 1280 X 720 on phone in AA dev settings but it never connects.

I also have never seen google maps switch between day and night. I have to manually set it.

I does look like it was working in version 3.7.6 But need to confirm tomorrow.

Anyone know how to change 4.0.34 back to 1280 X 720 and get auto day/night working?

I tried using head using reload. Super slow but everything seems to work.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] WojciechWojas:
Hi Guys,

I need your help with the Apple Car Play module in my Infiniti fx37.

It got installed by a seemingly professional installer who connected two Bluetooth devices to my phone - the internal car Bluetooth module and the additional Zlink BT car module.

The main issue I have is that whenever I make a phone call, it looks as if the car is making a phone call from 2 sources at the same time - the Zlink apple car play module and the root android sub-system.

The screenshot below shows the issue - the recipient "Szlaban UBS"'s phone no is 7800984646, as below, and while making such a phone call, the screen totally freezes, and I can't show a map or anything.

The only way to make phone calls from the module without this additional calling panel on the bottom part of the screen is to disconnect the Bluetooth connection of the APC module from my phone. However, the module tries to reconnect, and the issue reappears. When making phone calls my iPhone automatically pushes audio through the BT module of Zlink instead of the Car's BT module.

Do you know how I can solve this issue? How should this entire setup be connected so that it works properly?

Currently, since the BT quality of the Zlink module is very poor, I'm playing music directly from Infiniti's in-built Bluetooth module. So I'm using the car's internal BT to play audio and the Zlink's BT module to connect Apple Car Play.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ercorvo:

I just started having the same problem too. I have to keep turning off my bluetooth and back on to get it to work. It worked fine previously, but I've only had this headunit/screen for 2 months. It should be running Android 12 and the MCU version is: BMH221130A_8581_N2

I have a new T8000 Android chinese stereo. The bluetooth and wifi work great but as soon as I run music through the Zlink app it cuts out bad. I cant even enjoy a song. Even using Siri it cuts out. But if I close the app and stream my music from my phone by bluetooth it plays fine but I lose all my apps from my apple phone on the screen. I am running ZLINK 3.9.27 and tried to update earlier to the 5.x one on here and it just woudnt load. It would act like its loading and close out. I had to restore my System to get the app back. Any fix for this or am I SOL? THank you

[MTCD Android Head Units General] marchnz:
Read forums, find out more. There are alot of posts about this common question- take your time and have fun!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] jlbooth:
@David_J93312 Locate the System...About page on your unit, take a picture of that screen. Somewhere on that screen, there should be a string that starts with MTCx (where x can be D, E, etc.). If indeed there is such string on the about page, then post the picture here and somebody will try to help you. Otherwise post in the Android Head units forums. This forum is for MTCD/E head units.

Regarding ZLink, generally it is provided in system updates from the manufacturer of your head unit. So really technical support for the ZLink on your head unit should be provided by the seller/manufacturer of your head unit. The XDA search can be helpful as there are a lot of posts regarding ZLink and issues that others have experienced.

The bluetooth in these Chinese head units is pretty much hit and miss as far as quality. Some have pretty good bluetooth and others just have a bluetooth module to check the box to say that, bluetooth is "supported."

Regarding updating ZLink (upgrade/downgrade) you would either have to get an update from the seller/manufacturer or root the head unit and copy the actual ZLink app into its application folder. There are others here who have done this with success.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] David_J93312:
Thank you so much for all that information. The system info states its MCU1: 1.5 (AC8259).
[MTCD Android Head Units General] jlbooth:
My pleasure. If there's no mention of MTCD/E/H on the about screen, it's not MTCD. Based on information you've provided it is not MTCD.

It is understandable that you came looking for help with ZLink but this forum is designated for MTCD units. I imagine there probably are others in the Android Head units forums that have the same head unit as yours and maybe are seeing similar issues.

Tried pretty much all solutions presented, but none have worked to fix the activation error (most likely a HU issue).

Someone recommended "HeadUnit Reloaded" (HUR) in a different thread and that fixed all my problems easily.

Not trying to shill, just wanted to mention the app on this thread again, since the last time was a couple of years ago and this can legitimately help most people reaching this thread.

Hello everyone. How safe is to update the ZLink app using the internal function (Check updates)? I'm afraid I could mess things up, as ZLink is oem installed on my unit as a system app. But there are some issues I couldn't solve and maybe an update could help. Right now I'm using version 3.9
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ikerg:
On MTCD units.....that internal function never worked....it always shows the "no updates available" message... the only way to upgrade is by means of replacing apk over rooted systems or just a rom update.
[MTCD Android Head Units General] kabelgleichung:
Were you able to solve the black screen issue? I am facing the same problem recently and don't know what caused it, as android auto worked a few weeks ago. I already tried cleaning data of android auto app and zlink on both devices and tried some older versions of android auto but without success.

Hello guys,

I want to know if anybody successfully installed zlink apk on this kind of nav. I found three versions of apk, those installed corectly but I can't authenticate the application. (Also, I read some posts where people say that the application does this process automatically buy linking the nav to a network, but unfortunately this does not do that).

Thank you!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] ikerg:
Zlink is a licensed software that requires specific hardware. Headunits manufacturers have some kind of contract with zlink developers to include it on their units....if you have a licensed android headunit platform then you can authenticate automatically....

For such thing zlink MUST have been included into your firmware.

Short answer: you can't use zlink over any headunit. Only on authorized ones.

Additional Information. I don't think that 1gb RAM could manage carplay/android auto

Hi all,

I know this is a forum for MTCD units, but I don't know where else to post (let me know if there is an obvious alternative).

I recently installed an android 12 snapdragon headunit that came with Zlink. Almost everything works great, including android auto. The only frustrating bug that I've run into is that if I receive a call while running android auto, I can usually answer ok, but when the call ends the android auto remains muted (despite spotify, etc. indicating that media is playing). The only way to fix it is to force close and reopen the zlink app.

Any thoughts or suggestions? The headunit and zlink app both say there are no updates. Here is a screenshot of the hardware info:

Thank you!
[MTCD Android Head Units General] fflashe:
Hi,

I have two questions about zlink app.

1. I bought a head unit with the active license of Zlink app, can I somehow make a copy of it in case if app will stop working or will be removed by mistake?

2. My steering will call button didn't work (the next song and volume works fine), it's a problem with zlink on android auto wireless?

Edit: on HU side the call button can aswer the phone call, but on zlink, do nothing :(

[MTCD Android Head Units General] creampuff99:
Has anyone managed to get AA day/night mode to work in Google Maps with Zlink emulator? My Android 12 HU stays in day mode even when set to Automatic. I have enabled Developer Mode in AA on my phone which gives more options for controlling day night mode. Selecting "control by car" (i.e., headlamps) has no effect. Selecting "control by phone" has an immediate effect based on the phone's time but it reverts back to day mode 24/7 as soon as the car is restarted. I'm assuming Zlink is overriding this setting as part of it's emulator overlay to emulate a fully supported car head unit? The HU display slightly dims when turning on the headlamps but does not switch to night mode map colors. If I run nav software outside of AA, it will render night mode based on the HU clock. No such luck with map apps inside AA.

Is this an issue with Zlink or the HU? I read somewhere that the AA API for day/night mode requires a car device and that many of the Chinese Android HU's are technically tablets instead of car devices.

[MTCD Android Head Units General] Alex of Smeg:
I recently acquired and installed a Chinese Android Head Unit. I believe it's a "T3L" or something. Matches google images anyway. I can't actually see any model number on it, I don't know if this is even "MTCD" whatever that is?

Anyway, it's running Android 10.0 Car Edition and ZLink V5.3.31

My biggest problem is that when Android Auto connects through ZLink, the screen resolution is horrible. It goes from being a nice sharp 720 image to what looks like a lower resolution image being enlarged to display on 720 display. Kinda fuzzy and not sharp at all.

Firstly I want to know if it's possible to upgrade to Android version, whether that involves flashing a new ROM or something?

I ask this first because it would make sense to do this before considering trying TLink or another version of ZLink, or any other alternative people recommend?

If so, could someone advise me on the best route to take to optimise this system, even if just to get android auto displaying the proper resolution.

I've attached some images with hardware and software details.
