Hi, Does anyone have firmware for iHeylinkit Android 11 Wireless CarPlay Ai Box Apple Car Play 4+128G

I do believe its same CP-308

Received unit, but when i connect it to TV, it doesnt show anything (have used these boxes before, and they where running ok on regular TV via HDMI and Airmouse). Thanks
[Android Head-Units] 550iMSport:
Hi, i found this thread and was wondering if anyone can provide info on my carplay box, whether i can use other firmware versions with it. It’s a Mr12Volt P2000 carplay box for BMWs with the CIC iDrive.

I was fiddling around in the hidden system settings menu and noticed all of these other MCU options. I googled “Limcet” and that’s what brought me to this forum!

I’m wondering if there are other firmware versions or MCUs I could run on this box to unlock more features, such as DSP settings, low pass filter settings, etc. The seller “Mr12Volt” now sells an updated unit with these options but this box is only a year old and they want $499 for a new one, the only difference as far as I can tell being the software and firmware.

Here are a bunch of pictures of the interface, the settings, etc. I realize I’m probably a bit of a n00b in this forum but this seems like the place I can find some useful info. Any input is appreciated.

Hello

I've been trying to get Google Assistant working on my carlinkit tbox plus (sd 665, android 11). Unfortunately it just says requirements not met after I launch the app. Any ideas how to bypass it?
[Android Head-Units] skunkd:
Try 1106? That's the password for the lower spec CP-300 box
[Android Head-Units] alexwhittemore:
Identical problems here - my unit has a habit of rebooting itself randomly and frequently, logging itself out of spotify in the process, and it's pretty badly unresponsive to boot. I'm hoping a firmware update will fix it, but the seller was so useless I charged it back, and trying that MIC firmware, I have the same problems as yall. Also for some reason I can't link bluetooth devices to it (OBDII dongle) which i've seen other boxes do just fine.
[Android Head-Units] alexwhittemore:
Do you recall which version you tried from that page, android 10 or 12, that worked? Is the exact download you succeeded with still available?
[Android Head-Units] Aratheba:
It was based on Android 10. I can’t even remember the exact version, it was several months ago. I don’t really know if it’s still available anyway. Sorry.

I just got the Carlinkit 4.0 PLUS for my 2018 Camry. It works fantastically, I just wish I had the ability to increase the resolution or bitrate of the CarPlay stream. Additionally, I wish it ran at 60hz like the default navigation system runs at for the car. Carplay runs at 30. By any chance, is it possible to force 60?

I have a QCM6125 box under the brand BINIZE from Amazon with Android 10. When I load the update file into the SD card and do the firmware update, the box will restart, blink red, and then quickly blink green forever. If I unplug and turn the unit back on, it is basically just factory reset but doesn't appear to have anything new on the device or with the firmware.

Any ideas or tips?

here is a screen shot of what comes up on the car and nothing else happens attached
[Android Head-Units] chrisz5z:
That means the file you're trying to update with isn't compatible with your box so it aborts the update.
[Android Head-Units] MilesEdwards:
1. Download the APKs of these applications to the TF memory card through a computer or laptop;

2. Then connect the AI box to the car and then install the application;

3. After the installation is complete, you can use it.

[Android Head-Units] thcinaus:
No I tried everything the company have told me to send it back for a refund and they will pay for postage to aliexpress

They suggest this it might work for you if you get the animation startup screen I had no animation just the syartup screen

Heres the video they sent

Friend, here is a teaching video about the direct upgrade of products that cannot be identified. Please check it https://we.tl/t-peFX4obHaw

[Android Head-Units] potti16:
i got a new firmware from technical support will try that one
[Android Head-Units] Grihzmo:
I have the same issue, how you will install the new firmware, because you can only do it when the tbox it's connected and you can managed through the car screen, unless there is other method
[Android Head-Units] Sergey195907:
I join in.

I am also very interested in this question.
[Android Head-Units] Grihzmo:
Support team told me firmware on webpage are only for android 11 Box, if you upgrade android 12 system it will crash.
[Android Head-Units] potti16:
That is what I also think. But no one seems to repair or give other firmware
[Android Head-Units] Grihzmo:
The support team told me to ask for a replacement
[Android Head-Units] potti16:
Me too
[Android Head-Units] Grihzmo:
They change the description of the firmware on the download webpage,now the say for android 11, and yesterday it didn't i have captures of the webpage
[Android Head-Units] potti16:
now they have an android 12 firmware
[Android Head-Units] Sergey195907:
Can the system itself be upgraded to Android version 12 if the device version is 668?
[Android Head-Units] thcinaus:
do you have a copy and did it work or fix the problem?

leyt me know how it goes I would like to fix the problem

If anyone was wondering for the MMB Max and iHeylinkit MTK665 & MTK808 boxes the engineering passcode is 1868. Sadly not to much useful in there but these boxes do have a very nice UI!
[Android Head-Units] MilesEdwards:
There is a video about T-Box Plus Upgrade (Burning software)
[Android Head-Units] alexwhittemore:
They say this, but of course they do - they want to sell you a new product for $200 more without committing any effort to new hardware at all.

I'm still very interested to know if anyone's tried the upgrade and verified either that it fails, or that it works.

I tried to contact Carlinkit support about the verizon sim card issue and they've been supremely unhelpful. I finally got a reply after literal weeks and it was one line, not really addressing the problem, not offering any useful explanation, and not helping with any path forward.
[Android Head-Units] alexwhittemore:
This looks super promising, might have to give it a go! If anyone else does first, I'd love to hear whether it's even worth bothering - any UI differences or quality of life improvements or anything like that.
[Android Head-Units] toannhanb7:
There is the new firmware for CPC200 Android 12 on their website. It looks like the firmware is made for tester but I don't know why they publish the firmware.

I did upgrade my Box using that version and now my box isn't stable anymore. The system crashes many time at boot and no audio
[Android Head-Units] MilesEdwards:
Oh, that's terrible! Can you downgrade?
[Android Head-Units] toannhanb7:
No, I did many thing to get it work again but no luck.

Hi all, helpful thread, thank you.

Just updated the firmware for my newly purchased M.I.C' GT464EA with Android 10 and everything so far working as far as I can tell. It was a nightmare trying to connect before the firmware update. Still exploring it but i just can't seem access my phone book even though I have an active internet/Bluetooth connection to my Android phone. I see there's a download icon next to it but nothing happens when i press it. I find myself having to switch to Android Auto to make phone calls etc as it's so much more intuitive then having to type a number in, just a bit of a pain always having to switch between the two.

Any ideas? thanks all.

Another issue i'm having is still not being able to connect to Andriod Auto via my M.I.C' GT464EA AI Box with Andriod 10. It doesn't use Zlink app it uses "Multiplay". After creating a hotspot on the AI box and connecting to it from my phone's wifi and via bluetooth it says "Connecting" then eventually it stop and hangs on "waiting". i tried turning off wifi, bluetooth, turning them on again but doesn't fix it. On my phone's navigation/tray it says "looking for android auto". The AI box functions are working fine but no matter what i try to do i cant seem to get a connection to Andriod Auto. Would really appreciate any assistance.

Edit: found this set up guide from M.I.C's youtube channel, it certainly isn't as easy as what they show! (at least for me)

Although I think this is actually the same video?

Hmm, it does look like the firmware update downloads from carlinkit i.e. https://www.carlinkit.com/download_xx/1622873269838962688.html don't contain the right files to do a bootloader flash (.hex). Only to do an in-field upgrade via the TF card.

I've got a Playaibox Plus with Android 12 and overall am quite satisfied but 3 problems bother me:

1. When I leave my car for like 15 minutes (car powered down and locked), the box seems to be still running but loses cellular internet. The '4G' icon disappears from the status bar, applications report that internet is unavailable. Turning mobile data off/on doesn't help, the same with enabling/disabling airplane mode. After reboot mobile data work normally. Does anybody have this problem or any advice how to restore internet access without reboot?

2. Somehow notifications are completely disabled. I've got original firmware and when I pull down the notification shade it is always empty. I've read somewhere that this was a deliberate decision of device developers aimed at reducing distractions from notifications. Is there any method to re-enable them?

3. Any way to get rid of the annoying navigation ball that pops up on every screen touch?

Thanks in advance for your help.

UPDATE: for the 3rd problem (Floating Ball) I tried PieSettings tool but it gave no effect.

UPDATE2: Floating Ball can be hidden by revoking "draw over other apps" permission from ApplePie Ball system app - found this in Telegram channel. Problems with mobile internet and notifications persist even after upgrade to Android 13.

Hello. When I flash my PLAYAIBOX smd6125 UX665 box with QFIL, after the successful flash, the device restarts and immediately gets into EDL state and PC recognizes it as Qualcomm at serial port and none of the LEDs are lighting on. Basically the device gets to this mode whether I am pressing the reset button or not. Before it got to this state only when I pressed the reset button while plugging the USB cable. The device is also not flashing update.zip file, nor turning on LEDs when connected to power. When connected to the car, it is recognized as the device for Android Auto or MirrorLink, but if I press connect, after the attempt it says "check the device is compatible with the android auto" Is there any way I can get the device out of the EDL state? Is there a way to flash the device with new firmware directly from the PC? Your help will be appreciated. Thank you.
[Android Head-Units] JPN_friday:
Is the box you have UX999Plus1.0 from PLAYAIBOX?

I don't have the QFIL image file to restore UX999Plus1.0, so I can't give you precise advice on how to recover it.

If the structure of the UX999Ultra is the same as the UX999Plus1.0, there is a reset button on the back of the UX999Ultra.

Sorry I can't help you.View attachment 5928801
