Zlink firmware, from 13th of July
[Android Head-Units] Rickomode:
Hi dear, thankyou.

What are the differents between:

G3986_113_Overseas_Generic_Atavm_1803.20240714.182012.7z

AND

G3986_124_Overseas_1801.20240713.184248.7z

And which I need to take for the ZLINK? Latest?
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
I think it isn't for the same device. 124 is for Ainavi H6, at least, that's my understanding, let's wait altair's feedback maybe

Going to install tomorrow -- G3986_124_Overseas_1801.20240713.184248.7z -- on my navigation system. Will be OK with ZLINK, right dear?

Hi Altair, Once it is activate, can you jump back and forth from the original firmware to the Zlink one ? Or is the activation lost once we go back to the original firmware?
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
Then do a firmware update, i see you are on the april version, the installation of a new firmware will reset your unit, that's even better in a way.
[Android Head-Units] Rickomode:
Activation is on your device, once u have Phone Link before and go back to ZLINK:

Do not worry, if not activated u can go back to Phone Letter and it still working. The activation is on your device ID which won’t change.
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
I have found online few screenshot, but i don't know if i can rely on it, i don't want to fry the head-unit or the canbus box. This is what i have but i wanted to know if someone can confirm or make a picture of the connector with an Hiworld canbus box on it, so that i can compare.

Hi,

I have the H6 4G 64Gb.

How can we update the device? (Not rooted)

Thanks
[Android Head-Units] Digitarte:
Hi Tibo333

I'm hoping to do the same thing. I've looked a lot and even asked Ainavi for help and they don't have any support. I'm waiting for some help from these friends so I can change mine. On mine it says it's rooted but I can't access anything from the Linux command line.

[Android Head-Units] fane@1478:
tremendous disappointment with this ainavi h6 unit, I've been with it for a month and I don't like it at all, I wanted to update my old unit that was from isudar with 1gb of ram and 16 gb of rom with android 4.4 and a very good sound and with this new one no It works, it does not even reach the sole of the shoes when isudar, so if the person who is going to buy this unit is not ordered

By the way, if someone knows how to rotate this unit to modify some of the apps, it would be a great help.

If anyone wants the update file for h6 4-64 I have the original that the seller sent me, I'll pass it on privately.

some expression may be changed because I use google translator because I write in Spanish
[Android Head-Units] trooper_:
Hello, I recently bought an ainavi h6 4g 64g radio, and the radio works great, it is mounted on a passat b7, although I have a problem, let's see if someone knows how to solve it; When the car is started but stopped, the microphone works correctly, however, when the car starts to run, the microphone still gives a distorted sound. Has anyone experienced something like this?
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
Ho wait, you are on G2985, which isn't the same device as us i missed these replies. Maybe this is your device then ? https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=1022202

I am trying to use tasker but it says I need to grant it special permission. I cannot seem to connect to the unit with adb though.
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
Kind of you ,hope you get it to solve your problems now.
[Android Head-Units] stevie187:
Very helpful, thanks 👍
[Android Head-Units] kalientek:
Thanks Altair, I tried this version but no change in vehicle selection options or when selecting drive modes. I also did the CAN update through the version menu, and am running the July H6 update. Can I ask where you got this version?

I have reached out to HiWorld on WhatsApp, they responded with "why do you need an update". I sent them several screenshots and a detailed explanation and am awaiting a response.
[Android Head-Units] calebmisc:
Please try to shift your driving mode from Parking to Reverse and D (Normal) with few seconds. And try to move forward/backward a few seconds, then you may able to see the CANBUS version.

FYI, my CANBUS versio will show as NULL after start the vechicle. The CANBUS may require to get the signal from Reverse /D (forward /normal) mode. Then, you may see the CANBUS version in settings.
[Android Head-Units] abdul92-92:
I will do that, thank you, my friend
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
Isn't it what the CAN update function does when using the "2021" code after pressing multiple times the Android version in the system menu ?
[Android Head-Units] calebmisc:
Yes, click the Andorid version multiple times (> 5) and enter 2021, then you will see a button call CAN update. (This is an onine update method).

If you get a valid update file, you can put it in usb dump drive. (If you're using Hiworld CANBUS, please refer to below link for refere.)

@Altair571 FYI i was able to solve my problem, i tried putting back the Ainavi firmware, and i couldn't make it work again even on that firmware, so i dig into it, and it looks to be a bug on the app side, you must have at least one radar sensor detecting an object, then the car will popup on the screen, and if you drag it elsewhere, it will stick even when nothing is detected. Problem solved then and i could stay on the Project generic firmware. Now, i have some other questions (sorry :-) ). I saw other firmware where you mention "BMW theme" (and other brands), what more does that firmware have ? Do you have some screenshots ? Also, is there a way to get these firmware with Zlink instead of PhoneLink, i am still waiting the activation from the Ainavi support, but i would like to test to see if it isn't better than PhoneLink. One recurrent problem i have with PhoneLink is the fact that i share the car with my wife, and it doesn't switch automatically between our phones when i was the last and she takes the car or vice-versa. As long as the same as the previous one takes the car, it reconnects automatically, but not when the driver is different.
[Android Head-Units] ManuelSpainn:
Hello everyone. First of all, I'm sorry for my English, it's very bad. I bought an Ainavi H6 6g 128 for a Toyota auris 2017 and the Android auto didn't work well so I factory reset it and all the Google applications have been deleted. When I download the playstore it is not possible to log in because it does not connect to the Google servers. Does anyone know why this happens? I can't log in to any Google application. Thank you very much and forgive me for the inconvenience.
[Android Head-Units] ManuelSpainn:
Thank You My friend
[Android Head-Units] danilosky:
On my car, toyota auris, it displays the current music on my car's instrument dashboard, would this still work with android auto music on this similar unit do you think?
[Android Head-Units] SErgioSerr:
Good evening. There is a firmware for the G2980 version. The system version is msm8953. Thanks. I have a Junsun radio. The firmware is suitable. Therefore, officially Ainavi will not send me the firmware.
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
You should wait for more advice feedback from people having a Toyota as well, but i would be surprised that this is still working with a Android Head-Unit, sorry
[Android Head-Units] priwi89:
It is working while listening to the radio, music from USB or phone bluetooth on my Toyota Auris 2017. But it does not display current music from Android Auto.
[Android Head-Units] danilosky:
Thanks for the update mate, what about the dashboard's GPS? Is it still working?
[Android Head-Units] del_piero3:
Right, i was mainly having Android Auto or Carplay in mind when answering.
[Android Head-Units] priwi89:
No, there is only a compass. Actaully I've never used that even with the original head unit. Same with the music info. Most of the time I have selected Energy monitor on my dashboard.
[Android Head-Units] calebmisc:
The SimpleSoft canbus arrived and installed. It work for my Toyota RAV4 2017 Hybrid + OEM 360 camer + JBL amplifier.

Seem the USB disconnect issue fixed by this CANBUS.

Due to a firmware design, the navigation (apple map /google map etc.), music (youtube /tidal) will be PAUSE when vechicle displaying the 360 front /rear camera.

Beware, the Simple soft canbus supported Toyota model is far less than the Hiworld CANBUS.

Since I cannot reaching out the Simple soft support. So, I switched back to Hiworld CANBUS.
[Android Head-Units] SerhiiD:
Hi guys!

Could someone share the latest firmware for H6 4GB/4GB?

dsv.audiag@gmail.com

Thanks a lot!!!

And another question on the problem after synchronizing the phone book...

H6 clears the entire phonebook on Google account after the synchronizing finished(((

Has anyone faced the same?

Ainavi just recommends not using synchronizing)

In car settings/advanced options (pin code 123456) you should update MCU and SYSTEM online and that's it.
[Android Head-Units] fane@1478:
Don't even think about buying this brand, it's bad, it has many deficiencies, I don't recommend it.

{Mod edit: Inappropriate language edited. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}
[Android Head-Units] Anton TNT:
Can you be more specific about H6 why is not recommendable, have you found any issues or errors in its work ?
[Android Head-Units] xxo_KaTFisH_oxx:
Hi, just for this reason?

What brand do you recommend?

I want a VW stile, not only touch screen...
[Android Head-Units] Anton TNT:
If you buy device with MEDIATEK it's crap but chipset with QUALCOMM is something different!
[Android Head-Units] xxo_KaTFisH_oxx:
Hi again you just quote me, but the message is gone...

What brand do you recommend???
[Android Head-Units] fane@1478:
They have eliminated it, that's because it bothered someone to tell about the problems that this brand has and the malfunctions it has.
[Android Head-Units] xxo_KaTFisH_oxx:
Ok, and what brand do yo recommend??
[Android Head-Units] fane@1478:
If you don't want to have a headache like I'm having with this radio, don't buy it. Previously, I had an 8-inch Isudar with Android 4.4 that was already a little obsolete and I decided to change it for something better but it turned out to be bad, but If I tell you that it worked very well and the sound quality compared to the Ainavi, I'll tell you about what I've had but I can't recommend brands because I don't know them. If you Google a little, they speak well about the Teyes but a little more expensive and In one of these things you buy where you have a guarantee or you can return it because on Aliexpress if you have a problem you eat it with potatoes as we Spaniards say, greetings.
[Android Head-Units] xxo_KaTFisH_oxx:
I'm searching in Google opinions about it, and it's a mess... and the last buy in Aliexpress I returned back and my money is back.
[Android Head-Units] Anton TNT:
I think that you should consider buying branded radio like APLINE or SONY with Android touch screen just like Chinese ones or something like that, but it costs more and it is not for every car.
[Android Head-Units] xxo_KaTFisH_oxx:
That's the problem, My car is a VW passat B6 and the only way is a chinese brand...
[Android Head-Units] Anton TNT:
Find your self a worthy radio, there is bunch of them on market just do not buy anything less than 4GB of ram and atleast 64 gb on disk, and with qualcomm chipsets
[Android Head-Units] Tumero:
Hello,

I have an Ainavi H6 installed in my Golf 7, but I mistakenly configured the canbus settings incorrectly. Now, my Ainavi starts and remains stuck on the rear view, and I'm unable to navigate back.

I would like to perform a factory reset, but I'm unsure how to access the recovery mode.

I've tried pressing the RST button with a pin for 10 seconds and more, but no LED blink occurs. I've also attempted to press and hold the RST button, turn on the ignition for 10 seconds, followed by 2 short presses, then 3 long presses, and waited for 5 seconds, but nothing happened.

The only thing that appears is the update menu when I press and hold the RST button and the LED button before starting.

Could someone please help me with this issue?
[Android Head-Units] Tumero:
Do you have the way to enter in recovery mode ?
[Android Head-Units] Anton TNT:
If you can go into settings of H6 go and tweak again, if not reset to factory settings using recovery mode (all five fingers hold on screen on boot)

There is other solution disconnect cable to rear camera at the back till problem corrects it self. I mean to disconnect camera, tweak all car canbus settings again and then reconnect camera. Then see if unit is normal again.
[Android Head-Units] David_izqui:
Thank you for the file and the instructions. i had android 10 and i had many problems with the Bluetooth, wifi and android auto, but with this update to android 12 all this problems solve and all work better
[Android Head-Units] gatogordo:
Hi for all,

A new owner for a H6 4 64g. For the money that cost, 250 euros in home, looks fantastic

Now finished to install. Bad moments looking the back camera, but must to configure...

The device come with this OS version...
[Android Head-Units] alex0215:
How about friends, it happens to someone else that when they turn off the car, the Bluetooth of the Ainavi is linked to the cell phone, as if the stereo were on, (when you turn off the vehicle, the stereo screen also turns off), but it gives me the sensation that the stereo remains in a wintering/suspended type, I say this because the Bluetooth remains linked and if I turn power on to the vehicle again, it turns on the screen immediately, without giving the start logos (in my case, logos of Google and Ainavi); On some occasions if the stereo turns off, I say this because there is no Bluetooth connection and it gives the startup logos.....

Any solution or configuration that is not doing well?

*PS: My solution is to "Restart the stereo just when I turn off the vehicle" and thus it stops connecting to the BT and gives the start logos when turning on the vehicle.... I noticed all this because the vehicle battery began to give me problems , as if something was consuming while the vehicle is off......
[Android Head-Units] alex0215:
Any update for December 2023??
[Android Head-Units] gatogordo:
I also spent yesterday installing it. It seems that if it is within range of the BT it is still connected, a problem if you have the car in a private garage. in addition to battery consumption. I'll look at the options this afternoon.
[Android Head-Units] alex0215:
Alguno Any solution, or any comments on your experience?
[Android Head-Units] gatogordo:
For now, neither iPhone nor Android stay connected after turning off my car. A '18 Toyota Auris. It makes me angry that every time I connect my phones, it deletes all the contacts from my phonebook... need more time to look the all the options.
[Android Head-Units] alex0215:
yoLa solucion

The solution to prevent it from deleting your contacts is not to link your accounts directly to the stereo, what I only do is link via BT
