The seller all of a sudden send me an update, for the EKIY D7. But when I go into the FYT Build Prop, then it's labeled as an ATOTO...

And the last line in the build prop says: ro.build.version.release=11

I'm guessing that's how they fake the Android version? In this update, which I haven't installed yet on the device. They are faking the Android version to be Android 11 making it even worse.

And in metadata, I can actually see the Android is 8.1.0

Or at least I'm guessing, this number refers to the real Android version.

I seriously don't know for which device this update was meant? But it didn't work on my update, and I was afraid that this stupid update almost brick the device. That doesn't matter if I get a full refund from AlliExpress....

But I still don't know what's the solution from AlliExpress going be.
[Android Head-Units] DexterMorganNL:
So finally AliExpress made a decision about my dispute: from the € 150 I spend for this headunit, I'm going be getting € 30 back. Which I think is reasonable....

It's still a fully functional Android headunit, although running on Android 8.1 and basically incapable of running Google Maps straight from the head-unit. Other navigation apps might work perhaps better, but I haven't tested it anymore.

Now I'm looking into Mekede, which I guess I could open a dispute against this seller as well after receiving the FYT Based UIS7862 headunit.... because they also lie about Android version. Only they mention the correct API Level, so I already know it runs fake Android 11.

I'm guessing I will just be selling the headunit, either completely. Or I'm going be taking it out of the frame, and then order a new one. Because I would still need an Android head-unit, if I wanna keep the reverse camera.
[Android Head-Units] DexterMorganNL:
Well I used the device in the end for three weeks, and have decided to replace it with an Mekede M500s. Which I should have gotten in the first place, but I simply made a wrong decision.

My end verdict would be: totally useable for Android Auto or Apple Carplay and listen to your FM-Radio or music etc. Not so much useable for running heavier Android apps.

I haven't found many light Android Apps? I tried Mapy.cz a Czech Google Maps, but that made the headunit crash and reboot. So in the end I haven't bother anymore, finding working navigation apps. Although I noticed for some kind of reason, they preinstall iGo navigation. Is that supposed to be some kind of light weight navigation app?

Another thing this headunit is useful for: hooking up your reverse camera, believe it or not it supports AHD. Because I switched the 12led reverse camera for an 720p AHD reverse camera and it worked.

Actually the main reason I'm still sticking with Android headunits, is because it seems the best choice if you don't have the option to get something OEM.

Ofcourse a JVC headunit could have done, but those have limited functionality: do they even support AHD reverse camera's? And what I have seen, the screens in these devices are of really bad quality. Similar to something you get for €$ 60 bucks on AliExpress.

I'm just hoping these head-units last a long time, because I read someone who had an iDoing headunit: it broke after a year. The only thing people never mention, how much it actually had been used.
[Android Head-Units] Xiomax:
@DexterMorganNL Thank you very much for detailing your experience with these scammers! I was very close to ordering an android T7 head unit from them so I'm very grateful for the warning. It's a shame they didn't punish these scammers harder but at least you go a bit of justice out of it by preventing others from giving them money.
[Android Head-Units] emarie3680:
Hello everyone.

I received the head unit three days ago for my Ford Fiesta (2011). It was easy to set-up. I haven't had time to install the rear camara yet.

There's one thing I find annoying however : everythime I start the device, it starts with Youtube? I'd like to start on the homepage. Do you know what to do ?
[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
Hallo Dexter and everyone here. I am new in this forum and hope to find some information as well as sharing some.

Couple of weeks I have bought this exact unit for my beautiful 2004 Toyota Camry. I just to have same shape of unit in my Volvo and it was working ok I think, but that one was from different seller. I chose this model thinking for my usage will be good enough. Even though I am driving a lot and long distance I am still not living in my car. I just need some music, phone, Navi and the reversing camera is just a little bonus for safety. I have find some issues with this unit. The version of the Android is clamed to be 11.xxx but Google says it’s 8.xxx. The Apple car is little slow to connect but I can live with it. The only problem with this is that when I have my phone connected via Bluetooth the Apple car will not connect.

Still with switching it manually it would work. THE major problem is my original automatic antenna. I was controlled by the original radio. Radio on -antenna goes up, radio off- antenna goes down. With this EKIY unit the antenna still goes up and down with the unit on and off, but the unit is turned on with the engine start or ACC and turned off within 1-2 minutes after the engine off. And with this goes the antenna up and down. This is the problem especially when I want to drive through car wash line ( for example). I just can’t find a way to turn the radio off while driving or the engine running. The seller is telling me that it can’t be done and I am having trouble to believe it. And the other problem is the screen brittnes. I can’t dim it witch is enjoying by driving at night. I can turn it off but the unit goes into sleep mode. I still want to use it, but the sharp light of the screen is tiresome to eyes. I know this post is almost a year old but if anyone reads this, please help me. I don’t know much about Android but I hope there is some solution to the problems. Thank you all in advance. Best regards

[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
Hi, I believe it can be changed in factory settings. The passcode is 3368. Or using the papier clip or pin you can reset the unit, then set up your device once more. I hope this helps

Mario von Hallwil
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
You could cut the power wire to your unit and add a switch, so you can manually switch it off. If you investigate further your might add a switch for antenna only, instead of cutting power wire to the head unit.
[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
Thank you for your answer. I was thinking the same but I want to avoid surgical procedures if I can. If I don’t find any other solution I will cut the wires.
[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
Guys, even though the unit from EKIY has some imperfections I must say that their customer service is excellent. They are communicating with me on daily basis and even send me link with EKIY passcode to download new firmware as well as update Android 8 to Android 11. I didn’t update the unit yet as I have now other priorities. I will keep posting new info with pictures as I will make some progress. I also have problems with the rear camera . I will post later. I wish everyone nice weekend and good luck with our toys .
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
My unit is also from EKIY. They were indeed helpful to solve the issues, which I caused tbh
[Android Head-Units] BooM:
Hey, maybe it's a stupid question, but did you try long press the on/off button? Mine goes nicely to deep sleep which should solve your problem. Other than that, there is a specific wire for ANT and a function to control this in settings, so somebody in China thought about this issue already :)
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
You quoted the wrong person. I hope he will see it

@Mario von Hallwil
[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
Hi and Thank you. Of course I did. Even tried some combinations of buttons. It goes to sleep, but does not turn off. Will see, I am waiting for response from Chinese technical support.
[Android Head-Units] movii:
Hello. I just bought a navigation kk5 pemtru kadkar with canbus. everything works except for the reverse camera. I made the connections as they say to the brown wire to the canbus, but the camera does not start. I measured the voltage with the car in reverse and it is 0 on that brown wire. the camera is ahd and the navigation dim is set like this. some solutions
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
You can also connect the camera power to the reverse light. It doesn't have to be from the head unit.
[Android Head-Units] Mario von Hallwil:
The power to the camera is supplied by the reverse light wire. The other wire from the unit does not supply the power, it’s purpose is to switch the mode of the unit to display the reverse camera input, that means you won’t be able to measure there anything unless the reverse camera does send the signal there.
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
It can be taken also from the head uni. I did like that since it was more convenient in my car. It is a different wire than what you are referring to
[Android Head-Units] andre_1309:
i bought a d7 ekiy unit for a ford fiesta and since i have instaled this unit my car battery started to drain . if i let my car 1 day stopped it wont start . i 'm wondering if there some setting to sleep mode i'm missing . i saw in some other unities you can setup for 1 day sleep mode or more or completely turn of and every time you turn of the car you unity will turn of completly and cant find that option in my unit . anyone had a similar problem ?
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
Not sure what is D7, but my guess is it is still a TS10 model. Check what is mentioned on the About page. If it is TS10 you can have a look at thread on TS10 models. There is a setting for sleep duration.

I would check wiring first. Did you setup the wiring yourself, or it was done by EKIY? Try to ask them first what is best to do. Usually they are helpful, but you will need to give them some measurements with the voltage meter.

If all above doesn't help you can think about fixing external switch to manually connect power each time.
[Android Head-Units] andre_1309:
Thanks i will try to contact them. D7 d7 its The model informed lol . I have seen in some models that setup for sleep mode but my only has this ( image attached) i will ask them for help see if there is some updates for the firmware
[Android Head-Units] lissics:
Post screenshot from About or System page so we can identify it
[Android Head-Units] andre_1309:
Ok i will take a photo from the about screen
[Android Head-Units] 0ptimus82:
I bought a EKIY T7 for my Honda Civic 2013, this car has an additional screen called IMID. After installing the radio the IMID was always ON even when the car was totally off, there was no way to turn that screen off, so I had to disconnect the battery car to avoid it to drain.

I reinstalled the original radio and everything was back to normal, there was nothing wrong with the car like a blown fuse or a bad connection.

Second try with the EKIY T7: same problem. I decided to reset the unit to factory defaults, after the unit rebooted for first time no luck, the problem still was there.

I started configuring the unit in settings, when I got to the can bus configuration, there were different options (comparing to before the factory defaults reset), after selecting 2014-Civic the problem was solved, IMID screen now turns off as it should, no more battery draining, all steering wheel buttons work (including the call buttons), and the media information is now displayed in the IMID screen as it used to before installing the android radio.

My conclusion is that the can bus adapter provided or any related update was the problem, mine is RAISE brand.
[Android Head-Units] Maferto:
Wow, I wanted to buy an EKIY unit but I don't know what to do.

Above all, it has Android 10 so that it doesn't mess with Google

Which one do you recommend I buy?
[Android Head-Units] ViperAMD:
Yeah same as above, i keep getting ads for ekiy.com.au (i'm in Australia). Is the OS out of date? I feel like chinese head units and android set top boxes for that matter are always a couple versions out of date.

Its highly probable that your last install has issues with your new one..

Did you install any kernels along with it?

If not its probably the rom

You could keep on troubleshooting like restarting your phone and changing sims but if it doesn't work

You might have to factory reset and try again

OR

Do a Full Wipe and re-flash the rom
