Hello guys, I've ran into a problem since updating my mekede m6 pro.

Problem 1: My car's parking sensors don't seem to do anything anymore, before when I went into reverse I would hear a beep and then everything worked like it should,. When I came close to something my sensors would alert me. Now I don't hear the beep anymore and my sensors are quiet.

Problem 2: I bought the unit with the hdmi port and before the update i had the 'app' HDMI-in where it would then show whatever's connected to my hdmi.. This is now gone and there is nothing inside the unit's apk where I can install this 'app' again to show me the hdmi screen.

On a side question: I'm trying to find a way to put in another navigation app inside my unit's launcher homescreen besides google maps, but when I try to use another navigation app I've installed, it won't show me this option.

Many thanks in advance to whoever can help me!

1. When doing an upgrade, mostly your settings are wiped. So check your CANbus configuration, and sometimes there is an extra setting under Factory->Original car agreement.

2. Don't know myself not having an M6pro, but this app has already been shared on this forum as more users ran into that problem. Search on hdmi.

3. I had a look at that as well. It seems it is hard-coded. I found reference of many packages (China oriented of course) in the "FytPackage.smali" in Launcher34 (only one I checked), but only limited when it comes to Western apps. Although I mentioned several times that the "FrontApp for T'eyes" is no longer necessary, it might still be very necessary as that one allows your put almost every app in that area (as long as it is flexible in reacting to every kind of resolution using relative coordinates and layouts. So, not the older (FYT) apps.)
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
I have done something stupid: I moved the little icon which starts the 360°-app to the top of the screen. Unfortunataly there is this area where I can swipe down this android-bar showing WLAN etc.

Now I have no chance to move or grab or tap the little icon because it lies "under" the clickable area for this bar. Every tap selects the bar and not the icon.

Does anybody has an idea how to move the icon back or reset its position?
[FYT Android Head Units] faria:
Have you Cleared cache and data from the app?
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
I found a solution: at the bottom of the screen is another bar. If I swipe it down it disappears and the whole screen expands a bit. The icon moved a little bit with the screen so that I can grab it and move it across the screen.

Very strange...
[FYT Android Head Units] faria:
following the advice of @surfer63,

also check Settings and factory settings to see if radar is enabled.

As for the hdmi app, here it is.

And for your side question....

only whitelisted/optimized apps can be used by the launcher as far as i know.

Is it possible to add other apps to this list? Possibly. but i have no idea at the moment.
[FYT Android Head Units] faria:
You may need to change your imei.

I just tried to add apns to my device to test and had no problems adding as many as i wanted.
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Thanks for your hint, but no luck.

I changed the IMEI to a valid one but it still says "Access Point Name settings are not available for this user"

I really want to have Internet via a SIM-card, but no ideas.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
it says it always, but + button still works so you can add APN anyway.....
[FYT Android Head Units] Fredday:
Hey thank you very much for the hdmi app! I will check the radar setting as well. Didn't think about that.
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Thats right, I can enter a complete APN (with +) but if you want to save it it says again "... not available" Or do I something wrong?
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
probably yes, never experienced any problems adding APN
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Did you leave the original IMEI in the device? I think it has to do with it. I changed it to one from a smartphone which I know it is working with the SIM but no luck. Is the original Mekede IMEI valid and working for you?
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
no, imei does not impact APN setting in any way, he just doing smth wrong
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Can't imagine what can be wrong or what I should change. Tried several SIM-Cards but every time opening the APN-Site the error occurs.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:

[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Its the exact way I did it.

Here is how it looks like:

I have a question still if one the Carplay of mekede verbaue, are widely displayed on the board computer the function zb door is open or oil display or speedometer?
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
How can I do this ?
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I have just bought the screen and I have few questions

1. Is the upgrade for both the plus and the pro plus models ?

2. Is the upgrade gonna remove any feature such as the 360 camera App ?

3. Is there a way to stop auto-start apps, the 36p app and the car link kit auto starts when starting the car ?

4. Car link kit is not able to connect to my phone via Android auto wirelessly, it worked once but never worked again, even after wiping the App data, but wired connection is fine.

5. Cant find the option to change the widget App in the general menu settings.

6. Is there a way to make the USB ports turn off when the car is off ?

Thanks in advance.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
Maybe you've entered wrong MCC/MNC so created APN is not shown since it is filtered out. I'm 146% sure that is the problem
[FYT Android Head Units] halloj:
The answer to your question is all here: https://xdaforums.com/t/general-fyt...s8581a-sc9863-q-a-mods-tips-firmware.4396339/

Latest finding is rather 0 instead of 1 or 7.
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Ok I will try it again with the correct MCC for vodafone.de but I tried this before with the same result.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
usually mcc/mnc are detected automatically and it is strange why it is not detected for you when creating APN. It must be something like 252/2 for vodafone de
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Thanks for your advise.

It doesn't matter what I enter in the fields for adding a new APN (MCC and MNC are required). Everytime I hit save the error message occurs. Looks like any access to the APNs is forbidden. But why? Very frustrating....
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
i do not see any errors on your video, i see zero APNs. probably it is 'coz mcc/mnc not detected from sim card (have you disabled PIN?). may be you can try other sim?
[FYT Android Head Units] rockorsomething:
Maybe this is the point. The SIM is from an smartphone for testing. An there is a PIN set I believe. I'll check this out.

EDIT:

OMG evrything works now. I disabled the PIN for the SIM.

I apologize for this stupid mistake. I didn't know that there must be no PIN configured.

Thanks a lot for your help, best wishes from Germany.
[FYT Android Head Units] j0hn83:
The PIN needs disabled, then it should work.

I Installed the provided latest firmware but now I have a stock Android with no menu bar and no launcher, what can I do :( ?Can anyone help please ?
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
There is a property in the config.txt that mentions which launcher should be used after the flashing,

for example ro.fyt.launcher=com.android.launcher22.

You can also change that to another FYT launcher. But also to the Nova Launcher or another non-FYT launcher, if you want to. This is the one that will be used after the flashing.

If the defined launcher is not installed, you will get a popup with the really installed launcher to ask which launcher to use.

This means that there is definitely a launcher running, but probably the notification bar is above your screen.

So what is the resolution of your screen? Do you really have a 200x1200 screen, or could it be1024x600 or 1280x720?

Edit: And if you have a lower resolution screen, then download a standard firmware and flash it to your unit.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
-- removed
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Thank you very much surfer63

Sorry, I'm new to this, would

The launcher is already set to ro.fyt.launcher=com.android.launcher22

I thought I could change it from settings, but this won't work, correct?

If the defined launcher is not installed => How can I know this before flashing and how can I add it to the ROM ?

My device is the Mekede m6 pro (9 inch) => 1280x720.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
surfer63

The results are much better but I don't know which property to tweak so I can get it back as before.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
it seems you flashed wrong firmware for PRO PLUS version while you have just PRO. flash proper one
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I sent to Mekede and they sent me this one.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
so it seems they sent you wrong one. you can download proper version from their site
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
But from what I understand from @surfer63 , it is the same software but different configs, correct ?
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
in case of M6 PRO vs PRO PLUS - no. some software are resolution dependant and also 2k version has some additional software like bottom bar, since 2k touchscreen does not have buttons. And in general crossflashing 2k and non-2k firmwares is bad idea
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
What resolution do you have? It looks very strange.

You do not have a 1280x720 as the launcher34 would display correctly in that case. And you do not have a 2000x1200 unit.

When looking at the launcher34 (second image), it seems you have a 1920x1200 unit.

The launcher34 is optimized for 1024x600, 1280x720 and 2000x1200 (2000x1100). In a 1920 resolution it would most likely use the 1280 layout

as @gordgelin explains: This looks very likely.

First check your systems resolution. That is very important.

Then go back to Mekede and request the correct firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I will check it again.

Side question, This is the launcher I was expecting (launcher34) but it looked very different, why is that ?

https://fytfactory.mariodantas.com/_FACTORY/FIRMWARE/STATIC/AllAppUpdate_bin/launchers_2k/190001034_2_com.android.launcher34/screenshot.png
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Read the headers on Mario's site.

That launcher is for "wide angle" cinemascope 20:9 or 21:9 aspect ratio screens (1920x720 and 1920x800), not for your 16:9 or 16:10 aspect ratio screen.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I tried different things but each time something is missing, for example:

1. I tried the 1280x1024 Rom, and the size looks fine but the map is overlapping the launcher, once disabled it is OK but there aren't any other launchers, even I tried to install one through flashing or through APK but it didn't appear.

2. Tried the 2000x1200 Rom, and the settings screen, and the launcher looked like the original one but still only one launcher and the overlapping issue.

Also checked the screen size and in the device info screen, it is different from CPU z.

Finally here is the link of the inch screen I purchased maybe there is an original Firmware for It somewhere.

https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004866057773.html?spm=a2g0o.order_detail.order_detail_item.4.4d8af19cAV3Dl5

The last image is a screenshot of the original launcher of the screen.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
go tap here and post result
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I have also attached the info collected by HWGetInfo app from the original Firmware.
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
it is definitely M6 Pro with 360 support (not PLUS), so just download and flash proper firmware

what you have now - looks like total mess
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:

I already did, I mentioned that is m6 pro but still can not get it sorted.

This is the one that I downloaded

[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
Are you sure you flashed it? Were there any errors? Have you performed factory reset. 'coz since your app version shows 1280*580 something just does not feel ok. This must show same as your screen resolution - 1280*720
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Yes, Extracted it to flash memory and let it finish without any errors, just the screen does not look as it should be.
[FYT Android Head Units] Fredday:
This is usually a fault in your config.txt so try to find the correct one and then flash with a formatted usb using the proper config.txt + the isec6135 update and it should run properly.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
Thanks, but the problem was not due to a bad config file.
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
I finally found the correct Firmware version, thanks a lot gordgelin and surfer63 for debugging the issue with me, it helped a lot in solving the issue.

I have 2 side questions:

1. How do I upgrade without losing my data, I understand that as long as I did not add the instruction to wipe everything as stated here then it should not wipe, but that is not the case.

2. Launcher App Setting is not found in the new and was not in the old version too, is there a way I can enable it ?
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
/data/data will be reset anyway, whether you use updatecfg.txt or not
[FYT Android Head Units] abd alaa:
So no way to keep previous data and Apps ?
[FYT Android Head Units] gordgelin:
applications will remain, application data will be reset
[FYT Android Head Units] matrixx1:
I am not sure if anyone is still interested but I managed to connect OBD2 adapter via BT to MEKEDE M6 Pro Plus. My old adapter just didn't show up, I bought a new one. I didn't know it will work it wasn't even the reason I bought a new one. But once it arrived I tried it just for fun to see if HU recognises it in the BT app. And it did. And it does work. So there are some BT OBD2 adapters which will work wit this HU.

Is it not possible to update the device directly or does it have to be done via USB?

Does anyone happen to have a Peugeot 2008 all original function will continue to work.

Hi everyone.

I just received my M6 Pro Plus and was wondering how I mount it?

This is my first Android head unit.

I didn't receive any brackets just 4 small screws that go directly into the back of the unit.

Do I need to buy brackets and if so, what kind?

Car is a 120 series Toyota Prado.

I got the Toyota wiring harness from Mekede with it.

Quick question for anyone who has noticed the same. I upgraded to the latest firmware not to long ago and since then have noticed that Apple Music does not resume when I leave and reenter the car. With the previous version of firmware when I got back in turned the car on, and my phone reconnected the music would automatically resume.

Is there a setting that controls this? I have not tried re flashing the previous version of firmware yet, that is next on my list.

Anyone know what has actually changed between the last two firmware? I'm assuming there is no changelog somewhere hah?

I received my mekede carplay and now wanted to install it. Is the built-in Microphone good or should I better install the supplied external Microphone? What do you think and if so where is the best position.
[FYT Android Head Units] halloj:
In my opinion the best way is to get a good quality external microphone and after that go in to factory settings and turn off the built in mic.
[FYT Android Head Units] Instigat0r:
I put mine in last week and have taken a few calls on just the head unit microphone so far and it seems ok. I'll be installing the included microphone up on the A pillar soon though for better quality.
[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
Did you test below 80 km/h or above 80 km/h? That makes all the difference.

Where is the best place to install the microphone? Would like to install it directly where the radio is where it is not so noticeable or what do you think. Would like it to look inconspicuous.

Has anyone here successfully used the MD-EDITION with FYT Management Center Platform Kernel? I tried it on my M6 Pro Plus and had multiple issues - not sure what I could possibly be doing wrong (FAT32, USB, extract the files and load them on the stick, and I see success message at end of the flashing procedure) so I’m wondering if maybe there are some quirks with our device type.
[FYT Android Head Units] Fredday:
Hello Cobra, I've installed the external one which is very good. Most of the times the built-in mic isn't really good. You can turn off the built-in mic through settings btw if you do install an external one.

I installed it behind my steering wheel so it's still close by yet hidden in plain sight.

Hi, i'm planningo to buy the m6 pro for replacing obsolete Honda Connect (android 4 with Garmin) on my Italian Honda civic 9th gen. I have seen some aliexpress vendors (like MEKEDE CAR Radio Store and MEKEDE BestNavi Store) with complete front facia with installed radio. Do you know is this radio can set via canbus the clock on Honda I-Mid and if is possibile to retain the bluetooth call buttons on steering wheel? Seems necessary to hardwire the light blue cable from 10 pin connector on steering wheel base with other radio harness.

All three usb ports on Mekede m6pro are fully functional to connect (for example) usb pendrive or there are some for charging only? on rear connection photo i can see a 4 pin connector with a single port and a 6 pin connector with a dual usb port.

Could anyone point me to a generic chassis mounting kit for one of these units. I currently have a full 2din android unit installed with 2 side brackets that screw in to the front of the dash.

Can you share this update link please.

This version that Mekede sends is the most current than the one you have installed, to install it, extract everything to a pen drive and place it on your radio, it will do the rest on its own but you will lose all your settings, your radio will be reset from scratch.

[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
You simply have to check every now and then. Mekede does not communicate when they post a new firmware and there can be quite some delay as well between their release date and the actual firmware creation date.

I simply download a new firmware every -8 weeks and check the Ver file inside the AllAppUpdate.bin and the build.prop inside the system.img to see whether the App level has been upgraded, or that the kernel has been upgraded.

For example: I downloaded the latest 7862-A12-wbt-9-10.rar (not an M6 as I have an M500S) on 31 August 2023 and it turned out that that one was updated compared to the previous one. The previous one had an App version date of 14 March 2023, and I downloaded that one the last time on 14 August 2023.

The one I downloaded on 31 August 2023 had an App layer date of 13 July 2023 and a kernel date of 16 May, so quite some delay between the build and the release, and built before the previous download of 14 August.

So check for yourself and keep checking regularly.

[FYT Android Head Units] surfer63:
How should we know if it is the same?

Next time look at your system info for the app version and also tap the system info to see the kernel version and remember that.

On newer firmwares they sometimes make another launcher the default.

Yes, you are right, but when looking at many postst you do not always look a posts earlier. If you had seen that the date had changed , better mention it.

I had not spotted that.

And yes, the 2nd version is slighly newer. But of course nothing changes "big time". If your phone gets an update, it does not look totally different either.

Do read the first 4 posts of "General FYT based Spreadtrum uis7862(s) (unisoc ums512) & uis8581a (sc9863) - Q&A, Mods, tips, firmware". It will give you more insight about these firmware.
