[Android Head-Units] TTVR6:
hI

I have been on here 2 days following and reading about this system. i got an S5 Hipzo i believe. it came off ebay shipped from HK, and silk screen on the ad says Hipzo.

i came here by searching everywhere for why this unit that seems to work flawlessly on the home launcher screen it booted on at first. the only issue i seem to have then was weak wifi. my car in the shop would be approx 25 ft from my wifi. at that distance every handheld device can find all 4 of my wifis. most are able to pull in wifi from most of my neighbors. i have one unit that is very picky on distance. a tablet i use for auto diagnostics. i always considered it the weakest of all. its old outdated.

turning on wifi, at first it took 2-3 minutes before it found 2 of the wifi channels. signal strength, however accurate that is was 1/4-1/3 , entering my security code it refused to connect. check password prompt. i tried reversing the case of the letters. it worked. but would not remain connected for any length of time. using my cell for a hotspot i was able to get online, down load apps, maps for nav, etc.

it is after i changed the launcher home screen, by just going to the page that is setup to allow this.

after that my cell, that i could have at the other end of my shop that 35 feet away and remain connected could not be found. its so bad i have to place the cell ontop of the dash or against the unit to get wifi, bluetooth i can be in the house with my cell and it connects. i have tried discussing this with the seller. swapping back to the original launcher page changed nothing. but it began at the change.

i removed the C plug to check connection on the so called wifi antenna. even tried adding wire to it, if any thing it makes it worse.

i am attaching my current firmware and mcu because someone here posted that only the S8 units had MCU 002121 and my S5 has it. according to the specs it is an S5 due to the rom/ram and cpu. at first i thought perhaps i had an S8 shipped to me. reason being, location of item at sale time was NJ, i asked 4 hrs before ordering if it was infact already here in the US, as it was an xmas gift for a family member, yes we have plenty in NJ was the reply. 4hrs later i ordered it. instantly the bait and switch began. we sold so many we ran out and can ship you one fast from HK if you do not mind. it arrived in 4 days either way. i had just thought reading here that only S8 had the 02121 perhaps they messed up or ran out of S5 sent an S8;; when i had to send them the screen shot that was answered.

they sent me links to updated firmware and MCU which i have downloaded and can not install until tomorrow, i am not posting links to it here yet until i have tried it

part of the link that i believe gives you all the date revisions are

firmware1228

321077708mcu1216

if it installs fine i will post on whatever issues its fixed, changed , added etc.

if any one feels they want access to it i will be keeping copies on my GD

sorry this is long, i was not going to create an account to post here, but i noticed others having issues on wifi, id like to ask, was it like mine? worked at first?

i also noticed

millis69 stated he may have seen a way to connect an antenna?​
