I ordered an USB tester and will then measure the HU USB ports a.o. I think the DAB+ dongles are simply not getting enough power from the HU usb ports to receive optimal. Possibly the ports can not handle the current draw from such an dongle. They can't even handle the draw from a phone to (quick) charge it.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Could be, when I look at the specs of the DAB+ dongle I bought (hope that info is right), "operation current = 50mA".

If our usb port can not handle 50 mA then indeed it will take a year to charge a modern phone :ROFLMAO:.

I think later this week my dongle will arrive, we will see...appreciate all tests that can be done on our HU (y)

When I connect my phone to USB1 or 2 it pops a message saying slow charging & recommends to switch chargers. It even isn't stable. Flipping charging process on and off. I wasn't planning on driving to the French Riviera from here 😅 so I started charging over cigarette lighter again.

They must have special cars & phones in China...
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Got the solution now: you have to type 22558800 as factory menu code and not as password at the google reset menu. Just tested it myself.

Cheers
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Thx, on the road I connect over hotspot to my phone and use that data plan. Or my wifi at home for installing, manual updating/maintenance. Works quite well.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Did anyone figured out how to add more boot logos? My device came only with the default android logo.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Not yet but was planning to give it a try with total commander & wifi transfer plugin or so
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
when you say fan application works correctly, you mean you are able to control the fan through the app? Like turn it off or adjust the fan speed? I am not able to control anything on the fan. It is constantly running at full speed.
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
This is what I got from the vendor:

1. If your player is 1280*720 screen, you need to rotate the picture 90 degree, and cut it into 720*1280 size, transform the picture to .BMP format.

2. If your player is 1024*600 screen, you need to cut the picture to 1024*600 size, transform the picture to .BMP format.

3. copy the picture into your Udisk root path, and then connect Udisk to the player. follow the steps settings-factory-8888-Logo set-then you can see your picture and select it- click update logo.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Works like a charm!
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
You have a cool vendor, mine isn't such a s(up)port...
[Android Head-Units] fjavierb:
To put a logo at the beginning you have to create an image of 1280x720 pixels, rotate it 90 degrees and save it as .png. Above all, turn it to 720x1280, otherwise it will not work for you, it will come out all black.

You record on a flash drive and load it on the radio.
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
Well, I had to pester them a lot to get some stuff. The unit they shipped to me had an August firmware which has a strong Wi-Fi reception but terrible everything else. Then they sent me links to the 2611 firmware that was better everything but Wi-Fi became terrible.

Now I have to plug an access point in my garage to get decent connection. I'll take this new firmware over the older one 😂
[Android Head-Units] Vėžys:
Hi. I tried to get root permissions and now I have a brick😢. Could you ask your vendor how to fix it? Thank you
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Did you connect these little antenna's at least? Are supposedly for wifi & bluetooth.
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
Yes that cable is connected as I have connected my backup camera too. It is using the same port.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
So png works as well as bmp?
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Ok because I disconnected it because I do not have a backup camera and I was annoyed by the black screen with the grid when reversing. A little mistake because now I have to park at my front door to connect to my home wifi network (closest to my router) if I want best connection 😅. Will have to reconnect it some day... when I install a back camera...
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
At first I thought I have accidentally disconnected the cable 😅, but it is connected properly as my camera is working ok
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
Can you tell me what you did so that I can try connecting with my vendor and have better idea on how talk to them. They also asked for videos of what I was seeing and experiencing. That might be helpful for them to diagnose.
[Android Head-Units] TTVR6:
hi

did you infact find a way to connect a wifi antenna?

the fan application works in two automatic and manual modes showing the current temperature, manual mode the fan keeps working constantly and in automatic mode it works only when it reaches a certain temperature,
[Android Head-Units] Aaantonn:
I bought S8 from another seller, while for 3 months there was not a single problem that was written about here. The only thing I did was a microphone, but look on YouTube, this is a problem for all models, everything else in them is absolutely the same, both in Teyes and in another company, for the average user, only the firmware is different. Inside they are made the same. Most likely they take spare parts from one manufacturer and assemble them under their own name. I saw different models of different companies in disassembled form, I don’t know how they differ. In my case, I'm 99% satisfied.Perhaps there is some difference in the details, but I'm not interested.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
He spoke about lagging and restarts, maybe he has general voltage problem in his HU.

I stay hopeful that a DAB+ dongle with a operation current < 50 mA (0.25 Watt) will function right, time will tell...my USB front camera works flawless, no worry here yet.

And yes special they are :sneaky:, but didn't expect a 10 Watt charging capability from this HU, USB 2.0 port should be designed for a maximum of 500 mAh load, but hopefully you can tell later with a USB tester what it does.
[Android Head-Units] Astralech:
There is one function in Teyes that is solved differently from the others. The processor has its own fan-cooled heat sink, and the case only cools the power amplifier screwed down and not in the pocket.
[Android Head-Units] marioti:
But is it worth to spend ca. twice that much as S8 price (i compared HU with 6/128, and same processor, from official stores). For me not, but i don't look to anybodys pocket :)
[Android Head-Units] renard69:
Did you manage to use carletter with android auto wireless? In my case Galaxy S22 or some Chinese phones it works, but without mutlitouch which is essential for maps... All those phones work smooth in other cars with wireless/wired android auto with good multitouch support.
[Android Head-Units] Clandaries:
For me the CC3 is 10 times better than the Hizpo S8.

I had to much trouble with the Hizpo.

[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Hi, does anybody have the radio apk file to share, please?

I'd like to look inside it for possible porting of my app NavRadio+.

Thx ;)
[Android Head-Units] renard69:
Hello. Do you have some direct communication with vendor? I've noticed the obvious bug with Android Auto (wired/wireless). In my case with Galaxy S22 and some other Chinese phones. It works, but without mutlitouch which is essential for maps... All those phones work smooth in other cars with wireless/wired android auto with good multitouch support. I suspect this to be Carletter host app bug, but I can not find neither the github repository nor even the contacts of developers. Any ideas how to fix or at least report this issue? Thanks in advance!
[Android Head-Units] zerebede:
I have no problems on Galaxy note 10+.
[Android Head-Units] renard69:
Lucky you. Wireless? Can you tell me the version of that carletter application?
[Android Head-Units] zerebede:
Sorry, sorry i have no multitouch too. Tried just now wireless. Never tried wired.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Thanks, but my S8 unit works flawless and paid half the price of your CC3, maybe it's time to leave us, this thread is for helping eachother out for the S1-S8 unit's, not for oooooh my other unit is sooooo much better.

This will all respect but you not helping.
[Android Head-Units] zerebede:
Also my S5. the best I've had to date. and I can say that I've had a few.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Is this what you need......

Extracted QF_FMRadioExt.apk from the latest 23030306 FW
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Yep, thank you :)
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
BTW it was located in the "\system\priv-app\" folder
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Maybe it is only me, went back from latest 20230306 to 20230207 FW, had some weird sounds from the radio when using my Sygic navi, on moment that Sygic makes notification, it should with navi mix put the radio a little down but the radio sounded really weird, like under water sounds.

Also had the impression that the antenna reception of the radio is a little worse.

All good again with downgrading to previous februari version, actually the first time I don't like an update.
[Android Head-Units] Barykelo:
https://webshare.cz/#/file/t23MaWKaGm
[Android Head-Units] KoTiX2:
Thanx:)

Do all the versions of this model S1 to S8 share the same apk/firmware?
[Android Head-Units] Barykelo:
I have the same experience. Problems with Sygic and worse radio reception. Returned to 230109.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Is this the original radio apk from our firmware that @Barykelo shared?, the one I uploaded earlier is the FM radio apk from our firmware. I looked inside it and it shows all the graphics from our radio app.

And yes firmware is the same for the s1 to s8 units.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
This site https://autofather.com/shfw_1 was recently shared in the firmware thread. I just had a look at it. Quite informative. Has FAQ and detailed explanation for a lot of issues with S series in English.
[Android Head-Units] Barykelo:
Sorry , this is online radio from 230306 , not FM
[Android Head-Units] andysabre:
hi. i hope to see Navradio+ soon on my radio!!!!!!!
[Android Head-Units] Aaantonn:
It seems that your model is such that the case is not standard, I looked at the Volkswagen, the exact same case is one to one and the exterior is no different, even without a fan they are sold, where the radiator on the processor I don’t know).
[Android Head-Units] Aaantonn:
Explain normally what problems you have with the volume? I put all the updates and everything is fine, once I just had to disconnect from the network for a full reboot. Maybe I have problems with the volume, but I did not know)
[Android Head-Units] And-S:
From my observations:

The volume on our devices is not fully unified with the Android system volume, and for this reason, many third-party programs (not all) cannot control the volume.
[Android Head-Units] Astralech:
I have an S7, I just wrote that Teyes did something for more efficient cooling for a higher price.
[Android Head-Units] Aaantonn:
what does the name S7 have to do with this? You have a different device with a different case and, judging by the photo, even a circuit. What your manufacturer wrote has nothing to do with the system described in this article. I don't understand what all of you who bought Tiais are doing on this forum?)) People buy what suits them for the price, and here is your device? In any case, it's better to buy an average S4 device and an average power amplifier, then you won't need cooling at all, and the sound will be twice as clean and louder.People take this device because they consider it impractical to take something more expensive in a non-standard car. I agree with them.
[Android Head-Units] CubaLibre78:
I need help…

I bought the Hizpo S4. After the speakers didn't work with the normal speakers (sound only comes through the cinch outputs), the seller advised me to do a factory reset. Now I still have no sound via the speaker outputs and the soft-touch bar no longer works. No change even after updating the firmware and MCU (from Autofather.com). Does anyone have a solution?

[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
After you do factory reset you loose all physical button control, canbus/factory and user settings, except for the home and return button on the screen.

Buttons you need to set again with going into carsettings app/factory 8888 ok.

You use canbus?, what car...

Speakers are going with my unit with the power plug to the car speakers....maybe you have a not compatible plug for your car?, wrongly wired for your car plug?

The pin configuration is shown on the Ebay page you shared.

If all checked and okay wired and not working....don't have a clue.
[Android Head-Units] Astralech:
I have ours (Ossuret S7) and I'm on the right forum, and with this I replied to your statement that also Teyes are the same as most manufacturers. As you can see (photo added) they also do more for more money.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
He shared the cooling and has a S7 himself, but agree that this thread is not to compare units and how wonderful they are compared to ours, my S8 not running hot, sounds great, deep bass, no crashes, so why spend extra money for solutions you don't need.

The biggest problem with heat is the dashboard itself, if heat stays inside there around the HU, no matter what cooling solution you have in the HU it will get warm...
[Android Head-Units] marioti:
What car do you have?

Maybe you have separate original amplifier? If so, try to unplug the battery for couple minute,
[Android Head-Units] CubaLibre78:
Thanks for Your answer. I've already looked under Carsetting / Factory with 8888, but I can't find the right menu item for setting the buttons.

I have a Volkswagen Transporter T4 and the radio does not work via CAN. Before that, a simple 1 DIN radio from Kenwood was installed.

The loudspeakers are connected via the ISO connector. It also works perfectly with the old radio. I have already tested this.

Amplifier and all speakers are no longer factory and have been retrofitted.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
You talking about the home, return, volume up/down......right?

In my car I need to go to factorysetting (8888+ok) and then panel key study, no 3, select the key on the screen and then hold the physical/mechanical key/ button for few seconds on your unit...you get a green square, do all and save.

But don't know your unit, if that are mechanical buttons or touch software buttons...

I cant remember the function of touch learning button, no.2,, but you can try both..I thought I used that in an earlier version of Firmware to make buttons works again, but in latest I used panel key study.

My unit is a S8 with Opel front that match my dashboard with mechanical buttons around it ..

About the ISO plug, check if the supplied one with the unit matches that, on your linked Ebay there is a wiring specification...of the plug you stick in your unit...so the wires on other side you put in your ISO plug must correspond to that, but imaging you know that already ...

I have totally different plug, don't know if the power cable they supplied is an ISO connector that matches yours .

Other then that I don't know....contact supplier again, maybe defected unit ..
[Android Head-Units] Elrathias:
Alot of cars today have built in amplifiers, loudness setting is sometimes an alias for canbus-controll of the amplifiers loudness setting.

And sometimes for the built in amps loudness setting, aka just use the damn dsp lol.
[Android Head-Units] Elrathias:
Late to the discussion, what exactly have you ordered? What harness was included? Are there any loose wires?
[Android Head-Units] CubaLibre78:
8888/2 worked for me. Big thanks for that!

I will check the speaker assignment on the device. I will report. If need be I will install an amplifier for the loudspeakers.

In any case, thanks so far for the help.

I have one last question. How can I reactivate the weather app?
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
What I know about that....instruction where to connect to wifi and push the weather symbol on the screen...also that you needed to rename your wifi hotspot, but I managed to activate it without that renaming.

This was the instruction:

After you update everything, we also need to enable the Weather APK, please connect your cell phone wifi hotspot name as FYQP5QRG and YOU connect the player wifi to your cell phone hotspot, and then it will die Weather - Activate APK. If you are using an iPhone, please don't connect your iPhone to our player via Bluetooth before you enable Weather APK. This is very important. After enabling the Weather APK, you can connect your iPhone normally via Bluetooth.

Another thing, on first page on this thread you have a link to the firmware, you find information there....or the newly found webste https://autofather.com/

Here you can also find handfull information.
[Android Head-Units] buggme:
I have been following this forum for a couple of weeks now.

My unit has 4G LTE (or is listed as).

It see my Sim card and even shows AT&T. I tested with different APN, reboot, factory reset after messing around in Factory 4455.. and I still have no cell service bars.

It only shows Emergency calls only.

I have even updated the firmware and MCC. Went to the AT&T store and swapped out the Sim cards for the newer one. Drove over close to an tower. Tried 3 different Sim cards. All work in my tablets/phone. With no luck.

Any special settings I'm missing.

On a different note. I'm using the stock Launcher. But my GPS speeds are in km/h. Dose anyone know how to change it to us/Mph. Or have stock Launcher with mph.

Did you connect the right antenna to the 4g nub?
[Android Head-Units] Elrathias:
Have you enabled developer mode and usb debugging on device?
[Android Head-Units] Elrathias:
I think its under car settings => reverse camera=> mute
[Android Head-Units] :

[Android Head-Units] simetra1:
Yes
[Android Head-Units] buggme:
Yes. The one that came with it . And a 2nd one to test that I know works.
[Android Head-Units] Elrathias:
Didnt you get two antennas in the box?
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
@Dekdek1 @Clandaries @Clyde72 @Aaantonn

Received my DAB+ dongle, works totally fine with DAB Z, reception good, maximum green bars, classified as best reception, and all the channels from my area/ country and some of neighbour countries, around 100+ channels, not living close to my country border to have even more.

Now the two USB ports are used, recording front cam and DAB+ and no voltage problems notable, I'm using almost the maximum capabilities of this HU, including can bus and all buttons on steering wheel working, headlight works automatically in my car, it dims screen and put lights on of the buttons of this HU, in my picked colour.

DAB Z works like the FM radio, it keeps running in background when using other app like navigation, have it integrated in my Agama launcher.

Best thing, can cold start unit to home screen, my Agama launcher, and DAB Z starts in background and playing, this was the most annoying with FM radio or missed the setting for that, it always went to the screen of the FM app when I didn't close the in the background running FM radio app before taking car key out of the ignition switch.

Must say I also fitted a shark fin antenna, combined GPS, DAB+ and 12V amplified FM, GPS fix in 15 seconds and Agama shows 20 tot 25 satellites, accuracy 2 meters in GPS test app.

So really don't understand why @Clandaries had all this problems he wrote in several replies on this thread, this unit rocks, never had in 4 months a crash of the firmware, CPU temperatures depends on how cold/warm my car is, but stable between 35 to 50 degrees.

More then happy, all I wanted is achieved with this HU, I'm going to take a rest now and enjoy it :cool::ROFLMAO:
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Thx for the update, will still measure the ports though... Enjoy the music!
[Android Head-Units] Clandaries:
I have resettet the head unit and will test if it just was a failure.

Thanks for the update.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
And my experience, only install one DAB+ app, like DAB Z, for instance when you install two DAB apps and one is active and other one is running in the background is not the way, it gave me a conflict.

These DAB apps auto start/ running in the background, at least the ones I had installed.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
You can not because there is no known Win driver for the device. ADB was allready discussed ages ago. Why don't newbies here never read the complete thread when they land 🤔?
[Android Head-Units] Aaantonn:
Я рад, что у вас есть охлаждение, но у Тиаса в том же корпусе, что и у меня и у большинства других людей нет того, что вы положили на фото, у него такой же корпус 1-1, не надо людям сказки рассказывать.

Can I have the name of what you bought or a link? I wonder what kind of antenna and adapter.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Of course,

Bought on Ali******

Antenna, Superbat Car Roof Top Shark Fin Antenna, this antenna is very well build, not like the cheaper ones you can buy on Ali******, be sure your roof is flat, so not curverd where you fit the anttenna.

DAB+ Dongle, SNRG DAB UDB Adapter, type DAB+ 009S.

DAB+ app that comes with this Dongle is limited in the settings, didn't installed that, I'm using DAB Z.

Sorry,my ali***** app can't copy the links or webpages somehow, so you need to search them.
[Android Head-Units] buggme:
One has lte sma connector and GPS connector.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Quite some extra installation but must be way better reception than a front window antenna thingie...
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Yes...reception is really good, but indeed some work to mount it..only for the technical people 😉, lucky with my car regarding mounting the cables.

This sharkfin cost 60 to 70 euro on Ali...but could buy it with discount in a weekend deal or something. This one is really well build, not like the 20 to 30 euro ones that look almost simular...

BTW did not test the front window DAB antenna.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Can't be the best, on the inside off a surface getting all wind sheer & turbulence fully head on. I totally forgot about antenna placement/quality when Clanderies reported about bad DAB+ reception. May be more important than power...
[Android Head-Units] Clandaries:
Tried those window antennas one time but the reception was very poor.

Then i bought a Sharkfin from Bad Blankenburg that was much better.

But then we bought the new Swift Sport for my wife and the SLDA from Bosch had DAB+ and the OEM antenna from Suzuki was so good that we ordered one für my Swift Sport NZ (ZC32S) and for my moms Vitara LY.

Now i have 2 weeks vacation and will test the Hizpo S8 and the CC3 to see which one is better.

But i recommend a roof antenna for DAB+. The most of the time those window antennas are porely soldered.

There is a video on YouTube that shows how it can be fixed.

Have a nice day :)
