I won't even try with my limited linux skills as there are no recovery options + unit is not on a bench but allready built in. Bolted in that is, it is not in a dash frame, I can't slide it in and out in some minutes like the Pioneer unit before it.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
I forgot to mention I still do not have wifi antenna re connected though... (some day if I feel like dismantling center console again 🤔...)
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
In fact when you say minutes behind you mean behind what? Behind compared to car clock?

Just took a quick pic when taking the car for a little shopping at noon. After full start up initially showed 15:02, which is the time (and date) of the 0104 fw (see pic). I did not connect hotspot and FM stayed off when going to the store and back. Time (and date) synched quite quick while allready driving. I was in a hurry. 2 min off compared to my car and same time as my phone as usual.
[Android Head-Units] lacrimosa2k2:
and here is the next who buy one of these, i have the s7 6gb/128gb variant ot the unit, fast as hell, not comparable to my px5 unit. the 4g sim thing work like a charm.

but what the hell is this for a stupid launcher, no notifications and lot of useless batches.

i have a app that run in background, but show the status over a notification icon in the top bar, without this icon i dont know is it running, work it?

so i tried nova launcher, but dont get access to the radio and other system apps.

i hope someone can build a custom rom without this useless launcher and full access to the taskbar.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Hi, nova launcher can access the radio and system apps on newer firmware versions. And you can use a notification widget as workaround for the status bar.
[Android Head-Units] lacrimosa2k2:
thanks for your answer, so can you tell me how i can access the system apps on nova? i have the latest firmware installed (20230109) but nova was installed bevor update, hmm i will try reinstall it.

i have read from the app. master... but this thells me i need to get access via adb, so that i have never tried, i take a look tomorrow
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Yes understand,

Yours Wed Jan 4 22:02:23 CST 2023, shows 15:02.

Mine Mon Jan 9 19:05:54 CST 2023 shows 12:05.

Somehow both -7 hours. While I'm +7 hours CST, time zone +1 GMT

About my 4 minutes, after updating from12:05hr to actual time/date it was 4 minutes earlier in time on my HU unit, compared to time on my phone.

With automatic network & gps off and then on it first showed the right time and few seconds later -4 minutes, this with hotspot on, wifi connected.

Had problem somehow that the wrong GPS time I had overruled my network time.

Now it is all okay, HU unit and OEM boardcomputer display in my car shows the same time like phone does.

Tested radio with hotspot off during cold start, RDS doesn't seems to update the time, it's network (after 3 sec) or GPS (after 15-45 sec) on my HU.

Guys I have discovered 4 more secret codes so far! Haven’t looked into what they do yet but they appear to be various tools that could be useful. Currently looking for more codes.

111222 - Ylog (log different scenes)

Advanced settings has sysdump and debug tools (includes “modem to pc” settings)

789789 - screen with buttons that looks like shortcuts controls but don’t do anything. In the corner there’s a button that says “data print” opens an overlay to receive and forward data (appears to be canbus communication).

456456 - MMI test (tools to different hardware devices)

555666 - some kind of device info/ hardware check menu. It’s in Chinese (possibly same as 6655? see post below)
[Android Head-Units] jbo1:
And now a few more!

1122 / 2211 - both popup a bubble with chinese text. I thought they were the same at first but they have different characters. (They both have the word “log” in it)

6655 - opens up a screen that appears to be the same as 555666 but these are also in Chinese so I don’t know if there are differences. Notably when you enter this menu with either code it will record a snippet of audio from the mic and play it back.

4455 - engineer mode (lots of stuff in here to explore, includes adb shell)

5544 - gps stuff

1212 - notification that says “slog copied to unkown”

2121 - seems to just take you home

45645600 - download mcu file
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
How did you discover the codes?
[Android Head-Units] jbo1:
Just by trying a bunch of different codes and looking for patterns. Starting by looking at the codes we already knew I discovered they are all a repeating sequence of digits that are adjacent to each other on the keypad. Once you find a pattern there’s usually another code that uses the same pattern somewhere else on the keypad. If you actually type in the codes and look at the physical pattern they make you’ll see what I mean. For example 114477 is just the digits in the left column of the keypad going down. 336699 is the same pattern in the right column. And then some codes are just variations on top of that, like doing a code in reverse (which we already knew) as well as adding 00 to the end of some. This is how I discovered all the codes. Once I’d find one code Id try that same pattern in all places and variations. Simple as that! I’m sure there’s more patterns yet to be discovered so try different ideas out and see what you can find. With many people using these strategies I’m sure we can discover more! I may have even missed a few using the patterns of ones I found.
[Android Head-Units] entoto:
Thank you
[Android Head-Units] lefterisa3:
Thats very interesting. I was actually doing the same last night and managed to open some popups saying some chineese.

The only that concerns me when i do random codes is that we might enable or disable something in a Chinese menu...and with the support we have from the resellers not even God can help us...

Off course if we don't try we do nothing here..

Dont know i am very sceptical on that..
[Android Head-Units] jbo1:
I think the ones that popup Chinese just export some log file. At least the ones I posted. Not sure if yours was different.
[Android Head-Units] lefterisa3:
No... everything seems good for now.

In other platforms (FYT) there is some codes that if you enter deletes a file and the device pops up a red notification and doesn't boot..
[Android Head-Units] lacrimosa2k2:
Short question,

Have anyone a Mazda3 2004-2009?

I have the little Problem that in the Steering wheel the next / previus Buttons are swaped and the Mode Button that i must hold Long for switching the head Display information make a mute by Long press but i have a mute Button extra.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
You can change the steering wheel buttons inside the factory menu.
[Android Head-Units] lacrimosa2k2:
Can you Show me the way? I only found the Menü to Set the Touch buttons
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
Assume you bought this unit that matches your car, then just use the CarApp, SWC (steering wheel control).

If CarApp shows no SWC and only some text with no Canbus, then you need to set it right first.

What unit you actually have?

Learning touch buttons in factory settings is for the physical buttons on your unit.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Regarding the Google assistant problem I've deleted toppal voice and service app but that did not solve the problem. The voice match feature is still greyed out.
[Android Head-Units] lefterisa3:
Me too...

Trying everything.

I saw Google app didnt have all the system permissions on (show on top of other apps...ect) did that too.. no luck so far. And a finding ..The dsp rear speaker surround adjustment bar is not working
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
As you probably know in trying to crack the nut.

Here and there in configuration files and Voiceapp.ini, Toppal is set as the main VA...so Google VA needs to be set as the main Voice app, but also not a developer of firmware.

Hope you not brick your device in trying by trial and error :rolleyes:

Appreciate your efforts, personally believe that you need to set the default voice assistant by coding changing Toppal to GA and have the services that GA needs.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Toppal depends on TXZ Service which runs in the background for voice match. Google Assistant would need Speech Service for Google in stead running in the background for voice match to work. So there is the conflict.

Toppal gets automatically reinstalled when updating firmware btw. Found that when I did the 1216 fw update.
[Android Head-Units] Dezik:
When the car is connected, should the Canbus be visible in the Car app or do I have to select the car model by myself in the 8888 menu?
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
If you are sure you've connected over canbus you will have to select your car make and model first via factory menu (8888).
[Android Head-Units] tomdevries:
And what should you do if the exact model is not listed?? i drive a citroen c4 picasso, but that one is not listed in the factory menu car settings..?
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
I've managed to deactivate the internal microphone without desoldering it which I did not want. I've used ultra thin isolation tape on pin 1 and 2 of this ribbon cable connector. (You could also just cut through the two wires of the cable. A new one costs almost nothing.) Works perfectly. The external microphone becomes louder and clearer.

As always: do it on your own risk.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Tom, try a similar model or the model before. If I remember well I could also select 2003-2007 Golf in stead of the actial 2008-2012 Golf, both worked but possibly Golf Plus or Golf Sportsvan would also work. Citroen C4 also has several versions but should basically be the same base model. Just try...
[Android Head-Units] fefferico:
Do you guys know if it's possible to downgrade the firmware?

Dunno if it's just me but mine (v1.4-221216.1830) seems to reset many options I keep enabling.
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
Try to upgrade to the latest firmware (20230104) and check if solves the issues
[Android Head-Units] fefferico:
Thanks I thought mine was the latest, just saw it in the firmware thread. Thanks mate, I'll try asap

edit: nope, tried even latest version but the problem is still there

Video proof https://streamable.com/d82n3n

I know the version shown in the video it's different but it behaves the same as the new one
[Android Head-Units] Dezik:
Do settings return to factory settings after a software update?
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
There is an option to keep user data when upgrading
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
Send the video to seller and wait for a solution.

It doesn't seem difficult to solve, maybe in the next firmware...
[Android Head-Units] fefferico:
Already did in fact. I'm waiting news from the seller, I just hoped someone else experienced the same and found already a solution. Anyways as soon as the seller will tell me something new I'll try to give update on the thread

Thanks again
[Android Head-Units] DCB103:
do note that some have different experience with different canbus decoders, some have better options with a raise one especially on peugeot and citroen. but almost on all not all functions work flawless.
[Android Head-Units] fefferico:
Yeah I think that's the problem, being a custom device which should fit many models...

Mine works great, I'd just like to fix just 3 things, mainly:

1) change park aid sound, which is terribly annoying

2) increase park aid sensors distance, which activates way later than the original ones (when I'm too risky near the obstacle)

3) disable the rear camera view when the rear is inserted. I have no camera so "No signal" screen is just useless and distracting

The others are just minor problems I can live with
[Android Head-Units] DCB103:
the reverse you can switc off in the regular settings :-) the parking sensors is not working (also not on my citroen) but I installed a HR camera which I like more only need to install my DAB antenna rest is working
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
Excellent work!

Can you explain what kind of tape is that? I'm not sure what you mean. Maybe a photo or a link to the tape will help a lot.

Thanks to you and @lefterisa3 for solve the mic issue!
[Android Head-Units] CieploZimno:
Hi

I make an update if someone has the same problem :

I've put the canbus settings by selecting "raise" + a car which is very similar in architect to mine (selected vw Scirocco for an Eos) + update firmware and MCU + disconnected completly the HU from the internal bracket + reconnect and it seems that I don't have any battery drain since. I can't explain but it seems OK...

Also, I have disconnect the fan, and HU didn't exceed 60° Celsius while 10 apps update + BT music playing + Waze running.

I will test with a game in the future (just want to see if it will crash).
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Good morning from Germany,

The microphone signal is on pin 1 and 2 of that ribbon cable. You could just cut those two wires or isolate them at the connector. Normal isolation tape is too thick so just use some standard transparent sticky tape. It's a bit fiddly so i guess the easier way is to cut the wires. You can replace it if needed. 5 cables are 5 euros on Amazon.
[Android Head-Units] fefferico:
Really? Which one? I tried every single setting and I can't keep the radar without disabling just the video signal
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
If anyone is interested: I've found several indicates that only a maximum of 6 GB ram can be used by the firmware. Even if the device has 8 GB ram like mine. There is also a special power profile that detects benchmark apps and only allocate to them the full power. Otherwise the system resources are distributed more defensive. Overall there is a lot of fake in the firmware.

Also the whole firmware is a security nightmare. In fact it is a debug release which never should be used by costumers. So you should not use this device for security relevant tasks. It's an open barndoor for malware.

For me I'm ok with that. I've won the dispute on Ali because of the faked android version and got 2/3 refunded. But i think at the normal costs I would go for a FYT device now.
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
Thanks for the info!

Damn Chinese people, almost everything is fake haha.

I was thinking to buy another one for my second car if I was able to solve the mic issue, but according to this new information, probably I will purchase other model.

Back to the mic, the seller (Hizpo) has answer me this:

Remove the connecting flat cable between the machine main board and the lamp board

Plug in the external microphone and try to see if it is caused by the built-in microphone, or send the version information to see.

Don't know what cable is it...
[Android Head-Units] villemil:
Just find the cable and connector you can see on the photo on page 36 and either desolder pin 1 and 2 or put some tape between the connector and the cable to "disconnect" internal microphone.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
It is Chinese allright but the unit is less dissapointing than the Chinese tablet I bought some years back. Was more like fake 10" and buggy as hell. Ram also not accurate.

Thx for the insights. As I suspected security issues a.o. I decided I wanted the HU to turn fully off when leaving my car parked wherever. Now I certainly won't change that. As for the mic I'm thinking on soldering an 3,5" socket to the mic circuit board, leading it outside so I can connect the external mic without needing to connect the harness with all the rca's.

Damn, I should also have opened a claim on the fake android issue when I thought of doing it. Too late now...
[Android Head-Units] JP202:
I have a Hizpo S8 that the reverse camera port doesn't work, no signal, all settings match camera type, tried ntsc and ahd cameras. I thought it may be a problem with backcar app or in the firmware. I used this fw and mcu.

https://jitufirmware20230109.oss-eu-central-1.aliyuncs.com/update.zip

mcu:

https://jitu321077708mcu20230103.oss-eu-central-1.aliyuncs.com/mcu.bin

The Firmware for the system said no upgradeable files detected, I tried the mcu and it installed it. Now the camera still doesn't work, and the subwoofer output barely puts out a signal. Now both system and mcu says no files detected. The seller on ebay offers no advice or any updates of any sort. He said I could buy one of his cameras, was the only thing he offered. Is there a backcar apk anyone knows of online. I found one but it wasn't for the reverse camera.
[Android Head-Units] popamor:
Similar thing happened to me, no video on reverse. But after making sure that everything was correctly connected, I found out that the power line to the camera was loose and therefore no power was being sent to the camera giving me no signal. After I reconnected the power line correctly, it started working good. Just a thought.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
I had that problem too. Can't remember what exactly caused it. Be sure that there is really a camera signal on the input. Sometimes there is an issue with powering the reverse camera with aftermarket head units. If it still doesn't work make a factory reset and try all camera relevant settings again.
[Android Head-Units] blue_one:
Here you go mate:

Be gentle with the connector. They are very fragile and hard to replace.

I installed car launcher pro and and agama car launcher but still I can't find them in the launcher selection menu there are only the default car radio launchers
[Android Head-Units] Ccleaner63:
I have the S8 there may be a difference with yours, I use Agama and it works well

Thanks for the tips! I did it and now finally works the external mic and the voice is clear yeaaah.

By the way, I'm using my old Parrot ck3000 mic whose was already installed in my car with no problems.

The only thing left I have to do is install the Noctua fan and the radio will be finished.

Hi, I have a S8 UIS7862s, with QF001.20221126, MCU: QF01.V01.68.20221125.

I want to change AUX: AHD 1080P25 in this I can't :(

please help?
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
So desoldering the internal mic should also do the tric? As there are two solder islands connected to pin 1 & 2 of the ribbon connector. Not opened my unit yet...

I wonder if the Parrot mic is better quality. Still have one laying around...
[Android Head-Units] Tarfful:
Not necessary to desolder anything, just cover the pins 1 and 2 to the flat cable with tape.
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Thx, will have to look for fine masking tape then
[Android Head-Units] Ccleaner63:
in AUX only (NTSC - PAL - AHD720P25 - AHD720P30) There's no AHD1080P25

Someone can help me to change bootanimation ??
[Android Head-Units] aladin89:
Le problème c'est j ai créé le fichier sur usb mais j ai pas compris où je vais deplacer ce bootanimation dans le fichier système
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
English please.

If I'm correct there is a factory menu where you can import your boot animation on the HU. So insert the usb stick, go to that setting menu and import it.

Hello all,

I have samsung A32 and it's working nice.. However, pdf files are not working on it. I want to read books on my device, but it's not working.

What is a possible solution?
[Android Head-Units] Clyde72:
Hi, I am afraid you are in the wrong thread here. I can tell I personally use Xodo for reading pdf publications on tablet, phone etc
[Android Head-Units] x0101222:
You don´t need to touch anything in the files system.

Make your bootanimation.zip (if possible with boot animation factory) and place it in the following path in your USB:

QF\auto\bootanimation.zip

Insert the usb stick and the system will upload the file with a information message.

Reboot and it is done :)

check the video in the minute 3, it is all there.

I have an update to my situation, Auto update worked. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14b5vnqQvKjqF6h9hTzRTLCRMRTMIdlVy?usp=share_link

HIZPO_S5

You have to decompress files, copy QF and text image folders unopened to root on flash drive. Plug it in and wait. I tried it at first with just the QF folder when I was scrambling through update files when it wasn't updating. I now have dedicated subwoofer control, reason I wasn't getting a signal with just the mcu update. It also has amplifier on/off. Going to work on camera this weekend, hopefully without pulling unit apart. Only glitch, when I change stations subwoofer reduces until I touch volume up or down, goes right to where it is set at. I have a few more options in overall settings, and displays battery voltage on top of screen. DSP works great, system sounds awesome.
[Android Head-Units] theAtotheG:
Has anyone had the issue of the screen dying? It has gone completely black, though the unit is working. The touch screen seems to still be working, though you have no idea what you pressing.

I just opened my dispute. I reached out a couple weeks ago but haven’t gotten any response from the Hizpo Official Store on AliExpress.
[Android Head-Units] Meteordust:
What unit you have?

You tried to reinstall the software? beware mcu depends on your unit, s1-s4 or s5-s8, with Hizpo method in QF/auto/ folder on root USB stick?

Did you changed stuff, like bootanimation?, coz I had 3x a half screen when bootanimation started and also it stayed like that when it jumped to homescreen, but bootlogo before animation was okay.

But can also be that I have a little defected screen, after a few hours off it started normal again, like temperature related.
[Android Head-Units] isash:
Has anyone tried to strengthen, improve the WIFI antenna instead of 2 cm wiring?
[Android Head-Units] JP202:
@theAtotheG , try swiping across the top of your screen, then pressing screen 1 inch in between volume up and down buttons on the left of your screen. If yours don't have the same screen with those buttons, it's about 1.5 inches from the bottom, there should be a screen on and off button there when screen is lit. If not try the auto update, you don't have to do anything but power unit on and plug flashdrive in. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14b5vnqQvKjqF6h9hTzRTLCRMRTMIdlVy?usp=share_link

unzip all files. Go back and copy the QF and text folder unopened. Paste both in your flashdrive. For the mcu file on that link, I had to rename it to "mcu", it was Hizpo_5 or something similar. These are both just suggestions. Good luck
[Android Head-Units] JP202:
These files are for s5-8, not sure about s1-4, software will work on both, mcu may not
[Android Head-Units] DCB103:
yes no difference unfortunately
