Hey all, I'm new here and tried to find resolution for my issue but failed.

I have fresh S9008P with 8 cores, 128G ram and 8G memory.

Connected it to my Outlander 2 with rockford frosgate using canbus. Joined AMP DET and AMP CON wires.

And i have sound on my speakers only for 5-15 seconds after complete reboot.

Then complete silence.

Have anyone had similar issue?

System: QF001.20240119.125814_V2.95_02

MCU: QF05.V02.03.20240106.002121

maybe best option is just to return that unit and take something better? Is there any? :)

---EDIT---Fixed---

So Joining AMP DET wire with Red Power ACC kable done the trick. So not a S9008P issue but car specific connection.

Hey,

I recently bought an S5 unit, specifically shaped to fit in my Astra H. I just plugged it in, plug and play. It worked fine for around a week and now its acting up.

Sometimes it works perfectly but other times, I get in the car and start driving, when it boots the sound gets stuck on MAX and turning the volume knob does NOTHING.

If I try to play and stop a few times then the song plays but literally NO AUDIO at all.

I contacted the seller and they advised me to use code "225588", didn't help.

They sent me the "update.zip" and the "mcu.bin" to swap. Didn't help.

Anyone?... Please?
[Android Head-Units] ScorpionSX:
I had (have..?) similar problem with volume on my S5 unit.

I have one for Ford Focus and my steering wheel controls is acting up when I'm adjusting the volume, or even doing fwd/rew. I press the button only once, but it acts like I'm holding it, so naturally, it gets the volume super-high, or completely mute, and so on. Or, at first try it does nothing, I have to "wake it up" by adjusting the volume on the unit itself, then the controls are working again.

At first, I thought this might be a bug in FW, but I tried 3 different version and had the same results. Now I'm trying to downgrade the MCU, from QF05 to QF03, which so far seems to be ok.

Tbh, I have no idea if the MCU or the FW is (and how) tied to the steering wheel controls, but other than the actual controls being faulty (which still may be an option!), I don't see what else might be the problem. I noticed this behavior after updating the MCU and FW to the latest versions, so naturally the downgrade is a logical step for me.

There is a link to a MEGA folder somewhere in the firmware thread for K706, you can find the QF03 MCU.bin file there as well as some earlier FW. I'm currently using the combination of QF03 MCU and QF001.20240112.001357_v2.93_02 firmware. So far, so good. I have a trip planned tomorrow, so I'll see how the steering wheel controls will act on a longer drive.

Hi all,

Question, why do all the firmwares have the same size and file dates 2009?

I have a S6, which sounded great but had BT problems. I contacted the seller and they

send me jitu2firmware20240111, which sounds awful.

Anyone have the same issues? And maybe a fix???

[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
S8, not fitted but bench testing and waiting until I find find better launcher. MBUX type if anyone has.

After going through some options, settings 'faults'? I've discovered a more serious issue with external mic. I've read dozens of threads about mic issues. Not sure if all of them, it seems every half dozen posts there is another one. So my concern. After a few tests i decided the crap sound quality was due to crap external mic. After trying a much better one with no difference it seems its not actually working at all. The only sound input is coming via the internal mic only. Which is awful.

I contacted the seller - who suggested that as I have one of the best units available anywhere :ROFLMAO:

:ROFLMAO: on paper maybe, I need to jst reset it. (windows i.t. support favorite) Yeah right.

Anyway, still no input whatsoever via external. Checked everything, pins, wires, plug etc. So thinking mic's could be wired in paralell I disconected the internal. Nothing. Incase they're in series I then shorted pins of internal. Nothing again. Still no sound at all via any external mic. So what was it?

I tried was attaching a jack socket to the internal disconnected pins. With 3 mics (external type) I have, still nothing. But the internal circuit was meant for a very low power cheap electret. Not a condenser I believe the externals use. So I've ordered a low power external type electret and see what that does.

But I dont think its simple hardware fault as its too well made. PCB is beautiful despite being chinese.

I think it has to be a hidden software switch. Nothing in settings anywhere though.

As soon as I get the new mic I'll report back.
[Android Head-Units] The-Doc:
You didn't read this thread, did you?

The internal mic is crap, and always in use, even with the external mic connected.

Either disconnect the internal mic or disable it by way of the ribbon cable.

[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
I've read all this thread and many others.

Did you even read what I wrote ?

But just for you - summary.

Yes internal mic crap.

External mic does not work

(even with internal disconected)

Hope this helps.
[Android Head-Units] The-Doc:
Yes, I read what you wrote. You wrote that you were attempting possible fixes that could only work if your head unit was built differently to all the others.

Hope this helps.
[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
I am posting to ask and share with others what I have learned. If you cant do the same why bother posting. Being condesending with a snippet of knowledge you read somewhere doesnt help.

From your snarky comments you come accross as trying to be difficult pedantic or you just have a poor grasp of English.

Of course all these units are built differently. Did you not know ?

From software to hardware. And, even with the same platform they are built using different hardware chips for audio, radio etc.

For this particular platform, therefore this thread, and program independant very few if any other posts have mentioned or confirmed if the external mic does not work? (and possibly why they nearly all have a sound problem). That was my point ! Perhaps you could confirm this with your own unit - if you have one.
[Android Head-Units] The-Doc:
I have two S8 units. Both have had their internal mics disconnected.

I didn't attempt to short any pins as you did. Maybe that's why your external mics don't work. Maybe you blew something, who knows, but after reading this thread, I bypassed the internal mics on both of my head units, and both of them have working external mics.

I'm a measure twice, cut once kinda guy. I like to read everything before attempting a fix, or even go to the trouble of reverse engineering something to see how it works. I'd never start shorting pins, without knowing why I'm doing it, but you do you and I'll do me, and hopefully you'll find a fix for your mic problem.
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
These units are designed to use non-external amplified electred microphones.

By implementing the Mic fix (we told you how to do it) disabled the internal Mic (very bad) and using an external Mic, it must work.

The external Mic supplied with these units works "well" (relative to how good a Mic of this type can be, certainly not the top on the market, but...)

If it doesn't work for you, probably have a problem in the Mic section of your unit's PCB.

Short the 2 pins on the Mic...you just don't have to do it.
[Android Head-Units] aux99:
I acquired a S6 unit with a 360° rotatable screen which fits very nice in my Ducato with the screen rotated to portrait, but the content does not switch accordingly.

I tried a switcher from the Play store as I couldn't get to te settings in the device, but that totally ruins the screen and touch coordination.

Anybody found a solution for this
[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
Thank you, if you read my first post that is exactly what I did.

First disconected (mic removed from pcb), second joining the two tracks together. Both cases no sound input at all. I've 2 or 3 different mic's. Searched forums high & low for info on possible software switch. But nothing.

Tested by ringing friends via bluetooth. And also using a couple of different sound recorder apps.

Def' no input from external mic input.

[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
In this case I'm leaning towards the fact that the Mic line input to the PCB is faulty...maybe also check whether the connection of the wires/jack of the external Mic, to the appropriate connector on the radio, is all ok.

B connector of 20 pins, Mic pins 19 and 20.
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
It is not possible.
[Android Head-Units] Mr.TT_NZ:
@cleverdicky

The external mic connector is wired directly in parallel with the internal mic so if you short the tracks you are also shorting the external mic connector.

If you wish to disable the internal mic and use an external one you can either:

1. Desolder the internal mic, being careful NOT to short across the tracks with any solder splashes (this is what I do, and I put the little capsule into a plastic bag which I tape to the back of the panel in case I'd want to put it back sometime).

OR

2. Mask the traces on the ribbon flex as described by others in the threads using tape. I'm a little reluctant to put tape on the flex as I have known some flexes to be rather delicate however it may not matter if you never want to re-instate the internal mic.

Note that much of the poor sound from the internal is due to how it sits in the front panel with a cavity in front of it.

BTW I'm a (retired) electronics tech.

Hi,

System: QF001.20240119.125814_V2.95_02

MCU: QF03.V01.06.20230814.002121

I'm using the digital out, the sound is awful, way to much bass. When I try to adjust the EQ

by copying the rock settings to user the whole sounds changes to tinny. Is there any updates

to fix this?
[Android Head-Units] cleverdicky:
The ine in to the pcb is fine.

I only tried short internal mic pins after getting no input from external mic after disconecting them. In case they were wired in series ??

Circuit on the pcb is too small to follow, so I cant check it.

I will put the original internal back 1st to be sure its still working. Then Im thinking of ordering a amplified electret mic (aviation type) and wire that to the internal mic pins but extend it outside.

Either the external is shagged or just set too low. For me anyway.

Not happy ! 😞
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
Amplified electret Mic:

it's not good, the PCB has the circuit for amplified Mic on board.

You must NEVER short circuit the 2 pins of the Mic (Signal to Ground). If you have done so, you may have damaged the Mic circuit on the PCB...

So:

- try soldering the original internal Mic onto the PCB again so you can find out if it "works" and hasn't damaged anything.

- if ok, run "Mic hardware fix" (see link for info, then either desolder the internal Mic or insulating tape on the flat cable, pins 1 and 2) so you can disable the internal Mic (as we wrote to you, it is connected in parallel to the external Mic, the Chinese had a terrible idea to do this).

https://forum.xda-developers.com/search/64265199/?q=desolder++mic&t=post&c[thread]=4525675&o=relevance

If it still doesn't work...I think probably something in your main PCB, regarding Mic, is not ok.

----------------------

EDIT:

in any case, even with the External Mic connected and functioning, in order to interact with him, the volume of the music in the background must be VERY low, at 0 (zero), otherwise the external Mic will not be able to hear your voice.

And

the optimal position of the external Mic in your car also determines the best or worst voice reception sensitivity.

[Android Head-Units] TanmayTzara:
Thanks for letting me know! I have set AppSwitcherStarter as navigation app, disabled log watching in main AppSwitcher, set unit to open navigation when starting, rebooted, however first 2 clicks on my steering wheel the Ossuret switcher reacts and only later the switcher menu is displayed. I probably could sit down with laptop and run commands via abd to give the AppSwitcher necessary permissions, but what did I do wrong with the navigation option?

Thanks a lot!
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
What does you mean with "the ossuret switcher reacts"?

If you push the SWC button which is mapped to the navigation app, only the navigation app should start.

How is your SWC connected to the head unit? Resistance matrix? Which app are you using to define the functions of the SWC?
[Android Head-Units] TanmayTzara:
By ossuret switcher I mean the default functionality of MODE key.

However, now I understand my mistake, I need to change the MODE button to "navigation". This explains why the first 2 clicks the app switcher is invisible, the third option in default switcher is the navigation which activates the AppSwitcher.

I have a CAN bus adapter, Ford Mondeo MK4.
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
That's correct. So the mode button should only start the navigation app which is AppSwitcherStarter.

Let me know if it works after you made changed the mode button to a nav button.

[Android Head-Units] Deanholmes:
I share four launchers of the firmware 20231130_v3.74
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
With these units Sx as default MODE button in the steering wheel buttons opens Navi app only on the third click (for example, this happens with BMW cars, but I think also with other brands, and buttons on the steering wheel managed via canbus radio decoder).

It is not possible to change this, MODE button CANNOT be mapped exclusively to launch Navi app, and therefore it is not possible to use directly, with a single click in MODE button, as you have designed, your AppSwitcherStarter (unfortunately, I would have liked to try it) .

Can this problem be solved somehow?
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
On most head units it's not possible to redefine the SWC buttons but I think on this head unit it's possible. Not via the prominent SWC app but in the CAN settings.

In every case it's possible to map the buttons if your SWC is directly connected to the head unit. That's the case if the SWC is only a simple resistance matrix.

I found this hint:

[...]

Hy on car app there is original SWC config there you can assign one button for GPS also Navi. In Navi settings make Appswitcherstarter as Navi app

[...]

unfortunately without further description or screenshots. Maybe some experts here can provide further details.
[Android Head-Units] Krystlas:
Hello, after the last few updates, my radio restarts every time I press the ignition, is there any way to do it without going back to the older firmware? Back in January, the radio was waking up normally. Now I have firmware 20231130 v3.74
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
No, at least for BMW canbus, it is NOT possible to assign different functions to the steering wheel buttons from the stock ones, and MODE button behaves as expected, so to run Navi app you have to click 3 times.

Perhaps for cars without canbus, with old resistive control, it is possible to adequately map Navi app via SWC app...
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
@PrinceLc You somehow managed that for VW canbus
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
For BMW (which I know) it seems impossible to do it, for VW I don't know.

I was able to remote adb into the head unit, but everything i can find is that agama is setup as the home launcher.

when I send cmd shortcut get-default-launcher I receive

Launcher: Componentinfo{altergames.carlauncher/altergames.carlauncher.MainActivity}

Success

But still no luck in actually making it the home screen, am I missing something by chance?
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
With that app (which is specific to the Canbus section) with BMW cars you can ONLY manage the touch buttons in the bar on the left of the radio, and it has no effect on those on the steering wheel.

These are fixed and cannot be modified in the OEM functions.

BMW canbus is MUCH more complicated to decode than VW, Opel,etc.
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
Many have written that with the latest 2024 firmware, with the transition to FAKE Android 13, it is no longer possible to always set an external launcher, but only the stock launchers.

Real???? I do not know.

Personally, I'm stuck with the October 2023 firmware (which I've written several times is the most stable ever, and it was still FAKE Android 12) and I will probably never update again, after this many bugs were introduced and no benefits...
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
That means:

AppSwitcher can be used if you can remap the MODE key to navigation because

a) your SWC is a resistance matrix

b) your selected can type allows it

I don't think it depends on the complexity of the can protocol / signal because if it's possible to map finally to a dedicated function it would be easy to allow a selection of the function.

I've added this customization possibility to the Junsun V1 Pro head units across all can types.

It's hard to understand why it's not implemented as the missing documentsUI and the replacement of the standard notification bar with a menu without notifications.
[Android Head-Units] PrinceLc:
Yes i can change the keft button side of the steering wheel actions to complete different
[Android Head-Units] MauriBixio:
An alternative could be to remap the button responsible for launching voice commands.

Assign that button to launch your app ...but it is ONLY possible to do this if your app appears in the list of apps that can be managed with the radio's AI voice control.

But...you lose the intended function of that button, which is useful for my use...
[Android Head-Units] Slider1385:
Do you happen to have/know of the version you are using? I have no issues rolling it back if it's a stable release.
[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
True, that might be possible. Even better would be if the system apps could be modified so a deeper integration would be possible.

If they would allow to remap the SWC (incl. long press) and an additional mapping to every installed app, they would provide a reason to buy the device. But unfortunately they didn't realize that that would be an excellent selling point.

[Android Head-Units] TorstenH:
If SWC is realized via a resistance matrix and buttons learned, it works the following way:

The head unit tries to find the closest match, which must be below a threshold value, to find the function that should be executed.

Here is a concrete example with explanation:

The default threshold value is 20 (which gets multiplied by 3). In the shown example 60.

- the first check results in 45 (not part of the screenshot). The values gets considered as minAd in the subsequent checks.

- if the check (tempAd) is not below 60, it gets not considered.

- if the check is not below minAd, it gets also not considered.

- in our example the last check wins because tempAd is 2 and below all previous check and even below the first relatively good match with a value of 45.

The threshold value can be changed by setting

setprop persist.sys.study.key.ad.diff 20

20 is the default value if the property is not set. It might be an option to lower this value if the head unit executes the wrong function because resistance changed (due to humidity or temperature).
