Hi
I have recently purchased a Necvox ID-705 radio for my car. I have noticed that the radio features are very basic and decided to compare it to another ID-705 and found that my MCU ver is 1.1 while the other was ver 3.9. I also noticed that my radio does not have sub volume setting, sub frequency setting and the GPS is non responsive yet those features are available on the other radio. I have searched the net for days and spent countless hours trying to find out where I could get the MCU update but to no avail. I do not know if it's using windows or android software. I have contacted the agents that import the the radio and explained the issue to them only to be told that this is how the radio comes and are unwilling to help me further. If anyone has any bit of information that could help me resolve this issue I would be very very great full.
Thanks in advance

Afternoon all,
This seems an excellent place for a new XDA IIi owner to start things off! Please forgive me if I repeat anything or if I am posting in the wrong place, just let me know and I will gladly fix it.
I'm just at this stage trying to get used to the XDA and add value to it by means of software and customisation to the extent I did with my P900 and P910i which I have been using for the past 2 years. In some ways I'm finding it quite hard to get my head fully around the XDA IIi?! I actually started out with the IIs a couple of weeks ago but found it to be way too unstable and too much of a problem so I jumped over to the IIi. So far things have been better but I have a few "things" I would like to ask in the hope that someone can help me.
Erm.. where to start...
1. Ok, O2 branding, the O2 active stuff and the icon in the title bar. Can it be removed? Currently my O2 icon is just a blank whit square, it never displays properly and just makes the phone look, well, pants!
2. The headset supplied with the phone seems awful! I get lots of complaints about volume fluctuating. Does anyone else find this?
3. Can you actually just turn the phone off?? If so... how?
4. When listening to music, I cant put the phone into "sleep" mode, ie turn off the screen whilst still having the music play. Is there a way around this?
5. I use AAC music files too, I have Betaplayer which obvioulsy plays them but I cant make the phone recognise an AAC file and associate it with betaplayer... is this possible? Currently I have to open the player then open the file.
6. Firmware. Gulp.
I updated my P9xx's regularly, not without issue I suppose though! Do you guys recommend regular firmware updates?
Currently I have:
ROM Version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/04
Radio Version 1.00.00
Protocol Version 1337.39
ExtROM Version 1.10.124 WWE
Any advice on f/ware would be greatly appreciated. It can be such an ordeal but if its recommended I would like to do it really.
There are more things but maybe I should be quiet now and see if anyones got any comments!
Any help would be gratefully received and as soon as I get up to speed I will put back into this forum.
Thanks
Fronty.
1) The o2 branding software can easily be removed. I myself have wrtten a couple of replies to this sort of thing and so have others. If you do a search for "o2" "activeUI" "remove", you'll find the steps needed.
2) I've only used the headphones for using the phone once or twice apart from the first XDA I ever had. If you go to start > settings > system > Microphone AGC and enable the auto volume, this may help. Noone's complained about my voice being too quiet or fluctuations since I got an XDA2, never mind the 2i I have now.
3) If you tap the network signal strength, there is the option to "Turn on flight mode" - this is phone OFF. More indepth explanation of this is included in the manuals you should have with your phone. If not, I believe o2 do a .PDF you can download from www.o2.co.uk/xda
4) If you're using WMP10 then I know what you mean. On the XDA2 I used to be able to select the Contacts button as "screen off", but whenever I try this on WMP10 on the 2i it won't map the button. I prefer to use a third party program called Pocket Player 2 from Conduits (http://www.conduits.com/products/player/). It's fantastic, highly customisable and the only drawback is that it's not free. Well worth the money though. And you can turn off the screen and map other buttons during playback.
5) Can't help you on that one.
6) I always update mine once the official update from o2 comes out, though I must admit I've presently got one from the Australian o2 comparable i-Mate. It's a slightly more stable ROM but is sometimes tricky to install. There are instructions on these forums on doing it - I followed them myself. Currently there are NO official updates for you to upgrade to; you are on the most recent o2 ROM. You'll soon know when one exists, if not already from the http://www.my-xda.com/xda2i_soft.html page.
Hope this helps, please post back if you need further help.

Hi!
I have posted this message on another thread, but it's important so I create a special thread for it.
Indeed I received my Z5s yesterday and I have 1 week to find out if my WIFI issue is hardware or software. In the case of hardware, I need to send back my phone to china .
I received the phone rooted, so if I want to install the last update from nubia (1.30) I have different manipulation to do. Howevver, I am afraid that if I touch the rom, the seller can tell me "you changed the rom, before it was working so it's your fault. we don't give you back the money!".
So I am waiting he allows me to put back the official rom 1.30. By the way if anybody has a good tutorial (in english) about unroot and changing ROM, I would be very grateful
There is the description of my WIFI issue:
First (yesterday) I couldn't find any WIFI and then after a factory reset, I could find some wifi but not everything. By example in my laboratory, the general WIFI of the school appears (and is working) but not the wifi of my lab... Anyway I found out than others WIFI were missing too. (Maybe 15 were alright on 20).
Now (today), in my lab, I can't even find 1 WiFi! I have tried the factory reset and it still doesn't work. In the description of the last update (1.30), I found "6. 修复wifi小概率无法打开的问题 = Small probability can not open wifi fix problems".
It looks like my problem fix except that in my case it is not a small probability but it (almost) always happen...
So I need your expert opinion, do you think it is more probably hardware issue or software issue? Does any Z5s owner have this problem (sometimes or alway)? I've bought the phone in Eternal Team on Aliexpress, I don't know what is their custom ROM, did anyone buy the phone there and know what is the ROM ?
Thanks in advance for your help!!
Wifi issue
Nobody can help me ?
Hi there,
despite the issue, that my radio in disconnecting USB (incl. Wifi, randomly, especially when it is colder) - which I tried to fix by replacing the USB chip to a GL852G - I now have a new issue since some days:
Now, my radio also disconnects Wi-Fi randomly without turning on again, while USB itself is not interuppted.
That issue is very new to me.
I installed a newer MCU some days ago (3.13 and 3.17) as this fixed an issue with the Bluetooth App automatically opening at the bottom of the screen when making a phone call.
I did not went back to the previous MCU yet (which was a 3.04 I think), as I don't think the issue is related to this. After MCU upgrade, I didn't have the above mentioned issue since more than a week.
Anyone having a similiar or same issue?
Maybe anony can confirm, MCU > 3.x having a wifi issue?
Thanks a lot!
Christian
Hi Christian,
I had the same issue. In the beginning I was able to compensate the issue with an automation app. (If WLAN turns off -> Turn on) After some time I couldn't activate the WLAN at all without restarting the radio. At some point, I could not do that anymore. Then I looked for a working LTE-Stick, but quickly understood that there is NO working 4G-Stick. Only a few UMTS sticks work. Via XDA-Developer found out that there are 4G sticks that are recognized as USB-to-Ethernet devices. Then I bought the HUAWEI E3372 LTE Surfstick. However, this does not work out-of-the-box with the radio. After a lot of manual work and learning-by-doing (installing an unofficial firmware), I managed to make it work now. The only disadvantage is that I no longer have a hotspot for other devices in the car.
Best regards,
Michael

Hi Michael,
Appreciate your answer, many thanks.
I am running hal9k ROM. If you have more detailed instructions, it works be great if you could share them with me.
Meanwhile I am trying to get a replacement device, as it is still under warranty and was bought in uk.
Thank you!

Fellow suffer as well.
Any chance of a link or hint of a guide to modify the E3372 stick?
Modifying E3372 was a tough stuff, actually. A lot of try-and-error. At one point I even thought to have bricked the stick.
Anyway, I got all information from following thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an.../real-3g-4g-usb-modem-sticks-px5-px4-t3898344
On page 3, a link to a russian site is provided:
https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=883219&st=3620#entry66908061
I do not speak russian, so I used the DeepL Translator in order to translate everything.
To sum up, you need to install a modified webui und firmware which supports ethernet-over-usb (CDC) mode. The Versions I am using are:
E3272s-153_Update_22.491.09.00.00_M_AT_05.10
WebUI 17.100.17.00.143
https://www.lteforum.at/mobilfunk/firmware-versionen-hi-non-hilink-e3372h-inkl-mod.2691/ is a good source for downloading the files.

Thank you very much for your reply. Will let you know how I get on.
Hello
I can't turn on wifi.. and usb hub stop working..*
This problem happened after restart factory*
Please help me
Hi guys,
I have a Joying 10.1 inch head unit and and the GPS time and date is not correct, I have tried manually setting up the date on the settings and set the automatic on the settings but still won't update correctly. Has anyone experienced this? Is there a fix that you can suggest?
Unit: Joying 10.1 Sofia 3gr GTX MOD
I'm having the same issue with mine-emailed joying support and of course they weren't much help. It seems to have randomly started happening, then I did a full firmware flash and it still happens.
See this post from @IG_Vasilich : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...9a3-2018-04-22.3742482/page-119#post-84877441
修正 GPS 日期
Tried this on my Joying JY-UMS03N2 Intel unit, but the GPS date is still wrong. I guess the receiver itself needs updated firmware?
Also noticed in this thread that it may contain a Trojan, so will revert the C9 Server back if I can figure out how ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ing-rom-v9a3-2018-04-22.3742482/post-85024725
Anyone solved this yet?
Nobody has been able to solve this? Can anyone explain how this even happened? My headunit doesn't even connect to the Internet so my guess is that it was something preprogrammed.
Any word on a solution?
Hello,
the following annoying problem:
I connect via Bluetooth to my car (BMW - unfortunately already 5 years old) to listen to music via MP3. Playing and the connection work great.
However, the maximum number of the album is not displayed on the BMW display - but only 1/1. No matter how many songs an album has - it is always shown 1/1. I don't care - but BMW offers the opportunity to scroll through the album on the steering wheel, so that you can choose another song - or that you can jump forward/back - or jump to the next/previous album . Unfortunately, this is no longer possible.
I have already tried different music apps - unfortunately not a success.
I also played around with various options in the developer options - unfortunately not so far.
My BMW has installed the latest software - the latest several years ago - unfortunately there is no newer one
What could this be due to? Is anyone familiar with it? Maybe otherwise someone has the problem?
Many Thanks
Many greetings
George
With my P7P I luckily don't have these problems.
But in the past I had the exact same problems with my old OPPO Find X3 Pro and a Hyundai.
Back then the Hyundais Navigationsystem Software was updated to latest available version (Software still gets updates regularly) but that didn't solve the problem.
So I also tried to fix the problem with adjusting Bluetooth relevant settings in the developer options, without success.
What solved the problem for me in this case, was a firmware update of the OPPO X3 after some time. After months (I think the time frame was 3 - 4 months) of not working, suddenly the problem was gone after an oppo android update ^^
So now the problem on your side is, that you can't clearly find out whether the BMW Software is the reason for your problem due to the fact that the software is really really old.
That is the difference to my Hyundai problem in the past.
Hopefully any upcoming Pixel update will solve your problem
In the meantime I would suggest your to open a call at support.google.com. Maybe they have any additional hints.
Thank you ery much for your help.
Yes - I don't have an overly large hope that Google will fix it at some point - but still - I at least write Google support. Thank you for the tip - I could have come to it myself
