I recently purchased a chinese stereo headunit for my vehicle to replace the oem one that was defective and i am surprisingly very happy with everything on it except there is one annoying item that I would like to remove. The unit is running android pure 4.4.2 and there is this microphone icon that is on every screen that you can touch and speak to. I assume that she is there to provide guidance to wherever you wish to go in the system by voice application. The issue is she speaks chinese only and i have not found a way to disable her or remove her. i wish to remove her completely or at least put her away. Is there anything that you guys and gals out there may know that could help me? Anyuthing useful would be greatly appreciated. I am new to the forum and to android so pardon the "nube" please. lol

Hi there
the company that i work are developing an android based eco drive system. and i have been asked to do some research on it
the first obsticle we will face is actually connecting the device to the can bus. I have found a bluetooth however, im wondering wether this will work and wether there is a better way this can work
the system will have to work on almost any android device this is why i believe that the bluetooth system will be the best
also can any one direct me to a half decent Android dev site. i am a complete beginner with android development and really have no clue where to start and google is being proper vague
i hope someone can help :-S

Hey,
I have worked quite a bit with CANbus and I am aware that there are some good Bluetooth based solutions for linking to the vehicle.
Be aware though that CANbus is hit and miss with data and it is completely dependant on the manufacture what data is exposed to the CANbus, so certain vehicles may not have all the data you require.
As for Android development, best place to get started is the Androids own Reference, examples. I would post a link but I am new here, so just google Android Development and it'll be the top result.
Other than that I can only suggest googling/youtubing tutorials like with any other development.
Hey guys, I'm not new to rooting as I've done many devices, but I have to say the project I have now seems impossible. ...
I have and Android double din radio that I purchased of of Ebay, it says it is running android 4.4.4 jelly bean...It has so many restrictions, I can't access bluetooth settings/but will connect to any cellphone with no problems. ..and the USB access is very limited as the manufacturer seems to have hidden these features to make more profit on THERE OWN OBDII sacanners and tv box etc that you HAVE to purchase from them ONLY!, or those features WILL NOT work....
I love the fact that I have android in my car but this limited access is very annoying.
ANY help would be appropriated, thanx!

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and it's difficult to direct you towards a specific thread since you give so few details about your device but I suggest that you ask your question with all relevant details in the dedicated "Android Auto" Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/, maybe in the "Android Head Units" subforum there at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you.
Good luck!
got it!
I did end up rooting it!...I used (Root Checker) and I am officially rooted...
But, I am still having a problem finding away to access the Bluetooth menu in settings/wireless & networks....
Any ideas?

Hello again.
On a traditional Android device, Bluetooth is typically an entry under "Network Connections" or a similarly named menu. As mentioned earlier we cannot provide technical support here on XDA Assist, but if you ask in the forums mentioned earlier, another member may be able to assist you.
Once again, good luck!

Hi,
I'm working on an Android Based Robot, and I have difficulties to find answer to my questions.
I would like to use a SoC (system on chip, basicly creating a device from the chip) with android to manage all the controle.
I'm wondering what are the constraintes and limitations for using the android system.
(for instance can I use all the services such as android voice recognition ? Is there any declaration/fee to use android as OS ?)
I have been looking online already but it seems I'm not using the right keywords.
And it seems really uneasy to contact people from android.
Do you have any idea where should I look ?
Also if you have experience/answer, I would be happy to hear it.
Best Regards;
Hi !
We appreciate your enthusiastic attitude but unfortunately there is not much help here on building devices , xda is about software development basically rather than hardware
Some hint can be found here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-university
https://www.xda-developers.com/xda-university-building-your-own-android-rom/
More help might come from Google and other enthusiasts
Good luck !
Thank you for your answer,
concerning android I will have a look to the custom builds tuto,
concerning the feature I will post specific questions for each topic.
I have a Eincar no name head unit. Does anyone know if the unit can stop muting when car in backing up? Is there a way around this? Can this be programed?
Hi there and welcome to assist,
Unfortunately there is nothing about your question/device on XDA forum. Try a Google search first or contact the manufacturer for stock firmware and flashing instructions.
You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums if you have any other questions.
Maybe some user can help you here: > Android Auto > Android Head Units or here > General discussion > Connected Car
Good luck
Hello, the model of my radio is from the manufacturer wondefoo and it is the one that brings the px6 processor with dsp and all the extras, my question is, the opening of the vehicle doors marks them wrong, that is, it does not detect open doors unless it has the lights on, and when you turn them on, it marks all the doors open for a moment, it happens the same when changing from high to low lights and vice versa, does anyone know how to solve this? It brings the simple brand can bus module and the car is a citroen c4, failing that, if it cannot be fixed, how can I deactivate the door screen so that the stroller is not constantly coming out every time I change the lights?
Please forgive my English as a translator.

You Have an HXD MTCD/E.
The issue might be can bus module type and/or Can Bus selection in factory settings.
I've requested a moderator to move this thread to MTCD Q&A, you might find answers from someone else with the same CAN bus - Car model. Have you searched the forums for your query
Search results for query: citroen c4
forum.xda-developers.com
Yes, I have looked for it and it seems that it has only happened to me, neither does the seller know anything about that, my car is a 2006 citroen c4 with all the extras, if you do not see a solution I would like to know how the door screen is deactivated , Thanks for everything.

I appreciate your help, it is very difficult for me to find information in this forum because everything is in English and I do not understand anything, I thank you for guiding me, I know that this is the most complete forum in this matter and we will surely find a solution thanks to you.
I have looked in other forums in Spanish but everything is very scattered, I think that the can bus module has an error and that is why this happens, but I do not know if it is possible to update this to fix it.
Please if this post is moved to MTCD ... put the link here. Cheers and thank you again.
