Navall has a sale on their PX5 unit for various cars,
http://navallstore.com/product/navall-eclipse-audi-a4-2002-2008-android-head-unit-model-2/
anyone have experience with this unit or their other units in the past?
I'm hoping to upgrade my RoadNavi unit with one of the newer models PX5/Intel with 2GB or RAM and am wondering if I should take a chance on this unit?

So my head unit ( Joying JY-UL135 ) stopped turning on. I went through various troubleshooting steps and the conclusion I and Joying support came to was that the coreboard has failed. They will send me a replacement one for a reasonable cost but I have to send the old one back direct to China which would bring the cost up to "ehhh" territory. And that assumes the package will get there and the deposit will be returned.
I have the original RK1388 1GB setup which was incredibly slow and disappointing. I asked Joying if it was possible to get a PX5 replacement because of how dissatisfied I've been with the unit. Joying told me that my unit was not compatible with the PX5 boards. I guess I was confused about the coreboard stuff, because I thought that RK1388 1GB board was the "PX3" that gets referred to here on the forums.
My questions are as follows:
* Is that correct that I cannot install an upgraded (more RAM specifically) board in the JY-UL135 unit? The PX5 boards are not compatible?
* Is there a place I can order coreboards domestically (US) to compare the price?
* Is there anything I can check/do with the coreboard to try and get it working again? I am very comfortable soldering, using a multimeter, etc. I've thought about using a heatgun to try and get the solder to reseat.
edit:
Update:
I had it confirmed on another forum that the PX5 RK1388 replacement boards are compatible with this specific head unit. It is the Joying-specific PX5 boards that are not compatible since they do not sell the appropriate type, and that is what Joying support meant by it wouldn't work.
Hello,
The screen went out on my unit, and i just bought the PX5 board about 3 months ago. I ordered a full new 4gb unit. So I can sell this px5 board. Its octocore/2gb ram version. 32gb memory and running android 6. Would like around $60 shipped. Thanks!
hello is this board still available ? Is this an full board including screen headers and such? Could you send me an Image of it ?
Good afternoon,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me please if the core board from this unit:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000132959961.html
would work and boot inside one of these:

i have the 1gb version of the one listed on ebay and am possibly able to buy the aliexpress one secondhand cheaper than buying a standalone coreboard.
Kind Regards

Yes, the PX3 board can be exchanged for a PX5 or even PX6 board

What are your criteria for choosing.
I want to run apple carplay on it and i need it to be somewhat reliable.
I had an old 2DIN xtrons unit with android that died and i don't think that big brands like Xtrrons/joying are much more reliable than others, but they have better cuatomer support.
I was looking for units with uis7862 chipset because i saw a lot of posts about them.I thought that 3-4gb of ram is enough for running carpaly around 2 years.
I was expecting good/bad feedback about these brands in general
All the FYT units come from the one factory, the seller defines any customisation usually via software so they all have the same FYT hardware reliability.
You gauge the support from the seller by looking at the Aliexpress reviews noting that they can be distorted.
Teyes probably have the best support but you pay for it in locked features and the highest price.
There are no Android 11 or 12 units, they are fake and Android 10.
If you want it for Carplay then you really only need a display unit not a fully functioning head unit. A lot cheaper and if it goes wrong buy another.

Avoid, buy a genuine apple carplay unit. These are not.
Refer genuine units here:
iOS - CarPlay - Available Models
Find out which car manufacturers currently offer, or are planning to introduce, models that support CarPlay.

Xtrons and joying are not real brands. They are resellers of various factories/manufacturers.
Good luck.

My car is from 2009 and i want to keep it for 2 more years.I don't think it's worth buying a genuine one that's around 1k second hand.

I agree. But if you insist on CarPlay or Android Auto and do not want to buy a 10.000+ euros/dollar car only for Carplay/AA, you better buy a cheap Android unit specifically designed for AA or CarPlay like a Podofo or a Carpuride (not FYT units).
The FYT units discussed here (7862/sc9853i and to lesser extend 8581) are high-performance units to be used as full Android units.
These Podofo and Carpuride units are low-performance units. They use more or less the same reverse-engineered Zlink/Carlink app, but are cheap.
And also for these units: Google and search Youtube.
I bricked my MTCE radio while mcu updating and now it doesn't work, buttons don't light up. Also i can't repair it by installing new MCU by st-link v2.
If It helps when i buy a new px5 or px6 coreboard? MCU is on this coreboard?
Cut losses and buy a superior FYT UIS7862 unit. See FYT forums.
Alternatively, you could send the unit to me and I can try recovery - no charge, only return freight.
Where to buy it? I search Google and nothing. It fits in citroen DS3?
Where are you from? Maybe it is a good option to send it to you.

Cheaper than buying a SOM and mainboard, but understand if you don't.
