Not heard of them before, but it doesnt really matter - its MTCD so the most of the hardware and the ROM is the same as any other MTCD.

I d guess hold down power and reset, release reset, release power, but ask in the MTC forums to check.

Maybe someone can help me!!! I have exactly the same unit as LMarr. I think that this TMOTEC s..it was upgraded to 5.1.1 and before was 4.4.4 because there's so many problems with it. For example, I cannot make volume louder or reverse, silence. There's some settings for KNOB MODE and whatever settings I choose, knob volume is not acting properly, meaning, if I turn right, to increase volume, and left,to decrease volume. Or if I try to change knob led colors, it keep showing the same color, blue. If I try to set wheel buttons, there's no chance, they are already preset. Please help.

I cannot change the button LED colours...
I have no setting to do that...
Mine was born as a 5.1.1...
Who updated your unit from 4.4.4 to 5.1.1 ?

not all units support led color changing.. some have single colored leds specially those designed for specific car models..
If your car has Canbus, then you can not use the wheel study app.. your only bet to change the steering wheel controls is using MTCD-tools. search the forum

if your unit had android 4.4 then my guess is it is an MTCB and not an MTCD.. haven't seen any MTCD with 4.4

I have the exact same model in my passat. I have newest ROM from malaysk, ver. 11.5. It works fine. I didn't expected to be that good.
There is only one annoying thing. When I turn on ignition radio starts playing and is all good. After I start the car it loses the reception. I have to switch it off and on again manually by pressing power button. Then it comes back to normal and the radio is playing as it should. It happens only to radio, other music players working with no problem.
Does anybody have any idea what could be done to fix it?

Android 8 PX5 MTCE_LM_v2.88_1 for VW multiple problems - no vendor support

Hi Guys,
really need some help with this unit WG9018S i bought from Eunavi (don't buy from them). Bought on 11.11 for xmas via aliexpress, so can't dispute the purchase now.
1) GPS accelerator does not work. iGO says looking for satellites and Sygic sees the satellites and can turn in the cars direction, but does not follow the car on the map.
GPS Status tool says GPS Sensor available, but acceleratometer has malfunction. In built GPS Status shows the speed, sats locked, etc.
2) TMPS can see the sensors ID, voltage but not tyre pressure. (have tried multiple versions of software)
3) reverse camera only works for a few moments before screen goes blank.
4) permanent static noise from speakers. Noise changes e.g. has clicks, when menu items are scrolled or changed. noise is there for radio, SD, etc.
actually purchased Sygic and was using trial version of iGo - so both are/were fully legit packages.
Other comments, when i first installed, it cold booted every time car started. Now it picks up where it was. can't find a setting to switch back to cold booting.
enabling developer options, no menu shows up.
have tried a number of factory resets from the menu, but not convinced it has been fully reset.
Should i try to boot into recovery mode and delete cache, etc.? how to boot into recovery mode.
really appreciate some help. Cheers

wanted to give an update after >1000km.
1) GPS with Sygic, etc seems to randomly work for intermittent periods. I notice with the GPS Status tool, that 0/10-15 sats i.e. all grey when it doesn't work and a number green when it does work. Same in Sygic, all sats show as grey when not working and some as blue when working.
** google maps works in all instances on GPS only which also makes me wonder if android as something built in to limit 3rd party integration
2) Reverse camera flickers much more (when working) than WinCE HU. I note it works for between 30s - 3min in daylight i.e. no infrared and 10s - 30s at night when infrared is using.
I am wondering if there is an earthing problem in view of the reliability issues.

Have you tried other GPS apps ? There are 30 odd in the Playstore.

I didn't get any support from anyone so far, but in case someone else is having the same problems, here is what i can say so far.
3) Reverse Camera Failure
- changed MCU from MTCE_LM_v2.88_1 to MTCE_HA_v2.99 - seems to have solved this problem
Steps -
a) download from MTCD DMCU Yandex
b) save dmcu settings from factory settings screen (but also take screen shot copy of LM settings as dmcu.cfg does not seem to restore)
c) use about MCU Update
d) check factory settings and manually reset values - particularly CANBUS, BT Type, LCD Type, etc.
- need to manually remap display keys as well
* some settings appear to be correct but functionality doesn't work i.e. reverse camera settings. change the value apply and change it back *
1) GPS not locking
- changed system ROM from MTCE_LM_07-2018 to MTCE_HA_12-2018 - seems to have solved this problem
Steps -
a) download from MTCD SYSROM Yandex
b) backup existing apps/data
c) use about System Update (perform full format/erase)
d) reinstall / restore apps / data
2) TMPS was pairing problem i have solved by deflating type, but i still have problem every time the system starts,
it forgets that i have allowed the USB connection and i need to re-check the box.
Audio I am still working on.

Dasaita android 10.0 quirks

Hey all, so I wanna pick y’all’s brain.
Specifics: 2013 Honda Accord Sport sedan 6spd manual with the 2.4L
Head unit: Dasaita Android 10.0 head unit
So first off this thing was very plug and play and got pretty good reviews but it does have its quirks and funny enough it’s none with my iPhone. The quirks are with my car.
1.Both trip odometers reset after every key cycle. Same with the fuel mileage.
2. I can no longer turn off the green fuel mileage backlight on the cluster. It’s always active with driving.
3. The upper factory Honda screen still works with fuel mileage, and back up camera but will not display the clock.
4. My phone call/hang up buttons on my steering wheel no longer work. Not a huge deal as I have Siri.
If anyone has any insight to these issues and can point me in the right direction, whether it be a different canbus, or a specific setting in the head unit itself. Thanks in advance.

On #4 you need to remap in the SWC app.
can't help with the rest but sounds like canbus issues. I'm amazed it's interfering with all those builtin functions and displays in your car. I'd contact the seller, doesn't sound right.

The SWC app? Sorry I’m a little new to android as I’ve been an iPhone/Apple guy since smart phones came to be. I agree that it’s a canbus issue. I bought the unit off Amazon and have tried the dasaita customer service but responses have been slow. It may be worth a call to Amazon anyway.

Amazon won't help unless you want to return it.
Did you get a canbus specific for your car? if it's interfering that much you may want to just disconnect the canbus and see what it does.
The SWC(Steering Wheel Control) App is a pre-installed app on most of these units that lets you remap your SWC to functions in the unit. Usually the icon looks like a Steering wheel. you go in hold a SWC button then pick an action on the screen.

For setting the steering wheel controls, I have posted a tutorial:
How to reassign steering wheel keys - instructional
This post is not asking how to assign steering wheel keys, it is intended to be an instructional post to maybe help some of you who have found that you cannot change your steering wheel key assignments using the WheelKey Study app on your MTCD/E...
forum.xda-developers.com
Regarding the other issues, I would suggest completely disconnecting the head unit and see if you still have the other issues with your car. There's a few other suggestions I can offer to you if indeed you do not observe the issues you describe.
Please access factory settings (Settings.... Car... Factory settings... password: 126.... Select Canbus option at the top of the screen. Please take a picture of that screen and post picture or post the settings you see on that screen.
Going to ask moderator to move this thread to MTCD Android Head Units Q&A as your head unit is MTCD and there are others in that forum that might be able to offer additional assistance.

Do you have the can bus box assigned to the correct vehicle?
Go into your factory settings and make sure that the box is actually set for YOUR vehicle. There should be a couple of different software versions from different authors you can try. I have a Jeep and there are 3 different software versions for my jeep, and only one of them actually works properly.

The Canbus settings *should* have been configured correctly by Dasaita if the head unit they purchased was not a universal system but specific to their Honda. Although it is possible the settings could have been fiddled with after installation which may have introduced the anomalies they described. That's likely why @jlbooth suggested disconnecting the head unit to see if the anomalies stop and things work as normal.
It is probably not such a good idea to blindly try every possible Honda configuration or possibly them trying the Jeep configuration on their Honda.

Question Android upgrade Gps problems need help please

Hi guys I'm new on here, i do apologise if i have posted on the wrong area , i have a Chinese 10.1 inch android SPRD head unit with android 10 installed. I have fallen out with the guy i bought it off as there was a lot of miss advertisements on advert which did not match when i got the unit.
However thats another story and wont get into it, what i want to know and if anyone can help me i will really appreciate it as iv tried everything and getting no where. So here are my problems :-
1, Upgrading android 10 to android 11.. there seems to be no menu that has the upgrade option, so how can i upgrade to android 11 or twelve? And How do i upgrade mcu version?
2, im having problems with GPS when car is on i loose gps signal to like half of one bar.. when car/ignition is turned off GPS comes alive and get good signal and catches satellites.. what does this happen? Whats the solution?
3, i cant change the icons on home screen, cant change/add on tool bar, no bluetooth button to turn on and off on bar on top of screen.. but blue tooth is there works fine when connecting phone and bluetooth icon shows on top bar when connected..
4, the android version seems very limited on this unit, even in developer settings there dont seem to be many adjustments options to turn on or off.. i have a meter display shows cars rom gauge and speedometer its all im KM and there is no options anywhere to change this..
5, system does not shut down when car ignition goes off, i have to manually shut it down, even tho in settings its set to shut down when acc off! Any suggestions?
I have attached pictures of GPS ignition off and one of ignition on.. also all the build software info pictures too..
Any help would be appreciated

1. There's is no upgrade to Android 11 or 12.
These FYT 7862 units only go as high as Android 10. That may change in the future (maybe not) but any that you see say Android 11 or 12 it is fake (like mine, fake Android 11).
2. Are you using a GPS receiver that you got with the head unit or are you using your cars original GPS sensor? Where is it placed? Need more info to answer this
3. I don't know what home screen launcher is installed on your unit so cannot answer. Some launchers cannot change the icons, some can. A photo of the home launcher might help.

1, thank you for clarifying
2, cars gps is connected as well as the external gps sensor. As it it dual system (can access cars original system as well as switch to android) cars gps on the car system works fine. The android gps is acting starnge, currently it is behind the dash right behind the head unit mounted on a metal plate top of antenna facing north…
3, i will up load picture shortly of my launcher screen
Thabk you

Thats my current launcher john

Update :- problem solved i moved the gps antenna and stuck it behind the head lining restarted system and voila its working now. I had it behind the dash and on top of dash but looks like too much interference for it to work there.
