I have update my mtce px3 Android 7.1 MTCE with a px5 Android 6 and charged malaysk rom based on Android 8.0... but afther that i can’t turn ON my Wi-Fi. Bluetooth working perfect... all the thing working good.. only Wi-Fi don’t wont to turn on. if i try to start a wifi hotspot i get an error
Thanks to the people who can help me ?
edit:
I solved my problem by buying a new px5 upgrade kit, with preinstalled oreo 8.0 .. now before working on this new px5 I will try to install the same rom (provided you find it) on the previous px5, and I will update you on the result
Does your usb port(s) also stoped working?
Which MCU version are you running?
Did you preform a full wipe after flashing?
What are your current factory settings? Are those correct for your board?
Can you provide a logcat?

Full wipe before and after flashing the rom, cache wipe, i’ve Made a reset from the setting mod in car related...
How i can Made a logcat? Can you tel me how i hate to do!? Thanks
Any one can help me? Any suggestion?
Lets see if we can find out why it is not working use this app to email yourself a full logcat:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tortel.syslog
Secondly do you want to connect your hu to the internet through wifi. Or do you have a sim in your hu and do you want to share the data inside the car.
If it is the first you should only turn on wifi, if it is the second you should turn wifi off an only tetering on. On most wifi chips these functions can not be used simultainiously.
I suspect you need to select the right wifi chip in factory settings for the wifi to work after the board swap and mcu update.

tnks..
Reinstalled temporarily the px3 and wifi working... reinstalled another time the px5 and wifi don’t work
As you can see in the image, if I reinstall px3 wifi work good.
May this can help you. With Oreo some head untis doesn't awake the internal usb-hub ...
But:
Hal9k: If you have a Bluetooth module MD725 type 2, it will not work in Android 8, although Android 6 works.
The reason is that from Android 8 its driver was removed.
How do you know if you have such a module?
On the first page of the factory settings in the BT item, MD725
The command getprop bt.md725.type, executed in the terminal, answers "2"

I tried the method you suggested but unfortunately for me it does not work .. it seems that the px5 does not want to know to communicate with the wifi module ... I understand that my head unit is equipped with a wifi chip
REALTEK RTL8188ETV
if I go in
"CAR RELATED SETTING" then on factory setting
TO THE BLUETOOTH MODULE I see:
WQ_BC5
DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT IT DOES NOT WORK, IF REINSTALLING THE PX3 WORKS ALL CORRECTLY, WHILE WITH THE PX5 THE WIFI CONTINUES NOT TO BE ACTIVATED
I tried them all now and I still have the px3 that works properly including wi-fi while If I install the PX5 there is no way to make the wi-fi work .. it seems that I do not see the form and I can not understand why. I also noticed that on the px5 is missing the file system / bin / sdsdk.bin, I tried to copy it from my px3 but without results ... (I simply copied the file, doing nothing else) Someone can help me Thanks
I got the same error. Today I got a new px5 board from the seller. Problem is I desoldered the internal wifi chip and an external USB wifi dongle doesn't work. Later in I'll try to resolder the original chip and see if it works. If it works then, there seems to be a problem with the px5 board. When I got the unit new everything worked flawlessly after 3 month it began to turn off the wifi sometimes, but it could be turned back on. Some time later it was totally dead. Turning on didn't worked at all
Quick Update: Soldered the Wifi Module back into it's place. Still Wifi can't be turned on. It's really frustrating.

I am facing similar problem. Here is the youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysQYn9B-a-Y
Tried a lot of things to fix this thing, ended up updating firmware to "[ROM][PX3][RK3188][Nougat][7.1.2] Hal9k ROM 2 for ALL RK3188/PX3 MTCD/E head units" but nothing fixed problem.
Solved !!!
I bought another px5 with pre-installed Android 8 ... and with this everything works !!! including Wi-Fi???? now I'll try to find the rom that is installed on this px5 and install it on the other ... let's see how it goes

Hey guys,
I purchased a PX5 unit from aliexpress - search for "android 997 8 inch" and you'll see my unit (newbie, cant post links yet).
The issue I'm having is the Wifi will not let me toggle it on in the settings menu. The MAC address is reading as 02:00:00:00:00:00, which indicates its not really interfacing with the hardware to me.
Bluetooth works though, as does GPS (can't load maps though, no internet...).
I've tried:
*MCU version was 2.72_3, I upgraded to 2.78 and saw no change. Reverted back.
*Refreshing network settings
*Re-loading the ROM, provided by vendor
In addition, I'm getting an error on startup, "android.microtek.canbus" failed to post notification on channel null. See log for details". Also a fair amount of white noise from the unit.
I'm ordering a wifi USB dongle and will try that out, but does anyone have any ideas on how to fix the issue? Maybe factory reset? Maybe motherboard is broken?

Frenky,
I had to buy a USB wifi/bluetooth dongle! It works great now though. I bought this one from Amazon, search for "Wireless WiFi Bluetooth Adapter, USB WiFi Dongle Network Adapter 150Mbps & Bluetooth Transmitter Receiver(External Antenna) for Desktop/Laptop/PC, Supports Windows 7/8/8.1/10/XP/Vista"
Try going into Factory Settings (password: 126) change CANBUS setting to your CANBUS or car make. Also make sure WiFi is on in factory settings.
Did you solve your white noise issue? How about the CANBUS issue? I am experiencing both of these issues. Thanks.
you have found a solution=?
My solution to the white noise was return it.
Sorry but nothing fixed the issue and I tried everything I could find on the net.
Installed a kenwood android unit and no more white noise or any other issues.
no wifi...
mac address 02:00:00:00:00:00 ....
tryed with stock rom 8.0 , malaysk rom 8.0, hal9k 8.0 .. no working..
downgraded to android 6, loaded malaisk 6.0 .... nothing.. wifi still not working with the same mac address .. 02:00:00:00:00:00 ..
anyone know what is the problem ?
the wifi chip s on the px5 ??
because i reinstalled the old px3 and now wifi working...
sorry for my english
Hi community.
This is my first post, so please be nice. I just got my first Headunit and i am having some trouble. It´s an Xtrons TE706PL (MTCE Oreo).
The first problem is WIFI. When starting the connection is always good. But after a few minutes of inactivity its is going down to nearly nothing. In this moment the head unit is on my desk only two meters distance to my router and it gives me only 0.5mbit/sec.
The second problem is USB and SD. I cannot see any pluged in devices in USB or SD-Card slot. The File Manager does not detect them. Only with ES File Explorer I can see the devices pluged in USB and use the files. SD-Slot seemes to be completely dead. But this cannot be right, can it?
So please help me. Did I get a defective Headunit, should I send it back? Or is the software so buggy and I should try another software?
Thanks in advance.
Edit: If I don´t connect with Bluetooth the Wifi seems to work. Strange!

Probably you have a md725 bt module (is a rtl8723 wifi+bt chip) that some guys reported to be interfering bt and Wi-Fi signals.
(Check which bt module is set up on factory settings)
Enviado desde mi SM-G950F mediante Tapatalk
The factory settings say: WQ_BC6
Maybe it would help to use a seperate bt/wifi dongle.
Some people here seem to be successful with the Comfast CF-WU725B.
Hi,
Did somebody try to use an android auto function? My car (Peugeot 308SW 2018) and the phone not connecting with latest (8.1.0) android version. I tried to enable an USB debugging (as workaround recommendation), but nothing changed...
Have you other idea or working solution?
thx!

Yes, it works perfectly in my mid 2017 Kia Cee'd SW. Check if you have android auto enabled(i have the option to disable it and the apple car play). Also, the usb cable is working properly when connecting to a pc?
At the car side is enabled, at phone side i didnt found any additional options...
The best result was the android auto icon at phone appears and disappears continously with 2-3 different cables.
Is it possible the car head unit firmware not compatible with N7P latest SW version?

Doubt it. The car is from this year, it seems unlikely(to me) that the firmware wasn't up to date.
Stupid question, you have the android auto app installed on the phone right? Android has a Car Mode but to use android auto you need to install the app 1st(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.projection.gearhead&hl=en). If the link says that you have no compatible device, download the latest version from here(https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/android-auto/)
For almost a year I thought my head-unit wasn't up to date as the android auto would freeze, the app would say that the head-unit wasn't up to date, waze would display random artefacts, etc.
Now with the N7p it is butter smooth, no funky stuff and way more responsive that when I was trying to use it with my Redmi 4 Prime(same cable but with a micro-b to usb c adapter)...
No issues with AA in Seat Ateca 2018.
Everything works like a charm.
For phonecalls, you need to select default sim first, otherwise the call hangs on a sim selection prompt on the phone.
I write to nokia support and they send:
- clear the bluetooth cache
- do a soft reset
after this steps working fine...
what is Bluetooth cache?

You found here, how to clear: http://support.hereplus.me/hc/en-us/articles/115003497328-Clearing-your-Bluetooth-Cache-Android-/
Do you install android auto app on your smartphone ? some lands doesn't have android auto on the play store, so you need to download manually on apk mirror web site (arm64 version)
A good quality cable is also needed.
I'm having similar issues.
This phone won't work in both my VW cars.
If I clear all settings it works fine.
I get to my destination, unplug and then when I head out on my next trip it doesn't. Just a blank screen on the head unit and the phone has the green screen saying launch Android Auto on the head unit.
Tried the BT cache clearing as above. Will try a factory reset of the phone shortly too otherwise wait for pie and if still no go then sell the phone which I will miss
Though can't work without Android Auto now
It is definitely problem with Nokia 7 plus. In my car it connect and after few minutes black screen and solution is only disconnect and connect again.

I've found the bluetooth with my N7P poor anyway. This is my second one and the same as the first.
All HMD will do is send you a list of the bluetooth protocols they support.
So you may need to change your car ?
My 7+ works perfectly now.
Enable USB debugging and disable the extreme power saving settings.
I recently purchased a PE98MTVPL, headunit.
Generally happy with it but there are a couple of issues.
1. It initially connected to my wifi, but now it won't even see the router. I started by not re-connecting to the router. I told it to forget the router so I could try and get it to reconnect and now it doesn't even display my router in the list, but it does offer me other people's routers to connect to though. My phone is getting full signal from the router when I am in the van next to it.
I've tried doing a network reset, but it doesn't work - the system retains all the old network information.
I've also tried doing a factory reset and that does nothing at all.
2. I have been able to connect one phone and the ODBII dongle via bluetooth, but it won't let me pair anything else, even though the bluetooth is registering that a device is available.
Again network reset and factory reset don't seem to get rid of anything.
3. The DAB reception is good when stationary both with the engine on and off. But when moving there is loads of feedback whine whenever the steering wheel is turned, which makes it pretty much useless.
What did Xtrons support suggest?
No response as yet. I have asked them the same question. Will post their response when I get it in case it helps anyone else.
So the response from Xtrons was to send me a link to a firmware update file. I've downloaded and tried to install, but the update fails at the 'mcu update' stage. I've asked Xtrons for advice but no response. I suspect the update fail is something to do with how the files are structured on the SD card after I've unzipped them. Any advice?

I have the Xtrons PE88jccpl (Android 8, Octa Core) sometimes the wifi connects perfectly but other times getting authenticating, authentication errors. Also, having problems with the speed when its connected it starts out fast and perfect but slows down to .2 to .3 mbps after a couple of minutes. Xtrons support sent me a link to update and I updated both MCU and android but still getting issues. (I put the img and update.zip on a usb stick and once I inserted it asked if I wanted to update) Not sure if I am supposed to wipe the device after updating android

Format your SD card in FAT32, then copy the dmcu.img on on your card (nothing else should be on there). Once you pop the card in it should automatially ask you if you want to update. If not go to settings, there is a button "mcu update" try that. If that doesnt work go to recovery mode and choose mcu update.

Yes unfortunately this does not work well on these units. I have tried it with different wifi sticks and different phones, It never runs stable. I ve also tried variuos MCU versions and ROMS (stock and custom).As soon as you disconnect it (eg leaving the car) it might not reconnect (sometimes it does sometimes it doesnt). What helps is to change the password for the hotspot and then reconnect with the correct password. IN that case it somehow goes through the whole registration routine again and almost always connects. But obviosuly thats not a convenient solution. It is an extreme shame that something so simple does not work on these units. Using a 3g stick (not using wifi) works slightly better but still incredibly unfortunate and not understandable that this is not properly implemented. Every smartphone in this world can access the internet through a simcard without any problems:crying:
I recently updated and wiped the android and mcu provided by Xtrons, its reconnecting successfully finally after sleep. However, I am getting speed issues still, after a couple of minutes of driving it slows down to .2 to .4 mbps.
has anyone tried using usb wifi dongle?

Do you mean a 3G/4G plug in one? I've thought about it, but my current phone supplier won't let me have an extra sim. If you mean an external wifi unit instead of the built in one, then no I haven't. The box only has two USB inputs, and one of those is for my DAB+, and the other I use for connecting phones etc. I don't know if it would help though.
The problem seems to me to be something to do with the way the unit is handling IP addressing. I don't know if an external wifi unit would change that. When I gave my the Xtrons unit a fixed IP address on my home router it would re-connect without any issue. For some reason the head unit doesn't seem happy with the IP address changing.
I got TE706PL and the wifi turns itself off I have done the firmware and mcu update and it still does the same thing
Hello everyone,
First of all it is so cool to stumble across this section of XDA with all of the community helping each other with Android Head units. It was so cool to see recommendations, suggestions, help, software updates, Custom ROMs, etc. so Thanks for all the cool post to read.
Now getting into my problem...
I purchased a Dasaita 10.2" Android 10.0 with the main intentions of using the CarPlay feature (Note: I am willing to use Wired CarPlay). Additionally would love the added features the unit provides for its price point.
However after receiving the unit and installing it, I can not get Apple CarPlay to work with a constant connection every time the vehicle is turned on. It takes a whole lot of tinkering to get it to connect; such as connecting bluetooth, headunit hotspot, headunit wifi, connecting with wire. Then once it is eventually connected CarPlay will work fine for the duration of the usage and any warm boots (turning the car off for a few seconds and turning it back on). It is so frustrating to get it connected because it is not straight forward or simple in any means. What is worse is that after the car is off for a good amount of time and I turn it back on, all is lost. zLink keeps trying to connect and bluetooth is definitely connected but it just won't connect. I have to tinker with it again, such as forgetting the device and forgetting CarPlay, trying to connect to bluetooth again and try to connect via wire, etc. Then eventually it might connect. There is just no specific instruction path to get it connected, just requires a bunch of different ways of tinkering to eventually it might connecting.
It has just been a pain to try and get CarPlay working, that was the biggest selling point for me to get this unit. If I can't get it working soon, it will be taken off the vehicle and returned.
Posting this here for help or possible leads to where to find help.

P.S. 2: Android Auto works flawlessly, connect the USB and that is it Android Auto is working.
Got it working!!!! ?
The issue was that my phone was on iOS 14 Beta. I downgraded to a stable iOS version and it is working fine every time I turn the car back on and any warm boots. It just works now no problems.
The other devices I tested on where also on a stable iOS version not sure why they did not work?? Maybe I just did not test it enough, good thing I slept on it and recollected the next day.
Can you use Car Play wireless?

Not sure if anybody here can help but I recently purchased a Dasaita PX30 it is running Android 10 but there is no ZLink installed. I am pretty sure this unit has wireless CarPlay compatibility: when I go to car factory settings under CarPlay it is selected to ZLink but again the ZLink app is nowhere to be found. I tried downloading the ZLink apk v3.5.56 and installing using external USB but it just comes up to ‘not installed’. Please help! Thanks

Hi all,
I just installed the PX6 and everything works except Carplay. I have done everything that Dasiata on Amazon has instructed me to do. I can't get wired or wireless to connect. The main reason why I purchase this unit was for Carplay as well. I am on IOS 14.1. Any ideas?

*UPDATE*
Dasaita told me to update to MCU 3.65 and sent me the link. Now Carplay will work wirelessly, but will still not work wired. I realized that the way they have wireless Carplay setup to work sucks. I have to connect to the HU hotspot and Bluetooth to connect. Well, that keeps my phone from using cell data. Totally defeats the purpose. Does everyone have to connect that way?

So here we go. I have the solution that will allow you to connect to the Dasaita Hotspot and allow your phone to use mobile data. Finally, it works as it supposed to. This solution is for the PX6 with Android 10, MCU 3.65, and zlink.
1. Connect your iPhone to the Bluetooth
2. Connect your iPhone to the Wi-Fi Hotspot on the head unit.
3. Go to settings on the iPhone, then Carplay sections, and be sure that it connects to the head unit. Mine was called CAR-LINK, once connecting it changes to something like zjinnova-D310C
4. Go to SETTINGS and select Wi-Fi then select the blue INFO icon to the right of the name of your head unit hotspot connection.
5. Make note of both the IP address and the Subnet Mask address
6. Select the STATIC option and enter only the IP and Subnet Mask addresses from Step 5 -- (Leave everything else blank)
Boom, everything works as it should. I will inform Dasiata. This should be the first thing they tell you to try.

I’ve got the same version of firmware and software and running iOS 14.2. I am stuck on the step where you go to CarPlay -> General and connect to the head unit and the circle never stops spinning.
Does anyone know whether there is a fix in the works to make wired Apple CarPlay just work or if there is a more stable version I can try and roll my unit back to? This is quite annoying.

I’m on iOS14 and I keep getting a “hardware err, No MFi #” when I try to run ZLink (CarPlay wireless I haven’t seen an official new update from Dasaita.
Anyone else have this same issue?

I’m having the same issue as you, have you been able to fix it ???
Mine is flames as well. Sometimes it connects fine. Sometimes not at all, but phone says it is connected to the car via BT.
I did get it to connect today but I need to test more. While it was stuck on Zlink saying connecting, I placed a call (to my voicemail) and zlink connected. Could be unrelated. More testing needed.
Would love to update this to android 10 or a newer official version of zlink.
Anyone else have luck getting wireless Carplay to work consistently? Initially, it did for me on my Idoing PX6 head unit (similar software and hardware to the Dasaita), but I feel like I did something to cause it to stop working. Now, when I power on my radio, my phone connects quickly to the bluetooth and to the AP (wifi hotspot), but ZLink never opens automatically like it should. When I open ZLink manually, it just sits at "connecting". If I disconnect bluetooth on my iPhone and reconnect it twice, then ZLink will sometimes decide to work and do its thing.
I will try the static IP idea. I noticed it was on "low data" mode for the AP, so I disabled that.
I updated firmware to MCU 3.69 and the system update is from 12/15/2020 I think. That didn't help.
I also have a Carlinkit USB adapter, not plugged in, that uses an app called Autokit. I was trying to use that a few days ago and it would eventually work, but takes like 45 seconds to finally connect.
I have tried forgetting my home wifi on my iPhone so it doesn't have to disconnect from it, but that didn't help. The connections all seem to work perfectly and it's just ZLink failing, but it's hard to say.
Hey man How’d You get apple CarPlay to work ? Mine hasn’t worked for 3 months

Wireless Carplay? The static IP stuff didn't help. The only thing that seems to work is toggling bluetooth connection on my iPhone with the radio after manually opening Zlink on the radio. It still doesn't always work then.
No matter what, the phone connects to both the BT and Hotspot of the radio every time, it just doesn't continue on to Carplay and Zlink doesn't auto-launch or connect after manually launching.
I've used my car a few times after leaving my Oneplus 6T in it, like a permanent connected phone, and it works. Sometimes I have to launch Zlink manually, but other times it has worked for Android Auto without me having to do anything. So far, this is the most convenient solution. I also paid for T-Mobile One Plus to get 20GB of full speed hotspot each month so I can mess around with native Android apps and stuff. Still not sure what I'm going to settle on doing long-term. I just got iOS 14.3 installed on the iPhone so I might go try again.
