Hey, i have a wondefoo PX-5 Android Headunit 8.0, everything was working great but someday suddendly the WIFI didn't turn on (when turning the car on).
Since then, every now and then the WIFI won't turn on after the car was shut down, the problem is solved only if I restart the HeadUnit several times until the WIFI will come on.
I tried searching online but didn't find a problem as close to mine.. The WIFI does work but as I said only if I restart the HeadUnit.
When it's not working i just try to "flick" the switch from the OFF to ON position and it automatically returns to OFF (won't stay on the ON position for even a second).
Looking forward for your help,
Thanks, in advanced.
Same problem
I have a Dicola android 8.0 PX5 4GB/32GB head unit for my Audi A3.
I have the same problem as you discribe. The seller advised me to update the device but that had no effect.
I saw on Google more problems with those PX5 units. I seems to be the Wifi/BT module what causses the defect. Especially the low tempeture could cuase the defect. Not sure if this is the case but you are not the only one.

Hey everyone. I'm having a very weird issue. I just bought a brand new Kenwood touchscreen head unit for my 03 WRX and have had it in for about two weeks. When i was using my galaxy note 3, the phone would pair via Bluetooth and play music and calls flawlessly.
Now that i switched to the M8 o have the phone paired. It says paired on the phone and on the head unit. I can make calls, access my phone book, but can't play music. The Bluetooth icon on the phone has the two arrows pointing in and i know on my GN3 that ment media was connected as well.
Any thoughts on how to resolve this issue? Thanks for any help ?
I don't have a solution for you. However when you are pairing the two have you tried going in to the Bluetooth settings and actually making sure that phone and media are both connected? I figure they both must be with it having the two arrows, but just that way we can make sure they are for sure paired.

Yeah i tried that. I tried unchecking and rechecking. I wish there were more Bluetooth settings
I have the exact same problem on a new Kenwood unit. Funny enough my old Kenwood unit (very similar) didn't do this ever. I've found that turning on my phone Bluetooth after the head unit is turned on always gives me a phone connection only. In that case you have to cycle the head unit power. Turning the phone Bluetooth on and off doesn't fix it. I'm going to reset the head unit and if it doesn't resolve it then Crutchfield will be getting this thing back.
I have an Enonon G2110 with android 4.2. It has RK3066 1.6Ghz cortex A9 Dual core, DDR3 1GB. I am overall happy with the unit but I do have a couple questions for you all with this stereo.
1, The SWC controls randomly stop working and will stay not working until I reboot the unit. It is hooked up using the SWC1 wire through the SWC board on my steering wheel and hooked back to ground. It is the resistance type where every button has a different resistance. It programs correctly in the SWC program on the unit. I also have the canbus set to none in the "factory settings" area.
Any fix for this?
2, Bluetooth. When connected to my phone (LG G3) and making or receiving a phone call, the volume is super low through the unit. I have the unit hooked up using RCAs only through an amp in my car. The bluetooth connection for music works fine and is the correct volume. Is there anyway to turn up this volume on the unit? Or another program for bluetooth connection?
Also I can't get my PLX devices bluetooth KIWI to connect to this unit. I have the program TORQUE to obd2 monitoring. Not sure if its just an issue with the bluetooth program or something I am missing. The KIWI connects and works fine on my G3.
3, Screen flicker. My car has auto headlights. I have the headlight input wire hooked to the unit to change the brightness depending on day/night. When it switches modes from day to night the screen flickers for about 3 seconds. Is this normal? Any fix for this?
4, Google services stopped error. If i happen to kill the car and have to restart the engine, the unit says shutting down and the screen turns off for a moment and then back on. When it comes back on the error "google services has stopped" and I hit OK. Is there away around this? (besides not killing the car of course) It's not a big issue or anything but its something I have noticed.
I tired asking these questions on someones post but it got lost in the shuffle. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated!
Hi, I've been having some fairly big issues with my in-car Bluetooth and phones. I have a 2013 Subaru WRX with the stock stereo which is made by Clarion.
I first started experiencing problems with it about 2 years ago: I would be driving along when all of a sudden my phone would randomly disconnect from my car while I'm talking, listening to music or just had the GPS running (or a combination of these). Oftentimes my car stereo will spaz out once it disconnects and will actually freeze (all buttons are non functioning, including steering wheel controls, power button, am/fm buttons, volume, etc) and take many minutes to reset the connection or it won't do anything at all (the stereo says, "please wait" or "paused" or will get hung on the song title that was playing when the phone disconnected) and my phone won't reconnect to it - I'll have to restart my car. Sometimes the stereo will reset and simply won't reconnect to my phone.
The kicker is that it's an intermittent problem, but still happens semi-frequently for periods at a time then it seems to get better. I've tried deleting my paired phone list in the car and on the phone, I've tried formatting my phone and nothing worked. I even brought my car into Subaru to diagnose the problem because I feel it's a car issue and they claimed it worked with their own phone which I feel is BS because they didn't want to fix it while the car was still on warranty, but that's another story! They said they couldn't fix it because they saw no problem (couldn't reproduce it) even though I provided them with video and pictures of it occurring.
This first started happening with my unlocked, stock, HTC One, m7 (currently running lollipop) . I thought there was a chance it could be related to an app or the OS but was not able to diagnose or isolate the issue. I just recently bought a Nexus 5x (marshmallow), unlocked, stock, thinking if it was the phone then this would fix the problem. It actually seems to have gotten worse with the frequency, however I've noticed that the phone is better at pairing with my car after the connection is lost. I still can't reproduce this on a consistent basis.
Can anyone suggest some possible causes and fixes? I'm hoping someone here is a Bluetooth Guru!

Hey guys. I have installed an Xtrons PBX70M164 which is an MTCE GS PX5 4G/64G Android 10 device, about two weeks ago. Things were working fine. But I noticed some days ago that I didn't have any more audio. I was not completely ready with installation because I still needed to install the DAB+ radio. So I was messing with the FM and DAB antenna's.
I do have the MOST fiber optic system in my car. I connected an MP3 player to the unit to verify if this could be the problem, but it's working as expected. Then when I connect the Xtrons radio, no more audio...
Also one other thing is that I cannot scan for FM channels on my radio anymore?
I tried to disconnect the device, factory reset and check all the cables. I'm not sure what else I can do. Is the device broken? What else can I check? Thanks!
Send it back or see an experienced auto electrician/installer.
Update: the device was actually faulty and Xtrons replaced it for a new one.
