Hi, I have an px5 xtrons and a problem with the clock on Android 8 (stock and malaysk rom) When I restart the car the unit have the old time of shutdown. (Unit connected to battery and no problem with android 6) Canbus is set on my model car and I have this problem, but if I set canbus model to none the clock works ok. I try to change canbus box but same issue. Anyone have a solution? Thanks
edit: even with the last malaysk android 6 rom same problem. Is it possible to solve putting downgrade version of clock app?

I've had the same issue for probably the past year or so when I first started playing with custom roms. I'm pretty sure it happened after doing an MCU update. I have GS PX3 MTCD running hal9 rom. I've tried disabling network time etc but no difference.
When booting the headunit the time appears to be correct, then it changes to the wrong time, then after a few mins when either GPS or wifi has got a connection it corrects itself. I haven't tried changing the canbus model in factory settings as it's already correct.
I've found that the Clock app from Google works. All other including the stock clock keeps the shutoff time.
same problem here after upgrading Xtrons PX5 unit to Android 8.... it seems that somethings changed in CAN-Bus communication. Where bevore the car could write the correct time into the HU it's not possible anymore and the wrong (stucked) time get written into the Dashboard. The time will not synced when the HU is in standby (fastboot)... but will synced within 1 minute if i make a full boot.

hi, can you explain in more detail haw you managed to make clock work with google clock app?
i have installed it but no changes. the clock still shows old shutdown time
Hi I'm having the same issue with my xtrons head unit. Did anybody figure out a fix for this?
Hello,
I have the same problem. I have tried to add clock app to the whitelist, (mtce-utils) but It doesn't work. The canbuis I don't know is working correctly, Torque applicacion can not detect ODB unit and I can not view any value.
I set the clock to get the time from GPS only and I ve never had a problem.

Yes, but it only works if you have GPS connection (outdoor). If you are into garage there is no GPS udpate.
I have XTRON PX5 unit with Malaysk 8.0 and I have set the following things on whitelist:
com.android.settings
com.android.providers.settings
com.microtek.hctwidget
com.android.deskclock
com.cyanogenmod.lockclock
I have used mtce-utils ehitelist and Graser Daisata Xposed modules and none of them works.
I have connected the unit to the battery to avoid losing memory.
What can be the problem?
Thanks!
Same problem here :|
Android 6.0 clock also not working
As of 11/30/2018 after doing an MCU update 2.83 for Android 6.0, my clock also stopped syncing with the car's when turning it back on. It also display the last time right before the car was turned off.
Turning on/off GPS update or network update or setting the clock manually makes no difference and does not fix issue. Hope to see a solution to this.
If you revert back to the original MCU version, does the clock start working normally again? I'm assuming it would... I would just revert back to the original MCU version and be done with it. Unless, of course, there is some specific fix in the newer MCU that you needed?

Did you export you MCU config before updating the MCU ?
I don't mind reverting back to the original MCU version I had but the problem I had with that one was my audio kept going back to sounding like mono instead of stereo each time I started the car. When I played video or music sound would only come out on my right door speakers. I kept having to do a factory reset each time to get it to come out at both sides.
I haven't browsed through the forum enough to see if anyone else experienced similar issues or if there were fixes for this.

You could try the latest MCU, they may have sorted it out, you dont say what unit you have.
You could also try updating to Ore, it may also be fixed in the latest ROM.
Thanks I'll have to give it a try. My unit is the HA 2150 V600 with the px5 chip.
HI did anybody manage to sort the clock issue out on the headunits thanks
I have been having this same issue for a long time and hoping to find a fix for it.
I have tried the Google Clock app, that did not work.
I have updated my MCU from Ver 1.81 to 2.65 to 2.75 and now on 3.0.1. None of these MCU versions fix this issue.
I have also tried the V2.75_sp and no change (Did not think this would help with this issue, but tried it anyways)
On each of the MCU versions above, I have tired multiple roms (Stock, Malyask and Hal9K) and no luck fixing the problem.
The only time I have been able for this to work is if I have wifi enabled and connected to a Hotspot and Network time sync selected in the settings/Date&Time. With this configuration the time sync works everytime.
Now when the time does not Sync and if I open the GPS Plus app, the time displayed in the app is correct. So based on this, the only thing I can think of is that somehow the time from GPS is not being pushed to the clock app.
Guys I think I found the solution, at least it works in my case. What happens actually is that the unit is set to autosleep and not to shut it down. So when the unit goes to sleep, everything freezes including the clock time. When you put back the key contact, the unit goes back to live and all the apps start again from the moment when they went to sleep.
The solution which seems to work in my case, is to set the unit to shut down after I turn off the engine. Of course, it takes around a minute to turn on back when I put the contact key, but because the whole unit has been shut down, when it starts again it checks also the time clock and it syncs with either the GPS time or with the network provider time zone (depends what you have set). In my case I use the GPS time zone and with this workaround everything works well now.
It's not so much the MCU updates but the actual system update. Going backwards to the 20171214 system update will get the clock working fine again and should work with the most recent MCU update (my instance). With this version I didn't have to bother with changing the auto sleep or shutdown settings since it's an inconvenience to wait for a full minute for the unit to boot up. Also did not have to change GPS or network time sync either. I turn the key ON and the clock just works right away.
Hi all,
i have a problem with some apps (e.g. A2DP, DVD, Mediaplayer) on my MTCD PX5 2GB on both the Malaysk 6.0.1 and the new Oreo 8.0.0 Android.
When i want to launch these apps, they begin to load, show the UI for the fraction of a second and immediately disappear. In case of A2DP i can hear the sound from BT shortely until the App-UI went away. So the app seems to work generally but for some reason gets pushed to the background. In Malaysk i had this issue with A2DP, DVD and the preinstalled Mediaplayer, but not with the Radio-App. In Oreo i have the problem also with the Radio-App.
All Apps, which i installed myself additionally like Poweramp, MXPlayer, Pocketcasts, Googlemaps, Sygic are running without problems. Some of the preinstalled apps like Soundsettings, Filemanager or Car/Canbus-Events do not show the Problem.
I also tried to uninstalled my favorite AGAMA launcher and used the default launcher from the ROM but no change.
I can see the disappeared apps when i push the android-task-switching-icon, so they do not seem to be killed, only put to some unusable background-state.
Does anybody have an idea, what could cause this problem?
Thanks a lot
Same problem

Update: The Radio-App works now stable, suddenly while DVD and A2DP are still unusable. I dont know why.
Other Audio-Bug from Malaysk also persisting on Oreo is Volume, Equilizer and Soundpositioning (Front vs. Rear) gets reseted to default after re-launching the car/MTCD. It is quite annoying to re-fresh the front/back-volumesetting everyday, allthough the UI shows the correct user-defined position, i need to change and re-change the volume and it will suddenly flip to the correct user pre-defined value. (may be another thread???)
Hello there,
I've bought a second hand car with the chinese A-Media android system in it. Could it be the system is storing data about my driving routes? No matter how many times I try to disable the location function, it keeps turning on everytime I restart the system or better to say the car. Have also tried to disable as much apps that weren't necesarry for me, but some seem to be not deleteable (e.g. something like a GPS coordinates app? ). The previous owner was a company that used the car for their business.
How can I solve this, and is my feeling of being tracked / data being stored in the device/car real? Thanks!
Of course it's tracking you it's an Android system. If you have any concerns about the previous owner you should do a factory reset but since it probably came with some "special apps" you should look for the original firmware or root it and extract the apps. If you can turn off the GPS in settings just turn it on when you need to use it.

thanks for your info. It just bothers me that Location automaticly turns on when I start the car. Who says me some app is not spying on my location ? Turning it off in Settings does not work. Turns on automaticly every time at startup.
If you can't turn off the GPS from the Android settings you might be able to do it in the factory menu. Don't forget GPS and location are 2 different things. Do you know which HU you have?

I didn't knew it were 2 different things. What do you mean by HU ?
When I try to enter factory settings it ask for a password which I dont have.
Some info:
Model numer : A-MEDIA AUTO ( 1024 x 600 W )
Android version 6.0.1
Kernel Version 3.10.0 [email protected] # 1019
Buildnr px5-userdebug 6.0.1 MXC89L user.hct.20170619.104614 test key
MTCU version MTCD_KGL_V2.54_5
jun 15 2017
CPU 8 core 64bit CPU coretex-a53 @1.5G
mem 2000mb
You should be able to find lots of help for that unit. Sorry HU is head unit. Try 1260 for the password or maybe 8888. Refer to it as MTCD KGL and more people will know what unit you're talking about. Try not to change too much stuff in the factory setting it can make the HU stop working.

Hi,
i have installed carwebguru on my android car head unit 5 days ago, and today my backup camera stopped working, i have tryed an other android car head unit on my car and the backup camera was working normally, some technician said it could be a virus due to the download of the carwebguru, is there a solution for that ?

I have the same issue .. it worked fine with a specific Theme but when I started playing with themes etc.. it stopped working. I reset the Head unit and it worked agin till i messed with themes .. so I'm thinking that the app is "taking Over" the setting in the head unit that allows it to switch to the Backup Camera.. gonna play with it some more to see if I can n figure out what setting it is..
BTW.. I using a 1.3 Navi 600 Plus in a c300 (when listing a question, good to tell what your unit is and what car.. this can help to see if its specific to a car or head unit .. or the app )

figured out that it will only work with the "command" system so i created a shortcut to go back to main App which allows me to go to command system and thus see the cam.. but hope they allow it natively in their future updates.
Hello. I am using Dasaita px3 7.1.2. I have one little problem. I want to use google app with factory version. But it always updates itself automatically. This aggravates the system. I turn off auto update from play store. But it still gets updated. What should I do to prevent the update?
