Hello, guys I'm new at this and I got a Ekiy T7 9 inch for my Peugeot 508 2013, the wheel controls worked, but in many ways it failed, I tried to work it out with the seller but no luck, I'm really disappointed, but maybe you could help me out.
I'm disappointed because you cannot configure as I've seen in other canbus settings, camera resolution and all the stuff to switch from reverse to front camera.
So here is my question, that can be done by changing the canbus or the firmware, to get all the options?
I've seen other moldels of canbus according to they site are compatible with my peugeot.
I attached pics of muy specs and menu,
PLEASE HELP, I can't afford to send it back or buy a new one.

Never got around to hooking up my canbus decoder (no factory wires on the radio harness), but I've read it's common to need to adjust the baudrate to get the headunit to recognize the decoder. Have you tried this? Which decoder is selected currently in factory settings?

Hi, thanks for the response, I selected my car a Peugeot 508, ir has the option of RCZ and 2019, chose 2019 due works better..
But still missing options and for example I saw some vids that the car reverse original sound, the beep, works in this unit doesn't, what I was planning if I find which canbus they have, install that one, if that doesn't brick the unit and maybe I can get all the options for the canbus.
But I want to be sure, if that doesn't brick the unit or i have the desired result.

Changing the CANbus decoder will not brick your unit. Check with your reseller whether he send you the correct decoder.
Replacing your FYT firmware with other FYT firmware will probably not brick your unit either, but might work not as good as you do need some minor tweaks to adjust it for your specific unit.
But first check with your reseller whether he sent you the correct decoder

Ok,
I talked last night, my time with some canbus sellers, they told me it was not probably a decoder problem.
As far as I could find is the same decoders that normally uses other radios, seems that the factory settings menu is not full developed by the seller engineer department or developer team or manufacturer, so is missing options and features, to be called. Mine is PSA-RZ-69 others are 15, it seems is newer by the date is set in it.
Don't know if I can just change that menu? and I'm not an expert of firmware changing or tweaking, more programing...I'm good following instructions and technology, if is not too complicated I could try, just changing that ROM..
After I open a dispute te seller agreed to show to the department of engineers, some vids of other units that has it and are similar to mine...and try to solve the issues I presented to him.
For me, the biggest issues is that I cannot setup the front camera for it to swap after I disengage the reverse gear, also it doesn't show the lines, also that I lost the original car beeping sound of the sensors through the car spearkers, that I see it works with almost the same canbus decoder in other radios...
My best bet is software related...I'll keep posted if the seller resolves the issue...
I have another question, I can change the BT app of the radio, only that, for a better one? that accept split screen?

Vendor Specs:
Vendor Site:
XTRONS Website
Experience:
My Car:
KIA Ceed 2008
Installation:
Installation was pretty easy. Once I got rid of the middle console and removed the old Radio, the installation was easy. Stuff all the adapters (WIFI, 3G, GPS) where it makes sense and fix the Radio. You need a 2DIN Install-Cage for your Car, so get that ahead of time. I won't go deeper into the installation, there are numerous "how-to"s that do this way better than I can
Getting Started:
After the installation, the unit gives you no basic steps like you would assume from Android (the timezone, user, mail stuff). General Language is set to English, the Keyboard has an additional Asian keyboard as well so set this to your desired language asap. The unit is fast, the UI is well thought out for Car use. CD play and DVD (region 2, Europe) was no problem and also fast. I added another Bluetooth Adapter because the onboard bluetooth has the known limitations for this kind of head units (only phone connection) and I want to use my Bluetooth ODB2 Adapter.
Until now, I have only positive things to say about this unit. I had a China-Unit before, which broke down after a year of usage and where the hardware quality just wasn't good (wobbly buttons, display kept getting pushed in because it was not mounted correctly and so on). This has a good hardware quality (until now )
Over the next few days, I will configure the Bluetooth stuff and I will see how well configurable the hardware buttons are (for example: Start Spotify instead of the music app when I press on Music and so on).
If you also Plan to get an Android Unit and don't want to wait for Android Auto (and the fact that all units will start at around 1000 € probably ), this may be your unit.
They ship from the UK (even have a warehouse in Germany, where I come from) so if you are in Europe, you don't have to worry about taxes and so on. Also, shipping was very fast (like.. Amazon fast).
Please tell me your experience with this device
Additional pictures:
Spyware?
I have installed this unit this past weekend and I really like it. I have a question though about the possibility of having pre-installed spyware from the chinese on these android devices. How would I go about detecting the possibility that there is something lurking somewhere?

Hi, could you make a photo of your Settings->About screen? Would be curious about the system version and the MCU Version you have.
Does the radio already play when booting up or do you have to wait until the boot is completed?
Thanks!

I have the same unit and have been running it for a few weeks. I really like this head Unit and would very much like to root it as it does NOT come rooted. I would like a "safe" way to gain root access.

You asked for the Settings/About screen for this unit (TD-626A) didn't you?
Of course, you are right. Thanks for the pics
I read somewhere you wanted to root the unit, that's why I provided you the link to the huifei forum.

Hi everyone,
so i've bought a new android unit for my car. I have been checking the other posts in this forum but they are kind of "pro level" so i felt the need to clarify some doubts. I know you guys are experts, if you can help be i would be thankful. I'll also provide some feedback that maybe can help people who are considering buying it.
The unit i've bought is this one:

I have a Ford Grand C-Max manufactured 11/2015 (the restyled one), and i thought this radio would be a good fit (i've had other android units in my past cars). I bought the 6G+128GB version (TS6 version), with Android 11. The brand is "Navifly", however i guess this is just another brand variation.
1) Feedback
Positive- Fast and fluid Android experience - no lag to complain about.
- Sound Quality - a great improvement over the Ford Sync 2 original radio - better definition, better bass, supports higher volumes without distortion
- Radio has RDS - it actually shows the station name (we don't have DAB in Portugal, it is still FM) and the tuning quality is good
- GPS is ok. Not awesome, but usable. Supposedly, it also gets some Glonass satellites, but as you know Glonass constellation is sparser, so it usually only gets GPS triangulation. I use Waze, sometimes it takes a bit to understand where it is.
Negative- Quality of design and build of the plastic fairings: the plastic fairings are much lower quality relatively to the Ford ones. They don't precisely fit the car dashboard, by a couple of milimiters. I have it provisionally installed, but i'll have to shave some plastic when i get it definitely installed. Additionaly, the chines fairings don't have the metal clips/retainers that the original plastics have to get it securely in place. I've has to order some to get this sorted out...
- The CANBUS communication:
-> i am not getting any steering wheel communication at all (no volume control, no call pick up. This is the worst part for me
-> the information of the parking sensors is erratic. My car has 6 sensors at the front and 6 at the back (360º coverage) and there is quite an error on the info shown in this android unit, so i am not not trusting it a lot. Besides that, it is slow to react (couple of seconds), and the car should be drawn vertically (you brain needs to rotate the view 90º to get it right).
-> No Park Assist (automated parking) information is shown at the unit, so the Park assist is not currently working
-> I can get reversal signal, climate info (when i change it), and open door information.
- The screen. For its size, its low resolution, not bright enough, and it is very reflective. Not very happy with it.
2) Help RequestI need help to sort the CANBUS limitations. This is the canbus box they sent me:
I guess this box is not the most adequate for my C-Max. I can't read chinese characters so i really don't know what it says at all. I've tried to get into the canbus box definitions in the settings menu and have tried selecting other canbus choices with no avail: i couldn't get steering wheel info at all. So i've went a bit overkill and ordered two canbus boxes to see if a different canbus box solve my issues. I've ordered these two:
- Another Hiworld box (i guess this is a newer version than the one i have, so i hope they have sorted out the issues) https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002718903038.html?spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.27424c4dac8EZc
- An XP one: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002327630203.html?spm=a2g0o.9042311.0.0.27424c4dac8EZc
So i now have three questions for you guys:
1) Is this a FYT unit? Or a Mekede?
2) Will any of the new boxes sort out my canbus miscommunication?
3) Is there any place where i can get a firmware update? Or canbus firmware update? This is what the Android System settings show about my unit:
Thank you guys in advance for your help!!
I have tried other two canbus boxes from Hiworld and XP, with no avail. Still no steering wheel controls. Any suggestions?

Hi,
1) Mekede = FYT, not every FYT is a Mekede. But your unit is a Topways built unit sold by reseller TopNavi, so neither a Mekede nor a FYT nor a NaviFly. You are in the wrong sub-forum. Please ask in the general Android Head Units subforum
2) Ask your reseller TopNavi.
3) Please ask your TopNavi reseller or in the general Android Head Units subforum. There your will find the TSx series with firmwares and other information.
And by the way: It is a fake Android 11. It is still Android 10 (Api/SDK 29) as displayed on the web page. One can write a script that will set the "Android level" to any version you like: Android 10, 11, 31, 451, 10961, 4, ..
But it is a nice looking unit compared with the standard Ford units.
EDIT: This seems to be a FYT after all. Sorry for the confusion.
In my signature you find on the 3rd line the "HWGetInfo.apk". Please run it and share the created zip file.
LONG story short I bought this used MCMW head unit, tried getting my money back but PayPal sided with the seller even though it's missing pieces and constantly crashes after about a week of use. Performance has been under par (compared to AVINUSA.com or Joying unit's I've got running in other BMW's) and the manufacturer hasn't been helpful when I keep asking for firmware to reflash the unit to see if that'll help. It'll run decently for about a week, then suddenly Waze, the DVR app, etc will continually crash leaving me to only use the unit for Bluetooth and that's about it...unless I reset it back to factory, reinstall apps and then buy myself another week. The touchscreen is oddly either unresponsive or too sensitive as I'm scrolling around, it's just getting frustrating for daily use. I just wanna see if anyone has any advice on how to improve it's performance so it's usable and doesn't need weekly resetting. Even pointing me to the correct forums would be helpful but direct links to actual flashable firmwares, updates, etc would be awesome.

Unfortunately, the forum crystal ball doesnt know what you unit is and from the hundreds of made up models and brands, the seller could be selling units of different types, from different factories, despite branding with the same model name.
Post screenshots from Android system information, including the MCU version when posting questions.
Doing this will at least help others help you, or you might find the information has already been posted or discussed here, yourself.
Damn it, man...just squint harder and you'll see it!! ;-)
My bad....I'm at work, meant to post these and then got caught up. Hopefully these suffice.

Hello, your unit is MCU: MTCH, the app crashes problem is doing the last updates of android webview and chrome. Maybe that's your problem too. Just uninstall and disable their updates, reboot the unit. Ignore any requests to update them. A firmware update won't help, this is the only working solution on Android 10 so far.
Ok, I'll try that since I did update Android Webview and Chrome during my lunch, yet Waze and my dashcam app crashed consistently on my drive home. I'll try uninstalling both and see if that helps me avoid having to completely reset the unit again.
Requested moderator moves to MTCD section.
Op read through MTCD section, the issue has been discussed already.

Disabled, cleared their storage and now Waze works again. Unit's still slow to respond (dragging apps for split screen took like 8 tries) vs it's stats but at least it works now. Thanks for the help.
I bought the same unit for my E38 but I bought it from Xtrons directly thru xtrons-usa on ebay I almost purchased it from MCMW until I figured out he is reselling an Xtrons unit even though he says he is not and says that Xtrons is rubbish. I can tell you it is the biggest POS I've spent $400 on so MCMW is right it is rubbish. I think it runs better after updating webview seams to be more fluid but I just updated it after reading this thread lastnight so time will tell, you understand.
Xtrons PQS1139BL issues

I did resolve the noise issues by dumping the factory amp since I posted this.
Ooh I'm sure they're the ones exact same units, I guess the only saving grace of keeping this used unit is that it included all the iBus converter and another module I'm forgetting about but I can read everything from the OBC on the iBus app and it adds features like triple blinkers.
My current frustration with the unit (which happened to bring me back to these forums today) is that I wanted to see if there's a way to adjust screen sensitivity/accuracy. As I mentioned above it takes multiple times to move apps around in the app drawer, trying to run dual apps and even general use.

I purchased the Teyes CC3 for my Jeep Grand Cherokee, but apparently it is not compatible with my year (2020). I've had it sitting here with nothing to do with it. I'm finally selling it. Never even attempted installation, it's simply not compatible. here is the listing title when I bought it: TEYES CC3 For Jeep Grand Cherokee WK2 2013 - 2020
What do you mean "simply not compatible"? These Android Head units are self contained devices. They have radios and connections to vehicle systems.
The problems encountered usually are either related to Canbus or to interfacing with steering wheel controls and/or amplifiers. You can live without a Canbus, usually. Sometimes you can't, if you need to control things like HVAC through the head unit. There are interface modules that can help with that. Here are some:

The main problem is that it's going to cost extra for those interface modules.

@jvs60 FYI, on the AliExpress page for the CC3 Jeep Cherokee 2013-2020:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001666020340.html
It mentions 3 steps to do to make the A/C, and other functions, that worked through the OEM radio, work with the CC3. It also talks about a modification to the provided bezel that needs to be made to make the CC3 fit and mentions that the CC3 will stick out a bit. Here are a few images from there:

I used Google Translate using my phone's camera to translate:
Step 1 is referring to the Assistant app/feature.
Step 2 has heading of Assistant Setup with options Button Display and Power-on Start and another option that says Air Conditioning Protocol.
Step 3 shows which vehicle to select in the Canbus setup.
It looks like from the images, it doesn't cover any buttons or other controls.
I have no association with TEyes. If you're past the return/warranty time, you can either sell it or try to make it work. If you're not past the warranty period you can go through AliExpress dispute process, if that's where you purchased it. I went through it and after providing images and messages that TEyes sent me to prove my dispute, AliExpress was pretty good.
Just providing some info to help you out. Good luck.

Thank you for the information. The first issue is, if you look at the before and after picture in the Teyes instructions, the "before" is not the the head unit that I have. If I'm not mistaken the head unit changed from the 2019 model. My stock head unit is attached to the dash kit frame. What I was sent will not work with my model year. I think they need to edit the compatible years. The only solution is the attached $500 dash kit
Well that sucks. I got it now. If you're still within the warranty/dispute period, you can ask the reseller to send you the correct bezel. That's clearly grounds to win the dispute. I figure what will happen is you'll only get a partial refund. If you want the entire refund, they'll ask you to ship it back at your cost. Even if they paid for the shipping, they would be holding your refund until they got the unit. I don't know what would happen then when they have your money and the unit.
On AliExpress, I remember seeing some manufacturers/resellers that just sold the bezel. If you get a partial refund, you might be able to buy the correct bezel. I did a quick search and didn't find one. Or, then you could just sell it to recoup your entire amount.
Good luck.
I've read through a few threads around obd connection issues and such, but this is just generally using Bluetooth to connect to my phone via the Bluetooth app.
The Bluetooth app doesn't seem to save any inputs for name or password, i tried the reset button but that just comes up with "reset unsuccessful"?
Also tried clearing storage under the app, that didnt help
Unsure what to try next?

Device name will be the name of your phone head unit when scanning detects your phone...set phone bluetooth to scan, set head unit to scan (slide down at top of screen to make sure bluetooth is toggled on then enable BT scanning....the Device field should auto populate with phone name detected while scanning....password is 0000....that also should auto populate
thanks for the response, i tried all kinds of combinations to pair the phone with the headunit. Including other phones. Even the TEYES OBD2 device is never found.
Also, i think those settings are to do with the headunit and not already paired devices. I've seen a few other videos where these fields have TEYES and 0000 predefined. This TEYES video has it called CARKIT
I've tried a few more things;
factory reset (from settings -> user -> backup and reset)
removing and re-plugging in the cabling with Bluetooth antenna
Still no luck, stuck scanning with nothing showing up... (even TEYES OBD2 devices doesn't show)
Is this normal ?
ok, so i think it is resolved... what i did;
followed instructions here, assuming this is a hard reset - https://teyes.co.nz/pages/cc3-2k-april-2023-29-04-2023?shpxid=23b36055-992d-4ddd-8fba-327143c7af43
obtained latest firmware for CC2 2K
modified config.txt updating sys.fyt.bluetooth_type=0
inserted usb stick, let the update run
fixed, bluetooth working again - headunit is named TEYES, code 0000
one more note, i have heard from another user that pressing the "Reset Bluetooth" button in the Bluetooth app as seen above can actually cause the problem. The only recovery is a full re-flash as above.

You can actually just have that line in the config txt file and it will reset the blue tooth without factory reset or reloading firmware.
I’ve just done it.
I just wanted to say thank you for posting this solution! I had the exact same issue and was able to fix it by adding that single line in the config.txt and doing a config-only flash since I'm not rooted.

What number did you both replace with a zero?
Most of the older FYT devices (including the older Teyes) used sys.fyt.bluetooth_type=1 and this could be changed to sys.fyt.bluetooth_type=0
The newer devices seem to use sys.fyt.bluetooth_type=7, or sys.fyt.bluetooth_type=0
I'm wondering if your newer units were set to 1 by mistake. It's odd that the included Teyes odb wouldn't even connect.

I wasn't able to check on my actual unit before flashing and the latest firmware update config.txt file didn't have that line at all so I added it myself.
In this older firmware update from October 2022, the number seems to be set to 1 so I assume that was the value on my unit when the issue happened. (forgot to mention, I have just the regular CC3)
Is there any documentation that might explain what bluetooth_type 0, 1, or 7 might mean?

It's my belief that 0 uses the Bluetooth module built in to our Unisoc chipsets.
1 uses an additional Bluetooth module installed on our motherboards and 7 uses a newer Bluetooth module on the newer motherboard's (like the CC3 2K and Mekede M6 Pro).
So for your older cc3 you can use 0 or 1 and the newer units can use 0 or 7
double post, sorry !
Hi ! I have the same problem just 3 days after installation...
There is solution without full re installation ?
Or it s possible to modify the text file directly from the unit?
Thanks a lot !
