Hi, everyone,
I'm looking for a new head unit with good hardware for my Ford Focus MK2 (2008, manual air conditioning). The head unit must have a fast CPU, sufficient RAM and storage space as well as DSP. The hardware should support Hal9k. A 9 inch display would also be very nice.
Thanks in advance for your help

If you want Hal9k, you need an MTCD/E which means you are in the wrong subforum. Will ask the moderator to move this to the correct subforum.

Thanks for this information. I wasn't sure if I posted in the correct subforum.
Hal9K (MTCD / E) is not a must have. So far I haven't had a headunit (pumpkin) without any bugs. In most cases they could be lived with.
You will find bugs in these units as well, believe me. I am satisfied but if you try to stray a bit from the defaults you'll soon hit into limitations.

From what I'm reading about Key Lime Pie, it may solely target quad core hardware. I have high regard for many of you in this forum, and would like to know if you have looked into what it will take to leverage 5.0 for Infuse, or if that is already moot and you see it will be easy to accomplish. Just curious. Thanks.
Or if simply that won't be answerable until there is a code leak?
Wrong Section........This area is for Development and not Q&A.
Moderator(s), please transfer this thread to appropriate area. Hope a few developers will be kind to give some input there.
Or, moderator(s), if you deem this would be pertinent to enough developer input to remain here, either way is fine. Thanks.

lol the moderators will not deem this relevant to the development section. Thanks for the laughs though.
They can move it, then. Thanks for the hospitality. Expectations are adjusted.

Thank you. Check this link:
http://www.gottabemobile.com/2013/03/26/samsung-quad-core-cpu-required-for-android-5-0
Not sure whether quad-core programming could be leveraged to single or dual core. Hence the question to developers, who would probably have a good idea.
my guess is late july or aug this phone will get it! thanks to scott and his cm10.1
Well, I think i've annoyed enough people on enough threads to decide to make one dedicated to this issue.
I ordered this product:
http://xtrons.com/pf75m211a-7-andro...irroring-function-obd2-for-mercedes-benz.html
Came with this Firmware: MTCD_GS_V1.49_1 Apr 28th 2016
Torque\Dash Command fail miserably, both applications indicate that bluetooth is NOT ON. They attempt to turn it on only to freeze forever.
I updated the MCU to MTCD_GS_V1.61_1 May 31 2016
Also rooted and installed Malaysk V4 rom.
Still no luck.
I've sent a barrage of emails to the seller both on Ebay and through their official contact info on their site, still no luck.
What steps do we need to take to get this addressed?
To the DEVS, has the issue been identified in code? Is it a inherent problem in hardware or is it ROM related\MCU related?
Would love some answers, I know i'm not the only one experiencing this, plus it would help me determine if I should return this altogether if no FIX is possible...

This has already been identified in several posts on both this forum as well as manufacturer forums such as forum.carjoying.com
It would appear you did not search before you asked this question. Short answer, its an issue specific to MTCD based units that has already been reported to the manufacturer devs, as well as to Malaysk for his custom ROM, its not an easy fix, they are trying their best to resolve it.

I did see that as well @ Malaysk is aware.
I just don't see any consolidated place where this information is at. There should be a dedicated thread for such a inherent problem with MTCD units.
I have no checked out the forum.carjoying.com, have any links for me to check out?
Also, this is crucial for me because I only have 3 weeks left to return the unit.
As I said, you didn't search. There is already a dedicated thread for this problem here on XDA and in the MTCD section. Yours is redundant.

Hello Community;
New user trying to figure and udnerstand the new head unit i have purchased. Currently it is running Android 8 and i wanted to do my due-dilligance before playing around witht he firmware.
Avant 4 1024x600
Android Version 8.0
PX5-userdebug-8.0.0
MCUE_GS_V3.01_3
8core 64bit cpu cortex A53 @ 1.5
Few questions I had was;
are the components like the cpu, ram and main board upgradable? if so, I would appreciate some links i could refer too
Upgrading the firmware to Android Version 10. I can't seem to find a proper thread for my head unit. I did find for MCUD. would they be the same?
Thank you in advance.
Your unit isn't Android auto and you might need to take a little time to read the wiki and MTCD forums. Ive requested this q&a be moved to MTCD q&a.
Hope someone can help my joying headunit is only showing in 720p so not widescreen or anything
Shows though headunit reloaded correctly in widescreen and 1080p just wondering if anyone has a fix or a custom carlink apk
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.
There are are a small number of active members in these forums, you want to be posting in a way that helps those people help you, they're likely tired of answering the same questions for new users that join, get the answer (often unanswered) and then leave.
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.
I have a joyingauto 7862 10.1 1920*1200 unit can post a screenshot of the the device info and also what it looks like though carlink app
I'm used to an android ai box only just switched over to the full headunit
Tried searching but couldn't see anywhere

Update to the latest version of the Joying firmware. It's available on their site and it should fix it.
See attached. Also getting error when trying to update. Using the joying website firmware
Hi,hope this is the right thread. Has anyone got any experience with the Xtrons UI. Everything works as intended but for some reason the speedometer doesn’t work at all. I’ve tried all options. The gps signal is fine and all other apps show speed but not the speedometer in the ui itself
Hi new member.
Unfortunately no one here has a crystal ball to know what the unit is or even if installed correctly.
First point of contact ifor support is the seller - what do they suggest and what has been tried?
Which threads have been searched to identify the unit, were there no matches?
I mean I wasn’t asking for a crystal ball just maybe if someone had some experience or it was a simple settings option. Glad to see toxic forums are still a thing

No one nows what a xtrons ix is because it is a made up model, which could be any number of Chinese knockoffs. Anyone taking a few moments to read the forums likely realise that.
Calling toxic is nonsense, perhaps actively participating in community based forum is above your ability - First line of support is seller. But you're here because the seller is useless and you want someone to help with your low cost chinese knockoff.
The forum works by posting detail, no one here can know what the unit is, how it is connected, what the vehicle is. Calling the forums toxic won't get you any closer to solving your problem.
Is the unit MTCD - post Android System information including MCU version.
Also, steps you've tried, tested. If unable to do any of that, there's no hope your problem might be solved.
Sorry as I’m not a senior member on a forum I must struggle with basic communication functions obviously
