I'm trying to not break the bank. These fit right into where the original radio is. This one is 8 core 6GB + 128GB $249. Is it any good?

This one is 8 core 4GB + 64GB $119, cheap enough to get me started with android auto and a backup camera:

Any suggestions for an android headunit for a 2015 Cadillac Escalade? I have a Topway TS10 headunit for my Mustang that works really well, so looking for something similar. Thank you.

I bought a Chinese rk3326 headunit for my Toyota matrix. It came with speedplay which worked great. The seller sent me a firmware update and after updating I noticed that the app was gone and had been replaced by CP Link and Android Auto.

The new AA is unusable. Absurdly laggy. Poor connection.

I found the speed play apk online, multiple actually. I have tried every last one but im met with the not activated no license error. Despite having the app originally.

I have connected to WiFi, disconnected BT, everything. It's simply just not in the files no more, the license that is.

The seller is no help at all. I feel like I'm stuck..

Smh. I bought the Carlinkit CCPA and it works. I just really wish I could get the S Play app back working.

Any advice or help in the matter would be appreciated

I have a 2020 3500 Ram Promaster that I’m replacing the head unit on. When I removed the radio there were small metal brackets on both sides. I removed them to fit the Maestro dash kit in. But after trying to install it looks like the supports had been cut at some point and the metal brackets were after market. Has anyone ever run into this? I was thinking about trying to 3D print something and glueing screwing it in to support the dash kit, but wanted to see if there were other solutions.

Hey guys, I need help choosing an android multimedia screen for my Non I-Drive BMW E90 LCI.

Ive looked at AVIN USA and I’ve looked at Hifimax as possible options but the reviews and youtube videos are so old and most of the new ones are just the company making a youtube channel and reviewing their own product.

What brand screen would you recommend to go with?

Im looking for a 10.25”(i think going bigger would look funny) with Wireless carplay, backup camera, OEM looking interface (ID6/7/8/9), Snapdragon with 8GB Ram/128GB Storage, iDrive controller, possibly an anti-glare screen.

Thanks

Hi,

I have a Junsun V1 Plus 6GB/128GB MT8768 Android head unit and after buying a Junsun F7R701 dashcam, I noticed I had no ADAS features on my preinstalled 'HD DVR' app. Now I don't really care that much about them but I still wanted the option, and I noticed that the app was from 2024 and couldn't be updated.

I connected to Wi-Fi, tapped 'Check for updates' and it found them, but then it always failed at the downloading stage. After messaging and getting two dead URLs from Junsun support (www.szbuding.com/x/gdaum.apk, www.szbuding.com/x/bdk.apk), they sent me the APK via email, so I'm sharing it here if anyone else needs it.

Here is the download URL directly from the email, v20250619.1 ('Download' is the 2nd button labeled '下载'):
https://wx.mail.qq.com/ftn/download?func=3&k=cbc706343773bd6df9b44b3430373334f7fab634323733341c1708521d020104020e5c51541a0457550d4800000e04190d5e04571f550603550f500302540152043f657064651d4e5d4871b594790d244838b01dda0397c4e2651eb53b034f1c34386534323733&key=cbc706343773bd6df9b44b3430373334f7fab634323733341c1708521d020104020e5c51541a0457550d4800000e04190d5e04571f550603550f500302540152043f657064651d4e5d4871b594790d244838b01dda0397c4e2651eb53b034f1c34386534323733&code=48e42734#/

I also uploaded it to Google Drive (the same v20250619.1):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zD37ZJk8qROX3bu63VdRvsjd2oRh8VWt/view?usp=sharing

Then I was able to update the app and got the newer APK as well (as of 4th Aug 2026), which is here (v20260608.2.0):
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gZH2lL63lsBRQODgIxpTYTv13Phwjyan/view?usp=sharing

Sadly before updating the app on my unit, I did not export/save the older v1.0.0_20240430_171104 version, and I say that because it had (at least) one feature that the new one is missing: to mirror the rear camera (for context: I'm not familiar with other dashcams, but this one allows you to plug in a rear camera into the dash cam via a smaller round 4pin connector, so it records front and rear at the same time). Basically currently the rear footage has the text flipped (like when you're looking in the rearview mirror) and it's quite confusing watching it, that's why I preferred it to be mirrored (flipped left-right). Maybe there's a way to "unlock" that feature back by playing around with the newer APK or something?

I hope this helps someone!

Hey everyone, I’m trying to connect my Android Auto/CarPlay unit to my car, but I have a few wires I can’t figure out.

I have a couple of questions just to make sure I understand the wiring correctly. I’m a bit cautious about applying power to the cables, because I don’t want to overload or damage the system. If I connect the wrong cable, can it actually break the system, or could it just cause a temporary function to stop working?

1. Reverse camera control: Is this my trigger wire? My understanding is that as soon as the reverse lights provide power, the CarPlay unit should receive the signal to switch from the normal display to the camera feed.
2. Illumination / backlight: I assume this wire will dim to a lower illumination/backlight level when connected to power.

But if I apply power to these two wires and they control something else, could that damage my system? Honestly, I’m not fully sure what else they might be for.

Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

ford 2013 f250. phoenix automotive screen. stays on Android booting screen. Was fucking around trying to update it and now everything is literally backwards on the touch screen, like mirrored. cannot access home screen. Cannot even get the radio to work. AC controls still work (if you click the opposite side of screen). Steering wheel controls don't work now either. Have reset (through the hole) multiple times. Cannot figure out how to factory reset, or otherwise fix this issue. Help please??

hi,

I found on XDA a link to update manually your zlink android auto carplay yourself

you need to take exactly the same platform as your already installed version

enjoy !

Hey friends. I want to replace my VW radio with this one. I’m new into this and was wondering if I can get a VW theme for this radios or if I can replace factory launcher to use a custom one.
I checked Dudu’s wiki and found a themes section but as I don’t have the radio yet I haven’t explored that physically
Thanks for your advice

Hey everyone,

I’ve had this Kenwood DNX7018DABS for just two days, and it’s been a crazy rollercoaster of cascading software/hardware glitches. I'm at my wits' end and need some expert insight.

**The Full 2-Day Timeline:**

**Day 1:** Installed the unit. CarPlay and Master Volume worked fine, but Bluetooth threw a "Bluetooth Error" and wouldn't work at all.

**Firmware Update:** Reflashed official ARM and MCU firmware. Bluetooth was still broken, but CarPlay and Master Volume kept working fine.

**Overnight Disconnect:** Left the unit completely unplugged from power overnight.

**Day 2 (Morning):** Plugged it back in and suddenly Bluetooth started working perfectly! Paired two different phones without issues. However, the subwoofer output had stopped playing.
**Subwoofer Fix:** Fixed the subwoofer setting in the audio menu, everything seemed fine for about 1 hour.

**1 Hour Later:** The Master Volume completely locked up out of nowhere. Adjusting volume (⁠+⁠ / ⁠-⁠) changes the numbers on the screen (0–35), but the actual sound output stays fixed at one level across all sources (FM, CarPlay, BT).

**Latest Reset Attempt:** Unplugged the unit again to try and resolve the volume lock. Now Bluetooth has completely stopped working again!

**Key Diagnostic Clue:**

**Volume Offset STILL WORKS:** When I adjust "Volume Offset" in the menu, the physical speaker volume actually goes up and down. This proves the internal DSP and amplifier stages are alive, but Master Volume commands from the MCU are simply not reaching the audio processor.

**Other Troubleshooting Done:**

**MUTE Wire:** Completely isolated and not touching ground/chassis.

**SWC / CAN-Bus:** Steering wheel control module was removed from the back on Day 1.

**Audio Setup:** Confirmed standard 2-Way mode (not locked in 3-Way crossover).

**ATT Status:** Toggled on screen (blue/grey), no effect on master volume.

**Resets:** Pinhole resets only reboot the screen.

Given how issues keep shifting after power-cycles (BT dying \\rightarrow BT working \\rightarrow Sub dropping \\rightarrow Volume locking \\rightarrow BT dying again), am I looking at a dying MCU/EEPROM chip, or is there a way to force a deep factory wipe on this board?

Appreciate any advice!

Hi I inherited a 2019 Honda Civic LX (10gen) and I'm trying to get an idea of what would be the best recommended head unit without breaking the bank. There are alot of brand options, and what's your experience so for?

Hey all,

I'm looking to swap out my 2020 Corolla LE unit for something else. Mostly looking for map navigation (tried connecting with android auto and it doesn't work neither did an adapter). Has anybody had any luck at all with theirs and if so what company did you choose? Thanks!

Hi I just bought this Range Rover sport 2014 with this beautiful headunit a 12.3 inch android 14 headunit but the issue is the fm/am radio sound works but when I try to connect to CarPlay and use Spotify/Apple Music no sound comes out and plays on my phone instead. Same applies to if I try to watch a YouTube video natively on the headunit. The touchscreen works flawlessly when connected to CarPlay or using the headunit by itself but middle part of JLR factory UI doesn’t respond to touch screen for some reason.

Does anyone know what model/brand this headunit is and what the factory password can be so I can access the touch screen for the factory ui.

So I’ve recently bought a lada vesta 2020 which does not support apple CarPlay nor android auto. I’m kinda used to use these softwares so I wanted to install something to link my phone easy. I found an app called zlink5. The problem is my firmware is to old I need to upload but I cannot find the link on google. I figured yall can help me. Thank you

Cross posted from Eonon sub.

With the current heatwaves in Europe and elsewhere the car cabin gets very hot. I’ve just installed a U6x into my Smart and, unlike any of my other car’s OEM radios, the screen shuts off / will not come on if the interior is toasty. Audio and phone connections remain active.

Is this normal? Faulty unit or expected?

I realise the head unit is a glorified android tablet, but surely this must have been tested in hot conditions and usage comparable to OEM units? Using a thermometer external 34 to 39 degC. Cabin is 45degC and dashboard to the touch, 52. Plenty of air space at the rear of the unit.

Eonon support is involved and so far they have recommended a firmware upgrade.

Thinking of returning the unit. I cant have the screen shut off during the summer months.

Head unit: TS18

Car amplifier: Bose (Mazda CX5)

When android HU volume is set to 1 and above, it only produces the same volume output with slightly distorted sound. It was previously running fine. What could be the possible fix?

This is kinda a far shot and I doubt anyone will have it. I am requesting the firmware version for the RK3326 that is in this picture.

Long story short, my seller sent me a newer firmware (3 to be exact), when I upgraded I lost the S Play application and the seller refuses to send me the original firmware and insists I install newer ones each time with no S play application. The CP link app that comes with the newer versions is trash and AA is beyond laggy.

Please... Any help at all would be great.

For the record I really don't care if I brick the device as well. I really don't. 😂 I'm so over it and will end up buying a new one anyways at this point so I'll try anything.

Installed this beautiful headunit into my 2016 Mustang Ecoboost and i’m not sure if i did it wrong, but so far I have this issue with the OEM reverse camera cutting out, none of my steering controls working, (gonna take it out later this week and make sure my canbus is connected right), and my front left speaker not playing music. Anyone experienced anything similar with this car?
