Steering wheel controls via CAN BUS reacts erradic - Android Head-Units

Iam using a CAN bus adapter to interface my swc with my headunit.
I see this erratic behaviour with my Hyundia i30 CW(2015):
- Volume up often results in volume up immediatly followed by a volume down
- Volume down often results in immediat mute
- next track results in mode change (radio- > DVD -> ...)
This does not happen on every press of a button the swc. But in about 60 percent of the presses this mess happens.
Does this happen to others too?
Anything to do about it?
Any ideas if i can check if the radio is interpreting something wrong or if its the can bus interface not working.
EDIT 1
Hmm it seems there is some more info regarding non working canbus interface here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...s-qa/swc-command-repeat-issue-vw-bus-t3247109
@mods sorry did not realize there is a QA sub Forum- Maybe someone can move this?

Help! Extra Setting and Steering Control Settings don't load No physical buttons work

Hi All
I have been reading these forums and generally googling day and night trying to work out what went wrong but haven't been able to solve it so far.
So by means of context I bought an android HU (Brand: Andream EW822P8QH) from aliexpress and was working flawlessly until about two weeks ago.
Details can be found aliexpress dot com /item/Octa-Core-2G-RAM-32G-ROM-Car-DVD-Player-Stereo-Android-7-1-Navigation-BT-For/32834839813.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3da24c4dDGESm4
It's running 7.1.2 and was running the CarWebGuru launcher, when apparently it asked for an update.
Since then, none of the physical buttons work. I've lost all steering wheel controls, so am now just reliant on the touch screen itself, so cannot control volume, etc.
Reading all forums, I understood that under Settings - Car Settings - Steering Control settings should allow you to reconfigure all the buttons once again. Unfortunately when I try to load it, the screen goes white, then goes back to the start of the Setting menu. (Interesting, I had a short cut to Steering Controls on my desktop, but again when I launch it, screen goes black then, back to the desktop
I thought there was something in Settings - Car Settings - Extra Settings, by pressing the code 123456, but once again the screen goes white and seems to go back to the start.
It just seems as though, both these settings areas are corrupted/ gone now.
Can anybody provide me with any clues on what I can get this working again?
Happy to do a factory reset, but nothing seems to happen through the Setting menu.
Was thinking is it even possible to install a new ROM etc. I would say while I've done this on my phone, never on a head unit so welcome any advice on which ROM and some guidance on steps.
Oh I can access the Settings - Dev Options by entering the code 7890 so do let me know if you want me to look at anything there. Interesting one last symptom, my navigation menu bar (by swiping down from top of the screen) no longer works., so definitely seems like something buggy is going on.
Thanks in advance to all who reply.

[Head Unit][8227][alps-mp-o1.mp5][TS907] Swc no more working

Hi, I have this chinese Android unit :
Model: 8227l
Build version: alps-mp-o1.mp5
Mcu: TS907.190518(W)
Mtc: ????????
Even if is some kind of fake, everything was working good, android auto with https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/mtcb-software-development/app-running-android-auto-unit-t3537547 , swc buttons, radio, audio, open doors alert, everything. But at a certain point, swc buttons stopped working. Now they work only in the stock swc configuration app, but then if you press buttons nothing happens, no volume up or down, no play/pause, nothing.
I tried to analyze the issue but everything is locked and I cannot even access adb....
Try to search a lot the forum and internet (russian forum ) but did no make any step forward.
I am a developer and would not be scared about writing some code for this unit (Mcu / Mtc) but need some hint regarding how to proceed with this issue.
Any help would be REALLY welcome, any suggestions?
hi, did yous solve this?

Hi.
I have the same version as you. Unfortunatly I can't help you. I just know that the swc are related to the canBus box.
But I would like to know if, by any chance, you have this HU installed in a Peugeot.
Do you have any idea what is this?

Hi!!! I would like to be a develloper as well! My unit is made of 2 parts: The radio and the Screen. Is installed (and perfectly fitting) a Peugeot 307 Phase 2 (I guess phase 1 are the cars with a smal display for temperature and time. Phase 2 are the cars that had a GPS originaly, and a upper screen - not a display). For me, the problem is that the software dont allow you to choose wich car type you have. I can select Peugeot 307 but not the type. My CanBus is HiWorld. It says 307, but not specific model. I would like this changes: When I press the button for OnBoard Computer, It should go to the trip menu. Also, the car Settings (like AC and door lock) are not working and they blink (selected, notSelected).
There is a miscomunication there. I cant find help!!!!

Xtrons PX5 - Volume keeps resetting

I have an Xtrons PX5 that was already installed in my vehicle when I bought it. Something strange is happening with the volume...
The volume slider in Android keeps resetting to 12 every time the unit is powered off and back on. I like to keep this higher (around 20 to 30) as it gives a higher level to my OEM head unit aux input.
It's kinda annoying that I have to increase the volume slider every time the vehicle is switched on. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Have also tried setting the volume in Settings -> volume but still it resets back to 12 every time.
I have the same issue, it's really annoying!
What does reseller suggest when contacted for support

Garry after having a good poke about I have fixed it. You need to set your default boot volume to 30, this is done by accessing the factory settings menu within the unit, then the setting is under the "Other" tab at the top right. you can also change the boot logo there also. see attached. PM me if you get stuck, I used the passcode of 126 to access this menu.

By the photos you posted this device is similar that I'm using in my car, TS10 or TS18 topway branded, it must have option to update system and MCU online, so do an update online (car settings/factory settings/update).
If updating does not help try calibration of screen (activated by pressing all five fingers on screen I think). There is no physical buttons on this device and it must have canbus box right ?

This is the main objective 4 me.
When I go to the config menu, press start the config and when press the button on steering wheel nothing happened.
Only volume works and the doors too... If I open a door a imagem pop up on the screen

Try it now please
which canbus settings was prior of changing ? SIMPLE or RAISE or HIWORLD ?
I think this wrong settings caused this. Rerturn old state but do not change first option , If canbus sticker on the box is simple then it is simple in first option - get it ? If it is something else choose this one and then choose software for device and model.

I have same problem but my unit is V1c 1G - after activating can bus it made APK installation and then the side buttons doesn't work. Here is a photo of unit which is for a Ford Focus MK2.5
Any help much appreciated
Chris
Choose right software for your device and canbus (read which canbus is from sticker on canbus box and then choose from list like if it is RAISE canbus in first section choose RAISE, then in second choose car model and then on next PUBLIC)

This is my can bus box - doesn´t tell anything about type of can bus. But is it related to can bus? My steering wheel buttons work but not the buttons on the head. I would imagine that it is something else.
Regards Chris
Here is a photo of the set up. Steering wheel buttons work, center console info works. Side buttons on head unit doesn't work.

Kunfine android 10.1 head unit

Hi all... i am not sure where to post this, because i am not sure what kind of head unit it is. All in know is that it is a Kunfine 10.1 android.
When I bought the unit, there use to be an option (when pushing the menu button on the steering wheel controls) to switch between navigation, music, video, radio or what ever i want to open whithout taking my hands off the steering wheel. But then all of a sudden it stopped doing it. Now if i press the menu button it goes to google. In fact the speech button, and both phone buttons on the steering wheel revert to the same (google). It is only the volume + and volume - and skip (Forward)(back) buttons that are working normally. i informed Kunfine and they said i have to configure the canbus.... I have tried it 100000000 of times. IT DOES NOT WORK. I have a Hiworld canbus and i drive a Toyota Hilux 2.4 GD6 2017model. There are no Hilux option when configuring... Please help if possible and if there is no option for the hilux in the configuration, what must i choose. I tried the Prado/Rav4 option.
Not Android Auto, requested moderator move to Android Head-Units forum.
Op, take time and enjoy xda.
Does anyone know what is going on? Why does this happen and what can i do to try and fix it.
