Hello. I have what perhaps is a dumb question. I have a JY model from AutoPumpkin running 4.4 (not rooted) in a VW Tiguan. It uses a CANBUS connection. And every once and awhile, the climate control info displays on the screen. Normally, this info should only display at start up or if you change the climate control setting. But it seems to appear rather randomly on my device. Sometimes, you can go 30 minutes without anything. Sometimes, it can occur 3 or 4 times in a 15-minute period. I've noticed that it seems to happen more often when I'm in stop and go traffic. But generally it is random. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Thank you.

Hello everyone.
People, I recently bought a car radio of Joying brand. The model is the JY-UQ130U with RK3188 1.6 GHz processor, 7-inch screen, 1024x600 resolution.
Anyway, I'm having a problem with this car radio. Every time I turn off my car for a longer time, for example thirty minutes or more, the radio information is reset (time, date and presets radio stations).
Is there anything that can be done in this case? Is there any way to prevent this from happening?
Taking the opportunity, it is possible (and recommended) to make the car radio works with the car turned off and without putting the key in the ACC position I?
Thank you very much.
I hope you can help me.
You have it wired wrong. One of the cables require 12V when the cars switch is off. The other 12V power wire wired to be off when the switch is off. The clock requires constant power. Probably reversed the 2 12V wire.
Not a radio problem.
Joying 10.1 with 6.1 update
96 lexus ls400 with 6.0.1 marshmallow started having serious issues. First, the display won't turn off. It continues running even if the car is off with no key in ignition and the car is locked. Also the buttons and screen light up but the buttons don't work at all, not even the power button on the detatchable face or the reset button next to it. Also, the USB connections don't work so I can install my photos videos or music via usb...what the heck is going on? I haven't had the unit for a year yet and I take excellent care of all my belongings especially my cars. The manufacturer takes a year and a day to respond and hardly speak clear even in messages so I'm lost. No warranty either. I've tried everything except returning it or buying a new one or taking it apart.
Weird issue here and I need help! And I think I may have somehow did this with settings but I've been through all the settings and can't find anything. Thinking of doing a reset tomorrow, but im scared to do that. If it doesn't fix the issue I may lose my mind.
Background:
I have had my OL-6666F about a week. After wiring it up in the car (a 2012 Sonata) the first few days were great everything was perfect. I didn't have a lot of time to mess with it beyond soldering everything up with a wiring harness. Thurs/Fri I had more time and played around with adding more apps, playing around with settings, and setting up the steering wheel controls. This is when the problem started.
Issue:
Any time my car is at a FULL stop the headunit screen goes blank. It's not off, it is on as I can see light but the screen is blank, all keys on the HU stop working, as well as the steering wheel controls. However, if I had the radio or iheartradio, or nav going... the sound will reduce but continue to play. I can't control the volume at all. The very second the car begins to move forward or backwards, the screen pops back to where ever it was. I even tried it with youtube today. Youtube would pause the video/sound instead of continue playing like the other apps. Soon as the app came back, I pressed play and it resumed like nothing happened. I've tried creeping forward, I've tried using neutral, and I've tried reverse. I've tried sitting with my foot off the brake and the car in neutral. Nothing happens until the car begins to move then bang its perfect again. Also today I turned the screen off by pressing the display knob which clearly turns the screen completely off. When I stopped the screen changed to the blank but on screen. When I began moving the screen went back to where it was before I turned off the display.
WTH could cause this? I cant think of any settings I changed which have anything to do with being stopped. How does it even know I am stopped!? GPS? I did not connect the "brake" wire to anything. It is covered in electrical tape.
I can take a video of this if needed. It happens every time I stop without fail.
Do you have a canbus harness adapter? Did you accidentally connect the reverse input on the radio to a parking brake/zero speed wire of the canbus adapter?
I do not have a canbus harness. I used a Scosche Radio Wiring Harness (021HY12B).
After yanking it back out a few minutes ago this is exactly what I did. I mapped the pink reverse wire from radio to the also pink "speed signal from vehicle" in the Scosche harness. WOW. I'm glad you replied cause it made me question myself. Works perfect now.
I'm going to be shaking my head at myself for a while.
Hello XDA members,
I have been following XDA for almost a decade and now came my time to ask for a help.
I bought few months ago XTRONS D717AL. First of all, great player, awesome radio tuner. Catches many stations I couldn't with my old Audiovox and Clarion. It comes With Adroid 5.1.1 and Intel chip. Model number says: Full AOSP on Sofia. MCU Ver: HY_SFY170224EF.
But since day one I noticed a weird display actions. Radio starts right after I start the car engine, display pops-up and on random basis, sometimes the display lights up, sometimes not. It takes about 20sec to load the OS and apparently, the touch screen is working. I know where the Quick settings are, if I pull the top navigation panel down when the screen is in a working state. There is a Light button, which enlights or darkens the screen.
In a dark state (blank), if a pull the navigation panel down when the screen is dark and press the Screen button, screen enlights. I know approximately where this Light button is and pressing it screen enlights. That makes me think, that the screen darkness goes to value 0 at some point before even the OS load.
I have rear camera and DVR attached, but since I took everything away today except the ISO wiring harness, it makes me think that these AV in signals are not the issue. I even took away the reverse camera control cable, illumination cable, and GPS antenna. Brake In cable is fine attached.
Last week I tried to factory reset the unit – no luck.
Flashed with a firmware from the Xtrons tech support – no luck.
I recorded a video today which I uploaded on youtube (I can't post links yet, too young to do that )
Search "XTRONS D717AL Screen Problem".
If anybody ran into such a problem and a solution, will be much appreciated to share here.
Many thanks.
Edit: I just noticed, that upon switching off the radio, the dark display flashes for a half second on its way going in. Possible display cable issue?

I have never tried to go to recovery of this unit. But, I found another topic here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...button-combination-to-enter-recovery-t3391682
Regarding my problem, I returned the unit and it was replaced with a new one since it is still in warranty period.
I've attached the specs in an image.
First impressions, it works great. Had a minor issue where switching from reverse back to neutral the HU froze and a restart was needed.
A slight issue that I have is that the Next-Previous steering wheel buttons are reversed. The app that was supposed to allow me to remap them(Wheelkey something) does not register anything(or I don't know how to use it). On youtube they just press the buttons and they appear there. On mine they do not.
I've sent them an email asking for updates, no reply yet.
Has anyone rooted this? Are there any custom roms?
Just got a reply back from them, new update for it, https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjrY0uqbW_kBhDPefE7q_QGpje-M
I have a similar model, but labeled a Seicane; MTCE_GS_V2.78_3. I wonder if that update would work for mine...not daring enough to try.
Have you had any issues with random volume increases when turning on? It appears to happen randomly and has nothing to do with the volume setting (except when it is '0'). It is going to blow out my ear drums...and speakers. After restarting, all is good for a period of time.
From what I've read here, the MCU update should work as long as it's the same (MTCE and GS). With the Android update it's a bit tricky, the CPU and resolution of the screen must be the same. I had no issues with the volume setting, but then again, I only did small city trips since I installed it.
I've just bought this unit, so I'll check my MCU as well. I cannot get the wheelkey app to work at all, but the steering controls do work.
As described in the title, the last year i've bought a Chinese Android Head unit, already after a couple of days after buying it, the unit, after some drive, started tuning off and on repeatedly (just the screen and audio) and the only solution was turning off and on the car so that the unit would reboot. Surprisingly the issue stopped happening after a couple of times, my thoughts was that the system was trying to updated some drivers or something like that, but now after a year, the issue appeared again and after about 30/40 minutes the issue stopped, without rebooting the unit. Then the issue appeared again while on a trip, and even after 1 hour the issue was still there, and when i turned off the car, the unit didn't turn off as it should when removing the key from the ignition, but surprisingly, the issue was gone! When i turned on the engine again, all the canbus functions where gone, opened doors, clima control info and other data from the car weren't showing anymore, but the issue was gone, also the touch buttons backlight wasn't turning on.
In order to turn off the unit, i have removed the fuse, when the unit rebooted again everything come back to normal. To better understand the issue, i attached a video.

Check your yellow, red, or black wire. I got a similar problem
I am having a similar problem. Mine turns off when you start the car. I checked the red and yellow but they both have power. Turned off it works great.
