Joying releases 5.1.1 update for its Headunits - Android Head-Units

http://www.carjoying.com/Joying-blog/12.html
Anybody try this on their unit so far? Fix any issues?

not yet but waiting for xtrons to be confirmed.
cheers

Interesting! Will see if I can install over the weekend

Actually they haven't yet. They are still beta testing it. Official release date is mid March.

Did they ever release the update?

Not that I'm aware of.

Looking at carjoying forum: http://www.forum.carjoying.com/thread-15.html
they write:
We tested the Android 5.1.1 lollipop firmware to upgrade android 4.4.4 kitkat, then the screen is black, coreboard is broken.
So we will offer hardware(motherboard and coreboard) and software to Joying customers to upgrade unit.
So, don't try to update your 4.4 unit with 5.1 rom...

Well that sucks. Wonder how much that is going to cost. I find it odd that their hardware cannot be made to work w/ 5.1

Its all about the SoC Rockchip 3. Most all of these units are using Rockchip SoC.

The forum on their site made it sound like these hardware upgrades will be offered for FREE as they've been advertising all their systems will get the 5.1 update. Would be pretty incredible so I guess we'll see what happens.

I'll believe that when I see it. My bet is they make you ship it to them knowing full well it is cost prohibitive to try to mitigate all the losses they'd see.

Interesting reading through that thread, they claim the update will burn out something?
Sounds like they figured out they can't really deliver a decent Lollipop on Rk3188 and now they're backtracking. Don't be surprised if you need to buy a new board with a different SoC.

Is 5.1.1 really that much more powerful that it's physically burning up the hardware trying to run?

no. Most phones can upgrade from 4.4.4 to 5.1 w/o a problem. In fact I don't know one that can't.

I thought so - what's the problem here?

Rockchip have never done the development work for the RK3188 to run anything other than Kitkat.
They released newer chips, such as the RK3288, and that is where they are focusing.
The Linux kernel on most RK3188 boards will be something like 3.0.36 and that just doesn't cut it for newer versions of Android.
Sure you could hack around and make it work, but it's not easy and that's why almost no-one has done it.

Yeah MCU looks different, and i bet "MCTD" instead of "MCTB" means that there is also some minor hardware upgrades, needed to run lollipop on a poor JY RK3188...

That image shows a kernel version lower than is typical for Lollipop. Actually, it's lower than typical for KitKat also.

New Joying Head Unit? Tweeted Dec 5 2015

I saw this tweet
https://twitter.com/carjoying/status/673061917242564608
I can't seem to find any additional info. I just bought the currently available one so I'm really interested to see if this new one is updated android and PX4 Rockchip.
Anyone know more?
I like the higher volume button. Out of the way.
I also just had an interaction with Joying where they indicated they will have an universal 10" single din model like their VW model ready in 2 weeks.
So from my reading of Joying's stereos, these are all basically the same, but with a differently designed front on them? I see the same Android version, processor and specs on every one, really. I'm asking because I'm curious about getting one and am a little overwhelmed with options that all seem about the same.
There are different cpu specs and resolutions. Some of the units are car specific due to some integrations like the VW units with can-bus showing heat and a/c info etc. If they have a unit that is specific for your can then it probably has a nice faceplate on it. Otherwise there are the universal units.
I consider to get one for my car, so I have to wait for new version
how are teh joying units, they got them on amazon which is abig plus if theres any issues
Cool! Thanks for sharing. Have an older model and it has been pretty solid so far. Might pick up a new one for the spare car Hopefully the Bluetooth quality is fixed with the updated unit.

The 2015 model is now on their website and amazon too for $330ish.... XDA won't let me post the link right now cuz I never post.....
There's also a forum about upgrading the unit to 5.1 with software provided by Joying... I may have to order one now...
The new ones are not out yet. A few days ago they let me know the 10.1" universal unit is coming in the next week or two.
Many units on their site say 2015.
Is 1gb fast enough for these units?
I have not had any issues with mine
Plenty responsive. Boots up quick too.
what about bluetooth and wifi quality? Are hardware mods still required with these unit?
I don't know about the newest model being released, but the Bluetooth quality with the model I have does have a hint of distortion. I use a hotspot on my phone without any signal problems, so can't speak to the signal strength with trying to connect to a wifi access point.
How are they selling a 10" model? What car would that ever fit in without huge customization of the entire dash panel?
Bought it

I was thinking the same thing... Also, rk3188 is getting old. Most of the Android TV boxes have moved onto newer processors and Android.

Proven and more or less stable., abundant and inexpensive. Parts on hand. Also, when the new new board show up its not hard to simply swap them.
Sure, we want new and better every week. I'm happy to have this form factor now rather than waiting for 5.1.. Simple upgrade later.

This is not about wanting new every week...KitKat is 2 and half years old...Lollipop has been out for a year an a half....Lollipop should be the bare minimum when they ship devices these days, ....and 1gb RAM on any device in the year 2016 is just plain insulting.

Respectfully, I think you are being a little naive. Many of the manufacturers are working on the next full iteration of chips and 5.1 or 6 OS versions, but do you see many yet? It only takes a card swap on the head unit to change the SOC... and really the SOC and Android version has nothing to do with most of the hardware of these headunits. Take a look at the wide range of products a company like Joying offers. Pretty slick range of OEM looking faceplates and integrations with CAN bus etc. Truthfully, many of these companies are limited by what Rockchip and the subs provide for them.
You should definitely feel personally insulted. What were they thinking?! How could they develop a product without consulting devoidx?! :silly:

Does there exist a Android 5.1+ and 2GB RAM head unit that isn't terrible?

It doesn't seem like it's possible to find something with Android 5.1 (or later) and 2GB RAM. The only one I can find is the InDashNet unit except that one seems to still be in beta and buggy.
Doesn't anyone make something with 2GB RAM and a modern release of the OS? Getting real sick of my AppRadio issues, but I don't want to deal with the headache of 1GB RAM or an old OS.

These are legitimate concerns, I've been reading the forums and still haven't come to any solid conclusions yet either.

First listing doesn't specify which version of Android it is running. The second one says it's running 4.4. That's too old. I want 5.1 or later and 2GB RAM. That combination doesn't seem available.

As far as I know, they are not upgradable to 5.1. Only if you do a hardware upgrade/downgrade to an MTCD mainboard with 1GB RAM you can upgrade to Android 5.1.
So it seems there is an incompatibility between 2GB and Android 5.1 or there is some software development necessary to allow this... I think I saw a statement from Joying that they are working on it...
There is no comparability issue with 2gigs of ram and Android 5.x
Its called cheap. They want to reduce the cost of the hardware.

my guess is it's a MCU limitation. I am pretty certain RAM would not be a software (android) limitation. But the MCU is effectively a black box on these things that impacts just about every aspect of overall functionality. And the fact that the MCU hacked together by chinese/indian engineers with very low R&D budgets, we have the issues we have today. Someone needs to open source the MCU and allow it to be fully customizable somehow. I imagine the community here could come up with some fantasic mods, such as digital audio out, support for better internal hardware, better bluetooth integration, etc.
I am surprised that for this long, nobody has managed to fully decode the MCU.

They usually standard MCU chips. Someone would have to completely recode a working source. Which would be really impossible. I agree it would be nice to see one full MCU source code.

They write RAM: 1G. Several times in the description.
The problem with sellers on Aliexpress is that they even confuse RAM and ROM and falsely write 2GB RAM in title although everywhere in the article it says RAM 1GB.

Ownice c200 is definitely only 4.4 at the moment.
We where promised an update but we still haven't had it.
Since then they released the c300 but it has only 1gb and still only 4.4
The reason they say it's only 1gb is it has a different cpu (not an rk chip like every other unit)
They still sell the c200 so i don't think they are dropping it.
Long story short. No 2gb lollipop at the moment. I've settled for 4.4 myself but i got my unit 18 months ago.

Too small of a market. Despite what you might gather from these forums, this is a very low quantity, niche market, and the active participants want things at rock bottom prices. US production costs, especially for such a small market, just aren't economically viable.
Honestly, If you aren't satisfied with the current crop of units (and I'm not), then your best bet is going to be some type of DIY project. I've got a Raspberry PI 3 and a SDR sitting on my workbench waiting to be worked on. You might also consider some variety of tablet install (I'm kind of torn between going this route and the rpi3).
But regardless of DIY, Chinese Headunit, whatever, this will ultimately boil down to software. Without a well thought out, extensible front end/UI, it will continue to be frustrating. Such software would be awesome if opensource, but I have my doubts. The in-dash-net units are supposed to be going that route, but I'm not holding my breath.

The funny thing about the software, is that all the different specialized parts of the software actually exist already in open source. The biggest hurdle is actually handling a phone call. The "back end" of this process, bluetooth HFP-client profile, is available in AOSP. There is a "demo" application for actually managing that backend available in codeaurora.
Aside from that, you also have AM/FM radio to think about, but that is fairly simple.
Honestly, the biggest part of this problem is the hardware.

Ownice C500 released

somebody buy this and review it
There seem to be 2 models in C500, universal one is 4 core and no DVD and cheaper. The DVD unit is 8 Core CPU and is almost double the price, I would wait for the 8 core to come up in Universal unit and then try
Sadly, they seem to have removed the volume knob (which was still present on the C300). I was looking forward to this, but now it seems like I have to look elsewhere - I won't buy a device on which I can't change the volume without looking at it.
.deleted.
Associated with the manufacturer says that you can buy with С500 on 11/11/2016. There are big discounts.
I am a bit disappointed, the hardware is great but why don't they increase the memory to 3 or 4gb mem, a octa core uses more memory because there are more cores. And why no 32gb internal storage, every time the Android releases a new os, it grows, so there is less space for other things to store it on the 16gb storage. And does the GPS also support GLONASS and GALILEO?

These are the second Android 6.0 units I've seen that have Kitkat UI elements like the navbar at the top and the launcher tabs.
Makes me wonder if these are really 6.0 or if they are a hybrid of all sorts of older pieces stuck together.

In all likelihood it's some terrifying mix of Android 4.4, 5.1, and 6.0. Am currently considering buying an Ownice C500 Android 6.0 unit for a future car purchase (BMW E90 or E92). When it happens I'll create a video review and forum post. Am incredibly curious to see if the "4G LTE SIM Support" actually works with Verizon.

Which Android head unit?

Hi,
I am currently looking for a new Android 6 double din head unit to fit in my car. After many hours of research and price comparison, I finally have picked 2 (actually 3) devices to choose from.
On the one hand there is the Ownice C300 (either as quad core (200€) or as the octa core (300€) version). I think their specs are known because there are already a lot of threads concerning these units. Its unique feature is the built-in 4G modem.
The other alternative is the Zeepin DY7098 which you can get for approx. 170€. Apparently, it has an Intel SofiaGR3 SoC, supports fast boot and has a built-in 3G modem. Other specs are quite similar to the C300: same display resolution, 2GB RAM.
As far as I've read in other threads, the Intel SoC should be faster than most of other quad core SoCs (and maybe also than the octa core), because the other chips use slow Cortex A7 cores. The unit should be fast enough for navigation, radio and OBD bluetooth. I definitely don't want to use it for games.
Maybe someone knows the Zeepin device, which is currently my favorite, because of its looks and the low price.
Any opinion or experience is highly appreciated
Hi, I would be also interested in the Zeepin device, did you order it? Does anyone know anything about that device?
If I were you I would buy an unit that has a good XDA community because all the Chinese units have software issues and with XDA can remedy some if not all of them.
The support from manufacturer is rarely good (but there are exceptions, Joying was the exception for me), in my experience was poor or simply non-existent.
Yes, I ordered the Zeepin unit. I hope it will be delivered next week so that I can install it on the weekend. The main reason, I bought it is that it is only half the price of comparable Joying devices (they have no modem included, so this adds to the total costs). And the Zeepin device is also distributed under the "Pumpkin" brand, at least here in Germany and their devices have pretty good reviews on amazon.
I will give you an update as soon as possible.

Would also like to hear a review of the unit if you get the chance.
m using DY7098. its good purchase. only issue m facing during up gradation of android version. I even cant login to the boot option also.
looking for any suggestion in this regards.
So far I can say that the unit is pretty good. The boot time is only 2 seconds and the unit is very responsive in general. The build quality as well as the sound quality are very good. Everything works fine (Bluetooth, GPS, 3G).
The only thing is that it came with Android 5.1 on it, although the product description says ot is Android 6. I need to check how to update the device.
However, I can highly recommend it, especially considering the low price.

Hi yonaz77, I also want to buy this Zeepin DY7098. It looks realy nice and the price is perfect.
I hope you don't mind to help me with some questions.
Did you find a way to update the firmware to Android 6.0?
Did you try this built in 3G modem? Is it working fine? Do you know what kind of frequencies is it using?
Hi!
No i did not find a way to update the device. But as far as the software is working fine, I don't really care that much.
3G is working fine for me, but I dont know the feequencies. Only issue is that I sometimes get an interference with my car speakers.
I'm also running Zeepin DY7098 with Android 6 on board, however my unit can't read any USB devices. Has someone run into the same problem as well?

I'm also running Zeepin DY7098 with Android 6.0.1. I have the exact same problem. It can't read USB devices. but phone charges through USB ports.
Anyone know how to update the MCU version on the device.
@kozunio12 @dsandun Did you receive the unit with Android 6.0.1 installed on the device or did you update it? Because mine came with Android 5.1.1 and I am looking for a possibility to update it...

It came with the Android 6.0.1 installed.
Today I managed to do the update. I found the ROM here on XDA in this thread: Click
Just update the Android and leave the MCU as it is. The update took about 20 minutes, but everything went fine.

So far I can say that the unit is pretty good. The boot time is only 2 seconds and the unit is very responsive in general. The build quality as well as the sound quality are very good. Everything works fine (Bluetooth, GPS, 3G).
The only thing is that it came with Android 5.1 on it, although the product description says ot is Android 6. I need to check how to update the device.
However, I can highly recommend it, especially considering the low price.

No problem after update to Marshmallow? Do you need to root device before update? The update file is 24 April 2017 - 3G only?
You noted some improvement?
I'm using Zeepin DY7098 Adroid 5.1.1 works fine but sometimes the 3g not works and I need to reboot.

Which HU is best and most reliable / fast with 2gb RAM / Android 6+ / Google Voice?

As the title says.
I believe my Intel Joying is dieing.
I already have a heatsink and fan but it is becoming slower and slower and almost unusable. Music from any source is very choppy and frequent drop outs. I was going to try to upgrade the O.S. but if this doesnt work Im going to have to move on to a replacement. What is the best in the market right now? I don't care about price, I have had about 3 of these things already, I need something that is going to last for more than a year.
Also what about just biulding one out of an Intel Motherboard into a Pico ITX ?
Bumped - because I'd like to know also.
I'm currently looking for a good AA-HU, but I don't know what I'm looking at as far as brand reliability, support, quality, updates, rooting... etc.
Thanks anybody!

Those "Android 8" units are just MTCD PX5's, and they're NOT Android 8. They're faked.
Give this a good look over;

And anticipate that much of that will be upstreamed to AOSP
My atoto a6 2gb has been working great. I've only has it for a few weeks but no major compliants.
What are you guys trying to do with the headunit? Mines run as good as any Android tablet.
