Hi guys,
My old Android head unit got touch screen broken so I'm looking for a new one.
My car is Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 120, 2005, with a JBL amplifier, but I already have a CANBUS decoder from my old android head unit.
Can you recommend a unit that will work with a rear view camera (RCA), car recorder (USB) and has possibly least number of issues?
And a seller (preferably tomtop, gearbest, banggood or aliexpress)?

Thanks for recommendation, but this is a 2-DIN unit, and I need one specific for Toyota Prado to integrate nicely with my dashboard. I didn't find one like that from Joying.

Hi everyone, I’m new to this forum. I know a bit about Volvo (the older ones!), and Volvo head units, but not about Chinese Android head units.
I’m considering replacing the aging head unit of my (also aging!) 2002 Volvo V70. The head unit is a simple HU 603, so no Dolby, center speaker or extra amplifier. I’m looking at Xtrons TA702P (quad core) or TB706PL (octa core). I prefer a 7 inch touch screen, no knobs, no DVD. But navi should be good, as would radio. Music I can play through usb. And my Elephone S7 (Android 7.1) phone should mirror on the unit if possible.
Other functions like back up camera or steering wheel control are not important to me.
I know how to take the HU 603 out. I know I need an adapter harness to connect with the new unit. And a fascia adapter. All that is available.
My questions:
Xtrons has many car/model specific head units (not for Volvo). They have Canbus decoders supplied with the unit. Not so for the TA702P or the TB706PL. Will that give problems? (The answer from the ebay seller is somewhat useless: ‘Both the TB706PL and the TL702P does not come with the canbus so that you just ignore it.’) Anyone has experience with this?
How are user experiences with these modern Xtrons units? I know, ‘you get what you pay for’, I know that. But still, worth the money?
Units from Kenwood or Pioneer are other options, but again, is it worth it?
Thanks!
Hi there
I own and drive a V70 from 2006. I have replaced the original HU with a SONY 2 DIN unit (XAV-V630BT). This unit has great sound. I also swapped the speakers to JBL. It is totally worth it.
I have a CANbus to resistor unit. This makes it possible to use the steering wheel buttons.
Right now i am testing a Android HU. Unfortunately i have bought the wrong one. The unit is full of bad design choices. The sound integration in the unit is bad. I think that radio, BLUETOOTH and AUX sound runs directly to the sound processor. This means that when the Android unit plays a sound, the sound from the other units are turned off. In my opinion the other source should just fade a little.

Hi there
As said, I don't need steering wheel controls, my steering wheel doesn't even have the buttons. Must have been a cheapskate first owner!
Does this mean the Canbus only affects steering wheel control? So ignoring Canbus (no resistor as in your case), will give no problems?
And yes, by now I've found out Android units may not have the best sound quality. Or radio reception.

Hello folks,
I bought cheap PX3 Android unit MTCE_LM, but need for upgrading TDA7388 amplifier with the TDA7850 amplifier.
Android is working, updated with Malaysk and MTCE_LM_V3.67d, works with the car via CAN BUS.
As it comes without harness, I need connector for rear view camera, or at least which port should I use for video signal. So far I could not find it...
There's a screens below and thanks in advance!
Hi, could anyone tell me if the xtron range units themselves are kinda generic? ie the main units are the same, only car brand fascia and iso harness supplied the differences? ive just aquired very cheap SUZUKI Android 9.0 Car Stereo with DSP (PST99SZK) unit, and looking at it it seems it can be unscrewed and removed from its suzuki specific facia, so my question is are the pinouts on the connections at the back on the different units the same, or are they different, and could i use this unit in my vehicle (2007 audi TT 8J) using this https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004539995254.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.0.0.41681802yBnZsH
also is there custom rom that would be able to be flashed to this device?
Hal9k possible ???
I have a Subaru Forester Limited with the Harmon Kardon audio system that came stock with the car.
I'm looking to upgrade to something that will provide Android Auto and Apple Carplay without needing to plug in the phone. I'm currently leaning towards Idoing but am open to any suggestions you all might have.
I don't have much experience when it comes tinkering with electronics or cars, so I figured one of these all one solutions would make it the easiest for me. This way I'm not going to be splicing any wires and it will all be plug and play (I hope).
I've reached out to Idoing because I'm not exactly sure which model I would even pick. These are the ones that seem to fit my vehicle, but I'm not 100% sure.

So am I looking the wrong direction? Is there a brand that I'm overlooking that would be better for me to get?
Thanks.
Ask seller to provide screenshots of Android System information, including MCU. With that you could know what is being offered and then research the forums.
You probably want a UIS7862 FYT based uint.

Thank you! I'm going to add that to my list of questions for them.
Hey guys,
So I was interested in getting the Teyes CC3 head unit for my 2013 Accord EX-L that comes with dual screen. Teyes doesn’t offer compatibility with the trim of my car since it only supports the single screen model. But I came across the Ossuret head unit which is compatible with my car and was wondering if I could apply their canbus decoder onto the Teyes head unit or any canbus decoder from AliExpress onto the head unit. If you guys have any solution or information that would be a great help.
Similar question. Anyone ?
Why not asking Teyes if they support that specific CAN box?
They're selling an universal unit so that should be a legitimate question.

I contacted them, but they just said custom harness. From my research though the accord uses BNR. No way for me to know till i try so hopefully when my harness comes it'll work.
