Firstly hello i am new to the forum
i have been searching the web about this ever since i purchased my android head unit (about a week ago) as i have issues i cant seem to get my head around.
The unit is branded up as XONRICH (CHINESE UNIT) its running oreo 8.1
i previously had the same unit in my other car with no issues how ever was running 7.1 android - the settings seem alot more accessible on the 7.1
so here are my issues if anyone could shed some light on this
1- The time when i set to automatic it is one hour fast even when set to time zone london
2 - the canbus keep forgetting the head unit and not working to turn on and off with key ,reverse cam loss and steering controls - all works again after reset - i here you can set canbus to 0 or faint to amend ?
3 i cant access factory settings to play with any of the above as it is not even listed in the menu ..
4. i can not seem to change the boot logo to a personalized upload
Hello, I have all those problem too with android 8.1 and also :
5 - cannot find accessibility settings to approved some apps like maps navigation or any app required to accept service (error service google play)
6 - brightness app is always automatic at boot (even if I untick auto)
I'm starting to think it's a bad deal

me too ... i am sorry to hear you are having the same issues ... i do feel if i could access the factory settings i could probably fix most issues
is your unit also xonrich?
i was wondering if it is possible to flash 7.1 software on to the unit as it is so so much better to use
the manual they send does not match the 8.1 software it is for 7.1 as ive had both units maybe if we could lay our hands on an 8.1 based manual this would help ?
Yes it's bad story, my unit has no name :laugh: I posted here this morning :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...units/8227l-android-unit-8-1-chinese-t3905535
It's incredible to not find any combination to reboot into recovery, I tried all I think
The only acces is MCU Update but without any update ... it's difficult
I have instructions.pdf in system, but there is nothing very important
Mine loses qualizer settings if o turn of car or if i change volume
I am sorry to hear your issues . Maybe this brand unit is not ready for Android 8.1. I am owning ATOTO A6 Pro. It works great even though it is Android 6.0.
Mine is same through seicane website
I found a you tube video

I also own an Xonrich unit and the only problem I have is that when the radio tuner is working, the audios of other applications, for example radar announcers, do not sound, but if I turn off the tuner or put another audio source, including internet radio, TuneIn for example, these radar announcements are perfectly heard. The only thing they don't hear is with the radio tuner working.
I could not find the appropriate configuration to achieve it.

Help and additional problems

Hi.
I also have some issues with the time on the unit being one hour fast, but after it's been on for a minute or two and GPS is fixed the time changes to the correct time.
Where did you buy your canbus for the unit? I have a Volvo V70 '04 which I want the steering wheel buttons to work with.
I'm also having trouble with the Bluetooth option missing in the settings list. Its only possible to pair the unit with Bluetooth trough the phone pair function on the unit. I really want to pair my OBD2 adapter to my unit but am unable to do so when there is no Bluetooth menu.
Is there a possible way to add this function to the unit trough a software upgrade or such?
Hello guy`s
i have some issues with a 10.25" Android Navigation display i bought.
i also did some chat with the sellers but it seems their english is not very good...
From what i saw the system is the same PX6 System 2GB ram /32GB flash as sold for all other E Series BMW cars, only the additional mount is different.
Unfortunately i can`t attach pictures or extranal links yet, so i`m writing the Android spec here.
MCUVer: 023042bGS-CIC-HW7-190118[B1280_170325]
FrameworkVer: 8.1.0 OPM5.171019.019 eng.zxw.20181228.162012
AndroidVer: 8.1.0
AppVer: 2019030801_1280x480_970
Ram: 2G
1st "issue".
when booting the device it does display the Lockscreen, not directly the BMW GUI, i have to swipe to unlock the screen.
any way to change this to go directly into the GUI?
I haven`t found an option yet.
2nd. issue.
Bluetooth does not work like it`s meant to from an Android Device.
there is only a bluetooth menu at the BMW GUI, where i can search for Bluetooth devices and connect them.
the problem is now, it only does find other mobile phones, it does not find the original CIC, not a BT headset, also not a BT mouse or BT keyboard.
when i go to to normal android settings "connected devices" i don`t have an bluetooth option here.
the BMW configuration has set "WenqiangBC6" BT Module enabled.
I want to use an additional Tsumbay Ai01 controller, but i also can not connect this device.
is it possible to reenable the original Bluetooth option there, i think it only has been disabled ?
3rd issue.
It has been delivered with an additional "pseudo" Idrive controller that is directly connected to the Android screen.
the problem is, that the controller will always only work for about 30-60 seconds, then it will not respond anymore, i have to reconnect the controller to get it work for again 30-60 seconds.
does someone also has this controller and had such trouble , or a fix for this ?
4th "issue".
I`m using google maps as i lost the Igo Software because a "factory reset" has been made.
when doing navigation, half of the screen is consumed by grey (bottom) or green (top) surfaces including the Status bar.
is there any chance to change the visuals of google maps to look like Android Auto or at least to make the bars smaller oder disable automatically disable the status bar ?
i have found no option for this, also not for scaling, probably it`s also disabled ?
5th "issue".
the harness does have alot of "CAN" connectors, "CAN A" "CAN B" "CAN C" "CAN 1" "CAN 2".
there did came no description whith the device, does someone have a description of the harness ?
i already updated the cartype.xml and factory.xml to get ID6 back, but that does not help for the other issues.
i hope someone can help me at least with some of the issues
sincerely Chri
Hello
I was able to "solve" the 3rd issue, when the Android navigation is set between Car and original CIC-HU, the original CIC controller does work fine so the pseudo controller isn`t needed anymore
The only thing is that i found a new issue,
7th issue,
the Aux Autoswitch option does go to the wrong menu point.
so when selecting "Music" it does not switch to AUX.
I made a video to show the Start to unlock issue and the Auto AUX issue, maybe this will help
https ://youtu.be/ETWdRfly6PY
you need to remove the space after https

Hey Chris, I'm also Dutch and I'm seeing a lot of the same issues..
Doe you know the factory settings code to get in the factory menu?
Thanks!
Hi to all
I have the same unit i get it from AliExpress navifly
I had the same exact issues like chris i did a factory reset and eventually i lost everything i did something wrong and now i have the unit is infinite loading on android and it’s not turning on. I am wondering if someone can help me with this and by the way the factory reset code is 1314
Has anyone solved the bluetooth problem? I just want to load normal android on it to be honest. Their audio bluetooth and phone stuff is taking control somehow. I don't even care for it.
same problem with bootooth here. Not able to connect bluetooth device from other apps (OBD or Flitsmeister)

meanwhile it`s a known common thing that Bluetooth is locked on this devices so only smartphones for playing music and do handsfree calling is possible, it is not possible to add other bluetooth devices like OBD dongles, mouse, keyboard ect.

Hello! I've got Winca W2-RL1051 Android 9 Head Unit. Unfortunately I can use bluetooth connection with my iPhone only. OBDII adapters (I've tried four models) don't create a pair with it. Head unit finds it, requirea password, writes "Connect OK", but it doesn't work in Torque or Hobdrive. I hope the problem is in soft.
I attach HWGEtInfo.zip from my head unit. Can anyone tell me what to do?
Thanks in advance!

Based on the HWGetInfo you do have a FYT compatible unit.
Does the name of your OBD device start with OBD or Gooddriver? If yes, it should be able to pair. If your OBD device has a different name you can forget it (although you might still try #14 of my Q&A thread)
Secondly: These units are quite stupid. What is the pincode you need to pair your OBD? If it is different from the standard pin code (1234 I think) of your unit, then change the pin code of the unit to the OBD pin code.
First unpair your iphone (same for android phones btw) and completely forget it.
Then (try to) pair your OBD device.
Then pair your phone again.

Thank you. The name of my device is 'OBDII". I tried, but it doesn't work. Maybe it's because of I don't know how to completely forget my iphone after unpairing. There ain't such option in Settings menu, Should I root my head unit?

No. rooting your unit doesn't make a difference at all.
Does your phone see it and can connect to it when you plug the OBD device in your car?

Yes, OBD device works ok with android phone and tablet. No problems at all.
Head unit can connect with phones only. It doesn't see another bluetooth devices (e.g. remote controller).
Settings -> Car settings -> Extra settings (password 123456) -> Config info ->
If the checkmark is in the BC6 checkbox, then you need to deactivate it and select BC8.
If BC8 is selected, then deactivate BC8 and change it to BC6, reboot the device,

There's no such options in the settings of my head unit, alas.
Literally have the same problem with you bro.
My headunit is 8227L china crap
Literally having same issue and also 2 of my friend's with our new head unit.
My headunit is a RK3399 PX6 from Sygav.
Obd2 shows in bluetooth menu but won't connect ever after using code 0000 and 1234.
Have the same issue. Gave up, return all OBDII bt devices. I saw a video by Charlston. He said Bluetooth obdII has to be in top level. So if you have multiple devices, remove and forget them and put the OBDII first (first position). If you get it working than put your smart phone in. Will try to add his link.
Anyone have problems with the Rear Defroster/rear defogger not working? It worked with my original unit. Guessing the wirings incorrect on the new Allwinner T3 I bought. XRC-403 2019 04 12. Guessing that's the number on the back of the unit. I have a Single Zone.
Can you help me connect Bluetooth obd2 adapter with Nakamichi android car stereo. The Bluetooth settings in the unit does not have the option to change the password which is 0000.All my obd adapters use 1234.Please help.
Also the joying unit in my other car connects with adapters that only have obd2 as their internal name..
Hey guys,
I recently bought a Headunit for my Opel/Vauxhall/GM Vectra C by the brand Autotop on AliExpress.
More information here : https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33064243426.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.4d374c4djb2lMm
It is a RK3368 unit with 4gb RAM and 64gb ROM and Carplay function. I mainly bought this unit because I expected two main features from it.
Firstly I wanted to be able to have plug and play Android Auto and the unit came with a dedicated usb cable that had the label carplay on it which only fit in one slot on the back of the radio. Sadly when I plugged my phone in nothing happened so I assume that the unit is in fact not Android Auto ready even though the description says so. Am I doing something wrong/ Do I have to set up Android Auto in some way, first?
I also want to install a backup camera and I saw in some other youtube videos that the PX5 Android 9 and Android 10 devices have something called "Extra Settings" where different parameters of the backup camera can be adjusted. One of the things that can be adjusted is the calculation of the reverse trajectory of the car which is a feature that I would really like to have.
Unfortunately my headunit only has "General Settings" "Factory Settings" and "Steering Wheel" settings. And none of these settings contain any adjustments for the backup camera.
Is there a way to "unlock" these extra settings or are they just not present in my Android Build ?
Ive attached my Build Number for further information down below
Thanks in advance for your help!

i found out that a cable was not connected to the steering wheel.
I had to open the plastic-frame above the steering wheel and there was a connector.
Now they work but i still can not programm each button to another function. Still grey screen.

Can you change the language of the car? After installing the language changed to english from the tachometre. In the car app there is no setting to change language.
I dont mean the android language,
Hi all
I have been searching CANBUS Development as to implement the following, i am not very good at MCU and HEX cods
my point is to make a use of the head unit since it can do great with specific canbus decoder
1- integration and possible control of some parts in car via OBD2
2- develop an app that can run via specific protocol through the Head units as to be able to control the the Head units (VOL , RADIO , APPS etc, through BT or WIFI adb
3- integration of ARDUINO since it can serve as canbus decoder with many options this will give many tricks and makes many options to control car such as Lights , and door unlock and so many in hand
3- some head units such as WINCA ford series has AC control Panel (hard keys) They send commands to the canbus which are decoded to CAN L /H codes , I have SIMPLE SOFT protocol pdf Docs that has these codes , which i personally tested and could send commands to head unit by BT UART through the UART of the head unit , i also have window SIMPLE SOFT program that runs as emulator to send and sniff commands from /to head unit
i need those who are interested tell me what is possible to be implemented and i will keep posting resources links here
I have not found any discusstion about canbus development
What does this have to do, in any way, with Android Auto?

You haven't looked enough, there are at least two threads describing development and posting here is not at all android-auto as @mike.s correctly states.
Requested moderator move, or better yet delete this useless post.
hi gentelmen , comon you could see i am new to xda , actually i have been long but this is my first thread , i hope you understand and guide me to move it to android head unit section

Android Auto could have stats such as fuel economy, auto gas station selection based on estimated til empty, speed traveling. Anything you can pull off the CAN bus would be data you could turn into a feature

You're obviously not familiar with the long existing and popular Torque Pro app. It does a lot with OBDII data. It has nothing to do with Android Auto, because AA doesn't support that type of app.
I would like to know if any of you have been able to get/exctract/reset/program functions from canbus boxes ?
If someone has knowledge on "how to" please PM me , thanks.
