Hi guys,
I'm considering buying a Nissan Note (2009/2010) which comes with a Sat-Nav touchscreen.
I was wondering what the most appropriate Android head unit would be to buy that would be compatible with the Nissan Note and whether I can link it to be used by the steering wheel buttons and any existing sensors in the car that would normally be used through the touch screen.
Thanks in advance,

Hi guys,
I recently bought and fit this: Pumpkin Android 4.4 Car DVD Player for VW Vehicles Quad Core 7 Inch Double DIN Supporting Mirro-link/3G/Wifi/GPS/Bluetooth ( I am unable to post the direct link)
I was wondering if you guys knew of a way to rebind the "seek" knob to next and previous track? as I would like a physical button/knob for it instead of using a touchscreen while driving.
Thanks.
Can anyone recommend me a Android unit to replace my RNS510 unit?
I need DAB+ and canbus.
Thanks

Hello,
Did you find a Android Head Unit for your Yeti?
I'm searching one for mine of 2015.
I should keep steer wheel controls and OEM parking sensor too...
Thanks.

Hey Julien, did you find a suitable replacement? if so could you link it? i'm also looking for an Android Head unit idealy with at least 2GB RAM and CANBUS support
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.

Have ordered this unit for my 2006 xtrail.
But not sure what wiring harness I need. Will this fit directly to the connector in the car, or do I need a adapter?
Will steering wheel buttons work with this?
I know this is an old post but I'm looking at the same unit for my 07 X-Trail. How did you go fitting it, did you just need to buy a nissan iso pack? Did the unit fit in the dash ok and are you happy with the unit overall?
Hello...
Not sure if this is the correct forum for this or not so apologies.
I've just bought and installed a chinese Android Auto head unit into my Ford S Max. I think the unit is an XY Auto 3.1 8227L, nothing on the box but this is what is specced in the system info. I've purchased a Connects2 Canbus adapter to use with this so that i can retain steering controls etc.
Everything is all wired up correctly and working but I can't find Connects2 in the Canbus setup list or a Ford S Max under any of the other canbus manufacturers. Does anyone know how I can sort this out?
Other issue is that I no longer get my parking sensor beeps - does this go through the canbus as well?
Not fitted a aftermarket unit in years so no real experience with canbus setup.
Thanks
You need to have a look at the right forum... I asked a mod to move your posting to the right one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-head-units
