Hi all.
I've been really excited about the idea of installing a fully Android HU in my Jeep and have been doing quite a bit of research. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with Rydeen radios. In contrast to other Android HUs, this is an American company (although I don't know where production may be), and their products look really solid. Can anyone comment on their radios?
Thanks.
small screen
crappy specs (dual core, low res screen)
i wouldn't waste my time. some chinese android HUs are well supported by their sellers, such as carjoying. They can also be purchased on amazon with prime, so you still have purchase protection. I'd rather do that then buy one of these just b/c it's an american company.

Hmmm... Well, if the quality and support are there, there's nothing wrong with those Chinese brands, I guess. How is the quality of things like buttons and knobs on the Chinese radios? Any brand in particular that's recommended?
Thanks for the feedback.
The Rydeen HU DVA6 is made in China but it is actually a pretty nice unit.
The screen is a WVGA (800 x 480) 6.2" capacitive touchscreen display which is not bad for a car HU. I have one an like the hardware but would be much happier if we could get it on XDADev as a supported device so people could improve the software. The Cortex A9 DualCore 1GHz ARM Processor is slow but with some optimization, it could really do quite a bit. It would be nice if mikereidis would do a android auto build for it.
Hi,
Im looking for a cheap Smart watch with SIM and good GPS. I will probably only use it for running (though if it is good for day-to-day use I'll be even happier).
Right now I have a Gear S2, which I like a lot. Mainly because it is comfortable,its looks good and last for more than a day of work (actually close to two days). So for day-to-day I'm fine.
I was thinking about Finow X5+, but I found no real relivable review on forums. Also KingWear KW18, but there were some complaints about its GPS (and I need a good one).
I was also thinking about waiting for the new Google watches, hoping they will cost no more than 200$, or buyin a used LG urbane 2nd edition.
What do you think?
I'm not familiar with the KW15 or X5 specifically, but I own a couple of watches of that elk and a Gear S3. It's an apples to oranges comparison. The cheap Chinese watches try to do everything but execute it poorly. Running full Android, they're theoretically capable off running any app. But in reality, software crashes, poor battery, minimal water resistance, etc. keep it's potential from being realized. Because they're inexpensive, some folks are willing to tolerate their shortcomings. But if you're looking for a dedicated running watch, you're probably not one of them. Especially since you already have a Gear S2.
There are several GPS equipped watches/fitness trackers that have a good reputation with runners. Your SIM requirement is the limiting factor. At the sub $200 price point, you'll probably achieve a better result with a watch or tracker from Garmin, Polar, TomTom, or Fitbit plus a cheap phone that you take with you on runs if you need SIM capability. If you want a quality all in one device, it's not going to be cheap. The best options currently available are from Samsung and LG, as you know.
I think it is a wise advice. So I took a look at some GPS sport watches and they seems to be both good enough and cheap enough.
I have been looking to buy a new mobile phone since my LG G3 bit the dust a few months ago. The one that piqued my interest is the Axon 7 due to the audio hardware (dual DAC and stereo front speakers) which is the one thing I use my mobile for above everything else. I have been looking at the LG G6 with its quad DAC also but the cost difference is hard to ignore especially if the Axon can give me what I am looking for.
I realise that ZTE have discontinued the manufacturing of the Axon 7 but they are still available from some vendors and rumours have arisen about its successor appearing soon. ZTE is allegedly also releasing Oreo to the 7 in April.
So due to an eventual show of the 8, do you think I would be better waiting through January for the Axon 8 or just pulling the trigger on an Axon 7 right now?

What's your budget? If you're willing to go higher than $400, I'd say get one of the OnePlus phones. Released this year. They have an exceptional dev community (not that ours is bad but theirs is just incredible), and the phones are remarkably solid, especially given the price.
If you're on a budget, then yeah, get the Axon 7 or one of the older OP devices (OP3/3T). You wouldn't have the amazing audio you get with the Axon, but the phones are really, really good.
The Axon 7 is still getting dev support, which is great, but I don't think we'll get to see Android P on our device. Many devs are already losing interest and some people in the community are driving the ones that are left away.
Another option to consider is a used LG V20, which had amazing audio as well.
I am a poweruser so I tend to root my devices almost straightaway usually with magisk so I can use V4A.
I was tempted by the OnePlus 5T and it probably wouldn't be out of my budget, it looks like a really solid phone but with the reports of poor sound quality, lack of DAC and no SD card slot it just didn't fit the bill for me.
I did check out the LG v30 and the specs are an absolute beast on that but alas...so is the price being new on the market lol. The Samsung S8...ERM no...I vouched after they started the bit locking fiasco on the S4 I would never buy another Samsung.
The LG G6 is good for audio but even LG have started regionalizing features now.
These are partly the reason I decided mid to low tear was enough for me as they are easily obtainable from China sim free without ties to contracts and they have a habit of producing good value devices which compete with stupid money flagships.
I am trying to avoid going down the root of second hand devices as I am a big believer in you usually buy someone else's problems especially with manufacturer obsolescence being on the tongues of every techy these days. Its bad enough with the non replaceable batteries in devices!
Bang for buck the Axon 7 is still very desirable...its just the audio I can't ignore and for the price. Bit of a shame that the dev community is losing interest in the axon 7 though, seems a really solid device.
@Gases hope you don't think I am a whining my friend, just me obsessing about my next device lol
So do you think its worth waiting for the Axon 7's successor?

My view from a value consious type is that the A7 is great hardware for the money and importantly, it still runs fast. Getting O may help keep a little development on it but stock is good anyway. I personally wouldn't buy an LG phone, too many successive devices with serious problems like bootloop which never seems to be fixed. LG don't want their phones to last long.
If you're not the sort of person who must have the latest, then for the price the Axon 7 is still a compelling buy.
If you only choose a phone from the list of Daydream certified devices you ensure a well rounded performance and decent sensors etc. It really comes down to how much you want to spend and nothing much can touch the A7 for value versus it's real world performance. Forget benchmarks and all that junk, it's all numbers and running an Axon keeps reliable performance unlike say, a Samsung which will get the stutters sooner or later. I'm keen to see the O update being closer to stock Android on my Axon, but even on B09N it is still smooth and responsive leaving no reason to even consider buying anything else.
All that being posted, I would like to see the next flagship Axon but like all brands, ZTE will try to grow their price tag as public perception improves. Just look at Huawei as an example. Got too expensive and now put themselves beyond my price level. Wouldn't consider Samsung, HTC and all the others keeping prices double what they should be.

When you say that you use your phone for music, what do you really mean? Hi-res, or just FLACs? With V4A or stock?
The AK4490EN is capable of like 768 kHz/32 bit, but ZTE limited to a hideous 96 kHz/16 bit...
Still it sounds much, MUCH better than a standard Snapdragon DAC. Even on custom ROMs. And even more so on custom ROMs with V4A, if you're using MP3s.
I think you have to completely avoid midrange devices. The best choice is to get a high-end CPU even if it's one generation old. The SD6xx series are a world apart in terms of performance.
Also, why do you say that the dev community is losing interest? We lost 1 or 2 devs this year. It was always rather weak, but we're a cozy community and seemingly managed to push enough to get ZTE to get a working Camera2 API and some other stuff (time will tell).

Totally agree on the LG thing, the G3 was a solid item on the outside but its internals were a different story...like I said manufactured obsolescence! Baking the motherboard on mine was its final death cry lol

Sorry I should have made myself clear when I said mid to low tear phone, I was talking about price not internal specs. Totally agree the SD 820/821 chips might not be the latest and greatest but they are far from obsolete and still perform great... would be nice to have say an 835 but I am not in it for the numbers anyway.
As for my audio format, its a bit of a mix...minimum 320 Kbps to lossless, it really depends on where I got the files from. The max impedance on my best cans are 40 ohms so no studio level stuff.
As for the dev community losing interest...no offence intended, was only expressing my feelings on what I was told by Gases. Cosy is a good thing, its a powerful tool, means there is a passion for the product and if ZTE are listening...even better.
BTW happy new year!

You'll be OK with the Axon 7's DAC -its soundstage is clearly better and it has a lower noise level. The community is nowhere near dying out since most devs maintain only a few devices. And the SD820 still works good.
I don't believe the Axon 9 (I think they'll skip 8, like 2019) will be released before at least May or June. They said absolutely nothing aside from 'there will be a successor to the axon 7'.
Happy new year
I would say yes, I bought mine in Nov last year and it was delivered in Dec. I am loving it every minute with zero issues that I am unhappy with. I bought it to replace a buggy Zenfone 3 (midrange) and I am totally pleased with it.
Cost is a major factor as I had already spent a load of money on the ZF3; it cost the same as a current midrange device (Xiaomi A1) and yet performance is twice of current midrange devices (double benchmark and QHD screen). Yes, it is nearly a 2 years old flagship, but the question is do I need that much firepower from a current flagship? My answer is not really, yours maybe different.
I do not root my phones, had a really bad experience when I hard bricked a device due to faulty instructions and then I got laugh at by the "community". So I only update my devices officially.
I also do not update my devices to the "last" update as I had bad experiences where a device became crap with the final update (likely due to it not able to handle the load?). So I update them once out of the box, and that it. My Axon 7 was updated from B11 to B09 when I got it and it is likely to stay on B09 until the day it dies, unless the feedback on future updates are very positive here. Again, you may use yours differently.
If you disregard all the numbers and technicalities and just want a good sounding phone to play your MP3 library off, you can't go wrong with the Axon 7.
I mostly use bluetooth but do plug in still.
I did this afternoon in the car. Feeding music to the car hifi by wire sounds awesome, for sure it's better than bluetooth and louder too. I just use MP3 and can still clearly hear a difference.
You don't need to be swallowing up 50Mb a song with hi res FLAC files to justify owning the phone.
I've got my Axon7 last month to replace dying Meizu MX4Pro. Few thoughts on the buy.
A7 is fantastic mid-range phone, I've managed to get it quite cheap in almost new condition (~€230).
Performance wise it is brilliant, no hiccups or anything (bear in mind I was coming from Android 5.0 2014 phone )
Now, the sound. I have mixed feelings on this. I'll tell you why.
The speakers are great, but when I say sound quality I mean the headphone out. I didn't have much time to compare it to MX4Pro and my DAP (Cayin N3 - same DAC chip as A7) but I still feel that A7 is lacking a bit. Defo less power than my old phone (or the DAP), I need to crank up the volume to get the detail and dynamics level I want. I'll be trying it with my old C&C amp to see if it will improve.
Don't get me wrong, sound quality is very good, I think it is just the power. But again, my only reference is DAP which has lot more power and one of the most musical phones that was manufactured to date (MX4 Pro has ESS9018 DAC and OPA1612 as an amp).
To sum up - lovely phone with good sound, sound is definitely better than 99% phones out there. If you can get it cheap(-ish) and don't mind 2 year old hardware go for it.
Well it is done...Axon 7 EU version is on it's way! Oooo new shiny's lol and the wait begins
And I put a sneaky order in for the BOBOVR Z5 daydream headset just to test the water with VR and daydream.

What version of the A7 did you get? Is it on Nougat OS? If it's A2017G on Marshmallow it should improve on stock Nougat.

Got mine yesterday in the post from gearbest as a reluctant replacement for my Nexus 6 .
Reluctant, as I wanted to 'upgrade' so had to be amoled, stereo speakers, qhd etc to at least match the beast of a Nexus 6.
Just been using today and smaller screen size takes a bit of getting used to, but sound via speakers is on par with Nexus 6 I'd say not yet tried plug in headphones. Screen is much better and the build quality too.
Very pleased so far.
This weekend may see me attempt boot loader unlock, TWRP, Magisk and Lineage install; although I must say the ZTE implementation isn't half bad, and thats on Marshmellow.
May I ask where you found it for sale? Seems most places out of stock now, and felt quite lucky to snap one up.

Fasttech had it listed...missed all the holiday discounts though and I think the fact that every other company have sold out has driven the price up on FT slightly but I am not really bothered...I am now hoping it slips past the folks at customs discreetly lol.
I need this to get here asap as my 5 yr old S4 is on its last legs...I think it must have caught something off my deceased LG G3 haha!

I've had mine 2 weeks, and absolutely love it. It replaced a Sony Xperia Z4 (with the 810 which allowed the phone to double as a hot plate, foot warmer or small space heater.) The sound is everything I expected from the Sony and never got. The screen is beautiful. Battery life is amazing. The Z4 had a max of 3 hours life, and this Axon 7 has seen me through 10 hour days listening to bluetooth most of the day, with 35% batttery left. I found mine on Amazon for $317, the box was scuffed up, but everything inside was pristine and untouched. I'm rooted with WRP, Substratum and Xposed. I have not felt the need to leave stock 7.1.1 as of yet.
Stock Nougat is quite good. I find that here a lot of people are way too trigger happy on the flash custom ROM scene. I only do it if the phone needs it. Custom ROMs usually have issues.
ZTE will release an official and reasonably light Oreo for it this year too.
I think after that, good custom ROMs will follow as they released O sources to a well known dev. I personally wouldn't be bothered with any current Nougat customs seeing as O is coming.
I will probably upgrade and run the axon 7 stock for a few months same as I did with my G3.
ZTE have certainly extended the axon 7's presence in the market though bringing Oreo to it, all the major brands would have EOL'ed support to a device by now especially with it starting on Marshmallow.
Has anyone had the need to swap the battery out yet?
I know there are a couple of good teardown vids on YT and it doesn't look too bad.

With my previous (pre MX4Pro) Android phones I was first to flash custom ROMs. But with A7 I'm happy so far with stock Nougat. Miss the root for few things, but I have too much stuff on the phone and too little time to bother with unlocking bootloader and rooting it as I understand I will loose all present data.
Now, when the Oreo comes, that might change
Hi
On Amazon UK there are several head units that look identical and have identical specs PX6, 4GB ram, 64GB storage etc, they are branded 'Pumpkin' and 'Vanku'. I am thinking that the internals are identical, I have heard of Pumpkin, but the Vanku is currently £50 less with the voucher. Is there a difference? Does anyone have experience of Vanku?
Thanks
I just bought one. Finished installing it yesterday. The reason I bought the Vanku over the pumpkin is the Vanku uses an mtce mcu whereas the pumpkin uses something different. I love this headunit so far. I'm coming from an atoto and this thing has blown me away. The boot time is phenomenal from both cold and warm boot. I bought the 4/64 model. The only complaint I have is the bezel size is about 2mm bigger length and height. I had to cut my metra adapter panel to get it to fit. Another big shock is that so far the Bluetooth sound quality is great from what people have told me. I am gonna post more of my thoughts on this forum after using it a day or two. But right now this is hands down the best H.U. I have ever owned.

Any thoughts as to update availability for this, I note the Pumpkin has a reasonable website/forum, but for Vanku its a bit scant, and one single, unanswered post in their forum!
Also, what advantages does the mtce mcu give over the alternatives?
Thanks

No I don't know about updates for this and I also can't speak to the long term reliability. The reason I wanted an mtce is there is more 'aftermarket' support on xda forums. If it fails on me I seem to change out every couple of years anyway because these evolve so quickly anyway.

That's a reasonable point - I currently have an Ownice C200, that has served me well for over 5 years (!), and I have not had to seek out any updates for it, however it feels really slow these days, I think the PX6 would be a rocket ship by comparison! Mine is stuck on Android 4.4 so some Apps wont run on it these days. A 2-year upgrade cycle would make more sense esp given how cheap these things are.
Well the speed of this one will literally "blow you away". I was in awe even with a cold boot. To me this is the HU I have always wanted. I know I sound like a fan boy but I am super impressed so far. I played with in on the bench for a couple of days and finished installing it yesterday so I can't give a long term review but I am very happy. After researching quite a bit my first plan was to install a better heat sink. I pulled the top off and found it had a pretty robust heat sink from the factory so I just put it back together.
Like I said...it may crap out in 2 weeks but for now I am very impressed. I added the agama launcher and the navradio+ interface for the radio portion and it's almost exactly where I want it.
Oh...forgot to add....per the amazon answers from the seller...the pumpkin does NOT support any TPMS. That's another reason I went with the Vanku.
Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk
I'm looking as well and looks identical. Even seller is the same. Vanku £229.99 with voucher, pumpkin £269.99
I think i'll wait a bit cos looks like pumpkin was £190 till September
I ordered this vanku and backup camera combo for $109
https://www.amazon.com/Vanku-Androi...X4M/ref=sr_1_4?dchild=1&keywords=vanku&sr=8-4
I installed it and so far it's been great. I've used the headunit reloaded emulated app to connect and it's working. I've also used the mirrorlink app easyconnect and it's worked fine also. The only problem I've experienced so far is that the AM radio is very weak.
Highly recommended! BTW, it's a FF-5000, I had determined that it's an AA0501B, which doesn't exist anywhere on the net, however their is a pumpkin identified is AA0502A (https://forum.autopumpkin.com/viewtopic.php?t=15869). They appear to be identical.

Hi,
How is the hiss? My Pumpklin version ( if I can say that) has a horrible hiss when unmuted regardless of the volume (same intensity fortunately so it is masked at higher volume). I've beefed up the ground wire however it is still there.
Thanks!
