So I have an ODB2 dongle, but won't connect with my head unit. Dongle is like a decade old, so have been thinking of replacing it. I see some have it you set the conneciton pairing # to 1234 on the Head Unit. The head units I've had when yoiu click search, then connect to ODB2, no dialog box pops up to enter pairing mode. So does anyone have a dongle that works with these type of head units?

Won't let me connect my ELM327 connect do you know of a fix ? Maybe a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth USB Dongle ?

Has anyone used something like the Delphi Connect or Zubie with their head unit?
I just picked up one of the new Lollipop units from Joying and would rather not connect it with my phone. I am looking at these OBD units vs a USB hotspot. While I would give up bluetooth for OBD, I could run the Delphi or Zubie app on the head unit itself and see the diagnostic codes, etc.
Any experiences or thoughts? Reasons to go with one over the other?
Thanks!
I installed my new head unit today and picked up a Zubie from Best Buy. It is a hotspot that plugs into the OBD port.
It works like a champ too.
My head unit connects via WiFi and I have an always-on connection regardless of my phone being in the car or paired. This saves my phone battery when streaming music and running Waze (which is pretty much the entire time I am in the car).
I haven't even paired my phone to the head unit and am not sure that I will.
I can't run Torque since the OBD port is now in user, but steering wheel controls seem to work fine via CANBUS, so hopefully it won't be a problem.

altough i cannot pair it i think
is there any procedure to correctly do it?

It should work with bluetooth but you have to pair it through the OBD app not the Android settings menu.

HI All,
I just installed this unit. ( sorry, will not allow me to post link)
Android9 13.6" Tesla style Car No DVD Player GPS Navigation For Ford Mondeo Fusion MK5 2017+ radio tape recorder multimedia unit
There is a setting for Speed+ Rotation. which does not seem to work, I have tried several possibilities but can't get it to work. I am of the understanding the the OBD Plug is connected to the ECU under the dash. There are only 2 pins on the plug from the Head unit. Is there an additional setting or perhaps i'm missing something.
having trouble connecting the Bluetooth to car
Keep giving me " no compatible device was found " in the car side and "connection time out" the Android side
Car is Mercedes GL 2013

Not Android Auto, requested move to Android head units forum.
You might find out what unit you have and search for topics from the MCU version of the head unit.

You can´t connect to the car BT-Device.
There is only the possibility to connect to a phone with activated BT on it.

Thank you,
a bit strange ! I wanted to transfer the audio to the car through Bluetooth instead of the AUX cable
Any software modification possible?

No, BT is not possible to modify.
You just can connect to OBD devices (some at least) and phones.
I could not even connect to OBD devices.. tried two OBD devices !
I managed to connect my phone only

You need to delete all connections on the radio and the connection to the unit on your phone.
After that has been done, reboot phone and deactivate BT on your phone.
Reboot the head unit and first of all, bond the OBD device. Take care that the pin code is set correctly on your unit. It´s almost 0000 or 1234.
When you finished bonding your OBD, connect your phone.
It works only in this order.

Thanks for the answer , yet I tried it and did not work too
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..
I have the above head unit fitted and working fine in my car but I have an engine management device that contains a bluetooth low energy module in it. I would like to connect to this module via the provided app however it appears my head unit does not see or connect to BLE devices.
Does anybody know of a USB type device that I can connect to the head unit which will provide the ability to connect to BLE devices?
I'm using standard Dasaita android 10 and 3.69C.
Thanks
I have a similar issue. I have an Axxess signal processor which you make adjustments to it through Bluetooth. The processor connects to my phone but won't even be seen by my head unit (Dasaita max10). These head units only seem to recognize a phone or (select) obd dongles. It's pretty basic. I have been looking for ways to expand this, but so far unsuccessful.
