A few questions for someone considering an Android HU

I am considering buying an Android HU......... Mostly the Pumpkin 7" RQ0278 or the 27-AQTU72.
Among other apps, I plan on installing Tasker and Mighty Text and have some questions I hope can be answered here.
First of all.... Can these units install these apps from the Play store and if so, I plan on having Tasker read out loud my texts as I receive them: if I am listening to music from the radio app will the music stop so that Tasker can read the message.... Also along the same line...... Can I be using the radio app while navigating and hear directions over the music?
2: will I regret not going with 6.0 or will a 5.1 be sufficient....... What's the biggest difference between the two?
3:. Does saying "OK Google" work just like my phone or tablet does?
4:. I currently have an aftermarket Pioneer in my 2006 Dodge Ram installed with a PAC steering wheel interface module...... Will I still use this module and program it the same way or can I do away with it all together?

1a -->yes.google play works perfectly.
1b --> I don't know how is managed the radio and Tasker in background. What works perfectly is using navigation and radio on background and you can decide if gps instructions are mixed with background (and mixing level) or background muted.
2 --> similar performance IMHO
3--> yes..working on any screen
4 --> if you have pac only for retain steering wheel buttons and they are resistive and Not can-bus controlled you can remove pac on your installation
If pac controls other things (reverse camera signal) you will need pac as well
I have a mazda cx5 and I had to keep pac for reverse signal aa it is coded by can bus...but my steering wheel buttons worked without pac (they work with pac too)

Honda Accord 2017 Coupe and Samsung S8

So I can pair the phone, see contact etc - play music. BUT cannot use Voice Prompts - when I click the steering wheel for voice, says Phone Not Compatible
It used to work with my Sonata 2015, any ideas?
I have Bixby remapped though, unsure if related

Which accord model? do you have nav with your accord? i went thru this with my accord years ago until i found out my trim level needs nav for all voice commands to work. with lower levels you only get basic ones. however ive never had it say not compatible with any of my phones, from old rooted devices to current s8. you might need to re-pair the device and make sure you approve all prompts on phone and accord screen.

Its a touring 2017, and it has Nav - I do allow all prompts
And someone else reported it too

That's super weird. Sorry I'm out of ideas other than checking in on Honda Accord forums too. If it's a problem with accords I'm guessing someone might have reported it there too and possibly found a solution. I'm inclined to think there are a number of Accord owners with an s8 and someone over there might've noticed. Calling Honda corporate directly might be an option as well to ask them if they've seen the issue. Good luck, i understand how that's a frustrating issue.

It works fine with USB and AA but not with BT only. Phone was OK with my Sonata 2015

I have CR-V 2014 and S8+, when adding contacts to a quick call, you need to create a voice call in the car multimediasystem, because she is talking to the car when you press the button on the steeringwheel, not to the phone. Try it.

I was using this whole thing incorrectly. I was long pressing the TALK on the wheel, ( sonata way ) and I had to click click to use it. The long press is OK when phone is connected via USB and via Google Assistant and same with sirI

Joying PX5 Android 8 4Gb Ram 32Gb - google voice services not working

I just installed a joying JY-UO138P4 (https://www.joyingauto.com/joying-l...ouble-din-car-audio-system-with-4gb-32gb.html ) in a 2006 Pontiac Grand Prix.
Most things work - I am still working out the steering wheel control wiring with Metra Axxess and Joying - I think this is an issue with Metra identifying the car correctly, I had a similar problem with an older metra unit on a Sony receiver.
One thing that doesn't work is accessing google voice services when I click on the microphone, I get a message 'Cannot reach google at the moment'. I am connected via wifi and can open the Chrome browser and get to google. All other internet access I tested works fine as well.
Does anyone have any suggestions on this?
p.s. I'll probably have other questions on improving the UI - would like a better blue tooth phone client, and something better with the radio.

Search the forum. This has been mentioned several times. Google voice currently doesn't work. Joying is working on it.
A lot of us have questions and remarks on the UI, on a lot of aspects, and on the functionality. Most/some of us are already pushing Joying 2 years for improvements. Some improvements and bug fixes came, others not.
Please help pushing by directly mailing to Joying ([email protected]) about your comments and questions, but don't think you're the first.
You don't mention your issues with the Radio, but if it is about layout: see here.
Those radio mods are made for the Sofia units, but work just as well on your type of PX5. I'm using one of them (and the PX5 models ending on P2 or P4 can use the exact same software)

Thanks for responding, I did find a rom on their site (have the link on my home machine) , not sure it is for these devices, just says for 2gb/4gb 16gb/32gb Octacore, but from the looks of it, it is an AOSP build.
After trying an older 'personal assistant' app AVX Extreme, I found out the google speech to text module is missing. - this thread (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-building/Gu8c8JLMo6w) shows that it is not part of AOSP, so if we can figure out how to get the speech to text module installed, I think it will work.
As for the Radio, it is a layout thing, it is not a bad layout, but I feel it could be better somehow. I'd like to find a launcher that supports the OBD-II input for speed/etc, a nice clock, radio/volume control, and navigation
I see you also have a thread on the 8.0 build so I will follow up on there.

You have a FYT hardware model (models ending on P2 or P4). The firmware you see there is for the QD models which are completely different and completely incompatible with regard to the underlying hardware, drivers, etc.

Hello
i have received the P2 unit and Google voice not working
Some news from Joying about this feature?

Dit you managed to get the steering wheel control wiring with Metra Axxess to work on your Joying? I also need a canbus decoder for the joying i'm planning to buy. Can you recommend the Metra Axxess, and is it difficult to connect the wiring?

Yes- I got it to work, though don't ask how I had multiple back and forths with Metra on it- for some reason the Axxess could not properly detect my car, metro told me the instructions printed and on the pdf could be wrong and I should try ""VOL UP, SEEK UP, BAND, MUTE, VOL UP"" - but that didn't work. At one point I got frustrated working on the car, and reset the Axxess for the 20th+ time, and didn't notice the steering wheel was turned, so i hit the buttons 'upside down' - I am not sure the combination, but once that happened everything is working good.
In my car, two of the buttons overlap - so I have 6 buttons I can assign instead of 8, but the important one (Seek/Volume/Mute) are mapped so I am happy.
I am not using CANBUS on my car, so I can't speak to that, though I am trying to find out if there is any information anywhere on connecting to the build in HUD in my car.

bmw f30 android 7.1.x head units

Hi,
I am trying to buy an android head unit from aliexpress for my bmw f30 2013. Very few sellers answer questions and not to the point.
e.g.
1) does it supports after market front camera through RCA input and how easy is to select it? (e.g. does it appear automatically right after reverse gear)
2) does it support can bus messages or do I need a can bus converter. I have already tried 2 multimedia interfaces (IW06B-N23 and QHI-BM12) but they dont trigger the camera. So how to be sure that the same will not happen with the android head unit
3) which MCU is used in order to see if I will be able to find updated firmware on xda forum
4) will I hear oem radio during google maps navigation (hearing also google maps directions)
5) will it connect automatically to my iphone hotspot for internet
6) will it work for iphone 11.2 mirroring
7) will it show perfectly the oem screen
8) would I be able to use steering wheel controls for bluetooth and which bluetooth will I be able to use? the OEM one or the Android one?
9) would I be able to use idrive in google maps
All of the above I believe are very basic information that you cannot get from sellers. I dont understand how they sell or I am missing something here.
Is there anyone here with similar problems so we can help each other?
Regards,
Mike

With a name like Mike, you're maybe English or American? I really suggest buying locally. You'll pay £/$30 more but you'll get a warranty and protection from your local trading laws. Buying from China is a game of Russian roulette. I bought an Erisin from China before and it was absolutely fine. Lucky that, because one I bought from England was not fine, and I had to return it. Had it been the other way round, I'd have been in a world of trouble and £100+ down the ****ter.

On mine, there's a setting for it to switch back to the front camera after the rear camera has been operating.

It will come with a canbus decoder unit. Any unit worth it's salt will work correctly with your PDC system. Mine does.
3) which MCU is used in order to see if I will be able to find updated firmware on xda forum

MCU is not important. It's the brand that puts out firmware updates. Xtrons, Joying and Eonon have fairly solid reputations for their updates. Xtrons have put out 5 so far for my unit. Erisin have a fairly flakey reputation. The rest are going to be a complete gamble and more likely you'll lose.

OEM radio? You're removing the OEM radio and replacing it with this. If you mean will you hear the radio and maps, yes, the maps software dips the volume in a very polite way

Firstly, sack off the iPhone, it's crap and there's so many things you can do with Android that work with this unit (mine triggers the hotspot on and off when i get in and out of the car). In answer to your question, yes, you can connect it to your hotspot.

You're mixing two entirely different software packages up here.
To conclude, if your car has iDrive. I wouldn't go anywhere near one of these systems, it'll be a ****ing minefield making it work. If yours is non iDrive, like mine, then it'll fit perfectly with no issues

Thank you for the supplied information. I am from Greece/EU and locally there are no such products.
Chinese solutions for BMW F30 are mainly changing only the screen (which is detachable) and the new one includes all the features inside the screen, so the main OEM function remain in-place.
I would take a look at xtrons as I have seen various posts here and they have a decent website hoping to receive updates but I dont know yet if they have an EU warehouse because import taxes is my country are very high. My concern stays for idrive and canbus integration mainly because I have already tested 2 other types of interface and non of them worked.
Lets see if xtrons will reply on aliexpress with more to the point questions!

Your car has iDrive? Be very careful. Those systems are so much more complicated. The reason the non-iDrive works is because it's actually still a simple system. It's just a whole bunch of relays triggered by other relays and a few more relays and then somewhere there's a computer that does it all. iDrive has it's own dedicated computer which does so much more and offers so much more functionality, and that's where you might find problems. Getting those two systems integrated could be an absolute minefield.

Not sure if you are still around or found more info but the above posts are incorrect. The unit you are buying is more than likely the 10.25 screen upgrade with Android built in. It will work in tandem with idrive....everything works and it is easy install and upgrade.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/10-...00a8-4760-8b00-b2efeaa2fb7e&priceBeautifyAB=0

So a stupid question, it seems there are several Chinese companies that sell these 10.25" Android panels for the F30 BMW. Though the interface looks exactly the same despite who made the tablet, is there really a difference in the ROM image between makes? The one I have is from COG Android (atleast that is what the Bluetooth ID says). I have had in other cars Joying and ITOPWay, are they really something different ( I almost suspect they are the same company)?

Can i pass though a key to android auto.

Hi,
Sometimes I get a call and I need to press "9" to open a gate.
I can't seem to do it with android auto.......if i press 9 on the phone nothing happen and on my dash no digits appear when i answer a call.
so far the only solution if to completely disconnect the unit and ask the person to ring me up again...surely there is a better way?lol
I have 1 of those "smart mirrors" with android auto

What is unit? Genuine Android Auto or Chinese origin head unit?

Chinese....

it's called "
CP06 11.26 Inch​

Not (Android Auto) requested moderator move to (Android head-units) forum.

Still struggling with this, will changing the phone dialler help?

Just don´t use Android Auto and use the built-in BT application. Then you should get the num pad.
I really don´t understand why a guy uses Android Auto in an Android car unit.
...and you can´t change the dialer app.
But... those mirror thingies are just crap.

Because just about every new car make, except Tesla, including all the high end luxury makes have AA and Carplay and there's a very good reason for that... safety and simplicity, with unified app design and complete control with voice recognition from the steering wheel mic button... unlike just about every Android Head unit where that's a complete mess and faff to get working properly, as you say it's almost impossible to change the dialer app. Plus all the heavy processing is handed off to your phone... upgrade your phone and your HU is effectively upgraded too. MY HU is a PX5 from 2018, it's more use today than when I first bought it. And wireless 5GHz connectivity now too with a Motorola MA1 dongle. Get in, autoconnection to the phone in your pocket, press mic button, say "Navigate here...Play X...Call x...tell me about such and such a place...." etc. etc. It's such a breeze that the original buggy software could never deliver.
I've been using Headunit Reloaded for over 4 years now... that's not crap at all. And unlike the branded Head units that are much more expensive anyway, you still have the use from time to time of built in apps. I have Spotify, Sygic Premium and Poweramp etc. all up to date on the HU too, if I forget my phone for a short trip.

Well... Sorry to say, but the OEM car makers are not using Android Auto and car play for safety and simplicity... You are completely wrong.
They use it, because they want to prevent their internal system and keep Android Auto and Car Play separated.
A PX5 is able to do all the stuff you need in a car. But I don´t want to discuss with you about OEM Multimedia device development. I know what I am talking about, because I am working in a company developing OEM software for these head units.
Blame Android Auto to not provide a num pad. That is nothing to be discussed here.

Well sorry to say, you are completely wrong... they use it because it's benefits have become universally recognized. I really don't care what you do, though I can respect it, but you are speaking for yourself. OEMs are moving towards Android Automotive built in because they want to gouge us with OTA paid for updates and take back control of ICE. The benefits of AA and Carplay also include taking it all with you and stepping into another car with your music and maps etc. I only know that a) the PX5 HU I have cannot do those things even with MTCDTools/MTCDDialer and I know what I'm doing with it. and b) AA for me has been truly transformative.
It appears the OP uses a number pad for some kind of remote garage door - I can't comment on that. But I can switch between AA and the HU with the touch of a button, so anything that worked before still works now. Yes there is nothing further to discuass because the OP didn't ask for your opinion of AA.

Android Auto is just a crutch to provide a few features like Google maps as an example so the OEM don't have to develop, maintain, host and offer this.
In the end, it is just a tool meant for OEM head units, but not for Android car units. In his case, it's even dumber, since he only has one Android, which is shown in the mirror.
So don't tell me what's going on in the OEM world.
That takes me out of this topic. I don´t want to discuss this further. He will not be able to do that with his unit. That´s it.

I don't really care what you say when you post such nonsense. Your passive aggressive attempt to control a debate fails totally. It doesn't work for you fine - it works for me and millions of others. If you are truly working for OEMs I respectfully say God help us.
