Not sure if this is the correct place to post...
Fitted a Xtrons Android Headunit last night. Very pleased with it so far. Still making tweaks to the sound do get a little more power and bass. Google maps works a treat on it.
However... currently the volume button on the steering wheels changes the volume but also cycles through apps, is there any fix for this?
Xtrons unit: pb76attap
I have a rooted unit, and i bought a usb remote control. When i use it to lower the volume, the joying will turn the volume back up on its own. Is there a way to fix this? Please help. Its frustrating with the side buttons on the tab.
This thing has no home button and I can't figure out how to get this to recovery mode.
Does anyone have experience with this headunit?

I want to change the volume knob click function to the home button. And get Amazon music to work with the front skip button controls since they currently only work with the radio and music app.also af ew other things like nav volume ratio to music when it plays over it. for some reason this head unit settings is very limited.
Hello there all, I recently installed an android head unit from AliExpress, and everything went well until I first noticed that non of the buttons on the wheel worked. I saw many posts about this, but I didn't mind as I really didn't use it much. However, I got a professional to install the reversing camera that came with the head unit and try fixing the steering wheel's buttons. Because the professional attempted to fix the buttons for the steering wheel, he caused non of the buttons below the head unit to work (e.g. radio, the numbers, and turning the circle to try and change the volume). The "professional" was only able to get 2 of the buttons on the steering wheel to work (volume up and down, but you have to hold it down for like 5 seconds before it works), and when I tried to get back to him, they didn't respond. Also some reason, the volume will randomly mute every now and then (e.g. listening to music and the volume goes to 0).
I have seen many other threads about checking fuses and removing the battery for 10 minutes; however, I was wondering if there may be other fixes you guys may have that may help before attempting the battery method.
I would also like to say that I'm not overly confident working with or in cars. However, if there is a video or a simple explanation on how to do the fix, that would help make me feel confident.

edit: I have checked both 15amp and the 7.5amp and they were both fine.

Have you set the right car in the CAN-settings menu?
Clarify if your steering wheel buttons are provided via CAN or resistor related. (Car dealer)

I have set the CAN-settings to what the seller provided from AliExpress.
However, I think the steering wheel buttons are functional by resistors/resistance. (e.,g. wiring of KEY1, KEY2 and KEY GND).
I have a feeling that the "professional" may have done something to the wiring or such just to get the steering wheel buttons to work but in the process, he has made the radio control panel buttons not work anymore.
My main focus is just to fix the radio control panels (the picture below) as I use those way more than any other buttons on the steering wheel.

The radio control panel is provided by the CAN.
As no one knows what they did to the wiring, any help with it is no possible. You need to talk with the "professional" to get this fixed.
In your case about the SW buttson are connected to the resistor cales, you just need to search for the related app to set them. This is no automatism. May be you need to search for the SW in the settings. As I don´t know your system, I am not able to provide more help here.
Edit: You may test some other CAN-settings, may be they changed something and this leads to the issue with the radio buttons.

I get that, I don't really care about the SW buttons. I'm mainly just more focused on trying to figure out the radio control panel. I'm confused because the radio control panel stopped working as I had the "professional" help. Also, it's hard to talk with them again as they gave just left me on read for about 2 weeks now (from Airtasker).
I'll have another look tomorrow deeper into the CAN-settings, and will message the AliExpress seller for some help as I remember they said a problem like this might occur without the correct CAN-settings as you mentioned as well.

Did you manage to get this sorted?
Hey guys!
I’ve been searching a ton for an answer on this… but can’t seem to find anything. I installed my Joying 13” head unit and wired up front speakers (will do my rears another weekend). The head unit is great, except that the volume is stuck at a high setting. I use the volume up/down buttons and the volume slider changes and the numbers go up and down, but the actual volume doesn’t change. It’s like the software isn’t talking to the hardware…
Any suggestions? I’m thinking of updating firmware in case that might work… but out of the box I would think the volume would work.
Thanks all!
@opexo any ideas
