Hi, Sorry for the noob question but I am new to Android Headunits. My Car Honda City had a non-android head unit which stopped working so I had to replace it and I procured a new head unit from the local market and got it installed. Now the problem is that I want to use steering controls on Apps Such as Saavn, Spotify etc but I tried using the MTCDTools which didn't work for me. My Headunit has PX5 board but in the MCU field, there is something else. I am attaching the pictures of the same and will be very helpful If someone can help me figure out how I can make the steering controls work. They Work on Radio, Bluetooth and Native Music Player.
Also, Is it possible to root this android headunit as I was looking to install Viper4Android. It doesn't have any card slot there are only USB Slots available

Hi everyone !
I've been browsing the web for the last 4 month to solve my issues with this Andream Head Unit on Android 8.1.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And I didn't find anything that could help me, so here is my two problems:
First one,
When I use the Z-Link app with the integrated Apple CarPlay solution, it may freeze sometimes and I have to wait until the application unfreeze.
It may happen when I drive with Waze or when I'm on the track screen. So basically, when something is moving on the screen.
I've asked for an update of this app but it seems that the guy at Andream wait till I forget the problem to answer me...
I thought it was a heat issue, but I've put a fan and a few heat sink on the cpu, now he stay between 40 and 70 degree Celsius.
Second One,
The steering wheel control doesn't work at all. I've got an Audi TT mk2 2010, and when I purchased the Head Unit, the guy sent me a BMW can bus decoder. Then after I tell him that I have an Audi, he sent me an Audi can bus decoder. So I manage the cable to have the Audi decoder working because it wasn't the same pins connector. Now, the head unit detect when I light on the car headlight, but when I go to the steering wheel control app, I can't register more than one control and when I test it, nothing happen...
So I'm wondering if I'll purchase or not the new Sony XAV-AX100. But I just wanted this thing to work ! :crying:
I hope you could bring me some help ! Best regards !
Hi All
Im new here so if this is the wrong place to post this please move it to the relevant section.
I have a Pumpkin NA7021B single din head unit, I am aware that Pumpkin is just a re-seller and not the maker of the head unit and their help is somewhat limited. The problem I have is none of the apps are working, they open but just hang. I have tried downloading various APKs, google play services, google play store, google maps, but most fail to install or will install but hang when opened or just fail to open. I have updated the MCU as suggested by Pumpkin to version 648f8bba-ef09-11e4-8185-000c29ba27c0 but that did nothing. I have reset the HU using the rst button via the hole in the front of the HU but that only resets the user data (wifi, Bluetooth etc).
Is there a way to access the android recovery so I can do a factory restore. I have tried the factory restore via the HU GUI without any luck.
The HU still functions fine, radio, wifi, GPS all work fine and I am able to use google or chrome to access the net. I have spent hours looking for ways to try to force the unit into the android recovery with no success and am now at a loss at what to do next.
I have contacted pumpkin requesting instructions on how to access the android recovery but have yet to get any reply from them.
Any help, suggestions, tips, or tricks will be greatly appreciated.
I have attached a pic with the head unit details.

Hi all, I hope everyone is doing well.
I am new to the forums and first time posting, so please don't kill me!
Looking forward to get a tesla style unit for my Lexus RX350 2007 with Factory Nav and backup camera. I am located in Texas - USA.
Was just wondering if you guys have any recommendations what would be the best/fastest unit available for my car. The goal would be to keep the OEM backup camera and possibly have compatibility with custom firmwares, like Sergey's for example (could be any other).
I am not a picky person as far as sound quality, all I am really looking for on the unit is to be able to use the OEM camera, Spotify, google maps, Control4 (home automation application) and maybe some youtube now and then.
To be able to have the unit in Dark mode would be a huge plus too.
I sent a message to this seller and he replied confirming this unit is pretty much “plug and play-ish” (needs the original AC board) and supports the OEM backup camera. He also sent me a screenshot showing the Device Information. Not sure if you guys have seen or worked if this unit before. The seller said they usually release updates every quarter or so, not sure if this is true.

(I would get the 6gb RAM/128gb model)

Hi,
I tried to search but did not find anything, and do apologize if this is a sort of a question everyone is sick of.
The unit is in the Honda accord 2007 we got. It appears to be a seicane, i think, based on the outside. I did not rip it out yet to see what is on the back side of it.
From the interface it does not seem to have any way to show its Android signature. All i can see is this screen shown below.
The Navi function does not work - if i press that button, just nothing happens. The car controls, AC, radio all seem to work. Both SD card slots on both sides of the unit are empty.
I am unable to find any details online for this unit, looks like it may be an older one? Would be great to figure out if it is upgradable, and what firmware can be used on it.
Please help.
Thx, Paul.
PS. I already switched radio to 'US' setting, as it was not tuning in properly.

This is for sure an older Win CE5 or 6 unit.
If you want to stay on it, you need to find an older Win CE navigation, because all the stuff of the navigation incl. maps needs to be on this SD card. The Nav button on your unit searches always on the SD card marked with Navi or similar on the front.
...and yes, no one uses these old units anymore, there is at least no support available in this forum.
Good afternoon everyone,
I just recently purchased an Eonon GA2189S Head Unit.
Build number: full_825x_Pro-Octa PPR1.180610.011.eng.root.20200426.093427 userdebug
Custom Build Version: android-trunk-p0.825X_Pro
First problem: One of the main reasons I bought this head unit was to use Torque to monitor engine vitals in my 2009 Infiniti G37 Coupe. The unit comes with a preinstalled version of Torque OBD, but when I try to download themes I am met with the following error (I will attach screenshot). It does not matter what type of Wifi I am connected to, whether its the strong signal from my home or the hotspot on my iphone.
When I emailed Eonon, they said their "Engineer" said its "not compatible with their head unit" and that they are "sorry". I sent an email to Torque customer service to no avail.
I'm really not happy, as I have had it running on my Android Phones for the last 2 years with absolutely no issue. But this unit doesn't even have a reboot button! I need a paperclip to reboot the system.
Does anyone have any experience with this android build, and im looking for info on what modifications I can make to the OS. I want my Torque themes to work and I do not want to be limited!
Please advise with any suggestions or tips - thank you all so much!
