I have the above unit in my ford, and I'm trying to connect a usb dash cam, the unit built in dvr app doesnt recognize the camera, so I installed Usb Host Diagnostics app and the unit recognized the camera.
I installed several usb camera apps and some worked.
A rom that doesnt support usb host?
Is there such a thing?

Hi,
I've brought a endoscope from ebay which just plugs into the micro-usb port on the phone. For some reason the LED lights come on, on the camera but the camera itself isn't found by any usb webcam apps. I tried with my girlfriends moto G and still nothing. Thinking maybe the camera is faulty I used the supplied micro-usb to USB adapter and plugged it into my windows 10 laptop and without installing drivers and using the stock windows 10 webcam app it worked.
I then tried it on my old galaxy S4 running lollipop (running a custom rom haven't bothered updating it) and the camera works fine with the same app I tried using on my note 4. So I'm assuming there's some issue with marshmallow? Weird thing is if I plug in a usb drive or even my wireless mouse it recognizes both of them and I have no issues it's just the external camera. Anyone got any suggestions on what to do?
different usb devices require different drivers.
and with android if the driver isn't baked into the rom, the device can't be used.
I have what is hopefully a simple and straight forward question. I purchased this unit about 12 months ago https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot...&orderId=87843158798481&productId=32807153130 and I have both a DVR USB Camera and DAB+ Module connected to the 2 USB ports on the rear of the unit.
It appears that one of the USB ports is faulty, so I can only get reliable DVR or DAB+ but not both. If I were to buy a small, simple USB Hub like this https://www.aliexpress.com/item/keb...-Splitter-Hub-Adapter-For-PC/32889011052.html, connected it to the working USB and then connected the USB Camera and DAB+ Module to the hub, would this work?
Thanks for reading!
I'm not certain if it works correctly on Android 6, but on my unit that has Android 8 i have a similar USB Hub connected that has a memory stick, the TPMS receiver and the receiver for a wireless keyboard, they all work correctly.
Taking into account how cheap a USB Hub is, i think it's worth checking it out.
Also, i managed to get one of the USB connectors into the glove compartment and connect the USB Hub into it, so the devices are easily accessible but not too visible.
Note, if you can take the unit out and send it to a service, they can probably fix the USB connector (the one that doesn't always work), it might have a loose connection, they sometime come loose and can be resoldered to the motherboard.
Also, if you open the unit and check the motherboard, some units have a 3rd internal connector that needs an adapter, not all of them though.
I bought a USB TPMS system from Aliexpress priced ~30eur with external sensors to try with one of my cars.
I've tried connecting the receiver to both the PX5 unit and the PX6 unit that I have. The USB stick that supposedly has the software for the unit, is not recognised by the Android at all. A windows computer says "USB device is malfunctioning". When I connect the USB TPMS receiver to either of the units or to my windows laptop, there is no indication of anything working. It does not show up on device manager in Windows, nor do any of the TPMS softwares seem to find the receiver on the Android Head Units.
Is there something simple that I am missing, or is the unit DOA? I opened the 4 screws on the USB unit to see if there were bad solder joints or cables not connected, but I didn't see any. Any advice would be appreciated.
Some tpms require apps from the tpms manufacturers, not the HU app.
Try downloading storebao USB tpms from play store. I had same issue and this app worked albeit I still can't get all sensors working but I believe that is sensor related.
Hello
I bought a Android Head Unit for my Car with a USB Dashcam.
Sadly the Original Dashcam App is like **** and other Dascam Apps doesn't detect the USB Camera
Is there any possibility that other Apps can detect the Camera? Or is there any USB Camera on the Market that is detected System wide?
Thank you!
Good morning
I have a topway ts7 and the USB port does not work anymore and also when I plug in a phone it does not charge. the topway is plugged into my car. there is a fuse for the usb
Probably you have 2 USB ports, I have noticed they sometimes swap, one is for DVR camera, and second for external usb memory/phone connection etc., try different port if you have 2 ports.
