Hello everyone,
I bought a new Tesla Style android unito for Ford Fiesta 2010 and today arrived. I did installed it (I had to cut some plastic on my car to be able to install it), but the unit have big problems with the screen, as you may see on attached picture. I have to mention that touchscreen is working, on all corners or all buttons I'm pushing, just the image is not working.
This is the unit I'm talking about: aliexpress.com/item/4000022496112.html
I did contacted the seller and he told me to try reinstalling the unit software, I did tried but notthing changed, even on installation display was the same, as you may see on this video: drive.google.com/file/d/1hgqfd4W-57PYZFKGQa5Mjws05eIN-nv6/view
Because I'm new, it seems I'm not able to post pictures, so I have uploaded some of them here: imgur.com/a/kExwFrH
Seller told me that he will talk tomorrow morning with their engineer and come with a solution, but in the meantime, maybe some of you had similar issues or you may have a clue on what's wrong.
I'm really sorry about the links, I'm not trying to promote or make spam, but I can't show you the issues otherwise.
Thank you!
Seller told me that TFT board is damaged and he sent another one by post. As soon as I get it, I'll see if this fixes the issue, in case someone else have same issue.
Seller sent another TFT board, but the issue wasn't sorted out and he did sent another unit. I've got it today and is working perfect so far, I still don't know what was wrong with the other one, but I'll send it back to the seller. Anyway, my issue was sorted out, so this thread can be closed.

Hi there,
im not sure if this is the right chapter for this, but i have a hardware issue.
I've bought an 8inch vw android radio from aliexpress. according to the mainboard it is an DU8015-m-1v5
The problem is in the display, when it's could outside (which is around 6 degrees centigrade or lower) the display turns to white where it should be nice and black. Once the temperature gets higher the display gets quite normal again.
Now i have had this issue since day 2 (after arrival when i built in the radio) and made reclamations to the seller, which told me they would send me a new display which would fix the problem. I asked them to send me a complete new headunit, but they wouldnt. this should be an easy fix.
Now afther whining and going on about it at the seller i have received the wrong display, the original has 2 flat cables and a power connector... the seller tells me to replace it anyway.
I guess this will brick my device immediately (or at least blow some fuses) ??
here's a link to all photos of both displays https://goo.gl/photos/vs1GHJKBnjtnf6Eq5
any technicians who can help me out and tell me if i'm right or wrong ??
Hi folks, the bottom 10% of the digitizer panel on my Joying JY-UL134N2 10.1 screen has failed, just the very bottom edge of the screen area has failed ie enough to cover the bottom line of the screen keyboard.
I "think" its an FYT unit.
Joying support will be no use and wont care about helping as it is out of warranty, all they will care to do is to try to sell me a complete new stereo.
Can anyone suggest a source for a replacement part? Seems a shame to scrap a good sofia 3gr unit just for this when I could give it to a friend otherwise.
One last try, anyone able to help?

Thanks, its similar (same soft buttons down left side) but not the same.
The Joying one has a near identical ribbon at the bottom but near the left end, its perfectly rectangular with rounded corners and the mic, power and reset pinholes are located differently. I should try to get a pic up.
Basically its this : https://www.amazon.ca/JOYING-Marshmallow-1024x600-Bluetooth-Navigation/dp/B01MTS75RS
Im sure a while back I saw some discussion on replacements of the same type but I cant find that info now.
I've got a 7 inch one from a failed Joying unit in my garage (never again). Send a picture of the cable connection and I'll see if it matches.
Thanks but wouldnt that require most of a case change as well as full screen assembly surely, assuming the board and so on fit?
I know what you mean Ill never pay another penny to joying, shameful attitude to support.
Its not a very good pic.
Does that whole thing not have a cable that connects to the head-unit - that's what I was expecting.
It does, a white ribbon cable, i dont know the pin count, i think the design changed at lest once for that cable on these units.
I can try to get a pic next couple of days and post it.
I havent forgotten about this, been busy with work, ill try to get the pic up this weekend.
Err delete sorry!
Anyone find a solution to this? I have something similar, I have an 8" that has a crack in the screen. Much like original poster said Joying has no interest in finding a replacement, I figure while I am at it I would like to go up to the 10.1 cause I know my 8" and my 10.1" use the same connector and mount. But I am surprised how hard it is to find a replacement screen, would really appreciate any input
Hi I purchased this s8 model double din from amazon a few weeks ago and ever since i have been looking for a community like this to modify it. The few issues i am having rn with it is that the softwares a little slow ,touch screen is unresponsive, and that sometimes itll over heat. Im not sure how far i am able to go with the double din since i dont know where to look for the actual model number. The product itself has a S8 marking on the front and it comes with a reverse camera. Its also one of those models that display your cars logo but i couldnt find lexus in there .

What we can read out of your first posting is. that there are serious problems with it...
Overheating, unresponsive touch screen and little slow are serious issues which needs to be addressed to the supplier.
Apps are to be downloaded via Google Play Store... or any other source.
Before you didn´t post the exact unit including:
MCU version
Android version
built in CPU
...none can help.
Hello!
I have ordered a new Android 11 - 8Gb RAM 256Gb ROM - 12.5 inch screen for W205 Mercedes.
The OEM UI works fantastic, even the starting Android UI app selection works fine, but when I enter GooglePlay and login, the screen starts to flicker.
I download Youtube somehow, open it and watch a video - it works fine. Then I minimize the video and start scrolling the video search list, flickers again.
If I exit youtube, back to OEM screen - flickers are gone... but if I go back they appear again.
Any clues?
I will post two sample videos for reference

Unfortunately, the forum crystal ball doesnt know what you unit is and from the hundreds of made up models and brands, the seller could be selling units of different types, from different factories, despite branding with the same model name.
There are are a small number of active members in these forums, you want to be posting in a way that helps those people help you, they're likely tired of answering the same questions for new users that join, get answered (often not) and then leave.
Post screenshots from Android system information, including the MCU version when posting questions. Doing this will at least help others help you, or you might find the information has already been posted or discussed here, yourself.
Curious, what does the seller suggest when contacted for support.

Thank you and sorry for the non-detailed description. I was thinking it might just be a setting inside the android developer settings that someone might know straight from the video example. My fault...
I've also sent a message to the seller (aka "official navifly factory"), no reply yet.
As soon as I get to the car tomorrow I will post the rest of the info, also I will post the seller info if I get a reply by then.

What I've discovered is that when I turn on dark mode, it doesn't flicker as far as I've been able to test.
But when there is a google app with full white background (light mode), it tends to flicker...

Well... Even in China it is called Weekend... and they don´t work on Sunday.
On top they are something about 6 hrs a day in front (German summertime related) and if you are located in the US, you may have a time difference of 12 hrs, dependent on your location, so may be you will get an answer tomorrow.
Regarding your sent pictures: I fear there is not a single user who can help with this kind of issue. You need to wait for the seller and their statement.
Have you checked cpu temps etc. could potentially be overheating
Good point, @deadeye920
Does it only flicker in YouTube?

I will check the temps, it really does seem as if it works good in the first 30 sec to 1 min and then the black lines take over, so it would make sense

No, as far as I've seen, any Android app that has a strong white background will start flickering. I've switched the theme today to dark mode and the glitches weren't appearing.
For example, I would have GooglePlay entry screen in dark mode that isn't flickering with a 'login' button which would take me to a light theme (white background) Google login page that again starts flickering.
Going back to a dark screen removes these distortions again, as seen in video
When eye protection mode is on it works... I suppose the ribbon cable is defected?
Did you ever fix this issue? I have the same issue with the flickering black but mine show up as scrolling horizontal lines. I just installed an android unit 2 days ago I know it's not the same unit but your post is kinda similar to my issue. Thank you.

Would you know what the factory password is for this device? I bought a similar one Navifly, Snapdragon 662, 6/128 for and while I do not have any flickering, I need to set up the screen to show the original BMW screen with the correct resolution.
Hi guys,
Complete and utter noob when it comes to most of these things but XDA have helped me out many times so I'm hoping somebody can at least guide me in the right direction here.
I have an android aftermarket unit in my BMW X5 e70 (came with the car so details are vague) that has never worked.
I can see the android screen just about (clearer in some light than in others) and vaguely make out the BMW idrive behind the android screen, as if they're overlaying one another.
I've attached a video to try and demonstrate what's happening.
https://imgur.com/a/OV4bFRd
Basically, is this unit screwed or is there anything I can try and do to save it, reflash any firmware the MCU? Reflow a couple of chips maybe? (I assume this is not caused simply by something being loose but I am about to check all connections) I'm in a but if a rush because if it can't be saved I need to order a replacement ASAP to get it fitted before the car is due in the garage for some warranty work (this is not covered unfortunately)
Many thanks in advance!
Try calibration of screen, search the net for how to calibrate for that unit. Usually it is activated by pressing each finger on every corner of touch screen till see calibration windows and guidance for completion.
