Chinese Double Din Radio Help - Android Head-Units

Hello,
I have just bought a Ossuret JGQTR92P car radio on ebay.
Radio is useless, as picks up very few channels, I was going to try and install amplified aerial to see if helps, radio app is not very good, was hoping someone had a better radio app with RDS that I could install ?.
But mainly I was looking for firmware updates etc to try and make interface a lot better. Does anyone own one of these or is aware of where to obtain the latest firmware ?
Thank you

Best apps to replace stock apps (Radio)

Hi.
I have a Eonon GA5161F car head unit running on Kit Kat.
It comes with a built in FM radio app which uses the cars aerial, but I would like to download a similar app that looks better than the stock app but am struggling to find one. Just want an FM app that uses the aerial and not data or wifi.
Also, what are the best apps to have on an android head unit?
Many thanks
I think it is not easy. I've been searching for a while... and nothing founded.
The radio app seems to be linked to the MCU. ANd I have not found anything generic ( for multiples MCUs).
If you find anything, please gice an advice
Thanks indeed!

FM Radio keeps scanning for stations

Hi,
I have one of the cheap Chinese Android 9.0 headsets with the PX6 Octa-core Processor 1.5 GHz RK3399 (Radio Chip NXP 6686). The model is Fongent Car Android 9.0 Radio Multimedia Player PX6 4G RAM 64G ROM.
The problem I have with it is that the radio will not stay on any station that I choose. Everytime, I switch to a programmed station, it starts to scans after like 10 second and always stops on the first station in memory that it had found. It is getting very annoying now. I tried to fiddle around with the AF TA PTY settings but that didn't do anything.
Anyone has experience with this radio app? Is there another one I can use that doesn't need internet connection to use and can use the antenna?
Please help!
Thank you.
Somewhere in the radio settings you must also select the correct region: japan/europe/etc.
Did you do that?

Yep, i had to do this on mines when i first got it. it was still set to China. Also if you flash the wrong MCU file it could also cause this issue.

I didn't flash anything. The unit is as it came from the factory. I did change the region to US. The radio has automatically programmed different stations under P1, P2, P3, etc all the way to P18 I think. But always stops at 88.7 New station. Even if I choose a different station like P5 or whatever...I get to listen to that station for like 5 seconds or whatever and then it starts to scan and then stop at 88.7! So frustrating. To the point, I just want to use a different FM app for this. But I don't know of any that uses the FM radio to broadcast instead of looking for an internet connection. I am not looking for internet radio.

It happened to me with some radio stations, I solved the problem by turning off the TA.
First question did you contact your seller about this? When you do get to listen to a station does it sound clean? Are you moving or parked? Can you manually tune in or enter a station frequency and see if it starts to scan again? It's possible your car has an amplified antenna and it needs a power injector. Otherwise I'd say something is wrong with the radio and you should send it back.

No I did not contact the seller in China about this. Yes the station sounds clean and clear. I have tried it while parked and/or moving. It doesn't make a difference. Yes I can manually move the tuner to a different station and it plays for a few second and then again starts to scan. It does NOT stay in a particular station other than 88.7. Everything was ok with the stock stereo that came with the car. Is there only on radio app on Android 9.0? Can I not try a different radio app to see if that work? Mailing the unit back would be more hassle that it is worth. To me it is a software issue or some settings/tweaks that needs to be made.
Well I understand that shipping back to China is less than ideal, but your seller is better placed to help you than any of us especially with the little bit of information you provided. Best case they can give you an MCU update that could fix the problem or at the very least work with you to adjust settings in the service menu. Or they may realize the MCU is defective and send you a replacement. The only alternative radio apps I know of are only for MTC MCU. Yes the radio chip is controlled by the MCU so you're not likely to find a generic radio app.

8227L_demo

Hi,
hello, i bought this radio from aliexpress (https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000620695689.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.421e4c4dx9cnJf / MT8227L 4-Core Android 10 2GB+32GB (Radio IC: ST7708, Amp IC: AC 7315, DSP normal)) but the concerns turned out:
1) First, the radio always turns on for a long time (as if the memory is cleared. While the radio channels are still there).
2) Searching for a gps signal takes a very long time.
3) The radio loses the signal in the meantime when the car is switched off.
4) There are very few options to configure. Even in menu 8888.
There is no help from the Chinese. As always Tried different cables, locations, etc.
Since I already had one experience with Chinese android software, it is clear that the error is in android software.
Although there was another android radio but with malaysk mod software all the troubles were solved.
Here is the Chinese android radio software: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z0UrWRHSb_ZCvt3YsDVytRMMHUutrVpT/view?usp=sharing
Can anyone help or provide better software or improve existing one?

From the few pictures you posted, I think your device is a FF-5500 right? If so, then it uses the same firmware as Junsun V1 and Hizpo ad907001

PX5 S32F0 wrong MCU? Please help!

Hi my friends!
I bought a second hand unit, with no sound, only beeps!
Previous owner flashed device with an update, and he got no radio, very low sound on youtube, so he sold it like that!
Can someone help to verify wich unit i have exactly so i can flash proper MCU?
Attached some pics, of MCU currently installed, and also from the motherboard.
Is this a XRC unit?
Thanks in advance!
check if in the advanced settings (password 0000121) you have the right audio output setting (DSP, etc.)

Hi mate.
Yes, i eventually flashed proper MCU, its was 6686 and not 7708.
But i also updated to android 10, and before i had malysk rom in settings i remember that i could choose between 6686 and 7708 driver for radio?
After update to android 10 i dont have that setting to change...and i guess i left it set in 7708.
At the moment everything seems to work, but radio has very low sound, only hear at max volume and very low.
All other apps, youtube, spotify sound works and intended.
Now i would like to downgrade to malysk rom, but dont know if its possible, just to be able to change that, maybe thats a fix for radio?
Any help i apreciate
Thanks
Hello Friend!
One question... I have one
Erisin ES8180E MCU: S32F0_leima
PX5
For about a couple of days the car radio hasn't turned off anymore, do you have any idea what it could be?
Before when I removed the key from the dashboard the radio would turn off now it doesn't happen anymore ...
I would like to try to update the MCU or reinstall the same MCU but I don't know where to get it and the dealer does not answer me ..
Anything you need, photos or information are at your complete disposal
I hope you can help me.
Thanks so much!

Better firmware or app for my SC9863A unit

Hi guys, i have a Hizpo (Chinese) head unit with SC9863A with basic factory fw (details in screenshot). It is basically doing what it is supposed to do, however i cant find any way to get the traffic assist function to work.
FM Radio app is working, but when i want to listen to music player (or use navi or any other app), it will not interrupt it with traffic announcement from radio station. Unit of course has the TA function. The option is there in the radio app, looks like it is working, but in reality it is not.
I think that just the radio app isnt able to be shown on top of another app (music, navi...). However there is no such option in settings. Or maybe the fm radio app is just useless.
Is there any good app for my unit, which can replace original fm radio app? I have found the NavRadio app here, will that get the job done? Or maybe, is there any fw which i can use instead of the original one? I can imagine that the unit will work better with some better firmware.

This is not a FYT unit. I will request to have it moved to the general Android head units sub-forum
