Hi all,
After hooking my phone up to a car stereo, the home and recent key stopped working.
Let me explain:
I just bought a Pioneer avh-x5800dab, with a built in feature that makes it possible to mirror your android device to your head unit. When i unplugged my phone from the head unit, the recent and home button stopped working.
The recent button lights up when i press it, and i can wake and unlock my phone with the home key. Also, both keys works in TWRP. So to me it seems android has unmapped the keys.
Back key works as normal.
I am running KryxOS R1.3
What i have tried so far:
Wipe cache and dalvik.
Uninstalled all apps related to the pioneer head unit.
Dirty flashed the rom.
I would prefer not to clean flash the rom again. Any help and suggestions would be hugely appreciated!
Similar issue
Not sure what causes it but im alao having a similar issue. Home buttong sometimes works on and off but my recent windows key does not register. It recognizes when i tap it but does not work. Also notifications no longer show up at the top.
Having the same issue
Having the same issue with the home and recent buttons, but mine isn't related to the Pioneer software. Notice that I suddenly can't uninstall apps from within the app manager, so I'm wondering if it's related to a security setting. Can't find anything that looks out of place though.

Possible Fix
As I was reviewing some of my settings I got a random notification that I couldn't review a setting because my password had expired. I went into Settings -> Lock Screen and Security and set a new PIN for myself. Home and recent buttons work again and I can delete apps. Weird. Hope it continues to work.

I just installed the new Intel Joying unit today and so far it's a great piece of equipment. Everything seems to work fine so far including my old elm OBDII adapter.
What I can't figure out is where the button light settings are. I've been through every screen on this thing multiple times and can't find it. I've even looked through their help manual that is built into the radio and no mention of it anywhere.
Also, I cannot find out where to change the car logo for when the radio boots up. Did these 2 features not make it into the new version?
Anyone know the password for developer mode and that other protected screen? Maybe it is buried in there?
So, the button light color option does not even show up in the settings menu unless the running lights are turned on in your car.
It's funny to see the option on the menu appear and disappear as I turn the lights on and off. How confusing and strange.
Still looking for the car logo option.
Yeah that "Lantern Color" option is tricky. It won't show up in settings if you don't have voltage on the illum wire. "Backlight Control" set to "Time Control" during daylight hours will also hide it.
Password for advanced settings was changed from 126 to 3368. "Car Brand Logo" is in the 3368 menu.
That worked. Thanks!
Hi All
I have been reading these forums and generally googling day and night trying to work out what went wrong but haven't been able to solve it so far.
So by means of context I bought an android HU (Brand: Andream EW822P8QH) from aliexpress and was working flawlessly until about two weeks ago.
Details can be found aliexpress dot com /item/Octa-Core-2G-RAM-32G-ROM-Car-DVD-Player-Stereo-Android-7-1-Navigation-BT-For/32834839813.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3da24c4dDGESm4
It's running 7.1.2 and was running the CarWebGuru launcher, when apparently it asked for an update.
Since then, none of the physical buttons work. I've lost all steering wheel controls, so am now just reliant on the touch screen itself, so cannot control volume, etc.
Reading all forums, I understood that under Settings - Car Settings - Steering Control settings should allow you to reconfigure all the buttons once again. Unfortunately when I try to load it, the screen goes white, then goes back to the start of the Setting menu. (Interesting, I had a short cut to Steering Controls on my desktop, but again when I launch it, screen goes black then, back to the desktop
I thought there was something in Settings - Car Settings - Extra Settings, by pressing the code 123456, but once again the screen goes white and seems to go back to the start.
It just seems as though, both these settings areas are corrupted/ gone now.
Can anybody provide me with any clues on what I can get this working again?
Happy to do a factory reset, but nothing seems to happen through the Setting menu.
Was thinking is it even possible to install a new ROM etc. I would say while I've done this on my phone, never on a head unit so welcome any advice on which ROM and some guidance on steps.
Oh I can access the Settings - Dev Options by entering the code 7890 so do let me know if you want me to look at anything there. Interesting one last symptom, my navigation menu bar (by swiping down from top of the screen) no longer works., so definitely seems like something buggy is going on.
Thanks in advance to all who reply.
Hi I have an android head unit for my car that I have managed to mess up by putting Spotify into the auto start slot (was navi) as I thought it would be good to come on at the start. The problem I now have is that is has the volume of the sat nav which goes down to 3 and then off. I've tried pressing the reset button on the front of the unit (nothing changed) and also uninstalling Spotify/Navi/maps and it's still the same ???
Is there a way to factory reset these head units?
Thanx for any help I receive ?
I have an Xtrons PX5 that was already installed in my vehicle when I bought it. Something strange is happening with the volume...
The volume slider in Android keeps resetting to 12 every time the unit is powered off and back on. I like to keep this higher (around 20 to 30) as it gives a higher level to my OEM head unit aux input.
It's kinda annoying that I have to increase the volume slider every time the vehicle is switched on. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Have also tried setting the volume in Settings -> volume but still it resets back to 12 every time.
I have the same issue, it's really annoying!
What does reseller suggest when contacted for support

Garry after having a good poke about I have fixed it. You need to set your default boot volume to 30, this is done by accessing the factory settings menu within the unit, then the setting is under the "Other" tab at the top right. you can also change the boot logo there also. see attached. PM me if you get stuck, I used the passcode of 126 to access this menu.
