Hello everyone.
People, I recently bought a car radio of Joying brand. The model is the JY-UQ130U with RK3188 1.6 GHz processor, 7-inch screen, 1024x600 resolution.
Anyway, I'm having a problem with this car radio. Every time I turn off my car for a longer time, for example thirty minutes or more, the radio information is reset (time, date and presets radio stations).
Is there anything that can be done in this case? Is there any way to prevent this from happening?
Taking the opportunity, it is possible (and recommended) to make the car radio works with the car turned off and without putting the key in the ACC position I?
Thank you very much.
I hope you can help me.
You have it wired wrong. One of the cables require 12V when the cars switch is off. The other 12V power wire wired to be off when the switch is off. The clock requires constant power. Probably reversed the 2 12V wire.
Not a radio problem.
Joying 10.1 with 6.1 update
96 lexus ls400 with 6.0.1 marshmallow started having serious issues. First, the display won't turn off. It continues running even if the car is off with no key in ignition and the car is locked. Also the buttons and screen light up but the buttons don't work at all, not even the power button on the detatchable face or the reset button next to it. Also, the USB connections don't work so I can install my photos videos or music via usb...what the heck is going on? I haven't had the unit for a year yet and I take excellent care of all my belongings especially my cars. The manufacturer takes a year and a day to respond and hardly speak clear even in messages so I'm lost. No warranty either. I've tried everything except returning it or buying a new one or taking it apart.
Due to the problem of Opel Astra H having the 2-Din slot quite low, I want to try to install a head unit in the place of the standard Opel display on top of the dash panel. Since there is not enough space behind that display, I'd have to install only the display of the head unit and then put the unit somewhere else - maybe behind the actual 2-Din slot or the glove compartment. Since I don't have a head unit yet (partly because it depends on whether I can do the above), I thought I'd ask here.
1. Looking at pictures of various HUs, it seems removing the front panel with display should be no problem, for example on this unit - https://de.aliexpress.com/store/pro...ith-Octa-Core-2GB-Ram/600991_32805474302.html . Is this the case or are there HUs with the display glued to the HU or otherwise unable to be removed?
2. Is there just one flat cable connecting the display to the HU or are there more? I'm talking about HUs with touch buttons, like the Dasaita unit linked above, not ones with rotary knobs for Vol/Tuner and mechanical buttons for Home, Nav, Radio, etc. Maybe someone can upload a picture of his HU with the front removed?
Hi All,
I just got this unit from amazon. I have the quad core 2GB RAM 16GB ROM 10.1" version which came with Android 8.1. Installation was easy and the unit seems very nice and fast enough but when ever I try to open an app like spotify or youtube or even OBD apps the screen goes black with "DO NOT operate while driving" error. I tried installing a third party launcher and it caused this error every time I tried to go to the home screen. Google maps does not cause this issue.
I currently wired the rear cable to ground just in case wiring causing the issue but that did not help. Under the settings there is no option in the video section which would allow me to turn off this error. Overall the rom on this as is looks half baked missing bunch of options. I do not even have a system update option for me to flash a different firmware.
Any suggestions that could help me get rid of this annoying issue and use this unit properly?
Thank you all.
Seems nobody cares but I finally figured out the solution. Under settings>car options>about there is another settings button. If you select that and enter "8888" it will take you to the deep settings menu where in drive options you change "Break" to "0". This will get rid of this bug permanently.
Thanks in anyways.
I care
I just had the same exact problem with the same radio
thanks so much for taking the time to update your post!
Do you have anymore information on tips and tricks for this radio?
Hi, tried this on my mekede head unit, took a few minutes to figure out which menu to follow and the part to alter but it worked great. Awesome. Cheers

Good job on figuring it out... I went through this with the same exact head unit...
Let me expand on this "problem" a little further please...
So most head units now are more than just a radio/CD player ..specifically ones with DVD players (or ones that can play any video really) the manufacturers can be held liable for people getting into an accident while driving because they were watching a movie or had a movie playing (Cant fix stupid) on their head unit located on the dash (as well as it being illegal in most (if not all) states in the USA).
REAR DVD players are exempt from this because... well they are in the rear... and not in the driver's line of sight.
With that being said, one wire on the harness that came with this unit (wire #23 I think) is labeled " BRAKE CONTROL" - IF (a big IF here) EONON set this up like most other head unit manufacturers that make an in dash DVD/video display, this wire needs to be connected to the brake switch so that it receives a signal saying that the brake is "on" and the vehicle is not moving...therefore "SAFE" to operate this unit (watch a movie, video, make setting changes, brew you a cup of coffee, paint your nails etc etc etc......)
Because there is NO REALLY good diagram for wiring this to the brake switch... you are left with a guess as to how it is to be done. (Should just be a positive connection from parking brake to wire.... I think... I guess...)???
This brake safety feature has been in other units for years and a LOT of people negate this circuit (I wont list the ways... it's easy to figure out) I even know of some car installers that worked for a national electronic retail store that would "bypass" this circuit in the customer's cars.
I am glad Eonon put this programming control into the back end of the unit because I, (having installed a few radios in numerous vehicles I have owned) REALLY didnt want to go through the trouble of bypassing the circuit... so shutting it off, on The unit was just as well for me. 1 less wire to worry about.
Just go into the root menu as stated above, and select "BRAKE" then adjust to 0. This removes all enable/disable requirements for that circuit.
Great unit so far... wish Eonon would spend more time writing a more informative instruction manual.. and maybe hire an American or British to actually write the darn thing so people could understand it.
Hope this helps.
I have the same unit but I can't get the panel to light up. Anyone knows how to wire to the car to get the panel to light up?

Panel as in the buttons not on the touch screen? (Ie power, volume up volume down )
Wire (I believe its orange or blue in color if my memory serves me well) regardless it has a tag on it that says "ILL" or ILLUM... that's for illumination. You need to figure out what wire in your car is for illumination for the stereo... if you cant, run a wire from your headlight switch that controls the parking light. USUALLY, there is a wire for the stereo to make it light up when the headlights are turned on. You just need to find it.

Yep. In the Eonon harness, it's an Orange wire with a tag on it that says "ILL". just hook it to any wire that feeds your dash lights.
Dears,
anybody tried Eonon GA2178 - 10" Android 9 Head Unit?
I'm actually on Eonon GA2168K - 10" Android 8 Head Unit, it's a good device with minor problems.
Anytime developers fix a problem they introduce an other problem and there's no community support for MTK chipsets.
Because of this I'm evaluating the new Eonon GA2178, that is quite similar but based on Rockchip chipset.
Tks!
Brake setting
On my Ga2172 the brake setting shows open close or speed, so which is it to watch video on the move?
Hi all,
I bought an Android HU from Aliexpress for my 2016 Volvo S60.
It is a PX3 device but I am not sure if it is a MTCD/E or something like it.
It is only a display unit with an android/MCU board and has no amplifier etc.
Normally it shows the original car menus (stretched to >8 inch wide) on it and when you push and hold the menu
button on original car console it switches to Android UI. In short, it is a little different then usual Android HUs.
I am pretty satisfied with the unit but there is one deal breaker for me. When I stop the engine and remove the key from car,
Android HU shuts off instead off sleeping. So when I want to use the car again, it takes 40-50 seconds the unit to boot.
I have also a Px5 unit in my VW car and it instantly awakes when I start the engine.
What I want to ask is if it is a software option? Can I somehow make the unit sleep.
Do you think this unit compatible with Hal9K or Malaysk Px3 roms?
If PX3 sleeping not possible can I use a PX5 board to upgrade the unit?
Thanks in advance...
P.S: I attached a couple of photos of the unit. There is also some factory setting page shots.
Factory setting password of the unit is 1314....
No one no help?
I just got a 2020 Subaru Ascent and the factory head unit suuuucksss!
Trying to index a 480gig SSD makes it lag so much!
The only thing you can do with the steering wheel is next track and volume. Everything else you need to look at and touch the screen.
And every time you browse the folders it starts back at the root with no way to jump to where you were.
I'm considering the Joying 9.7" 8.1 head units that can do portrait. All three look to be the same with Intel Airmont eight-core 1.8GHz SC9853i. Am I missing something that they all seem to have the same features?
The first one is $65 cheaper for some reason but has a motor to rotate the screen.

I'll be customizing almost everything about the head unit so single/double DIN doesn't really mater. I'll be making a custom bezel for the screen to go over the factory unit and remote mounting the rest.
The factory head unit has to stay because it controls parts of the car. The new screen will be hinged or something so you can access the factory unit.
With all the threads about problems, wanting to get root and the default apps not working well, it makes me want to build my own.
What would be the challenges to making my own Android system?
In my previous car I had a mini-ITX Windows computer running RideRunner.
Thanks.
