BLUETOOTH UPGRADES FOR THE XDAIIi

Hi,
Please can anyone advise me whether there is a new version of Bluetooth for the XDA IIi; my current version is BT-PPC/PE version 1.0.0 Build3900. Also is this version mono or stereo compatible? I am considering purchasing Bluetooth headphones but have been advised that the sound quality may only be in mono; however, I am unsure whether this is correct!
Many thanks
ChrisBro

It's always the same problem with these people, you buy their radios with included software and when you need to reset the unit, then the software disappears, I'm at war with OWNICE for that kind of thing, they want to make me pay TWICE what they They already made me pay for the initial purchase, ALL CRAZY
Siempre es el mismo problema con esa gente, uno les compra sus radios con softwares incuidos y cuando uno necesita reinicializar la unindad, entoces los softwares desaparecen, yo estoy en guerra con OWNICE por ese tipo de cosas, me quieren hacer pagar DOS VECEC lo que ya me hicieron pagar en la compra inicial, TODOS UNOS LOCOS

TLINK 1.9.5

Hey,
I just got my Android Head Unit installed a few hours of me trying to figure different stuff out in it and the TLink app disappeared. I checked the settings and it's disabled and i can't seem to find way to Enable it again. I Can't use apple CarPlay anymore. Is there anyone who can help me with this? The seller is not responding me. I've been trying to contact him for quite a few days now.

Hey,
I got the same issue. I Noticed that you need to connect your phone with the Bluetooth first and then proceed to carplay and that way you can hear the person over call. Make sure your wifi is turned off. I know it sounds weird but that's how i foud it to work most often. I use a S10 version.

Hi, do you guys still have this issue?
I found the same workaround as @Sheraz2197 but it is annoying!
I am on TLink 1.8.9 and TS 10.1.1_20220514
Thanks!
EDIT: just found a solution on another post :
Simply remove the t-link app from navigation default app in the settings.

Ts18 (sinosmart head unit) firmware and Android Auto help.

I have just purchased for my Mazda 3 2014 base model a Sino Smart t18 Android head unit. It took a lot of wire runs to get all my buttons on my steering wheel to work and my aux cable to work but I have everything working now. However I cannot get Android Auto to work. I'm connected via cable I go to T-Link it goes through the whole connection process then the app closes and I disconnect. Also in calls there is a literal half second to two second delay between me saying something and the other person hearing something. I believe that to be because the dialer and phone app is an ancient one. Before I upgrade via the Sino Smart firmware assuming that they even have a newer version for it I'd like to know a few things. Are there any fixes for the issues I have? Is there generic firmware I could use and would that be better? I've backed up the APKs and the settings on a flash drive and I'm going to get a firmware from Sino Smart probably today. So I'm not too concerned about reflashing it if such a firmware exists. Here is the relevant links and pictures https://m.aliexpress.com/item/3256801101474736.html?browser_id=72dbac67959e473f86942b305e5c0eff&aff_trace_key=6c41050821be49718de2504f98805203-1662686844295-00677-UneMJZVf&aff_platform=msite&m_page_id=0011831fdd3c4c1d26c057b1ad56416c1c5e891039&gclid=&[email protected][email protected]!12000028949398123!sea&curPageLogUid=POsYIGiN6GMX&algo_pvid=9f563e5a-cc76-4caf-a8d7-20b80d9e9ed2
Here is a google drive with the dump from the unit
Ts18 Sinosmart dump - Google Drive
drive.google.com
The firmware that they gave me was for a TS-10 and I'm not sure that's going to be compatible with what I have. Does anybody know?

Also USB DAC, can I use that or no?

Hello. We have the same hardware as you. TS18 8581A (TopWay) 4GB+64GB
AK7604
QN8035
Android 11 (Possibly Fake).
Fake Device Test application does not work.
Android Auto Exits the App when the connection is made. But it continues to work immediately after re-entering the application.
I am not satisfied with the Bluetooth Phone call either. I hope there is a solution. I've been watching your thread. Do you have an external microphone? I think it might be a problem with the built-in microphone.
By the way, what does a USB DAC do? (Translate Google)

These units are garbage.

A USB dac is a way to get digital audio out from the head unit. This way it sounds a lot better. I'm running my own external amplifier. Yeah mine's actually legit and lets me run that fake test stuff, I suspect you're running Android 10 if they're stopping you from checking. That's kind of why I want to see if there's firmware out there for like there is for the TS-10s. As for an external microphone I'm using this Sujeetec Pro Lavalier Microphone... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08Z3LV1FG?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

That may be the case but for $400 or less there's just not much out there for my car. If I had the Bose system then I would have been fine but the non Bose there's only just now coming on to the market other decent options. However all of them are basically just variations of this unit. I know there's a ton of firmware out there for the TS-10s so I'm just wondering if there's one for the TS-18s

USB dac, dijital sesi ana üniteden çıkarmanın bir yoludur. Bu şekilde kulağa çok daha iyi geliyor. Kendi harici amplifikatörümü çalıştırıyorum. Evet, benimki aslında yasal ve bu sahte test şeylerini çalıştırmama izin veriyor, kontrol etmenizi engelliyorlarsa Android 10 çalıştırdığınızdan şüpheleniyorum. Bu yüzden TS-10'larda olduğu gibi orada bir ürün yazılımı olup olmadığını görmek istiyorum. Harici mikrofona gelince, bu Sujeetec Pro Yaka Mikrofonunu kullanıyorum... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08Z3LV1FG?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

HU'nun arkasında harici bir amplifikatör çıkışı vardır. Sağ ön sol ve subwoofer için. Sanırım arka sol ve sağ çıkışı da var. Ama bir soket kablom yok (C3-C4 pin). (Google Çeviri)

This is true but the output levels are only 1.5 volts and the sample rate and audio quality is not amazing. A usb dac will bring better audio than the inbuilt chip as well as provide higher voltage. Also these do not have rear output so you have to use a line level converter which sucks because mine pops and crackles at above 70% volume.

All right I got some codes for this unit. Thanks to Vista2611
Factory - 123456
developer mode - 7890(**). (**) is your current time in military time. example ..if u try it at 3.00pm just key in 789015. Or if it's 3am it's 789003

Hello Fried, Hi All
I have TS18 too not exactly the same I think... For tl link can you give the version of tl link?
For the call problem, I don’t have good new... I have exactly the same issue...
For detail (#my story) I bought this unit 6 month ago... everything works correctly except call issue... I exchange with the vendor since the beginning to work around… He made me lot of this update reset etc…. Nothing works… one time after reset I lose some functions (TLink, button on the screen of the unit… he give me new version of tlink (1.8.9)) … brief after 6 months nothings works to solve the call issue. So the vendor send me a new mainboard. New version of Tlink (nice!!) but the call issue is exactly the same….
Now I bored, I will use it like that I think. In addition, I think this problem is due to the design of the board…
Ha, for Tlink at the beginning it was in version 1.6.9. It work pretty good to connect etc. after the big reset he give me version 1.8.9., in this version I have to execute two time the connection to the screen android auto…
Now with the new version it seem work correctly, I have to do some test. I have installed the board just this weekend… idem for the number of version
PS IF YOU FIND A WAY TO SOLVE call issue, PLEASE share it…

I bought Simcard + microphone harness from Aliexpress. They stated that my voice sounded good when calling directly from HU with a sim card. They also stated that their own voice echoed. I think in this case there may be a problem with the Bluetooth interface. I ordered an external microphone. I'm going to try how the sound will be with the external microphone. I installed a macrodroid drawer on the HU device for speed dialing, and I was satisfied as a quick search and a mapped screen split. I'll be glad when the volume down problem is solved.
By the way, does anyone know the steps to add eSim?

I haven't solved the problem but I have opened it up and discovered that it may be TS10 firmware compatible. I've also noticed that these boards are standardized so you may be able to just buy a standalone board like this one that is compatible with TS-10 which is a much more mature system

Edit: I confirmed that they are compatible. I'm just going to the TS-10. Wash my hands of this problem.

I will try if I have enough time…
However, to be clear. I am pretty sure the problem is not on the Bluetooth. I have tried to runs an app like WhatsApp directly on the unit. The unit was connected by wifi on the house. And I observed exactly the same delay… In addition, to complete the vendor send me an application to update some parameter in the Bluetooth configuration (gocsdk) it doesn’t change anything n delay…

I installed this link from the manufacturer but I would not recommend. It is set to the wrong display resolution (1280 by 480) and I cant change it because it I cant press half the settings screen as it is out of view. Goin to try the other software next. Also this one from the manufacture seems to state it is android 12 and I am 90% sure it is not. very sketchy.
Edit: Do not do any of these installations without a backup. Otherwise you may mess up your machine. You need to back up your APKs and all your settings they're going to be in the factory settings I believe I'm going to make an instructional once I confirmed this worked

So you succed to install? And delay on call is the fixed?
For information during the six months of exchange with vendor, he maid me several update. on time he send a new system update like this one... And result for delay in call was the same...
I am not sure to understand if you avec succed to install? If you wan't I can share the latest version that he send me before send me back a new main board...

I did eventually get the install to work and it helped but its caused a bunch of other problems with audio quality and strangely enough google maps wont open. The delay went from 1-2 seconds to about .5 of a second call delay :/ these ts-18s are just ts-10s with a bunch of cost savings. Just trash, I am jumping ship and you should too. Just buy a ts-10 from the link I gave you and it will be a drop in replacement for the ts-18 you have. Also yeah post the update maybe someone else will find use for it The big issue with the install and what took me so long was that the dpi was set to 240 when it needed to be set to 140. This made the whole experience a pain because half of the options in the settings menu where unreachable. I had to enable engineering mode and go to the built in abd app (you can connect your laptop and do this remotely as well) and type in "adb shell wm density 140". here is a Link to get you started.

If ur Microphone dont work well in TS18 u should:
Turn Off Listening in Voice Assistent Google.
This work for me and now i can Call with no problem
