Hi, got scammed by a seller on gumtree and got a bricked echo 2nd gen. Is there a way to remove the mlb board and replace it with a bluetooth board to turn it into a simple bluetooth speaker?

Hello Guys,
I need a little help, im trying to figure out what hardware from other models is compatible with my SPH-L720 model from sprint. After dropping my phone in water it appears that the Audio IC is faulty as I have no sound whatsoever, no ringer, no speaker, no sound coming from apps nothing. So I am thinking of having the Audio IC chip reballed first with the last resort being the replacement of said chip. I have been looking on the internet to 1. see where the audio IC is located and 2. see what other audio IC chips from other models are compatible e.g (1905, 1900, etc.) to see if I can head to my local shop and have another chip maybe off another phone into mine, I haven't been able to find any information online.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
When I use my iphone 6 to make bluetooth calls via the HU
the person on the other line hear's their own voice echoing through their phone. I've tried using 4 different mics, 2 external, the oem that came with the '06 e-class, and the internal that came with the HU--but all have the same issue. Is there a setting or software/app that can fix this? It's been driving me nuts and basically makes the bluetooth phone talk useless in the car--I've even tried putting the car speaker volume on the lowest setting and problem still persists for the person on the other line.
Thanks for your help.
p.s. my headunit is a Huifei 4.4.4 kitkat quad-core with 16gb drive and 1gb ram. I am running the OS that came with the unit.
Check out this thread for a work around.. While it is not an easy fix, it may help.. I have yet to donit myself as I also have unuseable Bluetooth going due to to low internal Mike.. I haven't even tried the external that came with the unit..but am planning on giving the fix a try as at the moment I can't use handsfree

Hi thanks for the link. Wow though, that's quite involved and I'm not electronically savvy to pull that off. Pulling the HU apart, soldering, wiring, re-wiring.
I wonder if there is a way to get bluetooth via a parrot interface but have it still interact with the HU?
Bluetooth Voice echo
I a same similar model Joying QuadCore K1366,4.4.4 kitkat, 1024*600. Many callers have told me that the ECHO is extremely sharp tone and annoying. I've look every where with no easy solution.
Got the same system as op and have obtained an updated ROM from the manufacturer which made an insignificant difference. This is a common issue with these units and don't trust myself doing the hardware fix. Tried several external mics with no "joy in" improving it.
Greetings,
I just bought the Joying 2Gb radio for my car in December which was promptly totaled by someone rear-ending me at a stop sign.
I had to buy a new car and took my joying out of the old one before i handed the wrecked car over to the insurance company.
My car is new and has a decent android auto compatible radio and don't want to rip it out to put an after market radio in.
I remember seeing a while back some boombox style wooden enclosures for double din radios and would love to put my joying in one but now I can't find the links for any of them.
I could probably make something myself but I really don't have the time and patience right now.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

So basically I've had nothing but bad luck. In short, Originally my unit would freeze and would also lose GPS signal on top of very poor internal or external microphone quality to the decree it was unusable, absolutely noone could hear me even if I shouted directly into the microphone.. I added a heatsink for the GPS issues... I then upgraded to the 6021 motherboard and still the external microphone and internal microphone are unusable. I tried using a splitter, tried using a different external microphone, tried without the external mic, nothing worked.. leaving me very frustrated but what is worse is the agent on here who I purchased the 6021 motherboard from has gone MIA and I cannot reach him.
I really want an Android Car Stereo, but I also want it to function properly.
Are the new Octocore Units any good? Do the Google Voice commands work as well as external microphone?
If not, What would happen if I use a Pico ITX Board with an I7 processor, installed Android on a solid state drive, added 8GB DDR3 RAM and paired it with a 7" display? How would I aquire touch drivers? Will I be able to get GPS to work? how about bluetooth calls and how would they be handled?
I'm interested to see what you turn up
I have parts you might be able to use, from the metal 2 DIN box and other Joying parts PM me if I can help.
Guys I need help.
I am extremely...extremely...pissed right now. I just blew off hundreds of dollars on a replacement Intel Joying unit (shipping, cost of the unit, wiring, ect) only to find it arrive DoA. It will not make bluetooth phone calls regardless of what I do. It will innitiate the call but there is absolutely no audio. All other bluetooth functions work. I checked settings on both my phone and the unit and everything seems fine. My older unit atleast was able to HEAR the call, this one cannot even do that.
I am done with Joying... This is my 4th replacement - I want to make my own unit now but I don't know where to begin. I was to use an Intel Mother Board and I want to beable to make / receive bluetooth calls but not sure what I would need to do to do that. I also want to run Android. Basically I want to build a Pico ITX minimum of Android 6 and minimum of 2GB of RAM, preferably 4GB and 16GB SD -- Not sure what to do about the screen, touch display / drivers, or audio for both music or bluetooth phone calls / microphone
If I'm forced to do Micro ITX I'd rather make a Windows Unit since I wouldn't be able to fit it where the radio goes.
Any help would be appreciated.

Try to get in contact with lbdroid (doitright). He is working on a HiKey960 unit to build it up from the ground. You can possibly find him via his repositories: https://github.com/lbdroid?tab=repositories. He had his track of work on the previous no longer existing carjoying forum. He is now active in the hikey forums.
Another option is to go for a Sony XAV-AX100/AX200. Look for superDave's posts/threads in the https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/android-auto-general subforum

I Have the following Unbranded Android Unit:
2 Din 9 Inch Android 8.0 Universal Car Radio Double Din Stereo Gps Navigation
Here is the Firmware
Android: YT9217_00002_V004_20190729
Android OS: Android 8.1 Go
XY Auto 3.0 ( 8227L)
Can Bus : 3.0 ( 8227L)
DDR: 1GB
Flash: 16G
CPU: A7 1.3ghz x4
Display: 1024*600
MCU: 3.1 ( 8227L)
Have had this unit since August 2nd. I Have had issues sense install.
Sense install the following hasnt worked
Mirror Link
Km/h instead of MPH
Internal mic doesnt work
No in call sound
First week wouldnt connect to Play Store
When the unit is first powered up volume is 15
Has a high pitch buzz when ever using the AM /FM app.
Sides buttons dont light up.
Contacted the seller, seller stated " must me a install issue " ha ha. I nicely stated, ," That isnt possible " . After a few other messages. I requested a return, needless to say i was told to keep the unit and got a full refund. Thinking to myself GREAT. Now i have a useless paperweight. Desided to use the good ole Google Search option. Desided to try my luck and message the seller again. And request the factory settings code, and how to change a few settings. Seller gave me the code ( 8888) .but told me nothing else could be changed.
Going into the Factory settings.
If i turn the buttons lights on. They stay on about 10min after i turn the vehicle off. And cant change from white. Even though in the factort settings i change the color.
Have it connecting to Play Store now
Turned down the amplifier slide, so at turn on is only 2.
Anyhow. I am trying to see if i can get maybe the settings numbers for the rest of the stuff
ALSO.... figured sense its a free unit. I would see if i can buy the extra options for these radios and solder the PCB boards in. I took the radio apart. And there are SEVERAL empty spaces. Some have port installed some do not. Any part numbers would be GREAT
EXAMPLE: DVB-T receiver
4g GSM Sim slot ( will the Sim800L work)?
Mirror link receiver?
The only 3 ribbons being used is
Bluetooth antenna
Front buttons
Lcd display
And a 2 wire ( red/black)
Once i figure out how to upload pics i will do so.
Would also like to look into changing the ROM The ROM loaded on it looks REALLY cheesy. With no wallpaper or anyway to change any settings. Even in the factory settings. Options are there but nothing is ever enabled.
Haha
You got your "refund and keep it", and you STILL message the seller for further 'product support'?
Didnt want the refund. Just want a good working unit. I did buy a second unit from the seller for my other vehicle and 1 for my son as well.
Anyone??

Once your get everything working. You should copy your rom on a flash drive and send it to me. Ill pay you for it.
These are the Units i have
I had similar problem with the mic not working so I opened it up and there is a place on the main board to connect a mic. £3 mic off ebay, cut plug off and solder straight on the board and it works perfectly now

Did this only fix the mic issue? Or did it fix the whole incall issue?
I have sense bought yet ANOTHER ($190) 9". This one has no sound at all, no mic, half the features do not work.
Also have bought 2 ( TWO) more of the ( $200e) 10" units with the 6.0 Marshmallow firmware this time. that were suppose to have 4g sim reader options. BOTH units with following issues.
Missing one of the antenna jacks.
NXP6851 sound chips removed
Bt function connect but does nothing
Brightness bar does nothing
Volume full blast when turned on ( factory amp setting at zero)
Takes 2-3 minutes to find available wifi connections
Just wish these companies would just allow us to friggin root them. Instead of just selling us locked display dummy device's!!!! It really is a crap shoot with these. Buy 5, each one with perform differently.
Spend $50 on ebay for a unit OR spend $300 on ebay for one. Same outcome. Same with Amazon, same outcome.
Unit was in the car when I bought it. Steering wheel controls were not connected either but managed to figure that out eventually
Update?
Hey any update on your unit I have 1 too and would love to root it if any one has any advice that would be great
Ok. So far. I have EVERYTHING working. Except for the mobile network. Have tried 3 activated sim cards. And no service yet.
what did you do to get the reverse camera working? I have the same unit and cannot find the reverse camera configuration. I have the camera and reverse trigger connected and verified, but the unit does nothing when going into reverse. I cannot find a mention about reversing in the configuration anywhere. Any ideas?
8888
I have the same unit, anyone knows how to switch between backlight on and off ? I know the illumination wire does that but is there a quick switch button ? Because if there isn't, it is a big face palm.
