One of two Joying PX5 USB ports dead. Help? - Android Head-Units

I was playing music from a stick on one of the two USB ports on my Joying PX5 today. Left ort when display is facing me, if it matters. Suddenly unit started rebooting, tried to reboot a few times. After it finally decided to turn on, the unit did not see anything in that USB port. Not the stick with music, not my USB modem. Since the modem doesn't even show the power light, I assume that either USB port/cable is completely dead or it's internally turned off somehow.
I checked and both stick with music and the modem stick worked fine in the other USB port.
Help, please! What do I check if anything, hoping that this is not a hardware problem?

Anyone with any ideas?

Just buy USB extender i.e. https://images.app.goo.gl/gJ52W2oUxaQKp4jp7

I can buy a USB splitter. But will Joying simultaneously see two USB sticks with music or a music stick and a USB modem stick?

Replace Head Unit

Been reading tons of threads about replacing my stock head unit with a Nexus 7.
Couple of things I can't seem to figure out.
1. I have a 2003 Toyota sequoia with JBL. I have a wiring harness adapter that will connect to the sound system (I think there is an existing stock amp). I want to use the micro USB to charge and for audio, and I ordered the splitter cable for that. Can I connect that directly to my existing amp or do I need a USB DAC?
2. My plan is to mount the Nexus in the dash, so that it is not removeable. Should I run a USB connection through a hub for doing updates?
3. Is it better to use a 2012 or 2013 model?
I plan to use it for music, GPS (probably waze), and as BT connection for my phone.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
Someone suggested this:
"you normally can't connect a USB DAC to the tablet and charge the tablet at the same time through the same microUSB port"
Does that sound right?

Well, that somebody was wrong. My setup, thanks to Timur, charges my N7 and powers the DAC no problem.
I also would like to know. I read that someone used blisspop along with an additional kernel, but I cannot seem to find any install files for blisspop nexus 7 grouper.

Purchased Android 5.1 2GB RAM HU - Can't get USB Hub to work.

Purchased this HU:
https://www.aliexpress.com/store/pro...747116176.html
So far it works great. I really like it and its a huge improvement over my first 4.4.4 HU as I can use the ENTIRE 16 GB for storage.
Unfortunately even still I am running into one problem. I cannot get any USB HUB I plug into it to become detected. If I plug a USB Flash Drive DIRECTLY into the USB plug of the Head Unit, it becomes detected and works right away. If I plug it in behind ANY USB Hub, the unit does not see the flash drive. It also does not see the USB HUB. What could be going wrong and is there anything I can do to fix it? My older Android 4.4 unit could use the same USB HUB right before I de-installed it so I know the HUB's are still functional.
maybe not enough power. Can you try a powered hub?
I'll try this, Something weird happens. When I turn the car off and reboot the radio by turning the car back on, the USB hub will be seen as long as it was plugged in when I turned the car off. If not, it wont work. Also it will only see 1 flash drive instead of 2. What gives?

That really sounds like a power supply issue. If the head unit can find the hub *ever*, then it means it has the needed driver for it.

So I tested by powering my USB Hub to an AC Outlet charged by an wall in my garage with an extension cable and made sure the USB Hub lit up before I turned my car / stereo on so I verified it was receiving power but unfortunately this did not help at all. It made no difference.
What seems to be happening more specifically now is this.
When I plug USB Flash Drives behind a USB HUB, only ONE Flash Drive gets detected, the rest do not. And by that I cannot even mount them as they are not listed in storage, only USB 1. Now USB 1 does not ever take a single specific flash drive, it is random. Sometimes when I crank it, it will be one flash drive, other times it will take another flash drive, but always listed as USB 1. Other devices such as my mouse and keyboard behind my USB Hub are working no issues.
What else could be the problem?

Well that's not a driver issue at all. That's an issue with the way Android (read: chinese butchered Android) picks and mounts a USB disk. They are actually *ALL* working, from a driver point of view.

I see. So it's not mounting properly. Is there anything I can do about this? I would like to be able to use more than 1 USB storage device at a time.

Kenwood car reciver does not recognize HTC 10 via USB

Hello!
I recently installed a Kenwood KDC-BT768HD in my vehicle. This unit has USB 2.0 ports and is supposed to support Andoird Audio. When I plug my (or my wife's) HTC 10 into the Kenwood's USB ports, with the HTC USB cable, the HTC 10 will charge, but the Kenwood does not recognize that anything is plugged in to it, and the HTC 10 doesn't recognize that anything has been plugged into it either. The Kenwood just says "NO DEVICE" and If I go to the USB settings in the HTC 10, everything is greyed out, so there is no way to set the USB mode. The HTC 10 works fine when I plug it into my PC or USB OTG cable, and the Kenwood recognizes when other things are plugged into its USB ports. Bluetooth seems to work fine. I am running stock Andorid 7.0 with the latest updates from Verizon.
I had USB debugging on, but turning it off didn't fix the problem. I also went through all the USB modes in the Developler options, and turned off Developer options altogether, but neither of those fixed the problem. I tried a different third-party cable that works with my PC, but it doesn't work either.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Do any other phones work with this method?
I remember my brothers Civic came with USB for audio, and you could let in a USB stick for example, but it would only charge the device when plugged in.
Could just be how the headset is?

If you google around, various posters in various forums report that it works, some even with older HTC devices. I have never tried it before, because I never had a car stereo with a USB input prior to the Kenwood I installed.

When I had similar issues as you on my old Samsung phone and Kenwood deck, the problem was the USB cable I was using. It was not recognized by either one of the devices as a data cable. Actually the cable itself was fine for other uses but just wasn't playing nice with one or both of the devices. Have you tried with the oem cable that came with the phone itself?
In my opinion, if your Kenwood supports Android Auto and yet that feature doesn't pick up your phone with Android Auto app at all, then it's a sign that the cable you're using is not up to the task.

I have a similar problem with a Pioneer and MirrorLink, it worked fine before Android 7. You should see if there is a required Kenwood app that needs to be installed, that's the only way I could get my 10 with Android 7 to be recognized by my stereo.

There is a Kenwood app that I have installed, but it says it supports Android 6...nothing about Android 7. When I run the app have have the phone plugged in, it doesn't recognize the Kenwood.
Upon plugging the Android phone into the Kenwood, the Kenwood is supposed to offer to download the app, but it doesn't, likely because it doesn't recognize that anything is plugged in.

I feel like this is a problem with 7.0, it would probably work on 6. Is there a firmware update for the stereo itself?
My phone wouldn't be recognized in my Audi either, tried everything, wife's iPhone car play worked fine.... very frustrating... So I would just use it to charge. Then one day it started working! So much better than the Audi MMI. No idea what changed to make it work. Maybe Google play services updated?

The firmware in the Kenwood was quite out of date. I updated it, but unfortunately, it did not help the problem.

If the phone is rooted you could try loading up a 6.0 ROM and see if that works, if not you may have to bug HTC and Kenwood.

I contacted Kenwood, and their response was that the phone is not on the USB compatibility list, and thus there is no guarantee that it will work. Their compatibility list is rather lame....

The only other thing you could do is hope HTC or Kenwood releases an update that fixes the problem or try an Android 6 ROM if the phone is rooted.
How is your bluetooth streaming? I have a Tmobile HTC 10 and have audio skipping issues with any of the newer Kenwood decks. It works perfectly with the BT515HD a 2014 model, I upgraded to the new KDC x701, skipping issues, switched to the top of the line KDc x998, another early 2014 model, streams perfectly but tags on apps like Pandora don't go through. Switched again to the new release of what I started with, BT518HD, bluetooth streaming skipping issues. I f you can stream perfectly, I'd like to try the firmware you are currently on.

Difference in USB ports ?

Hi All,
I have a Kunfine unit. Just another Chinese clone, with the 2 usb ports connected to the back. This is the third one I have and I wonder if there is a difference in the USB ports? My DAB + USB adapter is only working on the port with 5 connectors while the one with 4 connectors doesn,t recognize him. They are wired the same so shouldnt make a difference.
TIA

No one....? Am I the only one with this ? Cause I was thinking, it looks like one port is V2 and the other V1.1. Can this be the point ?
That is not an Android Auto HU, so you aren't likely to get much in this forum. I would go ask in the Android HU forum.

According to this product page (for a TS10-type device) only the 6-pin USB port is capable of high-speed data transfer for CarPlay, etc. It says that the 4-pin is charge-only.
I'm in the process of integrating my own Kunfine UIS7862-based (TS10) unit. The 6-pin USB pigtail works with a USB flash drive and Android Auto. The 4-pin worked with the flash drive, but not AA.
Anyone else experience this?

Can you please post the System Info of your unit? Looks like this:
Aye. This it?
Are other devices working on the 4 pin USB port? E.g. an USB stick ?

If other devices are working then it's not for charging only. I may be an issue of too less power. Could be helpful to test with an active USB hub.

Xtrons PSF7FSFA - intermittent USB connection issue

Hiya, new to forum. Done a search and couldn't find any specific help for my issue.
I have an XTRONS android 12 headunit specific shape for a MK4 Ford Mondeo. Model number is PFS7FSFA_B.
The issue I have is with the USB cable and android auto. I had issues with the stock software for screen mirroring in that it needs an Internet connection (better than a mobile hotspot I've read) to validate or something. Couldn't get that to work. Some googling found me the HUR Headunit Reloaded app.
Paid for that and downloaded it. Managed to get it all setup and working. Then after changing screen resolution in the HUR app it would no longer see that I connected my phone. It would charge but wouldnt actually connect.
I'm using the red USB cable that plugs into the headunit per the instructions.
Issue seems intermittent as yesterday I got it working after a lot of fiddling, then it stopped. Then I pulled the power to the Headunit and it got going again.
But this morning not working again.
I attempted to download the wireless app to try that but couldn't really understand which device needed the hotspot running on it as the instructions were a little ambiguous.
Phone is a pixel 7 pro.
Where should I start looking to troubleshoot this issue. OR are these units just junk in the first place?
Any help appreciated
For reference the USB cable I'm using is brand new, high quality braided cable, data transfer on other devices is fine as I checked, I also tried a couple different cables to the same avail. Leading me to think it's either a software issue in the headunit/app or an actual hardware issue?
Evening update on my USB woes, its now stopped charging the phone at all, it does register that I have plugged the cable into the phone, but when I check the "battery app" on the phone it does not show that its charging.
There were 2 USB cables in the box with this unit, a 4pin plug with a red USB socket, and a 6pin plug with a black USB socket, all the info seemed to point towards the red one labelled mirror link that I need to use. Can anyone confirm if this is correct? Do the 4/6pin plugs work differently or have different power outputs or something?
