I have a Eonon Headunit with Android 10.1 8227L, but it looks like you can only pair it with a phone and OBDII? Is there a way to get the native/stock android bluetooth pairing menu? I have a few bluetooth devices in the car that I want to connect to but it doesn't have a search function for these devices. I am assuming the Eonon rom locks it out? Or does it not have the hardware to do it?

Has anyone used something like the Delphi Connect or Zubie with their head unit?
I just picked up one of the new Lollipop units from Joying and would rather not connect it with my phone. I am looking at these OBD units vs a USB hotspot. While I would give up bluetooth for OBD, I could run the Delphi or Zubie app on the head unit itself and see the diagnostic codes, etc.
Any experiences or thoughts? Reasons to go with one over the other?
Thanks!
I installed my new head unit today and picked up a Zubie from Best Buy. It is a hotspot that plugs into the OBD port.
It works like a champ too.
My head unit connects via WiFi and I have an always-on connection regardless of my phone being in the car or paired. This saves my phone battery when streaming music and running Waze (which is pretty much the entire time I am in the car).
I haven't even paired my phone to the head unit and am not sure that I will.
I can't run Torque since the OBD port is now in user, but steering wheel controls seem to work fine via CANBUS, so hopefully it won't be a problem.

New to forum, as well as new to the Android, Android Auto head units
I am looking for a better understanding of what's needed exactly to display the 'Torque Pro' app directly to a 'Head' unit without passing through a third device
I have the scanner port device
I have the 'Torque Pro' app running on the s9+ mobile device
Goal is to have the app running on a head unit minus the s9+
I have been reading, researching
Down to a Sony Android Auto unit
Or
Joying head unit that uses a sim card?
I am also concerned about quality of music playback, radio and FLAC files
Many thanks for your thoughts
To have OBD directly your only option is an Android based unit like the Joying. Android Auto just mirrors certain apps from your phone.
You'll need an OBD2 dongle. Just install Torque on the head unit and link it with the dongle same as you would with an Android phone.

Would this obd2 dongle be a USB, Bluetooth or WiFi connection?
I'd still want to be able to connect to phone to the head unit for calls etc. But for the torque Pro to work without the phone.

Yes, Bluetooth connection from head unit to OBD II adapter. You can have multiple Bluetooth connections so your Anroid head unit will be connected to your phone for voice and media and the OBD II adapter for data.
Hello,
Does anyone have a good solution how to make Bluetooth LED strips (example the Govee LED strip) work with the Dasaita PX6 Android 10 Head Unit (or any other comparable HU).
Bluetooth works with my phone and my OBD2 device, but the head unit does not find the LED strips.
I'm really trying to find a solution here - so please reply if you have a solution. I am also wondering if head unit developers read the issues we post here and try to fix them?
Thanks!
Hey everyone,
I was wondering if anyone was successful with setting up an external bluetooth dongle for the Dasaita PX6 MAX10 (the hardware seems to be the same with VIVID10, MAX11, VIVID11).
My Bluetooth built-in hardware seems to be WQ_RF210 but it's limited and can connect to only phones and OBD devices, as far as I tested.
I would like to extend the BT capabilities to operate LED strips and other non-phone devices.
Anyone tried something and could share experiences?
Thanks!
The solution is to buy a UIS7862 FYT type unit as discussed in the FYT forum.
MTCD platform devices bluetooth is severely cropped and cannot be fixed.
I have the above head unit fitted and working fine in my car but I have an engine management device that contains a bluetooth low energy module in it. I would like to connect to this module via the provided app however it appears my head unit does not see or connect to BLE devices.
Does anybody know of a USB type device that I can connect to the head unit which will provide the ability to connect to BLE devices?
I'm using standard Dasaita android 10 and 3.69C.
Thanks
I have a similar issue. I have an Axxess signal processor which you make adjustments to it through Bluetooth. The processor connects to my phone but won't even be seen by my head unit (Dasaita max10). These head units only seem to recognize a phone or (select) obd dongles. It's pretty basic. I have been looking for ways to expand this, but so far unsuccessful.
So, if in this forum some people say it is not possible to connect any device via Bluetooth except for the phone because it is soldered to the HU or whatever, why my previous head unit with the same wires and android version could do it?
I ordered a boison px6 and test it but I had to return it for some size reasons. I got to make it work with an OBDII and Bluetooth multimedia remote control with NO ISSUES, directly from the Bluetooth settings.
So, now reading the posts in this forum, it seems my new Joyix head unit, which seems to be almost the same unit except for the size, it cannot connect to any device via Bluetooth... how is that possible?
By the way, the seller doesn't agree.
I'm not sure where you got that information, but it is not entirely true. The bluetooth is capable of connecting not only phones, and phone audio but elm327 based obd2 adapters as well. All the units I have had, have this capacity.

An example from this forum:
Can a Bluetooth Device (not smartphone, not OBD) works with Android PX5/PX6 device?
I have a Dasaita PX6, with Hal9k ROM and RF210 bluetooth module. I can only pair smartphones and OBD devices. I need to pair a bluetooth lights module to control ambient lights but BT can't recognize it (my phones can do it). I read something...

Well I have bought a separate Bluetooth wifi dongle and I will write here if I got to pair both the OBDII and the Bluetooth multimedia button on the wheel.
