Difference in USB ports ? - Android Head-Units

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 ?

Yes they are. Unfortunately I have never seen your device before.

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.

Micro-USB Extention Cable + Slimport = Success!

If you're wondering if it's possible to use a Micro-USB extension cable with a Slimport adapter the answer is yes! I have successfully used one to connect my Nexus 4 to a Slimport SP1002 adapter, then connect that via HDMI to my Pioneer SPH-DA100 car stereo.The bulky adapter with its myriad of connections and super short cable to connect to my phone is now hidden under the center console.
I can't post links yet, to find the cable I used Google "angledcables" micro-b usb extension
Just curious, why do you use MyDP to connect to your car's headunit? movies for the kids? GPS?

GPS, and as a workaround for the poor audio output of the Nexus 4. Although the ability to watch Netflix while waiting in the car is nice, too.

hmmm... this didnt work for me with
Black 3 Foot USB 2.0 USB Micro B Male 5 Pin to USB Micro B Female 5 Pin Cable
by YCS basics
from amazon
but I'll order the other one and try it because it would be so much better if i could extend the slimport rather than hang that whole thing from my phone
it works!!!!!!
The cable from amazon did not work but the cable from angledcables.com worked! Even though the envelope says usbfirewire.com, they have different models of micro usb cables
I got the 12 inch version of :
Item #: RR-MCB-EXT-XXG5
and i can CONFIRM it is WORKING for AppRadio 3 as an extension between the phone and Slimport adapter.
I suppose it's a hit or miss depending on if the company wired the 4th pin through (Which is usually used for OTG) or not. Slimport uses all 5 pins.

After a few days I had to disconnect the extension because it makes things way too unstable. The slightest bump stops the video signal. You have to totally remove it and plug it back in before it works again. I might try a few things to fasten the connectors together but I might just go without it.

Sorry to revive an old thread. Did you get this sorted out?
I'm in same situation. I just got Pioneer AVH-x8500BHS and SlimPort adapter to mirror from my N5 to the x8500 HU.
But the Slimport is in my glovebox, I want to move it to my center console for easier access and better GPS signal.
I'm afraid all this plugging/unplugging of the SlimPort will eventually wear out the cable or the N5 port.
Anyone ever figure out a way to get the extension to work without it cutting in and out all the time?

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.

Checking if the USB port is working properly

I've got a Seek Thermal CompactXR infra-red camera that I bought recently and since it has a micro-usb connector and the 6P has a usb-c connector it needs an adaptor. Got the recommended one by Seek - VicTsing - but it does not work, the camera will no connect to the phone.
The camera works fine, I've used it on the girlfriend's phone.
I've also got a small usb inspection camera that runs off a micro-usb port on a mobile phone, but it too doesn't work on my 6P.
So I'm beginning to think that something isn't working properly with the usb port on my phone, not sure if it's a physical problem or something in the soft/firmware set-up that I need to click or unclick, etc.
Any ideas on how I can fully check that the usb port is working on the phone please?
Anyone?
Make sure you use a compatible USB-C to micro USB adapter. Not all of them will work properly. I also remember something about Google didn't want adapters to work, that's why you'll need a cable I think. What kind of adapter are you using?
As mentioned in my post, it's a VicTsing and is recommended by Seek. It's a USB-C to Micro USB converter.

6pin USB modificatiin

I recently installed a 8227L unit. on the back there is one 4pin USB port and one 6pin USB port.
According to the pin out here
drive.google.com/file/d/12bPcFU3NChV-zyOzuW3IhEot1Td3Rl8Y/view?usp=drivesdk
The six pin USB provides two separate data lines and shared the power source.
Has anyone made modifications to the cable that the kit provides (a single USB port like the one in the following image) and make it support 2-USB connection on one cable?
drive.google.com/file/d/12q22FjffQS9q6GcjRyC0YTLXAJbvZcH1/view?usp=drivesdk
I am hoping to learn that this modification allows the two USB devices, connected to the head unit can work at the same time.
My plan is to hook up both the front and rear USB dashcams to this USB port, and leave the other USB port ( the one with the four pin cable ) for DAB+ dongle or a USB storage.
Did you try this? Did it work?
It looks like this kind of cable is available from AliExpress:
https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/H0461b1f84cb646aeb177edf6a8fa9069D.jpg
I never seem to be able to download anything from Google drive, it always wants me to create an account. It shows 'page not found' for that one anyway. I'd be interested in seeing that pinout, the AliExpress picture is not on the correct angle to see which wires go where and the URL doesn't link to the actual sale to see if there are any other pictures there.
Could you post the pinout as a picture here in the forum?

One of two Joying PX5 USB ports dead. Help?

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?
