Can anyone point our where WIFI antenna is (is it integrated with 4G cellular?) and where internal SIMM card (not the one on a cable) could be?
I thought WiFi was integrated with the 4G antenna, too.
Turns out the two stubby (in my case, white) wires poking out of the RCA backup camera harness are external WiFi and Bluetooth antennas. Go figure.
Forgive my ignorance - Topway is the manufacturer and they all run the same firmware?

According to the manual I have, the antennas are actually what Patman27 is saying - "two stubby (in my case, white) wires poking out of the RCA backup camera harness are external WiFi and Bluetooth antennas".
Here is how this looks in in my manual.
I was wondering if there is a way to improve the abovementioned antennas?

I believe so. Topway makes the MCU, and wrote & supports the "factory" ROM with the magic Bluetooth, Radio, etc. apps that play nice with it. It may then be up to the reseller to configure which features are turned on or off on the unit.
That's the impression I have from scouring XDA forums.

Maybe? I'm not versed in WiFi antenna design, so I don't think it's as simple as soldering on an arbitrarily long wire.
If you find something will you share it here? I'm curious, myself.
To add antenna it should be as easy as adding pigtail with RP-SMA or SMA (depending on the antenna you want to attach) to the connector (not the current 'antenna' wire). Problem is that there will be signal leakage at the connector since it's not shielded and some of the power will be lost due to impedance mismatch. Connect to both, ground and wifi signal of course. Without being able to limit transmit power this modification can cause a lot of unwanted interference - so figuring how to control tx power should be the first step, IMO.
On different topic, all touch controls (including side 'buttons' and screen) on my radio stopped responding recently, but returned after pressing reset through reset hole - has anyone experienced that? Steering wheel buttons were working and I could control the apps (that seemed to work fine) through them. I wonder how to troubleshoot this w/o touch access?
Hi, I had to restore the factory settings, after that all the applications on navigation are gone. I can't even install anything because the play store app is gone too. What now? How should I install play store app now ?

It will keep ALL the original functions of your car. thats how these units work.
You dont need adapters or anything, ive installed one of them in a F15 X5. And it works great tbh. easy to use.
When installing it can be a tight fit with the cables. And remember to move the fiber optic cables to the new quad lock connector, and you will be good to go

Sorry, I was blind ... you are right
BTW, do you know if it's working with stock GPS antenna from my car ? ... as I see it they provide a GPS antenna also
EDIT :
I still have 2 years of BMW Premium warranty, do you think by installing this unit I'll loses the warranty ? Thanks !
The original BMW radio has the stock gps antenna, you can put it on the new unit, but then the original wont have gps signal.
Or you can just place the gps antenna with that unit, behind the screen. hidden and it will get good gps signal
I do not think its messing with warranty no.

Hey guys,
I've recently bought a 2nd hand car from a private sale, Honda Accord Euro R 2007 which came with those android headunit thing from aliexpress which I've seen few on this website.
However my problem is that when bluetooth is connected, the connection is fine (I can use the headunit to change songs etc) however there is no audio produced from the car speakers when playing through bluetooth.
I can play the radio and sound will come out fine but whenever I try to play something through bluetooth no audio is played, previous owner said when he had it installed from a specialist they couldn't get it working either so was wondering if you guys had any suggestions.
Also i don't know if this is the case for you guys as well but the volume for the radio (the only thing that makes sound currently) when it goes from 0 to 1 it's extremely loud, like it's not a subtle change from no sound to little sound, it just goes from no volume to Very loud as the first option.. is there some firmware update that can fix this problem as well as the bluetooth issue that I am having? Maybe you guys think it's the wiring at the back?
Specs for my headunit are below:
Android: YT9216C_AHD_00005_V004_20190522_HIFI
System: Android 8.1 Go
Kenel: 3.18.22
CAN Pro: Daojun-Accord7 Single-V4.7.2-connect
DDR: 1G
Flash: 16GB
CPU: A7 1.3Ghz x 4
Capacitance: 10000 uF
Display: 1024*600
MCU1: HW8227L-3.3-SW0-3.0
I've also attached photos of the above. Any suggestions or comments will be very helpful as I honestly don't know what to do and before I replace it I would like to try get it working if possible.
Thank you for your time!

If you have an external amp, the blue antenna wire is probably used to turn on the amp. This only has power when using the radio app. You must change the wire over to the red ACC wire so the amp is turned on when the car is started. I had to do this on mine today.

My 8227L unit had an antenna wire with about 10V when the radio app was running... But it also had an amp wire that could be enabled somewhere in settings (amp=on) I think it was in factory settings but I can't really remember.
TboneL's suggested fix should also work just fine.
This would be awsome if I could do that in mine. I have a Peugeot 407 SW with the 8227L Android, and no sound plays whatsoever. As I've read, I need to connect the AMP-C wire coming from the car connector to the ACC red wire. Or if it has a way to achieve this through software, would be great. I searched everywhere in the options but can't find it.
Hi guys, after googling through this forum and several others for days, Youtube videos, etc, etc I reached a point I am at a dead end guess I need some help, some weeks ago I bought this unit from Aliexpress Seller Skyshadow (yes, it seems to be a recurring problematic seller from what I gathered reading XDA posts).
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256...2z0BgWP&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa&_randl_shipto=US
Seller does not provide any support other than a PDF with the GUI features and that is it... also my Android Version that came installed was Android 11 not 12 but I digress...
I made almost everything work except making calls and running carplay, found the 3368 factory code from somewhere and managed to get into the factory settings, in some other post somebody says these head units are the same as Navifly ones and some other said they are Medeke / Mekede (sp?) but the settings and options are named totally different and I have not been able to make the reverse camera display something else besides "no signal". Already checked the camera connected at the CVBS IN jack and when going to the aux app it shows great video resolution, the canbus pink reverse wire is working properly and it triggers the reverse display but no signal is shown when connected to CAM IN or CAMERA IN jacks.
Currently the unit detects both SIMS properly and even when they are active lines, it says when trying to dial: "cannot place call in current state", I could live without 4G connectivity, but the reverse CAM is a must.
I already disconnected the pink reverse wire, put the car in reverse so the camera got voltage and it showed me a perfect picture in the AUX app, if I connect it to the yellow CAM In or CAMERA IN, then no picture at all. I cannot find a setting to enable camera for these inputs.
This is the CVBS-AHD 1280x720P camera that I am using and its working properly on any input except on reverse:
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251...29lHhNo&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa&_randl_shipto=US
I already connected another camera and same story, cut the white wire to convert the camera from CVBS to AHD and no luck... I already tried another cable, gender changers, other cameras, etc, etc, etc and the head UNIT properly displays the image on CVBS IN 1 and CVBS IN 2 jacks, but connect it to CAM IN or CAMERA IN and... "no signal", I already tried to find all the possible menus, settings, restarted the unit, etc and absolutely no luck.
I am enclosing some pictures in this post to help you identify if I am doing something wrong of if its there a workaround I can do to make reverse work with CVBS IN 1 or 2 instead of the CAM IN or CAMERA IN jacks?
Thank you very much for any insight you can provide me.
Here is working properly showing video in AUX APP CVBS IN 1:

Looking at the following unit from Aliexpress. Link to the unit on Aliexpresswhich is pretty well supported on Rennlist porsche forums Rennlist forum link
1. In real world usage, is there a huge difference between PX6 and Qualcomm 665? I know it's way more powerful but I am just using this for Waze, Spotify Android Auto, Rear view camera/DVR camera while driving.
2. This unit is more expensive than other similar units. It seems like it has overall better quality. Is it worth the 200$ premium vs other units? Other ones have the same porsche physical volume knobs and illuminated buttons etc. If you have any other units I should look at happy to have a look!
3. Are there any higher quality backup cameras or front cameras people can point me to?
4. Has anyone used Harry's lap timer with one of these devices and can comment on the functionality?
5. I am having a hard time understanding Wireless Android Auto. Do these come with Native wireless android Auto or is it even worth using?
6. Assuming I don't use android auto, each time I get into the car do I have to tether my phone to the device to have life traffic and spotify etc working? Not planning on getting a sim card for this.
7. Any comments on the call quality audio? Good working bluetooth phone calls are really important for me. Happy to pay extra for a good quality microphone if anyone has any reccomendations.
Thanks for all the help!
I don't know if you have pulled the handle on this, but let me give you my experince.
1. I have little idea. I do know that if you are running Android Auto (which it does well both wired and wireless) the major processor usage is on teh phone, not the head unit.
2. This unit seems very well made. Feels like quality to me. If you can afford a 997, you can afford $200 for the best unit.
3. The backup and fron camera are great. I fitted both. They are the drill and push fit ones.
4. No
5. Wired and wireless both work well.
6. Yes. However I got a $6 a month data sim from Tello and that works. I then run Life360 and I can track my 997 from my phone.
7. Voice quality is great even with the roof down. However I should note that I am using a Kenwood microphone that was already installed.
W.r.t Bluetooth, the unit does have an issue with connecting to some BT devices. It seems to be with low power LE devices like my Valentine1 radar detector or my OBDII transceiver. I confident this wouldn't apply to any phine, and I'd like to think this can be fixed. Seems to be an issue with several Chinese units.
One other comment. I dod something really stupid when installing and needed a part to fix it. Owtosin (Bob Luo) stepped up and got me running again. They seem to have great support.
Hi,
1st time posting to the forum. I have recently installed Junsun V1 Pro 4GB+64GB in a Mazda 2
https://www.aliexpress.com/i/4000214865985.html
Unfortunately it is not working as expected and wondered if anyone else had had similar problems.
1. I can connect to a wireless network but cannot browse the internet. (Loading google.com take 5 mins for 1/2 a page (like worse than dial up speeds on a 500mb wireless network).
2. Bluetooth is connected to my phone however I am unable to play music (it is just garbled / intermittent. (Radio / Playing music from a usb stick works fine).
3. Before of 1 and 2 and I am unable to get CarPlay to work (which is why I bought the unit).
The only wire I haven't installed is the 4G Antenna (As I don't have any use for 4G In the device).
Original the device wouldn't save settings (the time manually set would be lost etc) so I have updated the MCU which has now resolved that.
I have attached Photos.
I have changed the BT Mode and set the name etc but this has made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated as currently waiting for Junsun to reply (been two days now)

Did you connect the camera connector with a yellow RCA plug, two small blue wires, and a long pink one? These are antennas for the Bluetooth and WiFi; I hadn't installed them when I first dry fitted the unit and noticed poor Wi-Fi reception.
Picture in this post for reference.

Hi, yeah I’ve got this wire connected. However still very bad signal.
