Buzz sound help - Android Head-Units

Hey guys. I have a Joying headunit and recently i was on a call via bluetooth and the other person said they can here buzz sound so I decided to do some test and started voice recording on the headunit and found out that when car parking lights or headlights are on, it records that buzz sound. Lights off and the sound is gone. Anyone would know, why?

Wen you say you were on a call with BT, can you clarify what you mean. You had a bluetooth headset on in your car connected to your HU? Your HU was getting getting phone call how? Also BT? to you phone? Or you mean your HU was BT to your phone but you were using the HU mic? If your sing BT headset that seems odd and more likely an issue with your headset. IF however you mean you were using BT to connect phone to HU(aka handsfree) and you were using the HU mic(or external mic) welcome to the chinese head unit party. The mics and the internal components are poorly shielded from engine and other electronic noise. Only thing you can really do is buy a better external mic and see if it helps.

That's typically from too much power draw in your cars electrical system. Which can also mean you have some poor grounding. It doesn't hurt to start adding ground straps all around the car. Ground battery to chassis, ground block with ground of battery, ground body with block etc. Inside the car behind the head unit, you can ground your ground wire with a T connection to somewhere metal in the dash. That will help with the buzzing sound while your lights are on and functioning.

well if he's talking about sound on a bt headset,that's something very different, but I assume he meant standard hands free.

Ever Tried it??
I Read the page and it kind of looks weird.. it says the charger does not charge the phone just the transmitter.. Also it lacks a picture of the appropriate connector..
Just wondering if anybody else has tried it?
I have ordered one, and will let you know when it arrives
I would say it does power the handset too, and the connector is Mini USB.
I have one and with the Pro it has a bug to activate the voicelabel when i play my MP3's

It seems that you could get it caught in a feeback loop if you have the FM radio set to listen to the station that you are trying to transmit on.
Wonder what it would do?...hmmm.

Well since you need headphones plugged in or the FM radio won't work, I don't think you could find out!
The Motorola T505 is really nice, though a little pricey. Its basically a bluetooth speakerphone with an FM transmitter.
So your music and calls use BT A2DP, then the T505 broadcasts that over an FM station. It'll even pick the best station and tell you to tune to it. If you're listening to music and a call comes in, it'll pause the music announce the number, and if you answer it, it'll play the call over your car speakers (like OnStar).
I've used it on a 5+ hour trip and never had to charge it, I forgot how long the battery is rated for.
In my car i´ve a CD Changer Radio without a cd changer connected. Those radios have a connection possibility (the normal connector to the changer) at the rear, where you can connect a cable which ends in a 2,5 mm (we call it "klinkenstecker", i dont know the english word). So you can buy an adapter from USB to 2,5 mm "klinke", and your TP gives great sound, in my opinion its better than the car radio ... The manufactor of the connector is called HAMA

Phone music through car stereo plus a lot more using iTech Stereo clip
I wrote a similar post a few montsh back (almost a year) in the Tilt section.
a very nifty way is getting a A2DP stereo BT headset connected to the car.
Easy as 1-2-3 if you have a car stereo with either AUX or so called iPod input (eeek). Most of these inputs are either in the center console or armrest storage compartment.
How to Step-1 (Music and Navi):
Get a cheap but good working BT headset with std. headphone out (3.5mm). I use an iTech clip 35 for example.
Get a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable, if you want to have handsfree at the same time get a LONG cable.
Connect iTech with AUX through cable
Start BT and activate A2DP profile (also known as stereo headset in some devices).
Start BT and AudioManager at phone and enjoy music through your car stereo.
Since A2DP will route ALL output to the BT device and therefore AUX input of your car you may listen to your voice navigation as well. Cool thing Tilt and Raphael will play music while Navi is active and mute music for Navi directions and come back...to music.
How to Step-2 (Music, Navi, Handsfree):
If you use a long 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable you can route the cable and iTech clip somewhere near your head (visor) or even behind the little grid MOST cars have meanwhile regardless if they are equipped with a handsfree BT option or not (take a look at the overhead light and consult with a good shop manual in most cases there is enough space).
Mount the clip and - voila - here is your handsfree.
Hint, if you permanently install the iTech clip extend the charging cable and use a cigarette lighter with USB port to charge.
why not use the cab bt to head phones. and mount the ptt funtion to turn on the app to forward the audio to your bt car system then no wires
Agreed but BTAudio and BTToggle messes with the phone, so how do you pick up a call?

I had my PURE Highway In-Car DAB Digital Radio FM Transmitter stolen which I mainly used to transmit my TP MP3's to the car radio and needed a replacement.
So I bought a FMTalk unit for use in my 3 year old Renault Laguna but it picks up alternator whine interference and crackles too.
I tried these too but had the same whine
Belkin TuneCast II
Sendai XM800 FM Transmitter
In the end I got a Griffin iTrip Auto Universal Plus which works a treat at a reasonable price although it doesn't have the phone talk function like the more pricey Motorola T505 or Parrot MK6100.
The main point was that the FMTalk unit suffers from alternator whine interference

Decent sound in car?

Hi, I have an XDA Serra, very pleased with this phone so far, the only downside is battery life, but hey I can live with that.
I am using it in the car for Sat Nav (Co Pilot 6) or in car holder for calls on the move.
Unfortunately the sound generated from the handset speaker isn't great and therefore I would like to be able to either use a car holder that amplifies the sound, or use the phone through the a car stereo.
My current stereo is pretty basic so I am looking to change it for a Bluetooth model, however I would like to know what works and which model to buy (not too expensive).
I would like to be able to 1) hear phone calls 2) run co-pilot 3) play music through the car stereo. Is it possible to do this through a BT capable Stereo? anyone got this working succesfully?
Cheers, Blair
There is another issue with the sound: as the speaker ist on the back side of the phone, most car holders will cover the speaker, so the volume goes down. Same happens when you lay it on the table.
re
dark_lobito, thanks for your response, I must admit I didn't pick up on that at first, just checked my car kit and it appears that the speaker is not fully covered, but is blocking some of the speaker.
I bought this http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=169986 which is OK for the price, and gives enough sound for a quiet room indoors. It's not amazing but is good enough for using as a portable radio/music player, but not in the car.
I have been looking and there are quite a few car stereos with BT audio streaming, as well as phone capabilities. But I need to know if it works as I want it to before splashing out.
I am hoping somebody has got these functions working with a BT Car Stereo to advise me.
Cheers, Blair
My car has an Auxilliary input, so I used the adapter that came with the phone and plugged the charger and Aux In wire to the phone. That sends the sound through the speakers of your car.
Also when you use the adapter that came with the phone it lets you use the microphone also so it works perfectly.
re
samz465, thanks for reply, but I'm not sure what u mean? The only adapter I got with the phone (O2 XDA Serra version) was a cable that allows u to connect to a 3.5 jack.
Sorry to be a pain, any pictures showing what adaptor you mean?
Cheers, Blair
Can I jump in here?
I have the HTC Pro too (Sprint)
I also have a car with an IPOD input
Well tonight I connected that to the phone's dongle via the 3.5mm input.
It sounds so good with my speakers ..BUT when I connect the USB headset that came with it, and make a phone call, they can't hear me but I can hear them just LOUD
Am I doing something wrong?

You might want to check out the Motorola T605 - Bluetooth hands-free car kit. It has stereo BT profile and an FM transmitter.
Might save you the cost and installation of a new head unit.
I've never used the T605 so I can't vouch for how good it is.
i've bought a car kit fm transmitter from ebay & made a quick review of it here. it works ok but you can only charge it if you don't use the fm transmitter & vice versa, it does not have a speaker unfortunately... does the job ok otherwise. decent/good enough sound for GPS & even for music playback
Too get better sound you should also try SRS WOW HD. It boosts volume and certainly clears up the mumble. Voices are recognizable as voices instead of monsters coming out of a can.

Does anyone have a problem to link x10 to a car hands-free and audio system?

Just got my x10 few days ago.
was trying to link it to my car via bluetooth.
I have a 09 mazda 6
the bluetooth hands free and aduio works well with my previous device, which is x1.
but for x10, it shows that link is successfull, but when i play the music, there is no sound comes out from the car's speaker at all.
so then I tried with hands free, so i make my frd to call me, the display of the car does show the number, but when i picked up the phone call, my frd's voice wont come out from the car's speaker as well, it comes out on the phone's speaker, during the main time, both car's mic and the mic in the phone, wont get my voice, my frd didnt hear anything.
my other frd, which owns a 09 arcura tsx have the exactly same problem with me.
does anyone else have the same problem with me ?

I have the same issue with my connectors in my car (mercedes benz 09 12V) hands-free and stereo syncs with the X10 but does nothing at all. I think this is in particular a bug to be fixed with the Android update. I dont really mind since I use the car´s system to bump it up.
hopefully the 2.1 will fix this, thks bro.
Connection to car audio system via auxiliary cable
Hi, I am new to the forum and this is my first post.
I tried to connect my X10 via auxiliary cable to my car's audio system and I am able to hear music through my car speakers but if I want to use this method to call someone I can hear the ringing and the other person through car speakers but they cannot hear me, even if I speak directly to the phone's mic. The only way they can hear me if I unplug the auxiliary cable from the phone. Does anyone know if there's a solution to this ? Thanks,
i have nissan 370z touring with bluetooth. works fine my with car. shows phone number and i can place calls and receive calls fine.
Hi - I've got a few bluetooth options - A retro fit bluetooth kit integrated into the car stereo for my work phone - which work with my X10 too.. A sun visor mounted blue tooth kit.. which works fine.. and a jabra bluetooth headset.. which also works fine.. !!
Sorry for that.
The bluetooth works for me very well in my car. Renault Megane '09

Hi
I connect to a Parrot 3100 with no real issues. I did get better performance when putting the latest firmware on my parrot.
The issues I DO have is from the key lock. If its on, I have many issues with phonebooks, answering calls and ending them.
cheers

To fix this you need to plug in the sony adapter that came with your phone, then plug in your auxiliary cable to that adapter then your car system. The x10 doesn't recognize mic that aren't manufactured by Sony, so they have to pass through the adapter for someone to hear you on the other end.
I am trying to use my x10 with nokia's bluetooth carkit 7w. I get an connection, then it disconnects, shows its connected on the top of the screen, but i'll be buggered if it is. I have to reboot the phone to get it to connect, and then o repeat the sequence of events. If this is a compatibilty issue, can anyone recomend a carkit?
X10 connected to Toyota Prius hands-free with no problem. But turn on X10's bluetooth before turning on your car.
Sound like most of you guys showing off your car more fine
My bluetooth have the same problem (chrysler pacifica 06) and locale suck as i have to flip on the phone for bt to turn on.
It is 50 50 chance it pair up for me
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
I have no problem receiving incoming calls via my car HU, JVC double din Touch Screen DVD HU.
I have not test on the music portion though.

[Q] Microphone Quality

Hi everyone
This isn't a typical question, but for those of you that mount your phone in the car and make calls, does the microphone pick you up fine? I will get a car in a while and I was wondering if I should get some sort of Bluetooth car kit if the microphone built in to the phone isn't up to scratch while driving.
I already have a cheap Bluetooth module that outputs all the phones sound through the cars aux input, but I don't know about the phones microphone.

Joying Intel Unit - No Bluetooth Audio from phone

Hi. I just received a brand new out the box replacement Headunit from Joying and Im fearing its brand new defective. When I pair my phone to the device and try to make a phone call, the entire call (both inbound and outbound) is completely mute. There's no audio and I cannot hear anything on the call. When I switch the audio source back to my phone even while on the call I can hear everything fine. I checked my bluetooth settings on my cell phone and they all seemed okay. Phone Audio is enabled, likewise Media. I rebooted, unpaired and re-paired both my phone and head unit. Nothing works... I cannot hear what the other party is saying.
Music and videos all work fine, however; I ALSO cannot hear the touch button input when I touch the screen like I could on my older unit. What happened?
Im worried the MCU might be bad.
Please check whether you have connected the external microphone well,you can check this blog:https://www.joyingauto.com/blog/post/how-to-test-and-check-mic-issue-for-joying-android-head-unit/

Hi, the issue isn't the microphone, I am unable to hear any audio from the call itself which means I can't hear who I am talking to. This is different from the issue where no one can hear me. I tried even with the external microphone completely disconnected and got the same results.
One thing noted from that blog is checking the speaker wire, I'm using the same radio harness as I was using on my older defective 6021 motherboard and the one before that. I compared the coloring on the wiring harness and pinouts on the connector and they look exactly the same so I don't believe its a speaker wire issue either. When I play regular my front speakers work fine.
I am noticing that the equilizer seems to think my front right speakers are my front left and it thinks my front left speakers are my front right. The back speakers seem to be configured properly (when I select back audio only plays out the back, when I go front right audio plays out the front left, and vice versa.) I checked the wiring and the front right and properly connected to the front right wires, as are the front left and so forth... I went and redid the entire radio harness (which worked fine for 2 Joying Sofia Intel units before this one.) and it did not help. Also still no bluetooth phone calls. bluetooth AUDIO works fine but when I make a bluetooth phone call, it is COMPLETELY mute on both ends. I can't hear them and they can't hear me, regardless if the mic is connected or not.

I took the car to work today and had two additional people test their phones on the unit but we replicated the same issue. One was an iPhone and the other was an Android. While they can play bluetooth music through the unit, bluetooth phone is still completely mute, even with the external mic connected. We tried with the AMP setting configured to "IN" as well but it made no difference. I am still not getting any audio from my phone to the stereo.
I am certain all the wiring is correct. I am using a METRA adapter to my car stereo which splices into the Joying unit and it has worked fine on all previous Joying units. The Metra Harness follows the same universal stereo wiring code (white and white black / grey and grey black are front speakers) and connects to my car's factory harness. Also in the equilizer settings, although left and right audio is incorrect, front and rear audio is functioning properly. If I select only rear, only rear speakers play and if I select only front.. only front speakers play.
Did you fix it?
