Question about a UIS8581A unit - Android Head-Units

Hello,
i purchased a unit from china (sadly^^), everything works fine currently but i have some trouble with volume settings - the seller doesnt really respond to the questions.
I got from another thread the "HWget_info" apk and i ran this on the unit and here are some informations (i uploaded the zip file too).
Hardware: Unisoc UIS8581A
The build version is "uis8581a2h10_Automotive-userdebug 10 QP1A.190711.020 22116 test-keys"
Android SDK is 29 (so i think its android 10, not 11)
The problem with this unit is, that the sound is limited to 40% from the OS, and 40% is for music very quietly. If i switch to the original MMI (Audi A6 4G 2012 MMI3G+) and increase the volume to 20/30 and switch back to the Android OS the volume is high (>40%). I cant increase it in Android OS, because its over 40%, but if i decrease it gets quieter - if i am under 40% i can increase it until 40%.
Maybe some other had a similar problem and can help me. Maybe its possible with ADB to increase the volume limit. I already tried "booster apps" but as the name said, it just boosts the volume with poor quality.
Thank you all and best regards

Did you ever manage to resolve this? I'm hitting exactly the same problem on a system which looks to be almost the same - Mine is "uis8581a2h10_Automotive-userdebug 10 QP1A.190711.020 42220 test-keys"

Yeah, the problem was, that my chinese seller didnt know how his device works.
I needed to put the "dummy" AMI-Plug into the AMI-Interface and then switch the output under the media settings to "External AUX". But this point is only visible with the dummy plug.
After that the volume level is the same across both devices (original/chinese). The chinese seller was very unhelpful and "unfriendly". I hope this information helps you.

What unit should I replace my S160 with?

Hi guys,
I'm new to the forum and just recently went into the world of Android Head Units.
I few months ago I bought a S160 Android Head Unit (4.4.4) and even though it works ok, I find it super slow and one of my main issues is that you can't run Google Maps properly because it makes it absurdly slow (I assume its due to the fact it only has 1GB of memory)
Now I'm looking to potentially replace my S160 with another unit that is quicker. I've seen the newly released S190 but also heard about PX3, PX5 which I admit I don't fully know the difference.
Main needs for me in the main unit would be:
1. Be quick enough to be able to run google maps and other Android apps (Google play music, YT etc)
2. Improved boot time -- sleep option would be a plus
3. Have proper support/documentation to keep it running for a long time
Any units currently in the market that would be certain upgrade from the S160 and would have the requirements above?
Thanks!
I've got the s190 and love it
I tested so many sat have including Google, and not one of them is slow, at all
Also I put my unit into "auto sleep" which draws 9mA, which is hardly anything, and it powers on straight away, no waiting time or boot loading

Can you share the link from where you bought yours? I've seen multiple sites selling the S190 and different specs.
Thanks!

Needing some info and possible tips. Hizpo

I just purchased this unit and had one identical to it with android 7.1. This one has 8.1 oreo and i'm running into some missing features mainly the subwoofer control seems to be....gone. my old 7.1 has a slider in the Eq but theres none on this new 8.1 unit. I also notice the old one seemed to stay in standby mode and had quick boot up on vehicle start but the new 8.1 boots cold every time. I looked on hizpos site and didnt see any link for tech support so I'm here to see if you guys are familiar with this unit.
nothing?
I have one of these units and mine does not have subwoofer control either... I wish it did
Mine does the stand by thing though the time on the clock gets off frequently

JCAC10D02-OAA-V1.0.06R5-190830_1427 - ALPS based 8227L_demo update

Hello,
Im using 2 HUs JCAC10D02-OAA-V1.0.06R5-190830_1427 - ALPS based 8227L. demo VODOOL K9
System/display version: JCAC10D02-OAA-V1.0.06R5-190830_1427
MCU version: JCST100M01-IA03V06.17-201908281502
Identifier: 4PBEKBFYKF4SROGY
Kernel version: 3.18.79+
Upgrade update:vA.0.9e96b64
Detailed specs:
http://specdevice.com/showspec.php?id=3291-22bb-0033-c5870033c587
This HU works fine and stable
.
The key issues what Ive found are:
1) Knob version has very slow reaction of volume knob decoder. It seems that thats some incompatibility between the Rotary ENCODER and the reading SW. Probably wrong encoder or wrong SW basic driver settings. The easier way to repair is to find the right ALPS longlife ENCODER.
2) The menu itself use smaller thin control uttons/icon than the older android versions. This is not very safe during the car drive. Ive activated the ZOOM function and it helps. If any n face of main menu is possible, please share.
3) The startup LOGO is possible to change with inside patterns only.
4) The startup animation is not possible to change.
5) The GPS provided time is not kept after power cycle. I didnt found the solution. I will be happy for any FW update or help. This is very uncomfortable to tune the time information with every power cycle.
The last point is paintfull. Any experiance, share, update, info? Let me know please.

Hi! i bought i guess the same screen un march...
I have the same problems.
In android option you can change the font size and componentes size you can use it while driving.
The problem is that the RADIO font brokes...
Another issue i have is that spotify keeps deleting mysaved songs.. works fine 1 week or so then deleted... i have to redownload 3gb.
The time issue is fixed if youmake the clock works with the GPS signal, it takes 1 minutes to 5 but almost everyday its instant.
You can change startup logo.
I dont have the knob version, mine its all digital.
THe biggest problem i had its that i factory reset the screen and now i cannot use bluethoot music or listen to whatsapp audios because the bluethoot option dissapaear on ANDROID. But i still can connecto to bluethoot in the Chinese system (strange...)

PX5 (MTCE KSP 2.81e1 4/64 8 core, rav4) - problems/rom update?

Hi all!
I've encountered several problems with my unit. Hence, the most important question:
Could you help me please to point out the most up-to-date ROM I can update to? I get lost in all threads and I'm not sure which one is correct specs:
Px5, MTCE KSP 2.81e1
4gb ram, 64 bit, 8 cores cortex a53
And 8 now I guess
Rav4 2008 use version
Current compilation: px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5 170623.007 eng.hct.20180418.100720 test-keys
If cannot update, I have some sever problems, listed in priority order, maybe someone will be able to help me:
1. Litteraly yesterday some buttons stopped working. Physical buttons are fine, checked factory settings, mapping is correct and reporting. Nevertheless, screen home button, app switch, settings and probably more are not working, so the physical mapping for these is also down. Moreover, back/next buttons are working only in some apps (e.g. working in radio app, but not working in youtube). No idea what has happened...
2. Apps updates stopped working. Cannot update any app. I suppose it is somehow connected with the first problem.
3. Cannot connect to Wi-Fi network on cold car. There was somewhere thread about it, however, the temperature reason was debunked as far as I remember... but then again, if car is cold I need to restart several times and when heated enough it connects with no problem. Pretty sure it is temperature connected, as during the summer it was way faster to make it work, sometimes even without restart. Additional info: when cannot connect, the Wi-Fi switch in top bar is simply not responding, cannot toggle on.
If someone can help my I can donate a beer or something... I'm on the verge of ripping the device out of the car...

I hit the latest oreo rom from malaysk (3.5), working just fine. Resolved problem with revers camera freezing, other problems still persist (total freez from time to time, wifi on cold disabled, crashing apps from time to time - I guess it is more hardwae problem than system)

Android 10 SPRD head unit

Hi guys I'm new on here, i do apologise if i have posted on the wrong area , i have a Chinese 10.1 inch android SPRD head unit with android 10 installed. I have fallen out with the guy i bought it off as there was a lot of miss advertisements on advert which did not match when i got the unit.
However thats another story and wont get into it, what i want to know and if anyone can help me i will really appreciate it as iv tried everything and getting no where. So here are my problems :-
1, Upgrading android 10 to android 11.. there seems to be no menu that has the upgrade option, so how can i upgrade to android 11 or twelve? And How do i upgrade mcu version?
2, im having problems with GPS when car is on i loose gps signal to like half of one bar.. when car/ignition is turned off GPS comes alive and get good signal and catches satellites.. what does this happen? Whats the solution?
3, i cant change the icons on home screen, cant change/add on tool bar, no bluetooth button to turn on and off on bar on top of screen.. but blue tooth is there works fine when connecting phone and bluetooth icon shows on top bar when connected..
4, the android version seems very limited on this unit, even in developer settings there dont seem to be many adjustments options to turn on or off.. i have a meter display shows cars rom gauge and speedometer its all im KM and there is no options anywhere to change this..
5, system does not shut down when car ignition goes off, i have to manually shut it down, even tho in settings its set to shut down when acc off! Any suggestions?
I have attached pictures of GPS ignition off and one of ignition on.. also all the build software info pictures too..
Any help would be appreciated
You have an UIS7862-based FYT unit. Pretty common and there's a dedicated thread with plenty of info. Now, for your questions:
1. There is no (real) Android 11 or 12 for these units.
2. Change the location of the GPS antenna. Radio works OK when car is on?
3+4. Get a different launcher and/or custom ROM. Launchers here
5. did you change that in factory settings? If you did then you probably have an error in wiring.
Also, this post should be moved to the FYT Android Head Units area

Hi firstly thank you so much for your response and information.
1. mine has android 10 loaded.. but have seen others with android 11 and layout set up different to mine. Mine was supposed to be 11 setup but in a nutshell wasnt sold what was advertised. :/ so i would like to load android 11 on at least, i assume there is a way to do this?
2, i have changed location tried behind dash tried on top of dash tried even dangling it out the pan roof but same problem when ignition off gps signal goes up, soon as ignition on or car started signal drops to 1 satellite. Yes everything else works fine just gps problem.
3-4 i will have a look at what you have sent.
5, yes there is two options one for putting unit to sleep and other to turn off unit when ACC is off.. but it doesn't turn it off i have to manually turn it off
Any more help advice would be great thank you.. ps i will put this post on where you have said.
Thanks again

What you have seen is the ability to fake the android versions. The chinese seller use the ability quite often. They fake CPU specs, ram amount, software versions and other things... There are some apps out there, that can proof those fakes. So, there is no android 11 or 12 for your device. It's just all android 10.
