Need help enabling AA - Android Head-Units

Hello, I have a Chinese head unit, and when I connect to it using Bluetooth my Android auto app says that wireless AA is available Here but when I tap on it nothing happens.
I've connected my phone to it using the USB port and my phone does get picked up by the unit. I installed HUR and it tells me my system can support native AA but it won't work no matter what I try.
There's no app called android auto on my head unit if it matters, would I need to install something? HUR works fineish but if the native is supported I would rather use that.
System specs:
First
Second
Third
Sorry for the formatting I'm on mobile.

New apple CarPlay usb dongle for android headhunts and tablets.

The above video is my review, i have it working great with my ownice c200 headunit. the usb seems to register that to the iPhone that it is a CarPlay device. the CarPlay UI apparently is stored and sent from the iPhone its self to the usb dongle and then sent to the android app. the app then sends touch and audio commands back to the usb dongle and then to the iPhone.
i can send photos of the internals of the device to any one who wants and a link to the APK.
MOD EDIT: removed email address and mention of selling head units. XDA is not a place to make money!
great !!!

New firmware update allowing the box application to work in the background.

First Step: updating the CAR PLAY USB DONGLE
Plug in the car play usb dongle on the PC, copy the "update.bin" file under the root of the dongle, no extra file folder and no any operation, just wait for 5 minutes, it will be quit automatically after updating, then pull off the USB dongle.
Second Step: Uninstall the old version ZBOX softare from the car audio, then intall the new one, then it will be ok to work.(With the new APK in the attachment and follow the manual)

The issue you are experiencing with the zbox having 'stage-fright' has to do with the power requirements of the zbox device. Some USB bus' don't provide enough power (or borderline) so functionality is intermittent. If you use a powered USB hub, that provides additional power to the USB ports, you'll have almost no issues.
I have connected a y USB adapter.
Has anyone tried one of these on a PX3 RK3166 head unit?
I have one but cant get it to work.
It connects to the apk but wont connect to the iphone.
Tried the update to firmware and apk, still no joy.
Not sure if i have a faulty dongle or it's a compatibility issue with these head units.
Alibaba seller suggested not enough power on head units usb?
I have the same problem with one of these.....
I have tried three android units now and I still can’t get them to work....
Android 4.4 it says its connect but the iPhone just shows as not found....
The other two are both 6.0.1 and the zbox just shows connecting all the time!
If any one has any help it would greatfully be received..
Or for that matter any software updates.....
Mine is showing apk: 2.1.0
Zbox versions: 2.1.0
Many thanks and kind regards
Mine works and I have a px3. I updated the device and installed the latest zbox app before I tried it. I would try swapping out cords and making sure they are certified by Apple. The only issue I have with mine is that it cannot be controlled from the steering wheel.

I use a second usb-plug and a y-cable to provide sufficient power to the device.
What do you guys do with regards to phone calls? My phone is obviously paired to the head unit via Bluetooth, so whenever I get a Call, it jumps out of CarPlay/zbox to the Stock phone interface, however the phone still transmits the audio to carplay and not via Bluetooth by default.
How any of you solved that problem?
If you are using CarPlay why do you have Bluetooth paired? Every car I've been in with CarPlay diconnects the phone from Bluetooth.

I have an Eonon GA7157 running a:
CPU: Allwinner R16 1.6GHz Cortex A7 Quad-Core
RAM: SAMSUNG DDR3, 1GB
Storage: 16GB
I have tried App and Firmware 2.x and 3.x. No joy. All I get is "Connecting" when the usb dongle and app is started. It never gets passed this "Connecting..." stage. USB devices like keyboards, mice, USB Flash drives, and even video camera work fine on this headunit. The Zbox Z1 and an OTA tuner don't work for some reason.
I did some more troubleshooting and found out the following: The dongle works perfectly on my PC running Remix. I also tried it on Samsung Table A; on this one, same symptom as the head unit, so I tried using an OTG cable and what do you know, it worked perfectly.
Therefore, I have 2 possible explanations: The headhunt's USB cable needs to be hardwire as OTG or Eonon somehow has decided to block certain type of USB devices that request data asynchronously. Why? I have not clue... I wish I could disable this flag in the OS, but I have not clue where it can be done. My headunit is rooted, so it should be possible in theory.
Hello, could you post pictures of the internals? I'm very curious what's inside the lil dongle. Also: do you still have some of the dongles? haha

This guy has done a few videos on the unit.
Hey, can someone help me to find the Zbox Z APK 3.0 to Download in English?

Transfer files by USB between Android smartphone and Android head unit.

Hi.
How can I transfer files between my smartphone and my Android Head Unit?
I thought the by USB would be the best choice, but I connected my smartphone by USB and I'm not able to see the smartphone files in the Android Head Unit.
My Android head unit is a Asottu CXKLL179060 that is a Allwinner T8 Otca core.
Thanks
I been trying to figure this out today but no luck as yet, seems like it should be a simple thing to do, but tried various file managers and neither devices seem to be able to find the others storage.

Yes, I don't know how to enable the Android Head Unit to recognize the smartphone by USB, or another method, and be able to access the files of the smartphone.
I can't download files from my house's wifi to the Android Head Unit. The Android Head Unit recognize my house's wifi but indicates a low reception. The wifi receiver of the Android Head Unit probably have a low reception or, as the wifi receiver of the Android Head Unit is inside the car panel , it probably decrease the Android Head Unit wifi reception.
Got it working today by usb, used this Paragon ExFAT NTFS USB Android, apk in playstore.

Yeah that's it, moved some albums earlier and was very quick, only problem is now that app starts every time the stereo turns on, think it's trying to read my 4g dongle though. May be ok for you.

Does It need to buy the app to it works? I installed the free version and it's not working. I installed the app in the Android Head Unit, connected the smartphone in the Android Head Unit and in the Paragon app shows the message "Connect USB to the Device"
No need to buy it, should be able to select file manger from symbol of folder down bottom right. When you get to screen with a filing cabinet on it, go to symbol in top right with 3 horizontal lines on it. This should allow you to scroll down and see your device.

Trouble with CarPlay Dongle on Android Head Unit

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with my android head unit (Android 9, Quad-Core, 2GB RAM, MTCE_GS_V3.30_1) Hal9k mod installed.
I used a Carlinkit CPC200-Autokit PRO wireless Carplay dongle without any problems. One day my iPhone X suddenly stopped connecting to the dongle with the message: Unsupported accessory. I contacted the reseller, but he told me that everything should work fine and there cant be any problem. Then I contacted Carlinkit, they told me the same.
I was really confused about that so I tried to update the dongle with a USB stick result: The dongle is detected by AutoKit app, AutoKit shows: "connecting" the green wheel spinns and the app crashes
So if anyone knows how to fix this please let me know :fingers-crossed:.
But there is a second problem... I bought a new Carplay Dongle Model CPC200-Auto-CA. The problem with this dongle is, its using the AutoPlayBox APK. If you plug in the dongle, the blue LED lights up for a few seconds and thats basicly all. The AutoPlayBox app does not detect the dongle, it only shows: please insert Box into USB port. If you plug in an iPhone it starts charging but in the AutoPlayBox app nothing happens. The pheriphals check in AutoPlayBox app shows that everything is fine, mic, usb etc. everything is detected.
I know this all may sound a bit strange but I hope somebody sends me help. I'm an absolutely beginner in this stuff. If you have any questions please let me know.
Thanks for your help, greetings from germany!
@techjulius
Could it be possible that the sudden stop could be related to any IOS update?
What could help:
Make a factory reset at the head unit and try again. If that does not help... no clue.
The CPC200 needs to get an activated USB-Debugging in developer options. Did you try that?

Thanks for your reply.
There was an iOS and dongle update few days before, after updating everything worked quite well until day X.
I've tried 2 factory resets, but nothing changed. USB-Debugging was enabled all the time.

Then someone else needs to jump in, because my skills about IOS and CarPlay are not that good to give further hints.
I had this happen to me the other day. A reboot on my iPhone fixed the connection issue.
Side note I'm on iOS 14
Super late, but i have the same issue and i can't find a solution anywhere. Did u end up fixing it?

You mean open the head unit and connect the USB cable to a different USB port on the back of the unit? Or you mean something else? Thanks

No, my device (OKNAVI TS10 6+128) and probably every other are supplied with 2 USB cables: 6 and 4 pin. He suggests you to check the one that has 6pin connector plugged to the device.
I also got a problem with my head unit. The device can't see anything plugged to the USB port after it wakes up. What helps in this case is a restart of the device. Everything works until at some point of wake up and sleep cycle it hangs up. Of course I run on the newest firmware and MCU drivers.
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 ?
hello, I have a window radio vi QT10 4 / 32gb I reset it to the factory settings because the fm radio icon disappeared and I could not find it, now I do not have the google play icon and when I downloaded the google play apk and I want to install it, it pops up that my radio does not support it please contact the manufacturer in the program, but in China they have a new year and holidays, so there is no one to help me. in deeper settings it is forced to stop and close the application as if it was installed but hidden somewhere, please help I bought the radio a week ago but I have no idea how to fix it, does anyone have a link to the new software for this radio and android 11, can it work? MCU update is looking all the time and nothing is happening so I don't know how to update it either.
did anyone come up with the solution? The same happens to me
