Hello everybody. I put in the 8227l chinese head unit in my prius. It is a 1 Gb 16 GB variant. I use car launcher pro. Works like a charm except a huge issue...
A number of times i woukd start the car and it will be set to a volume of 15 automatically, blasting sound on radio. I have tried using the default volume level, turning power amplifier to half in factory settings and all. It wud start working fine and then suddenly in the next start up it wud b on 15.

I am on the hunt for a solution to this problem!! I'll report back when I find one .. cuz holy effing **** does this ever piss me off also!!!
Even I had the same issue with volume and startup (Default) volume setting was missing so performed software update and now. got more functions that were missing from headunit. I have YT9216B headunit if you have same i have created a thread to update perform firmware update.
check this link:
Firmware update(8227l_demo)
Finally after searching I found firmware for this head unit(YT9216B) with less bugs . Youtube Link: Note: This update is for 1gb/16gb device and if flashed on 2gb/16 or 32gb might give errors. Firmware link...

I have solved this on my peugeot 308 with alps FF5000 8227L demo device. Problem is in memory. It deletes some settings after vehicle shudown, or when you change some settings in advanced menu (8888) all times.
My solution is when that occurs go to infotainment/ volume - and adjust the first volume media volume bar to your need (ussually 5 or 6). Adjust and other ones aswell - BT , sound media etc.
Then, when set, do not disengage your car (don't turn off ignition), let it running for 3 minutes.
Tricky part is that in some devices there is a option in infotainment main menu / common option for memory save / standby time - option that says in which time to shutdown and save after ignition off. If you could find these you must set it to 0 minutes . It worked for me. After all tht you can take ignition off, remove key wait for 3 minutes and start up again HU. It will work nicely now. You can set up options for DSP effects also in infotainment / sound - to memorize those aswell (if device have DSP option).
Below are pics to see where is what on my device, find on yours, probably is similar.
My car is Hyundai Azera 2017. I got it second hand with pre-installed android unit. Everything seems to work fine.
The previous owner didn't remove their emails for the unit. So, I did a simple factory reset.
After the factory reset. The volume level for the music from Radio, Bluetooth, CD is stuck. I can't decrease or increase it. I can see the volume level going up and down in the screen but the volume is stuck it doesn't get affected. Only muted. Other than that it's on the same level.
I checked the sound settings. Nothing. I checked Android sound settings. Nothing there.
I have no idea about cars head units. No experiences. I took it to multiple local shops, non of them knew what is the problem.
I guess it might be some important software got deleted after the reset. IDK.
Here is the model name of my unit:
and here is a video of the issue:

I hope someone please fix the issue. I really wished I hadn't done the factory reset. It ruined the experience.
Thanks in advanced.

Hello there all, I recently installed an android head unit from AliExpress, and everything went well until I first noticed that non of the buttons on the wheel worked. I saw many posts about this, but I didn't mind as I really didn't use it much. However, I got a professional to install the reversing camera that came with the head unit and try fixing the steering wheel's buttons. Because the professional attempted to fix the buttons for the steering wheel, he caused non of the buttons below the head unit to work (e.g. radio, the numbers, and turning the circle to try and change the volume). The "professional" was only able to get 2 of the buttons on the steering wheel to work (volume up and down, but you have to hold it down for like 5 seconds before it works), and when I tried to get back to him, they didn't respond. Also some reason, the volume will randomly mute every now and then (e.g. listening to music and the volume goes to 0).
I have seen many other threads about checking fuses and removing the battery for 10 minutes; however, I was wondering if there may be other fixes you guys may have that may help before attempting the battery method.
I would also like to say that I'm not overly confident working with or in cars. However, if there is a video or a simple explanation on how to do the fix, that would help make me feel confident.

edit: I have checked both 15amp and the 7.5amp and they were both fine.

Have you set the right car in the CAN-settings menu?
Clarify if your steering wheel buttons are provided via CAN or resistor related. (Car dealer)

I have set the CAN-settings to what the seller provided from AliExpress.
However, I think the steering wheel buttons are functional by resistors/resistance. (e.,g. wiring of KEY1, KEY2 and KEY GND).
I have a feeling that the "professional" may have done something to the wiring or such just to get the steering wheel buttons to work but in the process, he has made the radio control panel buttons not work anymore.
My main focus is just to fix the radio control panels (the picture below) as I use those way more than any other buttons on the steering wheel.

The radio control panel is provided by the CAN.
As no one knows what they did to the wiring, any help with it is no possible. You need to talk with the "professional" to get this fixed.
In your case about the SW buttson are connected to the resistor cales, you just need to search for the related app to set them. This is no automatism. May be you need to search for the SW in the settings. As I don´t know your system, I am not able to provide more help here.
Edit: You may test some other CAN-settings, may be they changed something and this leads to the issue with the radio buttons.

I get that, I don't really care about the SW buttons. I'm mainly just more focused on trying to figure out the radio control panel. I'm confused because the radio control panel stopped working as I had the "professional" help. Also, it's hard to talk with them again as they gave just left me on read for about 2 weeks now (from Airtasker).
I'll have another look tomorrow deeper into the CAN-settings, and will message the AliExpress seller for some help as I remember they said a problem like this might occur without the correct CAN-settings as you mentioned as well.

Did you manage to get this sorted?
Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me, i've been going mad spending hours trying to troubleshoot. I'll try to be clear and concise.
My issue: Not receiving any audio through my car speakers since a reset.
long story, short-ish: i bought my car second hand with an android headunit which has been serving me well for years. One day it decided to go in a boot loop every time i started the a car (stuck in alfa romeo badge loading screen). cutting the power or turning off didnt resolve this until i decided to hold the power button to re-boot it, i could finally get the device past its boot screen and everything seemed to work, except the damn speakers, as if they're muted (which theyre not, ive checked) i have since tried rebooting and clearing the cache and toying with other settings... it seems to be a software / setting issue, as the only way i know the speakers still "work" is; if i have the setting turned on to make a beep when a button is pushed, it beeps, and also when i open the radio app, i can hear that "click sound" that the speaker is active. almost like when you plug a powered speaker into a computer 3.5mm port or something. it just seems as if something is blocking or preventing the audio. ive tried playing music from multiple apps or the radio.. it shows playing but i cant hear anything.
the headunit seems to be rooted and a lot of familiar applications as mentioned on this forum, malasyk, mtc. poweramp, headunit. many apps have access to the sound, perhaps some overlap others?
im not sure what my headunit model is, but please see attached photo.. Its running android kit kat (4.4? from memory). ive also attached photos of each screen to show what apps are installed.
any help would be greatly appreciated or suggestions where to look within the unit.. im absolutely stumped
regards.
Hey guys!
I’ve been searching a ton for an answer on this… but can’t seem to find anything. I installed my Joying 13” head unit and wired up front speakers (will do my rears another weekend). The head unit is great, except that the volume is stuck at a high setting. I use the volume up/down buttons and the volume slider changes and the numbers go up and down, but the actual volume doesn’t change. It’s like the software isn’t talking to the hardware…
Any suggestions? I’m thinking of updating firmware in case that might work… but out of the box I would think the volume would work.
Thanks all!
@opexo any ideas
