All the info is in the "about device" menu. It will list your screen size, and current versions

then I gotta figure this out

 

Yep, so after you have updated just download that file and run it on the headunit.

 

I should just be able to download file extrac to flash drive and install

 

I guessed right lol cool

 

You can do it.
Interested.. Mine has the same kernel date.
I'll probably email them to find out which one to use.

 

So just finished update oh yeah baby wireless Android auto. I'm confused cause I did the update and wireless Android worked after update . So why do I need to update the other file to get wireless Android to work ?

 

Probably already installed. Look under system application

 

Funny thing is it wouldn't work on the previous update

 

Here are the instructions I received from Joying, but keep in mind i just bought my headunit, so its the Android 10 version.

Here is the headunit i just purchased on Amazon

Upgrade steps:
1. Download and unzip this file from your computer
2. Copy all files in the unzipped folder to your USB drive, please format your USB drive on your computer first
3. Insert the USB drive to the unit
4. It will update automatically
5. Re-select back to the previous canbus protocol after the upgrade.

 

My device has MIPI 1280x720 panel(detachable screen) and this is the link to update to Wireless AA.
The update went well and AA is working.
The annoying part is to reinstall apps and update some configuration settings.

But wired AA sounds better...

 

Yeah I noticed my volume isn't as loud as it used to be on music . But google assistant is awfully loud . Go figure

 

There is a adjustment for the different sound sources in the headunit. I dont remember where, but its in there.

 

Yeah I adjusted some of them but I'll have to dig around on there and find it again crank em all up see what happens

 

I remember someone posting about the next song buttons being flipped around when using apple CarPlay….did this issue ever get resolved?

everything works as it should except the next/previous buttons are backwards.

 

For anyone that bought the idatalink sto2 adapters to get the factory GPS to work with the head unit, could someone point me in the right direction to get the other adapter you need to get that harness to work.

I read somewhere that it was an SMA to SMB adapter? Is that correct
Not sure what one needs to be male and female?

 

if you use iDatalink

$30 acc-sat-to2 sat radio and GPS antenna adaptors for TO2 vehicles

acc-sat-to2, buy this.

 

When I set this up, it prompted me to set a screen to auto start. I set up Google Maps. Who knows how to reset that, or turn that off?

I'm strictly using CarPlay.

 

Question. Did any of you connect add a fuse to the back of the unit? Is it a good idea?
Thanks.

 

No I didn't
