2nd gen Joying Head Unit Thread

I do like that option!

Where are you fine folks routing the two USB cables from the back of the unit? I tucked mine behind the climate controls and down by the rocker switch panel. I was thinking there should be some sort of USB port jack I could plug them into, but that may be wishful drinking.

 

do a little reading in previous pages and youll see you can get an adapter to utilize the stock USB port on the truck

 

There are three USB input on the radio. I have the aftermarket USB cable. One end went direcy into the back of the radioc and the other plugged into the gray square plug wire leading to the OEM Toyota port in the console.

I was thinking about the otg-usb pigtail and the other USB input pigtail. I assumed the input tied to the oem Toyota USB input jack would be for the USB HD and the OTG was for Android audio. Do I have that right? I wasn't clear on what the third USB input was for. Is that just an extra input?

Has anyone found a dual port replicator for the console. I found the link to the single port replicator and the second option was to modify a dual port charger hub.

I'm hoping maybe someone found something else.

 

Is that a mid-60's Corvette convertible under the cover I see?

 

Ha! Yes, 1966 C2 327 HO. Mossport Green with green leather interior.

 

For #2. I don't see how my stock FM antenna can fit into this adapter. Can you explain how? My FM works without it fwiw.

 

Anyone have any issues with voice commands? No matter what command I give mine, it just opens chrome and tells me I am not on wifi (at least its correct about that lol)

I just want to tell it to place a call, or listen to a song on spotify, etc. Maybe even voice to text if an option.

 

Google voice commands for the hu itself will need a internet connection of some sorts. I have a sim in mine and it works fine. Your other option is to go into Android Auto or CarPlay, the voice commands should work from there for you

 

I know very little about the 'sim card' option. How does that work? Do I need to have service? or just any ole sim card in the sim card dongle will work, without service or a number? I should google that...

 

You should be able to get a data sim through your cell carrier. There is an attached/wired sim dongle to place the sim card into on the back of the joying hu. I'm on Google Fi cell service, so I was able to get a free data only sim that shares the data plan with my phone. Most carriers will have some sort of charge for the extra data sim.

 

I gave up looking for the 2 port that will connect to the radio. Just received the single today from Amazon.

 

Thank you both for your answers!

 

Even in Android auto it doesn't work.

The most important thing i want is to make phone calls really. I could do that with the stock radio no problem.

 

that is odd. I was able to use AA and voice commands no problem before I received my data sim.

 

I think I have it narrowed down to a phone issue. I am getting a new phone next week so I'll continue then.

 

That could be it. I should note that I have a Pixel Pro 6. Some older versions of android phones may not fully support AA.

 

I got it working. Now If only I could make my steering wheel audio button for mic work with the mic inside AA. lol

 

I had a weird problem yesterday. I was using Car Connect (or whatever it is called) for Android Auto for over an hour and suddenly, it just started reconnecting over and over. Ending and restarting the app did not solve the problem. The radio function and Sygic maps worked fine. Anyone else have this issue? I went somewhere later last night and used AA without any problem.

I am wondering if this is some sort of overheating problem.

 

Trying to figure out what model I need, Joying support hasn't been helpful so far. I'm pretty sure I've got a non-JBL touchscreen (2013 off-road), in that I can't find any JBL badging. Found these photos on here that well match mine (don't want to pull it without the new unit if I can help it). Anyone know if A/B/C is right for this? Haven't had luck finding an answer on here so far.

 

This ABC thing they changed to is just confusing and idk why they did that. Wasn't like that just a few months ago. I may be wrong but for a 2013 it should be JBL/w Nav. non-JBL w/Nav. And non jbl no nav. how that correlates to abc idk
