Need help to choose android Head Unit - Android Head-Units

Hello,
I need some help with choosing proper android HU.
I have a VW Sharan '06 with original MFD headunit, 2 din unit, looks like this:

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
it have GPS navi, FM/AM radio with perfect FM receiving...
it is 2din HU, so i'm looking for unit to fit in there.
From new unit I want to have:
- 7" LCD
- rotating button for volume adjustment (not "volume up" and "volume down" buttons)
- rear view camera input (as I see, all unit have this option, I already have camera (not original) attached to original HU)
- DAB+ radio (i see I need aditional receiver to buy)
- Dashcam - to start recording avtomatic when I start car/turn headunit on, and stop recording when I turn off HU. If it possible, to store recording on SD card or USB drive, so I can take it out and look video on PC or other device.
- good radio reception with working RDS function (for classic FM analog radio)
- good sound ( already have added amp to my car an changed OEM speakers with better aftermarket speakers, only two speakers in trunk are conencted to HU, I see on forum the amp chip can be changed - no probem, I have tools and skills to do that)
- video output for aditional monitor for rear passangers (I have two 8" LCD mounted on driver an passanger headrest, so kids can watch a cartoons on longer journey while I can drive in peace :laugh: ). It is posoble to have different content on HU (navigation+playing FM radio), while on external LCD playin video (cartoons) for kids? No need for extra audio source for rear video, because kids don't have headphones.
- as I look, some of HU offers a TPMS monitoring. I would like to have this to if is possible, but is not necessary.
- steering wheel control ( is CAN bus comunication between ooem HU and SWC)
Original HU showing some data on dashoard display, eg. selected FM station, number of track played, and showing direction when using navigation. Is this also possible with android unit? HU an dashboard using CAN bus connection.
Other stuff, like GPS navigation, BT calls, Wi-Fi, USB... all unit have this.
I plan to have this car for 5 to 6 years, so I hope the HU will work so long :laugh:
I find so far:
Pumpkin HU
SKU: AE0273B
4GB RAM, Android 8, 8 core CPU, 32GB ROM they claim the startup(warm time) time is 1sec - is this true?
Joying HU
JY-UM135N2D
2GB RAM
only 2GB - is this enough, intel atom x3 processor, 32GB ROM?
SMARTECH
model H707A7T832-B
2GB RAM, 32GB ROM, Octa-core Cortex Allwinner T8, android 7.1
HIZPO
model: AD717009
2GB RAM, 16GB ROM, android 7.1, Rockchip 3188 Cortex A9 Quad core
This one have DVD drive (can be useful)
I cant paste links, becouse i'm new user, so forum don't let me to put links in thread.
It is not need to be some of this 4 unit I found, if someone have suggestion for other unit... please advice
i'm sorry for my bad english, but I hope you will undestrand what I mean

Android Head Unit choice for Skoda Octavia 2

Hi,
I would like to install an Android head unit to replace the Swing car radio in my Skoda Octavia 2.
I hesitate between 3 models:
-LJHANG PX6 7" 4/32Go is PX6 a good choice compared PX5 ?
-ZNY PX5 8" 4/32Go PX5 but 8" screen
-SilverStrong PX5 8" 4/32Go with DSP , is DSP a good value ?
Thank you for your help.
After some reading online I choosed Eunavi-WG9018S model, you can find it on AliExpress.
I'm using it for almost a month now and it's plug and play with integrated canbus which works very good - a lot of car system information displayed + steering wheel controls and OEM parking sensors.
GPS is very accurate, I left the antenna in the dashboard behind the unit and no problem with the signal.
Audio is OK, I used mostly with Spotify and the sound is OK. Being Android we have a lot of option in matter of players and equilazers.
PS: I own an Passat B7, but both your and mine are VAG cars so the wiring is similar.
Hi,
On sunday i installed on my Octavia 2 an Isudar NA02A53VW0907 (PX5 4/43GB 9'' ) on Aliexpress store (11/11 Sale).
previously i own an Ownice C200, until this summer when the unit stop working, some overheat problem..
Base only on experience of these days, it's miles better than Ownice..
I need to find some calibration for colour, it's washed..

Hello,
I join your thread for my Skoda Yeti 2015.
@ludz179: did you find a head unit?
@aurelv: I'm interested by your Eunavi-WG9018S model. Did you confirm that all is working fine (OEM reverse sensor, steering wheel controls...)?
I have some other questions:
- did you know if FastBoot is supported?
- I don't see if SDcard slot is on front?
- what do you think about the quality of the screen (reflection, brightness ...)?
- how does it fit into the dashboard? Would you have a picture?
- do you face particular problems (bug, overheating, crash, reboot)?
Did you confirm that you have not added anything in the connectivity between the original socket and the one provided with the Eunavi?
I have this socket:

Help with Chinese Android Headunit XY Auto 8227L (audio problem)

Hey guys,
I've recently bought a 2nd hand car from a private sale, Honda Accord Euro R 2007 which came with those android headunit thing from aliexpress which I've seen few on this website.
However my problem is that when bluetooth is connected, the connection is fine (I can use the headunit to change songs etc) however there is no audio produced from the car speakers when playing through bluetooth.
I can play the radio and sound will come out fine but whenever I try to play something through bluetooth no audio is played, previous owner said when he had it installed from a specialist they couldn't get it working either so was wondering if you guys had any suggestions.
Also i don't know if this is the case for you guys as well but the volume for the radio (the only thing that makes sound currently) when it goes from 0 to 1 it's extremely loud, like it's not a subtle change from no sound to little sound, it just goes from no volume to Very loud as the first option.. is there some firmware update that can fix this problem as well as the bluetooth issue that I am having? Maybe you guys think it's the wiring at the back?
Specs for my headunit are below:
Android: YT9216C_AHD_00005_V004_20190522_HIFI
System: Android 8.1 Go
Kenel: 3.18.22
CAN Pro: Daojun-Accord7 Single-V4.7.2-connect
DDR: 1G
Flash: 16GB
CPU: A7 1.3Ghz x 4
Capacitance: 10000 uF
Display: 1024*600
MCU1: HW8227L-3.3-SW0-3.0
I've also attached photos of the above. Any suggestions or comments will be very helpful as I honestly don't know what to do and before I replace it I would like to try get it working if possible.
Thank you for your time!

If you have an external amp, the blue antenna wire is probably used to turn on the amp. This only has power when using the radio app. You must change the wire over to the red ACC wire so the amp is turned on when the car is started. I had to do this on mine today.

My 8227L unit had an antenna wire with about 10V when the radio app was running... But it also had an amp wire that could be enabled somewhere in settings (amp=on) I think it was in factory settings but I can't really remember.
TboneL's suggested fix should also work just fine.
This would be awsome if I could do that in mine. I have a Peugeot 407 SW with the 8227L Android, and no sound plays whatsoever. As I've read, I need to connect the AMP-C wire coming from the car connector to the ACC red wire. Or if it has a way to achieve this through software, would be great. I searched everywhere in the options but can't find it.

Selecting the right head need unit Help please PX6 or 8257 or Unisoc 7862

Can I get some advice please
I got a basic android headunit years ago and not long after it became very laggy even with basic factory settings so i dint want it to happen again?
Looking to get at least a 4gb+64gb version
The main concern is reliability for as long as possible (as i understand as android updates certain units become obsolete)
But mainly DSP Quality and highest power RCA output for the amplifiers
Plus android auto and apple carplay for phone calls and GPS maps
It will be used in a weekend cruiser car with a old school set up of 2x12" subs and 2 sets of splits with 2 x descent RCA input style amplifiers
These are the models i have come across but not sure if or which one is best choice or should i consider something else?

7862 > px6 (11500 benchmark)> 8257 (9000) > px5 (4000)
Benchmark is in brackets. Can't find benchmark for 7862 but it is much better.
Get unisoc 7862
Make sure to check out our blog article talking about PXx and Unisoc units.

Specifically an FYT 7862UIS, such as Mekede/Navifly sell, but ask for screenshots of the system info first after reading the forums and knowing the differences.
After recently purchasing a FYT type 116 sold by "mekede", I would not go back to MTCD type.

MTCx units are best if one plans to run the Malaysk ROM which frankly blows any firmware out of the water.

Help identifying unit

Hello ,
First post , please could you help me identify my unit. I probably follow a well trodden path of buying from Aliexpress, not getting a lot of support from the seller and coming on here pleading for some advice!
I've got some minor Canbus and steering wheel control issues Im trying to solve so identifying the base unit will be a good start.
Unit is 6gb / 128 , on the rear is a HDMI and Optical audio ports alongside what looks like the usual Android Harness and various size white molex type plugs.
CPU-Z is telling me :
Model : msm8953 for arm64 (QZD_G1)
Manuf : QUALCOMM
Thats the Chip right? ( msm8953 = Qualcomm Snapdragon 625)
How do I find out what model head unit it is to direct my Q's to the right forum?

Main board inside the unit has this info
System Info from CPU-Z :
Here is the rear of the unit
Any help appreciated , thanks !
Fake Android 11 head unit from AliExpress... I'm shocked... shocked I tell you.
API level says 28, so it's actually running Android 9.
If CPU-Z is reading the hardware correctly, you only have 4GB of ram, not 6.
The CPU is correct as that's pretty much impossible to fake since the kernel needs accurate CPU information to work.
I really wouldn't trust most of that info though considering it thinks you have a 46" display with 32dpi resolution.
I wish you luck figuring out the rest.
I have a 14.4" unit (GT-6) in my F150, another Fake Android 11 unit that's actually running Android 10.
Difficult to root as they disabled all data access protocols on the USB ports and stripped away ADB over WiFi.
Thanks for the reply, my bad I've read so many posts I actually over-inflated my own ram , it was 4gb afterall and thats all I was expecting.
My main Q is how often these manufacturers wire the Can Hi/Lo direct into the unit as Im missing what I think is Key1 on the main head unit harness (no pin).
I've got ACC +12v , Reverse signals, but so far no ILLLUM (Lights) or SWC.

Some head units require an external CANBUS module. The one I have does.
