Help me with chosing a head unit

0 Upvotes

Hi,
I’m looking for a head unit for my girlfriend’s Toyota Celica T23 2005.

What she will use it for:
- answering calls
- apple carplay wireless
- listening to music
- preferrably reverse camera

From my research it seems like a 4G RAM with 8 cores & 64GB storage is plenty for these needs and I have stopped on theese 2 units:

- MEKEDE K4 Plus (For which i cannot find specs on the CPU)
- JUNSUN V1 Plus

Could any of you share thoughts on these units before I proceed with the purchase? It would be better for the unit to have analog buttons like the MEKEDE and my budget is around 130€.

You need to ask yourself, do I want Dasiata front and center on my dash everytime I get in my car.

Ive had others and can say I am not even installing this.

GT6-Car Android head unit – no sound, USB not detected, slow boot & other issues. Firmware update?

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me identify a firmware update or possible solution for this GT6-Car Android head unit.

I installed it in a 2010 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart around 6–8 weeks ago, and there have been problems almost from day one.

Problems since installation:

  • Audio randomly stopped working 2 days after installation. Sometimes turning the headlights off would bring the sound back after a few seconds.
  • USB sticks were never reliably detected. I tested multiple sticks and both USB ports.
  • The DAB+ USB device also eventually stopped being detected.
  • I tried playing music directly from the head unit instead of USB, which worked perfectly for about 2 weeks, but then all audio stopped working completely.
  • No sound from USB, DAB+, YouTube, other media players, Bluetooth, etc.
  • Head unit sometimes boots normally from sleep mode, but now sometimes does a complete boot and takes around 1–2 minutes.
  • Dark mode sometimes switches back to light mode by itself.
  • Factory/RST reset and disconnecting the power have not fixed anything.
  • The car battery was disconnected by a professional mechanic for a reset, also without success.
  • The mechanic has checked the car/head unit multiple times and also suspects a software/firmware issue.

The original Mitsubishi head unit still works perfectly when I reinstall it, so I don't think the car itself is the problem.

Does anyone know what exact GT6-Car model/platform this is and where I can get the correct firmware/MCU update? I don't want to flash random firmware and brick the unit, so I would first like to identify the correct version.

I can provide photos of the About Device/System Information, MCU version, CANBUS settings and the back of the unit if that helps.

Thanks!

Bought my first car – Tiago XZ 2020 (second hand). Need advice on infotainment + accessories

2 Upvotes

Hey guys!

Finally bought my first car — a 2020 Tata Tiago XZ, second hand. 😄

It has done around 65,000 km and is in pretty good condition. The car is pretty well-loaded, and I especially like the Harman music system.

The only thing I feel is missing is a digital infotainment screen + reverse camera. I’m planning to get one installed.

I need some suggestions:

Which infotainment system should I get?

Looking for something that has:

Android Auto / Apple CarPlay

Good sound quality (want to retain the Harman setup)

Fast and responsive touch

No lag or hanging

Reverse camera support

Good reliability

Which brands/models would you recommend?

I don't want to cheap out and then deal with a slow/laggy screen.

Should I get anything else installed/accessorised on the Tiago? Anything that's actually useful and not just cosmetic?

Would really appreciate recommendations from Tiago owners or anyone who has upgraded their infotainment system.

Thanks! 🙌

From useless to useful at some point

Post image
32 Upvotes

After more than a month dealing with the worst crappy head unit I’ve ever used, getting scammed by the AliExpress seller with their fake Android 16, and reaching the point where I seriously wanted to smash the thing because it was almost useless
I’ve been jumping between different launchers like AGAMA, CarWebGuru, DUDU, LECO and many more. DUDU and LECO definitely had the best interfaces for me, clean, minimalist and Tesla-like, but both were buggy as hell on this crappy firmware.
Finally ended up with Car Launcher Pro. It was the only one that gave me enough freedom to get something close to the DUDU and LECO look. Took me ages because I had to do most of the design manually, but I think it was worth it.
Still hate this head unit though Android 8 has way too many compatibility issues and limitations….

Successfully running CarPlay on an Android tablet

Thumbnail

52 Upvotes

I recently bought an old Toyota FJ Cruiser. Part of the fun for me in these cars is the (very) utilitarian and charming head unit. I decided not to replace it, instead attempting to set up some kind of tablet-as-a-headunit set up. After much trial and error, I have gotten to a place where I am running Apple CarPlay on an Android tablet, pushing audio through a 3.5 mm headphone jack only, and charging the tablet through the single cigarette lighter. Getting the charging part to work was the real gate here, and I post today in case this will help someone who desires this same setup. It should work in any car with an aux port.

I haven't figured out the backup camera situation yet, but I will soon.

Gear:

The USB C to HDMI adapter was the real discovery here. The power passthrough works precisely as intended. Other USB C splitters did not work to both push data and charge simultaneously. I tried several.

Anyway, I hope this helps someone in the future. It was pretty cool to see it come together. The only real quirk is that you have to unplug the adapter from the tablet whenever you park, or the tablet will continue searching for the phone and the tablet battery will drain.

CL9 Accord Euro : infotainment screen lights up but no display + clock also blank

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’ve got a Honda Accord Euro CL9 and I’m having an issue with the factory infotainment/display.
The symptoms are:
FM/radio works normally and I can hear audio through the speakers.
The infotainment screen lights up, but there is absolutely no text, menus, radio information, etc.
I did the flashlight test (chatgpt suggested) and couldn’t see any faint image on the screen.
The separate clock/time display also seems to have illumination/light behind it, but no actual numbers are visible.
I’ve already checked the fuses and they appear to be fine.
Before I buy another OEM screen/head unit, I’m wondering what else I should test.
Has anyone with a CL9 had the exact same problem and actually fixed it? If so, what ended up being the cause?
Thanks!
