I was gonna order one of these android units for my car the other week I need one but I wasnt sure what one to go for because theres so many different ones but this one looks decent and cheaper than the ones I was finding aswell good review bro 👏
for mine I didn't need it in the end but I found mine on eBay for 50p here's the linkwww.ebay.co.uk/itm/CAR-RADIO-STEREO-ISO-to-DIN-MALE-AERIAL-ARIEL-ARIAL-ANTENNA-ADAPTOR-PC5-27/291601984230?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649
Bought the same one as you and plug for read outs, question have you a subwoofer in your car, I've found the amp in my roadster but not sure if I can use that for a sub thanks M
Hello I've just installed a xtron unit in my TT . Just incase anyone is having a problem with sound being to quite on theirs in the settings menu ,under advance settings were you put the 126 code there is a page that says other in the list it says amp volume change it to 0 mine is great now it was set on -15 hope this helps
hey i got a very similar one, did you have any issue with sound quality and volume ? I feel like it doesn't sound as good as it should, but i never got the "base" audio because i bought the car with an already dead head unit so i had the android one from day 1
U really have to play with the setting go into the radio part there is an Equaliser in there with sound boost and bass boost makes a massive difference
I’ve just fitted one of these today very similar to this - I’ve now got a very annoying hissing noise coming out the speakers even if I mute the sound... it also cuts the music out and tries to activate a camera even though I don’t have one 😩. Gonna have to put the original one back in, the hissing is too much
The camera thing just happens I haven’t found a way to turn it off as for the hissing check all your connections or could be a faulty unit I would contact where you got it from and ask for a change good luck
Hey fella. Great vid. I have bought this unit for the second time and still have the same issue! Once installed, I turn the engine on, the system boots up and after a few seconds just turns off! When you turn the engine off, then on again…it starts from the page it was last on and doesn’t boot from the beginning. It’s like when it turns off, it’s on but the lights, display and controls don’t work. If that makes sense…any ideas?? Thanks.
there are a spare few wires left over for other things there are only a few pins you have to connect they should all be labeled up so you can tell what goes together it takes a bit of time a patients to do I hope this helps
Car Fella UK you legend thank you I have sorted it out. Quite straight forward in the end like you said. But for some reason I feel the sound is a little quieter
Yeah the sound is not as good at first but watch my review video ua-cam.com/video/NnUp2SG3EVg/v-deo.html and I explain how to fix that after u change a couple settings it’s spot on I hope this helps
@@carfellauk the radio only works if u don't drive around and stay still the GPS doesn't work either I'm gonna get a new one but not sure which make is a good one to get
I bet the antennas haven’t been hooked up Properly so there getting no signal should be easy to fix pull the unit out u will see them the gps has to be fitted to the window screen
Hi I've just recently purchased this head unit but I'm having trouble connecting to Google services did you have a similar problem at all? I've tried all settings but still nothing even hotspotting from my phone won't work them either.
@@carfellauk yeah I have had a reply from the place I purchased it from because mine came with no instructions or anything they helped me to set it up and get it connected so now it's all up and running properly and thanks for the reply it's much appreciated. 👍
Cheers bro I really appreciate the support I think I say in video there are some good videos that talk you through a load of different ones I tried a few different ones easy to swap between
Hi mate I just got one but noticed I ain't got connection for my rear speakers like I have for the front did you get extra connections for the rear cheers
Not the Bose system. But I'm going to check see if it's got amp for rear speakers today. Also the antenna has a green wire but no idea were it goes. No opposite green connection so my radio signal is bad .any help would be appreciated. Thanks fella
@@carfellauk ta .. I don't really need it but at £200 wow. Looks ace .. the x trons i have now is ok but I have to send radio from my phone via Bluetooth as the radio is FM
I have one of these in my Audi TT and it's crap... Looks flashy but I am forever having to reset it to factory settings because the bluetooth connection drops out and won't reconnect unless I do a full reset.
Tbh for the price it’s good but you are better off spending more and getting a better system I maybe change if mine soon but if you only have a small budget you can’t go wrong
Alham Cortes u will need the additional OBD2 reader if you hot spot from your phone go into the google play store u can download torque lite for free go to the app installer on the head unit install it and then just connect it to the obd reader via Bluetooth I have a full review of the unit coming Friday at 5
I am not sure mine connected very easy make sure the EML 327 is plugged in correctly to the obd2 reader I have also attached a like to a number of manuals for the EML 327 that I hope help u interfusellc.com/elm327/manual/
It does I think but requires an extra box tbh would be a nightmare to fit with the google store u can download apps so I got Netflix Amazon prime bbc iplayer ect so easy for watching TV movies ect
cheers bro I hope so really enjoying its a lot more work than I thought but trying to do what I love but none of it would be possible if people didn't watch the videos so thank you for the support
Cheers bro I just clocked that I don’t know y I have had Android 10 in my head I have changed the name I am going to double check on the head unit though I would still recommend the unit new video coming today at 5
Bought mine today and within a hour it is stuck on the raid mode and the touch screen dont work so only got radio now nothing else. £300 pounds down the drain
@@carfellauk mate - dam i fixed it. what you have to do is put all fingers on the screen and it resets the touch screen. So relived just need to go slow and not download to many apps.
Ahh sick i am glad you got it going. I got a few apps on mine seems to work ok I would say don’t fill it up it’s one of them systems u just got to learn it’s quirks

From memory there are a few wires at the back that have to be connected together on mine they were labelled give these a look
Did you have some of the pins sitting there idle from when you plugged the black connectors together?
there are a spare few wires left over for other things there are only a few pins you have to connect they should all be labeled up so you can tell what goes together it takes a bit of time a patients to do I hope this helps

I took a bit of messing around but yes it fits flush took a while to get it that way though

Yes you can connect a usb internet dongle to this head unit
Hi mate I just got one but noticed I ain't got connection for my rear speakers like I have for the front did you get extra connections for the rear cheers
I didn’t have any additional connections is your a Bose or non bose system?
Not the Bose system. But I'm going to check see if it's got amp for rear speakers today. Also the antenna has a green wire but no idea were it goes. No opposite green connection so my radio signal is bad .any help would be appreciated. Thanks fella
There should be another Ariel wire like a plug that goes in for the radio
Just got mine and as ditto Craig, Craig did you sort out your queries?
Also steering controls do not work? Do yours Craig?
Does this radio have a USB input and where is the input and the micro SD card input ?
