Hello everyone,
Big thanks to the heavy hitters here that are making these units actually usable!
I received my Dasaita HA5217-V600 two weeks ago and thanks to having previously scoured these forums, I was able to install it, in my 2016 Toyota Corolla, with relative ease. Everything worked better than expected, and I had great bluetooth sound, strong WiFi connections, my door and A/C controls appeared on screen, my SWC all matched and decent FM reception. My bluetooth OBDII adapter is arriving this week so I'll have to report back on that.

My OBDII adapter arrived today and it immediately paired with my HU, and Torque Pro recognized it instantly! I'm thrilled at how easy this was.
For those interested, this is the adapter I purchased:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06Y6HLRKY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
So to recap:
My unit is:
MTCD HA5217-V600
10.2 " PX5 1.6 gHz, Octa-core, 2Gb/32Gb
Malaysk v5 ROM and MCU: MTCE v2.65f
Installed in 2016 Toyota Corolla S (6 speaker audio w/o factory "Entune" navigation system) and Rockford-Fosgate Prime's in both front and back.
SWC = all preprogrammed settings match my OEM settings, although they are unconfigurable.
Bluetooth connections have not yet dropped, volume and clarity are on pair with my previous Pioneer HU
Panel buttons all work and LEDs are configurable
Door and A/C controls all appear on screen.
GPS is fast and seemingly accurate so far. Recognized by every app that has looked for it.
OEM vehicle status listed properly in the 'vehicle' section
Amp/Fader/ViperFX all work as expected
WiFi connections are strong enough for my purpose. I can connect to my home WiFi from inside my garage.
AM/FM Reception and clarity are better than the stock system
Screen is bright and usable and auto-dims with Headlights on
Daylight brightness is a little difficult to see. (Then again I live in Florida and the tropical Sun made even my JVC, and Pioneer HU's difficult to see. Kenwood was the best for this IMHO)
OBDii interfaced paired quickly and easily and has so far stayed connected and recognized by apps
OEM Rear-view camera connects to the system without issue and is much easier to see on a 10" screen. As well as now having several configurable options in the "factory settings"
OEM USB port is recognized as well as the 2 additional USB ports included with the HU.
HOWEVER, the OEM AUX audio port is not usable with this configuration. (or if it is, I haven't figured out how to configure/access it yet)
I do not have a DAB+ or Front Camera, TV tuner/DVR so I do not have any information to share about those.
I tested the A/V in with a portable DVD player and there were no unusual issues there.
Over all I am very happy with this unit and am thrilled that I took the risk investing in it.
One more BIG thanks to everyone here who has helped to make these HU's worth it!
Thanks for the detailed write up. I just ordered mine. Px5 7 inch 2gb ram dasaita. Any tips for a newbie? I've been browsing the forums myself for the past couple of weeks and I'm aware of all the mods and custom ROMs etc. Just asking you if there's maybe any advice you wanna give on how I should proceed with the unit or just generally anything that might help.
Appreciate any reply
I have Dasaita/Hotaudio HA2100-v600 7" device and happy - it works here good!

Hi, I'm a fellow Corolla owner in FL As well!
I just bought a Dasaita PX3 2GB RAM 16GB (Quad core vs your 8 core PX5 due to it being close to $300 flat on an ebay flash sale) and have a question regarding the AUX port, you said the stock USB was retained but not the AUX, is there an aux port on your unit or any way to hook one up?
-Where did you mount the GPS antenna?
-Are you using the stock interface, or have you tried any launchers? I downloaded auto mate and Car Launcher free and so far like Car Launcher's look.
-Anything unusual with your unit?
-Have you tested Waze and Google maps? Do they run stable?
-Does your unit pickup your wifi automatically when you startup the car?
I appreciate your very detailed post as I'm patiently waiting for mines to arrive within the next week.

I have a question regarding the AUX port, you said the stock USB was retained but not the AUX, is there an aux port on your unit or any way to hook one up?
*Sad to say that I have not yet found a way to use the AUX port, but then again I haven't tried very hard.
-Where did you mount the GPS antenna?
*I mounted mine on the passenger side dashboard, as far right and forward as it would go. It blends right in as far as I am concerned.
-Are you using the stock interface, or have you tried any launchers? I downloaded auto mate and Car Launcher free and so far like Car Launcher's look.
*I Bought Car Launcher Pro. By far the best overall. It has been steadily updated, has a great look/feel, easy to modify and the most stable.
-Anything unusual with your unit?
*Nothing that I can think of. I'm still in love with it!
-Have you tested Waze and Google maps? Do they run stable?
*I don't use Google Maps, but I have Waze autostart. I'm dependent upon it now! Lots of threads here about Google Maps not working well.
-Does your unit pickup your wifi automatically when you startup the car?
*as of HA-2.75 it does.
You |may| have to trim a piece or 2 off the bezel to get it to fit perfectly in your dash. I had to cut off 2 tabs on top of my PX5.
Good luck!
I have a similar 9" unit.
Running Malaysk v5 ROM and MTCE v2.71 as the bluetooth for 2.75 didn't work well.
I do have the DAB+ aerial and app and it works ok however mostly I use Google music. I have no problems using Waze or copilot.
What I haven't been able to do is get my reversing camera to show on the screen. I have a wireless version and both halfs have leds that light up when the car is in reverse but no picture regardless of which connection I use.
Also I can't get it to connect to a ELM357 OBD2 dongle.
I've had the unit for 4 months and last week while driving to work the screen went black, the unit was still working it was just the screen. The next time I started the car the screen came back....weird.
Other then this the units ace!

Just to give you a quick update, I received my PX3 unit about a week ago and installed it. At first I encountered one main bug which was that the radio app would go to the background automatically every time I opened it, dasaita sent me the link to the MCU thread and everything updated fixing the issue.
As far as launchers go, I stuck with Car Web Guru for now as it gave the most options on a free basis to experiment with different themes.
The only thing I've noticed is that the backup camera image is a little laggy but nothing to die for.
The only thing I'm still trying to figure out is how to get my wifi hotspot to start automatically (Note 8) when connected to CAR KIT, I tried tasker but it says unable for my device.
I love this HU! and Dasaita on ebay has been very responsive.

Hello I have bought a Dasaita HA2039-S720 for Mitsubishi Outlander 2014. I have the same Issue with my Radio App. Everytime I open it, it goes in background. Kill it with the Task Manager can't stop the Music. I have to reboot the Device. I have MCU Version MTCE_HA_V2.75.1 and ROM px3-userdebug 7.1.2NHG47L eng.hct.20171206.143935 test-keys.
Did a system update realy fix your Problem? I noticed that this happend every time a station is scanned and saved. Delete the Cache and Programm Data from Radio App in the App section fixed the issue but you have no music then but white noise.
I have some Issues with apps in general. Sometimes Apps are crashing and did not load properly and stuck while loading.
My OEM Rear CAM Image is laggy and not very smooth too.
Today I tried to update die Rom with this Version HCT2_px3_7.1(20180206) but it failed. Don't know if it's the right one. The Device found this Image and promptet me to update. After a short loading screen a Faild message appeared on the screen and it showed an options screen. I inserted another SD CARD with the image of the update and choosed "update from SD or USB" but it failed again so I rebooted the system. I choose swipe in the beginning and after a reboot the system was in factory condition.
But can anybody explain me what went wrong and how to properly make a Rom and MCU update.
Thanx
Hey guys I just wanted to become a part of this I just purchased and installed this type radio along with the Bluetooth adapter for the cars computer. Hopefully I will soon get the ATSC digital antenna so I can watch TV when my wife goes in to shop for something that will supposedly: "only take a minute." I have to say the install was incredibly easy. Everything works very well and sounded great connected to my factory system of the 2013 Kia Optima. I did use the radio's subwoofer output and added a 300 watt powered Rockford Fosgate subwoofer. It all sounds amazing together. I attached two photos of the type of radio I purchased (or tried to. Kinda new here).

I am looking at one of these model for my Ford Focus, but can anyone tell me if it come with a separate canbus?? The only reason I am asking is that I have the V840-8 which doesn’t.... unfortunately it only has a prgramable key control, which doesn’t always work...
Many thanks for anyone that can help

My Dasaita PX5 4/32 unit (MCU version 2.88) turns completely off in 30 seconds (lowest preset in system settings) after turning the ignition off.
When turning the ignition on the unit is starting up behind the scenes. When you press power it's already half way in the booting process or even done depending on how quick you switch the unit on.
I'd say about 15 seconds to boot up. This is with a DAB+ unit and USB stick attached.
If you want instant on (e.g. when shopping for an hour or doing multiple deliveries), you can play with the different off time presets in the system settings.

How good is the microphone performance? I have an old android headunit that I could never get mics to work properly on. Voice calls and "Okay Google" is important for me when I upgrade.

It's an MTCD - they're pretty much all the same.
For best peformance on this platform, use an external mic, which may require the internal disconnected.

Sorry, I'm just curious as I just got one for my car installed... but the internal microphone performance is horrible. The box came w/ an external microphone, but is there something i need to do to disable the internal microphone?

Like any MTCD unit, first boot is approx 15-20 secs, with the unit sleeping thereafter resulting in 'instant' resume.

Hello All,
From few days I'm owner of PX3 device for my Peugeot 407. I've go two issues which I'cant solve. I'm using original ROM
Factory parking sensor
It doesn't work with delivered CAN Bus (BAGOO PSA-BG-02 SW: V002)
In product description is information that should be supported, but it doesn't.
On aliexpress comments I've found the tip that I should cut the pink cable to make it working again. Anyway it doesn't work. I've also try to disconnect each single cable from CAN Bus but it doesn't help as well.
Did anyone have a similar problem and resolve it ? On you tube I've found the information that additional CAN Bus interface should help, but maybe is the different solution ?
- Can I check somehow if any parking sensor signal are received by head unit ?
- Maybe I've got old version of CAN Bus ?
- Any others ideas ?
Buttons on steering wheel
In my device only buttons volume up / down work fine, others not. I'm not able to map them with the mapping apps (delivered with the device and from play shop)
Any way I can notice the reaction when I press them.
For example. When I wan't to find next station on radio. I need to press voice command button and then it works only one, then I need to press first button again.
I was wondering if the customize ROM e.g. by Malaysk can help with this issues ? Or is not the case ?
Thanks for your answers in advance.
same problem
Hello,
I have the same problem. I think it's a problem with the can-bus decoder. Have you been able to solve it?

Hi Diablo3177,
Not at all . I've installed Malaysk ROM, updated MCU and it hasn't help.
I alslo guess that is all about can-bus adapter. I will probably give up and istall extra parking sensor and remote on the steering wheel. It should work
Anyway please let me know if you find working solution.
I believe is possible:
https://youtu.be/lj3n35pUvhg
I've tried to contact with the guy from video, but he hasn't answer.
Hi,
Have you maybe resolve this problem? I have this two problems allso...
I have contacted the guy of the video. He gave me a update for my headunit and told me that the bagoo won't work in our car.
He is going to send me another canbus adapter. He lives in Turkey and I live in the Netherlands so it can take a while before I let you know if it works.
Frans
And that was the problem. The Bagoo is the wrong Canbus converter. I bought the one from the guy in Turkey and now everything works like expected.
Hi Frazzy,
Can you show your new canbus (photos and where we can buy) and share the update firmware?
This is the one I have now.
I bought it from him in turkey but its 25 euro shipping and 30 Euro money transfer. So I would look further if you are not desperate.
The update is specific to my head unit I think and it does nothing without the canbus adapter.
Thank for the replay. In the photo we cannot see all model number and software version.
But, now your Peugeot 407 original parking sensors, AC, Buttons on steering wheel, ... work well?
And the vehicle information, link "open doors", seatblets, lighs that don't work, errors, ... are all displayed?
This is a better foto
Everything works perfect. Also doors opening and closing is instant now and not laggy. all the buttons on the stearing column work to. I haven't found anything that isn't working yet.

What about temperature unit? Can you set the temperature unit to celsius? How many cabels are connetcted to connector from canbus decoder?
Temperature's ar in Celsius. You can count the wires in the first image. The black and white one are going to the external backup buzzer.

where could I buy it ?? I also have 407 but I have parking sensors, the problem is only on the steering wheel that only the volume change works
Do some of you have an issue with the speaker for the parking sensors? Mine is on very low volume and I don't know how to increase it
Hi Guys,
Has anyone found the shop when the working cunbus may be bought ? I've found some on aliexpess (some on photos look very simiar for the Frazzy's one). However, all sellers wrote me back that it can't be sold separately. Only with the central unit from their store :/

You posted 2 pictures with 2 different CANBUS decoders. On the first one it says For: Peugeot 20X(something) it's not readable but most probably is for 207.
The second picture says For Peugeot 407. Which one is working?
I also found a website (google RoadNavi i can't put external links yet) where these canbus adapters can be ordered separately, but i really need to know what model to order.
I also have the Bagoo canbus adapter and it won't take AC commands, stering wheels, passengers side input any many others ... it also broke my right Air flaps and had to service the car and dismount the whole dashboard. I fixed everything and mounted the original audio unit back untill i will find a fix for this problem.
You are the only one paying attention
The second one is the correct one.

Hi Frazzy,
I see there is no PX5 8 core 4 GB RAM for 407 from Mekede just PX3 4 core 2 GB....
if I buy this unit for my 407 Year 2009 vvv. ebay . c om/itm/112926331486?ul_noapp=true
will I get right can bus decoder or I will need to buy that one from Turkish guy for all stuff working (A/C control, front/rear park assist, board/trip computer, settings of car, steering wheel controls... ) ?
Thanks for help
L
I really don't know. I'm no expert in this stuff. I just found the guy with the working canbus adapter.
If you are getting a bagoo than it won't work.
By the way, on AliExpress they have px5's as well.

As I know, it's a lucky to buy with the correct can-bus decoder. All canbus sell with this units work with the basic functions of the 407, but the new versions also have resolve the problems with AC, steering keys, parking sensors, ...
Maybe you can contact the seller and ask for the version of canbus decoder or share with him the photo of this working decoder...
I got a weird problem. It's a pumpkin headunit that can with the car I got. It's been working fine ever since I've gotten it. But last night when I was driving the music stopped playing and the rear view camera came on the display while i was on the freeway. Clearly I was not in reverse as I was going forward. It seems like it was doing it when I was just going forward, until I came to a stop then it'll go back to playing music, but then once I got going again it'll display the rear camera on the unit. I wouldn't mind if it kept the music going. None of the buttons are responsive when it is in rear camera view mode.
I've tried a factory reset, it is still doing it. Even today when I the car was not on. I was just setting the radio presets again, low and behold the rear view camera came on but for a few seconds and went away. It is still doing it when the car was off. I'm kind of confused as what the problem is.
Is autopumpkin.com working for anyone also? It doesn't seem like they are in business anymore?
Thanks for reading, and any possible places to look.
Hi, any progres? I have https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/DtwdJIt its px5, Mtce_gs_v2.90c. Now I have a little problem with rear camera. I bought reverse camera and tried to connect it into front camera input(I was curious how it would look like) and since then its stuck on camera view. Even after disconnecting camera. Only solution was disable "prohibit reverse" in factory settings menu, but with "prohibit reverse" disabled is obviously not showing reverse camera when I gear the reverse down. Everything is shown in this video. https://photos.app.goo.gl/XbYUHApzT8qTezkq6
Turns out it was the canbus decoder that has gone haywire. It reads the canbus and checks for the reverse message and turns on the camera. With it unplugged I do not get random rear camera view anymore, but I also lose my steering wheel button to control the unit. I'll see if pumpkin will help me out, my unit is out of warranty.
