I installed an Android head unit in my wife's VW some 3 or 4 years ago.
Most features work just fine but there are three problems.
The RDS AF (auto follow) does not work even though box is checked. So as we drive out of the area of one transmitter in a network the radio does not automatically retune.
There is a small battery drain when the keys are removed from the car so after a 2 or 3 week holiday the battery is flat.
The boot time is very slow
Can these problems be solved with an update?
Thanks

Hello everyone,
about a year ago I installed an RK3188 car radio in my Alfa Romeo 159.
From day one the performance of the radio was very bad. Especially when I just started the car.
Recently I learned there are upgrades available. Would this work on my device?
Current Radio:
From aliexpress:
Quad Core Android 5.1.1 Car DVD GPS for Alfa Romeo 159 Sportwagon Spider Brera with Mirror-link BT Wifi Radio
RS-6007C1
MTCD_KGL_V1.92a_5
Oct 13 2016 10:49:02
Android: 5.1.1
Upgrade:
From aliexpress:
WITSON Octa-Core +4GB RAM +32GB Flash PX5 Coreboard For Android DVD (Android 5.1 A5XXX upgrade to Android 6.0 B5XXX directly
Thanks!
Hello geertjan88,
I have upgraded last week my alfa 159 android HU (MTCDE KGL MCU firmware 2.47 and Android 5.1.1) to Witson PX5 4Gb + 32Gb Android 6.0.1.
The result is nice! New board much faster.
Attention for radio. On antenna input no phantom supply for antenna amplifier (in PX3 5.1.1. neither).
Have good project!
Hello Geertjan,
Did you already upgrade your alfa 159 HU? If so, did you experience any issues? Or was it more or less plug and play. I have the same unit (1gb android 5.1.1) which is really slow. A new unit with android 8.0 one will cost approx. 300€

Yes I have.
The screws from the px-5 board do not align correctly with the unit. So it was some fiddling to get it fit correctly. There is some tension on the px-5 board but it is working as it should.
Improvements:
Bootup time is shortened drastically
Device is immediately ready to use
Device feels really snappy and fast
Multiple apps running at the same time, no issue at all
Steering wheel buttons now work!! (didn't work before)
Problems:
WiFi does not always auto connect, have to go into settings and connect from there.
All and all, best 100 dollar i've spend in years.
Thanks (bedankt ) !
I need light stable ROM for Galaxy J2 Pro (2018). Just something without all the samsung bloatware, preferably and android stock that I can install on top of. I have it rooted and twrp'd and ready to go.

Wierd, when I saw J4+ (Snapdragon 425 / msm8917) getting LineageOS 16 got on the news, I thought that ROM for Samsung Snap 425 (this phone included) would explode like crazy.
So, there are 2 options I guess?
Get to work yourself. Guides are plenty on the Internet. Reference tree is already available at J4+ tree/j4primelte
Ask a dev (definitely not me, I'm a broke noob ) to make ROM, with the reference of J4+ tree
Good luck o,o/

Thanks for the reply.
I'll also look around for a bloat removing script for this phone.
Hello,
I have been trying to find information about the 10.2 Dasaita from their official store.
I need to know which iso harness and can bus unit I would need to fit my 2011 T5.1 they asked me for pictures of the back of the radio but don't fill me with confidence as the don't seem to know what a vw transporter is. I have an android unit fitted at the moment but like you its failing, the unit that's fitted is an Audio sources head unit and works with the steering wheel button's, could it be I don't need anything harness wise as what I have will work with the 10.2 Dasaita?
I have pictures of the harness
that's fitted now!
Regards
Patrick

Supply them the required photos and look for schematics into internet for a more detailed answer

Hi! I want to get an HU unit for my car (Opel Corsa D 2011 87ps)
I saw a lot of models with different CPU and different Android Version. I want to get not something cheap with a good CPU and almost 4GB ram. In future will be good if this Android unit support a rear camera (better if wireless). Do you have any suggestions?
Up. I found a model with PX6 and another with Qualcomm A53 which one is better? A53 is from a company called Eunavi
