OKNAVI PX5 - Problem with SWC and Bluetooth.. - MTCD Android Head Units General

Hi all
I've bought an OKNAVI PX5 4GB A53 Android 9.0 from Aliexpress for my Ford Fiesta from 2013.
MCU is MTCE_HXD_V3.53_1 and I don't know which bluetooth chip is mounted.
I can't get SWC to work at all no matter what I choose in factory settings. OKNAVI says I should choose this: factory setting -126-canbus setting -06 FOCUS(Raise) but it doesn't work. When I try to learn the buttons on the HU, nothing happends. I've tried many settings but nothing works. I'm starting to think it's a connection problem but I'm not smart enough to figure out what is right and what is wrong:silly:
I've attached some pictures so maybe someone can see some issues with the connections.
Problem with bluetooth is that I can't hear anything during calls. Mobile connects fine and I can play music but no sound during calls. I've tried different settings under factory - bluetooth but nothing helps.
Maybe someone is able to help with this.
OKNAVI is trying to help me with my issues, I am in contact with them. But they haven't been able to solve my problems so far.
I've searched this forum for answer but nothing have solved it so far. I'm thinking about installing Hal9_mod_4.0 to see if that will solve my issues but I doubt it will.
Hope someone can help me

That connector was it issue on mine the was a grey to grey connector and a lose purple one the purple one worked and the swc worked after that check they connections and try them all

Change the SWC KEY option to CAN KEY.

Thanks for your reply. Got the swc working after I switched 2 wires after support from the supplier and changed the setting to Can key[emoji2] And bluetooth is also working, how I don't know[emoji848] I've unpaired and paired a couple of times and suddenly it worked[emoji16]

New issue, I've learned the middle swc key the "mode" function and it's working fine, it switches between "FM Radio" & "MUSIC" & "VIDEO" & "ALVIN".
But is it possible to change which programs it switches between??? I would like to use DAB radio and Spotify instead but I can't find where to change that...

I installed hal9k mod 4.0 and in there, you have the option to chose which programs the "mode" button switches between[emoji2][emoji106] Works like a charm[emoji16]

Curious problem with bluetooth (interference?) keyboard and mouse

Hi there guys!
This is my first thread, there seems to have been a thread on every problem I've encountered until now..
I have a motorola bluetooth keyboard
and a samsung bluetooth mouse
The keyboard works amazingly well on its own on my note 2. However when I also connect the mouse it starts to lag and type like thissssss. It's so bad it makes the keyboard unusable as you spend more time correcting what you wrote.
If this was a case of normal interference, I'd call it bad luck and leave it there.. HOWEVER - I tested them both on my macbook pro and they work as intended together. Now this puzzles me greatly as I thought they were interfering with each other's frequency, so shouldn't that be independent of the device I'm using?
Since they can work together, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with any suggestions of what's going on so I can come to some kind of solution/fix?
Thanks, looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
Any chance the cpu is underclocked (power saving mode in settings)?
from tapatalk (Galaxy Note 2)
Unfortunately it's not
Look for external keyboard helper in app store. Set delay settings to your liking. You will to have that set as your keyboard. Be aware that samsung keyboard tries to turn on depending on what Rom you ate running. I am somewhat disappointed in the bluetooth performance on my note 2. That is about all I am disappointed about.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using Tapatalk 2
Thank you so much! It worked like a charm! I actually already had the app installed, it was just set to no delay by default. I'm so glad I don't have to go out and replace my mouse
What exactly was it that disappointed you about the bluetooth performance?

On some of the ROM/kernels floating around I have had TERRIBLE bluetooth performance, voice wouldn't work to dial numbers over a bluetooth connection, but would work during a phone call, couldn't connect to more than one device without restarting the phone.
However Assassin Rom with the kernel that comes stock with it, that fixes all the problems I have had with bluetooth.

Oh man, I had no idea! It's been ok for what I've used it for, up until this problem, but now its fixed I'm pretty happy with it.
I just wished bluetooth used less battery.. or if the phone powered itself by creating energy :fingers-crossed: but thats probably only going to happen in 4.3
Also, try connecting to wifi using 5ghz (if you are on wifi). I have terrible problems when using 2.4ghz wifi and bluetooth together.

This solved my problem.
There's just not enough bandwidth available for 3 simultaneous devices connected to the same device on 2.4GHz band.

Has anyone seen this issue with Steering Wheel app/settings?

My Steering wheel app is blank - no buttons, so I can't remap anything.
https://goo.gl/photos/H6Q8Lb8Z3E5GK2ia9
If so, does anything know how to fix the issue?
Xtrons support is crap. I would not buy anything from them. Their only suggestion is for me to return or refund it, when I keep telling them it's software issue and to actually look at another unit.
You will press the button it will appear on the screen then you choose the action

4 of the 6 buttons on my steering wheel do things, but there are no buttons there to begin with, like shown here: http://kepfeltoltes.hu/141121/20141119_152125a_www.kepfeltoltes.hu_.jpg
When I press any of the buttons nothing happens in the steering wheel app. No buttons appear. If the button already does something, it just does it, instead of interacting with the app. The buttons that don't do anything, continue to not do anything. So basically the app isn't communicating with canbus adapter, but canbus adapter is working, since some buttons do stuff.
In your first picture the android version is 5.1.1 in normal cases when you press on your SWC they should appear and you will be able to link to an action
So if that is not happening with you I confirm that you have a problem and most probably a software problem so I suggest resetting the device to factory default and trying again
In the 2nd picture android version is 4.. which is a bit different in setting it up

Thanks for the suggestions. I've already tried to factory reset, but ended with the same results. My next attempt to fix it will be flashing stock factory rom... but my sdcard ejected and shot out and got lost between seat and center console. So waiting for new micro sd card.
same issue, on mi pumpkin unit.
I agree with you, the support is really crap 8 emails and nothing ...just ¨send it back¨
Don't buy Xtrons Units !
Eanon seems to have good support. They helped even though I didn't buy it from them. In any case, I had to press the swc first, then select which action I wanted it to take on screen.

Honest question: Did you confirm that your SWC wires are properly connected?
My fix for SWC
I had the exact same problem with my
Joying . SKU: JY-UL124 . From China Warehouse
. Quad Core Android 5.1.1 Lollipop OS Capacitive 7" High Definition for Universal Double Din . CPU: RK3188 1.6GHz Cortex A9 Quad Core, Resolution 1024*600
. RAM:DDR3 1G, 16 GB memory
I fixed it by connecting a earth or ground to one (either) of the SWC control wires from the car.
The car's original wiring only had a "ladder" resistance network between the two SWC wires and had no earth. This works ok for OEM but the MTCB type head needed one of the wires to have an earth connection. The moment I connected the earth the missing SWC icons populated the screen and the setup was easy from then.
Hope that helps,
Duke
You guys need to post this in the MTCD thread and not the MTCB. Some or all of you have the 5.1.1 units which have different core boards (MTCD). The moderator of Android Auto thread has been pressing the issue of posting to the correct thread. The units may look the same but the software and hardware are different than that of the MTCB units.
Hi guys i would ask your help. I have an Alfa Romeo Giulietta, Installed in the dash a nexus 7 2013 and I want use the steering wheel buttons. The car use the protocol is 15765-4 29bit and I have on Bluetooth obd reader. Can you please help me out? Thanks in advance.

Steering Wheel control app.
I realise that this is a 4 year old thread but did you solve your problem?
Did you set the canbus protocol in Settings/Car/Canbus to your specific car?
I'm having the same problem that my steering wheel app is blank!

Sound cutting out

Has anyone found a fix for the sound cutting out after a few seconds of a video or game? I have tried the soubdabout app, Turing the USB option off, disable Power save.. Still happening..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
I have the same issue sometimes, I've read around the web and it seems to be a mix of software and hardware related, I read a guy suggest removing and putting back the case (in case you have one) and I did that and the sound came back, haven't had the issue again.

Hmm, I keep mine out of a case,.. Yeah I'm not sure what it is, it's a 50/50 between some say software and some say hardware. I would asume that software would of been fixed by now, either Samsung or 3rd party
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk
So I found a solution for the issue in my case, it does seem to be software but it's really weird cause the issue continues in any firmware, it started when I was on 6.0.1 PI2, then I flashed Nougat and had the same problem (I hated it and battery drain was killing me) I went back to 6.0 and changed to the PK2 version and the issue continued, it was really weird cause it would cut out in audio messages, games but not music, I also tried every single suggestion on every forum and post I could find EXCEPT the Soundabout app, today I gave up, installed soundabout, selected media to speakers and bam, problem solved, I still need further testing, but it seems ok for now, keep in mind that I also have "prevent USB audio routing" on and "Easy Mute" off.

Im trying the soundabout app now, I orginally had it set to automatic and was still having the issue, now I set it to speaker and so far so good.
as this worked for me but idk about others... I was told to remove all paired bluetooth devices (on/off doesnt matter) then go to settings>connections>more connection settings>nearby device scanning then turn off... worked for me... (sorry for zombifying an old post but as this is still current with mine and many devices i decided to help)

Carlinkit A1 tbox problems

Hi,
I purchased a Carlinkit cpc200 tbox November 2021 (great product) and has been working perfectly.
Until this week, when it has stopped booting up. It will get to a black screen with android in the centre, it looks like it frozen but after 30 to 60 seconds turns off and try to reboot, with the same result.
When the unit is powered up there is a solid green and red light, after 15 seconds green light starts flashing,
after 30 to 60 seconds the red light disappears and 15 seconds later green light disappears. It seems as it is
Rebooting again.
I would like some help to fix problem.
Is this a firmware problem.
Short video of what's happening with my Carlinkit A1 tbox,
Problem booting up, anyone have a fix for this issue.

Hi,
I contacted the tech support and have tried to update unit multiple times with no result. As it was working perfectly, it was great but than stopped and now they (tech support) that is a low power issue, not software issue. I've also tried in 4 different vehicles and still not booting and bought new cable (same). Looking for the cable that may be the answer but having trouble finding it.
I am having the same exact issue and getting the runaround from the seller. Anyone have any advice?

Hi, I message Carlinkit support, they still think it's a low power issue, I tried different cable with no result. finally the cable that is shown is now available which should fix problem. I'll let you know if it works. ( I've already bought other cables that don't work )
I just got another AI box from them:
MMB 11 Plus 4+64 G Multimedia Box - Carpaly Ai Box With HDMI Input
MMB Multimedia Video Box 4+64 G with Android 11.0 system ,it has useful funtions : can convert factory wired carplay to a wireless connection and wireless Android auto, and video applications such as youtube, netflix can download in Google store,Screen mirroring for HDMI connector device
carplayaibox.com
I bought this thinking it would probably be buggy and eventually would return it but totally impressed. But this works great. Seems stable so far and allows for many customizations.
The Carlinkitcarplay Box is ok, It took a little time and patience to set up, but once I did, it runs well. Connects to phone immediately once I start my truck.

When you're using the android setup, is audio streaming via Bluetooth from your phone sent to the android box then the head unit or bypassed and goes straight to the head unit like factory android auto? Just wondering how much this device compromises audio quality of it's running through multiple sources.
Also, anyone tried rooting this device? Interested in running some audio mods through it like JamesDSP etc

I’m my GMC wired CarPlay always had better sound than though GMC Bluetooth. Now that the bt gets passed through the tbox it sounds better. I think the tbox has better bt version since that connection gets routed through wired connection to the truck and sounds as good as wired without tbox.
