There was a known issue with iphone to android unit hot spot connections. But, Apple said that is fixed.
I power up the unit and most of the time the iphone will show that there is a a connection to my iphone's hotspot. So, the iphone shows that the Dasaita head unit is connected. BUT, the head unit says that it is NOT connected to any SSID. I go to youtube and banner at the bottom says "no connection" but, I am able to browse youtube. I checked other apps and some work and some do not.
The iphone hotspot does not show up in the list of wireless networks. I turn the hotspot off and on several times over the course a min or two. Then the SSID shows up and I connect. Then go back to the apps and sometimes the connection drops and I have to start over.
I installed a better antenna and it is right next to the iphone. The connection show excellent when it is connected. But, the above problem remains.
I have search posts for weeks on this one. No luck. Is there a fix?
I updated to MTCE_HA_V3.60.zip and it appears to have fix the issue.
Here is the email I got from Dasaita
Here is the MCU update link: 3.60 https://www.sendspace.com/pro/dl/x23xmc Please download then ONLY put IMG file to the usb (format the usb firstly). Finally click the setting > system > > MCU update to update it. (If you can not download the file, please change the Explorer or computer to do it) Hope the software update can help you fix the issue. If not, please email me again.

Spoke too soon. Problem still there.
Did you ever sort it ? A friend of mine has a KGL unit with an MD725 wifi/BT module and it connects to my Android phone fine, but his iphone 8 shows up and connects, but most of the time after about 1 and a half minutes it disconnects, occasionally it connects for longer but rarely. I have other friends/family members with both older and newer iphones and MCTD/E units none have this problem with their units.

I have a Kenwood KDC-MP642U car audio system with Bluetooth capabilities and I have my HTC Touch Pro 2 [t-mobile] successfully paired and working great with 1 annoying exception.
As soon as the units connect to each other the contacts / phone book start downloading from the phone to the Kenwood system which is fine, however..... after EVERY call the contacts download fully again making the phone barely usable [slow] until the full phone book is downloaded. [90 secs for 150 contacts]
There is no setting on the Kenwood unit to not allow automatic download... if the phone supports it.... it will download. I was told by sales rep that his Kenwood did that as well and just to live with it ? ? ? ? ? ?
I have tried to find the appropriate registry setting on TP2 to deny auto PBAP access and download and cant find any help on this...... any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have the same setup, and noticed it on my prior phone as well (Motorola KRZR K1). I believe that the phone is updating the "recent calls" list on the headunit. I know for me the second download is MUCH faster than the first.
I haven't seen any information about preventing the update download.
this should do the trick:

Question: does it show up as one of the profiles under the bluetooth paired devices list?
I updated to Lollipop and now my Bluetooth will not stay connected in my car. I'll drop bluetooth after about 15 minutes on the deck, but my phone will say it's still connected. I have toggled bluetooth and it will reconnect, but no audio. I have to restart my phone to get audio back for another 15 minutes. I've repaired the phone to the car, done a factory reset, cleared the cache. I'm at a lose, does anyone have any words of advice?

I have the same problem after updating to lollipop. With kitkat I had never an issue. Have been searching for solutions during last couple of months. We only can wait until the next update I think. Or revert back to Kitkat. You should make your car audio as trusted bluetooth device. But that didn t help for me either, still had the same connection issues.
Before the update to Lollipop my device connected to my vehicle using Bluetooth (music, hand free calling/reads messages etc). And now after the update it STILL works the same.
Same here!
I have a Parrot MKi9100 and Note 4. Prior to the update it worked perfect, routing all audio from my phone through my truck. I updated to lollipop and only the calls would route (after clicking between speaker and bluetooth a few times). So then I updated the MKi to the latest version and now when it connects it thinks audio is constantly routing when nothing is! I had to delete the pairing so I can use my radio!
I sent a request to Parrot, but thought this would be an even better arena to escalate issues!
If you have power saving enabled. Switch it off and see if that helps. Just an idea.

I was having a problem with Bluetooth also. What I done was went to settings/Application Manager/All/go to Bluetooth and Bluetooth test/clear data then repair phone

I'm going to try this tomorrow.
I listen to music via bluetooth in both my truck and through my headphones.
On Kitkat, everything worked perfectly, but on Lollipop, the music "pops" or "skips" every so often. Completely random, but 3-6 times per song. It's really annoying.
Fix what resolved the issue for me (ATT Note 4 Lollipop)
1. Unpair both devices (remove the car from the phone; vice versa)
2. Make sure you turned off your bluetooth
3. Go to: Settings -> Applications -> Application Manager -> All
4. Clear Cache first then Clear Data: "Bluetooth", "Bluetooth Test"
5. Enable bluetooth & pair again with your car
6. IMMEDIATELY disconnect (you can do it from either way; car or bluetooth).. but keep the bluetooth turned ON
7. Download latest "Bluetooth File Transfer" application from Google Play
8. Open it and switch to the second tab ("bluetooth icon")
9. Select your car and do the following three things one by one (until they complete!!!): File Transfer Profile (FTP), Object Push Profile (OPP), Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP)
PLEASE NOTE: each of these steps may take 5-10 minutes and will FAIL for sure (a "STOP" sign will pop up in the application after it completed the action partially. Be patience and wait until that. If you did all three steps you can close the "Bluetooth File Transfer" app and move on Step 10.)
10. Go to Settings -> Security -> Trust agents -> Smart Lock (Google): ON
11. (you may need to leave and re-enter to Settings to see it) Smart Lock -> Trusted devices -> Bluetooth -> your car
Your phone should work again fine w/ the car. I've tried with my AT&T Note 4 after having the same issues.. 2 days perfect (even after few restarts). Also my friend followed these step on Verizon Note 4, also resolved the problem.

Worked great for me with the NOKIA CK-1W. Thank You!
I couldn't connect it with any device with lolipop system.
So it's a lolipop bug...
I tried this on my Samsung Note 4 and it appears I now have working Bluetooth Stack with my Lexus hands free. IMO when one deletes a Bluetooth profile any remnants in the Profile should be deleted. It seems silly one needs to go through these steps to repair the profile's Bluetooth stack. Hopefully Marshmellow will fix what is critically lacking in Lollipop.
Great post! Thanks for sharing this!
This issue with the BluetoothPbapService has been driving me nuts for the past months. An initial solution for me to force stop the BluetoothPbapService in the Bluetooth Share process under Settings -> Apps -> Running, but the service gets restarted each time you click on the Bluetooth option.
@jake_net's suggestion has inspired a workaround fix for me.
If you have a rooted Android, download this app from WangQi called Disable Service (from the PlayStore). Click on the System tab, select Bluetooth Share. Uncheck the BluetoothPbapService.
My Bluetooth connection with my car's handsfree has been flawless ever since.

Sadly even after the 5.1.1 updated I'm still experiencing bluetooth issue's when my screen is off. When my screen is off, I experience skipping quite often, yet with my screen on bluetooth works fine.
I believe I've exhausted all means of troubleshooting this =/

Bluetooth Connection Dropping in Galaxy Note 4
I have the same problem after automatic updating my Note 4 from the original Android 5.0.2 to Android 5.1.1. This problem happens to my Headphone Sony MDR-10RBT that was working properly before, now after 1 to 3 minutes of playing music the BT connection just drops. My Bluetooth is working properly with the BT Keyboard with my car system BT for calls and audio, transfer files over BT, so the problem is selective......that is to say a huge BUG in the software. This Headphone is still working fine with my other Galaxy S5 with Android 5.0.1. I have tried every thing possible.... Soft Reset, Hard Reset, Cleaning Cache Partition, cleaning cache e data do BT app e BT test app.......... nothing solve the problem with the Sony Headphone. I have contacted Samsung and they told me to take my phone for the technical assistance?????? What for?! BT is functional. HUGE........ HUGE BUG. One other thing that stopped working in my Note 4 is the NFC???????? Shame on Samsung.... For me that is the end of it no more Samsung I have left Nokia for similar reasons, now head on to IPhone...

I dont know what to do when I get to the "Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP)" step. Can someone help?
When I select FTP or OPP, there is a distinct progress bar that tries to send data and fails.
When I select PBAP, I am presented with a bunch of files and folder but no option to transfer. I can long-press any file but really no way to upload them.
So what should I be doing here?
Thanks in advance.

Problem is only with some Phones. For Example my Lenovo VibeShot don`t work. My wife Lenovo k3Note (MIUI) works great. Sony Z3 works. Iphone 5s dont work with Hedunit.
HeadUnit see Wifi hotspot. I can write password. But when is connecting signal strenght drop to one line and couldn`t connect.

Edit: Today I install Malaysk ROM on 3th 2din unit. Problem also exist but HU connect to Hotspot itself for about 1-5 minute. When i click manually "connect" effect is the same as on 1th and 2nd unit. Range drop down and couldn`t connect.
I've noticed the same on mine with a mifi device - wifi seems to drop everynow and then,

Same here. I'm running latest Malaysk ROM (Jan 2016) on AN RK3188 1024X600 JOYING (JOYOUS) heading. WiFi was ok for bench testing but it will connect with full bars then drop after a short time (30s-3min). Not sure how to fix it because for a week it was fine... Won't connect to home wifi (in the house beside my computer) or my iPhone 5 hotspot 5cm from unit. Anyone have some ideas?

i drive car to my workplace and parked close to door. when i connect to my modem no any problem left. it is connecting, connection is not drop, when i start car it is auto connecting. everything is looks like fine.
is this machine have problems with hotspot internet?
what is going on?
so we need real help. please hear some one here. thank you.
Have the same issue. Problem started after updating to FUSE technology on Malaysk ROM. WIFI drops connection after few minutes of using. Not sure if it can be fixed by ourself. It should be reported to Malaysk.
On Malaysk ROM 02-07-16 (version 2) on RK3188 800x480 HZC. Had the drop out issue on the stock android 4.4.4 but also on Malaysk ROM - very, very weird indeed... Would nive to have it fixed.
Hi mas618, did you get an solution. Got the same "wifi drop issue" with stock ram and also with malaysk rom.
Same to me. Any fix available?
Wifi corrected
Hi
Finally i found problem. Thank me if it is useful.
Problem is not software problem. It is just harware problem
I just take out unit from car. Opened 2 screws top of dvd and removed metal lid.
Wifi cable has 2 wire in 1 wire. Middle is the + outside wire is ground. So both is soldered very badly to signal point. I was able to solder ground side to ground but i just changed wifi antenna with wire from laptop antenna.
You can just solder it. Or you can chane it.
In first picture you can see very bad solder.
In second picture you can see new antenna with wire soldered.
You can solder outside wire any place of ground.
My wifi is now very good works. Not drop anymore. And bluetooth audio is not drops too.
I saw the cpu is not have any cooler. The last pictures show cooler is planted to rk3066
*** Edit ***
So I realized that not only SD and WiFi are affected but also USB ports as well. Meaning that DAB+ Radio also restarts from time to time...
Maybe a hardware issue?

Hi there,
just bought a MTCE PX5 unit with Android 8.0 (4 GB Ram, 32 GB Rom).
MCU version is 2.94_1 MX2
I have two severe issues I can't get rid off:
1.) Wifi is turning itself off randomly every some minutes. I have to reactive manually which is working. But very annoying when navigating or listening to web radio.
I already tried wipe data, installed different Oreo roms, changed location accuracy to "device only" - didn't help.
2.) My SD card (I tried 3 different with different sizes and classes) are getting unmounted every some minutes and remounted immediately.
Also I didn't find a fix for this yet.
Any Idea what I could try to fix both issues?
Best regards,
thanks a lot!
Christian
Got the same problem here with the wifi at first. But now I can't turn it on and it's Mac address shows 02:00:00:00:00:00

I’ve purchased a Dasaita PX6 headunit. It’s advertised as Max6. Here are the specs:
Build number:
rk3399-userdebug 9 PQ2A. 190305.002 20190828.185647 test-keys
Kernel version:
4.4.167
#593 Tue Aug 27....
MCU Versipn
MTCE_HA_V3.30_2
I am also running an iPhone XS on iOS 13.2.
I’ve tested the hotspot on my iPhone with other decided and they are able to connect. I’ve also tested other iPhones on the Dasaita to see if it will connect to them. Unfortunately, I’m not able to get any iPhone to connect to the head unit. The head unit is able to connect to other SSID that are not iPhones. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks!
Have you seen this?

Yes, I have. I've tried all the tips. Nothing. It's weird because the head unit can pick up other hotspots/wifi SSID, but it does not find my iPhone. Initially, I could see the iPhone hotspot. It says "Connected...Saved" - this repeats 3 times and then it goes away.
Is your hotspot configured for G and N?

There is no way I can configure this - it happens automatically in the background, configured by Apple.
Even with the new MCU 3.37 update, I still get this problem occassionally. I've been turning the personal hotpot on and off multiple times, before the wifi connects itself!

Dude! You’re luckier than I am! I have that MCU as well, but my hotspot is not found ever! After it’s found the first time, it connects, saves the SSID, and then never displays or connects ever again.
I think this is both an iPhone AND head unit issue. It’s weird because not only can I not see the iPhone hotspot on head unit while sitting in the car, but I can’t see it on other devices either. However, as soon as I walk about 5 feet away, I can see the ssid.
So weird.
Hmm, when you turn on personal hotspot for your iPhone, you got to make sure to keep the screen on, at the page where to turn on your hotspot to wait for the headunit to connect. Then keep trying multiple times, or change your hotspot password!

Could be the location of the WiFi antenna.
I had the same issue on my Samsung Note 10+, I had to turn off "Allow 5ghz" in my wireless sharing options advanced settings. Then my MAX6
connected.
I was having a similar issue with my iphone hotspot being found, but not connecting, just saying "saved." The was being caused by the bluetooth connection between the head unit (car kit) and the iphone. You need to go into the iphone's bluetooth connection settings for the head unit (car kit) by tapping the "i" icon and then turn off carplay in the settings there. This should allow the iphone hot spot to be found and connected to by the head unit. It worked for me.
Same for me... Sometimes, turning off and on the iPhone then connects. in some cases it connects immediately ... boh
