Android Head Unit 200 dollars in a 2016 BRZ
Video:
[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngAGL8PtdN0"]The Value Android Headunit you should have (Panlelo) - YouTube[/ame] Can't get over how good the screen looks. It's nice. For those who are looking to upgrade that trash starlink system or older unit. Surprise these android headunits are moving up so fast. The value is just incredible I need to pick up one of those radio dash pieces. Trying to find a good deal if anyone knows any. |

Interested to hear how it performs 6mo-1yr from now. That's the main complaints vs most inexpensive android head units is that everything starts out great but once you start to load up your favorite apps music and so on then it slows down drastically and becomes very buggy. Hope thats no longer the case and they have resolved these issues.

It's been pretty well established over on XDA that the only way to improve the performance of the 1GB RAM units is to either solder in 2GB or replace Google Play Services with MicroG, both of which are somewhat tedious.
My soldering skills aren't up to snuff so I'm waiting for the next ROM revision by Malaysk which will hopefully incorporate MicroG. To anyone considering a 1GB unit I would suggest making sure the MCU is of the MTCB/C/D type. The ROMs by Malaysk, DSA8310, Booroondook, et al. will only run on those and you will otherwise be stuck with whatever the reseller (Joying, Pumpkin, Eonon, Panlelo, whoever) offers in terms of updates/upgrades, which is not a good thing IMO. |

From the pictures here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showp...&postcount=669 it looks like the MCU is not of the MTCB/C/D type. If it has the same RK3066 or RK3188 SoM as most of these seem to then chances are the RAM is the same. Some info here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...sions-t3533108 and here, where there were a couple of group buys. The guy that did the last one ('oskaratk') might have some left over: https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...b-ram-t3483677 https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...buy-2-t3512366 Here's a couple of threads regarding MicroG on MTCB/D units...I would imagine it'd be similar on a rooted Dashlinq. I haven't tried it yet, it looks like kind of a pain in the ass lol. https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...boost-t3590382 https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...speed-t3581439 |

The only thing keeping me from getting an Android head unit is the lack of hardware satellite radio support. I know I could use the SiriusXM app but that requires me to pay for cell data on top of the subscription fee AND I'm limited to cell coverage areas which is a big problem for me.

That would probably be this guy here: https://www.amazon.com/Android-Highl...=joying+toyota This is the only one I know of that is 200mmx100mm, so no dash kit should be needed. They do make a universal model that I think is 178mm wide as well. It is Intel SoFIA based, so no custom ROMs at the moment unfortunately, but that's about the only downside I see compared to the Rockchip/PX5 based units. Couple of threads on the Joying 2GB RAM SoFIA models: https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...ommon-t3577217 https://forum.xda-developers.com/and...pdate-t3597121 |
