We have installed a Chinese radio in a 2009 Opel Astra H. This car has a navigator and multifunction steering wheel.
The radio has 4-core processors, with 1 gigs of RAM and 16 gigs of ROM. A modified version of Android 10 is installed. It was purchased from Amazon, which implies a 1-year warranty.
This model has a lag of a few years. Newer radios have PX5 or PX6 processors. They are quite a bit faster and enjoy good software support on the XDA forums. They are also more expensive.
The radio we have bought has an ISO adapter, a set of RCA jacks for video signal, another set of RCA jacks for sound signal, a radio antenna adapter and amplifier, a GPS antenna, two USB cables, a CAN BUS to decode the signals from the multi-function steering wheel, an adapter for an external microphone, a rear view camera, and an RCA male to male cable to transmit the video signal and power the camera on.
We are not going to use the adapter for external microphones, because the built-in microphone that the radio has is good enough.
We will not use the GPS antenna either, since our car has its own GPS antenna. To use our GPS antenna on this radio, we have to buy a male fakra to male SMA connector. Later, we will make the connection to connect the GPS antenna of the car to this radio.
We plug the USB cables, which will help us to charge the mobile by the radio, to use the mirror function of the mobile with the radio, and to use external USB flash drives.
We plug the connectors that will let us to use the rear view camera. First, we connect the RCA and power males to the corresponding females on the camera. Then we connect the RCA connector to the video input of the radio. THE RCA connector on the radio where the camera is plugged, is labeled as CAMERA.
Finally, we solder the cable from the ISO socket that will supply power to the rear view camera. The wire from the ISO socket used for this purpose is labeled as REVERSE.
Regarding the connection of the antenna for the radio, it brings a signal amplifier that must be powered. Therefore, we solder the wire that is labeled as ANT on the antenna cable, with the wire that has the same label on the ISO connector.
Remember that, to use the DVD drive, you must first remove two screws on the top cover of the radio.
We have bought a tool in Aliexpress to extract the original car radio. The rods must be inserted into the four holes of the radio, over almost their entire length. we will not be able to remove the original radio Until we hear a click in each hole.
When we take out the radio, we see a blue type c fakra connector, which corresponds to the car's GPS antenna. We also see a white fakra type c connector, which corresponds to the radio antenna. We also see the ISO power socket and a data cable for the navigator that we will no longer use. The car's navigator will no longer be available, so we will use the navigator that we install on our Android radio. Google Maps is installed by default. When we remove all the connectors from the original radio, we will plug the ISO connector of the radio with the ISO socket of the car. The ISO socket of the car has a tab that must be turned before removing the cable.
With the ISO socket and CAN BUS already in place, we check that the radio powers on, and that it turns off and on when we start the car. The radio has a power button on the left wheel. By pressing the button, we turn the radio on for the first time. If we turn the car off with the radio still on, it will turn on again when we start the car. In addition, we verify that the multifunction steering wheel still operates on the car's on-board computer, and that it also operates on the radio. The turn-on time for this radio is about 30 seconds. In this, it differs from the latest radios with PX6 processors, which are much faster.
We make a hole in the left side of the glove compartment of the car. We use this hole to pass through the male-to-male RCA cable for the camera, along with both USB cables.
We prepare the last connections for the camera. We connect the red wire that is next to the RCA connector, with the red wire of the power connector of the camera.
The black wire can be left loose, because the RCA cable will close the circuit.
When we engage reverse gear, the ISO socket will power the camera. This method does not require removing the backlights of the car, as the camera will not be power by them.
We connect the type C male fakra adapter cable to the male SMA connector, to carry the signal from the GPS antenna of the car to the Android radio. Once the antenna is placed, we can check the strength of the GPS signal with an application such as GPS Test Plus. We can also check the signal using any navigator, such as Google Maps.
