Long Term Review (2 years) joying snapdragon Head unit android radio! Long video

[@TheTiredPanda]

Thanks for the update!!!!

[@locorudy626]

No problem 👍

[@duceky1977]

I have this unit, switched vehicles and could not use it in the new one. Which was a bummer because I really miss it. The unit definitely had its issues but despite that was still one of the best around...

[@uptownsfinest1598]

have you tried any video calling apps ? my old android i could use Google meets and whatsapp but with joying for meets it wont go passed the adding phone number part says something went wrong and with whatsapp says I dont have a camera connected

[@locorudy626]

I have honestly not tried that, but I'll try it tomorrow and let you know how it goes. You might be able to bypass the Camara requirement with a USB camera but would need to test that.

[@uptownsfinest1598]

@locorudy626 did you test ? by the way I do have a usb camera 2 of them

[@locorudy626]

@@uptownsfinest1598 I investigated the Google Meet issue and found that my unit experienced the same "something went wrong, please try again" error. It appears to be related to a Google SafetyNet scan problem. This system checks your device to ensure it meets specific security requirements. If it finds that your device doesn’t meet these requirements, it will cause verification issues, flagging the device as unsafe. The likely cause is that the firmware on Snapdragon units hasn’t been fully optimized by Joying, and the bootloader isn’t locked, contributing to the device being flagged as unsafe. Unfortunately, the only solution is to root the head unit and install a Play Integrity fix, which might trick the scan into recognizing the device as safe. I haven't rooted this unit but the px5 units were easy to root I'd imagine these would be simple enough as well. I'd recommend doing some reading on rooting and flashing Google play integrity fix. I'll probably give it a try when I have some time but I've been busy with work right now.

[@MrTranduythien]

Can you show me how to bypass jbl,i got the car same to you

[@locorudy626]

I did not record that process but this video should help you if you have the jbl model. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nWi6lXebjd91r68si=nQ1-b1oBk91wqDaj Here is a link to how the bypass should look on the second amp under the center console. The one below the radio they explain well in the video. ibb.co/47cHtg0 For power you need this harness Metra Electronics 70-8113 You will also need two harnesses of the model number BHA7712 radio replacement harness for the amplifier bypass And a steering wheel control harness to retain steering wheel controls www.ebay.com/itm/266425721999?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=mHqN97oUSk-&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=9B5jr6mDTV6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

[@TheTiredPanda]

Brother, need help. My att sim card is detected by my 11.6 joying. But I have no bars. Any thoughts.

[@locorudy626]

Yes I have a few ideas of what might be happening. If you're showing bars with no signal try messing with the APN settings. If it's showing no SIM card then it might be AT&t blocking the IMEI. I myself couldn't get my AT&t SIM card to work so I had to go to Boost infinite which gave me a SIM card that works on AT&t network and that one was the only one that worked for me.

[@TheTiredPanda]

​@locorudy626 yeah, it shows bars with no bars. It is detecting it. Shows att in network setting and show all apn info. Just no internet, but is is detected. Added new apn but it is same settings that are already there. So how does that boost infinite work?

[@locorudy626]

@@TheTiredPanda have you powered the unit off and back on after installing the SIM and APN. By power off I mean a full restart by going to settings and rebooting that sometimes does it. Also check your antenna location. Boost infinite is an mvno of att and T-Mobile, depending on your area you either get a SIM that works on the T-Mobile network or the at&t network. I got on when they first went live and got a 25 dollar for life for each line. Luckily I got an att sim from them. Pretty much all I did was install the SIM set up the APN and restarted the head unit and had signal, but I did spend like a full year troubleshooting the issue.

[@TheTiredPanda]

Yeah, did that. So Boost infinite is not with att? Cause I have att. Or I get a card from boost and activate the sim with att? Just confused on that. Do you have boost website? I think I am going to the wrong one.
