None of the sellers of these Chinese head units support their customers.
You have a link to your device on the sellers homepage?

The uint was purchased via amazon and the support is from the supplier in europe ... they refused to help by supplying the original firmware. I think they are only a front end distributor for OEM white box products .. and this particular combination of processor, board and SOC is just not showing up on any of the searches I have done ,,, I almost gt the feeling that it is a tabnlet hidden inside a car audio box ... the hardware sun8iw15p1 points to it being an A50 SOC ... ( https://linux-sunxi.org/Allwinner_SoC_Family ) ... which fits the spec reported by AIDA64 ( https://linux-sunxi.org/A50 ) ... but I'm still no closer to finding any kind of solution .. I really think I need to root the device and tinker with the formware .. but I'm not going to do that without an original ROM to use as a rescue/backup.

The system spec from the firmware sees it as an A23 chipset .. but it's a 4 core, so it could also be an A33 (pin compatible with A23) but that would normally expect the hardware to be sun8iw5p1 ... It's all so very messy

and thanks for talking an interest @TorstenH .. I really appreciate your patience.

Try to find Bluetooth in the settings application. Please note that the settings application appears in the language you set. E.g. if you set German the app will appear as 'Einstellungen'.
I don't have the bluetooth option in the settings. My settings look like this.

This is exactly this unit, only the older edition with 1GB of RAM and android 4.44. I already had it mounted in the car when I bought the car as used.

Are you sure these updates are for my android unit? Their products look different than for my Audi a4 b8. My unit is designed specifically for this vehicle. I don't have the courage to try to install this updates, I don't want to damage my unit. But thank you for your efforts to advise.

Hi
I'm using this launcher on my PX5 unit and like it so far:D
But I'm having small issue with the auto brightness control. It's working fine but only in the launcher itself, when I choose an app through the launcher, the screen switches to full brightness when oppening the app. That's pretty anoying. E.g. I'm using myTuner as the radio app so it will open when I press the radio button. But it opens with full brightness even though the brightness is low in the launcher:rolleyes:
Anyone with the same issue???

Btw. I'm on the trial version ;)

Which type of brightness mode is set? If you use the overlay mask it can't work for other apps and dims only Agama itself.

Hello,

I have this unit: YUNTX Android 10 Autoradio - [4G+64G] - [Integrado CarPlay/Android Auto/DSP/GPS] - Octa Core (https://www.amazon.es/dp/B08XM7C5BR?tag=nextauto-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 ). In BT it appears as AWC5847

I have installed a new launcher (Agama) in the car radio unit, because it is a more powerful and configurable launcher that the original that comes with the unit.

And i have 2 problems (in fact, one problem in 2 applications).

I have installed the Agama app and I cannot use neather the analog radio FM nor the Phone whit Agama. If i assign Radio FM application to the Agama radio button, when i push the button nothing happens and the FM radio of my stereo car device is not started. The same with Phone application.
It seems like if Agama cannot manage the built in applications of my DIN2 stereo device, only the Android aplications.

I have a shortcut for radio and another shortcut for phone in applications wardrobe, but if i assign it to one of the launcher button, it does not do nothing, the radio or Phone is not openned.
If i push my steering wheel radio or Phone button, it works; if i push the button of the original launcher that comes with the unit, it works, but it does not work with the launcher. It is like the original launcher block the radio and the Phone, unless i have put the new launcher as the default launcher.

If i download an alternative application (like Navradio+ or True Dialer), it is a partial solution, because the application starts with the launcher button, but i cannot manage it with the steering wheel buttons, like if the steering wheel buttons for radio and Phone were Block by the system launcher application.

1. Is it a normal problem? How can i solve it?
2. How can i manage the car stereo unit sytem builtin applications (basically, analog radio and phone) with Agama launcher, like i manage the others applications?
3. I dont know if i have root access to the unit. But if not, please could you tell me how can I have root access to the car unit?

Thank you.

Hello friend, I have a possible solution. On some radios, agama may have problems with the pre-installed applications. That's why agama has a pack of shortcuts that may possibly solve your problem. Here I leave the pack, try it and I hope it can help you. Similarly, on its official page there are instructions for this problem. All the best!

Since updates of Agama Launcher and/or Poweramp, the latter doesn't function the way it used to do. Before I just had to press the music player button under the clock. Now I have to launch the Poweramp app first before I can use it. A bit anoying :) Are there more users with the same issue? And is there a solution?

    Does agama launch an app at startup by default, or is that the head unit? I would like to have the radio quit starting at startup. I don't remember it doing that before I switched to agama. I couldn't find any settings that controlled that.

    Agama has a new feature, which can autostart the selected applications. Maybe you switched radio app accidently into this "autostart mode".
    In Aagama apps tab if you long press on any app's icon you can select the autostart option. I hope this helps.

    Hi guys! I am very pleased with agama car launcher! Definitely one of the best car launchers. What makes it the best I think is it's simplicity and big buttons that are easy to hit while driving. And the middle widget.
    I have some issues though:

    1. I have a problem with Play Store loading on top of launcher on starting the car. I have enabled always on top but not working.

    2. Like many others report Google maps not working in widget. This sucks, but I have successfully using sygic now.

    3. I would like better Spotify integration with bottom music player. A play button to resume playing when starting car without having to open Spotify would be awesome.

    4. This one is more of a feature request I guess: it might be cool to be able to have OBD2 widgets in the middle circle, to show custom car data.

    Hi!! Поздравляю с работой мой любимый Launcher. Если вы позволите мне, я хотел бы сделать два предложения: я мог бы представить новый логотип VW и, если возможно, добавить радио виджет. большое спасибо

    Google Translation:
    "Hi !! Congratulations on my favorite Launcher. If you allow me, I would like to make two suggestions: I could introduce a new VW logo and, if possible, add a radio widget. many thanks"

    Please show your enthousiasm in English :D

    were you able to do this and if so how?
    - Download apk file of Agama (e.g. from apk pure)
    - Open the file with 7zip on your PC or on your mobile phone with MiXplorer.
    - Replace one of the existing logos (png files in assets\logo folder. Choose the same filename as one of the existing files.
    - Sign the apk with zip signer https://zipsigner.de.malavida.com/android/
    - Install the apk on your head unit
    - Select the car brand you replaced the logo for in Agama settings.
    - Ask the Agama devs to add the selection of a custom logo as new feature.
