I check the new version (v81), and the first contact is bad. The GPS doesnt works, and it keeps the problem that I can't log to my google account.
Now, I downloaded again the firmware from mediafire and now works, the GPS and google logging. Perhaps I have a corrupt image.

I should to do more test.

Installed and tested. I can say it is more snapier, touch is more responsive. The new version introduces a new theme with stations switch buttons, which makes our life easier. Improved radio audio quality. The rest is the same.

Question: Is it possible to change picel density or resolution, as I got updated from seller rom, it somehow got bigger resolution and everything got small?

I don't think so because it's a zip file and the bin file is an archive, too.

Nevertheless great to hear it works, now.
I don't know, but google drive had problems, I have the two images, of I have time, i will compare the files.

But know it works.

Yesterday I installed a new head unit in the passat of my wife, and this works perfectly, I dont update the head unit, the firmware is FEB23.

Never change a running system. Especially if you don't want to destroy the WAF - Woman Acceptance Factor

Question, has anyone had problems with Netflix? I can neither update nor reinstall it, since it is integrated into the system...

Mam Junsuna V1 Plus z oprogramowaniem sprzętowym, które przekazuję na zdjęciu. Pobrałem, zainstalowałem v81, cały proces, ale go nie bierze. Co może się zdarzyć?
Tę tak mam po wgraniu sprawdź w innych ustawieniach systemu

Sprawdź czy pendrive jest widziany przez system w jakim programie np. total commander np
Następnie ustaw system w opcjach programisty, aby zainstalować go po ponownym uruchomieniu.

Hi @TorstenH , I was wondering is there a way to change resolution of this unit, or to make ir somehow bigger?
That should be possible via adb.

First you should check if you can establish an adb connection:

For anyone who is into hacking and adding functionality into the software (via modding MainUI.apk) the latest version v81 they have done something so that the apk can no longer decompile properly and you wont be able to mod anymore. v61 still works fine in this instance.

Interesting hint because I never seen a modded MainUI here on xda.
My attempts to decompile the apk (< 81) not resulted in code which can be compiled again.

You can decompile it using apktool 2.5.0+ and recompile it again quite effectively. You can do some interesting stuff with this such as sending messages to the CAN to update your instrument cluster display to show useuful stuff etc, Or start your own services etc.

The way I do it is to compile my own service in android studio with added functionality i want and insert the dex code to launch the service into MainUI class, then add my own dex from android studio into the apk and boom.

I figured out how to let the magic happen

But I'm wondering where are your modded MainUIs available?!

They are not available, since Ive only modded it specifically for my car. However if you are interested in doing it I can give you assistance in greater detail let me know. Also, it would be great to see if you can get v81 apk to decompile but Ive had no luck with the latest apktools- it throws exception trying to generate the dex (smali).

    Hello guys, first I want to say thanks to everybody sharing their knowledge!
    In my case I have a Ford Kuga (Escape) 2015 and a Junsun 6/128 GB MTK 825X and got hard times to setup everything correctly.
    I thought maybe my notes are helpful for others.

    Bad things first.
    Whats annoying me:
    For the keys in the middle I have sometimes no backlight (even in the evening). When rebooting (Via TorstenH's apk) or using Code 4 in Factory Code prompt, it works again; my guess is that in FastBoot / SleepMode the clock is may not correctly synced with CAN Bus (or Ford "SYNC" system).


    May good to know:

    Android Head Unit Fitting

    There was always a gap between the Android Radio Unit Frames and the rest of the other parts of interrior, which annoyed me.
    Luckily I read a comment on a youtube video of android radio installation on my car. The video was partly crap, but the comment gave me the correct hint:
    With a dremel I had to cut some interrior parts, to make the frames kind of fit (not fun work, but ok).
    Additional note: Even if put back the old radio unit, it will not be a problem because the original parts will also cover the cuts, so that was a good option for me.


    Bluetooth
    It seems like - if you set up selection of CAN configuration correctly - the Ford SYNC stuff now will be available again:
    So e.g. if your device was connected before installation of Android Head Unit to Ford Sync, It will be connected again after installation. This caused a lot of unwanted issues for me.
    So it is may better to delete SYNC from bluetooth from your phone.

    External Mic
    The shipped mic was crap. bought a Blaupunkt for about 15 €. (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B07CC9R8S4?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details)
    Also had to desolder the microphone (my JUNSUN had no cables for microphone, so "new design" of the board). Even no problem for me desoldering the very first time in my life. Now internal mic will not interfere with external one. At least my wife says that she can understand me better.

    GPS
    My Android Head Unit was shipped with a small GPS Mouse. But then I noticed that my car already has a "FAKRA" cable (original), which seemed to be the GPS antenna (because the connector had small blue parts).
    Bought a FAKRA to SMA Antenna Adapter and have about 6 sattelites more than with the GPS mouse.

    USB Stick /Firmware Updates
    On my macbook I used Disk Utility to format a 64 GB usb stick to FAT32. The firmware update did not work out due to not finding files (can't remember the exact error, sry).
    I checked it aferwards on windows and noticed it was not FAT32 but exFAT - so macOS lied to me ;-)

    Then I noticed that Windows did not allow me to format the stick to FAT32. I think it is because it's storage is >32 GB
    So used an old 16GB stick and formatted it in Windows and added necessary files, then the Firmware Update was no problem, but took quite some time:

    Imho plan about 25 minutes for firmware update. I took the risk and did it in the car, but decided to at least move the car to have less battery drain while doing the firmware upgrade not risking bricking the Unit by sudden death of battery.
    Also I noticed that the update itself was tilted/rotated by 90 degree against clock, which first scared me.
    After the bootlogo popped up the bootanimation took a loooooong time and got me nervous again, but after about 10 - 15 minutes my home screen popped up.

    RADIO (WIP)
    FM Radio is ok, but not as good as original radio. I learned that the original Ford Radio had a "Dual" Receiver, which the Android head unit has not.
    Also my Ford Kuga has 2 antennas: One is already active / has power on it (currently connected to Android Head Unit) and the other antenna is passive.


    Upcoming steps:
    • Install/Configure TorstenH's AppSwitcher App
    before that I think I have use Some Logging App to find the correct KeyCodes, right?

    Hi all,
    I tried to install the latest firmware from post #1.
    I've tried to put the bin file on a USB stick.

    But sadly enough after inserting the USB stick nothing happens.

    Are there maybe other options to start the update?
    Doh forgot to put the .upd file on the usb drive

    There is a risk and you do it at your own risk.


    Highest because all the versions are just Android 9.

    Compare the USB wire sockets on the back of your head unit.
    Just completed the update, everything went super fine! The system is perfect now. The AutoLink app works great, even wirelessly! Android Auto starts in a few seconds and everything is great. Also the new interface seems really good. To everyone who has a Roadanvi F10, you may try to update with the Junsun V1 PRO attached in the open post of this thread, and everything should work out of the box!

    Don't forget to install AppSwitcher:

    Yes, if you habe the original fw.

    It is available but you need to wait because too many people are downloading it.
    Thanks I'll wait

    I lost interest almost instantly so I did not complete the setup process, if it can be called so. So I can't really answer your question, I'm sorry
    @blak24 Hi I succed installing the V1 Pro v94 on my Roadanvi (thanks to you!). Everything seems to be ok includding car info and steering wheel control. Carletter says is not activated but Alink works in wired mode. Not working wirelessly. I changed Hotspot name and password and done the obvious (maybe). What have you done to get it working?

    Hello, i just received the new interface of android auto on my junsun V1 PRO. The issue is not from the APK or the Radio Junsun, just need to wait the activation from the google server.

    Hi there, by mistake I removed the Autolink app. I can't find it in the Playstore. Has anyone an idea where I can download the latest APK file? And does anyone know how I can reboot the radio as there is no option available?

    All the best
    I extracted the APK from the latest firmware. I have no idea if it will work or not.
