The second problem is that the loading of the camera application takes too long. From the moment of shifting into reverse it takes 3-4 seconds, and in my opinion it should take 1 second
Did you manage to deal with that delay?
I hope you will come back to the forums and reply me :)

@DexterMorganNL you wrote that delay is inevitable but actually it's not. I had MTCE device previously and reverse image was instant (and I know that's different device). Here it's about 3-4 second which makes the reverse camera useless.

Yes a delay, while starting the engine: not while the engine is running, than there is no delay between going into reserve and the camera. The delay is because the headunit needs to wake from sleep.

There's no difference in my case. When I put the reverse with engine running, 3 seconds between reverse screen is showing.

Also was anybody able to install updates for those integrated app store apps? Like canbus, protocol etc.? When I try to install them, I get "app wasn't installed".

Only the Carlink, the others I didn't try to install and no that app store show some error. So it's not working somehow.

For the record: I was dumb :D I assumed that if there's no camera attached, head unit would go into reverse mode as quick as if camera was attached (but with black screen only).

So when I thought "well, let's try to connect the camera" and I've found that image is showing instantly.

Hello! I am a new user and I have a question. Where can I submit a translation correction request? For example, the Settings feature. There are very big gaps in my language. Thank you for your answer. I have a model M300s Navifly.

    Yay! I did a thing!

    With a bit of dutch courage, I had a go at the modification & although it was a right bugger to do, I got there in the end. I made a video for others to see, I've set it as unlisted on youtube for now because I noticed an error I appear to have made twice. I said earlier that the spacializer didn't work & I was wrong. I only noticed when I watched the video I made that when I tested the HDMI I used the "surround" option in the mixer. For the other apps I used the "field "option. I must have made the same mistake when I tested on my workbench, because I've been & checked & when using the "field" option it works fine. So, mod works 100% as far as I know.

    Here's the vid for those who are interested:

    With a bit of dutch courage, .....
    Nice you fixed it.

    However, being Dutch I always feel slightly insulted ;) when someone mentions "Dutch courage".
    So here a little history why Dutch courage is actually "English calm down and reduce fear for".
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dutch_courage (the short, more positive version)
    And why the English should be thankful for their gin.

    Anyone encountered a problem with START STOP car function not working after replacing stock navi with M500S? Nothing has changed on my car except this unit. As far as power connections are made everything looks ok. Unit powers off with car (standby) and after 48h it goes into full shutdown.
    I've checked my car manual and none of conditions mentioned in manual are met for start stop to stop functioning. There is no warning on dashboard that function is malfunctioning.
    I saw one option in navi factory settings "Automatic start stop" and I tried with ON and OFF, nothing changes. Car is Suzuki Vitara manual.
    Maybe you have some battery issue. START STOP often stops working when battery voltage drops under 60% or lower, depend from a car. I'm guessing you spent quite a bit of time in a car with not running engine while you were installing and testing the radio. If the voltage drops below a certain level, the car starts to turn off the consumers of electricity, but the car continues to start normally. I assume you have an AGM or EFB battery in your car. At least it should have it according to the START STOP function.

    Hi guys,

    I just need help in knowing how to connect the reverse camera so that it displays on the HU when the gear is shifted to reverse.
    Hope this helps....

    To add to both of @louforgiveno 's questions: What is unusably slow? What are your down/upload speeds? "unusable" is a very subjective statement.
    Thanks for the responses. I was getting around .08 Mbps down, .5 up. I ended up doing a reset on the headunit and it works much better now.

    Looks like the fan power.
    To tell the truth, that is what i supposed and connected it to the only fitting connector on when of the wire harnesses coming out of the device, BUT my fan never turns on, sooooo maybe im wrong.
    As well as connecting the fan to the harness you also have to switch it on in the UI. In Settings go to Device/Sound/Amp OnOff set to On to have the fan on. Looks like there isn't proper integration for the fan so they just use the switchable amp power output to drive the fan.

    Very clear, many thanks.
    Only one more question, navifly models seems doen't have cooling fan in the back. Is it suggested to have it or not?
    It is definitely suggested especially if you live in (sub-)tropical areas. The fan is really quite and keeps the temperature about 20 degrees lower (in my case).

    And with regard to "UI looks different": I just created a modded firmware based on the latest Mekede in combination with the latest core/kernel I could find, that contains all 11 launchers that are available for the several FYTs around. I currently use Nova Launcher. My current Mekede firmware (build date 18 September 2021) contains 3 launchers: 2 of them look very nice, but that is only eye candy. Real functionality is not so great. I will simply test all 11 and might get back to Nova again. I will also test if my modded firmware is "sharable". I know simply how to overcome issues, so I want to test first.

    I also use something else than the "twipe_all" or "twipe_data", that removes everything (all) or all data including your 3rd party installed apps including their settings. And only because FYT still doesn't have a good update protocol for their own apps after 6+ years.
    My "post upgrade" action is only removing all FYT related data/cache/profiles.
    But first test if that really works ;)

    Excuse me for the little OT. By connecting a smartphone to the Navifly/Mekede with Bluetooth and sharing the address book with it, does it remain in memory with the device? That is, let me explain better, if another smartphone is connected will it have access to the address book of the first smartphone?
    Hello there. I've already test it. Me and my girlfriend usually travel together so I have to choose between her phone and mine (FYT unit only connects to 1 phone at a time). So she's connected and all her contacts appear (and I store it) and as soon as I connect my phone the list is swapped and I cannot see her list anymore.
    It's a good thing. And other fact is that the unit first pairing is always to the last paired phone during switch off (assuming that that phone bluetooth is enabled).

    I finally received my Mekede uis7862 unit for my Octavia 2015, but it doesn't fit correctly. It needs to be pushed in and "click" tight. That is the system VW/Skoda/Seat/Audi use after 2013. That doesn't work and therefore it can easily fall out of the dashboard.
    I did a test drive this afternoon and as such the unit functions fine, but the fact that it is completely loose and can fall out of the dash is an extreme annoyance after having waited so long.

    EDIT: And the 5GHz WiFi reception is a big deception. I have to park my car almost inside my nearest WiFi Mesh AP, while I have a perfect MESH WiFi network.
