i dindt notice that dial bug. gonna check it this afternoon. yes, i have the same unit. to flash, ive extracted to a formated micro sd card, just inserted in the card slot and turned on the unit. it will then start the flashing process

---------- Post added at 12:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 PM ----------

the only bug ive noticed in the unit is that the menu has the option to change the led colors(blue, orange and red), but no mather what i choose, they will always stay blue

Dude are you sure we have the same unit? Did you look at the video I posted?? My unit is stuck on the calibration screen during the update. I can't seem to get out of it. Looks like I'm f'd. Is there a key to press to get out of calibration screen?

 

[nosidefcp]

The unit is the same as the video. Try again the flashing process. When the calibration apears, yoi cant press the marked spots on the screen?

Oh wheww!! Scared me there. Yes I see the marked spots. I press them the + goes to the next one. Has 4 numbered spots. But how to continue?! Just stays there.

 

[nosidefcp]

I think you have to press the 4 and thennin the middle. Make a video of the process and post here

some previous links I had for the win ce deck
http://www.lightinthebox.com/window...s-bluetooth-ipod-touch-screen-tv_p827807.html (notice how DIAL is spelled right. On my unit its spelled DAIL)

I attached a word doc as well for a unit that is also pertinent to our unit. Wiring diagram etc.

Still haven't found the article for changing light colors, looking through emails etc. Not 100% it was a definite fix as I wasn't big on the color of my buttons.

Problem is, is I didn't bookmark that. Thought it was in the doc I posted however I believe the information was buried here. http://www.amazon.com/Ouku-In-Dash-Double-DIN-Monitor-6-2-Inch/product-reviews/B00MDXWEWE

Huge amounts of posts to sift through. Would hate you go through it and didn't find it. Still looking though.

Edit: Search for illumination and look for Chiefs posts.

New UI

Hi all
I also have this 2DIN WINCE6 unit with win8 UI. Overall I'm satisfied with unit, except with radio. Its reception is weak and UI is horrible.
I saw on You tube that there is new UI for this unit, that has improved skin for radio with RDS and Radio text.
I got upgrade files from my reseller, but they are identical as the one, that was posted by nosidefcp.
Perharps someone has upgrade files with new UI.
On youtube search for 6.2 inch univesal car dvd player GPS New WIN8 UI Bluetooth RDS radio 2 din car stereo
Thanks

Here you go....found it. It was in a thread on youtube. A review of unit. Hope this helps....

I finally got everything working on my Ouku 6.2" touch screen unit. The backlight issue is because on this unit (unlike most units) you have to hook up the illumination wire of the unit to a switched power source or illumination power source. I have a 2004 GMC Sierra and I tapped in to an illumination power source from my Heat/AC controls. I did it this way so the backlights will only come on when my other dashlights come on. If you tap off your switched power source your backlights will be on as soon as you turn the vehicle on (this is how most after market unit run). As far as the TV tuning goes you have to hook up an additional antenna to the IEC female input which is located next to your FM antenna input. I purchased the correct antenna off eBay for $10. Someo,e asked me my opinion about the durability of this unit and I would have to say you get what you pay for. It has worked great for the past 4 months and if you treat it right should last at least 5 to 7 years. I would say you might want to be extra cautious with this unit and manually turn it off before shutting off your vehicle and manually turn it on after the vehicle is started. This prevents the unit from taking a power surge when starting your vehicle.

In order to get my lights from the radio to come on I tapped into the power from the headlights switch that way when I turn on my lights the radio lights also come on how ever I can't seem to change the color of the lights from the unit. They stay blue only I would like to change them to red some time, think mine might have come damaged from that but oh well.

I have one of these units sitting in the trunk of my car at the moment, as I just upgraded to a quadcore one.
In reference to the blue button lights, you can't change them on the single core units. The feature never worked in those.
The feature works perfectly on the new system. It looks exactly like the unit you have too.
