QUOTE(yuan415 @ Dec 2 2020, 11:08 PM) any recommendation for android player with built in 360 camera? looking for high spec one. tried TSA brand android player 32+2 with 360 camera, cost me nearly 3k with installation but still giving me problems the system itself keep pop up saying the storage is full, in fact i never download anything and i check in the setting still have plenty of storage. so called high end player but sucks, end up return back to the shop thats the reason dun get all built in. 360 cam need a lot graphic processing, while android itself already using some of the resources already, so dun hope it will work like charm.... and 1 day later, ur 350 cam got issue, you gonna need to replace the whole this also... story of 3 in 1 printer vs standalone printer and scanner....

Nowadays, many android head unit in the market are using rubbish processor. the spec may be 4Gb ram 32/64gb storage but it's slow response due to cheap processor.. especially when loading power hungry google map.

If I import a HU from other countries, do I need to apply for SIRIM?

QUOTE(king_kenny @ Jun 17 2020, 06:59 PM) i just replaced my stocked HU to 9inch Android HU, by some unknown China brand, true 2GB RAM 32GB rom, Android 9. RAM checked and verified by CPU-X and MemoryInfo app. Cost me RM365. So far the radio reception is clear, and can play netflix, astro on the go, etc. But, just like handphone, this thing after 1-2 year need to be replaced bcos of OS and app compatibility, so imho no need to spent so much on it. thats good price. where did u get it from?

Android hu seems to not be able to pump enough juice for components speaker

recently bought an S brand HU at shopee, the top end 6gb one. Sendiri DIY install, my car is preve. but the previous installer help me install 1st HU they cut off the socket and sendiri rewire. So i cannot use the plug and play socket.
So sendiri splice everything and do the wiring follow the proton HU plug diagram and also the socket. 1st time start can run, but later test audio no sound from right side. then suddenly the soud jumbled then turned off. cannot turn on back edi. i tot is cable loose because wiring not good, but then test the socket got power.
Then bring back open up, saw the power management IC fried and a resistor beside it. Not sure is how it was fried, because i use external ampflier for my front and subwoofer. Now sendiri source IC and resistor to repair. Will post again after repair. The shop guy not very eager to honor the warranty, because he say i sendiri pasang and my wiring might salah. Altho he guide me the wiring, and i follow everything but still the thing burned.
Moral of the story: buy from reputable people with good support.

Even with canbus connection, I think its not for controlling but rather operation input display, such as door signal, aircon, etc

Quick question. have some left overs old school ICE amps (RF x 2) and speakers. Would like to give the car stereo a refresh. Would these sub 1k android players be able to match the sound of traditional cd player brands like sony kenwood etc Would be mostly using spotify/YTmusic and waze/google maps. So i will need 2 amp output.. I sincerely doubt if there is a true DSP in these price range..more of just equaliser.
