A: The factory settings under password 126 are the fourth tab.

AT:Does Bluetooth and WiFi module work badly?
A: Check if you have a paired Bluetooth + WiFi module, which, if you turn on these functions at the same time, does not work well. Also, on some devices, it is noted that when the “Multimedia audio device” switch in the Bluetooth profile of the radio on the Phone is turned off, WiFi speeds up.

AT:How to enable the developer menu?
Рћ: Readhereandhere.

AT:Why can't I connect an external Bluetooth keyboard, button, volume knob, etc.? After all, the radio tape recorder sees the device?
A: The BT module of the radio is trimmed and can work ONLY with two things: 1. An OBD adapter and 2. A speakerphone for the phone.

AT:Can I connect additional headrest monitors?
A: There is an AV-out tulip on GU, but this does not mean that the hardware head supports this function. To do this, the corresponding chip should be soldered on the motherboard. If you have a DVD drive, then the picture will be only from a DVD. If the GU hardware supports the transfer of video to additional monitors - there will be a full screen duplication.

DFirmware
First of all: Everything you do with your device, you do at your own peril and risk.

The device firmware consists of two parts: "Android firmware" and "MCU firmware"
Before updating the "Android firmware", make sure that the version of the processor (PX5) and android (6,8,9) firmware matches your GU, then you can choose firmware from any manufacturer.
You can only update your own MCU!

Firmware from manufacturers can be found in the Yandex.Disk cloud service at the link below or use the mods in the sections.Modification of software and decorations for GU PX5 Android 8.0.0
Modification of software and decorations for GU PX5 Android 6.0.1


Attention . Firmware released after mid-May 2019 has a protection in itself that does not allow installing the firmware until mid-May, that is, under build (downgrade), you get a bootloop. Read more here and here

A few words about overheating and cooling
Disclaimer:
The problem with overheating is typical mainly for PX5 processor boards with 4GB RAM. The problem of overheating itself can be associated with both the installation site of the PG, the architectural layout, the assembly and the quality of the materials used, and with the installed or used software / MCU / Firmware, connected peripherals. But all this is in any case individually. Someone uses it as it is, does not measure the temperature, does not make any additional modifications to the cooling and does not encounter any problems from overheating, but there are also those who actually encounter the problem of overheating and this section of the header is created for this.

Now detail:
Rockchip PX5 processor limit
temperature of 125 В° C, upon reaching which the processor should automatically shut down, resulting in a sudden reboot of the device. When the processor reaches a temperature of 90 В° C, throttling comes into play (protection against overheating by
lowering the clock frequency on the processor cores) and as a result, a drop in performance occurs and the system may hang.

Check whether the thermal interface of your PG copes with heat removal under high processor load using the programCPU Throttling Test

Rep: (1)
Bought a new tape recorder. This miracle came to me $ 228. What did I get? I do not really understand, but looking at the description and characteristics in the cap, it seems to me that my radio tape recorder is slightly different. Why
CPU architecture - ARM Cortex-A53
cpu model - 8 Core ARMv8 Processor (VFPv4, NEON) (if you understood correctly, 64 percent, and cores of 1200 MHz each)
graphic cpu - PowerVR Rogue G6110
GPU version - OpenGL ES 3.1 build 1.5@3830101
pixel density - 240 dpi
RAM - 2000mb
Android SDK - 23
Kernel version - Linux version 3.10.0
The test for antitu 6.3.3 shows 35617
First impressions are positive. Like the interface. Initially very pleasant and seemed convenient to me. When properly connected, that is, through the ignition lock, the radio tape recorder with the ignition off consumes 0.01 A, when it is first turned on it loads for some time, maybe 20 seconds - 30 seconds. drops from 1 amp to 0.01 amps in about 30 seconds, after the load has dropped to 0.01 amps, we turn on the ignition and the radio tape recorder turns on instantly! and starts with the last action !!! What a great pleasure! ) if the music is turned on then the music starts to play, if the video was turned on in the YouTube, then the YouTube is loaded, and the video is paused at that moment which turned off the ignition! )
Maybe it's bullshit and little things, but I really like it)) What to say) Cool)) If you have questions, ask, I will try to answer as much as possible! )
