Then create a new specific KswOverlay for this head unit typ and test it.

That requires a Headunit at the desk alot of work and not just done in an hour, for my i unfortunately don't have the time to do this

Understood. Thanks anyway.

So listening to the internal CD player or internal FM radio will effectively mute your navigation. APK kan be downloaded here.

Ow and I forgot previously: replacing the eventcenter.apk will reset all settings unfortunately. So you will have to update from factory.xml (with client=high-grade inside) to reenable the EVO6 ui and subsequently set all settings again.
Hello, I'm glad you managed to fix the problem. I have the same problem with left-speaker navigation audio. Can you please share this app and describe how to solve it.
Or maybe someone else has an answer to it.

I've unplugged and replugged the cables several times, and finally the screen lights up and android does not start at all. Interestingly, when I put the car in reverse, the screen switches to the reversing camera properly. Has anyone of you encountered this problem?

I have the same problem, look at the previous page of this thread, but never found a solution. Did you?

Android 8

This old navigation has an overheating problem and only worked well with Android Auto. Unfortunately that stopped working on Android 7. Is there a way to upgrade this to Android 8?

Thanks,

Hi, I have PX6 Android 8.1 HeadUnit. I want to upgrade to new Android firmware. But I'm afraid to loose BMW specific modes like ID 4, 5, EVO screens, etc. Anybody knows where these modes stored ? I downloaded a new PX6.zip from net. Maybe the device will be bricked ?

Thanks.

You can't move that files to a new system, the apps installed are system / hardware specific, it wont work properly on new devices.

If you want to ensure to have the choice between UI's you need to buy a KSW Headunit, for details you can check the other Android Headunit threads here.

Hi Kri,

Unfortunately I choose wipe data/factory reset from the menu (Andeoid 8.1 PX6 Unit). I didn't copy factory.xml, cartypes.xml files to USB flash before wipe and reset. The unit booted without BMW UI, just android icons (apps I mean). In factory settings, I chose BMW EVO 7 and EVO 7 UI was ok at first. I think before factory reset there was no option for EVO 7. I knew that my HU doesn't support EVO7 UI.

Then I begun to experience booting problems. Sometimes it boots, sometimes only black screen, no startup logo (at this time BMW orijinal side is ok, but when I switch the android side, it shows black screen). Engine on to off, wait some minutes, and again press ignition and it boots randomly with EVO 7 UI or black screen.

I thought that this is related with factory.xml and cartypes.xml files and then I found these files from the internet and copied to SDCARD OEM folder. I deleted EVO 7 string form factory.xml file. But ıt is always shown in factory menu. Maybe the root cause of the problem is unsupported UI 7. I can not get rid of this UI.

Can you help me ? Thx.

Very interesting way to answer to other people who a searching for help, maybe you should think first of about you do write instead of being rude to people who do their first post in here.
Not all people do have the same demand, your comment is very narrow minded :

It's actually a frame that can be sent from android with hex bytes 0x70 and 0x13 and then 0x00 to enable or 0x01 to disable auto dimming.

There must be a corresponding settings apk somewhere in a ROM that controls the setting. This means that the Chinese do listen to their customers ;-)

I still patched the firmware for everyone who doesn't have the corresponding settings apk.

They made a mistake though. If you disable the auto dimming while your lights are on, the brightness will never return to 100%. (as night_enabled is never processed anymore). So if you have a new unit with the setting in the settings app: Do not turn off auto dimming while the lights are ON.
I did an update out of my curiosity. I didn't know this problem before. Going back to the oldest version doesn't change anything. The radio works fine but is very dark. I bought SD662 6/128GB but I'm trying to fix old Android 7.

hello, I have a problem in a bmw e87 px3 with android 7.1, one day when starting the car I changed from ID6 to ID5 and not only that... my bluetooth doesn't work.
I have tried to update with the file that comes on the first page of this post and also with the file that the manufacturer has sent me and everything remains the same.
They tell me that it may be something from the original operating system and that there would be no way to make it work again.
I do not believe that due to a software failure, the android screen should be thrown away and that is why I ask you for help.
Is it possible to reset it to factory settings?

thank you

Ηello everyone
last november i bought a head unit xtrons SNAPDRAGON 662 6GB+128GB for E81
i installed by my own with no problems except the i drive control that included inside and it was replaced
A week ago the HU stucked in boot logo
no apps added by me ,only spotify
i did the reset from the back hole with no results
i spoke with the seller and send me updates to do ,but still not responding at all when i put the usb
The weird thing now is that i was on ride yesterday and before reach my destination the HU starts working suddenly....

My question now is if i should do those updates or remain in same,now mine is v1.8.6,they send me V2.4.2 and if cannot completed ,then try first with V2.3.8)
Also they told me to name the file “Ksw-Q-Userdebug_OS_v-ota-reset-data_factory” but in first page i saw for SD662
Ksw-R-M600_OS_v-ota-reset-data_factory.zip
what about that?
,

Hello guys!

I have three questions:
1) is it possible to make screen on (same, as normal) without ignition? Without ignition radio works etc, but I don't see anything. I would like to use android without switching all modules on....
2) is it possible to use phone with android, but with BMW microphones? With android app?
3) anyone saw possibility to use car data on dashboard widget? Trip information like time, distance and mpg?

Edit:
Snapdragon unit on Android 12, with 8GB and 1080p

Regards,
Leszek

1280x480 android 7.1 PX3 unit with error

I have a problem on my Dasaita HA7015-K720 BMW Android 7.1 head unit, the previous owner have updated the unit with a 8.1 android update that i dont think worked properly, because my google services have never worked since i bought it. I have been trying to get the firmware from Dasaita, but the download link is dead and i get no reply from them on their websde, facebook or on Aliexpress. Its a 1280x480 10.25" Bmw E70 X5 CCC head unit with a PX3 Android 7.1 system with 2GB Ram and 32GB storage. Do anyone know what the problem might be regarding the non working google services error prompt thats coming all the time on the screen? I can not enter google apps as i only get a error prompt when i do, so the app side of the unit is non-working at all. Just using it to see the OEM screen system as its the only think thats working properly..

Link to the headunit: https://de.aliexpress.com/i/32912051...yAdapt=glo2deu

I noticed that not all audio is routed through the DAC though.
e.g. phone calls and AV-IN/DTV audio still goes out as analogue via the harness (also available via the harness Audio-Out 3.5mm socket).

Are you experiencing the same issue?

If anyone else has this problem with their own DAC, let me know.
If someone has managed to overcome this problem, let me know.
Your response is of great value to me.

PX3-023042bGS-CIC-HW7-software update

Hi @RedErik @Kri,

As you're a master of this, I was wondering if you could help!

For some reason, the head unit of my E88 reset to factory settings, and the Bluetooth is not functioning anymore. Additionally, the main interface looks different now; I assume it was downgraded to ID5, and I had ID6 before. It would be great if you could help me and send me the latest firmware to update. I had a look at the first page but am not sure which one is compatible with my device and what needs to be updated to fix my issue. My understanding is there are updates for MCU, IMG, factory.xml, and update APK file filter.txt.

I have found the below link with the updated MCU, but it didn't solve the issue: MCU Update Link.

Also, from your link, I'm not sure if this (ID7) is compatible with my device: Firmware Link.

Additionally, I'm interested in customizing the themes. Is that compatible with my device? I'm happy to pay if someone is keen to customize the theme for me.

The current firmware details are:

023042bGS-CIC-HW7-190118 [B1280_170235]
FRAMEWORK: px3-USERDEBUG 7.1.1 nmf26x ENG.WORK2.20181124.154049
Android Version: 7.1.1
APPVer: 2019010501_1280x480_870A
Nandflash: 22.11G/26.88G
RAM: 2G
UUID: 010E6A88-3BFD-00B6-0000-000100000A88
Thank you so much in advance!
