- this is an update of my experience with the Joying headunit mostly focusing on the issues I've encountered in my time using the headunit. Hope you find it helpful or informative, if you have any questions please ask I'll do my best to answer.

You have to go into your headunit settings to set whatever launcher you want as a default launcher with nova launcher you can do that thru nova launcher settings. I have a joying headunit and never experienced issues like that for almost 2 years.
I have the same radio in a 05 sienna. I love it overall. I used to compete in car audio, I've ran toslink out to processors from high end Sony es head unit. Without tons of preparation and work it's not even worth it. It's a solid unit otherwise, one of the better Android units I've owned
I've been planning this for 2 years now. So far I love the unit but unfortunately the 4g not working for me is a bummer. So far I'm about 50-60$ in the hole just trouble shooting it. Another reason why I haven't moved forward with the system installation. I just bought a Joying 10.1 unit from ebay for 150 hope the 4g works on that one, unfortunately it is not the snapdragon version so band support will be limited but as long as it holds connection it will do I'll search for a more compatible network. My high output alternator should be done by next week and should be in by the middle of July once that's in DSP and door speaker setup will follow.
I have the same unit in my 76 Regal and am about to buy the non snapdragon 8gb/128gb version to compare in my 72 Blazer. I have been generally happy though with Joying. Better for the money than spending much more $$$ on the bigger brands. I prefer to buying off of Amazon though.
Yeah they've been pretty solid till this unit. This is my 3rd Joying headunit. My 6th android headunit, I bought a Dasiata and 2 Alibaba units, overall Joying is well rounded for the price. The problem I see forthcoming is that vehicle tech is advancing fairly fast and I expect there to be larger screen radios that will be more affordable that might shred that gap. Joying is not advancing features and options enough to stay ahead in my point of view. There's android auto boxes that run full android when connected through whatever headunit supports it, pretty much any decent stereo with 4v of output and android auto should fare better than this unit in terms of sound which will also come with piece of mind of domestic warranty.
I just ordered the non snap dragon one. Is the snap dragon one better? Do they both have the same ui?
@@rct0022 The user interface is different, there is also proof that the non snapdragon version is slightly better in terms of performance. That being said, it's a radio so expecting it to play the latest high profile games or render video should not be a realistic expectation of yours. It does great on app to app function and multimedia and navigation which is what I mostly use it for. Some apps need to be side loaded but that's easy to do. The reason for me choosing this unit over the non snapdragon is it has better support for the US network bands, which ironically didn't work properly on my unit.
@@locorudy626 Appreciate the feedback! I’m looking forward to installing it and seeing how responsive it runs. I’m coming from an older head unit(2008) so I’m hoping this is a great upgrade for me. Mainly excited for wireless carplay.
Hi, did you end up getting both units and do any comparisons at all? Trying to decide between the snapdragon and non snapdragon 10.1 unit. Thanks for any feedback in advance!
You should do a factory reset then don't assign any navigation to the stock launcher leave it alone then run whatever aftermarket launcher and use whatever navigation app you want in the aftermarket launcher only.
Thanks for the feedback! I'll give it a try before I take it out as it's days are numbered almost done fabricating my Samsung tab s7 dash mod
@@locorudy626 post a video for the samsung mod. keen to see how u did it
@@tids2k been working on the electrical for my sound system, as I am not running a radio everything else needs to be ready to go, so the tablet retrofit is falling behind. Hopefully in the next month I’ll get more progress going. So far I have done the fiberglass layer which I recorded but want to do a full video of the build to compile before posting a bunch of 5 minute videos.
Do you know about any anti-glare screen protector?
I have an idea, if you want to also use waze you can install a crappy navigatio app and set that as the launcher navigation app and then you can also use waze
Yes but so far the only application options compatible with that interface is google and waze
Hi, how much ram used while playing youtube and maps in the same time? How much RAM do you recommend?
2.41gb out of 3.51 of total usable ram or 68%
@@locorudy626 thank you 👍
Is it better to use 6 or 8 gig ram.. latest? Or 4gb is enough
You have to hard reset to remove apps that won’t remove
Hey and I got on my side view camera some big letters in the middle how can I take those out too thanks
Not sure if this is camera related or radio. What letters are displayed? Also check Factory settings
Do you know which model number this is ? Do you have a link where you purchased it from?
Here is the link, i will disclose that the may update has a few glitches in the software. This is also an older snapdragon chipset since the release of this unit there is a snapdragon 665 version from other manufacturers this is the snapdragon 625, Just FYI.

How did you change the launcher? Im trying to use nova but it won't give me the option to flick it over.
You need to install Nova it should prompt you to set it as default launcher. Set it as default launcher the hit home if launcher 4 and nova launcher pop out at the same time chose nova launcher and hit always. if this doesn't work try doing it by clearing default settings on launcher 4 the oem launcher, go to apps look for launcher 4 look for default settings and clear them. Make sure you have nova launcher installed

Bro I can’t program my steering wheel do you know how so I can put some widgets on my digital speedometer like music thanks
What vehicle do you have? If you want to add widgets you will have to use a different launcher interface ( in example nova launcher)
What vehicle is this on? I have a 06 tundra that the dash looks somewhat the same so maybe it will fit
This is a 2003 Toyota Sequoia. If your tundra is the 4 door double cab it will be the same. The radio wiring might vary depending on if you have the JBL stereo or the base stereo but your fitment can look like this. Do note that I did do some custom modifications to bring the front portion of the radio forward which I kind of show in this video linked here. If you are thinking of going with this radio I'd watch the entire video if you just want to see my home Depot metal bracket extension skip to 4:55.

And here's another photo, technically just disassemble the front portion of the radio and with some solid steel brackets drill and extend the screen out. You will need to measure how far out the screen sits out from that front plate panel then install the radio with all the trim and measure from the front panel to the edge of the face of the dash kit and do some math.

How is the sound quality compared to stock radio unit?
Sound quality on the stock radio was great but it didn't get loud. This one sounds louder than factory but there is distortion at any volume above 26 (it goes to 30). It's a compromise for now I intended to install a full system.. unfortunately all my plans have been pushed back as I am focusing on my work right now. All these videos were shot shortly after becoming a freelance inspector, so work was limited at that time, fortunately now I have more than I know what to do with. If I have a slow period more update videos will come.
There is a premium version of agama launcher
Can you run maps/waze and backview camera side by side or as 2 widgets?
I cannot confirm that as my reverse camera is wired to only power on when the reverse mode is triggered. For what you need you would need to run an additional power cable and switch to turn the camera on when commanded, or have the camera always powered on with an accessory power source, which usually diminishes the life of the camera drastically.
Does the CarPlay work well?
I did an update last month it has been a little shitty since then as it skips here and there while playing audio. But it was working good prior to that. Can be hit and miss
Estas en California? Tengo 6 meses con este aparato y no puedo hacerle el setting, sabes de alguien q me pueda hacer trabajar todo bien, ty
Dependiendo de el modelo del auto puede ser complicado yo lo instale en mi vehículo porque para mí modelo no es muy complicado. Pero para vehículos tipo europeo puede ser muy complicado
does it support 360 continuously recording?
I don't believe my unit supports 360 cameras I think the newer models do though. But the 360 recording, I don't know if that's even possible on the new one.
Is the only way to reset it to have that power switch? Is there any other way?
No, there's also a reset button behind the screen, here is a picture for guidance. Adding that switch makes it more convenient as I only need to flick it on and off and does the same as a reset as the switch is on the 12V line.

I have a problem the screen went out, the buttons are on, what could it be, tell me?
Ribbon cable
@@locorudy626 and what about him with the cable, ? maybe they told me that this is a memory
@@Lom73111 maybe it is the memory, the ribbon cable probably your cheapest option in the troubleshooting process I'd start there. I'd actually start by disconnecting and reconnecting the ribbon cable maybe even flip sides for all I know it could be a bad LCD as well but it is up to you to determine how far you want to troubleshoot or just return to manufacturer which you will have to cover shipping for.
Is your music player slow? I tried usd, sd card, and even downloaded all my music to it and its painfully slow to use. Its useless i have to use youtube music
I downloaded like 5 songs and tried it. Seamed snappy on playback. Maybe on a usb with large playlist and files would slow it down unfortunately I do not have a large playlist like I did 15 years ago when I filled up 80gb iPods no problem. I stream everything now 😞
@@locorudy626 yea i have at least 15gb.. i got a different music player and it works great. The only thing is the stock music player widget cant be changed
what is the name of your launcher 4 it is very beautiful
The launcher is the factory launcher that came with the radio from factory. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a port for it.
Does obd2 Bluetooth adapter work with it?
I haven’t tried that I’ll check it out and get back to you on it
does the unit get v hot?
It's far up in my dash so I guess I've never checked or noticed, but I can say that I haven't seen the performance change with prolonged use. I've taken 6+ hr road trips and it's been fine. I've also gone to my local grocery store and had it freeze and had to restart it. It does glitch out while using Google maps, controls slow down while using the app and you lcan earn to work around it, but other than that the occasional once a month freeze or restart is all I have to worry about. If you've seen some of my other videos I installed a simple restart switch. I actually recorded the 2 year long term review last month just haven't posted it I go over all this.
@@locorudy626thanks. Is there no way to restart it without a switch when it glitches/crashes
@@RationalCreed Yes, there's also a reset button behind the screen, here is a picture for guidance. Adding that switch makes it more convenient as I only need to flick it on and off without removing the screen which can be a problem while driving.

This snapdragon unit sounded like shit. Sent it back and hot the other unit.
My backup cam is backwards
Is it upside down or acting as a towing a trailer? If it's upside down check to see if your Camara has a 180° cable. If it is acting like towing a trailer if you have a joying radio check to see if in the general settings there is a backup camera settings for image Mirror, try switching it on or off.
