Dasaita Android Head Unit

Nice, thank you.

 

Hi All, I purchased a Dasaita headhunt 10.2 from a member on our board. But when I received the headhunt I noticed 2 pieces of plastic holding the screen to the head unit are missing. He said to never had them. So I need to find out what this part is called if anyone one knows. Image of it is attached.
I am trying to ask Dasaita or Phoenix to help me.

 

Plastic screen tilt pins. Yeah, they probably aren't sold separately, so Dasaita is your only chance.

 

Solved my own Russian way

 

Nice!

 

very creative. hey greg i know you are in LA but if you need any help with your android unit just pm me. i am in santa clarita and have installed 3 of them so far. cheers

Hello guys, I got the DASAITA 10.2 screen on my tundra 2019, but he takes forever for the z-link to connect to my Apple CarPlay. I don’t know if I need to update my Z-link ( version 3.3.19) I search in the internet, but can’t find nothing. Thanks

 

Thank you Tinman!
The install is actually fairly easy. Well after i figured out that something is off about the screen.

Only thing not working for me in a 2018 is the TPMS and Fuel. Perhaps wrong canbus from the person I purchased. He has a 2016 Tundra. So wondering if I need to update wiring properly.

 

I have a 2019, the tpms and fuel app do not work for me either. bought new from dasaita. not worried about it. still have tpms in the dash.

 

Another question. Has anyone yet using the DVR feature? What camera do you use for that ?

 

greg you need to buy the usb dashcam first. i did a write up here:

awesome write up. I actually ordered Dasaita Dashcam unit via eBay was on sale. Also Ordered their TV Digital Tunner .

This truck is starting to become a nice place to relax

 

it will greg. my kids love it and my wife has an android unit i installed for her in her mazda cx9 too. kids are super spoiled because they get, Amazon prime, hulu, netflix, videos, philo on long road trips. btw if you want netflix on your android unit, you will need to download this version of the apk install file:

Netflix version 4.16 works

I need to load it, but can anyone confirm that YouTube TV works on this? Thanks for the Netflix app, was missing that on the last road trip. Had to use Prime video to entertain the kiddos in the back.

 

How are you sending to the back HDMI out ? and what monitors do you use for rear ?

 

Sorry, misspoke, they watched the screen from the back seat. I’d love to know how to output to rear screens

 

Here are the issues I am having guys. 1. My hotspot is not working too well. Anything with login to chrome it says can't connect to https secure. Odd.
Will try to figure that out. Next trying to setup CarPlay so got a usb see if I can get software that way.

Oh also TPMS works if you go into car info. The other software where it says TPMS that's for the dasaita tpms sensor

 

Youtube TV works perfectly, I watched the two NCAA games on my drive back from Chicago!

 

@916tundra Thanks for starting a fabulous thread about these HU... I'm still on the fence about getting one.. partly because I really like my XM and tend to windup in the back of beyond where cell service is a mere myth... but wanted to express my appreciation to you and all the other people contributing to the knowledge pool here...

 

Ok pulled the Dasaita out of my car. This thing frustrates me to no end now.
1) Has noise coming when nothing playing. just this little bit of hum. Tried grounding better and pulling cables. Nothing helps. So I know it is the head unit.
2) The volume is so loud coming out of this thing. Its insane loud. At few clicks its screaming at me.
3) Using Carplay unable to open Radio. So need to go to apps panel and shut down carplay in order to listen to radio. And that is ok IF there was normalized sound coming from this thing.
4) need to upgrade microphone. I use phone in the car alot. This microphone sucks BAD


Put OEM head unit in and it seems simplicity as bliss.

I want to get his thing running But I will wait a little bit for more parts to arrive.
Also I need to research on how to normalize the sound from this unit or update the software or something.

My hands look like i plaid with 10 kittens.

 

Be patience, I’m sure you can troubleshoot most of the issues.
1)where is your current grounding point? Did you ground at the same point as your aftermarket amp? Ground loop noise is caused by having multiple grounding locations.
2)did you retune your amplifier after installating this HU? You do have an aftermarket amp correct? Need to retune so that the voltage is correct.
3)carplay is essentially an app. Cannot run multiple apps at one time especially music/video apps. There are many radio apps you can download and use from CarPlay.
4)I have no issue with my microphone. Maybe buy a better one and test it out.

You said that you bought this HU from someone on this forum. Did he or she have any issue with it? Also, why would the hinge pins be missing?

 

Thanks! Just trying to contribute to this forum like many others.

Before you make the decision, ask yourself what do you really need in a HU? If the stock unit serves you well, you don’t need to upgrade. If you want bells and whistles in a HU, this HU has been great for many of us. And if you decide to buy this HU and all goes well, you can sell the stock one to recoupe a good portion. That’s what I did.

 

All- does anyone know how to create a poll? I would like to see who on here is satisfied or not satisfied with this HU.

 

Ken I think you edit your first post and there should be a section for polls when you scroll down

 

Yea tested the mic and it was dead. Opened it up and saw bad soldering covering both ground and hot wire. So it was shorting out, New mic ordered.

You might be right about Amp needing some running. I will research further into this.
When you say Voltage is correct. It is all 12 volts is it not ?

 

Tune your amp using a digital multimeter (volt meter). The gain (AC voltage, not the same as 12 dc volt from the car battery) has to be set correctly. There are many videos on YouTube that will show you how.

This is one of them from ********* since I have their amps. https://youtu.be/cSkYKWLHrws

 

My alpine power pack only has 1 thing to to turn not other knows. But I will check if anything else can be done.

 

Dasaita sent me some info sharing with you gang
This file is from Dec 8 after I asked about volume loudness.

Here the latest link with system and updates: Please download, then ONLY put the update.zip file to the USB (format the USB firstly).
Finally, click the setting > system > system updates to update it.
Here the latest link with MCU and updates
V3.40 Please download then ONLY put IMG file to the USB (format the USB firstly).
Finally, click the setting > system > MCU update to update it.

 

So this is for the main 12.2" unit that most everyone has? I've been apprehensive about updating as I know Android can brick pretty easy. But I'd love to have a volume fix.

 

this is for 10.2 Not sure about 12. This is directly from Dasaita over facebook. So not sure. When I install the radio back in this weekend I will attempt the install.
