Joying-Quad core- How to scroll through radio presets - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

It seems like a simple problem, but I cannot figure it out. When I am listening to the radio and I press forward (either on my steering wheel or the head unit) it just goes to the very next radio station (96.3-96.5-96.7-96.9....etc). I want it to scroll through my presets instead. Anyone know how to do that?
Also, I am using the latest Malaysk rom in case that matters.
Thanks,
PIA

Figured it out. I just mapped my forward and back buttons to a different function. Kind of like seek/skip.

Could you explain more in detail what you did? I want to be able to do this too

Go to settings, steering controls, and map the forward buttons on your steering wheel to the top set of arrows. This only works if you have steering wheel controls

Yeah mine won't go up or down the pre sets when I press the steering wheel control buttons either

Steering Wheel Button Sensitivity

I know I read this somewhere that someone was having issues of their steering wheel buttons being too sensitive and 1 press equals like 5 on the head unit but after much searching I did not find anything. Does anyone know how I can adjust my MTC unit so that when I hit next track it only does one button press? Is there also a way to set a long press vs a short press? I would like to be able to double assign the buttons on my wheel. One more thing I have had trouble with is that when I hit next track on the wheel in JetAudioPlus it also changes the radio station which I can see it do because on the mazda it shows the station info on my bar above the radio. Thanks

Steering Wheel Bluetooth Controls

I am looking for a steering wheel mountable, Bluetooth controller for an Android device. Currently, I am use a device called Bluclik. It works great for audio control. I can control volume and change tracks in all audio apps. However, I am trying to get full navigation control. I'd like at the very least, to have buttons for up, down, left right, enter/select and volume. If something also had back, home, and overview buttons it would be perfect.
I have been searching for a few hours now and have failed miserably. So this means either what I want doesn't exist or I have failed to internet good enough. Any help will be appreciated, thanks.

Canbus steering wheel control buttons for media next/prev

Guys i have a MTCD Malaysk 8.0 (i think HA alhough i've crossflashed a few times so forgot exactly) and i have a raise canbus for my golf, how can i make my golf steering wheel buttons work in headunit, spotify etc, they work in the stock BT app, the keycodes according to MTCD tools is 300/299 but even when settings them to media_next/media_prev it doesn't work.
mtcd tools or rk3188 app from the play store.
I'm having the same problem, I can turn the volume up and down. My unit has android auto, it's really annoying I can't skip tracks with my steering wheel controls. I'm not sure what am I supposed to do with the apps someone commented above. Were you able to fix this?
Me too. I'm a premium member of Spotify but end up using my lame stock music because of this problem.

How does steering controls works?

Hi,
I have a MTCE / PX5 with a raise , ford focus 2012 canbus decoder. Steering controls work (vol up/dw next/prev/play/pause ONLY) BUT how come I can't see anything in wheelkey study app? I would like to rebind some of my steering controls but the app don't see anything.
I have so many controls on my steering wheel I would like to bind but I can't!
Please someone have an idea what's wrong?
Thanks!

I’ve wondered the same, I believe you need to use the mtcde app to make changes to already default binded buttons but not worked out how to unbind one first.

My understanding (although haven't tested it yet) is that you need to connect the cables Key-1 and Key-2 directly to your steering wheel if you want to use the default learning function. This is assuming Ford Focus uses resistive bridges for steering wheel keys (Mazda does). You'll have to get & check a Wiring Diagram specific to your car to find the right cables. Also, Key 2 is NOT ground, you have 2 cables because sometimes the steering wheel controls go to different devices (in Mazda 3, the Vol +/-, Next and Mode go to the stereo, while the Push-to-talk, Hang-up / Hang-down go to the Bluetooth controller)
Hope this helps
Having said this, maybe you're better of by testing first XPosed, an app that allows you to change the functions of the keys. But you'll have to root your device. Malaysk has a SW release for PX5 already rooted and with XPOSED pre-installed. But most probably XPOSED will only let you change the functions of the keys that are already working, not to solve the issues with the ones that are not

I have the same problem on a Ford Kuga. Did you find a solution ?
Maybe the canbus configuration in the "settings" menu (the password protected menu) ?

The wheelkey study app is for non-canbus only.
The steering wheel keys are controlled by the canbus decoder for some vehicles. So that you can not program them.

Good response, but I think this thread went to crickets weeks ago.

Helpful -- thank you. Same issue here with a 2014 VW Beetle and an Eonon GA9153A (MTCE_HT_V2.84_1). At least now I understand why the wheelkey app doesn't recognize any steering wheel buttons. Bad software design -- the app should really show a message explaining this better

Double click on button actions?

Since I don't have steering wheel buttons in my car and non of these units have buttons, or if they do have buttons it has smaller screen then a phone, I wonder if someone did come up with solution for the next track action to work by ie. double tapping home button?
I wonder if there are any bluetooth controllers that could be attached to the steering wheel or the dash. Then you program the unit what to do when they are clicked.
Google seems to find some.
Well from the search here it seems on of the BT controlers work with the MTC units
