Double click on button actions? - MTCD Android Head Units General

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

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.

Dasaita Head Unit steering button issue

My car is a 2017 WRX STI with Harman kardon system. I know the dasaita is not designed to work with it but I've put my own amp, wired new speakers and made it work. I was having issue with turning on my amp and backup camera when I put my car in reverse. However I was able to map all my steering wheel buttons correctly. Then after that, I was able to figure out how to turn on my amp by moving one of the wiring pins in the harness and connect directly to my remote turn on lead to the amp. Also I was able to provide power to the backup cam when I put my car in reverse and now it works. My issue now is that my directional buttons on the steering wheel doesn't work anymore. Other buttons work like the mute button. Anyone have a wiring harness diagram for the steering wheel buttons from dasaita? I had an Android head unit before and that one I had no issue with it recognizing the steering wheel button commands.
With "directional buttons" you mean up/down (prev/next) right?
So, the Android units do not have too many choices. You either use the CanBus provided by Dasaita (or several 3rd party) for your vehicle "family" (usually same CanBus shared among different car models and brands) and you live with whatever is supported (usually only Vol +/-, Mute, Prev/Next), or you connect your steering wheel buttons to the "Key-1" and "Key-2" cables on the unit and you configure/program the unit to execute an action when buttons are pressed.
For using Key-1 and Key-2 cables:
1) You need to verify that your steering wheel buttons are restive (pressing a button changes the resistance seen by the unit)
2) You need the diagram of your steering wheel as different sections are connected to different units on the car and so use different cables. As an example, on my Mazda:
- Perv/Next, Vol +/-, Mute are one resistance bridge that goes to the stereo (one cable, as the "-" is always chassis)
- Talk, Pick-up, Hang-down is another cable that goes to the Bluetooth unit (again one cable, and the bluetooth unit then connects to the Aux of the stereo)
- Up/Down/Left/Right and Enter (the other side of the steering wheel) goes to the Computer Display (have not played with this one, no idea if it is one cable or more)
In my case I left the Vol/Mute/Prev-Next alone as it was working via the CanBus, but I cut the cable going from the steering wheel to the Bluetooth Unit and connected it to Key2 in a PX5 MTC-D Dasaita unit and configured those keys to handle phone calls + Google Assistant. I guess I still have Key-1 if one day I want to completely kill the factory "computer display" that any way only shows basic statistics.
Hope this helps. I can share the Mazda Steering Wheel circuit so you can see what you should be looking for (most probably Subaru will use other color code for the cabling)
Key 1 Key 2
I bought some external buttons that I want to connect Android car stereo dasaita can you indicate the cables key 1 key 2 where to connect?

Problem with MTCE PX5 head unit related to steering wheel keys

Dear community,
I'm kind of lost since I get no support from Erisin about this (no response)
I have a BMW E46 from 2002 and the Erisin head unit.
MCU version is stock px5 MTCE (px5-userdebug 8.0.0. OPR5.170623.007 eng.hct.20180417.101726 test-keys)
I liked the idea of controlling the head unit volume by steering wheel.
Therefore I wired and installed the steering wheel buttons to my car.
The ACC works fine and in general I can control the head unit by the buttons.
Change Volume, Skip a song and so on...
Buuuut very often the head unit goes crazy or the control gets lost over the steering wheel buttons. (I am not able to drive over 30 minutes without having this error)
It seems like the head unit receives some ghost commands and volume goes up to max or I have random song skips. Sometimes it simply doesn't react on buttons.
Of couse this is not usable at all, therefore I disconnected the whole buttons.
For example you see a ghost volume up at 0:27

Or here there is no reaction on volume up (please excuse my loud breathing)

Key study menu doesn't work at all:

Here is magic volume up (you will also see a handsome gangster guy)
https://youtu.be/ZPDQMeU4CNU
I have no clue how to debug or what I can do.
Any hints from the experts?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You should go Settings/Steering wheel keys to program the SWC, but not go to panel keys study.
I think the key menu doesnt matter. Actually the Buttons work as expected. But it gets out of control very often (random skips, volume up and so on). I also saw a key menu where I See the logs of key press. The head unit seem to actually receive the ghost key strokes repeatedly.
Have you tried entering at the factory menu and changing the car model at canbus menu?
You have a full menu for the keys where to change configurations.
