[Q] Internal Parts Swap - MeMO Pad 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not sure if this is posted in the proper spot, so sorry if it's not.
I have an ASUS MeMO Pad HD7 and a DigiLand 7" DL701Q. I have the DigiLand tablet mounted in my car as my infotainment center, however, the ASUS fits in my car perfectly. The reason I have the DigiLand in my car is that it has an FM Receiver.
My question is, would it be possible to put the parts from the DigiLand tablet into the ASUS and vise versa?
Thanks,
Randy

Music dock

Hi all,
Hope everyone is having a good weekend
I am on the hunt for a docking station for the Razr I for my wife as part of her Christmas present, she currenty has a docking station for the iPod - but now that she has the Razr she would like one for it. As you can imagine, in a world full of i-compatible devices and docking stations finding one that is mini-USB compatible is a challenge.
Does anyone know or can recommend a docking station for me
Thanks in advance
Chris
Correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I know USB-Audio out ist not possible (on Razr I)
You could search for a bluetooth dock that charges the phone.
(Honestly I don't know about that USB-Audio thing, but thats my guess)
Don't know about USB audio either,
But how about this one:

Music via Bluetooth and adaptable USB-port for charging, slap an NFC-Sticker on it for auto connect and music app start and you should be good to go.

question on triggering accessory relays

I'm interested in installing a pumpkin audio unit in my jeep for the primary purpose of audio, but secondarily triggering accessory relays for lights and other accessories. So far my search skills have not found anyone who has accomplished this with a head unit. I suspect there aren't any hard wire outs that can be utilized for this purpose, but thought maybe via wifi or bluetooth. Anyone heard of someone pulling this off?
From your post assume you want to supply other accessories when HU is powered on? Use sub output or antenna output to trigger 12v relay for this purpose.

well not looking to actually power the accessories, but just trigger a 12v relay to run high voltage accessories. lightbars, winches, rock lights etc. ideally an app that gets installed on the unit which can communicate to a relay board.. either through wifi or bluetooth or a direct wire or usb cable out the back of the unit.
You would have to find some sort of usb switch that has an android app.
Could be something completely unrelated to what you are doing as long as it triggers a ground or positive. Unfortunately i dont think any of these units have programmable switched outputs

Such a board exists Im a new poster so can't do hot link, But such a bluetooth relay board exists on amazon for about 20 bucks. Its really a question now if the headunit can install this app and communicate correctly with the board

Mate 10 Pro connection to Kenwood DNX525/DNX516

Hello,
I have never been a chinese devices fan nor I will be. However, I've got my hands on the Mate 10 Pro a week ago and I'm using it and testing. I have to say it's not the best phone out, but has a lot of potential.
I thought it might be interesting and useful to give others some guide about connecting the Mate 10 Pro to a car head unit from Kenwood (2 versions I have already tested - DNX 525 and DNX 516). I've smashed my head to the walls looking and reading for a proper solution to connect it to the radio car unit and I couldn't find anything. Main reason is because both Kenwoods are using a HDMI <-> Micro-usb cable and that's ONLY for older devices (until USB-C came on the market). So, basically, if you're trying to get an adapter USB-C to Micro-usb WILL NOT WORK! You have to use the above cable hdmi to usb-c!
1. Look for a HDMI splitter - 1 x father and 2 x mother so you can connect 2 devices at the same time (just like the one here: http://www.vivanco.com/Homepage/Products/Audio-Video-Antenna-Cable/Video/HDMI-Adapter/vivanco-42144-hdmi-splitter-1-2-black-0-5m.html?id=nsession;
2. Open the radio car unit and disassemble the original HDMI <-> Micro-usb and connect the above splitter;
3. Connect BOTH HMDI cables (the original one and the second one);
4. You'll have to find a solution to get both cables to the front of the IP so you can connect car head unit to the mobile phone (instrument panel - either on the gloves compartment or by making a hole to the small compartment beneath the air condition climatic control - this is actually very easy);
5. Assemble everything back and start the unit;
6. Connect the USB-C to the Mate 10 Pro (or any other mobile phone with USB-C connector) and voila! You'll have the complete screen on the radio car unit.
You also need to install onto your phone the Android app from Kenwood (that will open the MHL/HDMI).
What you can't do on the DNX525:
1. you can't control the phone through the radio unit - you have to use the phone to control it!
Let's say you have a Note4 and a Huawei Mate 10 Pro - YOU CAN NOT use both of them at the same time! Only one!
Everything is related to VW Golf (5, 6, Plus).
Apologies, I had no time for taking pictures .

Adding Android Auto (Hopefully)

Hey guys, at the moment i have a Tuvva KSD7813 Head unit which has a HDMI input and USB for MHL, however my problem at the moment is that my Galaxy S8+ doesn't support MHL, nor does the 2016 Galaxy J5 i use for music in the car.
I've tried using Crankshaft on a mate's Raspberry Pi which seems to run fine on the HDMI input to the stereo, however it doesn't recognize the touch screen just on HDMI alone and i don't think Crankshaft will have coding to recognize touch gestures etc coming from USB as a USB keyboard and mouse showed no results.
So i was wondering if anyone on here could think of anything else to try to get AA running on this particular stereo, at least until i can afford a decent Pioneer head unit in future.

Hopefully someone can come up with some ideas

Rear seat video player

I have a Hyundai Tucson with a Kenwood DNX692. I would like to have a rear seat entertainment for my rear seat passengers. I was exploring various options and most are priced pretty high. We made do with an ipad mounted to rear screen on a trip. Although it was good, it did have a few disadvantages:
1. Inability to control what was running.
2. Inability to control the downtime.
3. Additional hassle of either downloading or using data
4. Inability to play DVDs
Searching for seatback options, I thought of another idea. Why not just get two android tablets (cheap ones, not like Samsung galaxy - https://www.alibaba.com/product-det...galleryofferlist.normalList.80.72f95f61UXzwUq) and just wire it with the HDMI input from my Kenwood. Theoretically speaking, all I need to do is get the output from my Kenwood(not sure what it is) and convert it into HDMI. So all I need is to run the cable to my rear seat and a couple of charging cables to my rear seat as well. I will then need to use a HDMI adapter with Charging port similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/CHOETECH-Ada...keywords=galaxy+s9+hdmi&qid=1548202641&sr=8-3. I am even looking at removing the battery from the tablet. That way it powers on only if my car is switched on. Is this possible? Has anyone done this here?
