Thank you!! How is your new head unit???

Thank you!! I started using Nova 7 about a month ago. I really like it.

That's awesome! You are very welcome!

I fully installed it myself. there is full installation of this unit, and the newer version they came out with in a different video on my channel. Thanks!

It sticks out about an inch. After a few days you wont even notice it. If you send a DM on our instagram I would be more than happy to send you any pics you would like.

Unfortunately you have to either get the Sim Card for it or run your phone on hotspot to use the maps by themselves. I always use android auto so its not an issue for me. That sim card goes into a card holder on the back of the brain of the head unit.

Send Joying an email, I have recently been told they are coming out with connectors that will allow you to plug directly into your factory backup cam. I'm not sure if that configuration I did to get the backup cam to work with the Joying would be the same wiring with a birds eye cam. Sorry I couldn't be more help!

Be looking for it in June! I'm adding it to my videos to make list. Thanks!!

Sound quality is the same as the stock unit. I do wish I had the JBL upgraded package from Toyota, my truck is very loud. Cruising around by the house, going to the store or whatever, it sounds like the factory unit.

the music will continue to play as long as the Settings are correct. it comes from the factory with the music either off during reversing or it goes down to like level 2 or 3. Thanks!

I have never had any issues with heat.

Thank you!! The only thing I can think is maybe you got a faulty harness from joying. I would contact them and get a new one sent out. It sounds like those wires aren't getting power to them. That or maybe the part of the harness that clips into the back of the radio isn't seated properly or maybe there is debris in the harness at either end that isn't allowing those wires to get power. Let me know what you find! Thanks again!!

Hey bud I will try my best to help you out! Just to clarify, you are pressing and holding the steering wheel control, and while holding that control, you are pressing the corresponding button on the joying unit. Once you press the joying button, that control should receive a number. You will still have to be holding the control on the steering wheel. Then press the check mark and it should assign it. If you are doing that and it is still not working, I would pull the unit back out and double-check that every plug is properly connected. I had some trouble with that the very first time I tried to run the unit. I thought the plugs were secured but they were not. I hope this helps! Please come back and let us know so maybe it can help someone else later! Thanks!

@@theduvaldummies Ok I'll give it a go ASAP Thank you Sir...

@@bbalestierdid this work?

No Joying says there is no option to adjust on 2013 Honda Civic Navi 😩@@msmonee91

Yes, I have not had to adjust the brightness. thank you for the question and the kind words!!

Also- subbed my dude.

Yeah down here best we got was 2 nights in the low 20s over Christmas weekend. But so far it's working great.

@@theduvaldummies thats good to hear. wonder how the security is on it since it's from overseas. there has to be a vulnerability somewhere.

@@topgunne12 I mean its running android not a Chinese software. unless android has a vulnerability you should be fine.

@@Yhappp yes - kinda work in that field. Since it's a proprietary OS, we are looking at vulns every day. Just haven't had the time or any reports yet to compare. If/When I purchase I will play around!

Hey sorry for the delayed response. I could have mapped them all out, but most the the commands were useless to me. On the left I have my volumes programed, the up and down arrows to skip or go back in music players or pandora, and that bigger mode button is my pause/play button. On the right I think i have them all mapped for the phone functions. Hope this helps! Thanks!

Let me get home this afternoon and look at it to see if I can answer that correctly. Off the top of my head, anything associated with Google and android can go into dark mode. Avenza does not have dark mode (which sucks). The screen will auto brighten and dim in conjunction with whether your head lights or running lights are on. Thanks!!

That was my thoughts too since android 10 i guess but there are lots of head unit with latest android version but skimmed from these features. To me this is important nights to switch systemwide to dark mode. It would be much comfortable for the eyes and reduce the eye strain. The can bus can get head light information but if the unit supports dark mode to turn on automatically according head lights or sun set that would be interesting.

Hey I just filmed a small night time test, I will edit it and post it as a short tomorrow. Spoiler alert, your gonna like what you see. Thanks again! I will also pin a link to the comment section on the video.

I can't wait to see. Thanks bro.

Video pinned!

If they have your vehicle on their site it should be plug and play, although I’m having a lot of issues right now on a 2013 Honda Civic previously with navigation and unit, Joying will reach out to you, but it take some time from China… There is a little bit of a language barrier with communication …

@@bbalestier Hey thanks for your reply. I found very identical ones on eBay for a fraction of the price. But I guess with anything Chinese it’s a hit or miss.

@GetDuked those are "non-branded" units. They are essentially the same thing. You will probably have trouble with using your stick steering wheel controls. They probably off a stand alone steering wheel controller.

@@bbalestier I plugged and played but the factory review camera was not working, Joying support is very responsive but not much help. A car toys shop installer fixed it ($180)
