Hello friends, anyone has the newest 10.1 version of the f7we, im trying to make carplay full screen but i cant find any options neither on the manual or the head unit its so annoying and distracting seeing those little icons all the time and not having the full screen
Note: i had the older f7 version and never had that on my screen

I ordered the S8 last year and I'm finally getting around to installing it into my 01 Miata that has the factory bose speaker & amp setup. Supposedly the Metra 70-7901 is the correct wiring harness. I get everything plugged in and the head unit works but no sound coming from the speakers. I messed around interchanging the "amp turn on" & "antennae" wires (internet said the power antennae input is what triggers the bose amp to turn on, so i followed a.i.'s trial and error options) and eventually got it to where the antennae actually raises when the head unit is turned on. I thought that was progress, but still no sound. I don't see any "factory amp" settings within the head unit's settings menus. I'm sure this all has something to do with the Bose amp complicating things. I will say this head unit is very cool, has a lot of depth to it and a great screen as well, so I'm just bummed. Any help would really be appreciated.

Just wondering about an issue I am getting,

I have a VW Polo 2008. I have connected a ground loop isolator iso cable to the factory quadlock and the to the S8 MS cake but I get this strange pulsing sound from the speakers.

Here's the sound compressed in a zip file. sound

I really don't know what to do, it's getting on my nerves. I have contacted the seller and they are no use, they suggest changing all my speakers

I hope someone can help

Thanks all

I ran into the same basic problem discussed here: Developer Options and USB debugging could be enabled on the S8, but neither accessible USB lead ever enumerated as an ADB device on the computer. Changing the default USB mode (File Transfer, tethering, MIDI, PTP, or no data) did not fix it.

I turned the working bootstrap we used into a small open-source app and a detailed guide:

https://github.com/lrehmann/atoto-adb-via-wifi

Latest APK/release:

https://github.com/lrehmann/atoto-adb-via-wifi/releases/latest

What it does:

- Binds to the FYT vendor service already present at com.syu.ms/app.ToolkitService.

- Requests temporary or persistent ADB on TCP port 5555.

- Restarts adbd through that same FYT property bridge.

- Shows the head-unit IP and current/persistent ADB properties.

- Includes a Disable Wi-Fi ADB action.

It does not require root, Magisk, a patched boot image, a firmware modification, or a working USB ADB connection.

Quick path:

1. Download/install the APK directly on the head unit with its browser, file manager, removable storage, or a local HTTP server.

2. Put the head unit and computer on the same trusted Wi-Fi.

3. Open the app, confirm FYT ToolkitService is found, and enable temporary or persistent Wi-Fi ADB.

4. Run: adb connect HEAD_UNIT_IP:5555

5. Approve the computer's RSA fingerprint on the head unit.

Target/compatibility: the underlying method was tested on an ATOTO S8G2A74MS, Android 10, QP1A.190711.020, incremental 33515. It is FYT/vendor-specific and may not work on another S8 or firmware. Please include exact model/build details in compatibility reports.

Security: ADB is powerful. Use only on a private network, never port-forward 5555, approve only an RSA key you recognize, and disable persistence when you no longer need it.

Disclosure: much of the original investigation was hands-on trial and error on the target S8, with substantial assistance from OpenAI GPT-5.5 and GPT-5.6. The public repo is a focused, sanitized rewrite with no firmware blobs, vendor APKs, credentials, private signing keys, local IPs, or RCAM project material. It is not affiliated with ATOTO/FYT.

Is there a way to remove the annoying black bar that takes up the top of the screen? I never want split screen so its annoying have jt there constantly.
Hidden in a menu maybe? Atoto says it’s built into CarPlay.

Hey everyone, my NoName 187B (HW 036, SW 0357) keeps randomly dropping wired CarPlay and jumping back to AM/FM.
Is this a known 0357 bug?

So I've been chatting to support about this, but struggling.

I've installed my A6PF, and if I open the RCAM app manually, I get "no signal" when in neutral. Put it into reverse, camera works fine, which suggests to me it's cabled correctly.

The issue is, I can't get the app to open automatically on reverse, meaning I have to keep manually opening the app. Not the end of the world, but I'd like to try and fix it.

Only solution I found elsewhere was to reboot the entire device, which I did, but no look. Anyone else had this issue or found a solution?

It's a factory installed Alpine camera, with a single RCA lead.

The latest update of Spotify changed the layout so it is very unfriendly for an Atoto S8 Pro.

Does anyone have the same issue or a workaround?

Thanks!!

Hey guys im looking to buy a new head unit i used to have the old f7 with wired carplay (it always worked good for my need) i bought a new truck so i need a new screen since it has basic radio only, im looking to right now an f7 we 9inch on ebay and a 10.1 inch on amazon difference its only 10-15 bucks and i saw on ebay an a5l for a good price too so my question is should i stay with an f7 o should i get the a5l even if it only has 2 gigs of ram ?
Note: y only use basic need like backup camera, radio and carplay, not gonna use so much the android part of the head unit

I installed an S8 9" in my honda which has a factory amp and sub. It's only been a little over a month and everything has been great until this last weekend when I started my car and I had no sound from my door speakers but the sub was still working. After a little while of driving the sound came back and stayed. This morning everything worked great, driving to my wife's work, still working great, start the car to drive home and it happened again. It's about 83 degrees out so I was thinking it's a heat issue, and since I got stuck with the output converters maybe those are getting too hot?

I haven't pulled the unit to check wiring yet since it's basically an oven in the sun, but we hit some railroad tracks and stuff going home and nothing changed so maybe I can rule out a loose wire? I'm looking for some ideas before I pop the unit out and start wiggling wires, thanks!

Hi everyone, like many others, I’m experiencing the same problem with the GPS signal dropping out. Recently, the situation has gotten worse, and I practically never have a GPS signal. As suggested by other users, I factory reset my Atoto S8 MS through the settings and held down the reset button for 30 seconds. There was no improvement.

I also tried moving the GPS receiver: I usually keep it on the dashboard, under the windshield with the adhesive side facing the plastic, but I also tried placing it outside the car, with no results. The Android version is 10; honestly, I couldn’t find a newer version on their website.

I’m open to any advice—I’m desperate.

I’m also attaching a photo of the current situation (car parked in an outdoor parking).

I just installed the model A5L.

Is it worth it to connect the GPS Antenna?

Thanks

Just wondering about an issue I'm getting, now I've connected this to the dual connector slots on the S8 ms harness and I'm getting a humming or strange sound from my front speakers.

This harness https://amzn.eu/d/0jj1BbH1

Just wondering if I change the harness to the one below will it resolve the issue and also give canbus to fix turn on and off, instead of staying always on?

Im kinda new to the scene, im just wondering if theres an update or any software tweaks to this unit

I put the Google Clock widget on the Home screen and now the unit is boot looping. There is no time to click on anything before it reboots again. What can I do? I can't find any resources on entering fastboot or recovery. I also can't find the firmware on the eproductcare site for this model (S8LG2B7SD-S04)

I have emailed ATOTO support and am not getting any responses. Any help would be appreciated before I call Amazon and try to get them to return the unit, I've had it for a little more than a month.

Necesito ayuda con el firmware del Atoto A6Y2721PR; he instalado otras versiones de firmware, pero los botones táctiles de la izquierda no funcionan.

I lost the ability to use YouTube pip while using apple car play

I have the a5l 10inch single din model.

Cómo hacer una limpieza del antiguo sistema

How do you adjust the phone ring volume on the S8? It is very loud.

Thank you for the help.

Hi all,

I have purchased an Atoto S8 Gen2 and I am trying to fit it in a VW Polo 2008, but the iso cakes do not fit the factory cable. I got this adaptor for the Quad Lock and the iso connector of the S8, but the S8 does not come on.

Any advice on what to do? It's much appreciated.

Thanks all.

Hello

After a factory reset, my GAC Trumpchi GS3 2025 multimedia system is asking for a 

registration/activation code. Machine code: 02ffd304 

I am located in Algeria, and we do not have an official GAC dealer here. I only want to activate the multimedia system and set the language to English.

VIN: 

LMGHTIL84S3220898

Can you help me ?

GAC customer service is not responding

I just installed the S8Lite, everything works as intended except the YouTube app. It says something about please be careful, don’t watch videos while driving.
Any ideas?

Trying to get the unit out to hook up backup camera. Pulled the set screws but the damn thing won’t budge. Please tell me I’m an idiot and I’ve made a simple, easily fixable mistake.
