ok i have uploaded the DAB app to my OneDrive, let me know if it works. https://1drv.ms/u/s!ApKAZf4actzCqHemcBH3d8srXtz0?e=ztQG8B Still couldn't find the option to switch to RHD though.

Got everything back and I didn't lose any of the apps that were installed just for the life of me I cannot find where to change the open door picture to show the correct side 🤔

Might not be able to now😥 I thought I would click on the factory reset the one that asks for a password expecting it take me to another menu. 7890 is the password but it did not give me no do you really want to factory reset but it just went off and did it.

I can probably send you the apk from mine if that helps as it is showing as version 3.21.

Ok so after trying mine and losing the panel keys I ended up doing it a different way. I have made a video which will hopefully help you sort it. You need to press on the touchscreen with all fingers for about 10 seconds and you might need to try it a few times to get it to work as sometimes it opens one of the apps on the main screen first. https://youtu.be/3QhRFUteyPg

I will have a look at mine tomorrow and see if I can remap the panel keys.

What made you decide to factory reset? Not sure why you would lose the side panels control but I know there is an option to have the control panel lights off, on with vehicle lights or permanently on. I am thinking about factory reset now i have a better understanding of the unit but will make sure I run a backup 1st.

I don't use Sygic I use Waze but haven't really haven't had to use it properly yet and normally I don't have turn by turn sounds switched on.

I guess that is the same problem I have with the split double USB, you should find though that the one that didn't work with the DAB dongle will actually just charge, try plugging a mobile phone into it and the phone should show charging. My phone does show charging but at a low voltage.

Should have read your this post before replying to you 😁 It seems that to get all the right upgrades and settings on installation can be a bit confusing until it decides to click into place. Hopefully you are all good now.

Mine is currently set to what is in the photo but it works on a few options. Have you tried changing to VW MQB or PQ? Also have you ran the upgrades for the MCU? All my proximity sensors work as they should. Yes the driving mode options pop up on the screen when I press the mode butto

It's only only the ACC line that the voltage is dropping to 9v. The main 12v feed is steady. I will investigate a bit further over Christmas.

Only drops to 9v when the engine is starting, 12.1v with engine off and 14v when driving.

You mean it was searching for radio channels or searching for the dongle? Have you confirmed that the usb is working properly by plugging in a USB drive and seeing that it is showing in the file manager or playing a music file from the USB drive? Are you using the factory dab aerial or the one supplied with the dongle? Good to know that you are not having the sound cutout problem, I have a funny feeling that mine is doing it due to my battery voltage dropping to 9volts when starting the car so something I might look into if I can be bothered.

Glad the canbus is now working. When you say the dab isn't working what do you mean? Is it picking that there is a dab dongle connected?

Is the head unit connected to the Internet?

Guess you found the Octavia. You can try different VW cars like going to the Golf etc. You just need to figure out which works the best for your car.

Go into Apps then settings. look for Factory Settings which should bring up a password box. Enter 123456 as the password then hopefully you should see the Canbus settings.

That's interesting as mine are there. There are 2 slots at the top above the screen that you use some radio extraction keys with and then you pull out from the top and lift.

If it is the same as mine then it goes in the bottom ports

Did you get this lead as it has the mic jack on it that that you plug an external mic into and connects to the head unit.

The 5v and ground cables are wired from the quadlock connector to the factory usb on the 2 pins on the external of the factory usb connector, the unit in the glovebox supplies the 5v and ground when the quadlock is connected to the unit in the glovebox but as you know by fitting a new head unit results in the unit in the glovebox not being connected in any way so, the only way to get the 5v and ground to the correct pins on the factory usb using the existing factory wiring is to rewire the iso harness that comes with the new head unit to add the 5v and ground to the corresponding pins on the iso harness to mate with Quadlock connector. My plan will be once I get the full quadlock spare parts is to use the 4cpin JCT to female usb cable that was supplied with the new head unit, strip back the JCT end and cut the 5v and ground cable, connect the cut 5v and ground cable from the JCT connector and wire that into the 2 corresponding pins on the iso harness to match up with the existing pins on the quadlock connector which will supply the 5v and ground directly to the factory USB and leaving the 2 data signal cables as they are. I will then connect the Fakra to USB male lead to the yellow Fakra connector and then connect the female USB to it where it only has the 2 data signals still wired. This should hopefully then provide power and data to the factory USB. Hope that all makes sense.

Or take the plunge and change to an Android head unit like I have just done

I was playing around with the Agama launcher today and ended up uninstalling and re-installing it. When the pop up notfification asked for just once or always I clicked on always and ended up having the same problem as you have, I never had the problem before. I managed to sort it in the end by going into Themes in the Apps folder then setting the original launcher as default. Restarted the head unit then went into Apps then Themes and then set the default launcher as Agama and it then stopped asking for running once or always.
