Hi, I have just installed a chinese head unit with Android 11 and initially things are working but it does not connect with the infocenter on the car so I cannot adjust clock and language.

Any suggestions?

    Many others have reported the same issue once the aftermarket unit is fitted. As far as I know there is no fix to the problem.

    So far I got the steering wheel buttons to work and also after selecting the can bus the infocenter is now same language as head unit and I can adjust clock from steering wheel control arm. After I selected can bus type there was an automatic APK update starting and after that the side buttons on the head unit doesn't work anymore. I am now in doubt if I selected the right can bus type. Hiworld, Raise, Simple Soft or Oudi. For some reason I chose Raise but I have no clue which one is correct. Can you help with that?

    The can bus box following the head unit is marked FORD-RZ-09

    Best regards
