and not this menu!
i can change only 7 colors,
but i want "always on" but darker or dimm, possible?

a)
>>  general/Backlight control   ("small light controll" on/off, on = Time control, off = out)
where is "allways on"?

b)
>> general/Lantern Settings
only 7 colors possible, no dim no adjust
where can i dimm

a) There is no always on. Either it works on the "time of day" with sunset/sunrise, or it works on the headlights: If you switch on the head lights, the leds will go on.
One big remark: Despite all cables correctly connected, for me the setting where you switch the headlights on, does not work.On my Joying PX5 it did work, with my new JY-VO132N4GS that does not work. I guess it is a bug in the software. I have already had several mail exchanges with Joying.

b) Only 7 colors? It means that you are on too old firmware. The multi-color color wheel was introduced in one of the later firmwares. If you want this you have to upgrade to the latest 17-09-2019 firmware version. See the Joying blog.
It is not possible to dim the leds.

Yes, i have followed all video instructions, the seller from ebay gave me an update file, the lights come on at boot up and switch off as soon as it goes to home page.

How can this be so so difficult!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am having the exact same issue.
During boot up the they are visibly working. The moment it gets to the home screen interface they turn off.
Just by dumb luck I was able to get them to turn on few months back but recent was forced to factory reset as my apps would no longer download and update and now low and behold the problem returns

I have something new for you to try. It just now worked for me so and this is a similar thing I randomly tried a few months ago.

Please make sure you do not have the "timed" setting enabled for the lights under the "factory" settings.

1. Disconnect your car battery - (I did this as an extra measure)
2. Disconnect the cable harness that plugs into the Head Unit
3. Walk away (I was frustrated so I walked away for 20 minutes - shorter amount could work)
4. Connect battery
5. Turn Key into on position
6. Plugin cable harness on head unit
7. It booted up, side panel lights stayed on

It is likely #1 is not required as I only listed it because this is what I did.
No I did not list #5 and #6 backwards as this is exactly what I did due to frustration with everything else I tried and failed.

Good luck!
