New E-Tong unit released. Identify hardware?

A new unit was just released for the 2004-2008 Acura TSX, which is a first as removal of the stock radio removes the dual zone climate controls as well. This is an awesome surprise for the TSX community, as before we were stuck with a god awful replacement for the stock CC system if we wanted to use a double din.
Anyhow, I've reached out to E-Tong and a representative sent me some images of the About Device screen. I was hoping the community here might shed some information based on what little info I have.
This is the unit in particular:

Now I'm assuming this has an Intel Sofia 3GR, particularly the Atom x3-C3200RK, as no 3G connectivity is listed for the unit outside of "support 3G dongle". I'm basing this on the Mali-450, lack of native 3G support, and 3200 in "Machine Code Response". Other than that, I'm guessing.
Assuming I'm correct, would the Sofia 3GR with 1GB RAM on 6.0 be adequate for Pandora/Spotify and Waze? I have no real other desired usage outside of that and rare bluetooth calls, with maybe the exception of playing some movie files for my kids on long road trips via a USB drive.
If so, anything to be aware of up front? I'm assuming I should be prepared to remove the unit cover and add a heatsink and fan assembly to the SoC package already. Suggested mods or tweaks?
Any and all information appreciated. I'll be relaying this information to my TSX forums as well. Thanks everyone!

Anyone have any insight?

Hey there, i just bought a radio from aliexpress for my 2003-2007 honda accord and all my info lines up with yours. I was wondering if you found out any information on it? Do you know the firmware to use to update the MCU? Thanks!
** EDIT if you care still lol
Are unit is joying software. If you look on their forum you can find a screen shot that matches ours. I ran that update and ran the root for joying devices from here and it worked great. I got viper4android installed and got some custom mods installed and it's working great.

I am thinking of buying this unit, how is it in your TSX? I currently have a non-nav TSX so I don't know if I will need to mess with the wiring harness or not.

Any help?
I have the same unit, and the clock and GPS doesn't work anymore. I wanted to reset to factory or try and upgrade it. I have it in my TSX now.
Can you advise any suggestions or recommendations?
On every start up the time goes back to 2013, 11:00pm. The only way to fix it, is go find a wifi, since GPS doesnt work.
I tried contacting XEOWYN, with no luck. I regret buying this.

Might be a long shot, but I'm having issues with my unit and would like to try and update the firmware and/or software. I'm currently on android 6.0, been seeing the newer models are on android 8.1. I tried searching through the joying forum as you suggested with no success.... Is there any possible way that you could lead me to a specific solution? Thank you for your time and good day to you.

Got the same device, but still on Android 5.
Joying firmware gets looped on MCU update, if I remove the folder with MCUs and the update binary, it stops with "OTA package and app package need to be updated at the same time"
Any advice?

A-Sure Android 8.0 problems with ignition and steering wheel control

Hello together!
First of all, I'm totally new into Android Head Units so I don't really have a clue about the different versions etc. Also, I am an iPhone user since almost ten years, so I'm also kind of new to Android
I bought a 9 inch Head Unit with the stated down Specs for my Seat Leon (VW Family) which I directly connected via the original CAN BUS to the radio. It runs just perfectly, except for the following two really annoying problems:
1. The radio ignores the ignition. When I turn on/off the ignition (start/stop the car), nothing happens to the radio. I can normally turn on/off the radio, but the ignition has no effect on the radio - the radio just ignores it.
2. The steering wheel setup doesn't work. In general, the volume up/down, next/previous and phone button works by default, but when I enter the setting for the steering wheel and reset the defaults, the radio doesn't recognize the entries ( I would like to change some buttons).
Does anyone have and idea how to solve this? Are there other apps that can control these settins?
Generel questions: Is there a custom ROM available for this Head Unit? If I can't solve the issue, I would probably send it back and would buy a similar one from another manufacturer. Is there a brand where there are a lot of custom ROMs? Or is it all the same?
Sorry for these beginner questions, but I wasn't able to find real answers to these questions :
Thank you in advance!
Modell: PX5
Android Version: 8.0.0
Kernel Version: 4.4.93+
Build Number: px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5....
MCU version: MTCE_LM_V2.75_1
CPU: 8 core 64-bit CPU Coretex-A53 @ 1.5G
Memory: 3891 MB

I've got quite similar problem in my peugeot 508 - 2012. My head unit is:
Android 8
px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5.170623.007 eng.hct.20180321.165038 test-keys
MCU version: MTCE_MX2_V2.83_1
Kernel Version: 4.4.93+
with canbus:
MH (PA-SS-05)20180402
SS-PA0503271018-2
For: Peugeot 2008
P/N 1801300412
Software: PSA V2.27 005BYPS
I have no control over steering wheel at all...and all rest that supposed to be decoded by canbus decoder. In my case I had to connect power line, in the way that bypasses canbus, otherwise I cannot even boot up the device. I don't know if updating MCU would help. My device is brand new with stock MCU updated to 26 of April 2018. I thought that maybe downgrade would be a solution but I've got no control over my device to enter into a recovery mode, so I don't want to brick my HU completely.

Does it turn off when open the driver door?

No you can not change the function of each button because the head unit takes the commands ready from the can bus module. If you want to make your differences then you must cancel the can bus module and an additional interface that makes the can bus , into resistive commands

What headunit do i have?

Hi everyone,
I have bought a Android headunit from aliexpress for my mercedes B-klass W245 which is a full replacement and looks factory.
The unit is really nice, but i have a few small problems and the seller is not replying anymore.
It runs on Android auto 7.1.2
This is what is days in the info screen:
Model: PX3 (1024x600 S)
Android version: 7.1.2
Security patch: 5 may 2017
Kernel version: 3.0.101+ [email protected] #806 Mon oct 16 11:32:44 CST 2017
Build number: px3-userdebug 7.1.2 NHG47L eng.hct.20171018.184623 test-keys
MCU version: MTCE_CHS_V2.65_1 Sep 15 2017 11:43:18
CPU: ARM [email protected] (x4)
Memory 2048MB
Now the problems i have are the following:
- Radio sound is much louder then all the other, like A2DP. I have installed TomTom from the app store, and the sound level is the same as A2DP which is much softer then the radio. Something i can live with, but still anoying sometimes.
- Sometimes the Bleutooth hangs or just does not want to connect. hard restart from unit is neccesary
- People who call me hear them selfs echo. I do have a external MIC attached to the unit. (would be awesome if i could connect the mic that is alreacy in the car from factory.)
- and last one, i have a reverse camera, which i had to mount up side down, is ther a why in the software to flip that screen?
I think some of these might be solved with a software upgrade, or maybe even upgrade to 8.0 if possible? But i do not know what brand headunit i have...
Hope you guys can help

Nobody?

Well, Hyundai Elantra 2013 same unit as yours.
Same issues except Bluetooth!
I have tried replacing the mic. I purchased the unit through seicane and they sent me an "enhanced" model. Same issues.
Hopefully someone replies, subscribing to this thread in hopes!

Hizpo, mcu: Sm92b1.161111.v1-cyd-b3, build: Alps.ld_kk1.mp10.v1.6

Hi everyone,
I have joined and posted today as I am struggling to find information on my Hizpo headunit, which I am lead to believe is just a generic chinese unit with a bezel and firmware slapped onto it.
I am wanting more from my head unit like better apps, connect to my OBD, resume music when turned on and faster boot time.
The issue I am having is threads mentioning MTCD, etc. I am not sure how to figure this out but I am assuming this is related to the MCU build. If this is true them my build isnt that and is something different.
I have have read a number of threads relating to this MCU and were utterly useless.
The details the head unit provides are:
Model Number: CAR AUDIO
Android Version: 5.1.1 (which I am lead to believe is not true)
Kernel Version: 3.4.67 Wed Apr 19 12:02:15 HKT 2017
Build Number: ALPS.LD_KK1.MP10.V1.6
MCU: SM92B1.161111.V1-CYD-B3
DVD: SM92B1.161201.V1.2-CYD-TTL-12XH-DIG
I want to avoid buying another head unit and playing with that one as the chances of buying the same one is slim and if I get a more known set up I would have to wire that one in.
Thanks for any advice in advance.

For those who are still playing with this model.
After 4 hours thinking my touch screen needing calibrating and discovering the touch panel had failed, i now have the code for the admin menus.
12580
Some handy stuff in there.

How do you get into admin menu? I don't see anything related to admin or settings.

Help Setup 2013 Buick Enclave

Hello everyone.
I have been wanting to get a Android radio for my 2013 Buick Enclave w/ Bose. I have narrowed the Radios down to Eonon, Pumpkin and Xtrons. I think the setup would be the same for either. My main question is I want to keep my steering wheel controls and get it to work with Bose. I went to Crutchfield to see the adapters that would work and they had Datalink Maestro RR Interface Module as the main with iDatalink's ADS HRN-RR-GM5+. I'm just seeing if anyone got these to work with the Android Head Unit. Thanks for you time.
