After searching al lot on this forum I can't seem to get some answers (maybe because there is a LOT of info!) I am trying to identify my Android Headunit so I can make some changes. First of all some info about the unit:
I bought the unit half a year ago from aliexpress for a Suzuki Swift (>2011).
- Android 4.4.2 OS, HD 1024*600 Pixels Capacitive Screen.
- Cortex A9 Quad Core 1.6GHz CPU.
- DDR3 1GB RAM, 16GB NAND Flash.
- Built-in WiFi
Processor type: Quadcore-R16 1.6G
Android-versie: 4.4.2
MCU version: 5.3.17-1-10-610101-151112
System version: 4.5.3_20151027
DVD version: 2.13.15-860mc-150417
USB Debugging password protected password: "[email protected]".
Factory Reset / Developer Options password: "7890"
Extra Settings password: "123456"
I need help with 2 issues:
- I would like to update is to a newer OS. Is this possible?
- Since I have a pair of rear headrest monitors in my car, there is a second thing I would like to change. ONLY when I use the DVD function the external monitors get an videosignal. Usualy this is no problem because this way my kids can watch a movie and I can use the navigation app. BUT when I want to show them media from, for instance, youtube of a USB stick, there is no videosignal sent to the monitors and the can only view it on my headunit . Is there a way to cure this? Maybe a way to emulate the DVD function?
- Is there a way to change the current orange illumination colour? (anyone know if there are a lot of led's and if it's do-able to solder red ones instead?)
Ik really hope someone can help! Thanks in advance!
video issue on Android head unit
HI i purchased my head unit in january of this year from a chinese manufacturer it works fine with one exception and that is i recently purchased a pair of head rest to add to my vehicle so that my kids can see movies ect. but my surprise only dvd shows on the monitors i checked the monitors against another source and they work fine so it took me back to the head unit i've reached the issue over the internet and found many others have the same issue.
Can anyone help solve the problem as it seems to be a programing/software issue i could be wrong. but i really need your help.
Model number S07
Android version 4.4.4.
MCU version MTCB- KSP-V2.85
CPU ARM Cortex-A9 @1.6 Ghz
Anyone got an idea on what password I need to put in to enter to the "drive safe" menu ? Thank you

I have bought a non branded Android head unit and would like to change the radio app cause it is way too colorful, I have no idea what as the to do and where to start if anyone can help. Thanks alot, also it looks like my head unit won't connect to my hotspot at all times, I have to turn WiFi off then on for it to work.
Anyone?
wolf1306, "non branded" does not say enough to be able to give an advice. Please post your device data which one can find under Settings -> About tablet (or alike).
As to WiFi hotspot - I had similar experience with Joying 4G/WiFi dongle. Replacing it with Huawei E8372 helped to completely forget about any problem (same SIM).
Android 4.4.4
Could cortex A9
GPU mali-400 mp4
1024x600
So it is not similar to Joying (Intel Atom x3) and using Joying's FWs and additional soft like Radio mods is, as I believe, unlikely. Hope other brand/make users could give further advice.
I have the same prpblem.
In my case the android head unit is a "non branded" chinese one.
- Model Number: AC 8227
- Android version: 5.1.1
- Kernel version: 3.4.35
- MCU version: IAP36/CM02.00.00.02_161223_15:24
As I have googled, tha radio app is linked with the MCU version. As far as I know, you must install a radio app that works with you MCU.
So it is not easy...
Anyone hace ideas?
Thanks in advance
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+

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
Does anyone have and idea how to solve this? Are there other apps that can control these settins?

I've purchased an android head unit from seicane for 2012 subaru forester (9" headunit with trim with vent holes). I know they're just a seller.
I'm looking for help as to what manufacturer and what mcu version. So that I can update the mcu.
Reason being the screen is not responsive.
Had to use keyboard and mouse to go into settings.
I will include what was said on the screen under system settings and about device below
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm very new to the android head unit. Only had it for less than a week.
System setting
Appver: K20M_K2001M_NWD_GB-20180517.14.30.N0023t3

Thank you very much

I think joying is having this issue.
top 10% of touch screen wont work.
They gave an update that removes mcu google service.
Not sure whats going on.
Android kills touch screen if its out of date or what?
Hi all,
Just recently purchased this unit: EINCAR Android 10 single din (Model no on the box is HTT-AD9505) I would post a link but can't due to my post count!
The sole purpose of having the unit is for me to be able to view live data from my ECU via an app connected to the bluetooth module on the ECU. My issue is that I can only seem to connect to phones. The settings don't have the usual bluetooth settings options I am used to seeing in android settings, the only place you can access anything bluetooth related is in the units music or phone app. Is this likely to be by design with the firmware? Can I change the firmware to something different that can attach to any old bluetooth device?
The units about device page has the following info:
Android Version: 10
Hardware Info: Quad Core AllWinner - ROM 32GB - DDR3 1GB - 1024x600 - b2
Kernel Version: Linux 3.10.65 - Wed Jan 8 111:19:29 CST 2020
OS Version: HTTC0101-N78-2.4.4.3.12 - IVT - 200108
MCU Version: STM8-20200316-74-HHT-32
BT Version: 3A03
The app I am using is VEMs Display (vems.hu/android/) and the bluetooth device is communicating serial over bluetooth.
Thanks in advance for any help
After trying to install and run Bluetooth scanners, I now realize that the unit is blocking anything that isn’t the pre-installed bloatware from accessing Bluetooth. I now feel I have a giant paper weight!

we have same situation with same car radio and same BT problem, i ask everywhere without a valid answer.
maybe the only difference from us are:
2gb/32gb (instead 1/32in your device)
mcu: stm8-2019 (instead your 2020 in your device)
and maybe something else

Hello all,
I am new here and came to ask you for some help with my new TS18 head unit. I could not find the right model but here is the serial number i found: 3t101003
I bought android multimedia for honda accord 7th generation with these characteristincs:
- Platform information: TS18
- CPU: UIS8581A (8x1.6 GHz)
- MCU version: Ts10-1.1.100-10-A49889-220511 (GD330)
- System version: TS18-2.2_20220412.183840_WINDOW_THEME1
- Resolution: 1280x720
- CarSetting version: V1.0.0.20220330
- Android version: 11
The problem is that I cant see my AC information of the screen. Already tried everything that I found here and in other forums and videos (swiping wires or choose settings) but it still don't work. Actually when I am trying to save the model select settings i get the error message "This model is not MCU". I am attaching a photo of the error. Do you ever seen that before for these chinise head units?
I am not sure if this is important but originally the car had honda navigation system and it was with dual climate zone controll.

Check the CANbox settings in the settings menu.

I tired from Factory Settings -> Select Model and select all Honda accords I found but every time this is the result.
Are there an additional CANbox settings somewhere?

If the CAN-box does not support your AC settings, you will not be able to get it working.
May be wrong CAN-Box. Ask the seller for sending the right one for your specific car.
...and may be your head unit is not able to get the information from the CAN. Ask the seller, no one can help here.
Thank you for the help, I will investigate with the seller and update the post after I have some news.
