I was bought an Head unit on aliexpress,i bought head unit for spotify and waze or google maps .
and when i try to root it , the front panel control stopping to work .
So i flash headunit with rom , but i no look the version in setting ...
I think is MTCD , because it's RK3188 cpu , and i only success to install a " Dupdate.img " , " update.img" can't installing , but i'm not sure about that ... Name of the motherboard is MTC_RK3188_REV0.3 2015-09-24 .
But is not my problem , my problem it's i try lot of rom , like original , Malaysk rom , jy rom .
Is it always the same issue , the head unit freeze and are very very very slow , google maps can't work because i crashes , Spotify and waze a so slow who i can't use , some time spotify music stoping 3-4 sec like a overload of cpu , but is only app open ! I do antutu test : 23000 , but app like spotify boot in some time 1min !

Maybe it will be helpful if you upload screenshot of your system information. (CPU, MCU, etc,.)

He most likely bought a MTCD_KD HeadUnit. There is a French board of Peugeot enthusiasts with a guy promoting this unit.
It's true that the unit fits nicely in the car, but no one on the thread talks about the unit being slow as hell.
Not talking about new Intel 2Gb MTCD boards (because I never had one) MTCD unit is a complete failure, they never should have pushed Android 5.1.1 to the RK3188, and 1Gb ram is just not enough. I suggest sticking with MTCB Android 4.4 units.
@theo59310 your chance of getting the best out of your HU is the latest stock JY. You can get some improvements by tweaking the CPU governor to 1.6Ghz. You can also look at da_anton Rom over here

or if you have some Linux knowledge build your own rom with the Rom builder tool over here

NOTHING will EVER run well on an RK3188. That chip is a complete piece of trash.
If you can, try to SELL that head unit, and replace it with one of the newer Intel/2GB units, like a Joying JY-UL128N2. These newer units work VERY well. Fast and reasonably stable.

Is any 2GB unit will be good? When I bought my unit, I tough 4core and 1GO would be enough for basic use. But no, it's slow. Also, it works bad when it's +30°C or -30°C and it need 1 minute to start! Welcome in 1995.

it's probably a very old PX3 (rk3188)
choose a PX5+4Go Ram it's better.

Is it possible to replace the PX3 by a PX5 without replacing the entire unit?

If you are able to confirm your unit has a PX3 coreboard (you can check that in settings>about this unit see if Model name starts with PX3). Then yes, it is possible to replace the coreboard only. It's the size of a credit card, doesn't require much skills besides using a screwdriver, and can be bought at roughly 80€. Just search for PX5 coreboard in your fav chinese etailer

Thinking about buying a HuiFei MCU-MX unit - can someone answer a few ?easy queries

Hi guys,
I am quite new to the whole world of Android head-units. I've found a unit that fits my car and before I buy it I was just wondering if you guys could help me out a bit.
The unit is: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Android-4...RE-/281909711323?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368
It states that it is a RK3088 unit, although it must be RK3166 if it's quad-core, right?
https://youtu.be/DK4O1XGn0nM?t=3m13s - looking at the description it seems it's a HuiFei type MCU MX.
I note that the XDA repository doesn't include firmware updates for this MCU - does this mean that I won't ever be able to update the firmware? Would the custom ones (Masaryk?) work on this MCU?
I've also read that the microphone is pants, which is why every seller is including some-kind of an external one, in this case a bluetooth one. How does a microphone like that get powered? Is it a difficult to get power to it when installing?
My apologies if this is the wrong forum.
Hello friend,
This is Nicole from Kaigele,which is a 9 years proffesional car dvd player factory.
Thank you for your attention to our Huifei units.But sorry to tell you that,i have checked your attached link,it's not from our factory.
Sorry i can not help you more.
Have a nice day!
Best regards
Nicole

Help on Head Unit Selection

Hi all,
I am currently looking to replace my car head unit on my mitsubishi lancer 2009 from stock to an android based unit.
I went thru a lot of thread and info in this forum and narrowed down my search to a few unit, but i'll be honest I am a bit overwhelmed with all the model and version available on top of all the information available.
can anyone help me figure the best option available ?
so far those model seem to be the most popular
Pumpkin Android 6.0
amazon.com/dp/B01N9QH9X3
Erisin ES6041U or Erisin ES5646U
erisin.com/erisin-es6041u-7-universal-8core-android-60-car-stereo-gps-system-8core-autoradio_p775.html
.erisin.com/erisin-es5646u-62-nissanuniversal-2-din-octa-core-android-60-car-multimedia-stereo-dvd-gps-sat-nav-wifi-dab_p783.html
Joying US-JY-UM135N2
carjoying.com/joying-new-android-6-0-car-stereo-with-gps-navigation/android-6-0-car-stereo-2-din/joying-us-warehouse-2017-new-developed-ram-2gb-rom-32gb-factory-car-radio-replacement-new-android-6-0-1-marshmallow-system-pip-auto-radio-7-inch-double-2-din.html
Ownice C500
ownice.com/Pro_Head%20Unit%20for%202din%20universal_449.html
is there one of those that really stand out from the others ?
would they all fit a standard double din ?
can I expect to run into any major issue setting this up in my car ?
bottomline, I am looking for a headunit I can use for radio, internet music like spotify, navigation like waze or google map and support for backing camera in america.
any help to figure out what is the best fit would be amazing.
Thanks a lot!
Erisin have very bad reviews, seems that their devices are quickly dying and they don't provide support and it seems that the FM reception is not that good. Joying are well supported but I read that the audio amplifier is not that good, Ownice and Pumpkin are popular but I do not know much (not sure about the components)
I like my C500 octacore 2GB so far. Very fast and everything I want is working fine.
All the apps I've tried so far are working great including the ones you mention above.

I CAN'T change the wallpaper of my Seicane car radio...

Hello everyone, i buy this radio and I have several doubts, the first is that it cant change the wallpaper, it puts me action not allowed, does anyone know how I can solve this? only let me put 7 predetermined wallpapers, and there is no option to put a custom, my second doubt is that this radio supposedly brings bluetooth but there is no option to search for devices, just let me connect from the mobile to listen to music, there is some solution? I wanted to know finally if i can root and put a newer android or if I exist an update for this model, I have not found anything in the forum, thank you very much! This is the radio model that I have.

Same issue with Android 8.0
Same here. Suddenly I can't change wallpapers except those seven wallpapers preinstalled.

Hello everyone. I received an updated Firmware directly from seicane for their head unit. This is Android 10 update for the 2/32 GB unit. Everything seems to be working great so far on unit. If you would like to try it for yourself please feel free to download and install. I'm not too tech savvy so if you have any questions I'll answer them the best I can. Thought I would share for anyone to update their own unit if possible
PLEASE BE ADVISED YOU USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!
I will not be held responsible for any damages done to your own unit.
Thank you!

Bosion AC8257

Hi there!
I've bought a Bosion HU (4gb ram 64 rom chipset ac8257) and works really well compared to my previous unit (PX5 2gb ram). I've registered at 4PDA forum to get some information about software but I can't find too much info about this unit..Any experience with this kind of software? I get used to the PX5 units so now I'm completty lost about this new chipset.....MCU...
Link to my product
https://es.aliexpress.com/item/1005002120465337.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.484463c0bL1okN
Thanks in advance.
hey. i know its an old thread but I ve got the bosion HU.., already followed the almost dead thread at 4PDA Forum also. This head unit is crap, honestly spoken, do you have an idea if there are alterntive firmwares maybe from other manufactures that would work with the boison units? my BT calling feature stopped working after last update what has been talked about at 4PDA also. In addition I do not like much the apprearnce of the start-screen and many other minor issues too... now I am in hope that somebody has found a good working alternatively firmware file that is way better than the boison one? sorry for my bad english..
Hi! Same situation on my side.....I've tried another Android units before and this one it's not bad....I've not found another compatible firmware....If you find something please post it
I've just purchased this ac8257 b200 unit and I'm NOT loving it. My px5 with frequent wifi dropouts is preferable.
Does anyone else have an issue with the accessibility downloaded services being disabled after a short period? I've added the apps to be excluded from Battery optimisation and ensured battery saver is off and even made the apps device admins if the app can be but within an hour the services are disabled.
Also, Google voice typing seems to be like the old android 6 version with the big grey rectangle covering the lower half of the screen while listening for voice input and if it fails because the internal mic is crap I can't get it to cancel to go back to the keyboard. I usually have to exit the app and relaunch it.
UPDATE: Apparently Duraspeed is a separate task manager/battery optimisation app that comes with these units. I've now tried turning that off as well as enabling it and adding the apps as exclusions and the downloaded services are still disabled after a short period.
Google Maps also runs much slower than my previous 4Gb px5 unit.
You have probably found this post already but I got an update for my unit here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...with-android-11-android-auto-wireless.4467385
8257 / AC8257 / AC8257_DEMO Android 11 & Android 12 with MCU update​
8257 / AC8257 / AC8257_DEMO Android 11 & Android 12 with MCU update
So, I did some work and found Android 11 & Android 12 for the 8257 and both works, great. Along with the MCU update. The AC8257_Android_scatter.txt, found in both android files are known as project ac8257_demo, with platform MT6761. I have found...
