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?

I just bought an Android head unit from Pumpkin Audio http://www.autopumpkin.com/new-products/pumpkin-quad-core-android-4-4-kitkat-car-stereo-double-din-6-2-inch-in-dash-gps-navigation-system-support-3g-wifi-odb2-dvr-air-play-7-color-button-indicator.html
Everything's working fine for the most part but I want to root it to fix a few minor inconveniences. Pretty much the same issues most people have around here(connect to my OBD2 bluetooth device, map steering wheel buttons for 3rd party applications, etc) but I can't find any information on how to root it or even any ROMs for this head unit or it's CPU.
Does anybody know If/how I can root this or even install a new ROM (I don't mind either one)?
Thinks in advance.

You can install any of the pre-rooted ROMs that match up to your CPU(RK3188) and screen resolution(800x480).

Thanks for your reply. I had seen that thread before but didn't see any ROMs for RK3188. There are some in the repos mentioned there but the rooted ones are either for RK3066 or just don't say which CPU they're for. The closest I've found is on the list of Boo's ROMs on the Custom section of the Google Drive repo which says it's KK4.4.4 and rooted but it doesn't say if it's for RK3066 or RK3188. Am I missing something?
Also, I don't know yet if my unit is KGL, Klyde, RoadMaster, GS, JY or MD yet. For what I gather from your post, I can install any ROM as long as it's for the right CPU so, Assuming Boo's ROMs are for RK3188, I don't need to bother checking which kind of unit I have, am I right?

Make sure you match up your CPU(RK3188) and screen resolution(800x480) and you will be fine!
Same for me with the GF. I'll try Malaysk's ROM tomorrow and see how it goes.

the KD-C0410 model uses a DUAL CORE Processor RK3066, you can't use RK3188 ROM's, the RK3188 is a QUAD CORE processor.
in this thread you can find all the development for the RK3066 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660662
also remember that most of Pumpkin stereos are made by KLYDE, so you will not find the name Pumpkin look by KLD

That's exactly what I ended up doing. Malaysk's ROM has been working fine so far since I flashed it on saturday and I was able to change/fix everything I needed.
thanks!
Do any of you know if the ram can be upgraded in these Chinese head units? I know inside the Joying head unit there is what looks like a ddr3 ram slow. I am unsure if the Pumpkin variant has one as well.
If it does, in theory it should be able to be upgraded.
I asked the Pumpkin Auto people if this was possible and they said no. I am thinking they may have said this cause the want the buyer to buy the ram from them instead of using a 3rd party stick of ram.
Anyone care to weigh in on this?
please delete, sorry

If anyone could help tell me more about this unit and how I can get out of this software lock I'm in. It has something that does not allow me to access the droid menus at all with the exception of a limited old cheap menu I'm familiar with. I've seen it on the old $5 net10 phones. Here's the unit I bought and here are the menus I have access to and the listing of the exact same unit stating 5.1.1 etc. etc.
I would like to update it to 6.0 or even a cleaner 5.1.1 I tried a JOYING 5.1.1 but I couldn't get it to find the update. I need to get this unit running on something I can work with. I can not pick which apps to boot with, to default wifi to on my to my hotspot, can not change the radio to have the "next" botton on SWC change to next preset and it's driving me insane.
Please don't think I haven't looked around for tens of hours.

Google solely for the mcu. I have a bosion hu (awesome hu, terrible tech support) but it had same mcu as a brand with regular updates and I just updated os and mcu without a problem.
Thanks Toebab,
I've searched every combo of every version of mcu and arm and anything else I've been able to find. I'm going to run a hardware info app tomorrow. I'm only posting this because I've poured my heart out already. I do have a file explorer I'm going to try and further google on.
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.
Android 6.0 Single 1 DIN 7" HD GPS NAV System Car Stereo CD DVD Player Radio Bluetooth MP3 Music Mirror Link WIFI
Android 6.0.1
CPU Allwinner T3 coretex-A7 1.2GHZ
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!

Hey, im very interested in trying this! I have similar BINIZE hu with same specs, T3 2/32gb 10.1" screen MCU v4
will this work with mine?
Hi, I know personally from experience and reading thousands of posts over the years that it doesnt matter what 'brand name' a unit is but it's manufacturer.
That said my friend has asked me to help fix his head unit, which is possibly bricked. It lights up etc and blinks on reset, but what ever method or combination I try it stays the same. Unfortunatly there's no way to see the device specs with a dead? blank screen to know what to flash with.
Ive had it apart and its a PX3 Rockchip 3188 but that's all I can tell. From searching a identical model, shape style etc, it could well have been sold under the erisin brand. But as its a few years old, my friend has no idea which 'bay seller he bought from to ask.
I've downloaded the latest ver RC factory tool, but before I screw around, I thought best to ask advice before making things worse.
Question is, is there any way to better identify the make from looking at components inside so I know which mcu to try?
Or is there any 'universal' software that could identify the unit from its current state.
The unit is out of car, on the bench.
Thanks
Is there anyway to find out what firmware this device uses please
Update:
After much searching and checking I've found a little bit of info that may help me identify which manufacture made it and what firmware is needed.
The unit is branded Erisin. Model no is ES4848V. It is a PX3 quad core with 2gb / 16gb memory.
If anyone has or had this unit please let me know mcu / firmware info.
Hi All, first post,
1. I did a search on google and XDA for key info I obtained from the unit, no luck.
2. The unit resembles this unit - but mine is 10.1 Inch but the interface and apps are basically identical to this unit.
- https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/TS18-9inch-4G-2din-Car-Radio_1600324427529.html
3. Also, unit is Android 10, which is quite old, if upgradeable, would it make a difference to the look and feel?
I tried using the supplier / installer but he is not forthcoming with info, not sure why so hoping someone can point me in the direction, the unit has a mold that fits my Toyota Rav4 2017.
The goal is, to find out how to update the bluetooth / phone app (it sucks) as a starting point.
finally, here are some pics of the unit pre-install and hardware info in settings.
Thanks in advance

Well... don´t even think that you would be able to upgrade Android to a newer one. It´s already the current actual Android version.
You really should blame the vendor that BT is a mess. That is nothing the forum can help with. Your MCU is special for Toyota and you won´t find a matching update for your special unit.
Go back to the seller and ask for an update otherwise you open a dispute on Alibaba. This is the one and only way to get them start working.
Sorry, but these special units with this MCU, that is not easy going.
