Hi,
Finally there is a complete working firmware (for sp flash tools) for the bricked or in bootloop hanging SWM8802.
If you're device is working wel, then is my advice have fun with it and do not flash it!!
If there is an update from the manufacturer i will update the post with it.
For the bricked or in bootloop hanging SWM8802 follow these steps:
Code:
1) Download Firmware, sp flash tools and mt8127 vcom usb drivers from the link bellow.
2) Extract the folders.
3) Disconnect the device completely from the power!! (I use a 12v adapter to connect the device at home).
4) Open sp flash tools and choose scatter-loading File (search the one located in the swm8802 firmware folder).
5) Press download button in sp flash tools.
[B][COLOR="Magenta"][COLOR="Red"]"Keep in mind that after connecting the power (in my case adapter),
you only have 2 - 3 seconds to connect the usb cable between the device and computer.
That is why you should already connect the USB cable to the computer or the device before starting to flash"
[/COLOR][/COLOR][/B]
6) Power on you're device.
7) Connect the unit to the computer with a usb cable on the front usb port of you're device.
8) If you have done all the steps right, sp flash tool will start flashing your device.

Since using this firmware update on the SWM8802, has it gotten bricked or stuck in a bootloop at all again? Or is it working 100% perfectly fine? Any issues you're aware of? Thanks!

I have the idea that my stereo is working beter, i used the option format in SP flash tools. The only thing is that i needed to find a navigation software because the IGO wasnt there anymore.
No issues or something that i have seen or feel in this rom. The only problem is, i dont like that i can not turn off the beep from the touchscreen in the settings.
my device does not work now does not turn on, Please help with another firmware for my swm8802
thank you
Hi, I have a similar problem with my SWM 8806 unit. I follow all the steps published in this thread but the SP Flash Tool can´t download the firmware (MT8127). It seems like a problem with the Drivers. I have installed the PreLoader USB VCOM, DA USB VCOM, USB PORT and USB VCOM in a Windows 7 laptop.
This is the log:

Somebody know what I´m doing wrong ?

It is exactly the same with the original but faster.
And it is rooted it has super user su.
You can change the background of the radio if you change the backgroud of the default launcer the same background goes to radio.
I will try to make a video just give me time

Does this work on the swm 8802? just run the update?
Anyone tested this with 8802?
Thanks for this info, your english is not that bad!
If have been struggling to flash my swm8802, been following all the steps/downloaded the drivers/scatter files and flash tool.
Still unable to get the flash tool to run, could it be because my unit is still in the vehicle connected to power cord? Could it be that the drivers isnt installed correctly?(code 10 error with yellow sign on driver) or is it as simple perhaps the usb cable is faulty? When plugging in laptop(windows10) I dont see or hear any sign that a unit is plugged in, should I see something?
Sorry for lengthy Questions

To make flash tool to work you must first take out the unit from the car. Then have ready an external power and a usb cable plugged to the pc. Start the flash tool press download and then plug the power to the unit and immediately the usd. Flash tool must start downloading

Even my unit died after the procedure that seemed to have been successful. I can't even run the procedure again as it gives me a "DRAM" error (4032). Barnard27 managed to solve the problem? Who could help me? Thank you!

It is probably in a boot loop. What did you install or do to get it in that boot loop?
If you didn't do anything, you might try to rest the unit or disconnect if from 12V and wait at least 2 hours.
And edit your first post to change the title. I assume it is "resetting" and not "resting"

1- no I didn't do anything to it. It was working perfectly and I had to switch the car off and then turned it on the boot loop issue started.
2- how do I disconnect it from 12v? Sorry but I am have zero experience when it comes to cars.
3- and you are right it's resetting but I have no idea how to edit the title of thread.

2- Get it out of the dashboard and disconnect the harness or the power plug or take the fuse out.
3- like I said. Edit the first post. It will also make the title editable.
Do you have a small reset hole in the front of your unit? If so, try to reset it with a "pointy" thing like a needle or something else.
Try what surfer63 says, because he has way more experience than most of the people about Android Head Units on this board. If all else fails try what I did after having a bootlooping HU for nearly 4 months :S
Had the same issue. The HU (with 2 USB ports) was some unknown brand called Funrover loosely based on Joying firmware. What worked for me was
- Download the suitable Joying firmware : joyingauto.com/blog/post/joying-intel-sofia-android-car-stereo-software-update
- Extract it on the PC and then copy the firmware files on to a freshly (FAT32) formatted USB drive
- Plug in the USB drive to your HU USB port (1?)
- Since your HU is already bootlooping, plug in a keyboard and use the following key combination> Alt + Print Scr + tapping i (or e, both worked for me) to get in to recover
- Ideally the recovery option will detect the plugged in USB and start reflashing the firmware so that you will be able to use the HU again.
Hello! I recently purchased a navigation for my Golf 5 2008, it's a mekede 188l 8227L but i have an annoying problem...it's not keeping settings, if i make a change on the screen, idk, the wallpaper for example, after restarting it(removing the key from the ignition) and powering on, the settings are like defaults...even the language setting are resetting....what can i do?
And also i have a problem with the parking sensors...i have installed the rear camera, it works when i put ihe car in reverse mode but the sensors are not working, it's not displaying anything.
Thanks!
Hi, I think the wiring is wrong u use the ignition line but you must use the battery line to have continuous power. Sry for my bad English I hope u understand a little bit.
The ignition line is to power/boot up the head unit the battery line is to keep little bit power for the standby.
Regards
Aggro82
Okay, but if i connect those wires, it will drain my battery?
Connect the yellow wire to the battery 12+ constant, and the red wire to the ignition (Acc) wire

Hello!
I've recently got a Silverstrong Android 9 Head Unit: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32822937592.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.328e4c4dWZb7Fi
Can someone help me on how to get adb access or a custom recovery (mainly for rooting purpose)?
I have to mention that I've tried connecting a notebook with adb via and USB cable (male USB type A to USB type A), but it seems nothing happens. I can tell that the unit's USB ports are working for USB sticks.
I have also tried some combination implying the reset hole present on the front, but I couldn't make it work.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Edit: I have to mention that the unit packs a MediaTek MT8321M if it matters.
Just an update: I have followed the instructions provided here for rooting: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76725981&postcount=740 . Everything went well until I tried to reboot the device. Now it is stuck in a bootloop (it passes the kernel bootlogo but it is stuck on Android bootlogo) and I really need to access its recovery. It would be my only hope to try to unbrick it. Unfortunately the only physical switch of the unit is just a reset hole on the front which will cut the power right away (tried multiple pressing combinations, none worked). I really need to enter recovery mode and I am pretty desperate, so any advice is welcome. Thanks!
I couldn't make it boot into recovery mode, but it did boot when I placed on a usb stick a file named "ZQ_MTK1B_UPDATE_HeXinDa_EN_8003_08152051.zip" and then it started to flash it automatically. After the flash completed, the unit recovered from bootloop, but now it seems there is no sound and no radio. I posted all of this just in case somebody ever will have to deal with same kind of trouble. It seems the unit is actually branded as alps ZQ8003 and I will ask the seller for some firmware/more technical info.
Hi, I have the same problem. Did you make it?
Hi!!
I have an audio car player model TS9 with android 10. It worked fine until 4 days ago.
Actually when I turn on the car, the unit stucks in android logo. (Like the photo)
I tried put an update in fat32 usb, but isnt read by the unity.
I think that this maybe work in recovery mode but I dont know how to enter in this model.
Can you help me pls?
