Hello everyone,
I have recently bought a XTRONS headunit (from the box, the full name is ICE/HU/PR98MTVL) - I can't post a link from the XTRONS website, but the model is PR98MTVL.
The car that was installed on is a 2014 Volkswagen Jetta.
I have 2 issues with it that I couldn't figure out lurking on the web:
1. The buttons on the bottom bezel are mixed up: the POWER button is acting like a home button, the HOME and the VOL- is acting like a mute/unmute button, the RETURN button dims the screen and the VOL+ is changing the radio station.
I saw some posts about remapping the buttons, but to no success - I've entered the "Touch area keys" setting, but couldn't change a thing. The only button position that works is LEFT (the others just make the touchscreen work in mirror mode - when pressing a button on the left, the one on the right gets activated).
All buttons are "RESERVED" and when trying to press one of the bezel button, it simply does as stating above.
2. Splitscreen isn't working and there isn't an option for activating/changing it.
After reading several posts, I came to the conclusion that I need to use a custom ROM - but couldn't find anything that matches my current tablet.
Could you help me with those issues? I don't necessarily want to change the ROM, but anything that works.
This is the information shown in the "About" section:
Android version: 8.1.0
MCU version: T8.3.19-36-13-E53201-180827
System version: V9.3.1_20181012.103419_MLT5
Please let me know if there is anything more that I can do.
Thank you for your time!
Bump. Maybe I have some luck

regards Béla
Hello
Guess I'm in the same boat.
I own an Xtrons PB78MWTP and its MCU is T8.3.19 and system MLT5.
And I searched almost all internet for root, custom roms.
Can't find nothing about these device's
I don't even know if it is MTCD/E or MTCB.
And maybe is similar to PX3 or PX5 devices??

Hi All
I recently had an issue with my unit (in another thread) which I was able to solve by reflashing my 2GB Joying Single DIN 6.0.1 unit with the Sep 1 firmware..
Now the only issue I have is none of my left panel buttons on the screen are working anymore? I have a single din detachable screen with a column of buttons on the left side (power, home, nav, and volume)... and none of them respond to touch?? Is there a setting I need to adjust for this?
Thanks

Go into Car Settings app, and then go to the advanced settings (it will ask for a pin), enter 3368, then towards the bottom, there should is a place where you can assign the keys. I don't remember the exact names for these menus but just look for it, it should be pretty easy to find and fix,
Hello,
I just bought his 9" Unit. Could anyone please help me to identify this unit and the Firmwares compatible with this unit. I also need the Password for Factory Setting, please.
Thank you and Appreciate your help...
Bump!
looks like any 8227L android unit that is faking it's android version it is not android 10 but 8.1.. good news is that it does not fake the RAM size (4 gig)... but is does seem to fake the internal storage size (12 Gig)
you have a head unit with physical buttons.. (volume dail, home, back, next etc etc)
password for factory menu should be 8888 and for startup screen logo 5678
most 8227L button fw's should work, just use the ones that are for landscape mode. more and more come available for portrait (tesla style) head units.

Yes... It cannot be Android 10! Is there any suggestion for Firmware Please. Also, I tried in 8888... But it didn't work.
Is Button version of 8227L compatible with this unit?
no you'll need the touch version.
the buttons version means it is made for units with physical volume, home, back, mode, navi etc buttons on the unit itself.
the touch version is for units with the row of touch buttons you have on the left.
both versions have swc (steering wheel controls) in them.

Thanks mate. Is there any sites I can download the firmware for this unit. The Firmware in this unit is a crap... It doesn't even have an equalizer in it! I really appreciate your help

Hi, I have this chinese Android unit :
Model: 8227l
Build version: alps-mp-o1.mp5
Mcu: TS907.190518(W)
Mtc: ????????
Even if is some kind of fake, everything was working good, android auto with https://forum.xda-developers.com/android-auto/mtcb-software-development/app-running-android-auto-unit-t3537547 , swc buttons, radio, audio, open doors alert, everything. But at a certain point, swc buttons stopped working. Now they work only in the stock swc configuration app, but then if you press buttons nothing happens, no volume up or down, no play/pause, nothing.
I tried to analyze the issue but everything is locked and I cannot even access adb....
Try to search a lot the forum and internet (russian forum ) but did no make any step forward.
I am a developer and would not be scared about writing some code for this unit (Mcu / Mtc) but need some hint regarding how to proceed with this issue.
Any help would be REALLY welcome, any suggestions?
hi, did yous solve this?

Hi.
I have the same version as you. Unfortunatly I can't help you. I just know that the swc are related to the canBus box.
But I would like to know if, by any chance, you have this HU installed in a Peugeot.
Do you have any idea what is this?

Hi!!! I would like to be a develloper as well! My unit is made of 2 parts: The radio and the Screen. Is installed (and perfectly fitting) a Peugeot 307 Phase 2 (I guess phase 1 are the cars with a smal display for temperature and time. Phase 2 are the cars that had a GPS originaly, and a upper screen - not a display). For me, the problem is that the software dont allow you to choose wich car type you have. I can select Peugeot 307 but not the type. My CanBus is HiWorld. It says 307, but not specific model. I would like this changes: When I press the button for OnBoard Computer, It should go to the trip menu. Also, the car Settings (like AC and door lock) are not working and they blink (selected, notSelected).
There is a miscomunication there. I cant find help!!!!
I have a 12.3" Android head unit. It does not have any physical buttons except a recessed reset button on side. I was playing with developer options and made a stupid error that changed the resolution/rotation of the screen. I am looking to revert back, but screen is black. I can tell the screen is now horizontal as the pop up parking sensor is now on bottom of screen and I was able to press the lower right side of screen to tilt unit up and down. I can start media via the steering wheel buttons and advance music by pressing left of upper middle part of screen. No other screen functions work or come up.
I've updated the firmware from USB, but it did not change the resolution.
Is there a way to boot directly to the developer options from a USB device?
Alternatively, is there a way to reset to factory settings? I've hit the reset button with no luck. Tried to long hold reset as well.
Other option is to reinstall OS from USB, but have no idea how or if possible.
Appreciate any guidance.
Nobody knows what you own out of the hundreds of different devices, architectures and factories that make them.

You really should post the information about your unit:
Currently used MCU
Original firmware version
Current used firmware
Seller of the unit
...but one thing seems to be clear:
You flashed not the right firmware for your special unit.
Get back to the seller and ask him for the correct firmware, flash it and that should fix the issue.
These big screens have their own firmware and you should not flash any firmware if it does not come from your seller.
Apologies. This unit it from China and is a tilt screen designed for Range Rover Sport L494 Series. Has Android OS 10. I don’t know where to find the model #.
I received the firmware file from the seller. , but it appears it did not reinstall the developer tools/ options. They just sent me a different bin file to try.
New bin file reset to factory. Problem resolved. Thanks for replying.
Hi,
I have done a factory reset to my radio and now the left buttons stop working... Only the screen buttons ate working... Any ideas to solve this problem?
Thanks
Hi, ask your seller to give you files (for factory settings) needed to import physical buttons into device again.
Minute of work and then restart.
Oh... Really... It need some files? Hope the seller send it to me.
I completely noob on this time on rádios... Android
I have those files but model of your device must be close to mine - 8227L ALPS FF5000
I'll reply as soon as possible.
This files how do we use it? Thanks.

By the photos you posted this device is similar that I'm using in my car, TS10 or TS18 topway branded, it must have option to update system and MCU online, so do an update online (car settings/factory settings/update).
If updating does not help try calibration of screen (activated by pressing all five fingers on screen I think). There is no physical buttons on this device and it must have canbus box right ?

Everything it's working now... Except the remap of the steering wheel... I can't config which function will do each button
This is the main objective 4 me.
When I go to the config menu, press start the config and when press the button on steering wheel nothing happened.
Only volume works and the doors too... If I open a door a imagem pop up on the screen

Try it now please
which canbus settings was prior of changing ? SIMPLE or RAISE or HIWORLD ?
I think this wrong settings caused this. Rerturn old state but do not change first option , If canbus sticker on the box is simple then it is simple in first option - get it ? If it is something else choose this one and then choose software for device and model.

I have same problem but my unit is V1c 1G - after activating can bus it made APK installation and then the side buttons doesn't work. Here is a photo of unit which is for a Ford Focus MK2.5
Any help much appreciated

Choose right software for your device and canbus (read which canbus is from sticker on canbus box and then choose from list like if it is RAISE canbus in first section choose RAISE, then in second choose car model and then on next PUBLIC)

This is my can bus box - doesn´t tell anything about type of can bus. But is it related to can bus? My steering wheel buttons work but not the buttons on the head. I would imagine that it is something else.
Regards Chris
Here is a photo of the set up. Steering wheel buttons work, center console info works. Side buttons on head unit doesn't work.

Ths is ok, but must ask your seller for update of files for physical buttons, they only have it. You will not find this on net.
