Customization needed - Android Head-Units

Hi guys,
I have this android unit installed in my car, and i would like to know if there is possible to make customization to the UI (remove for example Car info tab - not working for me) or make it so when i click on it will open a specific app (like torque or something) to make it useful, or simply remove the item from the UI.
Can i do such a thing, will require a lot of codding or something?
Please see the attached images to know better about my unit and hopefully you guys can help me out.
Thanks a lot guys for your time!

This is to prevent spamming.
Just mention which unit you have. You don't mention brand, type, OS version. etc.

It looks like a PX3 MTCD unit.
Look at this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...nt/rom-malaysk-roms-mtcd-mtce-device-t3693509
or one of the other PX3 threads in that sub-forum

I have that unit myself fitted in a Porsche 996, and very please with it.
You can use malaysk roms but just make sure you choose the correct one.
800x480 for rk3188. Link below

If you are unsure about anything, ask before you attempt to do any updates.

Ill check out that ROM, i didn't think it was suitable as it is for RK3066/RK3188, and the specs for TD696A state "CPU → RKPX3"
Thanks

Hello,

The response of the volume +/- buttons is good ?
You can play music while you run others applications in the foreground ?

Hi Compbuilds,
I'm interested in buying this DR7062 made by szwinmark which is also known as ES9062B in erisinwholesale. (sorry I can't join links or image 'cause not yet 10 messages)
It has the same RPX3 but its MCU serial number doesn't begin by MTC but LM-AND841-8015v1.21
So, I can't find what MCU I could use in the future . I'm searching for a long time but no way.
Could you tell me what I can use without any problem ?
Thks to all who could help

Sorry for the late reply!
Volume control is fine, but i use my steering wheel controls mainly anyway.
Yes, you can mix the audio from navigation and other sources.
As mentioned above, you can use malaysk custom roms on this unit.
I have had a problem with the SD/map card reader though, i think it is faulty on my unit.
And xtrons support via their forum is terrible!
But it's a nice looking unit, and as long as i can get t to run radio/mp3/navigation smoothly (still setting it all up!), then i'll be happy.
Hello Sorry for the third reply on 3 diffrent posts i have just recieced my new system its a Xtrons Model no TD702A, CPU RKPX3, 7" 800x480:
http://xtrons.co.uk/td702a-android-4...tion-obd2.html
My first job is to try and root it and delete some of the crap thats comes pre installed like the weather app if i want to no its raining il just look out of the friggin car window im not going to update the MCU just the rom.
Thats were help is needed is the CPU RKPX3 same as the RK3188?. And i read that you have had problems with your SD card if i install malaysk would that give me the same problem? can anyone let me know this before i install it thanks.

Best phone app for android headunit

Hi all , just git my self and installed an android head unit , it is a Pumpkin with PX5 for VW Golf MK5.
I really enjoy the change and most of the things are working properly.....
The biggest problem I have is the stock bluetooth/phone app which is ancient.
Looking to get another app for this function and not sure what will work. Must have the ability to show the favourites , contacts with pictures and if it can to sync the contacts with Google. Also if I have multiple numbers on the same contact to show only the default number and not a list with all numbers.
On the actual app if I have 4 numbers on the same contact it will show 4 lines so if I need to scroll down to , let's say V , it's gone take me long time because of all numbers been displayed on separate line.
Right now I am playing with Carwebguru( think that's the name) and working quiet well but still there are a lot of customisation which can't be done.

The bluetooth/phone app is mostly deeply integrated with the rest of the system.
First try to find out what kind of unit you have. If it is an MTCD/E model, you should take a look at the Malaysk and/or HAL9k custom roms for PX5 mtcd/mtce models.
If you have a FYT based unit, there is actually nothing for you (I have a FYT and can't help you further on MTCD/E). All those apps are outdated and "simple".
But your entire list of wishes is most probably not possible.
How can I find if my unit is MTCD/E or FYT. All I know about my unit is that is the lastest model from Pumpkin coming with Android 8 and has PX5 on the name. From what I found I have MCU on the menu qnd that means I have MTCD unit? Sorry but I am very new on this units

Share the exact type of your unit based on its SKU number (like for example SKU: VA0202B)
And share what your settings screen mentions "about this unit"
If that's not enough we have to look at your /system/build.prop
Look like I am lucky........and I have a MTCD/E unit.
When I check on the <About> I get this
Model px5(1024x600)
Android Version 8.0.0

Yes, you can.
You need a firmware from your (re)seller.

XTRONS PSF70MTVL - Is it possible to change Radio / Phone stock apps?

Hi there,
I bought a XTRONS PSF70MTVL and I've been trying to change the phone and radio apps to something better since the stock apps are really awfull and limited.

Any thoughts/ideas would be really appreciated!
Thankx!

So sorry, didn't realize I was posting on the wrong place
Its an MTK unit. Ive had one too and suggest to you buying a PX6 for 20 bucks more. Its completely locked down, you cant even read out the serial number. Which is a travesty security wise.

Upgrading my car headunit

Hey,
I have a headunit, which I think is an Alps k62v1, running on mt6762.
But honestly, I'm not sure.
Trying to find an alternative rom or anything which might improve performance.
Would appreciate help with a basic step -
What is actually the device?
Where can I start finding info?
Attaching screenshots.
Thanks!

K50001_NWD this kind of unit I haven't hear about yet.
Try finding solutions for it by reference model "k5001 alps" in forums here on XDA or 4PDA Russian forum (use Google translator on)
Got it, thanks!
