[Q] Help rooting Pumpkin Quad-core Android 4.4 Kitkat Car Stereo

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

No, all apps work for now pretty good.
I can't find a way to fix the mic of the stereo though
And change the home screen to make it more convenient.
I tried agama luncher but it get stuck almost every time it turns on

Try factory settings, Code 8888, others >>> mic sensitivity. Work ed for me. Alternativ use mtk engeneer from market

What did you change the mic sensitivity to exactly?
I have this head unit and the mic is whisper quiet on recordings or phone calls.

PEN-HUI head unit

Hi,
I bought DAFYT-8712T unit from PEN-HUI for Dodge Dart. It is intended for Fiat Viaggio and Dodge Dart. At some point Can-BUS connection between radio and TFT instrument cluster stopped working. Steering wheel buttons do work, but clock on TFT cluster is now stuck at 12:06AM and radio channel is stuck at 87.5 A1. So radio does not update these anymore. I have tried to find correct config info and car selection combo but none of those seem to work. Can anyone tell me what is wrong? Can I upgrade to a better firmware? Image for that somewhere?
System V8.3.2_20180528.16457_PH-TW2-CarPlay
MCU T5.3.19-23-844-E43101-181107

PX5 MTCE Android 10 - WiFi Connectivity / Stability Issues

Hi All,
I'm bit new to the world of Android Head Unit who recently purchased a PX5 Android 10 head unit for my Peugeot 407.
After installation everything works fine expect for one problem. WiFi doesn't work.
If I turn ON the WiFi, it finds my network, connects to it, and then immediately the WiFi turns OFF. It keeps turning ON and OFF in loop.
So reached out to my seller who provided a firmware file using which I upgraded my unit successfully. But no luck. WiFi still has the same problem. It keeps turning ON and OFF in continuous loop.
Head Unit Specifications
Car: Peugeot 407
Unit: PX5
CPU: Octa-core Cortex-A53 @1.5G
Memory: 4GB
Storage: 64GB
MCU Version: MTCE_MX2_V3.60_1
Kernel Version: 4.19.111+
Build Number: rk368-userdebug 10 [email protected] eng.hct2.20200909.085823
Bluetooth Module: WQ_RF210 (as pre-selected in the Factory settings in the head unit)
I've attached a video of my symptoms as well. Please can you have a look and advise / point me in the right direction to fix this WiFi problem.
I spent time tracking down the seller for firmware update because I'm not sure how to identify the specific model / manufacturer etc of the unit.
Any advise on how to identify the finer details associated with the Head Unit Model would also be very helpful.
Thank you.

Did you check the wifi antenna?
I have a 407 - (2007) - does your head unit allow for aircon and heating/ventilation controls and all the canbus functions?
my orange dispaly is failing so thought I'd install one of these instead
Do you have a link for the one you bought? I've been looking for octacore - most are quad
Thanks
Found some interesting info here

I can't find my exact seller listing but below link is a similar eBay listing for the same model I have got.
Peugeot 407 Android 10 PX5 4-64
Yes, it integrates seamlessly with canbus / climate control etc. It comes with a canbus connector. There's an option to connect reverse camera if you want to. But you have to buy the reverse camera separately. Other than that there's a GPS antenna, built in and extra microphones for phone calls, memory card slot, USB slots etc.
I wouldn't recommend any sellers for this kind of after market head units as they are all sold / shipped by overseas / international sellers. There's always a risk with this type purchases. So proceed with caution. If you end up getting a good unit, the risk is well rewarded. Your Pegueot gets a major upgrade.
All the best!

Thanks!
I've been looking at these ones.
Still undecided
Might just get a new mfd screen & keep using my phone!

Have you guys found any solutions to your canbus problems with Peugeot 407? I lost my automatic headlights / daylights which I'd love to have back. Have you encountered and solved other issues with Android head units?
I can't either enable some car functions from car app from head unit (automatic lights, rear wiper, parking radar etc.). Can you see the outside / inside temperatures of the car somewhere? My A/C works somehow (responses like it should to physical buttons, but I bet it has mechanical faults instead communication problems with head unit).

Hello there,
See this workaround.
Custom ROMs such as @Hal9k_ 's Mod V5 have workarounds for this under Mod settings. In that ROM, go to Mod settings, select "Hardware settings" and toggle on the "Reset USB devices when booting or waking up".
