How to install firmware:
Extract and copy all files from the downloaded firmware zip into the root directory of a USB stick. Files must be placed in the root directory, do not put in a sub-directory/folder at all. Files for a full firmware for the Ownice C960 include the following 10 files (depending on the rom there may be less or more than 10 files):
408930e4-c1fc-11e8-8a06-2b5b8f8a7e48
4192eb4c-c1fc- 11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b

6cdfbbd8-9a00-11e7-8c64-33bdecde7c40
The Ownice C960 has several methods to install the different firmware depending on the situation and the current operating status of the head unit, for example, if the head unit is still bootable into the operating system, it is possible to use method 1 to install the firmware from the software of the head unit.
If the head suffers from being stuck at logos or other problems you need to move onto method 2 of installation using a recovery method. If both method 1 and method 2 do not work there is also a 3rd method but this is not listed here, please follow the instructions on this forum: https://xethongminh.net/threads/huong-dan-chay-firmware-cho-dau-android-ownice-c960.2940/
I. Method 1 (Rerun or upgrade the firmware of the C960 player via the installation interface)
Plug in the USB drive containing the firmware and go to Settings (Settings) - Car settings (Car Settings) - Update (Update System)
-If you need to wipe the system check the box to Clear data and format Flash, then check the box for USB
-If you want to flash without wiping check the box for USB only (if you have problems with this method try wiping first before moving onto another method)
Wait for the update process to complete the reboot is successful.
Installation Video: https://youtu.be/2JvAcrLPvRo
II. Method 2 (Rerun or upgrade the firmware for the C960 player when unit cannot boot)
This method is especially useful for those who root or unlucky and have system issues causing the head unit to be unable to boot into the system. There are 2 ways to do this method:
Option 1 (I have not been able to get this method to work, this is written exactly as translated from Vietnamese):
Trapping system errors, pressing into mode Update the firmware
Error traps are a simpler way to do the first way because you don't have to remove the head from the car to short the KEY-2 cable like the first way. How to do the following:
Proceed to plug the USB containing the firmware prepared in step 2 to the beginning.
Turn on the electric car to start the car, when the head has booted on the screen (including in the state of logo hanging), proceed to use the RST hole stick on the screen to restart the head, right when the head of the Ownice logo appears then immediately turn off the car keys to turn off the head. Wait for 5 to 10 seconds, then turn the car lock on again, this time, it will jump into the firmware update mode if it detects that the USB containing the firmware is plugged in.
Option 2: Short KEY2 cable to ground (the head unit cover or car chassis)
Connect a USB stick containing the firmware
Short/connect and hold the KEY2 wire to a suitable grounding point (holding to the metal chassis part of the head unit works fine)
Stick a pin or toothpick into the RST hole (RST stands for RESET) on the front of the monitor to reboot (while keeping the KEY2 wire grounded)
Wait until the screen turns on with text showing the firmware update process is in progress, at this point disconnect KEY2 from ground
Wait until the update process is completed, it will automatically restart and operate normally.
Decompiling Firmware:
Firmware files can be decompiled and edited however I'm not going to go into detail in how this is done as its very in depth and I am not 100% sure my methods work 100%, however for those that want to attempt this I do have a link for a tool that decrypt's encrypted files, you can download the tool here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261776408
Unfortunately I do not know much about the tool or who to thank only that it's called Kaier Support Tool and its by Darkleo - Thank you dev's whoever you are!
Custom Firmware:
There is now a custom firmware available for our units. This firmware is called RedMOD
Website for RedMOD is here: https://firmware-an21.wixsite.com/redmod
RedMOD is an all in one replacement firmware for our units. It replaces the stock firmware to give us more options, features and settings. To know more please look at the website link above but note that everything is in Russian. I have been able to download and use this firmware using just Google Translate.
This firmware is not free! You must pay the developer for access to the download and you must not share this firmware! If you share this firmware your post will be reported!
Some of the features I have found useful so far in this new firmware:
Remapping Canbus Keys (Most keys can be remapped)
Better display dimming options (Auto Dimming)
More reverse camera settings (custom reverse lines etc)
Better automation settings for when the unit wakes up (choose apps to run at startup etc)
Customisation of status bar (Add or remove items like menu button, time, temperature etc)
Much much more
To get this firmware you must register on RedMod forum and then follow the instructions to download:
http://red-mod.ru/forum/viewforum.php?f=13&sid=e1d8a806c50a172dd889ccff62506225
The cost is 2000 Russian Rubles or 38 US Dollars. For me in the UK the exchange worked better to send Rubles and the cost was approximately £26. Once you send payment the admin will change your forum access so that you can access the download area. Make sure you register with the correct information and only get access to and download the firmware for "ANDROID 8.1 - Intel TS9" as this is our device.
I am not affiliated with RedMOD and cannot be held responsible for anything that may happen to your unit as a result of using this firmware.
Root:
All root files up to 15th January 2020 firmware come from the Icar Vietnam forum found here: https://xethongminh.net/threads/huong-dan-root-dau-android-ownice-c960.3115/
Root files after this date have been created by me
- August 28th 2019
- December 23rd 2019
- January 15th 2020
- March 2nd 2020
- March 13th 2020
- April 21st 2020 and July 21st 2020 (same file can be used, exactly the same for both firmwares)
How to Root:
First you must download firmware and root files that match.
Install firmware as described in the firmware section.
Extract and copy the files from the root zip file found above into the root directory of a USB stick and plug the USB into the head unit
Install MagiskManager.apk (the downloaded zip file includes this file) found on the USB stick using a file manager on the head unit
Go to Settings (Settings) - Car settings (Car Settings) - Update (Update System) (Do the same procedure as updating the firmware) and check the box for USB only
Wait for the update process to complete and the reboot is successful.
Open MagiskManager and check you are now rooted! (if you are not please rerun this procedure)
How to make your own Root file:
The root file is simply a boot image with Magisk. Nothing more nothing less. However the original boot image is encrypted so I will go through the steps of how to get the root file for each rom.
First download the tool here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261776408
Unfortunately I do not know much about the tool or who to thank only that it's called Kaier Support Tool and its by Darkleo - Thank you dev's whoever you are!
Download the firmware you want to root
Extract "4192eb4c-c1fc-11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b"
Open Kaier Support Tool
Select the "4192eb4c-c1fc-11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b" file and click decrypt
The tool will ask you to save the file, save the file as "boot.img" and transfer it to a USB stick
Put the USB stick into your head unit and open up magisk (you must have magisk installed)
Click install on Magisk (not Magisk Manager) and when it asks click to "Select and Patch a file"
Patch the "boot.img" we put onto the USB stick
When done Magisk will save the patched file into the downloads folder
Move that patched file onto your USB stick and head back to the computer
Open up Kaier support tool, select the magisk patched file and click encrypt
When it asks to save call the file "4192eb4c-c1fc-11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b"
"4192eb4c-c1fc-11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b" is now your root file!
Follow the other instructions to flash firmware and flash root but just place this new "4192eb4c-c1fc-11e8-8f83-a7a51df1443b" on your USB stick instead
Change Startup Logo:
For instructions on how to change the startup logo please follow the video here: https://youtu.be/V9xC6A41q7Q
Important things to note:
You must place the image on the root of a USB stick, it will not work if it's in a directory, you may even have to reboot with the USB plugged in before the unit will find the file
The image MUST BE an 8bit BMP file with a size of 1024x600

Thank you, I was thinking of doing the same as you. Because I believe that the C960/K6 is one of the best android head units available today. As one C960 user, I will cooperate with this thread as much as possible.

Currently, I have two C960s with different resolutions, S1008W and S1010V, and they also have different firmware.
The resolution of S1008W is 1280x720, but if you update the firmware distributed by Ownice Vietnam here, the screen resolution will be broken like the attached image.
I can't speak Vietnamese, so when I contacted Ownice official support, they sent me a small file to fix the resolution issue.
This update file actually recovered my S1008W so please add it to the op, thanks.
Hello . Just installed the C960 on a Nissan Serena 2019 . For the moment i have 3 problems :
1 . I want the AV out to keep the movie running on the roof monitor when I switch the HU on navi.
2. Steering wheel controls not working ( i have canbus, i try to reprogram the buttons from settings) .
3. The original back camera is not working ( i have canbus)

Thanks for this, I wasn't aware of the screen resolution differences but will update the op accrodingly
Before I do though can you clarify a couple of things
You say firmware is different on the 2 units? Completely different or same firmware just different file for resolution?
The attached zip, just place the "408930e4-c1fc-11e8-8a06-2b5b8f8a7e48" file on a root of a USB and update using system update option?
Can the "408930e4-c1fc-11e8-8a06-2b5b8f8a7e48" file be added to the USB stick containing a full rom to flash the whole system?
Thanks in advance

Welcome to the thread
I will try to help but information on this unit is limited and I don't have all the answers
1. Do you currently have AV out working and paid for the AV out upgrade? I don't personally use the AV out option so cannot really comment on how exactly this should work but in theory I would have thought what you are trying to do should work
2. No issues with steering wheel controls here, being canbus they are not programmable as far as I am aware at the moment, do you have the correct canbus adapter box plugged in and the correct settings set for your vehicle in car settings?
3. If the original camera works through canbus I can only assume it will not work at all. Backup/reverse camera has to plug into the RCA input on the back of the head unit
I hope this is helpful

Just unzip it to a USB memory and run the system update. The update time is a few seconds.
In addition to the resolution, the S1008W has another difference: it has a built-in 3-axis sensor and has a vertical screen UI.
However, updating the firmware for 1024x600 systems also loses this functionality, thanks.

1. Yes I paid for AV out and is working, but is mirroring everything from HU , maybe is something in settings. When I will find out I will tell you.
2. The steering button are not a big deal , but I wished the volume button to work . Can you tell me if you make the connection to steering buttons with wires or you have the connection in the harness of the HU ?
3. I think the problem is the original camera of the car . I read on some forum that I need to take the signal from another place because the car have aroundviewmonitor ( 4 camera) , parking assistance and propilot ( self driving option) . I will update the results when i have time to teardown the car again .
V11.1.1_20200421 has been released in i-car Vietnam.
And I installed magisk by the procedure introduced in this thread, but I can't install youtube vanced.
The installation completes successfully and the folder is created, but the contents are empty.
Please let me know if I'm missing something.

1. I have spoken to Ownice and AV out can only mirror I'm afraid
2. I have a canbus decoder for my unit, it works well
3. Yes if you have that sort of system it needs rewiring, I cannot help with that I'm afraid

Haven't tried youtube vanced myself yet on this unit but I can see you are trying to install it as a system app, have you tried just to install as a normal app and not a system app?

Nissan Serena S-Hybrid 2019 Japanese edition
I hope you guys can help me
In my car my aircon shows "HI" and "LO" temperature settings, when changing temperature it goes up and down in 0.5C steps showing "LO" instead of 15.5C and "HI" instead of 28.5C
However the headunit doesn't show HI or LO and just shows the temperature
I am trying to modify the APK to fix this but need your help, what I need to know is:
Does your unit show HI and LO values? If it does what temperature does it set them to HI and LO respectively? What increments does your heating change, is it 0.5C like mine? Do you have 2 separate temperatures for left and right side of vehicle or just 1 temperature settings for whole vehicle?
Sorry to move through your question, but when you linked to your own thread also mentioning the k_support tool, I realised I had seen it "somewhere" before. It was of course on 4pda.
that was some years ago when I wanted to discover everything related to Joying and other helpful stuff.
hi all, my unit is a TS9 unit and I'm looking for root... can we cooperate?
huh, anyone?
Glad to see this thread, I have the same unit on my Kuga 2015.
Anyone know what is the difference between BC6 and BC8 ? And what type of DVD I need to attach to the HU ? I have right now a Lite-on DvD .
What's the difference between the c960 k6 and the s9285 k6 if any, I'm looking to fit one of these in a 2009 ford fiesta

Hi, with this kind of radio you will never have zero issue. On the other side it can give flexibilty and a lot of things you cannot have on other autoradio.
- To set sometihing you can access the Factory menu (password 126). There you can set logo and others aspets. But please act carefully, and on your own risk. First of all do a config back-up: in Factory menu click the "Export" button; that will create a dmcu.cfg file; save it on an external drive.
-Moreover, you should learn the way you can enter the recovery on your own radio.
- Here you can find about a ROM mod:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...t/rom-hal9k-mod-v4-mtcd-e-head-units-t4046361
Anyway if your are not sitisfied, the issue you reported are enough to send back via paypal. I suggest to avoid mods, if you want follow that way.
Usually, the firmware updates that the sellers provide are MCU file (dmcu.img) - if you get, the seller will tell you also the way to install; it's different from ROM.

Interesting and thanks again.
It doesnt look difficult from what I have read. The only question I would have, Is it worth doing? Can I revert to OEM if it isnt what I want? Further Given the type of HU i have is this possible with the Dowload available or is it for a particular type? Mine is PX6 Android 9.0 from the factory. DOes it make any difference if its 13.6" screen?
But First and foremost I will work out how to get to recovery as you say.
Cheers again, your a good man.

Hi,
It depends on your interest and your intention to dedicate time . In my opinion the @Hal9k_ ROM is a very intersting one.
Yes, you can go back to the original ROM, but you must have the file to do that. May be if you ask to @Hal9k_ , he could tell you more details about the possibility to go back to the OEM.
What makes differece among Head Units is:
- the Hardware model: you have a PX6, a good one
- the Brand, as it tells you the MCU (the low level firmware) you can use when updating it
- the screen size is not so important, but it must be a supported one
About entering recovery have a look https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPQgV_55Rkk&feature=youtu.be
It may depend on your specific Unit.
Cheers

Help with Alps FF-5000 Android 10
I am also interested in this topic, I have the same unit and I would like to get the original Android 10 Firmware, since I changed it for a lower one, if someone knows how to Root this model, it could help us both.
I have a full backup of boot_1 boot_2 and emmc_user partitions. It’s for 2g-32g model 8227l
It’s fake android 10 with api27 which is 8.1 Oreo if that helps
Includes SU binary that’s not hampered from factory. Eonon had SU binary but was not functional per se.

I SOLVED MY PROBLEM WITH THIS DEVICE
It was GPS antenna. Its interference or faulty receiver loses MCU settings in memory. Once disconnected all turns normal.
Do the following :
- diconnect gps antenna
- disconnect radio antenna and then reconnect while ignition is on (gps antenna disconnected)
- turn ignition off, press button reset while turning ignition key, release reset and wait for device reseting
- adjust device settings again and enjoy the music !
+ get a new gps antenna !
:good:
FOR SOFTWARE UPDATES PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SELLER OR download from :
(I assume that yours is android 8.1 - upgraded to android 10)

!!! PLEASE TAKE NOTE THAT YOU MUST CHOOSE THE RIGHT MCU AND SOFTWARE !!!

Reboot problem
I have installed the one sent to me by @antonTNTand it works, but every time I turn on the unit, after 10 seconds a window appears with a countdown and two options, "cancel" or "update" and the system restarts automatically, and it starts in "usb detected" mode while the pen drive is unplugged, it is quite annoying since it delays the start of the unit every time I get in the car.

Turn your usb stick or SD card with software back in port... Then when boots up just click on update. If window not removed after update, go to main menu with password 8888 and find others menu or the one in which to set all settings for device and declick one for updates/software/firmware.
Or maybe usb or SD card with software in it is just stuck in memory and android detects update and wishes to install. If this is the case, unplug usb /SD card clicking on usb icon on lcd and then press eject and then safely remove stick.
Keep me updated will help you out.

I already found the problem, it had the .BIN files copied to the root of the internal memory of the radio, and every time it is turned on it detects them and restarts in USB reading mode. I deleted them and the problem is over
Would someone please send license.dat file, my headunit saya it's not activated after I upgraded firmware?

Well I did code 9191 which clears license code afaik. I installed fw that you uploaded, it went well but still my headunit says activation file not found. But atleast my volume button.(knob) is working now with that fw. Fm freq is restricted to under.90 mhz, but if you are quick enough, you can save bigger frequencies aswell.
My hu is alps 8227l ff-5000, bought from aliexpress, seller claimed it to be hizpo branded but there is no hizpo logo anywhere in frame.

Hello,
It happened to me when I updated my system, after system updating my air conditioner app stop working my head unit system is Quad core T3 p1 android 9, I solved the problem, and I would like to share the solution if someone facing same problem.
The solution is to go to settings, car settings, extra settings ( password 123456 ) then select car model or something related to model, then you will be getting into car selecting menu ( pic is attached for reference ).
Please be careful when choosing the car model, it should be exactly the same as yours.after that you will get an APK downloading, also MCU update, system will be restarted automatically after the update is complete, done
notice: your head unit should be connected to WiFi for the MCU updating process.
Regards,,
Hi guys
I recently replaced the head unit with a TS7 platform Android device (10.1") running Android 11 & system version V12.1.1 in my KIA Sorento 2016. I managed to setup few things like disabling the door information, however have no clue how to disable the air conditioner information that pops up whenever there is a minor change in the temperature inside the car. I have scavenged through the menus and yet to find an option disables this popup.
Further, I am trying to upload KIA log for the boot & failing to find out the path where the boot is looking for images. Currently I have only "Android" logo available for Boot logo menu option.
Please help.
