Hi Experts,
In possession of a Pioneer Headnit which consists of a amplifier and seperate tablet SDA-8TAB.
Seems to run on a Allwinner A50 Soc and on Android 9. Would like to get root access but well known Rooting Apps do not work. Somebody can help? I captured some info from the tablet and by looking in the logs which were created when you re-install the tablet:

It would be very helpful if you mentioned wich rooting apps you already tried. How would you otherwise get advice about other apps/options.

Sure, thanks for the question, apps I tried:
Kingroot
Kingoroot
dr. Foneroot
RootGenius
P.S I don't want to install custom rom, only would like root access

Try Magisk. It is the universal rooting method.
You do need to know though how to flash a boot image, or how to dd write a boot image.

Goedemiddag,
Yes I have read tutorials and I need TWRP with a custom file designed for my device, which I cannot find.
So Magisk is one step too far for the moment.
Any suggestion? Dank, HJ

Depending on the head unit you do not need TWRP, but I have no idea how your boot/recovery works.
Other tools are Superuser and SuperSU.

What I did just now:
1. In developer settings Android allow to boot custom image
2. Downloaded MagiskManagere to tablet and chose the option to install ZIP automatically
3. Booted in Android recovery mode by holding down the power button and volume up button
4. I expected to get booted in a different screen than the stock Android one, see attachment.
Bootloader option just shows the Android puppet....with belly open
Am I doing something wrong?
I also surfed the web and found out that it's helpfull to have the stock factory rom from the device so that later on it can be flashed with root access.
But to get the stock rom you need root, which I am actually after. Or use TWRP but hey, they don't have rom for my device.
So basically stuck. Should I give up or is there a way, or perhaps I am doing something wrong?

Most units here are Chinese units. Actually there are only 4~5 Android/MCU manufaturers. All the brands you see are resellers of the hardware of these 4~5 resellers. You have a Pioneer. It might be identical to one of those manufacturers, but maybe also a pure Pioneer in-house development. That makes that it difficult for those Chinese head unut owners to help you.
But did you try this link? : http://howtoandroitroot.com/download/pioneer-sda-8tab
(I didn't follow it through)

Note to self for good tutorial, method 2. https://www.the***********.com/install-magisk-root-android-devices/
Need Stock root image.
The website you gave doesn't asllow me anything, however it shows options for all ANdroid which is strange, This tablet just came out.
Do you have somebody in your network who could help find that stock boot image looking at my first post with ingo, or contact me how to get it myself from the device perhaps?
Willing to donate of course.
I think I have almost the same unit as you .. I've been looking everywhere for the info about rooting and any available alternative roms ... Mine is a Xomax XM 2VA 757 ... pure allwinner but now you've answered a lot of my puzzles. Thanks
We have almost identical architectures .... and I have asked my vendor if they can find me an OTA type upgrade ROM for it .. I don't hold out much hope but I am trying.

And we both live in the Netherlands !! I'm in Den Haag .. where are you ?
I just found anA50 firmware .. don't recognise the device though ...
Here ...
Heya. I have the same device. After a few weeks of research I managed to boot it into a firmware from another device (MultiLaser M7S Lite Oreo) using PhoenixCard. This means that I should be able to use IMGRePacker to extract it, then patch boot.fex with Magisk, flash that back onto the SD Card and from there on out, I should be able to backup the stock img from the internal nand, patch that and then flash it to the nand. I will keep y'all up to date with success/failures.
UPDATE 1: Boot.fex from MultiLaser Stock Firmware is patched and repacked into Firmware IMG. Flashing to SD Card right now.
UPDATE 2: Flashed SD Card with new boot.fex. Wouldn't boot. Will try flashing it with the option "Preserve force encryption" checked.
UPDATE 3: Just found out there are two bootloaders. One on the nand, and one on the SD. Obviously to boot the sd card with a patched img, I will need to unlock the bootloader. Edit: It won't boot to bl with button combo, I am assuming I will need to execute "adb reboot bootloader", so will be trying that.
UPDATE 4: The M7S ROM is booted and rooted baby!

Unfortunately I messed it up and accidentally flashed the internal boot partition with a magisk patched boot from the multilaser and now I have no way to obtain the original boot image. Though you can always check if the multilaser firmware is anywhere near stable on your device using phoenixcard. I'll see if I can find back where I got the flashfile in a bit and post here. Just make sure to use phoenixcard before actually flashing the tablet. This way you can know if it even boots and works in the first place, without risking a brick.
The download quota is exceeded. Imma find a way to download it and reupload it to Mega
i can read system if i take of emmc using ufi box but i dont want to lose guarentee,i also tried to find a boot to patch it with magisk but i didnt,i only want to root this pioneer

Hi,
I am the 'proud' owner of an SM-T533 Value Edition WiFi, specs: http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=7941&c=samsung_sm-t533_galaxy_tab4_ve_10.1_lte-a
What I am looking for is a custom recovery for this thing. It has an Snapdragon 410 processor and is an update of the older Tab 4 10.1
Currently the latest official KitKat 4.4.4 is installed, rooted with Kingo Root.
Questions:
- is there a Cyanogen or Blisspop ROM available for this model? (preferably Bliss, because I have this on my Moto G and like it very much)
- if yes, can I flash it with Flashify if there is no TWRP/CWM available?
thanks
Hans
h,
it's a qcom/msm8916 device with a snapdragon 410,
it's likely you can use another sm-t53xx 's [lte] custom recovery without issue, twrp or philz/cwm.
keep hold of your firmware, and since you are rooted, dump a copy of stock recovery from your device to your pc
and package it for odin flashing jic.
your recovery partition would likely be mmcblk0p15, so in terminal run,
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p15 of=/sdcard/stock-recovery.img
then pull it to your pc and package it for flashing through odin, [lookup instuctions].
then get a copy of twrp or philz for sm-t53x lte model and flash it through odin and see if it works out.
if good. then make a full backup of your rom via recovery and then give one of the lte rom releases a try.

You called? I pulled this from the SM-T533 5.1.1 build, XEO Region (Poland). Hope it suits your fancy (the tar is obviously in the zip)

- flashed "T533XXU1BOI3_T533OXA1BOI3" to get latest bootloader -> OK
- flashed "TWRP-2.8.7.0-SM-T5XX-150901_matisse_wifi_3g_lte" -> RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
- flashed "cwm-recovery" -> RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING
so I'm back to square one (KitKat)
n.B. flashing the provided stock recovery results in a black screen :crying:

Sorry to hear about the stock recovery, I did what I always do. You can still fix it by flashing an Odin firmware
N.B. it says "recovery is not seandroid enforcing" even when the custom recovery is working properly, so that doesn't tell us anything. I assume you were trying to say TWRP didn't work

okay, that's what i wanted to know, display drivers in kernel, quit your whining by the way.
so i'll need to get hold of kernel source, oh joy.
i'll get back to this thread when i have a kernel compiled and tinker with the recovery image.
re-flash your stock recovery.

M,
Idk if this will help but I'm giving you the stock 5.1.1 boot.img (zipped and attached), I'm still working on getting the /system/lib/modules/ listing. Also, and idk if this is significant, but unlike all other Tab 4 models, the SM-T533 is 64 bit, google it if you don't believe me but I'm 95% confident on the veracity of that statement.
okay guys,
i am NOT finding a source for t533 ,
this model is sm-t533 ?
for now i'll take a spin with sm-t535 LL source release, the 64 bit thing is iffy though.

I know right? I can't even get the system.img.ext4 to play nicely, otherwise I'd have the /system/lib/modules/ listing for you. But this SM-T533 seems to be a real challenge. But if it's any help, yes, it's definitely 64 bit (DogBlamn, right??!)

M,
Sorry , I'm always running (at least) one step behind you. I got the listing of the /system/lib/modules folder, also zipped and attached below. I'm going to go through the system folder (and then take a look at the other images in the tar if that doesn't work) to see if I can find anything about the display.
/system/lib/modules/ listing:
A folder named pronto (so /system/lib/pronto/) with a single file, pronto_wlan.ko
ansi_cprng.ko
core_ctl.ko
dma_test.ko
evbug.ko
gator.ko
mmc_block_test.ko
mmc_test.ko
msm-buspm-dev.ko
oprofile.ko
radio-iris-transport.ko
spidev.ko
tcp-htcp.ko
tcp_westwood.ko
test-iosched.ko
UPDATE: I know this isn't what you're asking for but these lines in the build.prop seemed interesting enough to mention:
Code:
ro.product.device=matissevewifi
ro.product.board=MSM8916
ro.chipname=APQ8016
ANOTHER UPDATE @moonbutt74, am I annoying you yet? :silly: I opened a couple files (/system/usr/idc/Synaptics_RMI4_TouchPad_Sensor.idc and /system/usr/idc/Synaptics_RMI4_TouchPad.idc) and they both talk about "Atmel Maxtouch touch screen", is this what you were looking for? I'm going to keep combing the system folder to be thorough. And screw it, I'm going to zip and attach those two files, since why the hell not?

H,
can you run uname -a in terminal or give me a screenshot of the tab in your settings that shows kernel version information?
also can you run the following command,
ls -al /proc/config.gz
if it comes back with an actual listing of that file, i need it, if so then run
cp /proc/config.gz /sdcard/config.gz and attach that to your post.
@sub77 has resources for a twrp build for matissevewifi using prebuilt kernel,
https://github.com/GalaxyTab4/twrp_device_samsung_matisseve/blob/twrp-cm12/BoardConfig.mk
if he has a build of twrp available for your tab then
that would be the way to go.
i did stumble onto this source for a kernel https://github.com/MSM8916-Samsung/android_kernel_samsung_e53g
it has dts's for your device,
Code:
/dts-v1/;
#include "msm8916-sec-matissevewifi-eur-r00.dtsi"
#include "msm8916-memory.dtsi"
so once my internet gets fixed maybe i'll be able to clone that and get something working.
from uname -a:
Linux localhost 3.10.28-4271302 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jul 8 14:21:44 KST 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux
there is no config.gz in the kernel
btw I tried the twrps from sub77, but none would install/display

Please note that I gave up on this unit (MTCD PX5 units are so much nicer...). I will try to update this post (however infrequently) with information that may appear in this thread or come my way by other means, but I will not seek information actively and updates will no longer be from my own experience or experiments.
At the time of writing this head unit is available here and (probably) here. These are both custom fit for Kia Sorento, but other versions do exist; in particular several EONON units feature the same hardware configuration (model numbers GA2160, GA7153 GA7163, and I am sure others).
Hardware-wise this seems to be the same unit as described in this thread so many tricks therein will work for this unit. In particular the USB debugging password continues to be "[email protected]" (without quotes); the extra settings password is most likely either 123456 or 668811; the factory reset and developer options passwords appear to be both 7890.
In all the unit is an Allwinner quad core R16, with the MCU version 5.3.19-16-10-650101-161115 and System version V7.3.1-2016-11-12.100233_TW2. Here is the Droid Info report:

Software-wise the unit comes with a fairly stock version of Marshmallow, though as usual the operating system is a bit locked down (but to my surprise not too locked down) compared to stock.
The purpose of this thread is to gather information about the software and possible customization for these units. I have added the information I gathered from my experience and I will update this post with any new information I manage to obtain.
1. Partition dump
For reference I dumped all the partitions of my device. The dump is available here. The dump was done by name (for those partitions that have a name) and symlinks point to the device name from /dev/block. Feel free to share (credit appreciated but not necessary) and please share any information that you gather from it (which will be included in this section as it becomes available).
2. Flashing firmware
There are multiple ways of flashing new firmware, depending on the actual unit and also its state (working, bootloop, etc.). All methods require that the all the files (three to six) that contain said firmware (see next section) be placed in the root of a SD card formatted FAT32 and inserted in the GPS slot of the unit. Some reports of the firmware being flashed from a USB stick rather than the SD card also exist; they also mention that choosing one USB port over another might make the difference between success and failure.
On a working system inserting the card and/or USB stick and choosing "update system" from preferences will likely do the trick.
On a system that is not working the following methods have been reported:
Hold Home, press Reset, and keep holding Home until the update starts (thanks).
A hardware solution is to short Key 1 (steering wheel controls) to ground, then press and hold Reset for 10 seconds; release Reset and disconnect Key 1 when "update" is displayed (thanks).
Yet another procedure might be needed for some units (thanks): Using a USB stick prepared as above and inserted in the unit, turn ignition to ACC, press Reset, turn ignition off, then after 5 seconds turn it again to ACC. A video is also available.
3. Flashable firmware
All the reports I have seen indicate that all the firmware versions are interchangeable. However, a factory reset will be needed most of the time for full functionality, especially so when installing firmware from a different vendor. It is VERY important however to note that the file bd07a5ee-fbb0-11e4-ae78-000c29ba27c0 contains the MCU firmware and so SHOULD NOT be flashed on incompatible devices as doing so will brick the unit (thanks).
Partition 11 of the above dump in particular stores a flashable image. It contains the following files:
81cb828c-9b57-11e6-ad2a-df6786178d62
827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.0
827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.1
bd07a5ee-fbb0-11e4-ae78-000c29ba27c0
The files 827ba428-9b57-11e6-8dfb-37398ea70e52.* in particular when cat-ed together form an ext4 file system that appear to be a copy of the system partition. This 4pda forum thread contain more information (thanks @Ahfish22); I do not speak Russian at all but Google Translate does a good job most of the time.
Since I started this thread many people have posted many firmware versions. Here is a hopefully complete list. There might be duplicates and misses and I apologize for both in advance.
The following set of firmware (in particular V7.3.1_20170610.110122_KED1 therein) come recommended by several users (thanks).

Kaier firmware (thanks)
Rooted KLD (Klyde) firmware (thanks):V7.3.1_20170512.203736_KLD1-0-1-mod
4. Recovery
Mot units do have a working recovery partition, though some are reported not to have such. The command "reboot recovery" at a root prompt (terminal emulator or ADB) will enter recovery (if available).
Alternatively recovery can be reached with an external USB keyboard as follows: While holding Alt and Print Screen keep tapping i; the system will eventually restart in recovery (thanks pir8man) .
It should be noted that despite the on-screen instructions the stock recovery does not react to any buttons on the head unit, but works well with an external USB keyboard.
5. Customization
There are useful tweaks that come with the stock operating system including speed-dependent volume and (apparently, I have not tested exhaustively) the elimination of the full-screen keyboard.
I found this alternative to the stock radio app (context, source code) which is pretty nice except that the app force closes upon attempting to enter settings. If you speak Russian it may be worth discussing this with the developer.
Root: Kingoroot works, though several attempts (reboot and try again) may be needed. Note that a reliable Internet connection is needed during the whole process. I do not like the extra apps and intrusive ads that come with Kingoroot. I therefore recommend once rooted to install Chainfire's SUperSU, let it update the su binary, and then uninstall Kingoroot. Note however that the current Play Store SuperSU (namely, version 2.82) may not be able to overwrite Kingoroot's su (saying instead that "the su binary is occupied"). If this is the case you may want to try version 2.79 (downloadable from here) which is known to work. Once the Kingoroot's su binary is overwritten you can upgrade to the latest (Play Store) SuperSU.
Busybox: Installed without incidents using the usual installer from the Play Store.
Xposed: Installed using the Xposed installer v. 3.1.1 and works well. I tried Gravity Box and Xprivacy.
6. Outstanding issues
It should be possible to redefine the default apps for music, video, and radio but I did not find any way to do it.
Mapping SWC and front button panel events works to some degree (for testing purposes I mapped the "Band" button to the app drawer), but this seems to be exclusively at the mercy of the MCU, which only allows mapping to predefined actions. I could find no way to map these events to custom actions on the OS side. It was reported that button events are communicated to the OS as long as no MCU app is running. However, I was unable to reproduce this; for me no event is ever seen by the OS no matter how many (or how few) apps are running. I stopped all the MCU apps but even so KeyTest does not register any event.
Needless to say, no custom recovery (such as TWRP) exist for these units.
So if the hardware is the same as the other 4.4.2 units then can we update our old units to 6.0?
Can you share me the content of /sbin directory?

If the hardware matches then I do not see why not. In addition to dd-ing the system and boot partitions of my dump (which you are welcome to try) please see my last edits of the first post for possible flashable firmware being available.
Just make sure that you have a (tested) way to get back if things do not work...

See attached.
Found a thread in the russian site about updating the older units that came with 4.4.2 to 6.0. I will give that a try later today and report back. I'm mostly concerned about it's native support to USB DAC's so I can finally stop change audio sources in my DSP every time I want to use any app other than UAPP.
EDIT: spoke too soon before reading the updates to the original post!
Alternative to the stock radio -- help needed
I found this alternative radio app (reference, source code). It works well but I am unable to set preferences as the app force closes on selecting the setting menu item.
I would ask the developer, except that I do not speak Russian. I was wondering if any Russian speaker around here could inquire about the issue. I have also downloaded the sources and I am poking around but I am not holding my breath until I find a solution (I am a coder but not an Android developer). Many thanks in advance!

Hi, I recently bought one of these for a Ford Mondeo and I somehow have figured about using keypress events.
The problem doesn't lie in the unit itself, but the damn apps it has.
I have been two entire days staring at Extreme Logcat screen and button event but no go, but, suddently, key event started registering next, prev and play/pause.
GREAT, I thought, and I started configuring Xposed Additions to start some audio visualizers in some buttons but when I started the music app, it stopped registering the events. It closed that app and those events where working again. Tried powerAmp and everything works like a charm. Menu and back keystrokes can also be mapped while the on-screen button still do the default action, so:
- It seems like the built-in apps capture those events and prevent anyone (tasker, Xposed Additions) to use them.
- MP3 and video player can be replaced pretty easyly but radio and specially bluetooth manager (Which has a whooping 12 keys that can be customized (0-9, # and *)) cannot be replaced.
- Decompiling the app, and disabling those captures could be the solution to use all those keystrokes OR finding some way to block those apps from capturing those events.
If I get something new I'll post asap.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
(my first post):laugh:
I would also like to have a copy of this ROM.
I have the same Droid report.
Being someone that cant leave things alone i have somehow corrupted my unit.
I rooted with Kingoroot and all worked well. Uploaded a recovery to the cloud, all good.
Decided to down load back to the unit. Wife moves car and interrupts download.
Now when i boot up all i get is the car logo and the android screen, this is where it stops.
Tried installing various updates, They seem to install. Progress bar for abut 5 min shows update end
then boots to the car logo Android screen and stops.
Cheers

Thank you for the report. I tried the same (stop all system apps) but even so KeyTest does not register any event. This was done for the panel buttons since I do not have yet any SWC (the unit is on the bench), which may or may not be the cause of my failure.

Have you found any way to replace the default association for these apps? By default the "Mode" action cycles through the default apps, did you find any way to convince this action to cycle through some other (custom) rotation?

would one of my units be similar to yours?
i received a newer firmware from the chinese (build 29.12) as a ZIP which contains the 4 files as above, but i can't update it since i get a signature error (seen below). In the meantime i managed to **** up the screen by accidentally switching to 800x480 and now i can't see anything useful on the display...

Most (all?) Chinese vendors know absolutely nothing about the units they sell so it is quite possible to have the wrong firmware. This, or the file got corrupted during transfer somehow. Have you tried my firmware blob or the others that float around? The probability that it will work look decent and what have you gotta loose?
You can also try to restore the resolution by trial and error (touching the screen where things should be). A couple of success stories have been posted in this thread though the process looks painful...
there are couple of FWs around, i saw them on 4PDA as well. The latest is february, something. The problem is that the ZIP file has the 4 files you listed above, instead of an IMG file. Shouldn't IMG be the default ROM update? I mean even PowerSuit recognizes only IMGs, that is if i manage to connect to the damn box somehow.
I tried TV out, hoping the signal is ****ed only from the mainboard to the screen and it would manage to display it on another external screen, but....there is no TV out. Didn't work with the cables provided.
Trial & error...i would need to see another menu next to me in order to see where the hell i'm pressing on my screen
Resolution change is the first menu, but is hidden in the extra settings, behind a password which i'd also need to enter....blindly.
Did you manage to install any of the 4PDA firmwares properly on yours? Try the December 29th one, this is the one that Infidini sent me....
LE: LOL, i just read the following passage from the thread you posted above:
"What is the Extra Settings password?
Resolved: 123456
Note: Do NOT change the resolution of the head unit. You will destroy your unit. However it is reversible."
Post 807: another quickfinger like me, changed the res. the other way around, from 800 to 1200, but he still sees something....

I believe that the four files can be used directly to upgrade, at least this is what people have reported (I have never tried to upgrade myself). This also makes sense given that a restore to factory from the (Android) menu will presumably use the partition with those files.

5-settings-pass.jpg - the password entry box and keyboard (I would advise the use of a USB keyboard instead though)
6-extra-settings.jpg - the Extra setting screen
7-resolution.jpg - the resolution dialogue
I hope this helps. If somebody can advise on how to take screenshots I will come back with better quality photos.

How do you power on the thing when not connected in the car???
Hello everyone.
For my first post here I'd like to share and learn more about rooting the EONON GA2175. This Android HU currently operating with Oreo on a RK3326_mid chipset. So after an exhaustive search, there is not much information available in rooting this system. It seems that's this HU seems to be almost completely locked down. For starters, I wasn't able to even access developer mode through the build number as usual. I was finally able to get through by installing a developer access app called "Developer Options Shortcut & Device Info" on the app store.
Using one click apps like Kingo Root, Root Master or Towel Root are completely ineffective. As a matter of fact, Root Master says my "phone is too strong"
I tried connecting the unit to a laptop by using a male to male USB cable. But both my laptop of the HU do not recognize each other. Maybe some drivers may help but none are available.
I've watched you tube videos that demonstrating other people rooting similar units by accessing the safe boot option then loading TWRP on a SD card. I believe this is the only way to root these units. However, for this unit I am unable to access safe mode. I've discovered that holding the "Vol/PWR" knob for approximately 10 sec will cause it to start blinking but combinations with the "RST" button, home or quick pressing the "PWR" doesn't work. That's as far as I got.
I hope this helps anyone with the same unit but any help with my roadblock will be greatly appreciated.
Thanx!
UPDATE
So I finally managed to get to recovery mode on this device.
1. With a tooth pick, quick press the "RST" button.
2. Long press the "PWR/VOL" knob for approximately 10secs until the lights blink.
3. Then immediately quick press the "PWR/VOL"
You may need to do it more than once but it'll work.
Well.... now what TWRP version should I use?
I didn't see my HU listed.
Or should I use a different program?
did you end up getting something to work?

Not yet.
I did manage to find some unit specifics. I'll post them shortly. Maybe some coder can do something with that info. Where I run into a roadblock is that I cannot find a suitable ROM and MCU.
If this help to figure things out.

Get any further with this, wouldn't mind a custom ROM for mine although i'm pretty happy how it works now.
Actually yes!! Type "ADBON" in factory setting password to access developer options. It works. Thanks Ric69!
Hi,
I am looking for some help in troubleshooting my android car head unit. I’ve been using the Blaupunkt Santa Rosa 980 (9-inch variant) for over a month now. The system on its own is good – fast, responsive. But the manufacturer has limited a lot of settings and features, which makes it difficult to customize and use.
Product Link: https://blaupunkt.com/c_ind/product/santa-rosa-980-9-inch/
My issues with the system:
I use Nova launcher, as I love the interface. But every time the system reboots, the Accessibility settings for it get disabled. I have to enable them each time.
No option to enable Developer settings. Somehow, the Android settings for me like About car/Device, Build number are hidden.
I’ve tried a dozen shortcut apps available on Play Store, none work. They all ask for developer settings to be enabled first. Have also tried via the activity launcher shortcut/widget in Nova, with no luck.
The Status/Notification bar (and the overall UI) is ugly. Default one would have been nice.
While playing videos on installed apps like MX Player or VLC, the respective application simply hangs after few minutes of playback. No media works unless I reboot the system.
What I’m looking for:
A good, stable custom ROM for this system.
Alternatively, I am looking to root the system – in hopes of gaining access to hidden Android settings/developer options.
I’ve tried rooting via KingoRoot, but no luck again. Also, the system does not get detected by my laptop as USB debugging cannot be enabled (without enabling developer options I don’t know to do it).
However, I have been able to get into recovery mode via Terminal Emulator app.
Custom recovery option for this system (TWRP) - as I'm hoping it can help install root access/SU in my case.
Any leads/inputs/suggestions will be really helpful.

Though this is branded as Blaupunkt in India, I suspect its just another rebranded Chinese unit. Attaching some screenshots for reference.
Update - managed to get root with Magisk. Had to patch my stock boot.img and flash.
Hello, I have a San Pedro 900 model radio, which was working very well, but over time the applications began to stop working due to the android version and I found an update on the official page, I tried to install everything well and suddenly I returned an error and got black screen.
Do you happen to know how to reinstall the original system?

Hi.
You will need the original installation files for your system. Blaupunkt or your service center should be able to provide you with that. I had bricked my system too. Installation is easy if you have the OS/setup files, drivers and a laptop with adb and SP Flash tool.
