Autochips AC8259E (A53*8) ROM - Android Head-Units

Hi all,
I've been looking for an aftermarket headunit for my Mini Cooper S (year 2007), and found several on Ali. I'm particularly interested in the below unit:
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001184671816.html
Questions:
1. I've been checking whether custom roms are available for the AutoChips chip series, but all I could find on xda are for RockChip. Will these work on the above unit (it comes with Android 10)
2. Could somebody recommend any other unit for a Mini Cooper S R56 (year 2007) with the silver CD and separate volume control that can be modified with a custom rom?
I asked the vendor to send me the MCU version and he sent me this, if it helps identify the unit:
CHIP: AUTOCHIPS AC8259E (A53*8)
MCU: HDBEC.200423
MEDIA: HC_v2.0.0_200311_000(v1.71)
BTV: BT.20.06.23.1430
Android: 10
Many thanks for any tips!
Regards,
Chris

Did you want Android auto or Android head units? Your post suggests Android head units and not AA.

I initially posted in head units but did not get any replies. After looking at other similar posts, people were suggesting to them to post in the "Android Auto" forum, so I posted there too
Sorry for any confusion...

I'm just looking for an android headunit for my Mini Coopers S R56 (year 2007) and there are many options to choose from, but all of them have "something missing". The best I could find is this 9" unit, but it doesnt have the commonly referred to RockChip chip or the MTCx MCU for which all custom roms in XDA are available.... I want a unit that I can upgrade with custom roms, and was looking for advice.
Again thanks for replying

Xtrons TR100

Processor type- UltraOcta-T8
Android version- 7.1.2
MCU- 5.3.19-94-84-E06101-180111
System ver- v9.2.2_20180314.153952_TW2-FD
I have the Xtrons tr100 which has been a very great upgrade from the last unit I had, especially the sound quality. The only problem I'm having is an issue with the bluetooth which will not connect to my obd2. When i search for bluetooth devices the obd2 does show up, when I press and hold on obd2 3 options pop up which are ok, obd2, and cancel. I tried all options with no success. I went into the extra settings and chose bc6 and/or bc8 with no luck. Anything elee I'm missing or could try?
Hi, Your unit appears to be an allwinner unit and so posting in the android auto forums you might not get a response. Here's a starter for you:

Hi Marchnz,
you said above that "trigga_b Your unit appears to be an allwinner unit and so posting in the android auto forums you might not get a response." would be better on a different thread why is that?
I have the same head unit TR100 and after searching for Xtrons TR100 I ended up here do you not consider this an android head unit it is running Android 7.1 nougat

Custom roms for XTRONS PSD50WRJL?

Hi guys, I'm sure there's something around somewhere but my google fu is currently letting me down.
I've recently bought a PSD50WRJL from XTRONS (Android 10 head unit shaped to fit some older Jeeps) has anyone seen any custom roms for this head unit?
Is it an MTCD type? Have a read through, its unlikely anyone can answer your question as xtrons are a reseller. Model numbers are mostly meaningless. Your MCU version will either reveal or provide a hint to who manufactured you unit, the type and if a custom ROM is available.
Don't panic, nearly everyone makes the mistake of thinking that the model number identifies the unit. Take some time to read up.

How can I tell what type it is?
I've also seen it called alps FF-5000
I've read further on MTC(B/C/D/E) and I'm not sure that this head unit fits any category. My MCU is: TS907.190518(W)
Hi I have the same headunit XTRONS PSD50WRJL. I'm using Erisin ES364 USB box with DAB Z APP but I'm encountering serious problems in hearing DAB stations .... Any idea ?

Experience/Information for Witson SC9853i Head Unit for Opel Astra J ?

Hi guys,
I am currently using an S10 Head Unit but honestly I can't use any apps anymore since it is so terribly slow. Therefore I was considering a 'Tesla Style' Head Unit.
During my research I've found out that the units based on the Intel IA Chip seem to be more powerful than the PX6 based ones.
Therefore I amthinking about the following unit from Witson: Android 9.0 For OPEL ASTRA J/VAUXHALL HOLDEN 2010-2013 (TTF1974)
However I am reading a lot about Joying Head-Units but they don't seem to offer anything for my Opel/Vauxhall Astra J.
My question is, is there any SW Support for the unit from witson?
Can I even flash the SW from Joying? But Joying has only the Android 8.1 for the SC9853i but the Unit above is delivered with Android 9.
Does anyone even have some experience with the mentioned head unit or can give me any kind of input / Links?
I already saw the threads in this category but honestly I am not sure how well they apply to the Unit from Witson.

Real Android Q update

Hi team,
I have just bought a car equipped with an android car radio.
I have browsed the various topics dealing with android head unit but I need your clarification.
Can we update the mcu in the rom? or vice versa?
I understood that I had a fake version of android Q and I did not find an android head unit equivalent to mine in the posts.
I found this post where the android unit has the same specs as mine but that really needs to be verified.
I copy the characteristics of my car radio.
Thank you in advance for the help you could give me.

Not a FYT unit indeed. FYT only released Android 8.0 units on PX5.
Their sc9853i units were Android 8.1.
