I’ve just inherited a car with an Android 8.1 head unit. All I can see is it’s an 8227l unit. Can someone tell me what unit it is and if I can update it at all and get some info about it? Or is it easier to pull it out and see if there are details on the back of the unit.
Not to worry. I changed some search details and found it on eBay. Anyone know if these things are updatable?

I'm looking at upgrading my head unit and was looking on ebay and came across this https://tinyurl.com/y76zsaqs
Anybody know if they're any good or could recommend a hu, I would be grateful.
Thanks
I installed the Joying JY-BO124N3 Android head unit which works great. The problem I'm having is the car is displaying metric units on start up. To fix this, I have to go into the head unit settings and change to imperial/American units which will then display the correct units on the dash/climate control. The headunit itself always displays the correct Imperial units (mph, F, etc). I contacted the manufacturer who said it wasn't possible to permanently change through the head unit. The Eunavi Android head unit in my Toyota doesn't have this problem so I'm assuming the problem is with the BMW. Is there anyway I can permanently program/code out metric units so only Imperial information is displayed on my dash?
I did a review on the head unit and show this problem at 3:23:

Anyone?
I can’t help other than to say I had the same issue with my BMW E90 and an Eonon unit so it seems like this might be an E90 thing with these aftermarket head units?

Ah, thanks for the reply. This is super helpful. I'm just relieved to hear that someone (unfortunately) had the same issue as me. If my Joying and your Eonon are doing the same thing, then I can pretty much narrow down that it's on BMW's end.
Trying to figure out what type of head unit this is so I can get support and updates for it. Purchased it from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B081DMDRC...abc_CV2AMMYNTEY2376HY6HP?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Hi All,
I've bought a new Android Head-Unit for my car, it is an Android 12 based device but I'm not able to understand if it is an MTCD, MTCB or anything else.
Attached are two screens with the device details, any hints on what it is or what I should look for?
PS: the unit is available on Amazon, but I cannot find more details anywhere.
Thanks!!
No one can put me on the right way to properly identify this head unit?
I have android head unit in my car and it has android 12 in it sometimes its not working properly and cant update it from settings ,
Any help please..
Unfortunately the provided information is not sufficient to identify your head unit. It's like you would ask for help for your smartphone but telling us nothing about the concrete device.
Please post the about screen. Additionally manufacturer, product, device, CPU and board data you can read with app CPU-Z.
Brand of the device and model according to the sellers description may be helpful, too.
Its a head unit for cars from wowivid i bought it on ebay for carplay
