Rooting my Pumpkin Android rckPX2 4.4.4

Hi, fellows
I have tried to root my head unit using: KingRoot, TowelRoot, Root Master etc and every single one failed. It is something that I am doing wrong? or it is not possible.
Please help!

Aparently, not possible...

What is a "Pumpkin Android rckPX2 4.4.4?" Searching for rckPX2 on the Pumpkin website turns up nothing.

My unit is this one on their website LM-C0676-US-A GeneralS: Android 4.4 Kit KatCPU: Rockchip PX2 Cortex A9 Dual Core 1.4GHzRAM: DDR3 1GBNand Memory: 8GBAudio output: 4*45W maxScreen Resolution: 800*480 Cold Boot time: about 25-30s - See more at: http://www.autopumpkin.com/car-dvd-...-control-for-toyota.html#sthash.FlVuWSf2.dpuf

Mike the Rockchip 3066 and the Rockchip PX3 seems to be the same processor just that the 3066 is used only in consumer products and the PX2 is used for consumer products and industrial applications.
I did post the link to both processors PDF to see if somebody can compare them and determine if I can use the Malaysk room with my unit.
Thanks for your help!

Sorry is PX2 not PX3.

The first 2 characters of Pumpkin model numbers indicate the OEM. I don't know who "LM" is, but it's not one of the known manufacturers of HuiFei type units. So, Malaysk's firmware is very unlikely to work.

Mike I was told by Pumpkin that my unit is made by Senzchen Winmark Electronics Ltd in China. I went to their website and they sell my unit under a different part number DQ6514

Do you know were I can find more info about that? I'm really with itches to flash Malaysk's firmware in my AL-C0241 or AL-5701 (they are the same unit) and I really would love to have the original firmware to put back if something goes wrong...

Unfortunately I have not being able to find a workaround solution yet. I want to flash Malaysk rom like you but I do not want to brick the unit so I keep looking and asking for help. I have read and being told the following:
a) You need to be rooted to be able to backup your original rom.
b) You cannot go back to 4.2 either.
So the only solution is to find someone that can look in my case to both processors the rk3066 and rkpx2 and respond yes they are the same go ahead and do it.

I just checked your unit in Pumpkin website and it has the rk3188 processor. Malaysk rom is for the rk3188 and 3066. If the only requirement to flash this rom is just about the processor then you should be fine but I do not know this, maybe somebody else in this forum could help with answers.

I believe it's not the only but it's the most important. Come on guys, enlight the nooblets here!!! :angel:

Malaysk's firmware is meant for HuiFei type units. It is not known to work with others, even if they happen to use the same processor.
For instance, the Winlink/Ownice units (they have their own thread) will not work with Malaysk's firmware, even though some use the RK3188 and have the same resolution as some HuiFei type units.

thanks for your input Mike! this is the input that was missing.
that means I MUST put my fingers on my original firmware before try a rooted image.
Thanks again
Nuno

Some posts moved to new thread:

My 2 cents
I would just try to install the rk3066 version of the ROM and see if it works. I don't think you will have a problem, it should work.
I accidentally was trying to install the wrong one on my radio and it just didn't install didn't mess anything up.
Unzip the Rom and put it on a SD card with nothing else on it.
Put the SD card into the GPS sd card slot while the headunit is on and it will pop up a box saying it found a update or something and
just reboot the until and it should start installing it.
Well at least this worked on mine. Just do it you don't need the old ROM. Hope this helps

Hi all, I've a similiar car unit, same CPU, same screen resolution, I've found a link to sownload an original rom:
http://www.autopumpkin.com/pumpkin-...i-odb2-steering-wheel-control-for-toyota.html
and here direct link:
https://mega.nz/#F!UE9ElapD!A-uTerI11qQ86r2ModVnyg
inside there are both firmware and mcu, but I didn't find something to dump it to explore system files, from images seem to be better than MCU I have mounted on mine (specific Fiat Punto Evo car unit), I cannot Root it, cannot install CWM (bad update.zip message!), please, there is someone that can suggest me with (if there are) utility to use to dump it? it will be interesting also to investigate about it, to try to find some easy ways to root kk 4.4.4 rockchip px2 devices.
Thanks in advances.

I rooted mine very easy with couple key presses. There is a youtube video of it, takes 30 seconds

KR-6206 Kaier

Hello Guys
I need some help in flashing my device. I was going to try and flash my head unit today and tried a few things and now i cant even run the restore factory defaults. Well it runs and runs and runs and tells me not to restart the head unit but nothing happens so i switch off and on and its still good. In short i broke it.
The unit switches on and loads up fine but the wifi is all messed up i have to specify ip address to get anything to work.
My aim here is to flash to kitkat if not possible then back to factory. I managed to find this web site with firmware for my radio apparently. I cant find any instructions on how to do the update or do any kind of serial number matching or any kind of identification to avoid flashing wrong. I cannot post the link If you google kr-6206 Firmware its the first link and its by a website firmware-portal. I have registered to there site but cant find any kind of help or contact us. Even tho they say to contact them.
Radio details :
Android 4.2.2
MCU: 4.3.8-11-10-450101 WV(4.3.8, RDS, AD, BC6, Rohm37XXX, TEF662X)
System Version: 2.7.39

Ram 1GB DD3
8GB
Car DVD
GPS
TFT LCD 800*480 Screen
For SUBARU FORESTER Impreza 08-10
Bought on ebay in 2014
I realize this question must have been asked but not for this radio. If there is a good guide someone can recommend and also if someone can tell me if i can use the files i downloaded to try restore my radio to a proper working radio. Its really frustrating. I dont wanna brick the radio
Thank you for any help in advance

it think it's a unit based on http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=707069
see this thread on XDA

Thank you so much the king root managed to root my device. The only thing is none of those radios look just like mine. One very similar but not 100%.
The supplier from eBay sent me the software files but it dose not update android. Still stuck on 4.2.2. Im afraid to update. I need to figure out how to make a backup first before trying.
All and all the radio works now but no audio from the on board amp im guessing the power IC is fried.
Will keep you guys posted and thank you for the help

So the Agent sent me this. V2.9.5_20150513_800X480_SYSTEM_KED.rar. Its only 174.91M and contains 2 files. It did not update Android to higher version just the system version should i use the Version (2.9.1 800x480 - Most likely default software taken from AN-21U
@mxv68 - V2.9.1_20141217_800X480_SYSTEM_KED.rar) From the XDA forum will that work. Sorry to be so noob at this. First android device .
They have really not made this uncomplicated.

Try to use the navi IQ software from the 4pda forum, it's a hybrid rom.. it updates just Android so if it doesn't boot I can always go back if u have the old files.. with Phoenix suit u can make a backup.. but I didn't try it.

A-Sure S3 - 5.1.1 Intel head unit KYD - How to root and rom update.

After a lot of time trying to find out more about this unit, I thought I would create a thread and start it off with what I now know.
The unit is similar to the Joying unit, it uses the Intel processor and is non mcd. The manufacture is Kaiyide (KYD) the rom is again similar to the joying but not quite the same.
Passwords are 3368 for the main car settings and 0808 to change launcher. There is a password for something to do with the door locking, which I dont know.
Root is achieved the same way as the joying using the method posted by MMTK84 https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69648860&postcount=84&nocache=1&z=8361786322568856
The latest rom is available using the link below, extract the folders and load content into root on on a usb stick put it into the unit and it will auto detect and update.
https://mail.qq.com/cgi-bin/ftnExs_...18440714350f&t=exs_ftn_download&code=0c66ff52
When i installed the rom, I used the apps and boot animation from the latest Joying rom download both have installed correctly. Im unable to load the mcu update as it searches the manufactures info and as its not JY it wont update. If anyone can help with this I would like to try it as the MCU software is a lot older than the Joying. Can this be achieved by editing the build.prop file?
Please add to this thread and edit as necessary. I hope this helps A-Sure unit owners as the information is very difficult to find.

Hi,
Thanks for this post.

Hi Rick,
I'm interested in making this thread too, there seems to be no resources for this unit whatsoever.
Have just purchased an A-sure unit, ball ache trying to figure it all out without a manual. Although, A-Sure have now sent me one.
Have updated the ROM with your help, looks quite a bit different now.
I'm not a developer, more of a meddler, am too old now to take it in like I once did.
Cheers for now,
Alan.

Hi Alan, thank you for adding to the thread! You are quite right there is almost no information available for the A-Sure unit. Fortunately the information can be put together from various threads here on the XDA forum. But having it in one place makes sense.
I know exactly where you are coming from and I am the same more meddler than developer and also a lot older than when i used to install car audio and security for a profession. Im pleased that you found my info useful.
I would very much like to modify the DAB app so that it shows the station logos - or use another one if anyone knows an app that will work.
I have updated the iGO app on my unit - ugh took me a while to get it working. for that you need root access.
Most of the issues are now cured on my unit, I just have a problem with loosing gps when going between apps ie from iGo to poweramp and back (music player - way way better then stock app)
Best regards
Rick.

extract the package then open the first folder / second until you see a group of files, put those onto the fat32 usb stick and then try to update

Hi Rick, I also have a S3 unit of A-Sure (Intel sofia, 1GB, 16GB, WiFi Version). It looks like that A-sure offers currently no updates. I wrote 12 emails with no satisfactory answer to my questions. The system of A-Sure is very bad translated in German and contains many software problems. I would also like to update my system, as you have done it. Unfortunately the download link is offline. Can you put it online again? I have the S3 unit with the physical buttons. This information is based in the MCU, isn´t it? The android System is the same one? Can I set the Android system in German?
Thank you very much.

Pls upload the Firmware. Original link Down

WTF, no answer

Because no one answer here, I tried to update the ROM on myself. I have downloaded the ROM of Joying 20170328 and unpacked. I Have deleted the directory MCU, and the files 0308 STM8UD.BIN and STM8_PROJECT cov.s19 (I read that must be the original of A-Sure). I copy the files on a SD card and put it into the GPS slot. Unit is switched on and the update has started. After 10 minutes, on the screen was: Please remove SD card. I have done it. Nothing happens. Reset. Unit rebooted and has Android further installed. Then black screen. Reset again. Android starts, everything seems to work . In the info bar is in bold red font: MCU and UI do not fit together. Looks stupid ... But ok.
The physical keys work, only the DVD drive does not work. Apparently no driver in the Android system available. TOMTOM can not be installed (here you have to root the device and change the serial number). The translation of Chinese in German is clearly better than in A-Sure, in the radio app the RDS text is also no longer overlapping. More I have not tested yet, I'm glad that I have not shot the device.
I Think, i´m waiting for the offical update of A-Sure (if there will be one, I don´t think so...)
Yes, these were my first experiences.
Whether I would recommend it, I do not know.
Many advantages I have not recognized so far ...

Good news from A-Sure. They have a new firmware, directly to Android 6. No problems with updating, even TOMTOM works without routing and changing the ID...

Good news, thank you.
I have a problem with german text to speech in google navigation.
I tryed also the update to joying, but wifi didn't work.
Is there a download link for the update available?

I have used this upgrade, works perfectly but erases the IGO satnav.
I'd love to know how to put TomTom on this unit instead.

My unit is an A Sure AS-S3A3 Picture in my Album, see profile.

I have updated my Asure Opel headunit Type S3OVG.
Before the update the text to speech from google navigation didn't work. There was also an update shown, but updatescreen crashes when opened.
Now, after the update, all seems to work.

I have updated my A-Sure Android 7 Zoll Unit.
All working.

TomTec Head Unit Firmware

Hi All,
Looking for some help please. Trying to fix my friends head unit which had crashed and boots up and cuts off again so guessing an firmware issue.
Problem being is we are having no luck trying to get the latest firmware for the head unit as seller is asking for purchase details but my friend bought it off gumtree.
After spending a few hours on the internet researching this we have both came to the conclusion this is the radio in question: Ebay UK# 372660101740
His did have android 9.0 and looks identical with specs also.
He said model is: 8227L ?
Does anyone know where I can find a download to get this sorted ?
Many Thanks

Update
Hi All,
Finally managed to get the device on long enough to factory reset it which has got the radio back on but its wiped off a few of the apps that were pre-installed including the DAB+.
I have managed to get that reinstalled but its now not detecting the DAB+ box ?
Do I need to install something to get this to work ? - possibly for the USB ports??

Hello everyone. I received an updated Firmware directly from seicane for their head unit. This is Android 10 update for the 2/32 GB unit. Everything seems to be working great so far on unit. If you would like to try it for yourself please feel free to download and install. I'm not too tech savvy so if you have any questions I'll answer them the best I can. Thought I would share for anyone to update their own unit if possible
PLEASE BE ADVISED YOU USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!
I will not be held responsible for any damages done to your own unit.
Thank you!

The thing is, I can connect my phone to the radio unit, but I can't search for Bluetooth devices because there isn't a option for Bluetooth for it in the Android Menu.
Also the car unit doesn't run anything at background, except Maps or music app (only if it's playing something)

2/32g unit?
Thank you for the update. Question please... What do you mean by 2 unit? I have an Allwinner T3p1 k2001 Quadcore 1024x600 screen A23 Android 10 and wondering if I could use your update in case I brick mine while trying to root... Do you know if your update would be compatible with a quad core? Trying hard to find a way to root but cant find my device in twrp and super bummed no one has guided isoking with his rooting desires since I have the exact same model and MCU to the T. I appreciate any guidance you could give. Not sure which Magisk img or twrp would be ok to use for my device, all usb drivers I've tried do not work, and really want root access with Google install capability. Thank you!

These are Allwinner based on the Sunliq platform..Allwinner has locked USB debugging on these units, and there is a formal petition against them for that, they dont play clean with GPL..
Since there is no operational USB debugging, it cannot be rooted or custom recoveried for now..
