Hello people,
I'm new on the forum and also on android world.
I recently got an android head unit with 6.0.1 as the installed version. It looks fluid, no bugs. but I really don't like the UI.
Here is my questions :
Which launcher you recommend for me?
Which are the must have apps that you recommend?
Is there any way to make an upgrade to a newer version of Android OS?
Thanks for your help,
Abdelkrim
Hello!
I am sure this topic has been covered before but couldn't find any information I am looking for unfortunately. I got a 10.1" Android headunit off AliExpress and it came with Android 6.1.1. I would really like to update the system to android 8.1 if possible. I tried going to system update in the settings and it states "path does not exist." If you guys have any input or links to where I can download the software and still keep the functionality of the tablet for my car, please let me know!
Thanks!

Hello all,
Can anyone explain the file structure significance? I believe the 427c4ecc-c1fc-11e8-b558-cb289b80f7d2.0 - 0.4 files make up the system.img. What is 43864958-c1fc-11e8-b9ce-0701f06faf8a?
PS: It seems there is problem with this file. system.img will not extract, software will load but not boot.

I didn't test it yet. But I'm interested in where to get these custom roms for this device. And mcu update files maybe.
Any updates about device manufacturer?
I've checked out this thread on 4pda.ru: Head devices Topway TS9 (Spreadtrum SC9853I) Android 8.1 - Discussion | MCU Version Ts9.4.3-xxx-xx-xxxxx-xxxxxx Series
But they are talking about android 8.1 TS9-devices and also still don't gave me useful information.
Is there anyone with same hardware?
V11.1.1_20200608.150248_TW-V1-X-GT

Same here. Software installed successfully, but will not boot. It hangs on the car logo screen. I had to flash back original software. How to solve this problem?

Hi ! Is this firmware Android 8.1? I'm using Android 9.
Can you leave feedback after upgrading please?
Is this official rom or custom firmware? I would be glad to hear from you. :fingers-crossed:

Good to go. Looks like original firmware, all stock, installed today with no issues.
My multimedia is Preling Tesla style for Opel one. 4/64 ts9. Dont think it is kind difference between firmwares, once disassembled a lot of them, this one by tw.
As well used magisk root recovery, all is working.
Asked seller for new firmware for one hundred times and found it myself on internet by mistake =). BTW all this is not 9 android like it called in info it is 8.1. Also get info regarding upcoming android 10. Will see. Personally waiting for RedMode firmware because of buttons reassignment possibility.
PS. Is it any good rom maker or hard experienced app modifier with this kind of multimedia?

Nice. My multimedia is same as yours and for Opel, too. Do you discovered any differences between the TW and GT firmware?

Yes, I asked the seller for new firmware and mcu updates, too. More often. They answered only, no new firmware at this time. I could not believe that because mine was released on december 2019.
So, this (new) firmware you have is android 8.1, isn't it?

Sorry, but I don't know. My experiences in app development and disassembling are a little bit outdated.
P.S.: Do you know an working autostart app for this multimedia? I have tried out many apps, but all of them are not working.

A couple of small improvements. I think this is the last available ROM on the market now. Have root and launcher with opel sedan logo on desktop implemented.
Have one annoying bug with original Bluetooth application. It is double skipping forward backward ie one press two track forward. Think that problem is partially hardware issued.
BTW all the firmwares for this multimedia is 8.1.
Hope somewhen redmod for ts9 tesla will be released once i need key relearn feature.

Thanks for your reply.
So, now I'm pretty unsure to keep my stock android 9 and waiting for upgrades or downgrade to android 8.1
Do you know if root is working on android 9?
What will you do in my case? What I want is root and future updates, of course.
Hi everyone, can any one help me with the following?
I bought a Android HU on Taobao with a system version of V10.5.5_20210311.193033_TW2.
The device information is showing Android 10. However when I hit this column multiple times, it showed a marshmallow icon, which I believe it's an Android 6 version.
I used 3rd party software like CPU-Z to reconfirm on the android version and it says Android 6 too.
May I ask if t's possible to upgrade to Android 10? And can anyone direct me to the solutions?
Thanks in advance.
bump for help. Can anyone advise on how to proceed with updating android 6 to 10? Or is it impossible? Thanks much.
Hey guys got a rkpx6 vertical head unit running android 9.0. I was wondering if there is anyways to upgrade the android version to a newer version such as 10 or 11. All I can find is 100$ firmware they try to sell you that adds "themes" doesn't update anything really regarding Android.
Here's some pictures with device/software information:
Anyone?

There is for now no way to get Android 10 onto these units.
...and by the way. Reminder only the next day.
