Need help rooting - Capacitive SC GPS Navi Android 4.4 2 Din 7" Car DVD Player Stereo
Specs:
CPU: Cortex A9 Dual Core
Android Version: 4.4.4
MCU Version: 4,3,13-1-13-610101-150413
System Version: 2.9.5_20150413
DVD Version: 2.13.11-hd860mc
This is the HU: http://www.ebay.com/itm/161676876555?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT
I have never rooted an android device and rooting something as fragile as a HU makes me nervous but I am needing to do so because I need to make my USB storage as internal storage. I am desperately trying not to brick this unit. I have read several threads regarding this but everyone seems to take different approaches and they have different car stereos than I. Not to mention I cant find a single user running Android Version 4.4.4. My unit was updated.
Will this method in this thread work? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61120805&postcount=7068

Can anyone help?

Is there anything specifically you are looking for?
Any ideas? I attempted to download Baidhu Root vs 2.4.6 and its asking for a password to unzip it.
You have an AN-21U.
You don't have 4.4.4 no matter what the settings screen says. You have android 4.1
Research the root methods from the AN-21U thread. Or better yet, just install RedMod (avail in that thread). Pre-rooted.
Just curious is Redmod an entire OS? Also I flashed it with 4.4.4 .. it didn't come that way. You sure it's still 4.1?
Rooted it with Redmod and everything seems to work fine.
Joying released an Android 8.1 update for PX5:
https://www.joyingauto.eu/blog/category/update-firmware/
Unfortunately I was unable to get it onto my (non-Joying) RNS. It currently runs Malaysk 2.0 and it's not recognized as an update. I also tried writing the sdupdate.img to a bootable SD card using the SD Firmware Tool and also tried the Malaysk for updating 6.0.1 => 8.0 by writing the 6.0.1 boot to the card and replacing the file. All methods failed. Maybe someone has more luck or at least it it interesting for the Joying users. I just wanted to try something different then the Malaysk rom for a change.
Just because joying decided to make a few updates to their 8.0 and call it 8.1 does not necessarily make it any newer than malaysk’s version.
Hi, I just bought joy
JOYING 2GB / 4GB RAM 32GB / 64GB ROM Octa Core CPU Android 8.0

I guess the 8.1 is newer than the 8.0. Also the Joying interface for settings, ... seems nicer. Just wanted to try something different but seems I have to stick to the Malay for now.

Joying/Joyous RK3188/PX5 units are not MTCD/E units, so you cant use any of Malaysk's ROMs and this thread is in the wrong forum.
Xtrons are advertising 8.1 headunits, is there any firmware that will work with a TE103AP? To get the latest firmware for these, we have to email Xtrons for a link that changes every time an update is released so nobody can see if there is a new update available unless you email them, surely they get bored replying with everyones requests for new updates...

No idea what a "TE103AP" is - "TE103AP" is a made up name by Xtrons - they are a seller only and not a manufacturer, they sell units from several different manufacturers.
On XDA we go by the MCU number as this is the only reliable way of identifying an android headunit.
So post your MCU, that way both yourself and XDA members can identify your unit.

Interesting, but they use RK3399/PX6 chipset, so the ROM wont work on MTCD/E RK3368/PX5 devices, the only way you could upgrade to 8.1 would be to buy an RK3368/PX6 SoM, unless MTC bring out an 8.1 update for the RK3368/PX5, which they might well do.
The RK3369/PX5 is hexacore ie 2 less cores than the RK3368/PX5, but they clock faster than the RK3368/PX5 at 2Ghz (RK3368/PX5 1.5Ghz).
The units in those links are MTCD/E units.
not only clock,
at same clock an Cortex A72 is (lot) better than an Cortex A53. ( https://images.anandtech.com/doci/10347/79519.png ) https://www.anandtech.com/show/10347/arm-cortex-a73-artemis-unveiled
(The PX5 is look like an Snapdragon 425 (or 62x) whereas the PX6 look like a Snapdragon 650 (2 Cortex A72 + 4 Cortex A53)

2 less cores but better processor.
Not sure I can be bothered to upgrade again tough - I went from MTCB/C dual core to MTCB/C quad core to MTCD/E quad core to MTCD/E octa core, I ll think I ll stick with octa core for now, it ll be ages before @Hal9k_ releases a custom ROM for the hexa core units !
BTW @ds980x your unit is an MTCD/E unit and in the MTCD/E form there are 3 custom ROMs available plus many factory ROMS, you are not tied to any links Xtrons give you.

Hi
i am new here.
Actually i try to build a own Custom Rom for a Andorid HU Unit from AOSP. In a first run i would like to use the AOSP Automotive soure.
How it actually is : KSW provides a ROM for several HUs as it is. A lot of manufactures are supoorted so the there are a lot of users in the automotive area.
Start point:
The Units Work with a SD625 alias MSM8953 with 2GB RAM or 4GB RAM
What i did:
Searched for a kernel soure.
Found this A11 MSM8953 Kernel this supports A11.
Got the AOSP A11 Automotive soure in a Ubuntu and i think i am able to compile this.
The main question is:
Are these two components enough to build a full proper ROM?
I read something about Hardware binarie files are they needed ?
How is it with a launcher, is the launcher in AOSP included or do i have to add one by my self.
How can i add GAPPS to ROM ?
Thanks for your help

PS. I think my pc is strong enough to do so.

Hello,
I have a generic smart tv which I would love to have a custom ROM for. Unfortunately, I don’t have the appropriate resources to make it happen. So I would like to ask the XDA community to help me out. It’s currently running Android 4.4.4, and I would love to have it upgraded to Android 5.1.1
Specs:
Board: MStar MSD6A628-T8E3
RAM: 512MB
ROM: 4G (Although 2GB usable)
CPU: MStar MSD6A628 With MALI-450
I have the original firmware file if that helps

Thanks, although performance is bad. I recommend to use SmartTube
