Need help with a (possibly) Seicane unit - Android Head-Units

Hi,
I tried to search but did not find anything, and do apologize if this is a sort of a question everyone is sick of.
The unit is in the Honda accord 2007 we got. It appears to be a seicane, i think, based on the outside. I did not rip it out yet to see what is on the back side of it.
From the interface it does not seem to have any way to show its Android signature. All i can see is this screen shown below.
The Navi function does not work - if i press that button, just nothing happens. The car controls, AC, radio all seem to work. Both SD card slots on both sides of the unit are empty.
I am unable to find any details online for this unit, looks like it may be an older one? Would be great to figure out if it is upgradable, and what firmware can be used on it.
Please help.
Thx, Paul.
PS. I already switched radio to 'US' setting, as it was not tuning in properly.

This is for sure an older Win CE5 or 6 unit.
If you want to stay on it, you need to find an older Win CE navigation, because all the stuff of the navigation incl. maps needs to be on this SD card. The Nav button on your unit searches always on the SD card marked with Navi or similar on the front.
...and yes, no one uses these old units anymore, there is at least no support available in this forum.

Need Help Identifying Android Headunit

Hi, Sorry for the noob question but I am new to Android Headunits. My Car Honda City had a non-android head unit which stopped working so I had to replace it and I procured a new head unit from the local market and got it installed. Now the problem is that I want to use steering controls on Apps Such as Saavn, Spotify etc but I tried using the MTCDTools which didn't work for me. My Headunit has PX5 board but in the MCU field, there is something else. I am attaching the pictures of the same and will be very helpful If someone can help me figure out how I can make the steering controls work. They Work on Radio, Bluetooth and Native Music Player.
Also, Is it possible to root this android headunit as I was looking to install Viper4Android. It doesn't have any card slot there are only USB Slots available

Tesla Style Radio recommendation for a Lexus RX350 2007 with OEM NAV and Camera

Hi all, I hope everyone is doing well.
I am new to the forums and first time posting, so please don't kill me!
Looking forward to get a tesla style unit for my Lexus RX350 2007 with Factory Nav and backup camera. I am located in Texas - USA.
Was just wondering if you guys have any recommendations what would be the best/fastest unit available for my car. The goal would be to keep the OEM backup camera and possibly have compatibility with custom firmwares, like Sergey's for example (could be any other).
I am not a picky person as far as sound quality, all I am really looking for on the unit is to be able to use the OEM camera, Spotify, google maps, Control4 (home automation application) and maybe some youtube now and then.
 To be able to have the unit in Dark mode would be a huge plus too.
I sent a message to this seller and he replied confirming this unit is pretty much “plug and play-ish” (needs the original AC board) and supports the OEM backup camera. He also sent me a screenshot showing the Device Information. Not sure if you guys have seen or worked if this unit before. The seller said they usually release updates every quarter or so, not sure if this is true.

(I would get the 6gb RAM/128gb model)

Android Head unit 4GB/32GB - Sound problem

Hi
I have an Android HU, which on the whole works well, except that when the HU is turned on the sound comes on too loud, even if the previous session was playing on a low level. It's as though the default sound level is too high, however, it occasionally, plays the sound at a very low level. All in all it is very erratic. The details of the HU are attached and I would appreciate if someone can advise if their is a suitable ROM that can overcome this problem.

Interesting, haven't seen YT9216B with so much RAM. Where did you buy it?
After the update it showed the details below
Then it did an MCU Upgrade and showed the details below, so I can only think that it's fake.
BTW, I know you have thread for a Super Mod, can I install that without taking the unit out of the car, i.e in situ

Yes, you can install the YT9216B software package. As always, follow all the instructions closely. I still recommend doing this on a desktop as it'll take you many hours to install the package and configure it. But if you are okay with sitting in the car for that long, who am I to stop you

I got a new Head unit, I need a lot of help, please

Hi, guys I'm new at this, so bear with me, I got a new android 10 unit from AliExpress, https://a.aliexpress.com/_mLwdGdk, the t7 with 4gb 64gb storage. I got here and checked and it's fine, same specs. My car is a Peugeot 508 2013.
Everything is working according to the specs, but the canbus setting are very different from what I've seen in other units alike this one. The seller has been trying to help me, but is hard due the language barrier and the time difference, 12 hours. I have the code for the factory settings. 3368, dunno if that is helpful.
First I can't seem to find how to put the front camera after reverse with the lines, I tried one option and swaps, but stays on it doesn't automatically turns off. Also there is no option to change the resolution of the camera in the radio.
I saw another video and that unit got messages from the car into the unit.
That's a canbus problem, if it is can I buy another one? Or can it be upgraded without bricking it. Is a launcher issue?, I'm lost.
Also is it safe to install any other launcher via the playstore?
Any tips are really appreciate it.
Thanks
This is the canbus I got installed with the car.

Here are the pics, according to the seller it cannot be used like that, if I change the canbus for another model of canbus that supports my 508? will the menu change of the canbus? or it has to be the software? Can I install for example the junsun or joying? That has the same CPU?

10.1 Android Stereo Head Unit in Loop

We recently got a 10.1 Android Stereo Head Unit from those Amazon Return Stores for $8. By the looks of it, it has stayed in a start up loop. I believe it might not have the android software because it starts up with Android 11 wording, then Android wording comes out as if loading in white to grayish, then different colored circles appear in the center with i believe Chinese letters at the bottom and its seems to be loading there and then it freezes and starts the same loop again and again. I have tried holding the reset button on the top left corner with different variation of touching the power, return, home, volume up, volume down and no luck. I don't even know how to enter recovery mode. I have tried looking it up online but cant seem to pin point the model number or brand. Does anyone know how I can flash android on it, maybe any android stereo head unit will work on this? Any guidance would be appreciated. I have uploaded some images to see if anyone recognizes the unit. Thank you!

Hi,
I don't know Chinese, but this message on the screen means something like "under cleaning" according to Google Translate.
And you can't flash any firmware even it's for head units, (in a nutshell) as it varies a lot from device specification.
Yeah I figured, the only thing is trying to figure out what brand it is to see if they have a website or a email to contact.
Open it carefully (are there flat cables) and check for some code on the main board. Search for this code on Google.
Good luck.
$8, that will be a great bargain if you can get it going again!
