Hey guys,
I recently bought a Joying headunit (JY-UM138P2) and I am wondering if there is a way to root my device.
I tried Kongoroot and it failed. Joying Extra Tools won't work beacuse it is not a Sofia Model. And as far as I can tell there is no custom firmware for this model availabile.
Android Version: 6.0.1
CPU: ARM Cortex A53 eight-core 2+32GB PX5, GPU: PowerVR G6110
Info on System: APP 1024*600 2017-01-11 19:13:52
MCU Version: 2017-11-06 17:57:54 JY_(R68)__26_C26_6026_CAN(All)
Which is the main problem as I cannot tell from this if it is an MTCC, MTCD or MTCE unit.
In general I actually do only want to have read and write acceess to the system/media folder to be able to switchout the bootanimation.zip for a custom one that I created.
Thank you!

So far the Joying units were rooted on linux/adb level.
So if you can make an adb connection over WiFi to your unit, you already have root terminal access via adb.
That is enough for doing what you want.
Well, so far I managed to establish an ADB via wifi connection (without using an usb cable, as I dont have a male to male usb cable).
But it lists my headunit as an unauthorized device.

Hello, I just got my new HU (same as yours) I was able to root with kingoroot over usb adb. Go to Developer options (pw 3368), In the top right corner, underneath the back button is a menu icon. Tap and then tap "USB computer connection." Then select the bottom option. I believe only the left side USB will work (when facing front of HU) and you may need to toggle the USB debugging switch. Windows, adb based kingoroot will work.
Only problem, root will not stick after reboot...I was able to install xposed framework, and install xposed Additions. Additions still works after loss of root, so not so bad. I use a RcJoyCon to HW keyboard for my SWC I am still experimenting with other apps.
Does loss of root mean a locked bootloader?
I also had no male to male USB, just made my own. Just twisting the wires together worked fine.
Please share if you learn of any ways to retain root.
Will monitor this thread, as Im looking for root for JY-UM135P2 too. Will try the usb method soon.
EDIT: tried to make custom male to male usb. Connected the 5 wires. Laptop and hu doesnt recognise the cable.

My usb mod only involved 4 wires. Not sure whats going on with the extra wire, that may be the issue. Double check your connections.
Was able to re-root today using my X98 tablet, Good news for the future, when needed after car install. Its rare that you would need to reboot anyways, after all the software mods have been done . Deep sleep retains root, and the device is only drawing 0.01Amps(limit of measure)
I'll have more to share for these non MTCD/E, PX5 units in the future. Have found a way to keep user apps in memory, after deep sleep by using xposed modules. Tasker now stays active.
Oke today tried again. Bought male to male usb. Still the cable js not recognised in both usb ports. Enabled usb debugging and tried lower and upper option in the chinese menu from developer options. So no clue for now
Experimental and untested
As some of you might know I created a windows and linux script to install seSuperuser onto the Joying Sofia3GR Intel units.
I just compiled su and the Superuser.apk for the PX5 models. I do not have a PX5 and therefore this is completely untested!
Prerequisites:
- You need to have adb over tcpip working.
- (Linux) You need to have adb installed (but you have otherwise the line above would not be possible)
- Have a Joying PX5 ROM available so you can reflash if necessary.
On your pc:
Download the attached Superuser-JoyingPX5-Arm.zip onto your pc/laptop.
Unzip it somewhere on your pc/laptop.
On Windows: Run CMD.exe as Administrator.
On Linux like OSes: Open a terminal.
Change to the folder where you unzipped the files and change to the folder where the install.sh and install.bat are located.
On Windows: Run the install.bat script with the IP address of your Head Unit as a parameter: install.bat 192.168.178.50 (for example)
On linux: Run the install.sh script with the IP address of your Head Unit as a parameter: ./install.sh 192.168.178.50 (for example)
Wait until the script finishes.
Reboot your Head Unit.

Hi gtxaspec,
Are you planning to make an custom rom for these Rockchip PX5, FYT 6026 bases headunits?
I have your GTX joying ROM V9a3an on a Joying FYT6021 intel SoFIA and it works so much better than the stock rom.
Keep up the good work!

i finally got my device connected and also got the unauthorized message:
"This adbd's $ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server' if that seems wrong.
Otherwise check for a confirmation dialog on your device."
I tried everything i could find on the net and in your link but still had no luck...
Does anybody have an idea what else I could try?
The thing with my device is - in order to be able to connect to it with adb I had to change something in the developer options menu: in the top right corner there are 3 dots (even above the On/off switch) and there you can only choose "USB computer connection" - if you click on that a popup menu appears "USB MODE" and 2 chinese options to choose from. It was set on the first option but only works if set on the second option (it's chinese so i can not read it)
This is an Allwinner T3-P3 unit (Quad core).
No "hardware buttons"on the face. Touch screen with side bar of non-mechanical buttons.
I am trying to get a different MCU on it as the one I have will not work with the radio or Aux Input.
So, I managed to load a rooted/moded rom and have root access.
The "upgrade start" screen flashes by and won't recognize a 64gig Micro-SD in the GPS location no matter what the format (extfat, NTSF, FAT32..nothing).
Phoenix boot doesn't seem to work or at least not with this card and the img files I have (img will not load in phoenix).
Doesn't seem and IMG file is recognized by the system either.
Also tried an 8gig USB stick on the external USB ports (marked USB and USB DVD).
I can get to the ADB screen (from recovery) however, it will not connect with any of my computers (2 of them one Window 10 and another Windows 7). Many drivers installed but the PC
will not see the Eonon GA2163. Device manager shows nothing connected/recognized.. no "!" either or "other" device.
Help, please.
Forgive me if this beginner posted improperly.
I bought this unit and it has the following data:
build.id=MRA58K; build.version.release=6.0; product.model=8227L_demo; product.brand=alps; product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a,armeabi; Processor : ARMv7 rev 3 (V71); MCU TSB07-180613.
For the last month I tried a lot in order to root this unit, but to no avail. My windows laptop does not see the unit through USB; bought all types of "data" cables but no good. Tried all of the root apks, none worked. Apparently there is no "recovery" or I cannot access it. Can anybody help?
Thanks
Radu

Maybe you've already found a solution to this or moved on, but I had a similar issue.
I resolved it by changing USB 'host' mode to 'device' mode, under Car Settings - Settings (000000) - USB Setting - usb mode .
I also found that only one of the USB ports allows ADB access..
Hi there,
I have seen that there is a update for my car stereo on this link:joyingauto.eu/blog/post/joying-intel-airmont-sc9853i-car-stereo-latest-update
I have downloaded the file "9853i 1024X600 or 800X480 Google 2019.5.15.zip" using the first link on that page to my mac.
I have upzipped the file.
I have copied all(5 files, 1 folder) the files to usb drive(fat32).
I connected the usb drive to each of the usb ports of joying JY-VO131N4.
But joying doesn't start anything. It's not picking the update automatically.
Do you have any idea what I am doing wrong?
Link to my system:aliexpress.com/item/32870185927.html
Model Name: JY-VO131N4
CPU: Intel SC9853i Octa Core 1.8GHZ
Thanks in advance,
Hikmet
If you have an sd-card remove it first and do it safely (Settings, remove). Do not just drag it out.
If it still does not work, try with an sd-card
Hello, please help with updating and where to download new software for the above-mentioned radio. Chipset AC8227L, 1/16 GB. I downloaded programming from https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/help-with-this-chinese-hu-alps-8227l_demo.3930394/ ; every time ith throws an error to let me check the usb and files. I changed 3x USB stick and memory cards, each time the same, FAT32 format.
Hi, format SD card possibly greater than 4GB with standard settings - FAT32 or ExFAT file system and deafult allocation rate.
Next, download one of firmwares that suits your device (for 8227L it has a lot of them on this forum but your device maybe have different UI than XPH.8227_8_xxxxxx mentioned in this above link).
In my oppinion the ones that will work for your model begins with XRC,CHS, JC.
Firmware for download are like this example : CHS.8227L-8.UI4.Android_10_ver.6_xxxx(date of update)
After download and unzipping two files, .bin and .upd transfer those two files on freshly formated disk, nothing else just these two files. If transfering from PC or laptop make sure that you eject the drive before pulling out from PC.
Next step is to make the unit recognize system on SD card. Put the ignition key in contact mode or better turn engine on (before that insert SD card in memory card slot, not MAP slot !) and start tapping with one finger on center on screen untill message DETECTED is seen on upper screen area. If successful it will recognize files and start automatically updating (wait till finishes and enters system / UI), if not or fails to recognize files for update repeat process two or three times untill successful.
If still nothing, enter erase mode / recovery mode (purge of internal memory and files) by tapping with all five fingers on screen. When recovery is completed (it will turn to factory settings) device will be empty of all memory tasks, prevoius configurations etc. , just clean install of Android system, running and with no apps and settings configured. Then insert SD card and try update again.
If device even won't go in recovery mode then you have some factory settings like "protection" or "install" enabled. Turn this off both in factory settings / menu OTHER.
Good luck !
Can I ask for a link where can I download the above software ? unfortunately I cant't find it in google.

It's on forum here just type in search bar 8227L firmware and find best choice for you. If not found wil send you a link.
Sorry but I am not able to find the latest software compatible with my radio, there is too much of it, please help.
I will add that my radio does not have slots for SD cards and Maps, there is only a female USB input to which I can connect a USB flash drive, the device is fully touchable without buttons.
it is probably a Chinese counterfeit I bought on aliexpress, there will be a problem with the selection of the update
Similar firmware to yours is here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1a9yoWoiuMZRoQVL5O677Y9tmQHHAtmbo
Try to install this one it is TSKJ/CHS UI firmware for devices with 8227L chipset.
Extzract and put downloaded files onto USB drive formated for FAT 32 and try updateing.
memory formatted in FAT32, tried for two different, only two files extracted, each time in green DETECTED and after a while in red "Fail, please check USB and files", I tried several times
restoring the settings with a five-finger touch also did not work
I deleted the data to the initial state, but the update still does not start
I noticed that if I detach the USB and I make a finger movement during startup, the symptom is the same, as if I would not see the usb
Do you have install option in factory settings disabled ? Or protection option ? If do deactivate PROTECTION and enable INSTALL in factory settings (pin code) / OTHER submenu. Then try updating again.
yes, I have it done, I also entered the pin, unfortunately unchanged
Use another USB drive with 2.0 speed not 3.0 if this is the case.
Maybe it's just some stupid thing like this that is keeping you from updating.
If this not succesfull either check your device usb ports if they are working thru USB debug command in factory settings, also turn on all USB to be 2.0 and not 1.1 maybe will help somehow. I think that USB port is missconfigured and are causing not to update.
Another thing , if you have by hand any SD card and USB card reader try with that.
I have debugging turned on in the settings after entering the code 8888, and the USB is switched to 2.0, I tried with a new pendrive and with an SD card reader that I put into the USB, unfortunately still unchanged, I also changed the USB input on the back of the radio by switching the cable

Hm, this is a hard one, has this unit of yours been rooted ?
Honestly, I don't know how can I check it? how to root?
If it turns out I have root, does that change anything?
Install from Google play any app that contains root tester and see. Yes if it is rooted device is modified and altered and do not have stock firmwares, which leads to undesired complications and problems.
If the device turns out to be root, it is possible to work around it in some way to install other software?
I checked, the app showed that my device does not have root
today I bought memory 2.0, but still unchanged, these are my settings, is everything ok?
