A couple of years ago I bought this head unit for my F10 BMW:
12.3 inch Bigger Stand Screen... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KZXG42G?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I am not a fan of the interface and there are a bunch of issues as well. I would like to install another rom but I am not sure what I should be looking for. First, are there even roms for this head unit/processor? Second, is it worth it or will it just inject more issues? I have installed roms on quite a few devices but never a head unit. Thanks!
Try searching forums for prefix of MCU version, or posting details of Android system information including MCU version
I have the same situation. Do I need to change the whole headunit for android 12 or is it possible to update this unit?

Hi!
Recently, I bought an Android 2Din Unit. Actually it should have Android 6.0 installed on the device. However, after the installation it turned out, that there is Android 5.1 on it. It seems that the manufacturer/brand does not even have an own homepage/forum to provide updates etc.
I wonder if I can use the software update from another, quite similar device. The one I have, does look very similar to another Chinese Android 2DIN from Pumpkin. It is an Intel Sofia device with 2GB RAM 1024x600px Display and 16GB ROM.
This is my unit
This is the almost identical Pumpkin unit 11-RQ0278E
Would it be possible to simply use an update file from the mentioned Pumpkin unit? Or are there also working custom ROMs here on XDA?
Thanks in advance
I've spent most of the last week researching android units and it can be a real headache. I thought I'd come to the headquarters of android knowledge and see if anyone could give me some direction.
I'm looking for a universal fit double din android 8.0 unit that is capable of flashing Malaysk ROMs for PX5. I've found a few but none that have all the features I want, or at least don't have them listed. I don't care whether it has a disk drive or not but I would really like wireless android screen mirroring, rca output for 5 channels and an internal dsp that offers time alignment. I would also prefer a 6.5 to 7 inch screen for flush mounting in my car. I've managed to find a unit I liked, the EONON GA2171S, which has everything I want but it says it requires usb for screen mirroring with android phones. I'm not even sure if it will work with the firmware either. Any advice would be appreciated.
Suggest posting in malaysk forums or MTCD q&a.
Hi I hope someone can help.
I have an old Android 7 7" Xtrons 2 din multi media touch screen head unit and wondered if there was a way to update it to a newer version of android rather than having to keep buying new units every few year to have newer verion as with my Android phone.
Im guessing it would need to be forceably updated in some way as there is no way within the unit from what I can see to beable to do this via usb or something.
I would appreciate any help ppl can give me.
Stay safe. JJ
Helo.
I bouht a new car with the Android 7918 head unit.
The head unit have the Android 8.1 on it and I'm looking for Android 9, because a couple of things don't work properly on it (most anoying is the not working RDS). I searched like crazy but found nothing.
Does any off you have any information or even files to upgrade it?
Thanks in advance and have a nice day.
I ordered this unit from China and am having a tough time deciding exactly what it is. Settings say it's a T3-P1. Aliexpress showed that if it's 8 core it is a T8. The thing that's confusing me is the MCU Version which shows "stm32-20190924-11-kc1-38" instead of the normal T8 that I've been seeing with the T8 units discussed on here. STM32 seems to be common in the Rockchip PX6 units? My processor is listed as sun8iw11 but everything I search on that comes up for quad core and the settings info shows it to have 8 cores.
I was hoping someone could help lessen the confusion I have with this unit. I believe it to be the T8, but the STM32 MCU version has me scratching my head as it doesn't seem to match any of the T8 MCU's that all seem to start with T8 I've read about on here. All I really want to do is get the development settings enabled, which seem to be missing completely as far as I can tell, so I can set a mock location app. Also on that note, the extra settings on this unit is hidden, you have to tap os version then kernel version 3 times and it never prompts for password. Root would be cool too, but I'm not very hopeful that it is possible on this unit, although, figuring out exactly what I have is the first step to any mods anyways.
I've included a couple pictures of the settings pages on the unit and one for the technical specs that were listed on the aliexpress page when unit was purchased. All help is appreciated!
Should be noted as well, tapping on Kernel version, OS version 3 times to access the hidden settings is something I found in a RockChip PX6 thread. It's weird, I almost feel like it has T8 hardware running PX6 software and MCU or something.
