Android 12 Head Unit uis8581a aux auto switch setting - Android Head-Units

Hi all,
I am new to the forum. I just bought one of these Android 12 radio unit for my Mercedes GL450. Everything is working so far. I get the original car interface and I get the Android side with the AUX input.
The only thing that I can't figure out is how to have it auto switch to AUX when I go to the Android side. I have googled and seen that other units can do auto switch but there are auto-aux switch setting that needs to be changed. The seller only gave me the 8888 password and that doesn't seem to have that setting.
Anyone have any idea if this is possible? Is there another password for more detailed factory settings?
Thanks!

Hi,
I have attached the photo with version and MCU.
Thanks for helping!

Not FYT, requested moderator move to (Android head-units) forum.
Unknown/Oddball headunit.

Is this actually an FYT head unit? If not, please let me know so that this can be moved to the general Android Head-Units section.

Hi,
I have no idea if this is an FYT head unit or not. Can you please move this thread to the general Android Head-Units section?
Thanks!

Please consult with your seller first, explain your situation, he will be more helpfull than searching on your own for hours.

I have this exact head unit for BMW. My code (8888) works when I hit thr settings button on the home screen, then I click factory settings and enter code. This is separate from the android settings. Oh, and I had to switch to AUX in the ORIGINAL OS, so change it to the Mercedes screen (mine switches when I hold the menu button down for 3 seconds)

Information on Pumpkin 12-C0257-US

Hey,
i recently purchased a truck that had this headunit it it, previous owner said it didnt work well - as far as i can see the sound works very intermittently, perhaps playing for a second, then nothing for 5-10, keystrokes when typing on the keyboard to play, and you do hear the music briefly, so i know it has the potential to work. perhaps it just needs firmware? can anyone guide me as to information on this? what common unit it it based on? what firware can i flash onto it - if any?

ive tried reaching out to pumpkin and had no response, and it wont let me force it to reboot with pressing the RST button followed by the "middle button" for two short presses and then a long press uuntil the menu appears"
it does have an SD card inside the unit, which i have seen it advised that they use this to force an update?
anyone lend a hand?
happy weekend.
I dont know what it is I m afraid, but it DEFFO is not and MTCB or MTCC unit.
Maybe someone else will be able to identify it.

Thanks for your input. This thing is driving me insane - I don't want to buy a new unit if this thing is salvageable.

I would read through the Android Headunit General forum and see if you can see any with the same info in the settings/about device screen as yours.

I'll have a look again, but I did scroll through for a good time and didn't find anything, seems like this is an uncommon variant of pumpkins devices.

Hi Tobi.
This is how to update this unit via the internal sd card.

Actually there are no Pumpkin devices, Pumpkin are a seller, they buy from several different manufacturers and sell as their own.
Hope the post from @brocky2k1 above helps you.

Identify my head unit please!

Hi there, I'm trying to identify my unit to find out what I can do with it and how to customise the interface. I'm having real trouble with eventcenter messing up what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to use Nova launcher with KLWP as the interface which is set at the live wallpaper to work, but the system apps (phone, media, settings etc) keep resetting the wallpaper, I think it's eventcenter.apk that's doing this. Is there a way around this? I could use another launcher if that would work but I like KLWP as I can position everything with precise design.
Thanks

You have a Rockchip based Android 9 head unit, type PX30 RK3368. There isn't much you can do with this unit according to other users.
Best you can do is to upgrade to a more current, preferably MTCE-based Rockchip Head Unit that will allow you to run Malaysk MOD - which is simply amazing.

The unit is not an MTCD type.
The processor is actually an RK3399 [ PX6 ] processor and is adequate SOC.
I couldn't find any information on XDA regarding your head unit type.
Unfortunately I can't as there are no other android units for my car, that's a shame. Really just want to find out how to bypass the eventcenter hijacking everything

I guess I don't know what makes a unit MTCD or not, and if it's PX6, are there ROMs available?

Not that I could find here based on the information provided.
Unit looks odd ball.
This is frustrating, so the SOC is good but the MCU is an unknown basically?

Please read my reply again. I never stated his unit is MTCD. I said that he should get a new head unit, preferably of MTCE type.

Android seicane h2 and external dac

hey everybody my dad just bought a new seicane
Double din H2 10.0 android
With the DSP add on
It’s in a 2012 Toyota sienna
We had a second there originally and we moved to an Alpine
But he’s giving me the Alpine to throw in another car so he got this new one
Problem is the sub else does not have any sound
Things don’t seem to be working correctly
I’ve seen this as a common issue
But is there any actual fix?
Also is it possible to use an external dac?
I have an audio technica and Berhinger card
Using a separate app to push audio through USB output it works but I want to get android system sound to go through
That way radio Bluetooth and all other sounds are pushed out
Hi, most probably , must change radio chip settings in infotainment hidden /admin menu, there is an option IC type of radio, must change to other chip settings.Try with that first

From what I see there is only a part called extra settings with the password 126
Otherwise I’ve checked everywhere I could

I’m like really struggling lol
What is in factory settings ? Can you make photo of that menu (if it asks pin code try 8888 or what number it is)
And add photo of the menu RADIO in pic nb. 3 please.
"rk3368_user debug" - this is the designation of software update you might look for.
It is most probably on Russian PDA forum. Find & download right software and update device. It might fix the problem. That is one solution.
I'll study more when you get this pic of that radio menu.
P.S. What version of android is it and is it PX5 or PX6 chip?
Look for answers here also - this is for CAN bus and audio control related to alpine: https://www.wranglerforum.com/threa...-premium-sound-in-january-2020.2391881/page-2
Still struggling
For a 2012 Toyota Sienna
Here ya go
Ask your seller for update of system image. If problem is with software not hardware seller must have tyxxxx factory settings update files.

Newbie Question: What kind of headunit do I have?

Hi all
New here, so please be kind ;-)
I've purchased the following headunit from Aliexpress. It is the 12.3" 6G128G LTE Carpl 360 model. It is for a 2011 Toyota Prado 150 Kakadu with navigation system, amplifier and factory 360 cameras.
I downloaded the AIDA64 app which states the Manufacturer is sprd and model ums512 1h10_Natv and brand is SPRD.
Figuring this was a Spreadtrum model I went to the General FYT based Spreadtrum uis7862 (unisoc ums512) - Q&A, Mods, tips, firmware page and read through things there. The first thing I did then was download the HWGet_Info.apk app and ran it on my headunit. The response was "I did not find any FYT properties. This means your unit is NOT a FYT compatible unit. It stops here."
So this is where I'd like some pointers as to where to start please.
I'm attaching a couple of photos which hopefully might help.
Kind regards
Michael

AIDA is not helpful for Android car radios.
Important is the System Setting page you showed in the first 2 pics.
It is stated there...
You got a TS10 unit. If you use the search function in this forum you will find a lot of different threads regarding this kind of unit.
--> https://forum.xda-developers.com/se...c[child_nodes]=1&c[nodes][0]=4267&o=relevance
Thanks so much Rigatoni...I've started having a bit of a read. A lot to learn.
I appreciate your help
Cheers Michael
Have the same car type and the same head unit type. I managed to install it but no steering wheel controls and the sound plays with gaps (2-3 second play silence fot some seconds again play). Cameras work, original cd plays fine, temperature control works. Did you manage to install yours?
Hi Ovic, yes I got it all installed OK. The only thing which doesn't work straight out of the box is the steering wheel volume controls which is not biggie as I can reach over to the know right next to the steering wheel anyway. I don't get any sound gaps although occasionally I get no sound at all. I find switching to the bluetooth setting and pairing again (even though already paired) fixes things.
I mostly use wireless CarPlay and it works a treat.

What should appear here? Car specific and maybe can bus related data? Maybe can setting is not correct or the head unit is not supporting your car?
What's the sellers suggestion?

You need to ask your seller. They can provide a Lincence.dat file you need to put on the root of head units file system.
