YT9213A Head Unit Keeps Rebooting - Android Head-Units

My head unit has started to reboot every 5-10 seconds after it gets to home screen.
It's very difficult to get to any settings as there's very little time to do so.
I've tried performing an update via USB but it's impossible as it reboots during the process.
Could someone tell me what I could do in my situation?
Is there a way I could get to recovery settings?

hello
i had the same exact problem yesterday and i solved it by taking the unit out and flashing it with spf tool.
i used a laptop adapter to power up the unit and connect it to computer by a usb-c phone cable( i have a usbc port on the pc).
i followed this bellow guide to create a backup and then i flashed (in spf tool DOWNLOAD ONLY) only the userdata.img taken out an update image of an update (any update for yt9213a will do).
there is a very detailed video about hot to do a backup with spf flash. after that i improvised and kept finger crossed.

Thank you very much! After reading your first post I finally got around to removing the head-unit to see what I’m working with. Now I know what you mean by laptop charger and will look into purchasing one to connect to it. I now feel confident this can be easily resolved. Thanks again!

basically, any charger that outputs 12V CC is good. just connect the +12V to yellow+red cable and the -12V to black. This is to be sure you can power the headunit.
you then need some way of connecting it to the PC. either via a USB male to male or via a USB A to USB C.
you then need to install the drivers like in the video before and then just restore in SPF flash tool the USRDATA.IMG and if you like, also ANDROID (system.IMG)
DO NOT FLASH PRELOADER.
you have the same unit as mine so my backup should work for you.
I have made an archive with the SPF Flashtool and my backup lof android 6.0, available here:

Need help resting my head unit

Hey guys
My car head unit is from royal for hyundai elantra and it's stuck on the starting Android logo and can't get past it so can you please help me fix it? Thank you
No one has any idea on how to fix it?

It is probably in a boot loop. What did you install or do to get it in that boot loop?
If you didn't do anything, you might try to rest the unit or disconnect if from 12V and wait at least 2 hours.
And edit your first post to change the title. I assume it is "resetting" and not "resting"

1- no I didn't do anything to it. It was working perfectly and I had to switch the car off and then turned it on the boot loop issue started.
2- how do I disconnect it from 12v? Sorry but I am have zero experience when it comes to cars.
3- and you are right it's resetting but I have no idea how to edit the title of thread.

2- Get it out of the dashboard and disconnect the harness or the power plug or take the fuse out.
3- like I said. Edit the first post. It will also make the title editable.
Do you have a small reset hole in the front of your unit? If so, try to reset it with a "pointy" thing like a needle or something else.
Try what surfer63 says, because he has way more experience than most of the people about Android Head Units on this board. If all else fails try what I did after having a bootlooping HU for nearly 4 months :S
Had the same issue. The HU (with 2 USB ports) was some unknown brand called Funrover loosely based on Joying firmware. What worked for me was
- Download the suitable Joying firmware : joyingauto.com/blog/post/joying-intel-sofia-android-car-stereo-software-update
- Extract it on the PC and then copy the firmware files on to a freshly (FAT32) formatted USB drive
- Plug in the USB drive to your HU USB port (1?)
- Since your HU is already bootlooping, plug in a keyboard and use the following key combination> Alt + Print Scr + tapping i (or e, both worked for me) to get in to recover
- Ideally the recovery option will detect the plugged in USB and start reflashing the firmware so that you will be able to use the HU again.

Problem with chinese 8227l Mekede 188L 7 inch android 8.1

Hello! I recently purchased a navigation for my Golf 5 2008, it's a mekede 188l 8227L but i have an annoying problem...it's not keeping settings, if i make a change on the screen, idk, the wallpaper for example, after restarting it(removing the key from the ignition) and powering on, the settings are like defaults...even the language setting are resetting....what can i do?
And also i have a problem with the parking sensors...i have installed the rear camera, it works when i put ihe car in reverse mode but the sensors are not working, it's not displaying anything.
Thanks!
Hi, I think the wiring is wrong u use the ignition line but you must use the battery line to have continuous power. Sry for my bad English I hope u understand a little bit.
The ignition line is to power/boot up the head unit the battery line is to keep little bit power for the standby.
Regards
Aggro82
Okay, but if i connect those wires, it will drain my battery?
Connect the yellow wire to the battery 12+ constant, and the red wire to the ignition (Acc) wire
hi
i have the same problem
DO NOT connect the car radio to the battery
this is not a solution

Belsee Tesla 12.8 PX6 Android head unit stop at the boot logo

I just bought a Belsee Tesla style Android head unit with PX6 (double din, 1980*1080, 4G, 32G)
After installation for about 1 h, and I changed the boot logo to a new high resolution one. Then it did not work, stop at boot logo
The seller has send me a px6_format zip file and let me put it into a disk, plug the disk and restart the unit to recovery. But this method did not work. The unit kept at logo with no reaction.
I also tried many other method to try to enter recovery mod, but no luck.
Who can help me with this? Happy to pay for it! Thanks

Did you try use a pin to reset the unit?
Also, where did you plug in the USB with the new update PX6 zip?
Try to put it in the USB slot on the unit, not the two from the connection cords.

I've tried every method, but no luck.
I removed the core board, and post it to the seller for an exchange. Then it works again. But the radio now cannot find any channel.
Terrible head unit, strongly suggest every one do not buy this type of trash.

How to flash new type of 8227L board (HIZPO). Tips inside. Bootloader unlock, TWRP

My device is a 8227l ALPS demo but doesn't seem to be a run of the mill setup. Getting this device customized has been taking me weeks of frustrations and headaches but it's getting there. My info from my head unit is as follows:
Kernel Version: 3.18.79
HMI: TSKJ.D.Q.F.3.C02.2019.11.08.08.30
MCU: TS907.190108(h)
MEDIA: HC_V2.0.0_190923_1100_e(v1.71)
BTV: BT.19.11.06.1230(c0:81:35:20:d1:a6 -my mac address for wifi/bt)
If you are trying to connect to your 8227L, and you cannot get your computer to recognize for flashtools (or debugging), this variant board has different USB config. Most guides will say to power down and remove ALL connectors from the radio, except the 4pin USB port. In this model, you will actually connect to the 6 pin unit, and will need power to flash to the board.
For regular ADB use, while unit is powered on, plug the USB into the 6pin plug (not the 4pin).
(Update: it appears that if you change USB in the system menu, it changes the default ADB USB. For example, when on USB value 0 ADB was the 4pin, but when on 1 it was the 6pin.)
Basically to identify your ADB, plug your PC in while the unit is on. To identify if it the flashable port, power down the unit while still connected to USB. Then Power on the unit. If you get a device connection sound in your OS while the unit powers on but before the logo appears, you are using the right connection.
to use flashtools like in the guide for other 8227L units, like the amazing one by @ExtremeMOD here leave the USB connected, and the power connections. Either poke the reset button on the front of the unit, or cycle the power to the unit.
After whatever you are doing with flashtools, the unit will display a lit but black screen. This is normal. After the process is done the connection will drop (you'll hear it on your computer if using windows). Then unplug USB and either power cycle or hit the reset button.
Of course, disclaimer this may not work for your unit. Please see pictures below.
also, in need of a little help myself. This board does not appear to have testpoints, the reset button is truly a reset button only and have tried shorting the C17 resistor. I have not been able to get the device into recovery with any physical interaction to the unit, only through ADB commands. Also tried USB keyboard. Tapping screen while powering up does go to the USB flash menu ("detected"). Underside of the board has no chips or testpoint pads. Does anyone have any ideas to control the unit when in the bootloader or recovery? See update
Markings on the board come up with NO results in google or here.
XPH-806B-DSP-MB
E353226
display board: XPH-806B-10.1TFT-V01
Unlock Bootloader:
BEFORE BEGINNING ANYTHING ENSURE YOU HAVE MADE FULL BACKUPS/DUMPS/SCATTERFILE MADE
First you need to get to the "test point" on the board. It is covered by the heatsink. You can either pry off the heatsink cover, or remove the whole heatsink frame by removing the solder. I removed the whole frame, but popped the cover off first as I needed to inspect the board for other points.
Note: on this unit you do NOT have to short the test point to use SP Flashtools at all!!! This is for bootloader unlock only!
If you want to remove the cover only, get a small but strong flathead screwdriver, wedge it in between the cover and frame and press in while twisting to separate the cover. Of course be mindfull of how much pressure you push and your angles. I wound up actually removing the whole front display and ribbon cables to get to a better angle.
With the cover removed you will be able to see the test points. One is Vol down, and the other is ground.
You will need to short this pin to ground to unlock the bootloader in fastboot: See steps below. You do not have to fickle with tweezers if you don't want, It just needs to be grounded when the time comes. I used my screwdriver when I had the frame still on, making sure to touch the frame and the test point.
To test your test point: when unit is powered up and running, short this pin momentarily, volume should go down.
The process to upgrade this unit is very fickle and the steps have to be done in the proper orders.
They are: Get memory dumps, Get root, unlock bootloader, install TWRP, then have fun.
To unlock Bootloader:
-Do NOT flash TWRP yet. Factory recovery needs to be installed.
-Root device first (I was never able to get magisk to work, even after unlocking bootloader, so SuperSu procedures worked for me)
Ensure you have the proper settings in the system menu (8888 menu: Protection OFF, Install ON, OEM unlock enabled, etc) and in developer tools (unlock bootloader)
While unit is powered on and loaded:
adb devices (ensure you are connected)
adb reboot bootloader (unit should reboot to FASTBOOT mode)
fastboot devices (should show device)
fastboot oem unlock
You should see this screen:
Now short your testpoint. Just for a second. Youll get an update in command prompt and on the device.
fastboot reboot
You will get a warning:
"Orange State:
Your device cannot be trusted and will restart in 5 seconds"
Don't panic!
Let it do it's thing. It will restart a couple of times. Your computer will go a little crazy with device connects and disconnects. It will restart twice, then will automatically start to factory reset. Root may not be enabled and may have to do it again.
To verify bootloader is unlocked:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar all
A wall of text will display. At the bottom you should see:
(bootloader) warranty: no
(bootloader) unlocked: yes
(bootloader) secure: no
(bootloader) kernel: lk
(bootloader) product: 8227L_DEMO
(bootloader) version-preloader: 0.1.00
(bootloader) version: 0.5
all: Done!!
Finished. Total time: 0.115s
If unlocked is set to yes, congrats, you unlocked your bootloader.
Now you will continue to get that orange state message you can ignore it or fix it.
To fix it follow this guide
Or you can try my edited LK file attached. Flash with SP tools with your scatter file.
I was able to get TWRP installed however I used a ported ROM and the touch is inverted. After I get it fixed and this whole unit polished the way I want I will upload the files and update the instructions. I know it's all a little scattered right now but it's a work in progress.

Did you try his recovery video steps? Your unit may not allow writing without the test points shorted. Here's the video.
If there's not test points under your heatsink cover (although there should) they may be one of these. I would check for voltage before poking around.

To add, some units require to be connected to power 3 seconds after the USB cable is inserted.
Try that first before attempting the Test Point method.
In general, Hizpo units are notoriously troublesome to deal with.
Hey guys!
thanks for your quick answer's
@h1p1n3 i tried the test points you showed me but the headunit didn't respond to this method.
I also tried some other points ( mic + mic - etc.)
But I got no reaction from the headunit.
On the weekend I will try to remove the heatsink from the motherboard and look for more testpoints. Can I just easily remove it ?
@ExtremeMOD
I tried all possibility ( usb 4 pin, usb 6 pin, with powercable, without powercable and some different points to shortened) But my unit didn't response. Maybe I get another way to get new firmware to this unit without SP Flashtools.
Hizpo don't like to get flashed I think
Just for the worst case.. do you know a headunit with easy ways to flash ?
I hope to find the test points I'm looking for to fix the problem.

If you look at our signature you can see what models are supported for our SuperMOD packages and they are very common.
You are more than welcome to PM us for buying advice.
I am new here but not sure where to ask. Sorry if I am in the wrong chat.
Like to check if it is possible to update my player android version?

It is possible but it won't improve anything unless you can find a custom firmware package. If you are located in UK, we can "borrow" your head unit and create one. Otherwise, search for YT3518CH on the internet. That's your model.
Hey guys!
I removed the backplate and it seems there is no test points.
I messaged the seller maybe he has a clue where to find the test point ( or he can restore my unit )

Hello. I have a problem with my device. I have the same software as you. Unfortunately, I got a black screen and I cannot flash when I connect it, it says "usb device not recognized". I installed the drivers according to the ExtremeMod guide. I take usb 4 pin and 6pin. The effect is none. I've tried everything and nothing comes out.

How to revive an E9212B XY AUTO head unit?

Hello all,
My head unit failed to boot on the first start: I saw the Android splash screen for a few seconds, and then the device switched off.
Since I don't have access to the Android OS, I am unable to reinstall the OTA zip file from a USB stick. I don't have any backup files that I can use to flash the motherboard through its USB port.
I'm wondering if it's possible to revive the head unit in this case and, if so, how?
Many thanks in advance for your help.
