Hi all
I am the new owner of a Caska CA712 Android headunit. Pretty cool but couple of things. Firstly, Play Store is not working for me. No idea why. I have internet connection and all is good.
Other than that, the device is ok, kinda sluggish when running BT music. Interface kinda sucks and accessing different functionalities is kinda crap.
But besides that I like it.
Onto my question however. I have looked around to see if it is possible to install a different ROM but so far there is only really 1 thread about it and it is not really going anywhere.
From what I understand, Malaysks ROM has 2 different versions that work for the RK3066 and RK3188 and you use the one that is depending on your processor? Mine is dual core so from what I have read, I need the RK3188. My monitor is also 1024*600. That is all good. But has anyone bricked this device yet? Has anyone successfully loaded up the ROM with no issues? I read someone had an error half way and had to revert to the original ROM.
Does anyone have any info on rooting/installing new ROM onto this device?
Cheers guys and gals
Was messing around some more on the device there and figured out a few things.
Firstly, I get the suspicion that the firmware currently installed on the device is from a D200 android mobile. I realise of course that the build number says that its the D200 but kingo root clarified saying that the device was the D200 which it was trying to root.
Speaking of kingo root, doesn't appear to work. I have tried it several times and once it gets to 90%, it restarts the device. This may need to have a laptop introduced to it.
Turns out the Play Store worked all the time on it, not sure why it did not load before but all is good there.
Netflix works, Facebook works, everything fine apart from Google Play Music.
It opens the app but then just continues to load, then a black screen with no response from the app.
Another thing I noticed, I managed to install Kingo SuperUser app on the device (thinking it would allow me to root) and it showed a system app that is installed on the device called "RK K1102V1.1 ####" and then Chinese (hope that's not racist or anyting :S ).
Also, I tried to copy over the update.img file from iNand to card which is a 32gb sd card I put in but that did not work oddly. But someone here did mention that it was failing also because it wasn't named as "sdcard" or something along those lines.
Anyway, that's everything I managed to dig up from the device today. May take another root around (pun intended...).
Let me know what your thoughts are!

I have tried to install NewKingroot but it never loaded on giving me a failed error (nothing specific).
Thanks to wolf4.0!
This root (NewKingrootV4.82_C1) worked (sometimes not on first time - if it fails just run it again)!
Done at my HU (Caska CA712 analogue - RW6MS-33010-S1 headunit for Toyota Camry in variant 'Exclusive', made in Russian Toyota factory).
Tried some other programs before it - but they didn't works: Universal Root 1.6.9, Baidu Root.

Hello friend
I have a CASKA CA712-XL7 and it does not have the RK066 processor, has the ARM 32F101.
I took this photo inside the unit and as you can see it has that processor.
Excuse me, The forum does not permit me to link the photo, but I can send you by mail.

Sorry, but ARM 32F101 is just for MCU - not HeadUnit processor, and - as i see at aliexpress - CASKA CA712-XL7 has quad-core CPU with 1.6GHz speed (looks like an RK3066 or newer). You can try to download software like AIDA (from any apkmirror) and check by yourself.

My friend, you are right. Thank you.
¿Have you tried flashing with the Malasky ROM this unit CASKA CA712-XL7?
¿Is this reflashing convenient? ¿works?
Thanks for your reply
Did anyone manage to install new ROM on this thing? Or did root give any more functionality? Thanks
I have spent a couple of weeks searching the net, I cannot find an manufactures website (Telmu) is the brand on the box, It`s a shame as this is an half height box with a built in power button but it comes with v4.4.4 and it is very cheap to buy, I paid like £20 and i bought two of them.
Thanks for any help
John.
Hi,
I have bricked my Telmu Mini MXQ, trying to flash Android 5.0, could you please extract rom from your box?
Thanks in advance!

I thought it would be nice to distill all of the information provided in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3368080 into an easy to follow guide. This method was originally described here: https://www.drive2.ru/l/10018006/
Before you proceed, please understand the following:
I am very new to modifications like this and I'm not very knowledgeable. If you mess something up, I probably won't be able to help you.
The following guide is the steps that I took to get this working on my 2012 Ford Focus. I'm not aware of any car model-specific issues, but that doesn't mean that there aren't any.
This guide is for North American cars. If you live in a different region this will still probably work, but you will need to use the MyFord Touch system software files that correspond to your region.
What you will need:
Forscan (I used version 2.3.4 beta) from here: http://forscan.org/
An extended license for Forscan. Follow the instructions to get that here: http://forscan.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=836
An ELM327 OBD2 adapter that is compatible with Forscan. I used this one: http://www.totalcardiagnostics.com/shop/elm327-obd2-scantool
This png file: https://yadi.sk/d/i-JGQR8ZwLrLM
A USB flash drive
MyFord Touch system software version 3.8 (also known as SYNCGen2_3.08.15128.EA.10_PRODUCT). This is the latest version as of this writing. If you aren't on it, you can get the North American update from here: http://ivsu.binaries.ford.com/swparts/Gen2v38build15128updatepackageNARev2.zip. Install it if you don't already have it.
An SD card that contains the navigation maps. The latest version for North America is A8. The latest version for Europe is F6. You can use older versions if you like. Find them on eBay or somewhere similar.
These nav-related files: https://mega.nz/#!DVwQXYQD!BnXXpR9XuhE7ZQPIjM7ODM0SYepJCSawR3q1Ps2XT_s.
Got everything? Let's get started:
Plug (or pair, if you're using a Bluetooth adapter) your OBD2 interface into the OBD2 port on your car.
Put your key in the car and turn it to the On position (the first click after off. Do not put it in accessory mode, which is the second click).
Start up Forscan. You should be on the Vehicle and Interface Information screen (the icon looks like a car with an "i" in a yellow circle on top of it).
Click on the icon that looks like two power cables plugged in to each other to connect to your car. You'll see some information start to populate the log. Wait until it is completely finished.
Forscan might show you a menu with different vehicle options to pick. Pick yours from the list. In my case, it asked if my Focus was 2012 or 2013.
If at any time Forscan asks if you want to save something so you can back it up later, say yes.
Click on the icon that looks like a microchip and under the Configuration and Programming tab, select APIM and press the play icon.
You'll see a lot of fields that are labeled with numbers that start with 7D0. Click the disk icon at the bottom of the screen to save a copy of these original values.
Find 7D0-01-02 and change the first two numbers in the first field from 00 to 04. Click Write to save the change.
You'll see a warning message about the checksum being bad. Click yes to ignore it and continue with the change.
Go back to the Vehicle and Interface Information screen (the icon looks like a car with an "i" in a yellow circle on top of it) and click the unplugged power cables icon to disconnect your computer from the car. You can remove the OBD2 interface now if you like.
Put the png file that you downloaded earlier on to a USB flash drive and plug it into the USB port in your car.
In MyFord Touch, go to settings -> display, and find the setting for changing the wallpaper (I forget exactly what it's called).
Click on Add, and select your USB drive. Highlight the png file, and in the preview box, you should see a blue button that says "enable nav" or something like that. Press it, and you should see "nav enabled" appear above it.
Extract the nav-related files to your USB flash drive and plug it in to your car. It will install some things (be patient, let it finish) and when it's done, you should see an "i" icon at the bottom of your home screen.
Insert your navigation SD card into your car's SD card slot, and you should be good to go.
Hopefully you now have access to a navigation system that is every bit as sub-par but adequate as the rest of the MyFord Touch system. Congrats!
UPDATE: Someone just told me that their car wouldn't read their map card until they installed the package that I labeled optional, so it might be worth a shot if you didn't use it and you're having issues. Again, that package is specific to North America, so if you need a different region, you'll have to find it yourself unless some helpful reader wants to provide a link, and I'll post it here.
I followed these steps pretty much exactly and everything works perfect. I did a master reset and I did not install the optional update pack and I had no issues with my map card.
also worth noting to fix IPC so instead of compass it says Navigation:
720-01-01 E5C0-29BE-24D9 needs to be E5C2-29BE-24DB
update: my middle/last part of that string did not match exactly, however changing the 2 bits still fixed the cluster to say Navigation.
After a few attempts I finally have Nav on our 2013 Edge. I'm grateful for the assistance I received from a fellow member. We spoke last night and I had missed 1 step in the activation process and that was all it took. I used the png method without doing a Master reset.
Again many thanks to this site and it's members for the help.
Hi Everyone.
I have a 2013 C-Max Energi, it came with MyFordTouch but no navigation option. Navigation was only available on the Sony Radio Premium Option which I do not have. It's totally different hardware. I am in the United States if it makes any difference....
So am I reading this correctly... From what I understand, I can get Navigation working without replacing any hardware? Is that correct?

That's correct. I have MyFord Touch (not SONY) on my 2013 Escape and I was able to enable the Navigation without any hardware. Before enabling the navigation, the top right quadrant of my 8" screen was showing just "information" and the ball compass. Just follow the steps in first post in this thread to enable navigation.

Wow that's incredible - I'll be sure to read through this stuff and take a shot.
One Question, besides e-bay or the dealer ($$$), can anyone give me a hint or nudge me in the right direction and where I can 'make' the map SD Card?
Thank you! Followed your guide and worked on my 2016 Fusion SE. I used a bluetooth ELM327. Can also confirm my nav card (a6) was not detected until installing the optional files.

I cant recall where i seen it, but there is a Russian site with info on creating your own map sd card.
I was going to attempt it, but i aquired an A6 card on ebay for $38.00 W/free shipping as of Nov. 27, 2016, so for that price, a good quality blank high speed sd card cost about the same.

If one were to read the OP carefully, one might just find that site.
No more hints from me though. Even that is treading on thin ice on XDA, and I'm really not trying to get banned.
Anyone else have issues with traffic and travel links Icon disappearing?
It was there for me prior to updating to AF.
But now its not there.
Well... I guess I am off to see the Ford services dept in the morning.
I have tried to do a downgrade to v3.71 but not luck, it keeps saying bad installation files. I was doing this thinking the v3.08_AF is what made some icons on the screen disappear.
I spent 90 minutes on the phone with SiriusXM the other day trying to get the issue resolved about Sirius Traffic & Travel links icon not showing up.
They did an override and gave me a 3 month trial to traffic and travel links, just to see if my radio does support it. I know it does because I went through it all the night I got Nav to working. then I updated to v3.08_AF I got tired and went to bed, I got up the next morning to play around with it, but the icons just aren't there on my car ever since I upgraded from 3.08_AD to 3.08_AF.
All I can figure is that possibly the European software got installed, and I assume that SiriusXM is not available in Europe.
My only other thought is that some bits need to be changed in the ACM, but I must have missed it in the other various threads as to what bits need to be changed in the ACM.
If anyone knows what bits those are and if it will correct my problem, (dont really think it will since the icons were there before the AF update) I would appreciate anyone sharing that with me.

In the ACM, find 727-04-01 change 0001 0255 53DE to 0001 0155 53DD
Don't worry about recalculating the checksum if you are using forscan.
FWIW, although I have never had the issue with icons disappearing, after making the changes in the ACM, I have noticed zero difference.
spent 3 hours at the dealer and they couldn't figure it out, luckily while I was there a guy for the explorer forums messaged me. and told me that it was because I have Nav in motion enabled.
Sure enough, I disabled those bits and the SiriusXm Traffic and travel Links icons came back on.
Ill add a pic shortly to show what bits I changed.
Nav In Motion is a Region Change (telling the car it's from a region without restrictions on entering data while driving). When you enable Nav In Motion, you lose Sirius stuff. This is documented in the real Nav Activation threads.
Also, you mucked with your AsBuilt, never tried setting it back to stock when you had a problem, blamed/nagged Sirius until they gave you a free subscription, and then when that didn't work you went to the dealership to have them investigate your hacked system?
I'm surprised they didn't reset your AsBuilt data. I also hope they charged you 3 hours of labor.
The ACM bit does nothing as far as we know. No reason to change it. Nobody has reported any benefit or even any change from doing so.
Sorry for my poor quality English. I only speak French. I would like to find a link for the F4 or higher version for Canada. '' uT '' the please. rabusseau hotmail com Thanks from Quebec city!!

And to think all you had to do was search/peruse the other XDA (main Ford SYNC) thread and you would see a number of posts explaining that changing the "5553" code to "5753" (enabling "navigation in motion") has the consequence of removing all Sirius navigation goodies.

F4 is for Europe. Canada is included in the A cards (A7, for example).

Navigation "Upgrade" with SyncMyRide account?
Thanks for this guide !
Just ordered a replacement ELM327 (the one I had turned out to be a cheap Chinese knockoff that didn't support forscan)....arrives tomorrow, will attempt the upgrade this weekend.
OP - if this works out, I will be forever in your debt....
Question for all -- just got this vehicle....registered it on the Ford site, but have not registered it with SyncMyRide..... concerned about connecting the system to Ford through my phone if I go through with this upgrade..... anyone have issues with doing this in the past? Should I be concerned about Ford's ability to see my software tweaks?
Thanks!
Hi
I have a problem. I do the steps on my mondeo 2015 Europe but doesnt work. If I insert card says bad SD card. Insert valid SD card..

Is maybe bad SD card, or something else?

Hi everyone,
I have a problem with the GPS of my NO.1 D5 +, I use the smartwatch without Sim, when I use the GPS, satellites are found but does not fix them. it is normal to be so without SIM, or something is faulty?
Happy Xmas
I have the same problem!
Same problem here.
Tried to reflash firmware but nothing happens.
I've a No.1 D5+ with ddr3 ram, w613 model.
Has anyone found a solution?
I have the same problem and the same watch as m_gabriele "No.1 D5+ with ddr3 ram, w613 model."
m_gabriele what firmware version did you flash to yoru watch ? My curent version is 161124 (but according to the producent's web it is flash for the version of watch with ddr2 memmory (strange).
Any one can confirm the problems with gps? Maybe it is a bug in the firmware or maybe it is problem with damaged hardware (my watch is brand new so i can still give it back to the seller and ask for new one but it will take time )
Best regards

Hi Quaki,
I've upgraded to 161229 for ddr3 version (you can find it on NO.1 website) but nothing happened.
If you remove the watch from your wrist and open mtk engeneering tools it fixes quite fast if you're outside. The problem is when you're inside a building or with the watch on your wrist.
Antennas are not so good positioned. Maybe other watches with silicon bands performs better.
m_gabriele you are great thanks for the mtk engeneering after using this apk my phone gps wakes up and work. (i have tested gps tes and number of other apk for gps but it changes nothing until this software) Yes it's true that the signal inside teh buldings is weak but it is rather normal for gps and so small antenas as in our watches. Did you battery time improved on the 161229 ? Any upgrades in this firmware ? Now i can start develope aplications for my watch thanks again
Best regards
Hi
Got the same gps problem on my D5+, I have downloaded the MTK Enginerring apk but I cannot figure what to do in the app.
Please help anyone
Did you root your device to use MTK engineering apk? Can you share the link?
Hey there, hoping someone can help, I bought this item from Amazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00GNTSLLW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
However what I received in the mail wasn't actually the device pictured in the listing with the red sliding wifi antenna, I received the one in the picture attached.
I have had a few problems with the device, namely that it doesn't seem to want to play nicely with wifi of any description, doesn't seem to matter if it's my home broadband connection or my mobile's hotspot, main reason I bring up the hotspot is because I intend to use it in the car through the stereo for sat nav on a bigger screen than my phone, multimedia like netflix etc.
Even when I can get apps to download via the included aptoide app the connection constantly drops out and it straight out refuses to work with Google Play Store
Does anyone know where I could find a stock Android Marshmallow ROM for this device and instructions on how to install it? I've googled the problem for a while but the little results I can find seem to refer to the red slider version of the MK809IV and I don't want to risk messing anything up by doing something incorrectly, any help would be much appreciated.
