Hi dear all,
I just recieved a new android car 2din head unit, it's a MTCD version with the last firmware version 5.1.1 android+KD+04.05.2016 and I have an issue with the display.
I have an inverted colors on the display.
No way to return to real colors.
I have wiped all users settings in recovery mode.
I have tried via adb to set pm clean com.android.systemui with no success.
Can you please help me ?
Thanks
Artius
The only thing that comes to my mind is this :
Have you checked the "developer options"?. There is a option witch does invert colors. If it is not switched on you might just turn it on and see if solves your issue.
Thank you Marmalux.
I will try your solution this evening
Do you know how to activate "developer options" on this android 5.1.1 MTCD unit ?
Because when I use 126 password in the advanced option I dont have any item with developper options.
Thanks in advance
Artius
Developer options are android specific options, and is not the "factory setings" menu. In main setings menu at the end you should find the developer options.
Regarding the password for factory settings you can also try "m12345" or "m123456" or "587" (this one i'm not sure, but it is definitely begining eith 5, you can find it in the wiki of xda)

Help with Alps FF-5000 Android 10
I am also interested in this topic, I have the same unit and I would like to get the original Android 10 Firmware, since I changed it for a lower one, if someone knows how to Root this model, it could help us both.
I have a full backup of boot_1 boot_2 and emmc_user partitions. It’s for 2g-32g model 8227l
It’s fake android 10 with api27 which is 8.1 Oreo if that helps
Includes SU binary that’s not hampered from factory. Eonon had SU binary but was not functional per se.

I SOLVED MY PROBLEM WITH THIS DEVICE
It was GPS antenna. Its interference or faulty receiver loses MCU settings in memory. Once disconnected all turns normal.
Do the following :
- diconnect gps antenna
- disconnect radio antenna and then reconnect while ignition is on (gps antenna disconnected)
- turn ignition off, press button reset while turning ignition key, release reset and wait for device reseting
- adjust device settings again and enjoy the music !
+ get a new gps antenna !
:good:
FOR SOFTWARE UPDATES PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SELLER OR download from :
(I assume that yours is android 8.1 - upgraded to android 10)

Reboot problem
I have installed the one sent to me by @antonTNTand it works, but every time I turn on the unit, after 10 seconds a window appears with a countdown and two options, "cancel" or "update" and the system restarts automatically, and it starts in "usb detected" mode while the pen drive is unplugged, it is quite annoying since it delays the start of the unit every time I get in the car.

Turn your usb stick or SD card with software back in port... Then when boots up just click on update. If window not removed after update, go to main menu with password 8888 and find others menu or the one in which to set all settings for device and declick one for updates/software/firmware.
Or maybe usb or SD card with software in it is just stuck in memory and android detects update and wishes to install. If this is the case, unplug usb /SD card clicking on usb icon on lcd and then press eject and then safely remove stick.
Keep me updated will help you out.

I already found the problem, it had the .BIN files copied to the root of the internal memory of the radio, and every time it is turned on it detects them and restarts in USB reading mode. I deleted them and the problem is over
Would someone please send license.dat file, my headunit saya it's not activated after I upgraded firmware?

Well I did code 9191 which clears license code afaik. I installed fw that you uploaded, it went well but still my headunit says activation file not found. But atleast my volume button.(knob) is working now with that fw. Fm freq is restricted to under.90 mhz, but if you are quick enough, you can save bigger frequencies aswell.
My hu is alps 8227l ff-5000, bought from aliexpress, seller claimed it to be hizpo branded but there is no hizpo logo anywhere in frame.

I just bought a used car, and it has an android head unit running android 4.4.2. there is no writing of the model / maker on it.
I wish to know if it’s possible to install a better rom on it (I always install custom roms on my phones, but I never had an android on my car).
I’m also having some strange problems with it.
Problems I have with this head unit:
1) I connected my phone to it, it acts as Bluetooth speaker, but I cannot interact with the phone when I press the icons on the head unit. It will not hang up the call or dial a new call.
2) I did a factory reset and logged to a new google account, when I open the play store (V3.9.16) , I get an error “unfortunately, google play store has stopped”, how can I fix this?
3) When I put the car in reverse the back camera is shown on the display and the radio stops. Is there a way to keep the radio playing?
4) Is there an option to cast my phone screen to the head unit?
Finding Roms:
From CPU-Z I get:
Model= full aosp on Mstar cedric3 (full_mstarcedric3)
Board=unknown
Hardware=cedric
Display= 7.42" 1024*600
RAM 1G, storage 1G, android 4.2.2
Bootloader= unknown
build id full_mstarcedric3-userdebug 4.2.2 JRO03C V1.0.1.0 test-keys
kernel 3.4.5
root=yes
from settings -> about phone:
android version = 4.4.2 (different then CPU-Z tells!)
MCU= 4.3.14-11-10-456101-150712
System version=2.9.5_20150610
I google searched to try and find more info about this device/ rom but could not find any.
Any help will be very welcome.
Hello,
It happened to me when I updated my system, after system updating my air conditioner app stop working my head unit system is Quad core T3 p1 android 9, I solved the problem, and I would like to share the solution if someone facing same problem.
The solution is to go to settings, car settings, extra settings ( password 123456 ) then select car model or something related to model, then you will be getting into car selecting menu ( pic is attached for reference ).
Please be careful when choosing the car model, it should be exactly the same as yours.after that you will get an APK downloading, also MCU update, system will be restarted automatically after the update is complete, done
notice: your head unit should be connected to WiFi for the MCU updating process.
Regards,,
