Hi guys
Please let me know if this has already been discussed!
I have an unbranded xxx.ebay.co.uk/itm/8-Android-Car-GPS-for-Mitsubishi-Lancer-Fortis-Ispira-Sat-Nav-Multimedia-DVD-/221808300538?hash=item33a4ce11fa. Now i know there has been a lot of discussions regarding firmware for these on this forum. But i have seen no mention of this particular unit. So here's my question;
Do anyone here know about a firmware update for this unit, mine is running stock (as stock as these units get) 4.0.3. I'm having issues with not being able to delete and old account from google play. So just being able to reflash with the stock os would be nice.
Also do anyone here have any experience with this unit, would be nice to know if it's worth upgrading my speakers?
(Check the link for pictures of it on ebay, i'm not near my car atm. Replace the xxx with www, since this forum won't allow me to post urls)

Hey guys,
I've gone through several of the large Android headunit threads to try and identify the one I have, but I haven't been able to tell which one it is.
This is the one I bought. It looks physically similar to the carjoying one
Ebay item 201395440710
Sorry, I'm unable to post pics as per the forum rules until 10 posts.
It's one of the Huifei. The only way to tell the exact huifei is to look in the settings window of the unit itself.
Thanks, I got a bit anxious and haven't received it yet. Still going through the many pages on these head units
So I got my HU, but my MCU version isn't like what I have seen in the main thread. It is is all numeric - MCU Version - 4.3.13-1.10-610101-150413
I'd like to try out one of the custom images, but not sure which one would work with this.
any conclusion?
Hi guys,
I am quite new to the whole world of Android head-units. I've found a unit that fits my car and before I buy it I was just wondering if you guys could help me out a bit.
The unit is: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Android-4...RE-/281909711323?_trksid=p2141725.m3641.l6368
It states that it is a RK3088 unit, although it must be RK3166 if it's quad-core, right?
https://youtu.be/DK4O1XGn0nM?t=3m13s - looking at the description it seems it's a HuiFei type MCU MX.
I note that the XDA repository doesn't include firmware updates for this MCU - does this mean that I won't ever be able to update the firmware? Would the custom ones (Masaryk?) work on this MCU?
I've also read that the microphone is pants, which is why every seller is including some-kind of an external one, in this case a bluetooth one. How does a microphone like that get powered? Is it a difficult to get power to it when installing?
My apologies if this is the wrong forum.
Hello friend,
This is Nicole from Kaigele,which is a 9 years proffesional car dvd player factory.
Thank you for your attention to our Huifei units.But sorry to tell you that,i have checked your attached link,it's not from our factory.
Sorry i can not help you more.
Have a nice day!
Best regards
Nicole
I cannot for the life of me figure out what type of head unit this is or it's manufacturer. In MCU version it says: 2018.05.29 18:59:52 KET_[R76DK3]__26_C26D_STM32_CAN(All)_AMP
Under build number I see px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5.170623.007 eng.bsp.20181228.122841 test-keys
I am also wondering if this would be compatible with say Hal9k's ROM's as the current ROM is rather sluggish (despite having 4GB RAM and 64GB ROM). Any help would be amazing and if someone has any info on cross-compatibility with other MCU's that would also be cool. If not, I will be getting an MCU from manufacturer for backup and just try to flash other MCU's. Really wish I had bought a different HU now as this one seems like it's quite out of the ordinary. Only info I could find was on the russian 4pda forum and some french forum. Unfortunately I don't speak Russian and my French is rather bad, at best
:laugh:
Like I said, any help is appreciated. I've attached pictures from my "About machine" page but I've also written it here in plain text in case there are others searching for the same thing.
I would also like to add that my seller (on aliexpress) claims that this is a MTCE unit, yet it doesn't say MTCE anywhere in the MCU version. He also claims the manufacturer is AT (which I've never heard of and can't really find any information).
Like I said before, any info is appreciated.
Edit: This might be similar? https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...d-units/unable-to-identify-mcu-version-t39271
i have same problem. same mcu of mine, What did you end up doing?
I get one update today, i try it and later i will tell you
any update on this?
Any update? I don't have the same one, but I bought something that was supposed to be a MTCE device but isn't!
I am wondering if there's a way to tell if I took it apart, I can easily remove mine in my vehicle and if it would help I could take it apart but I would need to know what to look for to tell what type of head unit it is since the firmware / system info doesn't tell us anything.
I am having the same problems. I have the same hu and there is nothing. I contacted the vendor and they said that they will work with me but nothing from them so far.
Hello people
Last year (2019) I purchased a Pioneer AVIC-Z710DAB head unit for my car. After realizing that the maps on the GPS are very old and awfully expensive to update, I really want to root the device and install an Android- or Linux based custom rom. Obviously I do not want to install a custom rom that does not provide equal functionality to the Pioneer system, but I don't want to keep the Pioneer system any longer as the GPS functionality is useless with old maps and the also old available updated maps are $150. I realize that the rooting and installation of a new system will require some time / work, but this does not matter a long as it's possible to do it!
Does anyone know if there is such a thing as custom roms that support functionality such as Bluetooth mobile devices, GPS, DVD / CD / MP3 discs, DAB+ and rear view camera etc?
Where can I find this rom and installation instructions? I have searched online for hours, but so far I have only found one page containing broken links.
As I am a new member on this forum, I cannot share this link in this post. But the page title is "The AVIC development MOD", from around 2016 and all links are broken / not working.
Any information is highly appreciated!
Best regards,
The norwegian guy
You won´t find anything...
Custom ROM will not be shared in here. There is no community for it.
Nearly all Pioneer head units have a proprietary OS. It seems to be android based.
May be this helps: http://bestandroidtoroot.com/post/pioneer-car-navigation-avic-z710dab-jupiter

Hello. Still have not tried the link I was given by rigattoni, but I was wondering if anyone has any update on this?
I am now considering to buy a new head unit with Android OS. but this seems like a risk. Most of the ones I have seen are to me previously unknown Chinese brands and I do not trust any Pioneer head units with Android OS to work with Google maps and/or Waze amongst other apps!
- Is there any way to replace the OS of a Pioneer unit with Android OS with working standard Android apps and Google Play?
- If not; Are the Chinese head units with Android OS any good? Example brands are Erisin and Eonon, which seem to come with Android 10.
Thank you in advance!
Hi, have y'all seen this info/forum yet? It refers to information regarding development for the Pioneer head unit(s) OP was asking about. Edit: Going back over, I see OP specifically mentions this forum. Well thank you

Hi All, first post,
1. I did a search on google and XDA for key info I obtained from the unit, no luck.
2. The unit resembles this unit - but mine is 10.1 Inch but the interface and apps are basically identical to this unit.
- https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/TS18-9inch-4G-2din-Car-Radio_1600324427529.html
3. Also, unit is Android 10, which is quite old, if upgradeable, would it make a difference to the look and feel?
I tried using the supplier / installer but he is not forthcoming with info, not sure why so hoping someone can point me in the direction, the unit has a mold that fits my Toyota Rav4 2017.
The goal is, to find out how to update the bluetooth / phone app (it sucks) as a starting point.
finally, here are some pics of the unit pre-install and hardware info in settings.
Thanks in advance

Well... don´t even think that you would be able to upgrade Android to a newer one. It´s already the current actual Android version.
You really should blame the vendor that BT is a mess. That is nothing the forum can help with. Your MCU is special for Toyota and you won´t find a matching update for your special unit.
Go back to the seller and ask for an update otherwise you open a dispute on Alibaba. This is the one and only way to get them start working.
Sorry, but these special units with this MCU, that is not easy going.

Thanks Rigattoni,

Thanks for the info!!
