Guys I have a AL-C0241 and I just installed Malaysk's firmware.
I stupidly did not check my MCU type before hand, thinking that I would keep the existing MCU if I only updated the image.
Everything seemed to install fine, but when I look in the about tablet section, the first few lines are blank, including the MCU
And now I am getting no sound from the radio. Everything else including the wifi and GPS seems to be working OK, but no sound is a problem.
Can anyone tell me the original MCU code of the AL-C0241 ? This is the autopumpkin 7 inch with no buttons on it, just a flat screen.

you can see my entries on the wiki, it's there

So I think mine is bricked now.
After loading Malaysk 3188/1024 firmware I no longer have:
*sound
*gps
*radio
Still working
*wifi
Any idea what I should do to try and fix it? I tried a few things with the reset button but was unable to achieve factory reset. Should I start trying some of the available MCUs?

Ask Pumpkin to send you an image file of your MCU and Firmware. I just send them an email requesting the same for my unit. I told them that I wanted to back it up and can't unless I am rooted.
Let's see what happens.

Worth a try, I will do that.
Would it be possible to get an image of the stock SD card and use that to revert to factory? perhaps nleitao can take a copy of his if he still has access to the insides of his unit?
I'm pretty annoyed with myself, hopefully I don't have to buy another!

I have been exchanging some emails with them, because I was going to do what you did, but only after having the factory image... This is what I got:
Email said:
Hello Nuno,
Thanks for your email.
We attached the user manual for the AL-C0241,please check
And about the newer firmware and mcu, once we get it, we would release it on our official support www.news.autopumpkin.com
Thanks for your patience.
Have a nice day.
Kind regards,
Colin

Today I'll reply asking the most recent they have.
I would gladly do image backups if someone explains me how to do it without root...
thanks

Thank you so much! downloading now, will post results!
---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:08 PM ----------
Just found a couple of youtube videos, from the official pumpkin channel "pumpkin car stereo support" where they show a software and MCU update for the AL-C0241 !
No download link however! Search AL-C0241 on you tube if interested.
Also checked their blog, no update there
edit: Can't test their firmware because my USBs no longer work, along with most of my hardware.
Its not looking good for me :| Maybe I can find a way to get them working on Malaysk's rom but it's a bit of a catch 22. I can get internet access on the device, however, so all hope is not lost.

I opened my device and that slot is empty. I thought that was for a sim card to enable 3g?
I will put the update.img file on a new sd card and try it tonight, I will post results in approximately 8 hours time
Thanks for the help

Nop, it's an SD card slot

Sorry guys I have no results as yet, got a bit busy last night
I have to rig up a molex connector so I can power the device up while im inside my house, it should be as simple as connecting the yellow 12v rail and the earth to the harness, so hopefully I will be able to inform you of results before long
Thanks for the support

Fixed!
Thanks for all the help
I used the ROM posted earlier in this thread and the internal SDslot and I eventually got everything working again, I much preferred Malaysk's ROM but couldn't manage to get the MCU updated until after I did the ROM update.
I now have alex v1.1.5 however, I used to have v1.1.7, so that's kinda annoying but I can't see the difference right now anyway. I will write to auto pumpkin and try to get the latest image.
I was also not able to get it to power up using my computer power supply. I connected the 12v to the 12v and the earth to the earth but it wouldn't fire up, super annoying.
Now I am just going to enjoy using it for a while

I'm really glad you fixed it up!
You should had connect the red and the yellow to the 12v...
My apologies to the OP for the kind of hijack but I believe this is the thread with most info for this radio.
I'm having problems with my radio. The screen seems to have a bad contact somewhere, making it complete useless to try to work with it. The odd thing is it never happens in the first 20 minutes ater a cold start. Does someone have an idea what is happening here?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMCrWkFdd0I
Second problem. I'm completely unable to pair the radio's Bluetooth with whatever devices. I just cant start the pairing process from the radio side.

That screen flicker doesn't look good Is your warranty void due to opening the device? Could be a hardware fault.
As for the bluetooth pairing, I think mine just worked the first time and I haven't looked at it since. I will have another look later and see if mine is doing the same thing

Today I received this answer from them
Support Email said:
Thanks for your feedback.
We're so sorry for the inconvenience and trouble.
1) Firstly sorry for my wrong info about the instruction before,for this new Android product, currently it has no searching function in the built-in Bluetooth. About dropping the built-in Bluetooth app to pair the Bluetooth OBDII with other Bluetooth app, sorry we did not test it before and not sure the operation. However, this product can directly pair the the Wifi OBDII which is tested by us
2) Regarding this issue, frankly we didn't meet it before, if you're good at electronic, it's ok to open the radio by removing screws around the frame then check out the inside connection and we would still promise the warranty.
If we can be of any assistance,please feel free to tell us,thank you!
Best regards,
Colin

So two things I learned. The crappy Bluetooth App can't connect to other devices. The second is I still have warranty after open the cover and check the internal cables.
Yeah, I suspect hardware fault. It only start happening after 20, 25 minutes after power up. something heats up and puff...

[Q] Pumpkin KD-C0224

Hello
Sorry for this but I am at wits end trying to figure out what is going on with my android head unit -
firstly it wouldn't load up at then then now I have to load it up in recovery mode to even see the screen, i attempt to install the image file which I was told to download and put on an empty micro SD card but this is what displays when i attempt to do what they describe, they try to be helpful at pumpkin but they tell me the same things over and over again, I know I'm not a developer but I'm certainly not a vegetable.
please see below for the errors i get can anyone make any sense as to why I'm getting these and how to find a fix for it?
It would be much appreciated greatly by me.
This is the link which i was told to download (news.autopumpkin.com/how-to-upgrade-your-android-head-unit-from-4-2-to-4-4-kitkat/)
(the first one I cant post links)
I have never been able to see the unit actually working so do i need to use something different rather than 'upgrade'?
Regards,
Chris E
I'd be concerned about the "Parse error" which is shown. Maybe a bad download? Have you tried downloading with a different browser?
You can also try Malyask's firmware. You need the 800x480, RK3066 version. I'd suggest the newest, from July 7th.
But, if it's never worked, maybe there's a hardware issue which installing firmware won't fix.

Just about to try with a different browser and different machine so hopefully that'll fix it, i will let you know in due course.
UPDATE: different browser still no luck so I will try Malyasks version
For what I see on the 2nd picture, it seems like the MCU is not getting installed. Since you already tried downloadin it on a different browser, ty using a different SD card and maybe do a checksum to compare the file on your PC and the file on the SD after you copy it. 99% of the times I've had probelms like this on phones (havent had them on the radio yet) it's been an error while copying.
UPDATE
Thank you for your help guys.
But I have discovered by it wasn't working - it was a silly error on my behalf it was fault in my wiring - I didn't think it would be anything to do with the wiring as I didn't think it would even power up if that was the case but it is if anyone else has this problem this is the cause -
The ignition wire coming from the stereo (normally red) doesn't have any power going to it.
(I wired the ignition wire to ground - thus no power going to it) :silly:
If anyone is unsure (as I was) - in a Vauxhall/Opel Corsa the wires are:
Black - Ground
Brown - Live
Good to hear you got it working and you posted the fix here in case it happens to somebody else.
Cheers!

OWNICE K6 SC9853i

It is almost a great head unit wit dsp and optical out, but have some problems:
- the music app is terrible, first of all the folders/track are showed not in alphabetical order
- the home screen cannot be changed
How could be replaced the stock music app, with similar music user friendly/modded music app like in Hal9k's px5 rom have?
How could it be rooted?
Thanks if anybody could help...
Here's everything you wanted to know but were afraid to ask (Open it with chrome and you should get the translation). Did you take any pictures of the insides of your HU I'm curious to see how they added a toslink to it.

Ownice K6 SC9853
Hi! i bought an Ownice K6 SC9853 media but I completely stopped it, the image is normal but the interface is virtually inverted, I can't handle it normally. i want a hard reset but it won't restart, how is a total reboot possible?
Thanks!
Como podré reset en modo recovery para revivirlo se me a quedado frizado y no pasa del logo de Android
Help me please. With the Ownice K6 radio tape recorder, the device worked fine for 1.5 years, then it started. The problem is rebooted every minute and during the reboot the radio works and the volume is adjusted. Then a minute of normal work again reboots and so on in a circle.
What did I do for the solution:
1. flashed it with my native firmware. (which I received from the seller immediately after purchase)
2. I was flashing it with firmware from the seller SysSoftware_C960_K6_20200721.153132_OLS1 (I turned strangely after a year and a half and he sent a pistol the next day)
3. I was flashing the MCU) I also got it from him without any questions)
4. Installed a fan for cooling.
5. Disconnect everything from the radio except the power supply.
the result is the same reboot every minute.
can anyone come across a similar one or knows where to find a discussion of a similar problem.

nothing helped the result is the same every minute reboot. I do not know what to do. what is the minimum voltage required for the device to work? I get 11.58v on my device, I think it's not enough.

No, it's not enough, maybe you ave problems of battery. On mine, after U played about 3 hours with the HU in the car without start the engine, it beniged to shut down, I started and it shut down; after I understood the the battery was discharged.
Without 12,5 volts or more, it didn't work(and it's normal).

Atoto A6 ( Full Root )

It's been awhile since I was on here and left some people hanging. Sorry bout that...
This is only for version A62721P ( without Buttons )
ATOTO AICE OS 9.6
IF you have a different model or version upload me your ( file_contexts, SEC_VER.txt, and scatter.txt ) files from the original update file you used when you updated. With model number
Edit: Also add ( recovery-from-boot.p, config.ini, and build.prop ) from the system folder.
Of course,
Credits to chainfire for his SuperUser app included in my zips..
Just rename to update.zip put on the root of your sd card, just like you would any other update.zip OS file.. Enjoy!!!
####Read####
Been wanting to root my ATOTO A6 with buttons on bottom since I got it early 2021. Not sure what firmware is on it, but I believe it has the AICE OS 9.6, I'll have to double check. I'm assuming your method will work with this as well? If so, chances of bricking it?
I just bought an Atoto A6 Karkit and the radio has great resolution and seems well built but you cannot access anything. The only thing that asks for a password is Developer Options and I’ve found a way around that. My biggest issue is not being able to access notifications as I like to get on FCC and customize my Home Screen. Any help?

I just wanna be able to install a modded apk of Pandora and I can't because the factory installed original one. Even when you uninstall it, and try to install another version it says it's already installed. Ugh. I need root to remove any remanence of the original APK of Pandora that is installed.

Yes, I’m frustrated with this radio for sure. I am about half afraid to try and root it. I kick myself for leaving my Xtrons Headunit in car I just sold. That was the only Headunit I’ve truly been 100% happy with. This Atoto has great resolution and is pretty good quality but I like to customize my UI and they have made it almost impossible.
I should have done my homework a bit before I went with Atoto.

Mine has buttons so I am pretty much stuck with it as Xtrons is not on Amazon USA and our postal service is terrible. It takes longer to get here once unit hits states than it does for radio to get from Hong Kong to here.

Hey xDustin, does album covers show up for you besides widgets? I assume only way around it is to root but my laptop will

A6Y2710SB Tried it, it factory reset my headset but unable to verify root with Root checker app.
NEVERMIND!!! I done it again, and it worked this time!!! Thanks so much!!
If you could make one for the A62721PB, that would be awesome.

BMW E90 - CCC - with iDrive controller - Android 11 Head Unit 8GB RAM / 64GB ROM

Hello All,
I have an Android 11 head unit with 8GB RAM and 64GB ROM and I'd like to know if I find and firmware update for this. (I've attached some pictures)
As I read on the forum on some head units with an update the iDrive controller can be used in other apps. At this moment I only can use the iDrive controller on the original launcher. I tried with other launcher and it didn't work.
Could someone know what can I do?
Thanks,

I saw that topic, but I think there is an old version. Mine MCU, I think, is from 22.05.18, correct?

Thank you.
Also I have an issue when trying to open CPU-Z. The app is closing without any error.

There is no need to use CPU-Z. What is the reason for you to get that running?

That does not really help. Aida is good for phone and tablet, CPU-Z if it runs... well...
I would install "Fake Device Test" and you would get all the needed information.

At least he should know.

This is normal... If you live in EUR, the time difference to China is 6hrs. So if you wake up in the morning, they are near to go home.

...but you are not the one and only customer he has to care of. Be lucky that he answers. There are others which do not answer at all after the unit has arrived.
Idrive started to work. No more issues. All works flawless

Hikity Android Head Unit

Hey guys. My partner has just purchased a second hand Hikity. I have installed it, factory reset it then connected it to my phones hot-spot to update all the apps.
The only problem we're having now is the damn thing ain't turning off when the ignition is off and I cannot find the canbus protocol for a Citroën Xsara Picasso.
I updated the firmware, everything is now in chinese and none of the google apps now work. Does anyone have the english firmware these things originally came with.
According to the information on the System Info section:
Model: F9212B
XY Auto: 7.3.7 (X2)
MCU 4.2 (X2)
CAN Pro: 9.0.2
Android 10
Posting here to see if anyone can help with these issues.

Any firmware update resets all settings and you need to set it first to your language in the settings.
Then you need to connect your unit again with the google account before using them.

When I updated the firmware, it added several chinese apps and the google apps do not work at all even after I set the language to english.

It's a second hand aftermarket stereo, bought through Facebook. He wouldn't know anything apart from installing it in to the vehicle.

Seems to be a quite special issue on your system.
May be wait for someone who is familiar with your special device.
In the mean time, you should have a look at this thread. May be you find something in there.
By the way: The not turning off issue is related to wrong installation. You need to check clamp 15 and clamp 30.
If you don´t have the right CAN-box you even won´t be able to get anything from the car.

It doesn't have a CAN-box, it does the CAN bus straight through the unit. What is clamp 15 and clamp 30?

I search the forum but nobody seems to have the stock firmware for my model of Android unit as its version is 7.3.7, I cannot downgrade it to a previous version.
Right OK. Finally got the correct firmware after many hours of using Google translate. It works to a certain degree but the physical buttons on the unit do not work at all. Any ideas on how I get them to work again.

There should be a page in the settings of the unit where you can set the physical buttons. Mostly hidden behind a special pin. You may ask in the related threads for your unit if you don´t know the pin already.
I've got in to that setting but when holding the correct buttons down, I keep getting study failed error.

I think you don´t have the right firmware for your unit then.
Then I'm stumped. I can get it in to recovery mode but with no physical unit buttons and the USB keyboard not being recognised I am unable to factory reset it completely. I'm struggling to locate the original Xyauto stock firmware it came with.
what password do you used for the factory settings?
