Firmware Upgrade for Older Android TV Box? - Android Stick & Console RockChip based Computers

OEM and support website androidtvbox.us are no longer extant. I can update firmware by copying a renamed "update.img" ROM to the SD card. Given the hardware specs, is there a compatible updated firmware available for this box? Thanks.

Which Android Stick Do I Have?

So, I recently aquired an Android stick, and as far as I can tell, its some sort of generic brand. I want to be able to put a custom rom on it, but am not sure which will work, or where to start. Are there any apps I can load on it to give me more detailed info? Here's the info I can pull off from the About section:
Model Number: MK908
Android Version: 4.2.2
Kernel Version: 3.0.36+rjh_V_102j2#52 (Sun Jan 9 15:16:38 CST 2013)
VEndor Softwre Version: 101j2 09-06-2013
I got it on ebay, and the other info on the ad is:
Model: MK908 RK3188 Quad Core
CPU: Rockchip RK3188 1.8Ghz Cortex A9
Brand: SUNVELL
GPU: Mali400 MP4 Quad core , 2D/ 3D/ OpenGL ES2.0/ OpenVG1.1. Video Decoding: Support [email protected]
Video Encoding: Support encoding in H.264. [email protected], [email protected]
I have seen some MK908 roms, are they generic enough that they will work? Thanks for the help.
Just as a quick follow-up, it appears that my stick is compatible with the Tronsmart MK908 rom's. I installed Finless 1.5A, and it appears everything is working, other than some random reboots that I can't nail down yet.

Anyway to root the AllWinner QUAD-CORE T3 p3 Android 6.0.1?

Hi.
Installed a few weeks ago the AllWinner unit from Umecity (Aliexpress) in my Nissan Pathfinder 2004. Looks and works great, no doubt at all (Unless the sound quality is a problem but I think it's because of my old speakers).
Everything is great except for one thing...the boot animation. I've put a lot of effort in making my home screen look clean and modern with Nova Launcher but at the moment of booting comes a very ugly Android logo animation that does not fit the style of the car at all (What I mean is that the design of this particular animation is ugly...not the android logo). I've been trying but I can't find a way to root it to change that boot animation (most of the videos I watch in YouTube show stereos equipped with menus in the settings that can access user things and extra settings but mine does not).
Have you guys got an idea of how to root it? The following list is taken from the Hardware Info App
System (Android 6.0.1)
Model: QUAD-CORE T3 p3
Manufacturer: Allwinner
Device: t3-p3
Product: t3_p3
Brand: Allwinner
Android Version: 6.0.1
API Level: 23
Build ID: MMB29M
Fingerprint: Allwinner/t3_p3/t3-p3:6.0.1/MMB29M/20170410:eng/test-keys
In the "About" Menu in settings I get this:
Kernel Version: Linux 3.10.65
OS Version: BSP 1.3.3.1 - IVT - 170410
MCU Version: 1.15.8.00-20170408-77867719T
hi did you find a way to root it? i got one and i do want to root or change the rom its so bad
There is a way over on 4pda.ru i used translate and found a zip file which you copy to sd card and unit opens update options click next and wait. i found roms and stuff but there are 3 versions of allwinner HUs do translate and take your time reading them.

Help with upgrade of YT9213AJ (full_8227L_demo) and get andriod auto working (possibly)

I have a 10.1" head unit. I wish I never would have bought it (don't buy one). After all the pain of install, I don't want to replace it.
I want to get android auto working with it. I installed the right APK and it had some dependencies ( google maps and google browser). I sideloaded all three, I cleared the problem of the dependencies with andriod auto, and it cleared the install screen.
Now android auto won't load, I think I need to upgrade the andriod and see if that helps
So here is my question: Can I update my firmware? How can I find the rom?
Can I get andriod auto to work with it?

You are correct. These units are horrible, but with a bit of tweaking, you can get them to perform reasonably well. I've made a guide on how to improve performance and user experience on YT9213AJ here.
PS - you don't need Android Auto on a true Android Head Unit. Just run the apps natively. AA requires a lot of resources and is meant for head units that can't run Android natively.
