I had this unit for some 2, 3 weeks now, and while it worked great initially, all of a sudden the radio app started acting up.
It starts with some garbage displayed (e.g. 'jV!fxcj') instead of radio station name, and it is not responsive at all. If I manage to get to home screen or to anywhere else, it will just pop back up to the front, and it keeps happening constantly, Sometimes, after doing who knows what, I manage to kill it, and I can use the rest of the head unit, but that happens rarely. I also tried going to the settings -> apps, and killing the app from there, but it doesn't help.
I hard reset the unit, and the radio worked fine for about five minutes, and then it started happening again. Is there a way to at least disable the Radio app somehow, so the unit is usable in some capacity?
I have exactly the same issue on my TR771L. I got an MCU update link to load onto an SD card but haven't been able to get it to install on the unit.
The looping is really annoying especially at night.
EDIT:
Android version 8.1.0
MCU version T8.3.19-36-10-E53201-180726
System version V9.3.1_2018082.102205_MLT5
I had that problem too and did an firmware update and it seems to be ok now
This might be a stupid question, but where do you get the firmware update from? Is there a custom ROM to be installed on it as well?
I was always confused by many similar but different headunits, and was never sure if something would work on mine or not. Is it PX5? Is it MTCE? Is it none of these? Sigh.
On a positive note, it seems to work better now. I uninstalled the automate car dashboard and know it happens rarely if ever, and even when it does, a hard reset with a pen solves it.
Well, I contacted xtrons with a request for the update file, and they provided a link - https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjrY0uqbW_kBk36dRnJD4d_aaej8
This is a system update file, and after I went through the versions I have are:
Android version 8.1.0
MCU version T8.3.19-36-10-E53201-180502
System version V9.3.1_20181012.103419_MLT5

You need to extract the files from the RAR file, put them on the SD card or USB, connect it to the head unit, go to Settings -> Car settings and then scroll down and choose MCU update or System update. Depending on the file you got, it should detect the update files and ask you if you want to reset the sd card/usb (I choose no just to be safe) and it took a bit of time to update, and the start loading animation (xtrons) took a bit more time than usual, so don't worry about it.

I recently bought a generic android head unit from Ali Express. It actually works well but I really need to connect it to a CAN bus and write some additional software (background: I want to replace the factory unit in a Nissan Leaf, so it needs to display some vehicle info, show the heater settings and set up the charge timer). I have experience in Android app development and embedded Linux, but I'm still a 'noob' when it comes to Android hacking (root access etc).
I'm pretty sure I will need root access to do what I want. It has 'CAN tx / rx' pins on the back, and I am pretty sure they are wired to one of the serial interfaces internally (I will need an adapter to convert UART to CAN as well). I played around with an app to access the serial ports (i.e. ttyxxx) but I didn't have permission to use many of them - probably the ones I wanted!
I don't want to re-write the existing music player, amp control and radio; I just want to add a new app to carry out my vehicle-specific functions.
I tried the root process given here but it didn't work.
Here are the device details:
Model: S07
MCU Version: MTCB-HA-V2.60
Android Version: 4.4.4_01062015
Kernel Version: 3.0.36+ [email protected] #278
CPU: ARM7 1.6G x 2
CPU/SOC is an RK3066 on a modular board. Pictures attached.
It doesn't have any physical buttons except reset - there are touch sensitive buttons for power, back and volume. It has one SD card slot for map data and no USB on the front (several on the back).
I haven't figured out how to get to the recovery console, or connect it to a PC via USB.
Any suggestions for how to root? Or get to recovery console?
Anyone else with a similar device?
Check out the Huefi thread above. It has everything you need. first page covers root. basically, download the rom you want, put it on the GPS SD card, insert it, and wait for it to ask you to update. Once you do that, it will be rooted. there is no other way to root it if it has 4.4.4. DO NOT INSTALL A MCU file for it unless it is for HA devices. HA is the manufacture of the unit, and if you use an MCU file for a different device, you run the risk of loosing the physical buttons on the unit. This can be repaired by going into recovery and flashing the HA MCU, but that is a lot of extra work
Hi! Thanks for your reply.
I was wary about installing a new image because I don't want to lose the existing radio app and amplifier controls (which are specific to the device rather than the RK3066 SOC module, if I have understood the structure correctly).
* Would a new image replace these apps, or are they actually in the MCU firmware anyway?
* Can I back up my current image first? I looked at some backup tools, but they all needed root access... =Catch 22.
Sorry for noob questions... I'm getting the hang of Linux but still new to messing with Android at a low level. I'd love to play around with a stripped Ubuntu or similar on the device, but I don't want to have to write my own software for the radio parts - at least not yet.
BTW do you know how the bootloader system works? Is it possible to boot from SD card or USB (therefore allowing some other OS to be booted without replacing the onboard image)?

I cant help with the bootloader issues, but I can with some of the others:
-Radio and Amplifier apps are the same on all units, or should I say is compatible across all units. If you were to go into the settings, then factory settings and enter 126 as the password, you can see all the settings you need to make sure your unit functions after upgrading your rom image.
-You can not back up your factory image. its not possible. You can always reach out to your seller and ask them if they will send you a copy of the factory firmware.

SUCCESS! I just downloaded and installed the latest image from Malaysk (I think?) and it looks like it is working well! Radio, music player and amplifier work, and I have root access. Woo! So far so good... Thanks!

Hi, I also didn't know the screen resolution, and it is not mentioned on the "About" screen.
In the settings menus, I found some options for recording a video of the display (I don't know why!) and the maximum resolution there was 1024 x 600. I figured that you wouldn't bother to record at higher res than the screen had, so the resolution must be 1024x600. This seemed to work!
My stereo has absolutely NO branding on it anywhere so I don't know whether it's a clone of Huifei or something else, but it worked with the "Malaysk" firmware, which I downloaded from the Huifie file repository (linked from here), under firmware->Malaysk ROM->Malaysk DualCore RK3066).
I picked the bottom one (12th Jun 15, 1024x600 with different launcher).

I just installed the same unit. Only complaints are streaming music via Bluetooth only works if you open up the Bluetooth app (probably because android doesn't act as a Bluetooth sink). The other issue is, I cannot seem to change the brightness of the screen...its a touch too dim for daylight (I have a convertible) and a bit too bright for nighttime.
Glad to see you got a custom rom working.

Do I burn the update.img file to the sd card or do I simply copy it? And does it have to be my gps sd card or can it be a spare blank one?

Doesn't appear to be an img file in the context of "burn it" so I think that answers that question (just copy it) The head unit doesn't seem to do anything when I drop it in though (either with it on when I insert it or with it already inserted during a reset). Any thoughts?

The file should be "update.zip". I used a new SD card - try formatting one with FAT32.
You just copy it to the card and insert it - I think the stock Android image automatically checks for update files that look like this, and loads them. This process worked OK for me - if not then hopefully someone here knows more about the update process than me.
HI !

I think the file is "update.img" not "update.zip". Anyway I have not figured out how to get to the boot loader on mine, and I never got any recovery console. Sorry I am too much of a beginner myself to suggest anything.

Instead of flashing a new image, go to the factory settings and type in *#hct#root#
This should give you root, no need to flash a new image

Bonjour.
If you would like more than root and you're still having trouble getting into recovery with your Hot Audio RK3066 1024x600 2 DIN Head Unit, the steps below have worked for me when the system does not automatically detect the mcu or update.img.
*** Prior to flashing any OEM or Custom ROM firmware, I recommend using a backup app like Titanium to save all your existing apps and data to your external micro sd card or usb memory stick.
1) Install Quick Boot or a similar apk from the play store.
2) Attach a wireless usb or usb keyboard and confirm it is working as intended. I use a Lenovo N5902 but most usb or wireless usb keyboards should work for this task.
3) Make sure you have the update and or mcu image file on your gps micro sd card or an attached usb memory stick (not the zip file).
4) Open Quick Boot, select recovery, and the system will shut down and boot into recovery.
5) Use your usb keyboard to scroll or arrow down to the update option with correct img file location, then press enter to execute the mcu or android firmware update or both.
6) After you update the android firmware, it is highly recommended that you go into the Settings > Backup & Reset, and select reset to factory and check the box to delete all data from the internal sd card. This reset to factory and internal sd card wipe should give your updated android system a clean start and help avoid system issues due to left over data from the previous firmware.
7) Delete the mcu and or update image from your external micro sd card. Done.
Hope this helps...
Best to all,

Why don't you just flash Malaysk's ROM? It's easier and the ROM is much smoother than stock.

By your username I assume you're brazilian, right?
Where did you buy your unit?
This night I've managed to talk to a Caska sales director for LATAM and he said that they cannot give the stock ROM for security reasons. I still have problems with the clock and the startup also (blank screen). They say their engineering team is working on fixing that issue, but China has a holiday that starts today (Oct 1st.) and only ends Oct 7th. So I'll only have an answer after that day.
Maybe you can talk to your seller and see if he gives any support (I bought mine at www.rcmultimidias.com.br).
Sure I am, you are right.
I bought mine from aliexpress. I found a update.img file in some folder, but I'm not sure if it is the full image. I opened that image in a linux box and looks like we have everything, there some ext4 images, boot image and a lot of other files, but I'm not 100% sure about it. May be somebody with experience could verify that.
Another annoying thing is the music and video apps not reading files from sdcard, they only read USB and inand. I've modified the Music app to point it to the correct path, but I couldn't install it back to the unit (It fails to install without any error). At least if I could reassign music and video buttons to another app, that would be ok (VLC is working fine, just need to adjust volume).

Normally you have to boot in recovery mode, something that I still don't know how to do for this unit, and then use that update.img to restore. See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2660662, there some possible procedures there and may be one of them work for the caska.
How big is the update.img file they sent to you?

Here I posted a video with all the problems I'm experiencing with this unit. The main problem is that I cannot setup the right time, so all Android apps are useless (they require a secure connection to their servers and this is only allowed with a valid certificate [that needs the correct date]).
I was trying to root my unit so that I could use ClockSync to fix the time every 30 seconds (it resets after 1 minute), but had no success on that.

So, where did you managed to talk to Caska? I've tried contact with Caska Brasil with no success (they say they do not offer support for Android units), and Caska Global didn't give any answer ([email protected]).
I've downloaded your update.img, but it's for CA712 and my unit is a CA380-XLA, I'm afraid to brick it. Have you tried entering recovery mode pressing reset and power buttons the same time?

I can reassign the screen buttons in my unit. In the settings, go to the last menu: "Shortcuts". Not sure if there's a way to reassign the physical buttons without modifying the original ROM.

I'm newbie as well, but I know that you must need possible clue, since you brick your unit. I'm afraid to point you to the wrong direction, but I believe it deserves to try. I saw some threads discussing about the bootloader and connect via USB. Looks like to have to install the usb driver for the rock chip (RK3066, since it is dual core and there is a file RK3066Loader_uboot_upgrade2_4_16gok.bin in the update.img file). I don't have more details on that, but may dig deeper.

I've tried pluggin a USB to the unit and connecting it to my PC with no success, no devices are recognized. I have developer mode active but no options to enable USB Debugging.
So, I was able to extract all APKs from the file danylam hosted, and it's quite different from my unit: I have only one "Settings" menu, and in my unit some essential apps weren't installed (like HBS_Carkit_ChangeLogoUtil.apk and HBS_Carkit_SyncGPSTime.apk). I've installed them and solved one of my problems: car starting with a GMC logo. But the SyncGPSTime.apk isn't being called by any applications, so it's not starting (and I cannot start from itself).
Then I tried installing the Settings.apk that came with the ROM and ended up with a non functional setup menu, unfortunately. Since in that version most settings are changed from the "Android Settings", and I couldn't install that apk (it shows me an unknown error), I've lost some essential menus.

Looks like to have to install the usb driver for the rock chip (RK3066, since it is dual core and there is a file RK3066Loader_uboot_upgrade2_4_16gok.bin in the update.img file). I don't have more details on that, but may dig deeper.

Can you tell me how to extract this bin file from the image?
Thanks

I've downloaded your update.img, but it's for CA712 and my unit is a CA380-XLA, I'm afraid to brick it. Have you tried entering recovery mode pressing reset and power buttons the same time?

I found the update.img in my CA712 with a simple search for update.img. I used the file browser and and did the search from / device.

This is the linux tool to open the image http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257331
command:
Code:
./imgrepackerrk update.img
It creates a update.img.dump folder and the bin file should be in the update.img.dump/Image
Boot.img is compressed and if you want to see content do this:
Code:
mkdir boot
cd boot
gzip -cd ../boot.img | cpio -i -

Tried searching mine but couldn't find any *.img files. But at least I've managed to uninstall the CA712 settings from my unit and revert to the original one.
Looks like your unit is a little bit different from mine.
Hello, my device says MCU has stopped and i can't touch on my screen to make factory settings
Can someone give me some help?
What do i need to download to make the reset?
I search for hours and hours and nothing.
Thank you so much
Tried this from erisin website
E0056 ES8990G(Android 4 Core HD V2.72) Stuck in boot screen or other problem
I read the instructions, and when i start the device with file in sd card, it does nothing
Ok
Touch is working again, i download some kind of LM software and its working
But now the screen doesnt retain anymore. and most of the buttons doesnt work
Maybe i just install some kind of rom for 2 din head units
Still looking for original software to install on my unit
I email Erisin but i don't think i will get any aswer, the costumer service looks very poor
Finaly spoke to Erisin
They say that the head unit is not from their brand
What brand is this? Can someone tell me?
Installed the wrong software on it
It works, android looks the same, but i don't have bluetooth option and button to move screen doesnt work
How can i delete this " rom " ?
Here's correct firmware of not Erisin "DR7090 1 din android car head unit stereo, Android 4.4.4.'', 1024x600 resolution.
1. Please confirm the unit is in "off" condition
2. Copy all files (not folder) into a SD card root, plug the SD card into GPS card slot, turn on the radio, it will begin to update automatically...
3. After "OK", unplug SD card and restart unit.
1721831 DR7090 Update.rar
I have the same DR7090 radio with the same firmware uploaded by demiro and I still have bugs to use.
Do you know the brand or if there is already more updated firmware ??
Or if there is some alternative ROM that works better ...
Greetings comrades!

Hey there
My Head Unit is no longer saving the last used memory and the radio just stopped working this week.
I am looking for custom firmware to try and hopefully get my unit working properly.
I have searched online and with not a lot of luck. I found someone with custom Firmware on Youtube
but I have used his firmware on another unit a few years back and you can't turn off the auto screen saver option
so I would rather not use his firmware again.
Any Help?
My specs:
Pumpkin Android Radio
Model: px5 (1024 x 600)
Android Version: 10
Last security Update: 5. May 2020
Build NUmber: rk3368-userdebig 10
Kernel-Version: 4.19.111
MCU-Version: MTCU_HT_V3.71_1 Dec 19 2020
CPU: Octa-core Cortex-A53 @ 1.5G
Memory: 3937 MB
I hope someone can help
Thank you in advance.
The file I uploaded is the firmware update the seller sent to me.
Seller instructions:
Update methods:
Download the link on your computer--Don’t unzip the file update.zip. Copy this file " update.zip" to the USB root directory. Connect the USB stick to the USB port of the radio. If the radio detects the update immediately and wants to install it, click on Cancel.
Then open Settings> System> System Updates> tick the box > click Install.
I installed it all Okay. Still have the same problems.
I also found this firmware
Hal9k_Mod_5.0_MTCx_HCTx_PX5_eng.rar
From
And it also installed Okay. Looks very different (I don't really like it that much, far too bright) however I still have the same problems.
I am starting to think it's a hardware problem.
I will post back after trying something else.

You even did not tell anything about your issues you are facing. What do you mean with:

So really think about that and communicate correctly.
The same would be if you call your workshop that your car does something wrong and don´t tell them what happens.
Would you get any instructions? I think not.
So tell us the issues and then thee might be some answer possible.
@localos : I think just pushing links to any firmware version without having a bug report does not make any sense.
I got a podofo head unit radio from ebay at the beginning of the year and just recently tried to update my zlink to the latest version but was unaware that there are a bunch of different zlinks for different radios. After the update my zlink gave me a error code that said "Channel Err! CHANNEL-MISS-MATCH Apk:[zhangxun]". Then I contacted the manufacture who told me to contact the ebay seller and the ebay seller isn't replying. Has anyone else solved this problem? All I want is a functional zlink. I've seen online that apparently I have to update my android radio but I cant find a site to do so.
These are pictures that might help show what Im seeing.
That error message you are getting is giving you some useful information. It's telling you that you need to be have the zhangxun channel version of the software in order to recognize the license that came bundles with the unit. I would advise downloading the version 5.3.31 zhangxun firmware from here and following the instructions in that post. It should update you to Zlink5. If you have an issue with wireless android auto working on first attempt, try disconnecting your phone bluetooth, then reconnecting to the head unit bluetooth again while Zlink is open.

I downloaded the 5.3.31 to a usb drive plugged it into my radio and did the android update from the radio settings but now my radio keeps restarting. It starts up to the regular car dashboard for 15 seconds then says shuts down and restarts.
Can you get into Apps and notifications long enough to uninstall Zlink? If not try loading 3.9.44 from a USB thumb drive and working up from there. Make sure the file is on the root of the drive with nothing else on it. You can also try to use the reset button to see if that helps.
I tried the other files by putting them on my usb drive but i cant go the the android update through the settings because the radio keeps restarting. These are pictures showing the process it takes

Should I try the zlink apk's as well?
Unless you can uninstall any existing newer installed version of Zlink the apk files will not work. On the other hand, he gzipped files can overwrite whatever is already there. Looks like from your screen Zlink5 actually installed. By the way, just use the 4-pin USB connector when attempting updates just to be on the safe side.
It looks like what is happening is a bootloop following a failed system reset. Did this happen following the Zlink install or after pushing the reset button?

I'm sorry you got hit by this. Maybe you should cross-post this to the [APP] Z-LINK Channels thread with the screen pictures in case someone else has seen it happen.
