MTCD, MTCE of MTCB? (Root?) - Android Head-Units

Hi All,
I'm new to this forum, and new to Android too.
I bought an Android Auto Unit last week and it works great!
There are a few apps that i like to try on my unit, this is a Mekede M300, bought on AliExpress and it has Android 10 installed.
For using these apps, my device has to be rooted.
So i was looking for a way to root my device, but got stuck on my way trying to find out how to do this.
I don't know exactly in what category my unit belongs...... there are forum for MTCD, MTCE of MTCB, can someone explain to me what this means??
Maybe after that i can determine in what category my unit belongs.
Is someone also knows how to root my device, i would be very greatfull!
Thanks in advance!

A little late, but I ran across your topic now. You can find out what kind of unit is your by going into Settings, then into About like on any Android device.

Thinking about buying a HuiFei MCU-MX unit - can someone answer a few ?easy queries

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.

Sorry i can not help you more.
Have a nice day!
Best regards

Unknown Android Head Unit - Firmware Help

Hi all. I inherited an Android Head Unit, and would like to learn about how to stay on top of firmware updates as the need arises. I'v done a good amount of searching, and I could use some help. In particular, It seems to be running an MCU that I cant find much reference to. The software that it is running is MTCE_AW_3.75b_1. This is a PX6 (1280x720) model running Android 10.
I'm willing to do the legwork to figure this out, but was hoping that some of you may be able to set me off on the right track. Thanks in advance.

What you need is the Malaysk MOD - it's the one package that'll do magic for your head unit.

Help in identifying my Android Head Unit

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.
