What unit do I have? - Android Head-Units

Hi, I want to be able to update my firmware but it seems this is not a genuine unit from googling, I bought it off AliExpress a long time ago, was working great but now the control buttons are not all working, eg the back button doesn't go back anymore but brings up the settings like option button, done a factory reset but still the same, android auto hardly understand and commands, works find on phone when not connected to android auto, hoping an update might fix that but can't find anything, anyone any idea from the pictures?
Thanks

No, I would try to contact the seller and ask for help.
This firmware is completely unknown.

Odd ball

Ok, thanks, seller wasn't much help on AliExpress so I tho i give here a try if someone might came across one of these before

By the way... As I can read on your pics, the Android API is called 28. If it would be Android 10, you should read API29 in there.
That means, this is a fake Android 10 version.Instead this is an Android 9 version.
Doesn´t make things better I think.
It´s often a mess with the seller as they even don´t know what they are selling.
Hope that someone has already seen this kind of firmware/MCU, but I have no real hope.

Pardon my ignorance, but quote: "was working great" and "hoping an update might fix that" seem inconsistent. If it was working correctly, why would it need an 'upgrade' to fix it? Surely there is some other reason it is now not working correctly?

pardon my ignorance too, how did you miss all the words between "was working great" and "hoping an update might fix that"
"was working great" but now the control buttons are not all working, eg the back button doesn't go back anymore but brings up the settings like option button, done a factory reset but still the same, android auto hardly understand and commands, works find on phone when not connected to android auto, "hoping an update might fix that but can't find anything, anyone any idea from the pictures?"
I'm not sure why you had to pick out the start and end of it and left out the rest

Calm down folks...
In most units you should be able to adapt the hardware buttons and touch buttons somewhere in the settings.
As I don´t know your specific unit, you need to search yourself... sorry to say.
At least, I don´t think that a firmware update would help here, as those settings are persisted.
So take your time and step through the internal settings of this unit. May be there is something hidden behind a PIN. If there is something like that, you need to try to get the PIN from the seller. They should know them.
...but be really careful not to change anything if you are not sure. Can make things seriously bad.

I have the pin and I have went in to settings for the buttons and dials, setting has not been changed and no matter which button settings I use, no difference
I'm calm alright dont worry, just dont understand the point and purpose of a reply that just picking the start and end of my post and completely ignored the rest.

Because the piece in between is irrelevant. If it was working fine then no update is needed unless you have installed or changed something since that is not compatible with the original firmware. If you have not, then the firmware has not changed itself to make something not work.
I'm sorry you cannot see the logic in that, I'll leave the thread now.

Dead camera on every rom....

I for the life of me cant figure out why my camera is completely dead! I have FULLY wiped all caches,everything under 'WIPE' via AMONS and even formatted my SD card as well as trying an alternate SD card(both 8GB--C6speed)--never had a problem w either card on ANY ROM...ALL OF A SUDDEN the past 2days my camera goes to a FULL BLACK SCREEN,when pressing the CAMERA icon. Occasionally the taskbar will remain uptop but will timeout when screen display shutsoff. Now if i launch CAMERA via DESIRE ROM(KING),ill get the notice about clicking trackball to resume camera but as soon as i click it,the message dissapears and the screen will go back to black screen again...and repeat. I SWEAR i have DONE MULTIPLE COMPLETE WIPES AND REFORMATS so im left to believe its THE HARDWARE itself! CAN ANYBODY PLEASE LEND ME A HAND IF the similar problemhas occured...On the Nandroid backups that ive restored from FULLY FUNCTIONING bkups,if i launch NEXUS TORCH it will say CANNOT ACCESS LED---this is THE ONLY info besides the "camera wake message"mentioned earlier that i can provide. Thanks in advance and pleas edont flame for NOT being in Q&A bc this is more of a DEV related restore question.
**oh and BTW--I DID TRY TO INSTALL the DESIRE R2 cam fix and does nothing. I tried it when all was working fine early in the week and it did nothing to help FLASH timing for me,so i NAN restored back to prior state and CAMERA continued working until about THURSDAY night--regardless--PHONE is in OUT OF BOX STATE--MINUS UNLOCKED and it STILL doesnt work!---PEACE and Happy Mothers Day to any Mothers out there in XDA world!

Your hardware has malfunctioned. Contact HTC for a repair.
1. you may have a broken camera, try a stock rom
2. your caps lock button is definitely broken
3. you posted in the wrong section

1. i should have known you were from Philly and cant read--I TRIED STOCK ROM
2. CAPS is to put highlights on key terms so idiots dont read over the fact that I DID TRY STOCK ROM---see how that helps?
3. Thanks for your informative responses---any suggestions from CAPTAIN OBVIOUS how to get service on a ROOTED device without being charged full price on the phone?? Ahhh--thought not!--So i tried here to see if anyone else had similar situation. AGAIN-thanks for your help as well SERIAL TOON--geez
If it's a hardware failure they won't charge you.
I think it will help if you go through Google Cust service first...they will end up redirecting you to HTC repair. Provide all truthful information on your issue, proving that you have done some legitimate trouble shooting and they will realize that it is a hardware issue, not the ROM flashing or bootloader unlocking that caused the problem. Someone else on the xda forums had a rooted phone with bluetooth problem and was able to send to HTC for repair for free...with a 4 day turnaround!
Good luck!
What do you base this on...Heresay?

I didnt intend to sound rude,im just a little pissed right now..I Only ask bc i already had an issue in January days after receipt of phone. Issue was solved by sending me a new battery bc other was causing random shutdowns (ive since forwarded this info to another XDAmember that had exact same issue and they give him replacement phone at 1st but issue continued to occur--i told him about my story after he posted his problem, he contacted them this weekend and confirmed with me today that a new battery was on the way..see my public IM's for info). Anyway,when i was dealing with the battery issue they said they would definately NOT be able to fix under warranty bc the phone is rooted and unlocked. I can attest to the few people on here that said theyve been successful in such cases,but either way,IVE ALREADY STATED that i tried the DESIRE R2 camera kernal to see if that helps,so im not going to be dishonest and tell them i havent tried anything other than custom roms. Again..positive suggestions or similar experiences with warranty info would be appreciated....trollers looking for a funny post or to degrade people can eat one!

Thanks JOSH, ill look into it tommorrow--as i stated tho--i feel im being dishonest for trying the DESIRE R2 cam and saying that they should cover it---uninformed people will assume THAT couldve caused it,even though i used phone afterwards for a few days w no side effects
Hey Milton, like others have mentioned in here might want to try flash back to stock and seeing if the problem persists. If it does then your looking at a hardware problem and you should contact HTC/google for repair.
Yea...i was thinking that from get go--(hardware prob). Im on cheesy STOCK ROM right now and have been for cpl hrs...but its obvious its gotta be hardware...NOW comes the crappy part of trying to explain it to HTC when attempting to get an RMA!--Yee Haa!
MOD PLEASE CLOSE OR DELETE---THANKS!
Milton, among the items on the very small list of things folks around here want in return for helping you is that you lay off the caps. Doesn't highlight anything that you'd want to highlight.

Okay,,,this is weird!!..My TORCH hadnt been working at all either, the whole time ive had the camera problem. Now ,the torch will work for ONE TURN ON, then if i launch CAMERA, the cam still doesnt work. i have to HOME and HOME only to get back to home screen..BACK ARROW does nothing except vibrate,indicating touch response. If i then re-launch TORCH, it doesnt work....!??SOMETHING is ODD--and im split whether its hardware- or some sorta SYSTEM file that stays stuck even after all STOCK FLASHES and everything!--again,reminder..the LED TORCH hadnt worked up until this point--unit has NEVER been dropped,slid out of pocket from 1foot high onto superthick carpet,so i doubt its a loose internal cable...Hmmm...

That seriously hurts my eyes to look at. Try using proper punctuation and grammar. It's very simple and still gets your point across.
As for your phone. Call Google which will probably have you call HTC. People have gotten their rooted devices fixed for free if it's a genuine hardware problem and nothing caused from the rooting process.

You should send it to HTC for repair. Charging fee or not, but thats the only option to you right now because its a hardware failure.

I was thinking the exact same thing, don't know where he must have learned how to type. Then you criticize people from Philly, or whatever its called somewhere, for not knowing how to read. I would say mirror that advice and learn how to type.. type properly.
Torch will work until camera app is used then it wont work again until i reboot. After reboot, torch will work ONLY on regular/lower setting. MAX brightness will not work. Toggle back to LOW setting and torch will work again. Im going to try what DOUG suggested bc that is the only thing i havent tried yet...but the way torch and camera are acting up and requiring reboots keeps me willing to try software tricks first...WHAT ties the TORCH's HI setting to the camera app adn yet keeps the LOW setting seperate!??..ill try the TORCH dev real quick for some insight on how the two work hand in hand.Thanks for anyone using their time to help instead of criticize. Sorry for mocking ones ability to read but i was quite [email protected] time bc i lost a major function on my phone.My apologies to all

The attitude, hostility and the caps are not welcome here.
Along with the others I have no sympathy for you. Learn proper grammar and get a better attitude.
Troll much? Go tell your mother happy mothers day if you have that much time to pull up old posts from people asking questions in a 'kernal forum' about basics. Basics that anyone should know, if not they stand a much better chance on damging their phone. It wasnt being ignorant. Since you know everything there is to know about everyones posts, tell me where the topic dealing with my specific camera issue has been previously posted and ill be glad to read and search thru that forum. I wasnt the one asking questions about something mentioned in the OP (uh oh i used caps--oh geesh-someones gonna be saaad now!)and numerous pages before. Im sorry i dont spend all my life on forums to know that only words approved for caps are indeed CAPITALIZED. Petty little boy-and by the way, i was trying to stress your good advice by typing your name in caps so people would credit you with the help-Sorry to have taken your precious time sir. Good day.

TWRP Installed (I Think) But I Can't Get To It

*hides face in shame*
If you are having a issue or not sure of what a problem might be it is always smart to ask. All you have to do is state your problem as specific as you can and usually someone will get back to you fairly soon. There is no reason to hide your face in shame xda is here to help people... twrp is a common issue with many people and I know that with all of the posts out there it is sometimes hard to tell what fixed and did not fix an issue... Hold your head up high you got more balls than most for at least trying and who knows maybe even succeeding...!
I see you shamefully found your own answer but I'd like to point out that quick boot from the market works on the kf and is a very easy way to reboot straight into recovery without having to mess with firefire.

No sound after upgrade to Andriod 11

So I have a china mode IN2020 that was working great.
I am in the US.
After One Plus sent down an upgrade to Andriod 11 I started had issues with the phone.
The text messages took forever to load and trying to send them was a waste of time. I changed the text message program and solved that issue.
Then the phone starts doing weird things, I would go to dial and it would just right back to the phone screen, programs crashed, etc.
The last problem was the phone now is useless the speaker (does not matter if I use the speakerphone, earpiece or Bluetooth) Is DEAD during a call. the person on the other end of the call hears me fine but, I hear nothing.
One plus says it is because of the motherboard not working with the US upgrade.
They want to charge me $350 to replace it with a US version.
I have since flashed it back to Andriod 10 and again it works perfectly.
I have also tried TWRP to flash to a custom ROM but the phone will NOT flash.
I get errors like wrong Andriod version or a check sum error occured.
Any help or suggestions...
thanks!!
If / when you upgrade to 11 I would highly recommend a factory wipe afterwards..
Jumping between bases causes issues and a wipe fixes them, at least in my case.
It's like jumping between ROMs, always best to have a fresh start.. 10-11 isn't any different, it's possible a mod may have caused it.
So if you had viper running on 10 then you updated to 11 and didn't disable it it could have borked it, or there could have been left over remnants of it left behind..
Again a wipe would help here
I was/am running stock ROM.
and thanks but I did do a factory reset.

How did you update the phone? Via system?
Grab oxygen updater and get it from there.
No reason why it shouldn't work
the phone updated automatically (via One Plus)
but after that did not work i downgraded it to 10 and then tried it again with the same result.
My understanding is the phone has a different motherboard, it is an IN2020.
They say it runs a different os...

The board strictly speaking shouldn't mean you don't get audio? That's just wrong..
Personally I haven't used the Chinese version of the 1+8pro but if an update is available then it should accept it correctly.
I agree, BUT they told me to send it it for a repair and if they replace the motherboard it will cost me $350.When i said the update should work no matter where i am the answer i received was if you are in the US and get that update it can cause issues.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the update itself, I highly doubt it, but you can try downloading the update from Oxygen Updater and install it again, make sure you factory reset right after finishing.
If it doesn't work, then I think it might be something with your hardware, couldn't be something else I suppose
Ys I did that also and same result.
It this phone goes to Andriod 11 it has the speaker issue, No matter how it gets there..

They're wrong, just putting that out there.
So what are you meant to do?

If so just use a VPN, install it and prove them wrong because they're chatting bubbles.

Greeting from OnePlus.
This email is regarding your repair request RMA# OP202012290204583075 for OnePlus 8 Pro.
I see that you have created a repair request for the OnePlus 8 Pro device due to the earphone malfunction. We certainly understand the need and importance of having the device working in an optimal condition. We are here to assist you.
We would like to keep you informed that we will be able to repair all components apart from the motherboard. After inspection, if we find it to be an issue with the motherboard we will be unable to proceed further with the repair as it is a Chinese version and due to region difference and unavailability of the motherboard, the device will be sent back without repair.
Also, we are glad to inform you that we have approved your repair request. If you would like to continue with the above repair options you can follow the shipping instructions and send the device for repair. If not, you can revert us so that we can get the repair request canceled.
this is BS!!!

Tbh pal they wouldn't have Chinese boards there.
I honestly cannot see them doing any ad-hoc soldering, so if taking it apart and putting it back together doesn't fix it or changing the earpiece and speaker modules then they'll send it back.
Give it a shot there not much you can do.
How come you bought a Chinese version? Cost?
I'm not going to send it in because it is a motherboard component issue that happened only with Andriod 11, so why waste my time and be without a phone.
I honestly got it as a gift and did not know it was the in2020.

Factory Settings Questions - Please help

I have some Factory Settings questions as I’m trying to change my boot screen image. My Factory Settings have a 3 digit passcode that I don’t know. It’s not 126. I’ve tried all 1000 possibilities, it actually didn’t take that long, and nothing worked. I later read one comment that said you need to wait 30 seconds between attempts. Can anyone verify this? Also, on 6.0 can anyone verify that you can set your own boot image and aren’t limited to the pre loaded ones? I don’t want to spend a lot of time trying to get in only to not be able to set my own image. Thanks!

If I were you, I would start by mentioning the headset brand in detail. Then it's worth to search for a similar device on this website. A factory reset gives you the option to do a new start with new password. Almost every Android device gives you also the option to change your wallpaper.

Hello and thanks for the reply. I have a very specific head unit that very few, if any, people have looked to change the boot image. It’s the Porsche Classic Radio (PCCM) but I have it in a DeLorean. It’s made by Kramer in Germany. I emailed them for the code and they didn’t know it, which leads me to believe they didn’t develop the software. It was probably developed in China. Thanks for your help.

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.

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?
