Hello, I bought a Winca S170 head unit and I would like to know if there are custom ROMS or at least any updates for this device. My HU is already rooted.

You should look for it on a roadnav.com forums.
Kotix builds custom ROMs and UI for winca devices.

Hi ,I have the same issue. unfortunately roadnav.com only supports RN units that is made by them and Winca roms can not be found there.
We do not know how we can find original and updated roms for our units.
could any one help us?
It is really annoying!:crying:

I had winca s100 HU before and I always used firmware from roadnav. S series devices have compatible ROMs with the ones on roadnav forums. I might be wrong regarding new versions but I doubt it.
You should ask someone there, either Leigh or Kotix should know much more than I do.

Unfortunately Roadnav forums do not have ROMS for S170 at the moment, only S160 and earlier. I need to reflash my S170 cause the digital TV shows no image, only audio, and this problem started after an debrick made by an technician and I dont have time (nor patience) to go back to him to correct the problem.
I'm wondering here if GTX ROM could be compatible with S170, cause it uses Intel Sofia 3gr like Joying HUs and I'm using the Joying Extra Tools app with no problem.

Opel Intellilink and Android Custom ROM's (OmniROM...) - Compability issues?

Hello, i havent found a similiar thread so...
We bought an Opel Adam Rocks (2014) in which there is the really nice Intellilink System. Its said it will connect with all newer Android phones that installed Android Auto, but when i plug it via USB (tried different cables already) it says "Unknown/unsupported device detected".
My phone: Oppo Find 7 is ROOTED, on latest OmniROM which is of course Android 6.XXX + Android Auto App
My question: is it GENERALLY impossible to connect rooted/Custom ROM phones to it? is there anyone that was successful?
Its not a disaster since we didn't see it as important but it surely would be nice!
Thanks.

I have similar problem at the moment with Huawei Mate 9 and intellilink R4.0 (both new). I am waiting for new firmware and will contact Opel dealer for update.
I have read different forums that different firmware on phone acts different as well as software on head unit sometimes makes problems.
Generally I have read that also some custom roms work and some don´t.
Also there have been several updates for the intellilink systems since 2014. This will cost some € at Opel Dealer. It is not for sure this helps! Maybe it is waste of money.
In this case it is google bringing the disaster... The app brings no information what is going wrong...
i'm thinking about an update for the Intellilink, indeed... and... at least its good to hear that custom ROMs CAN work, so there is still chance. thanks for the info!

Updates for Xtrons PX5: where to get from ?

Hi. I just bought a XTRONS PB68WRJP for my Jeep Grand Cherokee. The ROM and MCU are:
- ROM px5-userdebug 8.0.0 OPR5.170623.007 eng.htc (20180301.104343 test-keys)
- MCU MTCE_GS_V2.73_3 Jan 5 2018 09:59:38
I would like to know if there are updates available and from where I can get it.
Second, I would like to know how to enable the Split Screen function that actually is not working on my unit.
Thank you in advance.
This is where I downloaded my updates..

The Easiest way to get an update is to contact the Xtrons Support, they are answering quickly ( 1 Day ). Then you are safe that this update is working with your device.

There are plenty of GSI images with different roms.
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
Be sure to test only A/B partition compatible roms with the A2 Lite.
Most of them probably will have some serious bugs, others might doesn't boot at all, but at least there are some custom roms.

Disagree, among other resources we have root and unlocked bootloader. Factory IMG is available and like was said, many GSI ROMs out there. Folks are working with this phone, it may not be a Dev magnet, but this phone is easily modded.

why is there not fully working roms then?
if it had lots of options and was easy you would see them posted in these forums and some one would of done a miui port
6 years ago people say the same thing about mediatek devices
but some of us are actually able to taste some of the best custom rom out there
chill out people
devs are working
they are here for free
they owe you guys nothing
by the looks of everything
custom roms and fully working TWRP is coming sooner or later.

GSI are one single rom for more devices, right? That's why are a bit incompatible with mia2lite

I'm using GSI pixel experience on my mia2 lite. Only hotspot not working that bothers me a little.
I'm enjoying it.

Is there more ROMs?

I recently purchased an tab S4 just an update from my previous Samsung tablet. I was wondering is there more ROMs for this tablet or ROMs currently in development? I noticed theres like 2 ROMs for this tablet. I have a note 8 and I'm currently running deluxerom on and it, and I really enjoy the tweaks and customization I'm able to do. I was looking for a same kind of feature for my tablet. Would greatly appreciate the answers I'm looking for. Thanks!

Pretty much zero support. You can get a few 9.0 GSI ROMs to boot, but they all have issues. Mine has been sitting around since it was purchased while still using my old 2014 model.

Aww no way!? Really? I excitingly got this tablet cause of the features and thought perhaps there would be amazing ROMs for this particular tablet, but I guess not xD What are GSI ROMs? Also as a desperate attempt would other tablet ROMs work on this s4? Thanks mate!

I had thought the same thing, but it seems the S3 is the last tablet to get real support.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/project-treble/trebleenabled-device-development
Some of the ones for 9 will work, but most features won't work too well, if at all.
You might be able to get another rom to work, I know I had no luck. Even trying ones with similar hardware, they all failed to even flash since the booting numbers are different.
Kind of have to be satisfied with Samsung, half baked custom roms or sell the thing.

Hey Veekay I tried it and you're right unfortunately I came across the same issue as you brother
Now I'm stuck and I need help sorting my device out, was wondering if you knew this issue or could help?
When I got the stock firmware back and then when I flash TWRP with odin after going into TWRP I get 0mb as internal
so when I format and then go back into my load up the screen after SAMSUNG says "verification failed" and then reset
on the bottom. I tried other options as well. Without even wiping on TWRP the devices boots up into the setup wizard for the firmware fine
but after I wipe TWRP so I can get access to my internal drive my samsung boots into that verification reset screen. Got any clue as to how I can
resolve this issue? Thanks a bunch!

Have you tried just reloading the latest stock firmware from scratch?
Yup, its unfortunate that there isn't much community support for this device. The Tab S4 is Project Treble supported and a few GSI ROMS do work. But as others have said they are unstable and not for use as a daily driver. We have a few discussion threads here talking about them.

Would that work? If I did that I would still be able to download and install TWRP and have a root? Because of it being PIE

Generic System Image (GSI) list :
https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list
you can try only "Android 9 Pie" official or unofficial gsi roms..
and remember ! Some GSIs roms maybe are not compatible with some devices! you can ask for your device on each thread
(for example look here): https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/issues/777
(usually this Gsi aosp 9 phh, generally works on most devices...BUT! ask first,and discuss it in the thread)

Sorry,but I don't understand what do you mean " without stock rom and only twrp"...
you can install a Gsi rom, with two ways
Via TWRP, or Via Fastboot : https://www.xda-developers.com/flash-generic-system-image-project-treble-device/ (Tab S4 is a-only arm64)
for any other question, it is better to ask in the thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/pr...vice-development/aosp-9-0-phh-treble-t3831915
(read carefully in OP & you can post,every single question there for your device,and you will get certainly help from the developer or from any other user..)

You are going to have to just wipe it and start over from square one, unless you made a TWRP backup before starting all of this.
Download and flash the latest stock rom from recovery and then you can load twrp again.
I was looking at the possibility of using GSI's on some devices, and while they can offer new life to older devices, they're not entirely stable all the time unless you're willing to make your own changes. I know Lineage has made some excellent progress, but it's not fullproof yet and I wouldn't try it unless you're willing to not use your device as a daily use device.
I had an extra T-Mobile Revvlry which is basically a rebranded Moto g7 Play that I installed the Lineage GSI image and it works fairly well. However, this is more the exception to the rule and Moto devices, I feel, are far simpler in design vs certain Samsung devices. It also had a ton of trial and error involved for me to get it up and running properly.
Is it possible as the s4 becomes older, more people buy it and Samsung stops releasing official updates that someone will come along and create a ROM for it? Or is it more like Samsung locked the bootloaders and its close to impossible to write a ROM for it? Is it still possible to root the s4?

Thanks. I took a quick peak at the roms and kernels in the roms and kernels forum and they are pretty much all abandoned.
Someone did mention that the LOS 16.0 and ArrowOS GSI's work alright but are a bit buggy.

samsung,maybe at the end of july to give the upgrade to android 10....it is very likely to happen I think
yes,all Gsi Roms still have various problems unfortunately...
my opinion is: stay to stock rom for now....you can "uninstall" many applications if you want & without root, via "samsung package disabler"(paid) from playstore, or with this way:
https://beebom.com/how-remove-bloatware-android-without-root/
also,you can Install "NiceLock Downloader Companion App" ,to add some features on your device : https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/themes/nicelock-module-download-links-module-t3923844
with this way I operate my device until now..

Question Has anyone got Android Auto working on Chinse version? Any way to go CN->Global?

It seems this is an issue with Chinse ROM - I found similar problem people are having with Realme GT.
There's an error that USB accessory doesn't support Andoir Auto, and in the app itself it says "Android Auto was not preinstalled on this device. Android Auto must be bundled with your operating system to work correctly".
It looks like AA should be baked into the OS, as it uses some kernel-level stuff.
So, has anyone got around this? Or is there any way to flash Global version on chinese phone?
Had the same issue. looking forward to any modified ROMs.
no rom for this pretty boy
sad
