MCU & Android update for dummies (erisin es6963c) - MTCD Android Head Units General

Originally this thread was my stupid questions about how to update android car head unit. As a novice to these things it felt bit complicated but I assure you, it's actually easier than rooting a phone for example. I make simple steps, so people new to this can get the picture and not spam all threads with stupid questions (like we all do lol)
1. Update MCU
First things first, you need to update your head units MCU to most recent version. MCU stands for MicroControllerUnit, and you need to be specific and use ONLY right file for your head unit! (For example my unit is shown in picture, it's MTCD/E machine, it got PX5 coreboard and it's made by Leica semiconductor & electronics company, which is abbreviated as LM; So in this context I would download for example MTCE_LM_v3.67 file.
After downloading, unzip, put dmcu.img to root folder of the usb stick or sd card, stick it on and go to head units Settings > System > Update MCU.
It's really important that you use ONLY right file for your head unit!!!
Here you can find list of MCU files:
XDA - Comprehensive list of MCUs for MTCD/E head units
Yandex - Comprehensive list of MCUs for MTCD/E head units
2. Install new Android version
Newer android version can be referred as ROM or FirmWare (As I see it, FW is MCU and Android OS is ROM but let's not get into debate or complicate when I'm trying to KISS it)
user @marchnz has compiled nice thread on how to update to android 10.
If you don't have SD card on your hand or you are lazy/hesitant/what ever, you can use ModInstaller Pro made by @Hal9k_ It's safe and makes life a breeze!
I recommend updating step by step 6>7>8>9>10 and before proceeding to custom rom, install appropriate stock android version first. I advice to backup important files and do a factory reset before flashing new rom and after install wipe data/ factory reset (ModInstaller Pro does this for you after it's done installing). Also pay attention
Here's a list to stock android files.
Yandex - Stock android versions
It's best to check from factory settings what BT-module you have, before proceeding to upgrade. Make sure to check that your devices BT-module works with the android version you intend to install or you just waste time flashing different versions. And it's completely normal if you dont get it right the first time. I have WQ_BC6/8 BT-module and had to use WQ_BC8 before android 10 and now WQ_BC6 on android 10 (if i remember correctly). If you have MD-725 or SD-968 BT-module you can try using BT codec from earlier Android version. Don't even bother trying to get these modules work on Android 10, not gonna happen. It's better to solder a new BT-module if you really want Android 10.
If SD-968 was working in Android 8, but does not work in Android 9. Solution: replace the module driver /system/bin/sdsdk968 with the old version. Do not forget to set permissions 755 on the file. Same can be tried on MD-725 from Android 6/7 to Android 8, I don't guarantee it will work. Files are out there (and in your machine before making the update).
If you happen to install package with wrong resolution, you can try to fix it using this (yandex).
For different look you can try different launchers from google play or yandex link again.
That's it. Not too complicated. If you want to root your head unit, easiest way is to flash a custom rom that has It done for you already. I really recommend ModInstaller Pro even though it cost a bit. But it saves time and nerves and it's safe to use especially for novice. By doing yourself without knowledge you might end up bricking your device!
For me this new territory of android car head units was like a swampland even though I'm experienced on rooting and flashing android phones but for example adb sideloading is most of the time not even an option when playing with these head units.
I spent hours and days to get into this, but now I can update a head unit and make app installs and settings in under 1 hour.
Remember every unit is different! Not everything works on all devices. Get to know the unit you are playing with, update MCU, after that decide what android version is ok with your device (BT-module) then update (highly recommend ModInstaller Pro)

This is MCU update

This is forums for learing

So got that new MCU and experienced with different ROMs. Got the machine work bit faster but Im still experiencing problems with BT. I had Malaysk Oreo and BT mic sounded underwater, not sure if it was using internal and external mic at the same time. Didn't rule that out when I went trying Hal9k Pie, didn't get any BT connectivity.
Now I'm planning to roll back to Oreo or earlier or ordering RF210 module and taking a shot. I'm just hesitant on both options because rolling back might get that device work slower and in the other hand tinkering the inners of the machine is always a risk. Any recommendations especially on rom side is appreciated. New HU is not an options.

I tried hal9k android 9 and got BT to connect, but hands-free is not working. I have to select WQ_BC8 from factory settings for BT and then it gives CAR-KIT device name in bluetooth. Does anyone have any knowledge about this BT module and can it work in more recent versions of android?

Didn't have much luck getting BT work well on Android 8 & 9 custom roms, didn't even try BT connectivity on stock roms. Don't know if it was just user error or custom roms I tried, but magically in Android 10 BT worked great, both stock and custom rom. Still need to make sure OBD connection works.
If people new to these things need help, please don't hesitate to ask a question! My idea for this thread is a collection of dumb questions so we don't litter official threads meant for other use than FAQ.

(?) Joying/Pumpkin 5.1.1 Android Headunit Netflix Problem

I am trying to find a good head unit for my Scion TC 05, and an android tablet/headunit is perfect for its radio hatch.
I have recently purchased several android head units. The first being a Pyle 480x800 DVD + android headunit, model PLDNAND692. It ran 4.4.4 KitKat, but the screen resolution was too low, dpi made interface look terrible, and DVD drive was not needed. Netflix played fine though. It runs a RK3066, yet a quad core configuration.
I returned the Pyle due to the old software, low res screen, and overall buggyness with DVD drive.
Recently purchased both a Pumpkin and a Joying Headunit from amazon, and both have no problems with Hulu, Youtube, and other streaming video services, but when trying to view Netflix on either, I am met with a Error code 0013. I have tried all possible fixes, including clearing data, uninstall/reinstall, installing an older build, and a factory reset. Please help.
1) go to system->apps
2) force stop
3) clear data and clear cache
4) uninstall
5) reinstall

Already did that.
Did it again for good measure, same result

Emailed with joying, and they confirmed that Netflix has a problem with mtcd units with lollipop. I just bought the kit kat version of the radio instead. Much smoother UX, and doesn't have the memory leak problem lollipop is known for. Lollipop looks better, granted, but their kit Kat models are more fleshed out. And way easier to root.

Don't even need to root. Just flash a compatible 4.4. ROM.
I also have a Lollipop unit (KLD6 2.97, RK3188, 1024*600) downgraded to 4.4 and couldn't be happier.

No, I am using Booroondook's 4.4. ROM - get it from HERE
Installation procedure HERE
I like Booroondook's ROM because it's very close to stock.
If you fancy flashy graphics, get Malaysk's ROM from this thread
Both are rooted, have FUSE, Xposed framework and allow for lots of customizations.

Thanks a lot! Any reason why carjoying say dont update 5.1.1 units with Malaysk rom from XDA? Anyway I guess it doesn't matter if I am downgrading.

Make sure you have a MTCB or MTCC unit.
Joying also produces MTCD units and those are not compatible. Actually they say: If you have Malaysk don't try to upgrade to 5.1 using our ROM image, that is for MTCD units and will not work on yours.
If you do have a MTCD unit check the dedicated section.

Thanks, looks like I'll be busy over the weekend then!
So instead of following advise I decided to attempt to root my device with the thinking that I may be able to take a nandroid backup before tinkering with custom firmware. Anyway I followed another thread directions for rooting my particular device using the *#... code through settings factory reset and then kingroot, SuperSU etc etc.
IT WORKED!
I then for no reason opened the kingroot app again and it started its process again by me possibly clicking something and the device rebooted and got stuck on Joying screen bootloop, I couldn't even get back into recovery...for some time.
I know this is way off topic as this is more related to root than this threads topic but there seems to be limited threads on these devices and I thought by chance someone might be able to help.
I have been able to boot to recovery several times and factory reset, install stock firmware, update firmware etc but all seem to install then get stuck on lollipop screen.
Please see attached photo, this is where I'm at.
I'm sure, given that I can boot to recovery I should be able to fix this issue eventually with the right firmware files but I am more curious about the file structures when you download a firmware package.
Some downloads just have .img file and some have two files dupdate.img and dmcu.img.
Can someone explain what these files are and why some downloads only have dupdate.img.
Also if someone has a solution for my issue or a link to another thread that could help please let me know or I guess I'll keep flashing firmware packages until something happens.
Happy new year!

I am really confused as to which file I put on the SD card to update the MCU. Can someone please point me in the right direction. Super NoOb here.
Is the first file the MCU update and the second file the android update?
@hotaudio Can you update your bluetooth phone app to include a mute button? It is relatively useless for me without this feature (need to be on mute over long meeting calls with a kid in the car)
or otherwise provide information on how to replace this app with another phone app?

the mcu update is just a few Kilobytes while the ROM (firmware) update is above 700MB
the mcu update file shall be named as dmcu.img (if you received a Zip file with both ROM & MCU, decompress it to get both)
put it on SDcard as mentioned and go to settings>System information>MCU update
@hotaudio is there a easy way to gain root for your system?
I was able to update. Everything went fine except now when I turn the car on and the HU wakes up it displays "Unfortunately Music has stopped working". Anyone know of a fix. Might try a wipe and install of the update. Any thoughts appreciated.

Seems like you flashed an MCU as well as the ROM and it was the MCU from a different manufacturer, in order to restore it you need to find out which manufacturer your unit is from. Do you know ?

hello, unfortunately I don't know the manufacturer, I bought it on Aliexpress, and now the seller is no longer active, and there is no manufacturer reference on the radio.
Take some pics of the sides, back and underneath if the unit - may be able to identify it. Do you remember what the MCU was before ?
EDIT : Hold on, that wallpaper suggest that it might be a KGL unit - upload those photos to confirm. Flashing a KGL MCU may help, but with no mcu.cfg it may be a struggle to restore everything. Having said that the wallpaper will have just come from the ROM you flashed, so probably best open the unit up and get the manufacturer from the motherboard to be certain.

hello typos1, I detected a problem, damn it, when I turn the physical sound button to the left, the sound decreases is correct, but when I turn to the right to increase the sound it decreases too, do you know what it could be?
why do people keep modifying car radio like that's so risky it would be terrible while your driving and radio suddenly start out of nowhere
Yes, it is because you did not go into factory settings and export your MCU settings before you flashed the MCU, you need to do this always, I understand it is because you did not know what you are doing but that is why you have the problem.
Go into factory settings and try and remap the buttons, but I dont think it works on the volume kob, you can also try changing the knob mode in factory settings. If none of this works you need to find someone with another XRC unit and try flashnig their mcu.cfg.

He did not "modify" it, he flashed a ROM without realising that there was an MCU file with it. As for mods, people have modified these stereos for years - check out all the threads about it - and mnay of these mods are very useful and correct bugs from the factory.

yeah im not trying to criticize something im just amaze that people would "flash" not "modify" btw stuff as long as there running android such as car stereo system instead of sticking to stock version
What he flashed was a stock update, so still not a mod.
The factory ROMs are not good, again, for years people on here have modified and improved the facpory ROM, many, including me would never even use the factory ROM at all.

calm, what led me to do the upgrade was the radio brought factory problems, the clock was always incorrect, gps was never in the right place, etc., and the seller never supported me ...

A guide how to use the recovery images for anyone using the shield root tools:
All Codes Are In The Description Boxes
final version or rc?
Has anyone else attempted this flash? I got it booted after a fresh partition wipe, bc yesterday, the launcher kept crashing, however, even today it continues to crash. I can play around in settings and i'm sure a custom launcher would work fine, however I had someone who wanted to see the stock version early and this is erm, not quite right haa...
and what i mean by crash is it intermittently flashes black and then back into the launcher. no discernable pattern or guess as to why. going to continue to toy with it and try to update it...
---edit i jumped the gun, i think those flashes were updates
----so after flashing the system over, wait for the shield to post into the chromecast screensaver, dont mess with it, then it will be fine

I think My main question would Be, and forgive me, because I'm learning as I go, While Running Stock, are you able to post into TWRP, after unlocking the bootloader?
Like, through fastboot, theoretically you shouldn't have to install the developer images as i did in my examples,,, but if you could get TWRP recovery to post, while in stock, with a momentarily unlocked bootloader, you should be able to run the OEM unlock code, then flash the staging blob, as well as the new images...
i do not mean to disrespect NVIDIA... but if you read their flash codes...
you can tell their devs are much more proficient on linux,
which is a great trait~! but it doesnt translate well for windoz userz...
Does anyone know if it is possible to update to consumer release via OTA after flashing this developer release?
I'd like to install this developer release on my girlfriend's Shield TV 2017 now and once Nvidia releases the consumer release, would she be able to update it via OTA? She is not technically proficient to update it to the consumer release by herself using fastboot and ADB.
Shield Experience 9.0.0 is working perfectly. I don't know why USB devices take forever to load files on Android 11 and crashes MX Player? Anyone else having the same issue? It's a developmental image so having these bugs occur is what happens. Anyways I reverted back to 8.2.3 and my issue is now resolved

Seems like this new update does not like Magisk.
FLashing Magisk.zip causes me to be stuck going into bootloader.
@ jenneh - Did your notepad not have the replace option?

If you can't get Plex Server up and running after installing this all, go here to sign up for the official hotfix from Nvidia or go here for the official hotfix from Plex.

NEVER MIND I LIED.
I tried to do the known working procedure from memory and missed a step, the method still works. Got latest update with root running row. Shame I had to do a factory reset while trying to figure things out but small sacrifices...

Thank you for sharing your experience, I have some issue... to prevent fragment external HDD I prefer ext4 fs and unfortunately the nvidia roms doesnt support at this time! So I install microg magisk module on LineageOS 17 but I encountered black screen! also I install official microG release: https://download.lineage.microg.org/mdarcy/lineage-17.1-20220110-microG-mdarcy.zip but I encountered black screen too!

[RECOVERY] [OFFICIAL] TWRP for Shield Android TV
Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven...

I still only see the 8.2.3 recovery listed on the Nvidia website. I didn't sign in as a developer though. Where did you get version 9.0.0?

It has been officially released. If you're not signed up as a developer or if the developer site doesn't work for you like it didn't for me, then your best bet is to lock bootloader (if it's unlocked), check for updates and then install the updates, then unlock the bootloader and add any/all of your modifications back.
Had issues bypassing Google login so jumped on the Lineage bandwagon. Is there anything worthwhile in 9.0 over 8.2.3?

Dasaita MAX 10 RK3399 Upgrade.. LOST Sound , Canbus Features, Rear View Camera

Okay People,
Here's the dealio..
I purchased the HA5217-MAX10-CP-HD. It has been AMAZING! Until Last night I hopped in and It was stuck in Bootloop REcovery Mode.

I tried all the reset procedures, cleared the cache and finally got in but no sound came out of the unit and no SWC worked.. so I took a few pics to show the exact firmware I was using.
This was my original firmware when everything was working..
I Did all the reset procedures to make everything boot into Android but, none of my sound was working except the sound of the touches on the screen.
So, I navigated to the FIRMWARE FILE Download Sections here in the Forums and thought maybe I needed to reflash the firmware maybe the latest updated firmware. HA3_rk3399_10.0_ota(20221111) which is currently installed and now it boots into Android looks a little different.
I still have no sound , the steering wheel controls wont register, the customized EQ settings for the DSP are gone.
THIS IS THE WAY IT USED TO LOOK!
The canbus CB004 unit isnt showing vehicle info like (Door Ajar, Climate, ect. ) Also, No rearview camera fuction at all.
It used to have all these extra functions specific to my 2014 Toyota Corolla W/O JBL
My gut feeling is that I am missing something to do with a custom canbus firmware or extra APKs I need to load perhaps?
I'm not sure what an MTU / DMCU file does ... maybe I need one of those?
I really need help with this
I Made A Video Explaining the whole thing.
if your able to help me, I would really appriciate it!
You started out in the wrong end. Sound, SWC and reverse has nothing to do with firmware. It's a canbus problem. Due to the fact that no car is selected, canbus won't work. Select your car to start with.
Logos are not provided any more due to copyright problems. Google is your friend.
I know this is a month old. I have the MAX10 in my 2016 Toyota Tundra.
Have you tried to update the MCU? The current version is 3.78. In a worst case scenario your canbus adapter could be bad. Considering everything used to work

I have the same CB004 harness. I know for my Toyota Tundra I had to select 08 TOYOTA_CAMRY&RAV4.
I've installed the Dasaita's Scout, Vivid, Original MAX10 Firmwares, as well as hal9k and Malaysk modified firmwares and never seen it reset anything other than Android.
Then again these units do have some unique issues.

Did you ever get your issues fixed? I can help with the car logo because I noticed it was gone too. Go to car logo in factory settings and check the box that says "user" and the logos that used to be there will be back. And for the canbus selection, select 08 TOYOTA_CAMRY. I would also update your MCU to the latest version 3.78 Firmwares.
