How can I make it WW again... this is causing me an impressive amount of problems.
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] FruitlessPotato:
Is this happening when you try to install stock from a custom ROM?
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] Fallendreams11:
Happened then as well. However currently it is happening with the stock ROM that I restored after getting rid of the custom ROM

Let me also give a background. I was on CM13, went to go update got an error saying I needed to update my firmware in order to install. So I tried a crap ton to get stock roms to install, didnt work (SKU was blank). So I restored my original/stock rom which would not restore the data.
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] FruitlessPotato:
I am having the same issue. I have tried and fail many times to install UL-Z00T-WW-21.40.1220.1615-user.

Always with Error 7

Right now I am stuck in fastboot with no access to recover other than fastboot boot twrp.img

However when I try to reinstall lollipop It fails with another error
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] Fallendreams11:
Okay so a guy on Reddit told me that errors dont mean anything, you need to look at the logs and see what caused them which is done by the recovery log.

And if you have TWRP recovery on there try to flash CM12 for the zenfone. CM13 flashes for me but randomly/constantly reboots

**** that looks like you are doing CM13 and it is telling you your firmware is out of date.

So it wants you to flash the latest stock firmware.... but you and I are in the boat were our phones wont let us do that. Dude I do not know :(
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] FruitlessPotato:
me either, tried updating the updater-script and all but to no avail
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] Fallendreams11:
Is your phone on Android 5.0.2?

I was trying to find ROMs that fit that version. There are definitely other custom roms then just CM
[Zenfone 2 Laser General] Fallendreams11:
Fruitless! Download the CM13 nightly from june 14th!

Dont do the most recent.

Edit: I know this sounds sketchy and or stupid but I have a cm13 rom from june 14th that I downloaded then, it works. The CM13 from then that I downloaded today did not. I can see about uploading the one that did work if the one you download doesnt work.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Hi,

I have a problem with the screen: the image is smaller than the screen.

The unit is: Seicane/ MTCB-KLD2-V2.81/ARM Cortex-A9 [MENTION=1247388]1.6[/MENTION]GHz (x4)/ rk3188-eng4.4.4 27112015/Kernel root@chun#1704

The problem can be seen in the photos attached.

The story is:

-Initially I had a problem with the system sounds (touching any button triggered a sound). I tried to reduce the volume from factory settings. the unit didn't kept the settings. They sent me the first update img file. It didn't solve the problem.

-They sent a 2ndimg file that solved the sound problem but the image shortened.

-The 3rd update img file still didn't solved the screen problem.

At the 2nd update I chose to wipe data and format flash. Probably that was what caused the image problem.

Now if I check the resolution, this is 480x800. On their website (seicane SKU: 118328 Model:S168073) it says HD 1024x600.

I rooted the 2nd update version with Kingroot and used an app to change the resolution: it changed it but with the same dimension of the image (only icons size changed)

I would need something to stretch the image over the whole screen.

Any ideeas?

Thanks.

[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
I have another question. If I do a Factory Reset, will I be able to restore it with the update file provided by the Seicane team? Or I need the mcu also? Can I use an Kld mcu downloaded from internet?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Marmalux:
Hello/Salut Bogdan.

The problem it appears to be that they have sent you the wrong firmware. You have allready requested them a Rom to solve your first issue and they have sent you the firmware with problem solved but for the lower resolution device model. I guess that they did this intentionaly beacuase it is a bug that they are still working on it and it is not yet fixed for your version of resolution.

The MCU is the kernel, do not mess with it, do not flash new one ! Wiping data will affect only the rom (not the MCU).

My personal recomendation is to download the Malaysk rom (for your resolution 1024x600) and install that one. It works very well.

Or you cand wait a bit longer for the seller to provide you with the correct screen resolution Rom.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
OK. Thanks. I'm gonna try to update the software again with the last -3rd- update they sent. But this tine I'm going to wipe the data from flash. If it doewn't work I'll use what you suggested.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
I've tried again Seicane s image. It didn't work. Than I've installed the 1024x600 Malaysk...and Hurray!! Now I'm configuring it. Hope this image is stable.

Thanks.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Marmalux:
Glad to hear it worked. Please remember to wype data in recovery menu after it installs (two times to be sure) beacuase this Rom resizes the system partition and you need to clear data from recovery. Otherwise it will boot but you will have problems with it.

Best regards!
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
I did it exactly like Malaysk said. 2 times and wiped data.

What was interesting: it didn't have Google navigation installed. I had to install it from Google Play.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
The noise when touching any button isnt a "problem" its a setting - in settings/sound you just uncheck the box that say sound on keypress.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
The problem was that the unit didn't "remember" that I unchecked the box. And the sound is annoying for me.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Ah, right, I ve not heard of that before, not remembering radio stations and the time, yes, but not forgetting the sound box is unchecked.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Yes. Anyway, it was real disappointment to see how their engineering team wasn't capable of making the difference between resolutions. 3 no updates with the same wrong resolution, after explaining them what is happening and after I sent them photos and videos with the problem. They kept assuring me that the problem is solved in the new update etc.

Good thing with Internet nowadays and people that use their time to help others.

Thanks.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
If youre referring to Seicane, then you werent speaking to an engineering team - Seicane are just a seller, selling Klyde units, you d have to speak to Klyde if you wanted to speak to the hardware engineering team (find them on Alibaba) or MTC if you want to speak to the software engineering team, but no one knows anything about them other than their name, its long been rumoured that theyre based in India.

Latest updates for MTCB units are on the fileserver (see my signature) listed by resolution and processor type.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
It seems that I need to ask you again about the unit.

Yesterday I was looking to find how to have as default the Music app from android for the music files on an USB. Currently, the mp3's from usb open only with ES File Explorer app. And it doesn't play the folder, only one melody at a time.

Looking through the settings I found "Do not show the icon on boot". I activated the setting.

Next morning, the unit started as usual, BUT the screen is not responsive to touch. I rebooted...same problem. I entered the boot menu and chose to wipe data and clear cache...same problem.

It shows everything on the screen: all the icons, it shows the speed of the car in the Circle, it show how it connects to Wi-Fi, to GPS etc. It just doesn't respond to touch and I can't access anything.

Before I go with full re-flashing of the unit, I'm asking if anyone has had this problem with Malaysk image.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
I would suggest that your USB drive is not showing up in filemanager for some reason and thats why the built in music player isnt playing them, what USB port are you using ?

Connect a mouse to the front USB and you ll be able to access stuff, do a factory reset and see if that brings back your screen, when was the last time you updated your MCU ? what MCU are you on now ?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
I've never changed the MCU (MTCB-KLD2-V2.81). The only thing I did was to flash a new image from Malaysk that solved the resolution problem. And it work very well until I changed that setting yesterday.

If I use the File Manager app I can see the USb and the mp3 in it. Just when choose to play them it just plays the file chosen with ES File Explorer and not with Music app. Looking through settings, I found somewhere to choose the app for media player and it was Music. But the unit just didn't want to play the mp3's with it.

After wipe/clear data from boot menu it didn't restart with the Car Mode launcher but with the launcher that has 2 rectangles on Home page (1 with speed and 1 with the date).

It seems odd that everything works (show speed, shows connection, it even appear a message to rate the app), but I can't do anything as the touch doesn't work.

I'm hoping it's not hardware (touch screen), but software.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Update your MCU to the latest version.

Theres a choice of 4 launchers with Malaysk's ROM.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
My MCU is from 25 October 2015. In the server files from your signature I found the last one from 15 Feb 2015.

I know there are more launchers to choose from. And initially I chose the one with Circle and the list of app shortcuts in the centre.

I'll re-install the ROM again to see if it's solving the "untouchable" screen.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Try the MCU first, October is way out of date, your ll need a more up to date one with Lollipop :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3246386
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Marmalux:
I do not quite understand you're issue.

If you swipe from left to right (in music app) your USB drive is showing up?

Or, you can see files in music app but they are not play-able?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
1st problem was the music: mp3 files from usb were getting opened only with ES File Explorer. Music app didn't open them automatically. I opened Music app and tried to upload the music in a playlist but I couldn't find how to do it. So, my idea was that if I change the default app that plays mp3 files (because I was thinking that maybe it is not Music app the default one) to Music app, than the mp3 files will be automatically played by the Music app. While I was checking this setting, I found another setting that said "Remove icon from boot" or something similar. And I ticked it. After that the screen was non-responsive. ... which was the 2nd problem.

Today I flashed the last ROM from Seicane. It reversed back to the small screen (800x400), BUT now I have a responsive screen. Everything works- at least I'm happy that the unit doesn't have a hardware problem.

I am going now to flash the Malaysk ROM again, so I can have the 1024x600 screen.

For me it seems a bit complicated this Malaysk version. It looks nice, but I like things simple and reliable. Somewhere on this forum I found somebody talking about "Bondooroc" (??????) ROM. I can't find anymore as I can't remember the correct name. Is it better than Malaysk?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Marmalux:
Actually i have also some issues with Malaysk Rom (although i like it complicated). My biggest issue is that even though i can access factory settings, i cannot apply anything (exit button also does nothing).

The idea is that i did not had / have / will have time to try or to customize the rom (my wife is now the main user of my car....), therefore i will try to get a stock 5.1.1 to flash (most probably without root). I now realize that having a custom and rooted rom is good on a phone, but on a HU i use only several functions (music, navi, reverse camera, BT.....) and a stock has it all and much more stable.

What would be really interesting is a custom MCU image :D.

Take a look HERE , you can get the version of stock (and custom also) firmware for any device.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
It' s all back to normal. Still don't know how to import music in Music app(stock android app). At the moment I'm using Jetaudio that was pre-installed.

The thing is, whem I push the button on the wheel that changes between radio, dvd, music etc....it automatically goes to Music app, not Jetaudio.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
I have 2 and a half years experience with these units and I strongly suggested that it was an MCU problem and that you flash a later MCU because the ROM you flashed is far newer than your MCU so it wont work properly. You chose to ignore me. Try booroondook's and your ll likely have the same or similar problems, oh well, I ll let you get on with it as you know best.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Dear typos1

Don't get upset. I am trying to avoid to do too many modifications. MCU is a very important "part" of the Hu. If I mess it up, I have to loose time by trying to recover the bricked unit etc. Do you think Seicane is going to send me the original Mcu once I tampered with the unit?

I was looking to the thread with the new versions of Mcu and I saw that KLD2 is 2.81. I have the same version installed now.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] Marmalux:
In music app just swipe screen from left to right and choose the propper storage device you wish to play from. [MENTION=456516]typos1[/MENTION] i know this is a nood recomandation, but i have had same issue; by default music app searches for music in SD-card, and it took me a while to figure out how to switch to USB 2 :D. Maybe he has the same issue (since he has acces to the drive by other apps)....
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Yes. I found them. Swiping from left to right got me to the panel where I can choose the USB storage.

Thanks

Seicane HEad Unit S09042

Hi,

I am new to this site and I am a plumber by trade so please bear with me.

I recently bought a seicane S09042 DVD Sat Nav second hand in the hope of installing it in my camper conversion.

having very little experience in these I bought it without leads or sd cards for the firmware or gps.

I managed to get power to it with a kenwood lead and held in the SRC button and hit the reset button to my joy the VW logo appeared only to switch to the android screen where it stays wont go any further and does the same thing everytime I reset it.

I had posted in the wrong forum but I did get advice to hold in reset and volume in order to get it to go into recovery mode I am going to try that when I get home in a few hours

would you by any change know what firmware I require to get it functioning?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
As I ve said in this thread before - there are no "Seicane" units, Seicane are a seller and sell units made by several different manufacturers, thus we need to find out what unit you have, which you would normally do by looking at the settings/about device screen, which you cant do, so pictures of the front and back of the unit would help here.

Can you get into recovery ? Try this by putting a pin in the reset (rst) hole and holding down power for a few seconds, releasing power, then releasing reset, this should bring you to the recovery scree, a picture would help. Once weve established what unit you have we can either help you, if its MTCB/C or if it isnt at least try and direct you somewhere where you can get help.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
If a plug it in the screen is black but if i push the reset pin and hold SRC (source) i think this means which is probably the power button. It will then show a vw screen then it goes to a screen whivh says android but gets stuck there.

I tried to attach a few photos of the unti hopefully it worked
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Thanks for the pics, it could be an MTCB unit, but the pics dont confirm it 100%.

Forget the SRC button, follow the instructions I gave earlier - power is usually the left hand knob, if it isnt there should be "pow" or the generic on/off 1 inside a 0 graphic somewhere on the unit
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
I will try that when i get home at four and let you know. So which is the actual powrr button. Is it the knob on the left?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Oops, yes, the left, I said the right, my bad, edited.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
I tried the reset with the power button but it beeped and nothinghappend i have attached a video of the reset and src button

[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Forget the SRC button (unless it says power near it but I couldnt see that in the photos). Whats the top right button, brightness ?

Have you tried holding down the left knob and reset until it beeps, then releasing reset, then releasing power ? Thats how you get into recovery on MTCB/C versions.

Of course it could be an MTCD unit - on MTCD versions you hold down the left knob for 10 seconds, then press it again after 1 - 3 seconds, the lights should blink.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
Yes i tried the rigjt and left knob and reset but it just beeped the same as it does with just pressing reset on its own and the screen atayed blank i put a link showing what halppens with the src button just for reference.

I will try the other method ahould ipress reset and the power release reset then hold power/volume button for ten seconds release it then press it again afyer 3 seconds.

The reason i pressed src is because it lights up when i plug the power in to the unit.

Should i have the ignition turned to on when i am doing this.

Many thanks for your help

---------- Post added at 08:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 PM ----------

Top right is brightness it does not say on the unit which button is power i tried the sequence with the right and left knobs
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
If there is nothing saying power then I think its probably the left knob.

To try try the MTCD method forget about reset, press the left knob for 10 seconds, release then press again quickly within 1 - 3 seconds, try this with the SRC button instead of the left knob as well if you like.

The MTCB/C method hold down reset and power together, then release reset, then release power, you should hear 2 beeps.

You could always unscrew the top and take a picture of the inside, I ll be able to tell you whether its MTCB/C or MTCD, if its neither of those we can direct you to the Android head units general forum for more help. Probably quicker, cos if its not MTCB/C or MTCD then the recovery sequence may be entirely or slightly different either way your ll be wasting your time trying recovery sequences for MTC units if it isnt one.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
Please see attached pictures with the top removed.

I tried holding the button for ten seconds then let go and pressed again but to ne avail
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
I dont think it is MTC.

I forgot the DVD drive would be in the way, I can confirm 100% if you remove the DVD drive cos then I can see the motherboard, sorry about all this but its necessary to id it if you cant start the thing.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
Thought i might have to do that and im not very confident about removing it thats why i tried to take photos down the side of it.

I will have a go tomorrow

Would the attached specification tell you anything i got ot of the saicane website. The model is S09042
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
I ll try and search for it, but its really just a case of removing 4 screws and the dvd should lift out, there ll be a cable attaching it to the motherboard.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] franco1888:
I will have a go at it. Appreciate your help
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
I ve found it, its not MTC. Try opening a thread in the Android Headunits General section and seeing if anyone knows.

Add this link to it so they can see :

[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Ok, I think you missed my post above yesterday, its deffo not MTC to the best of my knowledge, try the Android heda units general forum, all those pics should help someone identify it for you.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Hi. As per my first post in this thread the unit is: Seicane/ MTCB-KLD2-V2.81/ARM Cortex-A9 [MENTION=1247388]1.6[/MENTION]GHz (x4)/ rk3188-eng4.4.4 28032016/Kernel root@chun#777.

I ve seen the latest MCU is KLD6 v2.85.

1. Is this a stable version of mcu? (there is a KLD9 revision I've seen)

2. Can I upgrade from KLD2?

3. Upgrading brings improvements? What kind?

4. The unit has only 16GB of NanFlash and 1GB of RAM. With this mcu and android 4.4.4 I have issues with installing new applications: not enough space.(especially Google maps and google services updates- I have tried installing different revisions : ended up with removing gmaps and installing waze.)

Going to new mcu and android 5.1 will affect drastically the space? Is 1GB enough memory for android 5?

5. I ve read some had problems with update 5.1.1 FUSE 1024x600 RK3188 06 MAL 30.10.2016 MTCB.

Is there other revision more stable to update to Android5.1 for my unit? Do I need to change mcu for better performance/stability if I want to upgrade to Androis 5.1?

Regards
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
I found the KLD2B revision 2.81. Is this an improved KLD2 mcu?
[MTCB Android Head Units General] typos1:
Your unit is a KLD unit, Seicane are just a seller.

You can try KLD6 and KLD9 MCUs, but I have heard of some people having problems with these in KLD2 units, just try and see.

All MCUs are "stable".

All custom ROMs have more than1Gb for apps, the best and fastest is [MENTION=5228031]Johny DJ[/MENTION]'s microG ROM.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Yes. Klyde unit, not Seicane. I just copied info from first post.

But do they bring improvements like speed, reliability/stability, memory optimisation etc? Or just new features.
[MTCB Android Head Units General] BogdanFP:
Ok. I ve installed today the Rom with FUSE android 5 from Malaysk. It helped: I couldn't install Google maps in android 4.4.4. Now, I can. No more "not enough space" and "failure to update google play services" errors. Hopefully, no bugs and no future errors.
